Chapter 628: Not consistent
Zhu Changjue always kept his eyes on the imperial study in the palace.
There is an elder who is secretly on his side. Although he knows that there is little hope, he still hopes that things will not deteriorate and even turn around.
However, news of the Imperial Study soon spread.
Shuntianfu was integrated into the imperial case, and the accusations and evidence involving King Jue were all covered with the imperial case, if they were stacked, at least two or three people were high, and the adults were secretly speechless, and the emperor's eyebrows were jumping.
The number of charges that have already been conclusively concluded and those who are collecting witness evidence has reached more than 130. Among them, there are more than 50 cases in which King Jue is considered the main defendant. It's scary.
In this situation, not to mention a pavilion elder, even two or three people who are Zhu Changjue, they have no way to start in front of this pile of things. You can argue one or two, can you still argue one or twenty?
The Emperor sighed.
Of course, he knew that the evidence of these crimes did not rule out that the eldest son had been framed by someone, but even if only one-fifth of the charges were true, this son was also extremely guilty.
At present, Yin Zheng of Shuntianfu singled out a bunch of accusations against Hui, saying that there were witnesses, but there was a lack of direct physical evidence. pointed to this pile and that pile, saying that if the person in charge was not arraigned, the progress of the case would not be raised......
The Emperor understood. He paced a few steps, but finally made up his mind.
"Then do it! Spread the word to me, and the Jue Wangfu fully cooperated with the investigation. From the master to the slave, from the account room to the treasury, there is no prevarication if it is necessary to collect evidence. Those who obstruct the process of handling the case and destroy evidence to control witnesses, regardless of identity or reason, will be taken down first! ”
When an attendant brought this oracle to King Jue's mansion, Zhu Changjue collapsed a little.
In his opinion, the emperor did not even leave him the last dignity. He even had to hand over the keys to his own house, which undoubtedly stripped him of everything inside and out.
Obviously, the emperor is going to give up on him completely!
Zhu Changjue's stomach was full of grievances and grievances.
He decided to make one last effort, one last time!
He asked to see the emperor.
He asked someone to deliver the message three times in a row, but all of them were refused. The emperor doesn't see him!
He finally sneered.
What father and son! How indifferent!
The palace can't be saved, is it just waiting for him to become a prisoner, waiting for everyone to slap him in the face, lose his face, and step on his dignity?
He was forced!
……
The emperor at the moment is contradictory.
He not only wanted to figure out all the causes and effects, and found out all the guys who endangered his imperial power, but he was also afraid that things would be too big and the result would be after the turmoil.
Not only was he afraid that he would involve too many people, but he was also worried that the prestige of the royal family and the imperial court would be harmed after the poisonous sores were broken, and that future generations would think that his power was so corrupt, which not only affected the people's prestige of the imperial court, but also affected the evaluation of him by future generations.
In addition, a few days later, he had already smelled that the princelings were launching the most violent attack on King Jue. In fact, in a certain sense, King Jue's power was his own acquiescence to strengthen the group of old ministers led by the princelings and the Xiao family. If he completely destroys King Jue's faction, won't the crown prince be the only one? At that point, will he do it again against the princelings?
How to control that scale, he has a headache.
On this matter, he had already confessed and discussed it with Li Chun a few days ago.
But Li Chun only let him not worry.
He didn't know where Li Chun had confidence, but when he saw Li Chun's vow, he chose to trust.
Zhu Changjue didn't know that after the emperor dispersed in the imperial study, he still privately asked Shuntianfu Yin to tell two sentences:
"There is no rush to start the trial. No matter how late you are, you have to enter the palace once a day and report to me privately on the progress of the investigation and evidence collection. ”
Shuntianfu Yin also understood.
Although on the surface, the emperor put on a strict attitude of trial, a fair position, and also arranged for the clan and the Imperial Procuratorate to participate, but the ultimate trend of the incident, the conclusion and sentence, the emperor still does not intend to fake others, he wants to regulate himself......
That means that the final fate of King Jue is still in the emperor's thoughts.
In fact, the emperor has such a strange psychology, Cheng Ziyu has already guessed it.
The higher the position, the more scrutiny there is. It is too difficult to completely send Zhu Changjue to a dead end. That's why she went around in such a big circle, and she had already counted the emperor in it......
The net is about to be closed.
In the General's Mansion, Li Chun was almost so stuffy that he was going crazy. For more than 20 years, the most idle, boring and boring thing is these days.
He has to "hold on to illness" and create an illusion of going down to the south of the Yangtze River. So he couldn't go out at all for the past two days, and it was even inconvenient for him to wander around the house.
Even the little fun of the evening was denied.
Cheng Ziyu is so busy every day that she can't see anyone, and her injuries are not yet healed, and she is tired and collapsed in bed at night, where can he bear to disturb her again.
So what he can do every day is to drink in the house, dance the sword, drink, dance the sword, sleep, and dance the sword......
Fortunately, Zhu Changjue's various behaviors show that the effect of his "disappearance" is very good. The other party has lost his sense of proportion.
Another night passed.
The sky was bright, there was movement outside the window, Li Chun tumbled down, and flashed out of the house in an instant.
His movements were already extremely light, but even so, he still woke up Cheng Ziyu, who was sleeping very lightly.
She got up and hurriedly began to put on her clothes.
As soon as she tied her clothes, Li Chun had already returned, looking at her calmly.
Cheng Ziyu's heart went up and down, "Say it quickly." Something happened. ”
Li Chun directly took the person into his arms and hugged him tightly.
"Run! Zhu Changjue, run away! ”
Cheng Ziyu was slightly stunned, and then her heart turned a thousand times.
Ran away? The consequence of Zhu Changjue's "running away" was not in her prediction.
"Silly?" Li Chun stretched out his hand and swiped it in front of her eyes.
Cheng Ziyu finally burst out laughing, and then began to laugh out loud, laughing so much that tears came out of her eyes.
Run, then he has nothing to do with orthodoxy at all. has nothing to do with the throne, and even the identity of the prince is in danger.
If he runs away, then he is equivalent to indirectly admitting his crime, and he is weak in heart and does not dare to accept the trial, so he will run. Many charges and even evidence do not need to be collected.
Run, this process, must be tragic but will pull people's backs and cause damage, just this behavior is enough for him to never turn over.
Run, she had never liked the word so much.
The hatred of private salt, the hatred of red jade, the hatred of breaking up the Cheng family, the hatred of encroaching on the Cheng family, the burden of the past life and this life, can finally be broken. and Gui'er, who is still in a coma, can be regarded as having an explanation......
Li Chun knew her psychology, hugged her face, and kissed her on the forehead a few times.
"There's chaos outside, and if you want to know, you can recruit someone to ask. I have to secretly dispatch Jingwei to arrest people, and I can't stay here. You stay safe. ”
"Go ahead!" Cheng Ziyu came to her senses and quickly got him a coat. "If he runs away like this, Jingwei won't be responsible, right?"
"Rest assured. I'm measured. ”
Seeing Li Chun leave, Cheng Ziyu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
In the past year or so, the lightest moment in my heart is now.
She, after she guessed Zhu Changjue's actions to the Cheng family from the Southern Tour, she has been thinking about how to fight him!
It's so hard!
In his previous life, the prince spent so many years with him, and the prince folded himself into it and failed to defeat him! From her death in her previous life, Zhu Changjue was not completely finished, and she was still struggling!
How difficult this man is!
From the morning, Cheng Ziyu found that Zhu Changjue did not leak anything, and he did not leave a handle on the aftermath. But if there is no evidence, how can you fight? It's a hard one!
There is another difficulty, that is, the emperor. Although the emperor is ruthless to outsiders and has little love for his son, he is a calf protector and a face-saving man. Cheng Ziyu participated in the battle for the heir in the previous life, but the ending of the princes was not miserable. To his sons, the emperor was merciful. At least he saved the face of his sons, just like the crown prince, and in the end he only got a detention.
But Cheng Ziyu was unwilling.
If the world is turned upside down, and the loser is still prosperous and rich for a lifetime, but there is no need to pay the price, then what is the point of her winning?
Especially Zhu Changjue is still a wicked person who has done many evils and committed enough crimes to die hundreds of times.
Even if he put aside his previous life, the time he framed the Prince's Mansion and the fake assassination in this life, the human lives he carried on him would accumulate hundreds. Such people must be severely punished.
And he is more terrible than the crown prince. The scheming is terrifying, and the forces in the shadows are even more rampant. Even if such a person is detained, who knows if he will come back one day?
Therefore, Cheng Ziyu has been thinking, is there any way to completely send Zhu Changjue to hell? Of course, the premise is, what else has to be done to catch him?
And that handle must be that even the emperor can't bear it, doesn't want to bear it, can't bear it, and the emperor takes the initiative to ask for severe punishment?
Threatening the imperial power? No, that would only make the emperor nervous, but it would not make the emperor ruthless.
Throughout the ages, there is only one thing that will make all emperors jealous, afraid, and unbearable. That's rebellion!
And just then, Zhu Changjue has two actions that can be charged with rebellion.
First, it is the private salt that shakes the foundation of the country throughout the ages, and the punishment of the imperial court for the illegal salt is severe in all dynasties, which is shaken from the inside out.
Second, it was the assassination of Zhenjiang. Cheng Ziyu had memories of his past life, and guessed that it was fake, but the emperor might not think so. This can be seen from the emperor's repeated tolerance of Zhu Changan. In the emperor's heart, Zhu Changan saved his life. So even Bai Heng's help should be given to Zhu Si......
If it is exposed, the real culprit of the assassination is Zhu Changjue...... The sons were all killed, and Lao Tzu finally escaped death, but he was used to blame other sons, and the emperor's anger and grievances can be imagined.
Only when he sees that his son's crime is treason, the emperor who spares his life will not tolerate it!
However, Cheng Ziyu is good, but she has no evidence.
Zhu Changjue's hands and feet are too clean.
If there is evidence of private salt, Li Chun should have found out when the Gao family had an accident that day, and Li Chun put his hand in. But Li Chun sent people to follow him all the way to the capital that day, but he couldn't find out that he was the mastermind, which shows that he cleaned up the aftermath.
The same goes for assassinations. If there was really evidence, Bai Heng would have found it out that day. Where is it today? If there is evidence, Cheng Ziyu would have played the cards a long time ago, why is it today?
In fact, not to mention these two cases, it is Xue Jun, the Su family, and everything else, and she can't find any evidence.
Because of this, Cheng Ziyu was willing to contact Wei Hong, so she locked her first shot on the concubine, and she won Ruyi in the first place before Zhu Changjue had her hands free to deal with Ruyi...... At that time, she thought, perhaps, only from the people around him can find flaws and breakthroughs.
But even if Ruyi's confession is very accurate, even if Xia Weijia sent a large number of people to secretly investigate thoroughly, it is still a pity that there is witness evidence, but there is no direct witness evidence.
Just like murder, although there are eyewitnesses, there is neither the murder weapon nor any trace of him at the scene, and even if he has an alibi, how can such an accusation be established?
For this reason, Cheng Ziyu was very troubled.
Later, she thought that if she really wanted to hold Zhu Changjue, maybe there was only one way to let him expose his shortcomings. Let him jump into the pit by himself, let him throw himself into the net.
It just so happened that on the day of the Queen Mother's banquet, Zhu Changjue's plan was shattered, and the scene immediately controlled the embarrassing existence of Xiong Guiren, who Zhu Changjue failed to extinguish at the first time.
After a long time of luring the snake out of the hole, Zhu Changjue threw herself into the net, and finally found a breakthrough in her plan.
With the opening of the Xiong family, Zhu Changjue's tight shell finally has a place to tear apart.
The conclusive evidence coupled with the appropriate planting finally made Zhu Changjue nervous. After cooperating with the incitement of public opinion, that mouth was like being sprinkled with a handful of salt, and it was hot and painful.
After that, wave after wave of charges struck, which really made Zhu Changjue break out in a cold sweat.
But he has been controlled, but he is afraid that he will never know, in fact, except for the first few charges, the more he raises in the future, the more he has no real evidence.
This is the reason why after the so-called "thorough investigation order", Shuntianfu announced that it would conduct a thorough investigation first, collect charges, criminal evidence, testimony, and then the last public trial, just because this was originally just a thunderous and rainy step, used to wait for Zhu Changjue to enter the net.
However, on the first day of the public trial in Shuntianfu, whether it was the lineup in the hall comparable to the trial of the three divisions, or the crowds of people behind him demanding severe punishment, or the obvious absurdity in the court, but he could not refute the planting, the facts have already left a shadow in his heart.
When the accusations got worse day by day, little by little, and the voices of the court and the people became louder and louder, the fact that Zhu Changjue's mood had been affected.
He has a weak heart, so he will naturally think about it, he will naturally be afraid of being caught with pigtails, and he is also worried that when he has no control, some people will be like Ruyi, and he is even more worried that he will continue to be framed but unable to deal with it.
The burden gradually increased, and then there was the attitude of the emperor, the family that took refuge in him was suppressed one after another, the increasingly tight environment of the Jue Wangfu, the whereabouts of Li Chun, Zhu Changzhe and others, especially the unfavorable news from Jiangnan, actually overwhelmed him.
Facts have proved that Zhu Changjue also thought that this was to use the word "rebellion" to send him to a dead end.
It was the consequences that he could not afford, so he was afraid.
He was afraid that if he didn't deal with it, he would be finished!
Zhu Changjue was really fooled. He took his own seat.
He guessed that the living people who appeared in Jiangnan, the specious stalking, the abnormality of the Wang family, Kang Anbo's activities and Zhu Changjue's abnormality were all directed at him, but he didn't know that those people were just bluffing, in order to lure him into the bait. is to expose him, let him take risks, and let him never recover......
Wei Hong's inquiry, the conversation between Wang and Cheng Ziyu, and the emperor's order to start moving the Jue Palace, all of which together became the last force that forced him to the point of no return.
Cheng Ziyu's original plan was to make him desperate, and after dying and struggling, he would be convicted of "rebellion". But he actually ran away.
This point is not consistent with Cheng Ziyu's original idea.
