Chapter 375: It's Time to Do It (Second Update)
The matter and the imperial history are Qingliu officials, a bit like the 'prison army' in the ministries, specifically responsible for supervising some untimely things in the ministry, and even they have the right to refute the edict, if there is something in the holy decree that is not right, it can be directly sealed and returned, and it will not be implemented, so although it is the same as the imperial history, most of them are young people, and the grade is not high, but the authority is not small.
Even, some scholars were also invited, everyone gathered together, there were sixty-seven people, the momentum was huge, and when they arrived at the main hall of the official department, they saw Wang Hua sitting here at this time, he showed a calm appearance, and his expression was beyond everyone's expectations.
Who doesn't know, that Ye Chunqiu is your Wang Hua's son-in-law and protΓ©gΓ©, this is the relationship between relatives and relatives, who doesn't know, now this Ye Chunqiu is involved in the fraud of the imperial examination, once he is convicted, he will die without a place to be buried, and at worst, his head will fall to the ground, and at the lightest he will be a student who has been cut for the people, and even demoted to a small official.
At this time, the prince should have been very impatient, but now, the prince actually smiled and said, "Ah...... I would like to invite you to come, because there is something to tell you, oh, you don't have to be polite, you don't have to be polite. β
But seeing this abnormal Wang Butang, many people began to doubt life, saying, Wang Butang, your closed disciple and son-in-law is about to finish, why are you still so kind, are you really not in a hurry at all?
"Come, please, it's just for a little thing, oh, there's something here, old man, please take a look, huh...... Just look at it......"
Wang Hua is still smiling, with a hint of depth in his eyes, this old bone is very aggrieved, in the past, he was in the ascendant, who expected that he would be demoted to Nanjing because he offended Liu Jin, and his son also offended the adulterer and went to Guizhou, and now this son-in-law is like this again.
I can't swallow this breath.
This old bone has lived for so many years, and he has long seen through the various states in the world, and now, he can't bear it, no need to endure it anymore!
In the cloudy old eyes, there was a trace of determination......
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Yundelou in the inner city of Nanjing, one of the best tea shops in the neighborhood, is where many scholars come to drink tea, but today, there is very little business here, and it seems to be particularly deserted.
The owner of the teahouse naturally couldn't help but complain, not because of the trial, but the readers ran away, but now it's good, no one comes to drink tea.
Thinking of the fraud in the imperial examination, the proprietor can't help but feel sorry, there is a lot of news in the tea shop every day, at first everyone identified Ye Chunqiu's fraud, and then the voice of questioning appeared, anyway, it is difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood, but I heard that Ye Chunqiu is a real talent, but I don't know why I have to cheat, I don't know if it is an unjust case.
But after all, this is something that has nothing to do with me, I think that at the beginning, it was also in Nanjing, in the twelve years of Hongzhi, Xu Jing and Tang Yin, wouldn't they also be talented, and finally ......
To the astonishment of the owner of this teahouse, at this time, there were many uninvited guests.
These people wearing scarves came from the dust, and then asked for a few private rooms, but the owner didn't recognize it, and only heard that it was called Uncle Ye Shi.
In addition to Ye Jing, there are also Chen Rong and Zhang Jin, and many students from Ningbo also came, including lifters, talents, and some local fellow villagers.
Entering the elegant room, Ye Jing looked very excited, he suddenly found that he had an extra burden on his shoulders, and his son was in a catastrophe, and he had to save him, so he gritted his teeth and didn't wait for the guy to bring tea, just sat patiently and waited.
After a while, someone hurried in and said happily: "Here, something is here." β
Call...... Ye Jing took a deep breath, then stood up, looking at each of his fellow villagers, he groaned for a long, long time, and suddenly, he fell to his knees.
This sudden move frightened everyone, Ye Jing is a jinshi, although he is only a top three, and for many people here, they are still Ye Jing's juniors.
Chen Rong hurriedly stepped forward and picked Ye Jing up.
Ye Jing solemnly kowtowed: "Spring and Autumn is unfortunate, when I meet my unproductive father, a catastrophe is coming today, if you can get through the difficulties, then the wealth is in front of you, but if you can't pass this ghost doorway, then there is no place to die, I, the father, have too many useless places, I can't worry about it, but often make him suffer, today are my fellow villagers, friends, relatives and friends of Spring and Autumn Period, everyone is willing to contribute to Spring and Autumn, I Ye Jing is grateful, so please accept my worship, thank you." β
Zhang Jin and Chen Rong helped him up, and Zhang Jin said: "Uncle Shi, what does this mean, Spring and Autumn are also our brothers, and it is natural to contribute, Uncle Shi, the time has come, it's time to do it." β
Ye Jing nodded, with a bit of resoluteness in his eyes, he muttered: "Yes, it's time to do it, you have to work, everyone, follow me to the Tribute Courtyard!" β
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
The trial continues.
However, at this time, the balance of victory has completely tilted in favor of Wang Hong, to a certain extent, today's trial has been prepared for a long time, although there are a few twists and turns in the middle, but this is obviously harmless.
At this time, He Mao began to state his 'guilt': "Yes, it is Ye Chunqiu who the criminal official asked He Shuijin to find, after finding Ye Chunqiu, Ye Chunqiu gave five hundred taels of silver, and the court entrusted me with a heavy trust, I was so mad that I really died, today, the criminal official repented, I ...... I...... The criminal deserves to be punished, and would rather die quickly......"
His voice trembled when he spoke of quick death.
Now, he has no way out, Jinyiwei's methods have made him desperate to survive, and all he can think about now is how to die as quickly as possible. Let alone...... I have a few sons and grandchildren, if ...... If they refuse to comply, these scoundrels will do anything.
There was only fear left in his eyes, just thinking that the court would immediately discuss the crime, he didn't dare to look at Ye Chunqiu, maybe because of guilt, or out of something else, he kept pouring many charges against himself, and even at this moment, he was a little unbelievable, and if he couldn't ask for it, he would be arrested and punished now.
"Everything...... It's all Ye Chunqiu and the criminal official......"
The people watching the trial have already discussed a lot and become more and more excited, in fact, at this point, everyone knows that the case has been decided, Ye Chunqiu...... It's dead.
"Alright, that's enough!" Wang Hong finally interrupted He Mao's confession, but his face was extremely satisfied.
