Chapter 224: Public Trial
Above the main hall, the ministers whispered.
Yang Shan's face was secretly proud, and he wanted to rely on these few rural mud legs to turn over eucalyptus and dream!
If you talk about eloquence, let alone a rural woman, even if everyone present is combined, she will not necessarily fall into disadvantage.
At the beginning, Tang Xinggu used his own strength to fight the Confucians, and this was just an ordinary imperial history under his own hands.
As for the Zhang family who fell in a pool of blood, in his eyes, he was just as lowly as an ant.
Zhu Qizhen on the dragon chair seemed to have a layer of frost on his face.
He never imagined that this woman would be so chaste and fierce that she would prove her innocence by death.
It happened so suddenly that it wasn't even too late to stop it.
What made him even more chilling was that all the officials present, except for Tang Xinggu and a few people who showed concern for the Zhang family on the ground, were even more indifferent.
It is a disregard for life.
I think that at the beginning, when I saw those innocent people being killed by the enemy, I only felt angry, and with enthusiasm, I directly chose to go out of the city to face the battle.
Nowadays, these ministers and gentlemen who are well-dressed and well-fed keep saying that they love the people like children and are sympathetic to the people, but when a fresh life falls under their feet, they choose to turn a blind eye.
Zhu Qizhen only felt a wave of anger rising from his heart and rushing straight to his head.
He really wanted to give an order to pull Yang Shan's dog out and cut it with a knife to pay for the poor woman's life.
But he couldn't.
Yan Shenggong's defeat was the last counterattack of the Wenchen clique, and if they wanted to implement the new policy, their plan must be completely smashed, and there could be no room for it.
If you intervene forcibly, then all the previous efforts will be in vain.
If you want to win this battle, you must win it openly, and it is better to kill than to punish your heart!
Thinking of this, he forcibly held back the anger in his heart and said, "Huai'en, send the person to the Tai Hospital and order him to heal with all his might!" ”
Before Huai En could answer, Yang Shan said: "Emperor Qi, this woman does not observe Women's Day, and is suspected of false accusations, seeing that the matter is exposed, she commits suicide in fear of crime, and the minister thinks it is ......."
Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Zhu Qizhen gritted his teeth and said, "I said, send it to the hospital!" ”
Yang Shan frowned and said, "Your Majesty ......"
Zhu Qizhen was furious: "Stop! ”
Yang Shan still wanted to fight, but when he saw the killing intent in Zhu Qizhen's eyes, he subconsciously swallowed back the words on his lips.
He suddenly realized that the situation did not seem to be as rosy as he had imagined.
Huaien walked down and beckoned the two little eunuchs to step forward and take Zhang to the Tai Hospital.
Zhu Qizhen took a deep breath, and then said, "I heard that the Three Law Divisions are preparing to make a final judgment on the Holy Prince? ”
Yu Shiyue, the secretary of the Criminal Department, stepped forward and said: "Back to the emperor, exactly!" ”
He, like Yang Shan, has already been prepared, and since he has decided, this moment must be faced.
After the implementation of the new policy, it is tantamount to a new day of sun and moon, and the advantages that I have worked hard to accumulate over the past few generations will be gone.
If you don't fight hard at this time, there will be no hope in the future.
Zhu Qizhen tried to suppress the anger in his heart and asked, "During the trial, the people have been allowed to visit this eucalyptus?" ”
Yu Shiyue thought for a while and said, "Justice is in the hearts of the people!" ”
"What a fair and comfortable heart!"
Zhu Qizhen sneered: "Isn't that Zhang family a human being?" ”
Yu Shiyue remained silent and said: "Among the people, there are also Diao people, Zhang's misbehavior and suspicion of framing, can not represent the people of the world." ”
"Tell me, who can represent?"
Yu Shiyue thought for a moment and said: "Those who have read the books of sages and sages, who are sensible, or who keep to themselves. ”
"You've read books, haven't you? Do you know how many schools there are in Wei County? How many children are enrolled in school? The Yansheng Gongfu is not familiar with education, so it wants to close the school in Wei County, who is it who doesn't know what's going on? ”
"As far as the minister knows, most of the professors in the Wei County School are sideways, even if there are more schools and more children enrolled, they are not reading sage books, and they don't know the reason. The Yansheng Mansion is responsible for the education of the world, and it should be rectified, which is a matter within the Yansheng Mansion. ”
Zhu Qizhen said again: "So, the evidence, witnesses, testimonies, and confessions that Jin Yiwei has collected these days, as well as the confessions of Kong Yanjin and others, the thieves, smugglers, and careless management of people's lives in the Yansheng Mansion, are also within their bounds? ”
"Back to the emperor, after a thorough investigation by the three law divisions, most of the eucalyptus sects provided by Jinyiwei were beaten into tricks. To say that the Yan Shenggong Mansion is a thief is really nothing. As for the sale of illicit salt and other eucalyptus, all of them were committed by the subordinates of the public government, and Kong Yanjin, the prince of Yansheng, did not know about it, and should be held responsible for negligence, so he could be ordered to strictly rectify the public government, and hand over the people involved to the criminal department for investigation and handling according to law. ”
Faced with the questioning of the Son of Heaven, Yu Shiyue was still unfazed.
Anyway, Jinyiwei's reputation has long been stinky, as long as I insist that it is a trick, whether the hundred officials and scholars in the world are willing to believe in the three law divisions or believe in Jinyiwei, the result is obvious.
Zhu Qizhen has completely lost patience, and in the face of such a group of guys who only think about their own interests, he has no feelings at all.
History is like a knife, their biggest advantage is that they have the right to speak in the world, and they can even refer to the deer as a horse and confuse black and white.
So, let's wrap it up!
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks it's ......"
Tang Xinggu saw that the emperor was deflated, and was about to step forward to fight with his words, but saw that the emperor waved his hand at him.
He was shocked, this was clearly a trap, and the three law divisions were to provoke the emperor in the name of Bo Zhong's death.
If the emperor orders the court staff at this time, or forcibly interferes with the eucalyptus situation, it will really lose!
Even if Yan Shenggong is convicted, millions of scholars in the world will not be convinced, they will think that you are a faint king, and follow Yu Shiyue's direct advice, even if you are beaten to death, they will never get tired of it.
This is Wenchen Qingliu's routine, once upon a time, he himself was one of them, and he knew the doorway inside best.
The game of monarchs and ministers is far from being as simple as it seems.
However, the emperor was not as angry as he imagined, but said very calmly: "Presumably many people are interested in coming to see the final verdict of Yan Shenggong Yiyi, your criminal department yamen is still a little small, and the capacity is limited, so it's better to set up a temporary torture hall outside the noon gate, Cao Qing's house!" ”
Cao Nai hurriedly responded: "The minister is here!" ”
"The cabinet will take the lead and select some representatives from the yamen of various ministries to form a jury panel, and I am among them, but the jury can only be seen from the sidelines and cannot interfere in the trial of the three legal divisions."
Cao Nai was a little confused, so he had to reply: "The minister obeys the order!" ”
Zhu Qizhen said again: "Spread the decree to Shuntianfu, maintain order in the city, if the people in the city, if they come to watch the trial, no matter what their status, they must not be stopped, what does the Yu Qing family think?" ”
Yu Shiyue frowned, thinking secretly in her heart, it seems that the emperor is preparing to let ordinary people come to watch the trial.
In the previous interrogation stage, although it was open to the people, more of those who came to watch the trial were scholars.
As for those mud legs, can they still affect the trend of eucalyptus?
As long as you, the emperor, don't interfere by force, the three law divisions will definitely be able to turn the eucalyptus over!
He secretly made up his mind in his heart and replied: "The minister obeys the order!" ”

ps: Some friends saw some plots similar to "Quanchen", and thought they had guessed the plot trend?
Just kidding, how could I possibly let you guess......
As for spraying my code words slowly, well, it's really slow, just spray it......
There are about 10,000 words left in this volume, and the next volume will open a new plot, striving for 6,000 a day.
When the time comes, if I can't do it, then I'll say it again......
