Zhu Qizhen was still silent, his expression extremely calm.

It's just that now, this calmness has turned into indifference in the eyes of others.

The dignified criminal department is still in the book, and it's over when it's finished!

Yang Shan, the imperial history of the left capital, was also forced into a desperate situation, if he was in normal times, he could still maneuver one or two, but today, in front of the officials and the people, there is no way out.

"Your Majesty, the old minister has been wronged!"

Yang Shanlao was in tears and miserable, but he didn't get any response.

Zhu Qiyu was about to interrupt the interrogation several times, but seeing that Zhu Qizhen was not moving, he had to sigh secretly.

In his opinion, it is too much to treat the ministers of the six ministries and nine secretaries like this.

Even if these people are greedy for money, they can be lightly punished by the merits and hard work they have worked on over the years, at least ...... You should not be humiliated in front of everyone......

These are the scholars, and they are the most accomplished among the scholars.

Seeing them humiliated in public, what will the world's officials think? What will tens of thousands of readers in the world think?

Monarchs and ministers are separated from morality, how can the court be stable?

However, whenever he mustered up the courage and was about to stand up, when he saw Zhu Qizhen's cold, emotionless eyes, he couldn't help but swallow back what he was about to say.

It's a murderous look!

When the emperor sat here, the monarch and ministers had completely torn their faces.

He reluctantly remembered what the emperor had said to him before, those new and advanced consciousnesses, and those ...... that were contrary to his own cognition The Theory of Monarchs and Ministers......

Just imagine, if today, these people do not die, what will happen to them?

They were determined to unite against the new policy, and at that time, the monarch and ministers were still detached, and it was even possible that the emperor's decree could not leave the Forbidden City!

At this time, I remembered a sentence that the emperor often asked, what would I do if I were myself......

I have this determination...... Killer pain?

Yang Shan begged bitterly, miserable, but Yuan Bin had no intention of sparing him.

"Since you keep talking about the ancestral system, Emperor Taizu's edict clearly states that if an official embezzles more than sixty taels of silver, it is directly a capital crime. In addition, Emperor Taizu also specifically emphasized that up to Zhongshu Province and the Six Ministries, down to the local prefectures and counties, no matter who it is, once it is found, it will not be tolerated. Anyone who commits a crime shall be punished according to the amount of bribes he has embezzled, and shall be punished with such punishments as Ling Chi, castration, and clan, and in addition, in order to prevent corrupt officials from harming the people, different corrupt officials shall be punished with criminal laws such as skinning and straw, picking tendons, cutting off fingers, cutting off hands, and cutting off knees. I don't know if Lord Yang is enough to kill the standard, if it is more than sixty taels, he may have to Ling Chi, or peel the skin and fill the grass, or even the Zhu clan. This is the law of the ancestors, Lord Yang, what else do you have to say?"

After Yang Shan heard this, his face had changed greatly, he looked at the eyes that were eager to kill him, and subconsciously looked at the people outside, showing a pitiful expression.

The emperor can't count on it, and the people, the notoriety of the brocade guard eagle dog has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, if it gets the support of the people, maybe ......

But once again, he was disappointed, and the people looked at him without the slightest sympathy.

At this moment, he suddenly realized something.

Although the people have a natural mentality of sympathy for the weak, they hate corrupt officials even more, and on weekdays, he, the imperial history of the left capital, is a good official who serves justice for people, but once this layer of window paper is pierced, it will be completely different.

What's even more infuriating is that Jinyi Wei raided the house, and invited people to join him, so that people have no way to hide!

Moreover, Yuan Bin moved out of Emperor Taizu, which made these people suddenly change their positions.

Since you are innocent, why not check it out?

It seems that the people are very interested in this, and they are quite eager to try.

In March, the afternoon sun was very mild, but Yang Shan was soaked in cold sweat!

On weekdays, benevolence, righteousness and morality are often common, but they can be ...... in private But it's really ......

Yuan Bin said coldly, "Someone!"

"Yes!"

"Order, let the siege be

People outside Lord Yang's house, do it immediately! Of course, we are the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, representing the emperor's intentions, we must do things fairly, we must talk about evidence, and we must not wronged good people, so we must invite more people to witness with us!"

"Yes!"

Yang Shan was already shocked, he realized that he was finished, and hurriedly said, "Commander Yuan...... Be forgiving and forgiving......"

Mengdi, he reacted, and the emperor and others were watching from the sidelines!

When you say this, it means...... I have already admitted it......

Yuan Bin smiled at him, "Where did the money you got come from? In the final analysis, it is to oppress the people, and you want me to spare you, but those poor people, who will spare them? People like you have been powerful for so many years, and now the emperor is ready to implement a new policy, and if you are asked to give up some benefits, you can't bear it, but you still want to turn people over, if you are really some kind of two-sleeved and clean man, it's okay, but just like you, what can you give people to turn over?"

Yang Shan cried and said, "I...... I...... I can ......."

"It's late!"

Yuan Bin said: "Now that Jinyiwei has done it, I can't help you, if you copy out the dirty silver today, then, according to the ancestral system, how to punish the crime, how to punish the crime, if you can't copy the dirty silver, I, Yuan Bin, am willing to die to apologize!"

Yang Shan's face was defeated, and his body had softened.

Yuan Bin ignored him anymore, but turned around, and his eyes fell on Xue Xuan, the Qing of Dali Temple.

Xue Xuan was already shocked, and he was still sitting here just now, and he was interrogating the criminal department Shangshu and Zuodu Yushi together, but in a blink of an eye, there was no more!

Jinyi Wei ...... It's so ruthless!

Or, it should be said, the emperor is too ruthless!

Because Jinyiwei is the emperor's minions, they have no will of their own, no matter who they catch or bite, it is the emperor's will.

And now, finally, it's his turn.

Xue Xuan's eyes were cold, his face was guarded, and he looked at Yuan Bin vigilantly.

Yuan Bin stared at him for a moment, and then asked, "Lord Xue, do you want to continue the trial?"

Xue Xuan gritted his teeth, the three divisions were tried, and both of them had collapsed, so what kind of triage was the three divisions?

It's just that if this case is not tried, Yan Shenggong will fall into the hands of Jinyiwei and will inevitably die.

As a scholar, I have the responsibility to do my best to protect the bloodline of Sage Kong!

Next, Jin Yiwei will definitely continue to operate on himself, although he is not as good as the other two, it is really a clean breeze, but Jin Yiwei is not only a fair and honest means, but the dirty things behind his back are what they are good at.

Seeing his entangled expression, Yuan Bin smiled and said, "If Lord Xue turns back now, it's still too late."

However, these words aroused the anger in Xue Xuan's heart, and he stared at Yuan Bin tightly, and said word by word, "What is the official going back? It is the emperor's will to triage the three divisions, and of course this official must continue!"

Yuan Bin was stunned for a moment, and then said, "However, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department and the Imperial History of Zuodu have already ......."

"Then let the left servant of the criminal department and the right Yushi be on top!"

"Wang Wen, the right capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, is related to the smuggling of eucalyptus in Jiangnan, and is currently in the prison of the Criminal Department."

"The right capital is not there, there are also the left and right deputy capital of the imperial history, the left and right of the imperial history, the same reason, if the official is not there, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple is on top, if the Shaoqing of Dali Temple is not there, there is also the temple, the main book...... In short, there must be a result of the triage of the three divisions!"

In the face of Xue Xuan's toughness, Yuan Bin's face slowly sank, and after a while, he said, "Since Lord Xue is going to continue the trial, then listen to him, I am very busy now, I have to go to the house, and in the three law divisions, there are many corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and they are still waiting to be dealt with!"

After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked away with people.

Xue Xuan was stunned for a moment, only to feel like a dream, he thought that he would use some means on himself next!

Where did he think that Yuan Bin didn't seem to have any interest in giving him the black pot at all.

In fact, Yuan Bin had already checked him out.

But the question is...... I really can't find the problem!

Xue Xuan is an official, he is really upright, this person is upright, step by step, and promoted by virtue of his political achievements and merits.

He hated Jinyiwei because he couldn't get used to Jinyiwei's high-flying and domineering, as well as the vicious methods of treating scholars!

But now, thinking back to the two people around Fang Cai, I can't help but feel a little nauseous.

It's a shame to be in the company of such a person!

Syllable!

He was annoyed in his heart, slapped the shocked wood hard, and shouted: "Today, the three law divisions tried Yan Shenggong's case, and the result has already been reached, if you have any objections, say it quickly, if not, this official will be sentenced as such!"

In fact, he also knew that Yan Shenggong might really have some problems.

Although he despised the ugly behavior of the scholar on the surface and behind the scenes, it was impossible for him not to know it.

However, as a scholar, even if you have a clear conscience, you have to pull a bias.

As long as there is no conclusive evidence to directly prove that Yan Sheng Gong is guilty, the punishment will be according to the lightest degree.

His son has confessed to the complaints of the people.

Jinan Wei had bad intentions, and his son-in-law admitted it.

As for the other miscellaneous things, someone will bear them, so Yan Shenggong is still responsible for negligence.

It's just that this oversight is a bit outrageous......

Anyway, there is no direct evidence at the moment, so it is not a reversal of black and white, this is his bottom line, and his last stubbornness.

The family wealth of the Yansheng Mansion was handed over to the treasury, and only the title of Yansheng Gong could be retained, so as to retain the hope in the hearts of the scholars in the world.

As for the new policy or something, at present, it seems that it is completely deviant, if the emperor insists on implementing it, I am afraid that it will hurt the foundation of the Ming Dynasty!

At this time, the left waiter of the Criminal Department and the left deputy of the Metropolitan Procuratorate came in a hurry and sat on it.

When Xue Xuan saw that the three law divisions had arrived, he was ready to announce the final verdict.

The onlookers whispered, the jury was also whispering, and Zhu Qizhen's eyes were slightly closed, as if he was waiting for something.

Xue Xuan was puzzled, could it be that the emperor had anything else in his hands......

Suddenly, a neighing of horses was heard, and the crowd moved out of the way again.

I saw that Bei Lin, the Qin Heavenly Supervisor, walked forward with an old man.

The old man was about fifty years old, with gray hair and two cloth bags on his back.

Xue Xuan suddenly found that the emperor's eyes were open, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He felt a pang in his heart, what was going on......

"Chen Beilin knocks on the emperor!"

At this time, the old man behind Belin also fell to the ground.

"Grass people Kong Mingbo knocks to see the emperor!"

Yan Shenggong Kong Yanjin, who was standing on the side, suddenly changed his expression, and looked at Kong Mingbo blankly, with a little horror in his eyes.

Zhu Qizhen waved his hand and said, "Excuse me, I am here to observe the trial today, and I don't express my opinion, if you have anything to say, go and talk to the three law divisions."

Xue Xuan knew that these two people came in the dust, and it must have something to do with this.

Anyway, if there is anything, just make it clear at once, don't end up with a clear lake and leave people with a handle.

"Who is in the hall, and why did you come forward?"

Belin looked ahead, surprised in her heart, what happened to the three law divisions, only Dali Siqing, and the other two turned out to be Zuo Shilang and Zuo Deputy Imperial Envoy.

That's not a serious deal, isn't it?

It doesn't matter, as long as it's the Three Law Divisions.

"Xiaguan Qin Heavenly Eunuch Bei Lin, there is important evidence about Yan Shenggong!"

"What evidence?"

Belin glanced at Kong Mingbo behind him: "Mr. Kong, let's talk about it!"

Kong Mingbo stepped forward first, and after saluting, he said, "Kong Mingbo, Caomin Quzhou, I have seen adults!"

Xue Xuan asked, "Fang just said, you have evidence of Yan Shenggong, what evidence?"

Kong Mingbo first opened the two cloth bags behind him, slowly

Slowly took out two wooden statues.

"This is even the wooden statue of the husband and wife of the Holy Master, when the Jin soldiers went south, Emperor Gaozong Zhao Jiancheng established the Southern Song Dynasty, and Kong Duanyou, the then Yan Shenggong, was determined to follow the Southern Song Dynasty court to defend half of the rivers and mountains, and carried two wooden statues to the south, and established the Confucian family temple in Quzhou, Zhejiang, which is also known as the Southern Sect of Kong."

Only then did Xue Xuan understand that this was the Southern Sect of the Kong Clan, but what evidence were these two wooden statues?

At this time, a gloomy expression appeared on Kong Yanjin's face.

I saw that he suddenly stood up and said, "These two wooden statues should have returned to Qufu a long time ago, why did Nanzong refuse to return them?"

Kong Mingbo smiled bitterly and said, "Return to Qufu? Is there still a Kong family in Qufu?"

"What are you talking about, I am the Holy Father of the Imperial Court, the authentic Confucian ......."

"Shut up!"

Kong Mingbo suddenly shouted like crazy, which frightened Kong Yanjin and immediately shut up.

"You wolf ambition, how many years have you deceived us, how many years have you deceived the court, and to this day, you still dare to speak out!"

Kong Yanjin said angrily, "You...... You are despising the court!"

Seeing that the situation was chaotic, Xue Xuan had no choice but to knock on the shocking wood and ask, "What's going on?"

Kong Mingbo stretched out his hand and pointed at Kong Yanjin, gritted his teeth and said, "This person is not the Queen of the Holy Ancestor at all, but ...... It's the Mongols!"

PS: Solemnly recommend the book!

Xiao Mingju is coming with his new book "The Wind Rises at the End of the Ming Dynasty"!

Hair like a leek, cut back to life, head like a chicken, cut and resonant!

Officials don't have to be fearful, and small people are never to be taken lightly!

In troubled times, people are like ants, and life is like mustard.

The torrent of the times carries the fate of individuals.

The fate of being held hostage by the times can only rise and fall with the times.

In the eighth year of Chongzhen, the south called for disaster, Mongolia was defeated, the situation in the world has collapsed, and the once powerful Ming Empire is now the twilight of the West Mountain.

Chen Wang raised his head and stared at the shattered Shenzhou, and clenched the Yanling knife at his waist......
