Chapter 129: Lock Him Up for Two Days
Collective impeachment, and collective ***, are two different things.
Collective*** is good to say, it is nothing more than an order to urge Jinyiwei and Ying Tianfu and other yamen to solve the case as soon as possible and arrest the strongman who attacked the imperial court officials. Collective impeachment, on the other hand, has a clear goal.
Moreover, this goal may involve a certain minister or important minister of the imperial court, who is worried that he, the emperor, will be favoritistic and force him, the emperor, to deal with it.
Mao Xiang shook his head and said, "It's not a collective ***, it's impeachment!"
"Impeachment whom?" Zhu Yuanzhang said with a solemn expression.
Mao Xiang looked at the murderous Zhu Yuanzhang, secretly swallowed his saliva, and then hesitated: "Son of Lan Yu, Jinyi Wei Baihu, Lan Bin!"
"Who, who did you just say?" Zhu Yuanzhang was furious, didn't react for a while, and was stunned.
Mao Xiang suddenly fell to the ground and buried his head deeply: "Son of Lan Yu, Lan Bin!"
"Bastard, at this time, you dare to frame Zhongliang?" Zhu Yuanzhang was furious.
Although Lan Bin took the prince Zhu Biao and others to do business and engage in cheap business, he was dissatisfied. But everything Lan Bin did was for the royal family and loyal to the court.
The most difficult thing is that Lan Bin is still young and extremely plastic. With a little training, he is an important minister of the imperial court.
And Mao Xiang dared to slander Lan Bin at this critical juncture, and Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly became murderous.
"Your Majesty, it's not the minister who said it, it's Chen Junbai who said it!"
Mao Xiang, who was lying on the ground, was no longer able to complain, and I knew that this was the result!
Since the last time he said that Lan Bin was not, which attracted Zhu Yuanzhang's reprimand, he kept an eye on Lan Bin's matter.
Just like just now, he could clearly say that it might be that Lan Bin took revenge on Chen Junbai and beat Chen Junbai's stuffy stick, but he didn't say it directly, first, he had no evidence in his hand to prove that Lan Bin beat Chen Junbai's stuffy stick.
Second, he knew Lan Bin's status in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart, and rashly said Lan Bin, not only would he not please him, but he would anger Zhu Yuanzhang.
That's why he avoided Lan Bin and said things directly.
Unexpectedly, after paving for a long time, in the end, it still attracted Zhu Yuanzhang's anger.
At this time, he really wanted to ask Zhu Yuanzhang, how much do you like this kid Lan Bin and defend him so much? Weren't you still angry that the court officials were attacked?
I just mentioned Lan Bin, and your anger turned immediately!
When someone else attacks Chen Junbai, you can't wait to kill the attacker. Lan Bin attacked Chen Junbai, you blame me for framing, who did I provoke?
"Why is he talking nonsense?" Zhu Yuanzhang was angry.
Mao Xiang raised his head slightly, secretly glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang, saw Zhu Yuanzhang's murderous and angry face, and swallowed his saliva: "Chen Junbai impeached Lan Bin a few days ago, and now Chen Junbai has been attacked."
"So Chen Junbai suspected that Lan Bin sent someone to attack him, so he shouted for Lan Bin to take revenge on him!"
"When did Chen Junbai impeach Lan Bin? Why don't we know?" Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned and frowned.
Mao Xiang hurriedly said: "Chen Junbai is the Lan Bin who was impeached after the Thousand Autumn Festival. But when the impeachment was folded to the East Palace, it was suppressed by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
"Why did Chen Junbai impeach Lan Bin?"
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't ask Chen Junbai about the impeachment and being suppressed by the crown prince Zhu Biao, first, the impeachment of Lan Bin, not to mention Zhu Biao's suppression, will stay in him when he comes here.
Second, he has delegated the right to deal with the twists and turns to the prince Zhu Biao, and he will not interfere with the handling of the prince Zhu Biao for non-major matters, let alone look at the twists and turns handled by the prince Zhu Biao, and fully trust his son.
"Some time ago, Lan Bin asked his servants to search for sick dogs all over the city and hurt them..."
Mao Xiang told the truth about Chen Junbai's impeachment, without adding any personal opinions, and did not dare to be biased.
After listening to this, Zhu Yuanzhang said with a calm face: "Is this Chen Junbai idle for a day, let's give him the right to hear about things, and let him supervise hundreds of officials." He took our money and went to supervise a teenager buying a dog?"
"And Lan Bin's little bastard, he is not very old, but his courage is not small, even our inspector Yushi dares to fight? It seems that we usually discipline too
Less, we're going to have to beat him up tomorrow."
"Cause us trouble!"
Mao Xiang heard that Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to play fifty boards each, but in fact he was biased towards Lan Bin, thinking about Lan Bin's attack and revenge on the court officials, Zhu Yuanzhang only threatened to play two boards, and then revealed it.
However, Chen Junbai was suspected by the emperor of the motive for impeachment.
A courtier, who is doubted by the emperor, not to mention the future, whether he can save his life is two different things.
But he didn't express any opinion, and remained silent.
After Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, he thought of the collective impeachment of Chen Junbai in contact with other imperial histories of the Imperial Procuratorate tomorrow, and scolded Lan Bin in his heart, and thought about it: "Forget it, the board will not be beaten, don't break it."
"Mao Xiang, tomorrow morning, you take the Jinyi guard and arrest Lan Bin in Zhao Prison for two days."
"When the limelight has passed, it's being released. Don't let him suffer the slightest grievance in Zhaojiao, understand?"
Although he protected Lan Bin, the imperial historians of the Metropolitan Procuratorate collectively impeached him, but he couldn't ignore it and couldn't help but give an explanation.
Otherwise, the imperial historians of the Imperial Court will not give up.
Even if he was reluctant, he could only imprison Lan Bin for two days to appease the anger of the imperial historians of the Imperial Procuratorate.
Mao Xiang tugged at the corners of his mouth, can't let him suffer the slightest grievance in Zhao Prison? Am I going to catch a prisoner, or am I bringing back an uncle?
Jinyiwei is a place for felons and prisoners, but not a place to raise an uncle.
Thinking about it, he raised his head and said, "Your Majesty, dare to ask in what name to arrest people?"
"Lan Bin retaliated and beat Chen Junbai, the imperial history of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, do you want us to teach you?" Zhu Yuanzhang's face was not good.
Mao Xiang looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and said stubbornly: "Back to the emperor, Chen Junbai said that Lan Bin retaliated and attacked him, but it was just his statement, and there is no evidence!"
What? No evidence?
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, he thought that Lan Bin took revenge on Chen Junbai and was caught, so he thought about closing Lan Bin for two days and punishing one or two, so as not to cause more trouble with Lan Bin's tail in the sky.
By the way, give an explanation to the Metropolitan Procuratorate and calm the anger of the Imperial Historians of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
As a result, there was no evidence.
Is there no evidence to convict Lan Bin?
And that Chen Junbai has no evidence, so he dares to contact the imperial historians of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and impeach him collectively, does he still have the law in his eyes?
Thinking about it, he looked at Mao Xiang and said with an unkind face, "Why didn't you say such an important thing earlier?"
"The minister just said... If the minister loses his word, the minister is guilty of death!" Mao Xiang just subconsciously said that he had just said that you paid attention to Chen Junbai's beating, and didn't pay attention, but he looked at Zhu Yuanzhang's face and said that it was wrong, so he decisively changed his words and pleaded guilty.
Zhu Yuanzhang also thought about it at this time, but he was wrong, how could he admit it: "There is no need to die, you will be punished for a month to set an example."
"Thank you, thank the Emperor!" Mao Xiang said busily.
Zhu Yuanzhang took two steps back and forth in place, pondered for a moment, and said, "Send someone to pay close attention to the movements of the imperial historians of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, let's see how many imperial historians will respond to Chen Junbai's impeachment!"
"This Metropolitan Procuratorate, or not our Metropolitan Procuratorate!"
