Chapter 32 Empress Dowager Chen Evil Feng Bao

And Xu Fan didn't know about it at this time.

He had just rushed to the capital from Puzhou to wait for the news of the appointment, and he was talking to Wei Fengxiang:

"My father told me not to act against Gangneung's wishes."

"But in fact, how does my father know that if my Xu family doesn't even have a person who is an official in the court now, it will only make other powerful officials and gentry in the world look down on the Xu family, and even the local governors and even the parents and officials of the county are afraid that they will think that my Xu family has lost power, although Jiangling is the father and student of the family, he must have betrayed the Xu family, and he will also look down on my Xu family, how can my Xu family still gain a foothold?"

"That's what Brother Shi said. Even if Mr. Xu has no intention of pursuing a career, he should think about his children. ”

Wei Fengxiang also chimed in.

He had already hugged the thighs of the Xu family, and naturally hoped that the Xu family could continue to exert influence in the court, and then help him progress in his career, and said:

"Brother Shi doesn't have to worry, Xu Jue is reliable, and many people who ask for officials from Gonggong Feng through him can get their wish."

Xu Fan nodded.

But at this moment, a herald suddenly came to Wei Fengxiang's mansion to announce the decree, and read out Wei Fengxiang's will to be dismissed from his post as a citizen and never be used.

Wei Fengxiang was immediately stunned in place.

And Xu Fan was also quite surprised: "This ......"

Next, not long after, Xu Fan learned through "Di Bao" that Feng Bao had fallen, and he was ordered to continue to be filial piety at home.

Therefore, Xu Fan could only leave the capital with Wei Fengxiang.

"Quick!"

"Quick!"

"Quick!"

At the same time as Feng Bao fell, the flag school of Dongchang also rushed to Feng Bao's outer house and the mansion of Feng Bao's henchmen again, and arrested Feng Bao's family and henchmen.

Hai Rui also received his will to preside over Feng Bao at this time.

This lifted his spirits again, and he was determined to properly try all the charges of Feng Bao for bullying the monarch and the country.

It is worth mentioning that because Wang Yongji and Hai Rui jointly impeached Feng Bao, he was appointed by Zhang Juzheng as Langzhong of the Criminal Department, responsible for co-handling the case, and went to Nanzhili to arrest the eunuch in charge of the Weaving Bureau and the head of the Xu family, and even dealt with the matter of the weavers of the Weaving Bureau being transferred by the Xu family to their own workers.

However, regarding Feng Bao's imprisonment, Zhu Yijun did not rush to tell the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces.

Because Zhu Yijun didn't know if Zhang Hong would inform the Empress Dowager of the Two Palaces.

He'll have to wait and see.

Therefore, after Zhu Yijun was imprisoned after Feng Bao approved the red dismissal and ordered Zhang Whale to pass on his dictation to the cabinet, and asked the cabinet to draft a decree for Hai Rui to preside over Feng Bao, he first came to the Empress Dowager Chen.

Moreover, Zhu Yijun also specially took Xiao Yongning to the Empress Dowager Chen.

When Empress Dowager Chen saw Zhu Yijun holding Xiao Yongning here, she was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly picked up Xiao Yongning, and asked with a smile: "Is our little Yongning greedy again?" ”

"It's the emperor who wants to come. If it is hot today, the queen mother is getting less and less out now, so the emperor has to come to see you a few more times, and also bring the royal sister to see you and make you happy. ”

Zhu Yijun said with a smile.

Empress Dowager Chen was even happier when she heard this, hugged Xiao Yongning into her arms, and asked Zhu Yijun: "How have you been reading books recently?" ”

"It's okay, sir, I boasted, my companion also took care of it tightly, and I didn't dare to neglect my homework."

Zhu Yijun replied.

Empress Dowager Chen nodded, and then said, "Feng Bao is dutiful. ”

"That's it, the eldest companion is very powerful, and the two queen mothers are crowned queen mother at the same time, which is his idea for the emperor."

Zhu Yijun replied.

As soon as Zhu Yijun said this, Empress Dowager Chen immediately suppressed her smile, and then sneered: "Yes, I always thought it was Mr. Zhang's solution, but it turned out to be him!" ”

"Mr. Zhang is only staring at the emperor, where did he think of this."

Zhu Yijun replied.

"Yes."

Empress Dowager Chen nodded, and then instructed Zhu Yijun: "You take Xiao Yongning back first, I am also a little tired, I have to rest early." It doesn't come at night. ”

Zhu Yijun got up and said yes.

Soon after Zhu Yijun came back, Zhang Hong came to the Qianqing Palace, reported to him the news that Feng Bao had been imprisoned, and took the initiative to ask: "Emperor, Feng Bao's sins, look, do you want the slave maid to inform the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces to know?" ”

Zhu Yijun nodded with satisfaction.

He found that Zhang Hong was really interested, even if he told the Empress Dowager of the Two Palaces that Feng Bao was in prison, he came to ask for himself first, instead of telling the Empress Dowager Li directly.

"That's it, early tomorrow morning, I will announce that you and I will go with me depending on the situation, and you will bring the Zhu Ben that Hai Rui impeached Feng Bao with."

Zhu Yijun then gave another order to Zhang Hong.

"Yes!"

Zhang Hong agreed, and left Zhu Yijun's place.

The next day, after Zhu Yijun learned that Empress Dowager Li had gone to Empress Dowager Chen, he announced that Zhang Hong came over, and then went to Ciqing Palace with one of them.

Zhu Yijun also told the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces about Feng Bao's dismissal and imprisonment at this time.

"What the hell is going on?"

Empress Dowager Li immediately raised her eyebrows when she learned that Feng Bao had been dismissed and sent to prison.

Zhu Yijun instructed Zhang Hong: "Zhang Hong, read Hai Rui's bullet to the two queen mothers." ”

Zhang Hong read Hai Rui's bullet to Empress Dowager Li and Empress Dowager Chen.

And after Zhang Hong finished reading, Zhu Yijun said: "After the emperor received this bullet about Daban, he couldn't believe that Daban would do such a thing, and actually sold the weavers of the Weaving Bureau to the Xu family, but after all, it was played by a person like Hai Rui who was famous all over the world, and he couldn't say anything, so he still let Mr. Yuanfu Zhang vote, so Mr. Yuanfu Zhang also asked Hai Rui, and said to the emperor that Hai Rui did have empirical evidence in hand, so he couldn't be lenient with Daban." After all, it was Hai Rui who impeached him this time, and if it was handled unfairly, it would chill everyone in the world. ”

"This Feng Bao! I thought he used to be able to pretend, but I didn't expect him to be so dignified! ”

"Hai Rui, a direct minister, thinks that he Feng Bao has done such a thing, naturally there is no doubt!"

"I think last time he misheard a report called Wei Dynasty, wronged the emperor, and said that the emperor was playing with crickets, but I am afraid that it has already shown that he had the intention of bullying the emperor at that time, and he made the same mistake as Gao Gong!"

Empress Dowager Chen immediately followed up with a few words at this time, and her tone was quite cold.

Empress Dowager Chen said so, and Empress Dowager Li could only nod her head and sneered: "What my sister said is that it was Hai Rui who impeached him, so there is really nothing to say." Mr. Zhang's vote is precisely to show the emperor's wisdom, and he is not wrong. In the past, I thought he was faithful, but I didn't expect him to deceive us orphans and widows. ”

Then, Empress Dowager Li asked Zhu Yijun again: "Since Feng Bao has committed a crime, who do you plan to put in charge of the ceremonial supervisor?" ”

Zhu Yijun replied: "Naturally, it is Zhang Hong, the inner court Zhuzhen, he is the most ancient, and naturally the most reliable." ”

Empress Dowager Li nodded with satisfaction: "Very much!" ”

Empress Dowager Chen also smiled and nodded.

After Zhu Yijun left here, he announced that he had seen Zhang Whale and instructed: "As soon as the results of Hai Rui's trial of Feng Bao are reported, I will immediately inform Yu Zhen!" ”

Zhang Whale said yes.

And Hai Rui here, after receiving the will to let him preside over the trial, interrogated Feng Bao and his family members overnight.

Hai Jui is also an old criminal case, and he knows that he can't give prisoners too much time to do psychological construction.

As a result, Hai Rui soon had more conclusive evidence about Feng Bao, and also learned that Feng Bao was guilty of using the princess as a tool to collect money by marrying the princess privately, and forced Feng Bao to admit this crime through the transaction documents obtained from Liang Guozhu about Feng's promise to let his son be a colt in the future.

Hai Rui also said to Feng Bao because of this: "Feng Bao, not to mention that you have taken the lead for your own children and sold your official beard, even you dare to sell the princess!" As the princess, as the heir of the emperor, you are already a big rebel by doing this! It should have been killed. However, if you are entrusted with the examination and serve for a long time, you can be treated leniently; ”

When Hai Rui said this, Feng Bao's eyes suddenly lit up and he glanced up at Hai Rui.

The judges on the jury were also stunned.

Because everyone knows that Hai Jui's handling of cases has always been harsh, and he has been criticized by the official gentry.

But at this time, Hai Rui wanted to be lenient with Feng Bao, which was really surprising.

"But leniency is leniency, but the death penalty is unavoidable, because you have deceived the king and the country, and the sin is really serious, so this court has decided to sentence you to hang! I don't have any family property! ”

But Hai Rui then said again.

Feng Bao was stunned.

Immediately, he only cried loudly: "I'm sorry for the emperor, I'm sorry for the queen mother, and I'm even more sorry for the first emperor!" ”
