Chapter 219: Did You Ask Me for My Minister's Opinion?
"Three hundred thousand taels!"
Lu Yi suddenly whispered a number.
Zhang Whale said: "This matter, the silver is useless. ”
Lu Yi couldn't help but be disappointed when he heard this, and then said quite angrily: "Isn't it just that I missed a martial arts, why bother!" I'm going to die because of it? ”
Zhang Whale said: "Is that an ordinary martial artist?" ”
"Is it the Son of Heaven who insists on this?"
Lu Yi asked.
Zhang Jing didn't answer Lu Yi's words: "You still have to think about how to survive, such as making some merit or something, a civil uprising as big as Nanzhi can't really be organized by the people themselves, right?" ”
"Can I really avoid death if I make meritorious service?"
Lu Yi asked.
Zhang Whale nodded, and took out, and the cabinet that had approved the red asked for leniency for the criminals who had made meritorious contributions.
But Zhang Whale did not tell him that Shu Dayun was already in the hands of Jinyiwei, and he had already confessed that he had colluded with Nan Zhihao to murder Hai Rui, and even intended to obstruct the New Deal.
It is equivalent to that Zhang Whale is taking advantage of the information gap between him and Lu Yi to fool Lu Yi.
After Lu Yi saw Zhang Jing's secret here, he was anxious to survive, so he nodded hurriedly and said: "Okay, I'll explain everything, I will explain all the bribes that Gu Bingren and Ma Weiming paid to me, and there are private messages as proof!" ”
"Of course, I rejected their stolen money. It's just that now, for the sake of meritorious service and for the sake of the source, I have to be honest with Your Majesty, and I am willing to accept the crime of concealment and non-reporting! ”
Zhang Whale laughed: "Very good." ”
After Shu Dayun and Lu Yi and others were taken to the Imperial Prison, they were all interrogated, and many people were also interrogated by the factory guards.
The Jinyi Guard also sent more Tiqi to catch the criminals who had not yet been caught, that is, those who were hiding behind the scenes.
Especially after Wang Xijue and other industrial and commercial gentry who chose to betray other Nanzhi gentry sent the evidence of the crimes of those gentry behind the scenes, they gave Jinyiwei the opportunity to arrest the local gentry behind the scenes according to the map.
Originally, Wang Xijue and other industrial and commercial gentry just didn't intend to directly participate in the behind-the-scenes trouble, launch a popular uprising, and obstruct the New Deal.
Because in terms of land interests, they are the same as the gentry who make trouble.
Therefore, although they did not participate, they did not stop it, and they did not even directly expose it because they knew, but deliberately sat on the mountain and watched the tiger fight, and then decided who to turn to after seeing the court and these tyrants who were doing things behind their backs.
But now that the situation has become clear, they have naturally changed from a wait-and-see to directly compromising with the imperial court, and even flattering the imperial court and betraying the wealthy gentry who are making trouble, in order to take the opportunity to annex the assets of the troublemakers.
It is precisely because of their betrayal that it is much easier to dig out the Haoyou gentry behind the scenes.
This is also why Hai Jui said that if you want to purge out the arrogant and inferior gentry who are doing things behind the scenes, you have to rely on the democracy movement, and you have to see how determined the Son of Heaven is.
Because as long as the Son of Heaven is determined, he can force the reformist bureaucrats who are loyal to the imperial court to completely compromise with the imperial court, and at the same time, by winning over the people, the gentry who are forced to wait and see the interests of the noble and inferior gentry who are neutral and wait and see the restoration of peace as soon as possible and are greedy for trouble, also stand on the side of the imperial court, and finally make the gentry who can't help but make trouble behind the scenes become a minority, so that these people can be purged.
After Yan Qing requested that the relevant offenders be transferred to the Three Laws Division for trial, Zhang Juzheng drafted an edict that "Zhundong Factory will hand over the relevant offenders to the Three Laws Division for trial as appropriate".
As a result, Dongchang handed over the relevant countercriminals who had completed the trial to the prison of the Criminal Department according to the order, and prepared to be tried by the Three Law Divisions.
On this day, Yan Qing, the secretary of the Criminal Department, Zhang Mengli, the Zhengqing of Dali Temple, and Wang Ji, the deputy capital of the left capital, were formally formed by the three legal divisions due to the illness of Chen Ji, the imperial history of the left capital, and tried Lu Yi and other rebels.
After Lu Yi learned that his matter should be tried by the Three Law Division, he thought that Yan Qing was because for the sake of Shilin's friendship, he didn't want the factory guards to inflict torture on the scholars, and intended to deal with his own criminal doctors leniently, so he asked the Three Law Divisions to interrogate his own will, and Zhang Juzheng, as a member of the scholars, obviously contributed to this matter, and after coming to the Three Law Division, it was very relaxed.
Not only Lu Yi thinks so, but Zhang Mengli and Wang Ji also think so.
Therefore, Zhang Mengli asked before and after Lu Yi was escorted to the hall: "Lu Chenqing, why did you beat the Son of Heaven's pro-military guard?" ”
Lu Yi replied: "The steen was not beaten, it was the Son of Heaven's own military guard who put his face up, and the sinner's hand accidentally touched it. ”
Wang Ji then asked: "Then why, your confession in the edict is that you slapped the pro-military guard because you wanted to prevent the pro-military guard from carrying out the order of the ministry hall Haigong?" ”
"The criminals were tortured into confessions, as evidenced by Ying Tianfu Yin Li and other colleagues."
Lu Yi replied, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
Wang Ji also nodded with a smile: "Li has waited for a note to be submitted, saying that it was indeed a misunderstanding that day; Even so, it is very clear that even if he really slapped the pro-military guard, it was only an accidental injury, not intentional, and there are extenuating circumstances. ”
】
Wang Ji looked at Yan Qing and Zhang Mengli as he spoke: "I don't know what you two think?" ”
Zhang Mengli nodded first: "This is extremely appropriate." ”
Lu Yi also showed an unconcealable smile proudly, and therefore gave his hand: "The second public enforces the law fairly, and does not use the punishment of Dabi without permission, and the criminals are very grateful!" ”
"Wait!"
But Yan Qing shouted at this time.
Zhang Mengli and Wang Ji both looked at Yan Qing as a result.
Yan Qing asked the two: "Did the second prince not read the confession sent by Dongchang, or did he deliberately ignore it?" ”
After asking, Yan Qing said very seriously: "This Lu Yi is obviously also involved in colluding with the fugitive Zhenjiang Deputy Chief Shu Dayun and Haoyou Gu Bingren to murder Qin Cha and even instigate the people's rebellion!" and the crime of deceiving oneself and making false confessions! It's all in the confession provided by Dongchang, you didn't read it or deliberately ignored it, can you make this happen as if it didn't happen?! That's how you carry out the triage of the Three Law Divisions?! What is the imperial court discipline in your eyes?! ”
Zhang Mengli and Wang Ji looked shocked and glanced at each other.
Lu Yi was even more surprised, and asked Yan Qing in a gaffe: "What does the public mean by not bending me?" ”
Yan Qing ignored Lu Yi and only asked directly, "Where is the criminal department?" ”
The criminal department present also got up awkwardly and asked, "What advice does the chief priest have?" ”
"Such a blasphemy against the three divisions, you should also be impeached!"
Yan Qing said.
Zhang Mengli, Wang Ji, and Zong Hongxian all walked towards Yan Qing, and Wang Ji first whispered: "Da Sikou, can you take a step to speak!" ”
Strictly count the head.
Immediately, the three of them retreated to the back of the hall with Yan Qing.
Wang Ji first asked, "Why is the Great Sikou like this?" ”
Zhang Mengli also asked, "Isn't the Great Sikou here to rescue my Wenchen Doctor?" ”
Zong Hongxian even asked directly: "If the Great Si Kou really wants Ding is Ding Mao is Mao today, aren't you afraid that in the future, the six branches and thirteen Dao will also be Ding Mao is Ding Mao and Ding Mao is Mao?" ”
"Is the parish still afraid of impeachment?"
Yan Qing sneered.
"Even the crime of asking for bribes from the Church can be fabricated, and the Church is still afraid of your threat?!"
Then, Yan Qing asked again.
Zong Hongxian was speechless for a while, and hurriedly said: "But this matter is not done below, and there is no need for the great priest to be so careful, even regardless of the friendship of Shilin!" ”
Yan Qing continued to sneer: "Tell the people behind you, don't blame this hall here for ignoring the friendship of Shilin, and don't blame this hall for cutting off your financial route to ask for benefits from the Lu family in the future!" ”
"I'll just say a word from this hall, have you been sorry for you before, I'm sorry for the corporal doctor?!"
"But as a result, why did this parish give up a place for Hai Rui?! And put such a great sin on the head of the parish! ”
"Even if you want me to give Hai Rui the position of the secretary of the criminal department, have you asked me? Are you taking me seriously?! ”
"This hall is also a big priest, when you are the secretary of the court, can you be respectful of this hall!"
"Just because the church has no backer, and refuses to be with the light, when the governor of Sichuan is in office, you don't let the officials come to the right Hu, and you impeach the church."
"But what happened to the Kouguan Hall forced out by Shaanxi?"
"Fortunately, Zhao Gongli, the prime minister, said that this is not the responsibility of caressing, but the responsibility of the local officials, so he was not severely punished; Now that the teacher is dead, you have to put the hall to death, and now, the person behind you has stabbed the knife first, so don't blame the church for not being humane! ”
"The Church is glad to invite the Church to abolish the good will of its own people, and to add another reputation for its strict law enforcement."
