"You!"

Wu Yuexiu's fingers trembled and pointed at Li Hualong, gritting his teeth.

He really didn't expect Li Hualong to put him along.

However, before Wu Yuexiu could say anything, he was picked up by Jinyiwei and directly loaded into the prisoner car.

Wu Yuexiu was then really escorted into Beijing with Zhu Huakui, Wang Bihe, the king of Chu and other puppet officials.

And he himself didn't expect that he was a hero who made great contributions to quelling the rebellion one moment, and the next second he became a criminal who harbored a rebel.

On the contrary, Li Hualong was promoted two levels in a row because of his meritorious service in countering the rebellion and investigating traitors, and directly became the political envoy of Huguang and temporarily served as the governor.

As a result, he became the biggest winner in the entire rebellion of the King of Chu.

An Xifan and other Wu Yuexiu comrades hated Li Hualong to the bone, and in the notes, Li Hualong was plotted to get a chance to be promoted by murdering his friends.

But An Xifan and the others could only construct it in their notes, and they didn't dare to say it explicitly.

Because there is no actual evidence.

On the contrary, there is empirical evidence that Wu Yuexiu harbored rebels and embezzled rebels.

First of all.

Wu Yuexiu's house slave Pan Gui was indeed caught by Liu Xuezeng's people and left Huguang in transshipment of a large amount of gold and silver, and secondly, Wang Bihe did confess that Wu Yuexiu had signed a gift list to accept bribes from him.

Although Wu Yuexiu can deny that he did not have the intention of raising troops with Wang Bihe, and can use the fact that he dared to take the lead in quelling the rebellion and made meritorious contributions to prove that he did not want to plot rebellion, his bribery and greed for money are ironclad.

Therefore, after Wu Yuexiu was escorted into Beijing, and the evidence of his crime was inscribed by the three law divisions to the emperor, Zhu Yijun also issued an order to recover his stolen money because of the conclusive evidence, and decided to behead him on the grounds of his audacity and deceit, but considering his counterinsurgency merit, he was given a glass of poisoned wine instead, not to connect the clan.

Because the evidence of Wu Yuexiu's embezzlement of contrarian property and bribery by rebellious ministers is conclusive, the civil officials who spoke for him before all chose to be silent.

But no one was going to let them go because they were silenced.

During the criminal department, Liu Daolong directly went to the impeachment of An Xifan, Yue Yuansheng, etc., and did not clarify right and wrong, so he interceded for the corrupt official and rebel minister Wu Yuexiu, which was obviously a friend of the party, and asked the emperor to punish them to clear the rebel party.

Followed by.

In the matter, Yang Tingxiang also followed Shang Shu and said that Wu Yuexiu was really Wang Bi and the mastermind behind the scenes, and it was Wu Yuexiu who instructed Wang Bi and the discordant clan to persuade the King of Chu to rebel, and Wu Yuexiu was the real rebel, and An Xifan and others were both rebels with Wu Yuexiu.

Subsequently, Ma Yundeng, a member of the Ministry of Rites, also followed Shangshu, and also came to point a move to fight the west, clearly impeaching Jinyiwei knowing that there was a rebel party, An Xifan and others were still in the court, and did not ask for an order to arrest him, but asked the Son of Heaven to treat Zhang Jingxiu for his crimes, but in fact, he wanted the Son of Heaven to deal with An Xifan and others as rebels.

"Then put these people in prison first!"

"It involves a major case of conspiracy and rebellion, and you can't be cautious."

Zhu Yijun gave instructions on this.

An Xifan, Gu Yuncheng and others were very panicked when they heard this.

"What should we do, we have become rebels."

An Xifan couldn't help but ask Yue Yuansheng.

Yue Yuansheng said: "How did we know that he Wu Daohe was really corrupt!" ”

"I went to Zhang Jingxiu and asked him to help intercede."

"He has always been quite polite to gentlemen."

Zhao Nanxing said at this time.

And it didn't take long for Zhao Nanxing to really stop Zhang Jingxiu first: "Ti Shuai really wants to treat Mr. Su and others as a rebel against the party?" ”

"But they did intercede for Wu Yuexiu."

Zhang Jingxiu replied.

Zhao Nanxing said urgently: "But now it is undecided whether Wu Yuexiu is against the party, Ti Shuai has always been a decent person, and he is a true gentleman, how can he also believe the words of a traitor, thinking that Mr. Su and others are rebels, and not plead with His Majesty for the sake of protecting the court?" ”

Zhang Jingxiu said: "I am regarded as a gentleman, but since I am a gentleman, I should abide by my duty, how can I exceed my authority? ”

"I am a close minister of brocade, if I speak out for a minister of a foreign court at this time, interfering in the prison, I am suspected of arrogating and forming a party; So, I can't disobey at this time! ”

"However, please rest assured, now they are just being imprisoned, and they are suspected of being against the party, but it is not that they are really determined that they are also against the party, since the public thinks that I am a gentleman, I should believe that I will not be wronged by a gentleman."

Zhao Nanxing was speechless after hearing this, and only followed Zhang Jingxiu to the place where An Xifan and the others gathered.

But as soon as Zhang Jingxiu came, he saw An Xifan, Yue Yuansheng and others sitting around a tea table all collapsed on the table, their eyes open, their pupils were dilated, and their faces were very painful.

Zhang Jingxiu and Zhao Nanxing looked at each other.

"What's going on?"

Zhang Jingxiu hurriedly asked Zhao Nanxing.

Zhao Nanxing said: "I don't know. ”

At that time, Zhang Maoxiu had already tried the snort of several people, and came to Zhang Jingxiu and said: "They are all out of breath, it is estimated that the tea is poisonous, and they still have tea soup in their mouths." ”

After hearing this, Zhang Jingxiu immediately ordered: "Control all the people here!" ”

Zhang Jingxiu pointed at Zhao Nanxing as he spoke: "Including him!" Maybe it was him Zhao Mengbai who was poisoned! ”

Zhao Nanxing was taken down by Jinyiwei, and the whole person was still in a state of stunned face, and he didn't say anything.

Zhu Yijun learned about this situation from Zhang Jingxiu not long after, and immediately got up and threw the Zhang Song in his hand to the ground:

"It's really ruthless!"

"I haven't even said that I want to put them to death as rebels, and the comrades behind them can't wait to kill them one by one, do they just don't believe in their comrades?!"

"Zhao Nanxing, who was with An Xifan and others, was spared, and the minister had already released him to prison first."

"However, the poisoned tea boy has died violently when we found out, these civil officials don't like to be at home when they gather now, they always like to change places, either to go to the lake for a cruise, or to the mountain pavilion, and the people who use it are often changed, making it difficult for the Jinyi guards to monitor them and protect them, so these tea boys are given an opportunity."

Zhang Jingxiu continued at this time.

Zhu Yijun said: "Did he confess anything?" ”

"Nope."

"He won't say anything now."

Zhang Jingxiu replied.

After hearing this, Zhu Yijun ordered: "Then lock him up first, interrogate him, and see if he knows about it." ”

Zhang Jingxiu said yes.

And Zhu Yijun crossed his hands on his waist and looked outside the hall.

At this time, the dark clouds outside the hall were thick, as if the wind and rain were coming, and the dark and dreary sky made it impossible to figure out who was behind the scenes to challenge the rules of his son of heaven.

"Could it be Gu Xiancheng who is at home?"

"Could this person be called a Confucian scholar, but in fact he secretly kills and kills decisively?"

Zhu Yijun couldn't help but ask secretly.

But in any case, An Xifan and other civil officials who had spoken for Wu Yuexiu before suddenly died, which did make Zhu Yijun want to catch more of his comrades.

So much so that now on the bright side, it seems that Wu Yuexiu's party is only Zhao Nanxing.

Zhu Yijun knew why the people behind the scenes wanted to kill their mouths, just because they were afraid that he, the emperor, would engage in melon and vine copying, so he simply extinguished the mouths of these people first, so that he, the emperor, really wanted to melon vines and didn't even know where to start.

It's just that these people missed Zhao Nanxing, I have to say, it was a mistake.

But what these people wouldn't have thought of was that Zhu Yijun had never only focused on the court.

Therefore, after Zhu Yijun made arrangements for Zhang Jingxiu, he said to Sun Xin: "As soon as Zhang Whale and them come to a new secret performance, they will immediately report to me." ”

"Yes!"
