Chapter 74: Li Jin Recruits Soldiers in Yiwu with the Intention of Rebellion!

In the Fengtian Palace, Hu Weiyong's words successfully attracted the attention of civil and military officials to himself.

Lan Yu heard Li Jin's name again, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, when did this Li Jin provoke Hu Weiyong?

Wasn't he relegated back to Shanghu County a long time ago?

One of these two people is in the capital and the other is in Shanghu County, how could they meet?

Not only Lan Yu, but even Liu Bowen looked at Hu Weiyong with some surprise.

As the leader of the party in eastern Zhejiang, Liu Bowen felt that Hu Weiyong was a kind person, at least not like Li Shanchang.

Hu Weiyong took office to participate in the politics of Zhongshu Province, Liu Bowen was a little happy in his heart, after all, Hu Weiyong's performance was quite gentle, and there was not much hatred between the two.

But he didn't expect that as soon as Hu Weiyong took office, he would take Li Jin.

Although Liu Bowen has only seen Li Jin twice, he has a very good impression of this person.

Li Jin is not confined to form, he is an official who sincerely does practical things for the people, and he is a good seedling of the Ming Dynasty that Hu Weiyong values more.

At the beginning, Zhu Yuanzhang transferred Li Jin to the capital to supervise the imperial history, which was promoted by Liu Bowen.

It's just that now, Liu Bowen doesn't know why Hu Weiyong put Li Jin to death.

You must know that rebellion is not a joke, once Zhu Yuanzhang begins to doubt, even if it is just suspicion, then Li Jin will be doomed.

As a last resort, Liu Bowen had to stand up and say for Li Jin:

"Master Hu, I don't know who you heard about this?"

"You must know that in the case of rebellion, you must not chase the wind and catch the shadows, it is a matter of the imperial court, I wonder if Lord Hu has real evidence?"

Zhu Yuanzhang sat on the dragon chair, his face uncertain.

As soon as he heard that Li Jin had rebelled, Zhu Yuanzhang felt unbelieving in his heart.

After all, Li Jin loves money like life, and Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't believe that Li Jin will invest money in training private troops.

As a rebel starter, Zhu Yuanzhang naturally has a clear idea of how much it will cost to raise soldiers.

And after so many days of contact, Zhu Yuanzhang can be sure that Li Jin is not the kind of person with great ambitions.

He felt that Li Jin was the kind of person who was at ease with what happened, worked hard to earn money, and lived a more luxurious life.

Zhu Yuanzhang subconsciously wanted to scold Hu Weiyong, after all, this kind of framing of the imperial court officials made Zhu Yuanzhang very angry.

When the words came to his lips, Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it again, why not let Hu Weiyong try?

If he can really get Li Jin's handle, no matter whether he really rebelled or not, and directly copied his house, then wouldn't he Zhu Yuanzhang send it?

"Ahem!"

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately coughed lightly, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and asked:

"Berwyn is right, Hu Weiyong, you said that Li Jin conspired to rebel, is there any evidence?"

After finishing speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Hu Weiyong expectantly, hoping that Hu Weiyong would not disappoint him.

When Hu Weiyong heard this, he hurriedly replied:

"Your Majesty, the ministers have witnesses who can prove that Li Jin does have the intention of rebellion."

"Oh?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked like he was in the middle of nowhere, but he was ecstatic in his heart, he didn't expect that this Hu Weiyong really had two hits, and he could really catch Li Jin's pigtails?

In this case, Li Jin, don't blame us for being ruthless!

"Passing on the witnesses, we have to interrogate them personally, and it is simply appalling that the officials of the court dare to rebel."

Hu Weiyong was overjoyed when he saw that Zhu Yuanzhang trusted him so much, and hurriedly asked people to bring the people he brought from Shanghu County.

Soon, several people dressed in plain cloth and with simple and simple faces walked up to the hall tremblingly, accompanied by the guards.

When these people came to such a solemn place for the first time, they were only so frightened that their legs shook, and they barely stood firm with the support of the guards.

After seeing Zhu Yuanzhang on the dragon chair, these people were even more unbearable, and they knelt down in fright, and said tremblingly:

"Grass people... See... Your Majesty!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw these people, he felt a little kind, and at first glance he was the kind of honest people.

Looking at their cowering appearance, Zhu Yuanzhang felt that this kind of person was very sincere and would not deceive himself.

"Look up."

Zhu Yuanzhang controlled his voice to make it appear amiable.

"Where are you from, and what are your names?"

"The grass people are all from Yiwu County."

"The grass people's name is Chen Da."

"The grass people's name is Chen Er."

"The grass people's name is Zhao Si."

After calming down a little, the three of them told Zhu Yuanzhang about their lives one by one.

After listening to this, Zhu Yuanzhang bowed slightly.

These people are countrymen when they hear their names, and they have the same effect as him Zhu Chongba.

"I heard that you are going to report Li Jin's rebellion, I don't know if it's okay?"

wildly

When Chen Dasan heard this, he couldn't help but secretly glance at Hu Weiyong, not knowing whether to answer or not.

Seeing this, Hu Weiyong's eyes widened, and he said angrily:

"What do you think I do? Whatever the emperor asks, you will answer! ”

"When you were on the road, didn't you stop Lord Ben from complaining and saying that Li Jin was plotting rebellion?"

Hu Weiyong's voice frightened these people, and they hurriedly nodded like garlic and said:

"Yes, yes, the grass people reported that Li Jin, the county commander of Shanghu County, plotted to rebel."

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes kept looking at the faces of Chen Dasan and Hu Weiyong, and then his face turned pale, and he asked in a serious voice:

"Is everything you say true?"

"You must know that if you dare to frame the court officials, you will bear the charge of reverse."

"Sitting? What is reverse sitting? ”

Zhu Biao looked at a few people with blank expressions, and kindly explained:

"That is, if it is found to be a false accusation in the end, then you will have to bear the same charge."

"If Li Jin did not rebel, then you will bear the charge of rebellion, raid your home, and punish the nine clans."

The three of Chen looked at each other, no one told them this before they came, and they couldn't help but look at Hu Weiyong again.

But this time, Hu Weiyong didn't speak again, just looked down at the floor, and his face was expressionless.

Seeing this, Chen Da and the others knew that they had no way out, so they had to bite and say:

"The grass people are true."

"Then Li Jin recruited soldiers in our Yiwu County seven days ago."

"We people in Yiwu County know about this matter, and you can find out if you go to Yiwu County and find someone at random."

As soon as these words came out, all the civil and military officials were in an uproar.

If it is really as these people say, then Li Jin will die.

Everyone in the county knows that Li Jin is recruiting soldiers, and I am afraid that this kind of thing cannot be concealed if they want to.

This made Zhu Yuanzhang very happy.

yes, that's great.

No matter what Li Jin wants to do, but now that the yellow mud has fallen into the crotch of his pants, he Li Jin will definitely not be able to rely on it.

With so many witnesses, no matter how Li Jin defends, he, Zhu Yuanzhang, can behead Li Jin's house.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Hu Weiyong's gaze and appreciated it even more.

is worthy of being a person we value, and he has just helped us do a big thing when he first took office.

Hu Weiyong raised his head at this time and saw Zhu Yuanzhang's gaze, Hu Weiyong was even more energetic, and said loudly:

"Your Majesty, what Li Jin did in Yiwu County is indeed true."

"There is also a report from Yiwu County and County Cheng here, please check it out with the emperor."
