Chapter 362(1/2)
Liu Jin was executed
Officials who specialize in pen-playing in the Six Case Thirteen Dao have a place to use their skills this time. Although half of these yamen have been destroyed by Yang Ling, the lethality of the remaining people is still amazing. Li Dongyang and Yang Tinghe made a brief suggestion that the yamen in Kedao Dao collectively wrote a letter to impeach Liu Jin with one word, and there were countless charges. Emperor Zhengde's Long Shu case was instantly overwhelmed by overwhelming memorials.
Zhengde still didn't even look at these memorials. Since he had decided to kill people, these things were just an explanation for the people of the world, and what they did? Liu Jin was transferred from the inner prison to the imperial prison and realized that something was wrong, but he still couldn't figure out why the emperor had obviously softened his heart, so he suddenly decided to attack himself.
The only task Yang Ling gave to Miao Kui was to take care of Liu Jin and never let him speak to the emperor. Because it would be difficult for the emperor to kill him, even if he did all the evil things, it would probably not be easy. Only rebellion and killing the king were the only feasible way. Therefore, he and the emperor could not be allowed to defend him.
Miao Kui also knew that he would never fail. Liu Jin was transferred to the imperial prison, and the Imperial Horse Prison made an exception and sent people to chase him. Zhang Yong of the East Factory and Mou Bin of the Jinyiwei also sent his confidants. In addition, Wu Jie, who was in charge of the power of the internal factory, each of the three factories and one guards produced elites, and the surrounding prison was so scattered that the emperor could not do anything unless the emperor wanted to come, otherwise no one would think about going in and no one would come out.
The troops of the three factories and one bathroom are still responsible for monitoring each other. This is the last moment and there is no need to make any mistakes.
Zhang Cai, Liu Yu, Cao Yuan, Yang Yu, Shi Wenyi, Zhang Wenmian and others, as well as Liu Jin's relatives in Beijing, were also arrested and imprisoned. Ma Yongcheng and Luo Xiang had nowhere to escape. The other three ran to Zhang Yong to hold his thighs and cried "Big Brother, Master", which made Zhang Yong cry soft. Fortunately, Liu Jin was too authoritative, so they followed him to make some money and there was no big evil. Zhang Yong came forward to speak and protected the three people.
Lu Shijie was fine, but Dai Yi arranged it well, saying that he was following Liu Jin and wanted to do something for his aide and the court. Later, he found out that Liu Jin embezzled public silver to seek personal gain and reported it to him. This not only made no mistake but also made contributions. Unexpectedly, Lu Shijie's madness that had endured for a long time suddenly broke out again. This crazy scholar was far more famous than profit. He would rather go to prison together than betray the old owner. Although he was originally entrusted by Yang Ling to sneak into the Liu family, he could not express it.
How could Dai Yi be willing to arrest him? Lu Shijie ran to the lobby of Dongchang with a wine gourd and sat cross-legged onto the case. He drank and scolded him, and never left without arresting him. Dongchang, which had always been feared by others, became a bustling overpass. Dai Yi was amused and cried, and he was so kind that he could not persuade him to leave. In desperation, he had to do what he wanted. He sent him to the prison and settled down first, and then ran to ask Yang Ling for instructions.
Yang Ling was ridiculous and laughed at him. After taking his busy schedule, he rushed into prison to persuade him. Lu Shijie was calm and calm. He smiled at Yang Ling and said, "Donald doesn't have to persuade me. If you can kill Liu thief, why should Lu have a life of his life? If you are released from prison like this, you will be criticized. Lu will pay it for his life. What's the point?"
Yang Ling had no choice when he met such a stubborn donkey. Dai Yi's eyes rolled and whispered to him. Yang Ling nodded and left. Liu Yu, Cao Yuan and others who were arrested and imprisoned, knew that they had defected to the wrong master. This life was over. In prison, they just closed their eyes and waited for death. Don't say much. However, Zhang Cai and Zhang Wenmian refused to give up.
The two of them are smarter than others, and smart people are always unwilling to sit and wait for death. Zhang Cai wrote a beautiful article overnight in prison, talking about how he had advised Liu Jin not to accept bribes and not to treat all officials. He was a loyal minister. His local talent was extremely outstanding. He described the embarrassing situation of having to surrender to the eunuchs, for the sake of the court, for the country and the country.
In fact, this poor Minister of Personnel did not know the real reason why the emperor suddenly turned against him. If he knew that the emperor was because of Liu Jin's rebellion, he would probably not have to worry about this. It was precisely because he always thought that the emperor was furious about Liu Jin's greed, so he made a big fuss about this matter and confessed his innocentness and helplessness.
Although his hope of life is slim, it is still a good way to live in death. If the emperor saw his good article with both passion and affection, he might be moved and spared his life.
But the more the smart man was at a critical moment, he became more confused. He begged for mercy and begged for mercy. But in order to explain that he had no choice, he relied on Liu Jin. This middle-aged handsome man in the capital was like a nervous short circuit. He actually gave Li Dongyang the example, saying that the chief minister of his cabinet invited Liu Jin to dinner, wrote poems for his birthday, flattering and flattering the power of the eunuch, let alone me?
He said this correctly. The person in Pandi is indeed older than him. The man is now a good official, but he is in prison, which sounds even more sympathetic. At least Dai Yi was deeply moved by reading his letter of repentance. He also specially added a meal to handsome Zhang that night, so Mr. Zhang Cai died of illness inexplicably the next morning.
Another smart man, Zhang Wenmian, is not very good at being a lie. Whether Liu Jin is corruption or rebellion, it seems that even a small person like him cannot become the main culprit, and there is no reason to die with him. Zhang Xiucai was squatting in prison and thought for a long time before he thought he was arrested as the main culprit. The only explanation is: people regard him as Liu Jin's think tank.
As a military advisor, who will you arrest if you don’t?
Zhang Wenmian, who always praised Liu Jin's military advisor, figured this out and immediately asked the messenger to invite Dai Yi Dai Factory to report it to him, saying that Liu Jin's military advisor's think tank was Lu Shijie, and he was a very famous talent. He asked Dai Chengong to arrest this person. He was just a friend of Liu Jin's niece's husband, so he asked him to do a job.
Dai Yi was very happy when he heard this, patted his shoulder and praised him for a few words, asking him to stay in prison with peace of mind, saying that under his leadership of Dai Yi, Dongchang is no longer a gate of hell, and no longer commits unjust, false and wrong cases. Dai Yi would not let a bad person go, nor would he blame a good person for being in vain. When the matter was revealed, he would release him.
In order to prove that what he said was true, Dai Yi did what he said and did what he did, he immediately raised Zhang Wenmian from a single cell in heavy prison, and sent him into an ordinary cell, and imprisoned him with more than a dozen prisoners. Zhang Wenmian was moved by tears. Unfortunately, although Zhang Xiucai met Dai Qingtian, his life was not good. It is said that in order to fight for the toilet that night, the other prisoners started to harshly and pressed Zhang Xiucai into the toilet and choked to death.
Liu Jin is not dead yet, these two smart people died earlier than Liu Jin.
However, Liu Jindi's death is approaching...
The emperor issued an order and sent a message to Liu Jin at the Wumen Court.
The Three Laws set up a prison hall outside the Meridian Gate. Six ministries and nine ministers tried Liu Jin and ordered many royal relatives and ministers to be listed together. Although Liu Jin was confused and uneasy in prison, he thought about it and finally couldn't figure out why the emperor changed his mind and wanted to publicly examine him.
The Jinyiwei mentioned Liu Jin and took him to the Wumen Gate. Liu Jin looked around and saw that it was the Three Laws in front of him. He walked over without panic. He looked around everyone with contempt and sneered: "Everyone here, I wonder who is trying me?"
Liu Jin was not afraid of death. He was so arrogant that he wanted to suppress the arrogance of the ministers with his momentum. No one dared to interrogate them. It would be best to force the emperor to come forward so that he could find out the reasons for the change in the emperor's mentality and plead in person to seek vitality.
Although these officials may not be his party, Liu Jin was in charge of the government affairs, especially during the official evaluation period, and handed over a few words and gifts. These things were somewhat groundless. When Liu Jin said this, these officials were ashamed and no one answered them.
When Liu Jin saw that he was even more courageous, he held his hands with shackles and laughed at the sky: "All the ministers and ministers in the court come from our family, who is qualified to review me?"
His words were a bit rampant. Strictly speaking, many officials were not considered officials who followed his path, but if they were to be lenient, Liu Jin had just presided over the assessment and re-appointment of officials, saying that all of these people came from his disciples. It seems that it is true.
The civil and military officials, and even the officials of the Three Laws, had a hot face. Although they knew that Liu Jin was now a prisoner, no one dared to criticize him under his power.
The Minister of Justice's face turned red and he wanted to scold him, but when he saw the Censorate, Dali Temple did not say anything, nor did he want to show his head. The Censorate and Dali Temple ministers also had their own ideas. The Ministry of Justice was punished by the world, the Censorate, and the Censorate, and the Dali Temple refuted the official position. The preliminary trial was the responsibility of the Ministry of Justice, so they naturally did not want to show up.
But in front of the civil and military affairs of the court, if Wang Hou Xunqing allowed a prisoner to be arrogant and before the Meridian Gate, wouldn't it be a decent for the royal family? The Minister of Justice had to bite the bullet and said softly: "Liu....Liu Jin, don't be arrogant."
Liu Jin snorted, dragged his shackles, and his shoulders were swaying from side to side, as if he was still the lord of the inner court. He strode to the Three Dharma Office, looked at him with a squint, and shouted coldly: "Come on the chair!"
I heard someone shouting loudly: "There is no need for a chair, just treat it first."
Then one person strode like a flying man and rushed to the front of the Three Laws. Two small yellow doors behind him were busy catching up and lowering the chairs he was carrying. The man smiled and sat up, crossed his legs, and said with a smile: "Eunuch Liu, what a great power, our family is not from yours, can you be tried?"
When Liu Jin saw that the person was Zhang Yong, he was really jealous of enemies. When he was powerful, Zhang Yong dared to fight with him in person, let alone now it is a phoenix with wings. How could Zhang Yong be afraid of him?
Liu Jin shook his iron shackles and roared and was about to pounce on him. Zhang Yong sat crossing his legs, raised an index point to point at him. The two lieutenants rushed out of the team of officers and soldiers who followed him and held Liu Jin tightly.
Zhang Yong said slowly: "Come on, sell your strength to the man and serve Eunuch Liu well."
The two lieutenants immediately pressed Liu Jin to the ground and waved their hands to let the yamen runners standing with sticks on both sides use punishment.
Liu Jin was furious and shouted: "Zhang Yong, how dare you, you, lynch your family?"
Zhang Yong rolled his eyes and said disdainfully: "Look, look, you are ignorant, you don't admit it yet. The Three Jurisdictions will be held torture the criminal first before the case will be tried. This is called miscellaneous governance. Just like when the people sue the official and sue him to Dali Temple, you have to roll the nails before your case will be accepted, right? How many adults?"
The Ministry of Justice, Censorate, and Dali Temple all bowed and said, "What Eunuch Zhang said is true."
Zhang Yong let out a loud voice, smiled and shouted: "Call me!"
Two yamen runners beat the stick. Liu Jin's butt was blooming. Liu Jin's teeth were tightly clenched, and he was unwilling to give in front of his old opponent. After the slap, the blood stained the red robe. Zhang Yong smiled and said, "The civil and military officials are the emperor's ministers. You said that from your disciple. This is a great rebellion. Only this end can condemn you!"
Zhang Yong asked: "I ask you, embezzle and accept bribes and extort money. But is there any?"
Liu Jin lowered his head and thought for a moment, Fang Hen raised his head and replied, "There is a land!"
Zhang Yong pointed to the stunned Sanfashi and shouted: "Remember. Liu Jin admitted to corruption!"
Then he asked again: "How many are you fighting against the loyal and kind?"
Liu Jin sneered: "What is loyalty and kindness?"
Zhang Yong smiled and said, "Then you have cracked down on the officials who framed and impeached you and refused to vassalize you, but there is a land?"
Liu Jin replied barely without thinking, “Some”.
Zhang Yong pointed again: "Remember, Liu Jin admitted to cracking down on and excluding officials in the court who refused to be sad about the tiger."
Zhang Yongyi asked Zhao Crazy's thirty serious crimes and sixty minor crimes from childhood to adulthood. In order to avoid the suffering of flesh and blood, Liu Jin could not die before he could meet the emperor, and he agreed readily until Zhang Yong asked, "You have kept hundreds of generals in your private life, and there are some weapons and armor hidden in the mansion?"
Liu Jin was stunned and said, "Our family business is very big. If we recruit some generals to protect the hospital, we will have land. But... what are we going to do with weapons and armor? How can we do this?"
Zhang Yong sneered: "There are countless soldiers and weapons found from your mansion. Do you still want to deny them?"
Liu Jin was stunned for a while and suddenly struggled desperately. He roared: "Old Zhang Yong, you are the one who hurt me! You must be the one who hurt me. How could I have ever collected weapons and armor?"
Zhang Yong laughed and said, "I found many weapons and armor from the secret area of your mansion. This matter was seen by the emperor with his own eyes. Can it be fake?"
He turned around and said, "Remember, Liu Jin admitted that he had privately acquired a family general and could not deny the hidden weapons and armor."
Liu Jin was so angry that he almost exploded. He forced his refusal to sue him and accused him of being accused of it. Once upon a time, he was a common trick of harming all officials, excluding other people and retaliating against him. Now, he was countered by others by his own way. Only then did he realize the feeling of resentment, grief and anger.
His heart was even more filled with fear and fear, because he finally knew why the emperor changed his mind and tried him in the Meridian Gate Court. This time he was really finished. His opponent also understood the principle that he would be in danger of killing a snake. He wanted to punish him to death.
Liu Jin struggled desperately, but he had no strength to fight harder than the strong armored captain? Liu Jin supported the ground with both hands and shouted sadly at the palace gate: "Emperor! Your Majesty save me! Your Majesty save me!"
"I ask you, your mansion has hidden a round fan in the agency, but you are deliberately trying to assassinate the Lord?"
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, I am Liu Jin, the emperor!" Liu Jin thrust the ground and cried, tears rolling.
"Remember, Liu Jin just cried bitterly and dared not deny it!"
In the prince's uterus, Emperor Zhengde wore a mysterious robe and was very anxious to play the piano.
The sound of the piano was full of desolation. Miao Kui and Dai Yi stood behind, holding their breath without saying a word.
Suddenly, the strings of the piano broke and the sound of the string stopped. Emperor Zhengde stopped and floated half a foot above the piano. Slowly, a drop of red blood slowly dripped down and fell on the piano with a 'click'.
Miao Kui, Dai Yi's body trembled and he hurriedly leaned forward, but Zhengde shouted loudly: "Get out!"
The two were startled and stood there and dared not move anymore. Emperor Zhengde stared at his fingertips, and looked at the slowly condensed blood beads on his lips. A helpless smile suddenly appeared on his lips: "People's hearts are unpredictable, and their desires are unfulfilled. I treat Liu Jin well. Why do you think he treats me like this?"
The two of them were stuttering and couldn't answer. Zhengde's eyes flashed and he suddenly asked, "Where is Yang Ling? Where is he?"
Dai Yi replied softly: "Go back to the emperor, Duke Wei stayed at home after the emperor summoned him, and even the officials who went to visit the place of visit were not seen."
Zhengde sighed quietly and said quietly: "Did Yang Qing blame me for listening to slander and putting him in his house? Or... because of Liu Jin's affairs, he was worried that I would have a good relationship with him?"
The two of them were worried and dared not answer. Zhengde was stunned for a while before he said firmly: "No, Yang Qing will never let me down. We will never let me down forever, our monarch and ministers, our friends for a lifetime... and our brothers for a lifetime, we will never let me down."
This is the prince's uterus where he lived when he was young. Zhengde was in a state of great excitement and could not control himself, so he even changed his name. He no longer called himself me. Liu Jin was conspiring to kill him with such trust. This incident was too stimulating to him. He said it firmly, not so much that he was absolutely trusting Yang Ling, but rather firm in his beliefs. Zhu Houzhao, who always values love and friendship, could no longer withstand the blow of another betrayal.
Dai Yi and Miao Kui hurriedly said: "The emperor is wise, what the emperor said."
Zhengde smiled and asked, "Am I wise? I will regard a treacherous person as a close relative and trustworthy person. I will keep him by my side for so long and trust him absolutely?"
He closed his eyes slowly and sighed sadly: "I have no doubts about Yang Qing, but he avoided the door and avoided suspicion. That was a rift against me. He was worried that I would even be suspicious of him. The demons in my heart have already arisen, and friendship is no longer..... Staying with the king is like a tiger. Accompanying with the king is like a tiger. The king is destined to be lonely? He should never have friends, no trustworthy people...?"
A drop of blood fell from the fingertips, and two tears also slid off the cheeks of the young emperor.
He holds the greatest power in the world, but emotionally, there are not many people he can get close to and rely on. The two closest people in his heart, one betrayed him, and the other escaped him from a distance to avoid suspicion. That feeling of emptiness and sadness filled his chest.
"I. Don't be alone!" Zhu Houzhao raised his hand angrily, and the guqin in front of him was thrown out by him. He rolled away with dingdong dong, and the broken voice was just like his wounded heart at this moment.
Suddenly, a little yellow gate walked over on tiptoe and said tremblingly: "Emperor... Emperor, Duke Wei Guo is asking for a meeting!"
Zhengde suddenly looked up when he heard this, his eyes were filled with ecstasy, relief, and relief.
Dai Yi and Miao Kui sighed together, and a relaxed smile appeared on their faces.
A scholar in the green robe came gracefully in Zhengde's slightly hazy gaze. He was wearing a round neckline, a big sleeve robe with a moon-white square scarf, a slender figure, a face as if he was as elegant as a jade crown, and a gentle and elegant style. Zhengde felt a dazed in his mind, and suddenly he seemed to have returned to the first meeting in the prince's womb two years ago...
"Yang Shidu!" he called out and blurted out.
Zhengde called happily, although there were tears in his eyes, a smile appeared on his face, a smile that was truly from the heart.
At this moment, the hearts of the two men reunited again, which was a kind of brotherhood that transcended the monarch and ministers’ ranks and subordinates. In today's world, only Yang Ling can give him this feeling.
"I have learned the skills of flute from my sister Yixian, but my attainments are not high. Since the emperor is elegant, I will show my ugly appearance. How about playing a song with the emperor?"
"Okay! What song is played?"
"Just like the song written by the emperor... "Killing Border Music"!"
Dai Yi and Miao Kui saw the opportunity and quickly took out a handful of jade zither and bamboo flute from the room.
To be continued...
