Chapter 90: The Confused Imperial History
A royal historian of the Metropolitan Procuratorate loudly denounced the crown prince's rebellion at night, anyway, he just wanted to pull Zhu Cihong to the rebellion.
Zhu Cihong sneered at this and said, "This palace is rebellious? Is there something wrong with your brain that you can't afford to treat? The eight major Jin merchants colluded with Jiannu, and the evidence is conclusive. ”
This official was even more annoyed by the public humiliation, and in that long speech, Zhu Cihong was guilty of killing the officials of the imperial court, and Chongzhen on the throne was so angry that his face turned pale.
Zhu Cihong just smiled coldly and said: "His Majesty Father ordered me not to touch officials above the fourth grade, this palace has already given you a lot of face, don't be embarrassed!" ”
The official said angrily: "What does Your Highness mean, this is to suspect that we can't collude with that traitorous Jin businessman?" ”
Zhu Cihong came to him, glanced at him, and asked, "What's your name?" ”
The official snorted, and even shook his feet arrogantly, and said: "The right hand of the Imperial Court of the Imperial Palace, is it possible that His Royal Highness also wants to kill me?" ”
Zhu Cihong ignored him, just reached out and touched it in his arms, and then took it out, and the officials looked at the crown prince curiously, not knowing what he was looking for, Chongzhen was also curious.
Not long after, everyone saw the crown prince take out a large stack of documents from his arms, and after opening it, it was more than a meter long.
Zhu Cihong searched for a long time on the paperwork, and finally found the name of this Wei Dan.
Zhu Cihong glanced at the imperial historian, and read: "Wei Dan, the fourth year of the Apocalypse, the second year of Chongzhen as the head of the household department, and the sixth year of Chongzhen as the right of the Imperial History of the Imperial Inspectorate, in the past three years, a total of 120 impeachment chapters, a total of 43 officials of all sizes have been impeached. ”
Zhu Cihong stopped, looked at the imperial history surnamed Wei with some surprise, and secretly said that this thing is very good, this is simply who is arrested!
Wei Dan heard others reading his achievements, he naturally raised his head, and looked quite proud, he had been doing imperial history for three years, if he didn't go to a hundred and eighty impeachment recital, he would be embarrassed to say hello to his colleagues when he went out.
Looking at the appearance of this imperial historian, Zhu Cihong smiled secretly in his heart, and he will make you cry later, he continued to read: "In the seventh year of Chongzhen, Wei Dan entrusted Jia Wei Wushuang to buy a mansion in the outer city, worth five thousand three hundred taels of silver; In the eighth year of Chongzhen, Wei Dan's father, Wei Dalu, opened three grain shops in Xintaicang, Dongcheng, worth 9,000 taels of silver;
In the ninth year of Chongzhen, Wei Dan's wife Yu Shi placed a high-end jade shop in Mingyufang, Xicheng, worth 26,000 taels of silver, in addition, Wei Dan has 3,000 acres of land in his hometown of Yuncheng, Shanxi, two mansions, and seven shops......"
Wei Dan, who was originally quite proud in his heart, heard Zhu Cihong read these things, his eyes straightened, and his heart suddenly cooled, and the more he listened, the more frightened he became.
Chongzhen on the throne slapped the armrest violently, and his right hand was numb but he couldn't take care of it, he said angrily: "Wei Dan! Where do you get all this money? ”
His old bottom was revealed, and Wei Dan knew that he had no luck, so he could only kneel on the ground, trembling and silent.
Zhu Cihong said: "Your Majesty Father, this Wei Dan's ancestral home is Shanxi, and he has been bought by the eight Jin merchants when he was one of them, and the silver that the profiteers give him every year is very rich, so he has been speaking for those traitors." ”
Looking at Wei Dan, who was kneeling on the ground and silent, Chongzhen knew that he had confessed his guilt, and his heart was even more angry, and he said angrily: "Right Yu Shi Wei Dan, corruption is serious, and the king is bullied!" Wearing brocade clothes, Wei raided his house, peeled the skin and grass according to the standard set by Emperor Taizu Gao, and hung it in the West Market! ”
When Wei Dan heard this, his brain was stunned all of a sudden, and the real person was paralyzed on the ground, and the feces and urine were all over the robe.
Zuo Shilang of the Criminal Department said: "Your Majesty, the punishment of skinning has been forbidden by the ancestors, and it must not be practiced again!" ”
"Peel! You have to cut off your head first and then peel it! Whoever pleads for the same sin! Chongzhen roared angrily, so frightened that the officials no longer dared to dissuade him.
Zhu Cihong laughed in his heart, this emperor Lao Tzu's acting skills are really good, this is really an actor who has been delayed by the throne.
Peeling the skin and grass, that is, peeling off the human skin as a whole, filling the grass into the skin, and making an adult fur bag, I was panicked when I thought about it, and I was stunned by the whole matter of the guard, who would dare to intervene in the entire Metropolitan Procuratorate, and even Tang Shiji, who had memorized the lines and was ready to answer the guard, was stunned, and couldn't help but shrink back.
Seeing that no one spoke, Zhu Cihong slowly folded the paperwork and said casually: "If it weren't for the kindness of His Majesty Father and Emperor and his reluctance to expand the matter, would any of you still be able to ask such questions in front of this palace?" ”
Saying that, he also deliberately walked in front of Tang Shiji and glanced at him meaningfully, what Tang Shiji said outside the noon gate was secretly recorded and passed to Zhu Cihong by the little eunuch guarding the noon gate.
Not only Tang Shiji, but many of the ministers present were a little restless, looking at the pamphlet in Zhu Cihong's hand with burning eyes and some fear.
Wen Tiren swept around the crowd, saw everything in his eyes, and said slowly: "How does Your Highness know these things?" Did His Majesty restore the Jinyiwei's reconnaissance authority? ”
Jiang is still old and spicy, Wen Tiren said this, and the ministers stopped doing it, what do you mean? What about the permission to revoke the factory guard's ability to monitor hundreds of officials? Why is it here again? What about the trust between kings and ministers?
The ministers began to talk a little, and the eyes that looked at Zhu Cihong and Chongzhen were a little strange, very dissatisfied, and very unhappy!
Chongzhen was also a little anxious, he glanced at Zhu Cihong, also a little puzzled, and wanted him to explain.
"You old thing, you can really turn it around!" Zhu Cihong cursed Wen Tiren in his heart, and at the same time, he also knew that if this matter was not explained clearly, he would not be able to mix well in the future, and it would not be an exaggeration to be an enemy in the court.
Who wants to live under the surveillance of others every day, receive a gift on New Year's Day, go to a green building on weekdays and let a sister be known, who can be happy?
Zhu Cihong said: "This palace can lead 5,000 brave guards to kill tens of thousands of slaves, not only because of the well-trained, brave and good warriors of the brave guard battalion, but also because of the extremely capable Long Xiang in his hand, he is especially good at collecting intelligence at night, Wen Ge Lao won't know, right?" ”
Zhu Cihong could only put the intelligence on Long Xiang Yebu, he continued: "Long Xiang of my Yongwei battalion will not accept it at night, and dare to go deep into the Jiannu army within five miles to investigate, what is this information!" ”
"So, Your Highness is using the night in the army to collect the Inspectorate?" Wen Tiren still said calmly.
Zhu Cihong frowned and said: "What is this old Wen Ge, I, Long Xiang, am mainly responsible for investigating the enemy's military situation, cutting off the head of the Tartar to receive the reward, respecting and loyalty for the country, and I don't have so much spare time to take care of your family's on weekdays!" ”
Zhu Cihong reopened the booklet, held it in one hand, and said: "As for this thing, it is some evidence that was inadvertently found in the Jin merchants when the palace asked Ye not to collect evidence to investigate and collect evidence of collaborating with the enemy Jin merchants, and the people listed above are all people who colluded with the collaborators this time, and the amount of bribes received is recorded everywhere. ”
Zhu Cihong said: "However, almost all of the people listed above have been arrested by the Jinyi Guard, and the remaining people, I think His Majesty the Emperor is merciful and does not want to pursue too much, I hope that some people will do their own thing, work hard to do a good job for the court, and atone for their sins!" ”
As he spoke, he took out a fire fold from his body, lit the paperwork on the spot, and burned it to the ground.
