Chapter 415: Interrogation (Two Shifts in One)
Jin Yiwei can be described as the nemesis of civil officials in the Ming Dynasty, and every official will be invited to Beizhen Fusi for tea.
The high-minded appearance on weekdays suddenly disappeared, and you can not be scared on the spot, even if you are a man. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
After Lin Yanchao was stunned at first, he calmed down and said, "Jinyiwei? Show me your waist cards! β
The two brocade guards glanced at each other, and one said: "Call you, you will go, what are you talking about?" β
The other man came up and tried to force his hand.
Lin Yanchao took a step back and shouted: "What are you doing, this is the palace inside, I am a six-rank Hanlin, I entered the cabinet to do things, can't I even look at the waist card, you dare to move me in front of the public!" β
Lin Yanchao shouted, and immediately surprised several passing eunuchs. Several people stopped to look, but Lin Yanchao looked vigilant and wanted to make a big deal about it.
The anger on the faces of these two people passed, but they didn't expect Lin Yanchao to be not afraid at all. One said: "Lin Xiu, this is not good for you." β
Another said: "That's it, don't be angry, show him it, if it makes a big fuss, it won't look good." β
After saying that, the person who persuaded him took out his waist card and handed it to Lin Yanchao. Lin Yanchao saw that the other party took out a bronze medal, and he knew it in his heart.
The lowest-level wrestler in the brocade guard, the captain uses a wooden card. Bronze medals are used for small flags, general flags, etc. The silver medal is used by the senior military attache of Jinyiwei, and it is used by more than 1,000 deputy households.
Lin Yanchao looked at the other party's wooden card and knew that this person was a hundred households of Jinyi Wei, named Zhang Yunda.
"You can come with us!"
Lin Yanchao looked at the other person: "And your waist card." β
The man laughed instead of being angry: "In front of Jinyiwei, I am the first person to see such a bold civil official as you. β
"Then you'll see it today." Lin Yanchao smiled.
"Okay!" The other party's eyes showed a fierce color, and he took out the waist card at the moment. Lin Yanchao saw that it was a silver medal, and the other party was the deputy Qianhu of Jinyiwei, named He Guan.
"It turns out that the two of them are really brocade guards, and they are being rude."
A sneer appeared on both of their faces, looking like you are now done begging for mercy. He Guan said: "Since this is the case, Lin Xiu has invited it." β
"Do you need me to go to the cabinet and report to the cabinet and hand over the general affairs?"
"It's not necessary, we have our own arrangements."
"Alright, I'll go with you."
At that moment, Lin Yanchao followed the two Jinyi Wei military attachΓ©s all the way to the west gate of the capital.
Lin Yanchao walked to a row of group houses.
Lin Yanchao knew that the group room outside the West Gate was the place where the inner court copied the military position and posted it yellow.
On weekdays, there is a director of the military department, a servant of the imperial history, and an official of the Hanlin Palace.
Seeing Jin Yiwei bring himself to this place, Lin Yanchao breathed a sigh of relief, if he really went to Beizhen Fusi, then things would be really difficult to handle.
This group of rooms is only open for business at 369 hours, and is usually closed, but today it came in handy.
When Lin Yanchao arrived, he happened to meet Yu Zhongshu, but seeing the other party's depressed look, it was obvious that after being invited by Jinyiwei, the fright he suffered was not light at all.
Lin Yanchao and Yu Zhongshu glanced at each other, and Lin Yanchao suddenly felt a sense of sympathy for the difficult brothers. It is estimated that Yu Zhongshu also felt sympathy for Lin Yanchao when he saw it.
At this time, Dan saw the door of a group room open, and an official walked out.
Lin Yanchao couldn't help but be surprised when he saw this person, this person was Lin Yanchao's old acquaintance! And when the other party walked out of the door, he saw Lin Yanchao with a surprised face.
That's right, this person is Zhou Yixian, the former Hou Guanzhi County, or the examiner of Lin Yanchao County's exam. But later, Lin Yanchao remembered that the other party was in the middle of the matter.
In the matter, he is from the seventh grade, although the official position is not as good as himself, but there is a relationship between teachers and students, Lin Yanchao still has to call himself a waiter when he sees the other party.
When I first met Zhou Yixian, the other party was still the official of his parents, and he looked like he was in control of the life and death of the people, and he looked very hanging. But now he also looks like a prisoner, his face is very pale, and his hair is scattered, but he has been a parent official for a term, which is much better than Yu Zhongshu and others who have never seen the world.
On this occasion, Lin Yanchao did not rashly greet Zhou Yi first, and the other party did not mean this.
So Lin Yanchao was taken by Zhang He and the two brocade guards to the house where Zhou Yi came out first.
In the room, there was only an old table, a few old chairs, and a corner mark on the floor, which showed that it was originally a cabinet, but it was removed.
Lin Yanchao sat on the chair, Deputy Qianhu He Guan sat down in front of Lin Yanchao across the public case, and the other person stood behind Lin Yanchao.
He Guan asked, "Do you know what we are looking for you?" β
Lin Yanchao said: "I don't know." β
He Guan sneered and said, "I really don't know? The day before yesterday, Jifu-sama summoned you to his room for interrogation, don't you remember? You have a deliberate intention to conceal it, and at present, this official is not here to truthfully recruit from beginning to end. β
Lin Yanchao said: "I know what you said, but when I left, Lord Cifu had an explanation, so I didn't tell anyone about the things in the room, so I can't tell you, but I don't have the intention to hide it." If you don't believe it, you can confront your secondary. β
He Guan was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Zhang Siwei to explain this sentence to Lin Yanchao, so it was okay for Lin Yanchao to say that he didn't know.
In the confrontation of this sentence, He Guan was defeated. He Guan has seen many officials who have been arrested in Jinyiwei, but none of them are as calm as Lin Yanchao.
These officials are usually high on top and accustomed to being flattered, but when they are suddenly imprisoned by the Jinyi guards, it is like falling from the clouds and falling to the ground, such a huge contrast that they can't bear for a while.
Therefore, when they were interrogated by Jinyiwei, they were tantamount to being stripped of the skin on their previous bodies and exposing their vulnerable side to others.
The official collapsed to crying, all kinds of gaffes, and confided in the bad things he had done since he became an official, one by one, without reservation, this is what Jinyiwei sees.
On the contrary, it was those Jiangyang thieves, they often committed crimes, and after they were caught, they denied it many times, making it difficult for these brocade guards to pry their mouths open.
And now Lin Yanchao is acting like these habitual offenders.
However, He Guan was also relieved, after all, Lin Yanchao was still young, and the people at this time were very sharp, so he showed that he was not afraid. Just knock him down.
He Guan immediately changed his tone and said: "Since you don't want to say it, then this official will ask you directly." Do you know talented people? β
Lin Yanchao asked rhetorically, "What person?" β
"It's the one who walked out of this room a moment ago."
"You're talking about Zhou Shizhong, it turned out to be my parents' official in my hometown, and the examiner who ordered me during the county exam."
He Guan stared at Lin Yanchao, of course he knew the relationship between Lin Yanchao and Zhou Yixian, and he deliberately let Zhou Yixian go out to meet Lin Yanchao first, which was also his move, to see if the two were related.
"Then why did you just meet and pretend not to know each other?"
Lin Yanchao replied truthfully: "That's because I haven't seen Zhou Shizhong for many years, not to mention that it's really embarrassing to meet on this occasion, and I don't want to say hello." β
"Oh, is it? Zhou Shizhong is your examiner, why didn't you come to visit after you won the champion? And you are all straight to the inner court, the distance between the six science corridors and Wenyuan Pavilion is only a thousand steps, you said that you have never seen Zhou Shizhong once, this is absolutely impossible, you are lying! β
Lin Yanchao was furious when he heard this, but this anger passed away.
He wants to interrogate this matter is psychological warfare, even if he is innocent, but his joy and anger cannot be grasped.
So Lin Yanchao said lightly: "It's been less than ten days since I entered the Zhiwen Yuan Pavilion, and I haven't been to the Six Science Corridors once, how can I see Zhou Shizhong." Besides, after I won the champion, I also went to Zhou Shizhongfu to pay a visit, but the other party was not there at the time, just voted for the post, and I was busy with business later, and I never saw it again. β
Lin Yanchao's reaction was seen by He Guan. Lin Yanchao, Yu Zhongshu, Zhou Shizhong, and another person in the six departments and the other person in the six departments are all important people related to the cabinet leak case.
But seeing Lin Yanchao's answer and the interrogation in the matter just now, it seems that he ruled out the possibility of the two secretly colluding. But Lin Yanchao is obviously innocent, but he can endure being 'wronged' by himself and not break out, which is in stark contrast to the other party's hard support for himself everywhere.
He Guan knew in his heart that it seemed that he had hit a hard nail, Lin Yanchao's city mansion was very deep, so he couldn't grasp it at all, what the other party thought in his heart, this interrogation made him feel very tricky.
He Guan said: "You have no basis for what you say, whether it is right or not, this official will find out clearly." β
Lin Yanchao said a good word and didn't follow.
He Guan adjusted his sitting posture and asked the trial hundred households to bring Lin Yanchao a cup of tea.
Just as Lin Yanchao took the tea and was about to drink it, He Guan suddenly asked: "Lin Xiuxiu, have you ever sold the news to foreign officials after you entered the cabinet?" β
He Guan's sudden questioning made Lin Yanchao's action of holding tea in his hand stop, but then he resumed drinking tea and did not immediately respond to He Guan's question.
Lin Yanchao thought about how to answer in his mind by drinking tea, if he told the truth, Lin Yanchao must have sold it to the outer court, no, he just received Chen Zhiwen's one thousand taels.
It is definitely not okay for the inner court officials to sell the news to the outer court, this is the rule on the surface.
But in fact, most of the cabinet officials did not abide by this rule, and no one had any personal contacts and made extra money, so they couldn't help it. So the elders acquiesced that it was okay to sell the news to the outer court, but as long as they did not disclose the news of important official documents such as marching and fighting, this was the unspoken rule.
Lin Yanchao sold the news to Chen Zhiwen, which is a violation of the clear rules, but not the unspoken rules.
But this time, the case of Qingzhang Tianmu leaking secrets not only broke the rules on the surface, but also broke the unspoken rules, so it had to be rehandled.
If He Guan asked, Lin Yanchao, have you leaked the news of the Qingzhang Tianmu system, of course Lin Yanchao replied no.
But He Guan didn't ask this, but asked Lin Yanchao if he had leaked the news to the court, so asking was to correct Lin Yanchao's pigtails.
Jinyiwei is known to be pervasive, and Lin Yanchao doesn't know how much information the other party has.
Lin Yanchao took a sip of the tea, then put it down and replied very simply: "No, as an official of the imperial court, how could I do such a thing of knowing the law and breaking the law." β
Just kidding, confessing leniently, sitting in prison, resisting strictly, going home for the New Year, Lin Yanchao knows.
He Guan knocked on the table and said: "Good Lin Xiu, you pushed things away, if you don't tell the truth, do you really think that my Jinyiwei eats dry rice?" β
Lin Yanchao said: "I really don't have this matter. β
Seeing that Lin Yanchao denied it, He Guan immediately stood up and walked to Lin Yanchao's side, lowered his body and said: "Lin Xiu, tell you the truth, we all know your affairs clearly, and we invite you to question, but it depends on your attitude, if you really have a clear conscience, what if you tell the truth, then the official will intercede for you above, don't toast and don't eat and drink!" β
Hard can't be changed, change to soft one?
Lin Yanchao said in his heart, he has a clear conscience in this matter, and he is not afraid of how the other party will check him, so don't be like those officials, who are so scared that they don't know anything when they see Jinyiwei, just recruit them all like beans in a bamboo tube.
So Lin Yanchao said: "Thank you for your kindness, but I really didn't do a good job, where do you want me to start." β
Syllable!
He Guan slapped the table and said angrily: "Okay, so don't blame this official for being ruthless!" Chen Zhiwen, do you know? β
At this moment, Lin Yanchao also has to admire Jinyiwei's efficiency, your sister, you have even dug out this matter, it seems that you have worked hard on me!
Lin Yanchao replied: "Yes." β
Seeing Lin Yanchao's admission, He Guan's face suddenly showed a victor's smile, and he asked at the moment: "Does Chen Zhiwen have a silver ticket for you to give you a thousand taels?" β
"Nope!" Lin Yanchao categorically denied it.
Seeing Lin Yanchao denying it again, the other party immediately went crazy, he asked to this extent, and even said how many taels of silver tickets Chen Zhiwen gave Lin Yanchao, obviously he knew a certain degree about this matter, and Lin Yanchao actually dared not admit it.
"It's so daring, it's not okay to teach you a lesson." He Guan suddenly pulled his face down.
"Wait." Lin Yanchao suddenly spoke.
"Why do you have to admit it now?" He Guan asked.
Lin Yanchao smiled and said: "I don't want to admit it, but if He Qianhu has the heart to know, which of the officials in the inner court have fornicated information to the outer court, I do know, how do you want me to tell you?" You will give it to the Son of Heaven and do it together. β
When Lin Yanchao heard this, He Guan immediately gasped.
Lin Yanchao's meaning is very obvious, if you dare to deal with me for this matter and let me lose my office, then good, I will stab this matter to the Son of Heaven, who these people are, I know in my heart, how I lost my official position, I also want them to lose their official position.
If you want to do it, I can't do it alone, but you have to do it together. If you only deal with me, then I will go to sue the royal court and let them lose my official position with me, and then these people will not blame me Lin Yanchao, but will blame you He Guan, because he broke the rules first.
Which of these people does not have a background, and if they really want to take revenge on He Guan, He Guan will definitely end up worse than them.
That's me finished, and you have to be finished.
"He Qianhu, do you dare to listen to the names of these people?" Lin Yanchao said.
He Guan was speechless for a moment.
Lin Yanchao looked at the other party and sneered: "He Qianhu, do you dare or not!" You give me a word! Don't dare! (To be continued.) )
