In the interrogation room of Fusi in Jinyi Weibei Town, the lights were bright. The presiding judge, Jin Yiwei and Tongzhi, sat behind the public case. Smiling - squinting at Zhu Yushi who was howling on the ground. His back and ass were covered with blood.

"Ahh

Zhu Hongfei was beaten quite miserably by the twenty sticks of killing, and the two Jinyi guard captains skillfully clamped them with sticks to make Zhu Hongfei kneel.

Wei Tongzhi smiled and said: "Zhu Dayushi, let's talk about it, why did Jia Huan let you stand up for the King of Jin?" Could it be that he wants to rebel? ”

Zhu Hongfei has dark skin, but after being the imperial history in the past few years, he has been in the limelight, and his figure has long been blessed. At this time, the cloak was scattered, and the expression on his face was already painfully distorted, and he refuted: "I took the concerto." What does it have to do with Jia Ziyu? I am a speaker, why should I not write and speak? The crown prince is the foundation of the country, and it should be decided early. King Jin is the second son of the Son of Heaven, and he is the candidate for the crown prince. Since ancient times, there are grandchildren, and there are no grandchildren! ”

Wei Tongzhi clapped his hands, "Smack!" Syllable! Syllable! The applause was very harsh, "Lord Zhu is worthy of being an official, with sharp teeth and sharp mouth!" Hit again! ”

In the interrogation room, the officials wrote, and the four Jinyi guards in charge of the torture hung Zhu Hongfei on the wall and executed him with a whip soaked in water.

Another round of torture.

After it was over, Zhu Hongfei was put down and lay on the ground panting for breath. Wei Tongzhi waved his hand, let the scribe out, and continued to smile: "How does it taste?" Zhu Yanyang, our Jinyi Wei dared to arrest you in the Teaching Workshop Division, of course, there is evidence of your violation. Otherwise, by tomorrow, the court officials will inevitably boil. ”

Jinyiwei, as an extension of imperial power, is a natural opponent of civil officials. Jin Yiwei arrested Yushi, there is no reason to say the past, and tomorrow will definitely provoke a fierce backlash from civil officials. Scholars will surely write to the Son of Heaven.

Zhu Hongfei said: "I am the imperial history, in charge of the imperial court's laws and disciplines, and I do things above board, what evidence is there..."

Wei Tongzhi smiled predictively and interrupted Zhu Hongfei's words, "Including, you use your identity as a royal historian to help merchants do things and collect other people's black money?" ”

Zhu Hongfei was stunned.

He had close contacts with businessmen, and it was inevitable that there would be some power and money transactions. Otherwise, his family is poor, and when he can't drink the northwest wind for a few years, where can he marry a beautiful concubine with three rooms like flowers and jade, and buy a house? Jia Huan had warned him, but he was still secretly doing these things. I don't want to, I was found out by Jinyiwei at this time.

Wei Tongzhi said lightly: "You can't escape being dismissed from your charges." I think you're still recruiting. lest flesh and skin suffer! Raise your fingers, "The official is more interested in Jia Huan's dealings with King Jin. ”

Zhu Hongfei is not a stupid person, and he still doesn't understand what is going on until the interrogation, that is the IQ problem. Gritted his teeth, he said, "I don't know what you're talking about. What can Jia Ziyu and King Jin do? ”

Wei Tongzhi smiled predictably, "I know you have a good relationship with Jia Huan." Hit again! ”

…

…

Two hours later, Wei Tongzhi walked into the lobby where the commander Xing You was with a gloomy face, and in the middle of the night, even in the summer, there seemed to be a cold atmosphere in Beizhen Fusi.

"How?" Xing You, who was sitting on the top chair, put the tea bowl on the table and asked.

Wei Tongzhi shook his head and said, "He refused to confess to Jia Huan." ”

Xing You raised his eyebrows and raised his voice: "Old Wei, you are also an old man in Weizhong, just this means?" If the things that the Son of Heaven has explained can't be done, what are the consequences, don't you know? Didn't you tell him that this was the middle order? ”

Wei Tongzhi was dissatisfied in his heart, and said stiffly: "I said it." But he still refused to confess anything related to Jia Huan. "You can do it, you can do it. That kid has a hard temper! Just now he scolded him: "Grandson, come to your grandfather!" Come on! Come! ”

To tell the truth, he has been in Jinyiwei for so many years, and it is the first time he has encountered a civil official with such hard bones. It is very similar to Yang Jisheng, the first tough guy in the Ming Dynasty. He remembered what his husband taught him when he was a child, and Zeng Zi said: I am three times a day, and I am not loyal? Making friends and not believing them?

Many times a day, I ask myself: Are I doing my best to do things for others? Are you honest in your dealings with friends?

Xing You glanced at Wei Tongzhi coldly, got up, and went to the interrogation room.

…

…

The news in the capital has always been impossible to hide from people. Even in the middle of the night, the message was a little slow, but in the case of Jinyiwei deliberately leaking the news, the news spread quickly!

In the palace of the king of Chu in the east of the city, the king of Chu sent Bai Shangshu away before he slept, and meditated on his situation alone in the study.

At this time, the news was sent in by Eunuch He, and the King of Chu looked at the light rain outside the window, and couldn't help laughing, "Haha! Ha ha! ”

This is the countermeasure that Bai Shangshu said. And it worked! Jia Huan is dead.

Jia Huan designed him again and again, and Han Jin died in Jinyiwei. Now, he has finally been pitted out by his supporter Bai Shangshu. Obviously, Jia Huan was too active, and Bai Shangshu's secret folds successfully made him arouse the jealousy of the Son of Heaven. Judging from the method, I am afraid that the Son of Heaven has killing intent.

It's just that the Son of Heaven can't kill ministers without permission, especially poets like Jia Huan, who have a high reputation in Shilin. There has to be a reason. Presumably, tomorrow morning, Jin Yiwei will give the perfect reason!

…

…

The long night slowly flowed away. In Xiyun Hall, all kinds of negative emotions wrapped everyone's hearts: What should I do if Zhu Hongfei confesses? Can you trust him? Will the situation get out of hand? If Jia Huan is killed, what will happen to the team of Wendao Academy?

And so on...

Jin Yiwei's actions, in the eyes of the discerning people in the capital, it is not difficult to interpret the deep meaning behind it. Jia Huan's trouble is big! You must know that Jinyiwei represents the will of the Son of Heaven! However, in the city, the courtiers and magnates who were concerned about the battle for the succession did not send messengers to each other to inquire about the news. There is nothing new under the sun. When the eyes of the Son of Heaven are concerned, dare to "commit crimes against the wind"? Don't think that Jinyiwei can't find out!

In the capital, some people related to Jia Huan are thinking about various situations. Wei Hong, meditating in the study, only slept for a small meeting one night. Then go out and go to the court. After Zhang Anbo, the imperial historian of Zuodu, got the news, he was stunned for a long time...

Ning Xiao got up early in the morning and heard the latest news, but she didn't speak for a while. Zhen Family, Yan Wangfu, Zhao Mansion, Beijing Palace, Xiping County Palace....and so on. Jia Huan is the master node in a large network.

The mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings!

…

…

The sky was white, and then it gradually brightened. In the Xiyun Hall, the candles are blown out. Qian Huai came in and asked if he wanted to have breakfast.

Jia Huan got up and said to Pang Ze with a calm expression: "Start the most urgent plan." Everyone takes turns on duty. I'm going to go sleep for a while. If King Jin sends someone, notify me immediately. ”

Pang Ze rubbed his big nose and said with a wry smile: "Ziyu, when King Jin gets the news, I'm afraid he won't send someone to talk to us about bargaining chips." ”

Jia Huan nodded and walked out of Xiyun Hall steadily. In his heart, are you afraid? Fear! However, he will not sit still.

Even if the Son of Heaven wants to kill him, he will resist! Killing him is for a reason, for time. And the people who affect the judgment of the Son of Yongzhi are not only Bai Zhang, but also others! For example, Empress Yang.

He played games back then, and he never surrendered!

…

…

May 25 finally came. At about seven o'clock in the morning, the gossip in the various yamen flew around, and the news spread rapidly.

At around nine o'clock, Xu Yan, the chief eunuch of the eunuch, sent the little eunuch to Jinyiwei to urge the results. The commander of Jinyiwei made Xing You reluctantly take the results of the interrogation to the Xiyuan Imperial Study to ask to see the Son of Heaven.

After more than two months of careful recuperation, the physical condition of Yongzhi Tianzi has obviously improved, and he is standing in the study to paint. Dugu Guiren accompanied him by the side. Seeing that he was going to discuss matters, Dugu Guiren was very sensible and said goodbye and left.

"Your Majesty." Xing You bowed and handed over the result.

Yongzhi Tianzi's face instantly became gloomy. Jin Yiwei did not get the desired confession from Zhu Hongfei. "That's it? Xing You, what face do you have to meet me? Yes? The Emperor of Yongzhi was very angry and threw the chapter on Xing You's face.

In Bai Zhang's letter to the Son of Yongzhi, he said a lot of bad things about Jia Huan: Every time there is a dispute, there must be this person. Please ask Your Majesty to kill this fang to determine the situation of the court! And Zhu Hongfei's recital just verifies this. The Son of Yongzhi had murderous intent towards Jia Huan in his heart.

He is already old, wants to live a peaceful life for a few years, and does not want to toss. As for the establishment of the crown prince..., hehe!

Xing You knelt on the ground, his head bowed, trembling, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Yongzhi Tianzi glanced at his eagle dog, and was slightly satisfied. Huamo needs Liwei, so what about him? After a serious illness, has his imperial authority been weakened? In the court, the voice of Li Chu sounded. What does that mean? Think he's dying?

At this time, a little eunuch outside the study hurriedly came in, knelt on the ground, presented an urgent report in his hand, and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, Shandong is eight hundred miles away, and the Caogong along the canal is reversed!" ”

The imperial study was suddenly quiet for a while.

Yongzhi Tianzi felt irritable in his heart, he wanted to rise to peace in the four seas, and the country and the people would be safe. On the contrary, some people want to make trouble. "Summoning three scholars to meet you." sent Xing You away again.

How to deal with the rebellion, the dynasty has its own set of procedures. After seeing Hua Mo, Wei Hong, and Song Pu, the Son of Yongzhi threw the matter to Hua Mo. After the monarch and ministers finished their deliberations, it was almost noon.

Walking in the long corridor, the Son of Heaven instructed: "Xu Yan, you secretly send the green beauty here in the afternoon." ”
