Penal Department. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Wei Changkong was imprisoned for corruption and fraud, and Wei Changfeng led the crowd to resist the imperial court reform and was also imprisoned.

Thousands of people involved have been imprisoned, leaving prisons overcrowded.

They didn't know what King Yan would do with them.

Not long ago, Fan Hengwen, the Chinese scholar, and Shi Xiaoyun, the head of the Yanwang Mansion, appeared in prison together.

Xiao Yun personally interrogated Wei Changkong and learned about his crimes when he served as the assassin of Liangzhou.

There are all human and material evidence, and the ironclad evidence is like a mountain, and Wei Changkong cannot be refuted.

Fan Hengwen also interrogated Wei Changfeng, and asked Wei Changfeng to browse and grasp the evidence of the crimes committed by the four surnames, telling him that King Yan was authorized to skip the criminal department to conduct a thorough investigation, and the four surnamed families should not be left to chance.

Fan Hengwen and Xiao Yun left the prison, Wei Changkong and Wei Changfeng were deeply aware of the seriousness of the problem.

Not to mention, what Wei Changkong committed as the assassin of Liangzhou, just the four surnamed families, over the years, with other families, secretly embezzled gold and silver from the treasury, which was enough for them to drink a pot.

The Merriam-Webster brothers, while in prison to discuss the corresponding strategy.

The prison door was open, and a team of right guards escorted Pei Yongke in a hurry.

At this moment, Pei Yongke is still wearing an official uniform, however, his clothes are wrinkled, his hair is unkempt, and his cheeks are full of fear.

Right Wuwei's face was condensed, and he took Pei Yongke into the prison, opened the cell opposite the Wei brothers, and threw Pei Yongke directly into it.

shouted: "Pei Yongke, be honest, you don't want to leave the prison until the prince personally interrogates you." ”

As soon as the words fell, a team of right guards quickly turned around and left.

In the cell, the Wei brothers, who were discussing a counterattack strategy, saw Pei Yongke go to prison, and their hearts became more and more panicked.

They were invincible in the imperial court, but Pei Yongke was the secretary of the Ministry of Industry and the core figure of the court.

Unexpectedly, Yang Yue said that he would catch it, and he was ruthless.

In this way, the situation will definitely expand, and soon, Liu Zuoyang, the head of the household department, and Xue Mingkun, the waiter of the Yellow Gate, may also be imprisoned.

Once King Yan had enough evidence, within a few days, they would definitely be beheaded and executed.

In a hurry, Wei Changfeng got up, came to the big guy, lined up on the stake in the cell, looked at Pei Yongke and asked urgently: "Pei Shangshu, what's the matter, is King Yan too much, even you were imprisoned." ”

The Webster brothers stayed in front of the stake in the cell, looking at Pei Yongke through the corridor of the cell, anxiously waiting for his reply.

Pei Yongke got up, straightened his official clothes, and walked to the place close to the aisle, with a bitter expression, and said in a lonely voice: "Wei Shilang, the emperor ordered King Yan to investigate this matter thoroughly, the Yuwen family and the He family are all out of the matter, and we estimate that this matter is in a catastrophe." ”

After saying that, Pei Yongke shook his head, looking loveless, leaning against the wall of the cell.

Hearing the sound, Wei Changkong, Wei Changfeng's expression changed dramatically in an instant, and he was weak.

Wei Changkong hurriedly grabbed Wei Changfeng's arm and exclaimed: "Big brother, how can this be, the Yuwen family, the He family, aren't they friendly with us, at this time, how can they abandon us?" ”

The four surname families, the five surnames and the seven wangs, and the four major military gates, dare to collect wealth in the imperial court, counties and states, all because of the same qi and branches, and they play a pivotal role in the imperial court.

No matter who investigates strictly, they must take the lead in weighing and weighing.

Now, the four surnamed families are suffering, and the seven families of the military gate are all watching the fire from the other side, isn't this pushing the four surnamed families into the fire pit?

Wei Changfeng looked melancholy, speechless, shifted his attention to the sad Pei Yongke, and asked urgently: "Pei Shangshu, is it true that when things are exhausted, there is no room for maneuver?" ”

Pei Yongke leaned his palm on the wall of the cell, turned to look at the Wei brothers, and muttered: "Before being arrested, the official heard in the palace that King Yan was about to bring down Liu Zuoyang, the head of the household department, but unfortunately there was no evidence. It just so happened that we were committing a crime, and King Yan planned to torture himself and others to get the evidence of Liu Zuoyang's embezzlement of official silver. ”

For a while, Wei Changfeng said anxiously: "Pei Shangshu, to put it this way, the disasters we suffered were all caused by Liu Zuoyang. ”

"Whether it is an unjustified disaster, it is difficult to say, if King Yan grasps the evidence of Liu Zuoyang's embezzlement of official silver in advance, once Liu Zuoyang involves all of us, then the evidence is ironclad, and you and I will be in a catastrophe." Pei Yongke followed Yang Yue's instructions and brought the topic to Liu Zuoyang.

"What, how is that?" Wei Changkong shouted in despair.

Wei Changfeng's expression was also full of worry, leaning against the wall of the cell, cold sweat rolling on his forehead, as if he was thinking.

Soon, Wei Changfeng's heart came up with the idea that the dead friends would not die and the poor would not die.

His heart is like a mirror, and it has not been a day or two since King Yan thoroughly investigated Liu Zuoyang's crimes.

A month ago, he basically had evidence of Liu Zuoyang's crime, but he was forbidden by the emperor.

This time, King Yan made a big move to investigate Liu Zuoyang thoroughly, and even arrested important ministers of the court, but the emperor ignored him.

It is estimated that the behavior is much more severe than it was a month ago.

Thinking of this, Wei Changfeng's expression was resolute, his eyes were gloomy, and he said: "King Yan has not yet grasped the evidence against Liu Zuoyang, we should take the initiative to explain Liu Zuoyang's embezzlement of official silver, and strive to get out." ”

"Big brother, you are confused, the four surnamed families are in the same spirit, one is prosperous, one is lost, you expose Liu Zuoyang for embezzling official silver, and Liu Zuoyang also exposes us, at that time, the four surnames killed each other, wouldn't it be cheap for nothing?" Wei Changkong learned of his eldest brother's thoughts and hurriedly expressed his worries.

At this time, Pei Yongke leaned against the wall of the cell and heard the conversation of the Wei brothers, Pei Yongke hurriedly got up and said: "Wei Shilang, for the safety of the four surnamed families, you must not care about the interests of the Wei family and expose Liu Shangshu, otherwise, the four surnamed families will all suffer." ”

"Pei Shangshu, don't be careful, I'm not in a hurry, just talk about it." Wei Changfeng noticed Pei Yongke's attitude and hurriedly explained.

Pei Yongke bowed his head, as if he was carrying a weight: "That's good, Wei Shilang must put the interests of the four surnames first." ”

For a moment, the cell became quiet, except for the footsteps of the yamen patrolling back and forth.

However, in the cell, Wei Changfeng and Wei Changkong were secretly communicating, using the firewood in the cell to draw on the ground.

In their eyes, compared with the interests of the family, the four-surname family is nothing, not to mention, this time in prison, they have a life and death crisis.

If you don't resolve it, you'll never get out of your cell.

When the light of day is seen again, it will be the day when the head falls.

About half an hour later, the prison door opened, and the light from outside entered the prison.

A pair of right guards hurried in and guarded both sides of the cell.

Yang Yue was in the Criminal Department, Shangshu Wang Mingfan, Zhongshu Lang Fan Hengwen, and Yan Wang Mansion Chief Shi Xiaoyun, and the stars seemed to walk in with the moon.

With the sound of footsteps, Wei Changfeng, Wei Changkong, and Pei Yongke's thoughts were all suspended.

King Yan is imprisoned, there must be nothing good.

Under the squint of the three people, Yang Yue walked unhurriedly.

Stopped in the middle of the aisle, glanced at the Wei brothers, turned around and walked to Pei Yongke's cell, Yang Yue sneered and asked: "Pei Shangshu, isn't it a taste in this cell, if you want to leave, please summon it truthfully, and Daoming Liu Zuoyang's criminal evidence, this king will release you immediately." ”
