Chapter 871: The Devil's Traitor

readx; I haven't spoken out against it, but there are courtiers who take the lead in opposing Qian Qianyi's entry into the cabinet? Zhu Youzhen looked at him in surprise, but found that he was also an old acquaintance: Wen Tiren, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Wen Tiren, like Wang Yongguang, also hung up the false title of a secretary of the Ministry of Rites. However, his situation is much worse than Wang Yongguang: when the eunuch party was in power, because he deliberately avoided his position in the dispute between Gu Bingqian and Wei Guangwei, he investigated the case of Gao Yingxiang's escape in a confusing way, which Wei Zhongxian disliked and never been reused; When the Donglin Party regained power, he was once again excluded because he was not a Donglin Party.

In this ceremony, Qian Longxi and Qian Qianyi, who have just been reinstated from the Ministry of Rites, can enter the shortlist; And Wen Tiren, as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, can't even enter the shortlist, and his interpersonal relationships can be seen.

However, Wen Tiren has been very low-key some time ago, and he gives Zhu Youzhen a very tactful feeling, never coming out easily, how could he suddenly be difficult this time?

In the midst of the consternation of the ministers, Wen Tiren took out another letter and presented it to Zhu Youzhen. As soon as Zhu Youjian looked at this topic, he knew that the content must be murderous: straight hair is treacherous!

"Who is the traitor you are talking about?"

"Back to Your Majesty, it's Qian Qianyi!" Wen Tiren said angrily, "Originally, there was no name for the minister this time, and the minister should have avoided suspicion; However, Qian Qianyi's character is inferior, and he has a criminal record that has not yet been concluded, how can such a person enter the cabinet! The courtiers elected this person, which is really a party and a bully to the king! ”

This Wen Tiren can poke the hornet's nest, because although Qian Qianyi is indeed the Donglin Party, he is also a great Confucian in the world, and the ministers elected him to the cabinet, but it is not completely selfish. At this time, hearing Wen Tiren say this, it was not just aimed at Qian Qianyi, but overturned a boatload of people with a rod, so they all glared at him angrily.

Zhu Youzhen was worried that he did not refuse the opportunity for Qian Qianyi to enter the cabinet, of course he refused to let go of this opportunity, so he said expressionlessly: "Qing said that Qian Qianyi has a criminal record and has not yet been tried, what is going on?" From the real performance! ”

Wen Tiren had actually written very clearly in the song, and when he saw that the emperor gave him the opportunity to speak, he was even more excited, so he told the reason for the whole story.

It turned out that this Qian Qianyi was the chief examiner of the Zhejiang Township Examination in the second year of the Apocalypse. At that time, fraud was rampant in the examination room, the so-called "one foot high and one foot high", aren't you "sealed" and "transcribed", so that the examiner can't recognize whose paper it is? I have a more clever way to cheat: hide the code in the test questions!

At that time, there were two people who specialized in eating the bowl of rice for cheating in the examination room, one was named Xu Shimin and the other was Jin Baoyuan. Under the banner of Qian Qianyi, they secretly peddled "joints".

The so-called "joint" is a secret word used for cheating, usually a poem. When cheating, break the poem into single words, and hide each word in a specific place in each paragraph of the answer sheet, such as the first or last word. In this way, even after "transcription", the examiner can recognize it at a glance, so as to achieve the purpose of fraud.

The "joint" of this scene is the poem "Once stepping into the sky". At that time, many people paid money to buy "joints", including Qian Qianqiu, the first place in the township test.

But not all the people who bought "joints" were admitted, and some people were psychologically unbalanced, so they reported the money they spent on buying "joints" together. Later, when the trouble came to Beijing, the Criminal Department sent Xu and Jin, who sold "joints", to prison, and under torture and interrogation, Xu and Jin actually died in prison.

And Qian Qianyi, as the main examiner, had such a big fraud case, and Xu and Jin were under his banner, so he naturally couldn't escape the blame. Fortunately, there was no evidence for the death of the two, Qian Qianyi had a wide range of connections, and he had to use some silver, and finally the Criminal Department came to a big thing and turned it small, thinking that Qian Qianyi had nothing to do with the fraud case, but as the main exam, he also had a negligence, and only demoted Qian Qianyi and punished him.

As for Qian Qianqiu, he never appeared in the case at all, but only dismissed his lifter and sent him to Zunhua to fill the army according to the law. Just in time for that year, Concubine Hui of Xizong gave birth to a son, and for this reason, the world was amnesty, and Qian Qianqiu was even exempted from being in the army.

It's been a few years, and it's not a big deal, and the world has basically forgotten about it. Now Wen Tiren brought up the old matter again, and insisted that the criminal department was not clear about the case back then, Qian Qianqiu had not been brought to the case, Qian Qianyi was by no means innocent, and he could never use this despicable person as a minister.

Zhu Youzhen only knew that Qian Qianyi in history had no integrity, but he didn't expect him to have such a past, and he was even more determined not to use his mind. Seeing that Qian Qianyi was in a cold sweat listening to it in the class, he asked with a little mockery: "Qian Qing, Wen Tiren is involved in your affairs, do you have any arguments?" ”

Qian Qianyi was secretly complaining in his heart at this time. In fact, he was also wronged and not wronged in this case. said that he was wronged, Xu and Jin sold "joints", he really didn't know, and he didn't receive a penny of silver. With his status and wealth, he can't look down on such a little silver at all.

said that he was not wronged, because Qian Qianqiu visited him before the exam on the grounds that he and Qian Qianyi were both surnamed Qian. Qian Qianyi admired Qian Qianqiu very much, so he vaguely revealed the exam questions to him. Qian Qianqiu got the hint and was prepared, and he played well when he took the exam.

Unexpectedly, Qian Qianqiu wanted to have a "double insurance", and went to buy a "joint", and finally the East Window incident happened. Qian Qianyi was very afraid that because of this incident, Qian Qianqiu would bite out the matter of his own thorough matter, so he had to spend money to pawn up and down, so Qian Qianqiu was able to get out lightly.

Qian Qianyi originally thought that this matter had long passed, and he had always been in high spirits today, but he was suddenly attacked by Wen Tiren, and he was really a little caught off guard. Now when the emperor asked, he had to reply stubbornly: "The ministers are humble in character, their knowledge is sparse, and they are really unknown. But the matter of Qian Qianqiu is related to the name of the minister, and it cannot be ignored. Although the minister is blunt, he still knows how to eat Junlu and repay Jun's kindness, and he serves as the chief examiner in Zhejiang, although he does not dare to say that he knows people with his eyes, at least he is cautious and cautious, and there is no fraud. The traitor fraudulently used the name of the minister to commit fraud, the criminal department had already found out and closed the case, and the files were all there, and the minister didn't know why Lord Wen brought up the old matter again? ”

Wen Tiren did not wait for Zhu Youzhen's permission, and immediately cross-examined sharply: "Xu and Jin died in prison, Qian Qianqiu has not yet arrived, and the case is not over at all!" ”

Qian Qianyi usually debates with people endlessly, but today he was poked in the sore spot by Wen Tiren, some were knocked unconscious by the stick, and those debaters were gone, so he just blindly parried and said: "The minister doesn't dare to argue more, and there is a case file of the Criminal Department." ”

Zhu Youzhen called Qiao Yunsheng, the secretary of the Criminal Department, to come out of the class and said, "Has the Criminal Department closed the case?" ”

Qiao Yunsheng is also a member of the Donglin Party, and he has the heart to protect Qian Qianyi, but he doesn't dare to bully the king for such a big thing, so he has to say: "Not long after the minister took over as the secretary of the criminal department, this case happened in the second year of the Apocalypse, and the minister really doesn't know the details. However, after the minister arrived at the ministry, he checked whether there were any backlog of cases, but he did not find them. Extrapolating from this, the case should be closed. ”

Zhu Youzhen sneered after hearing this: "There are existing case files, let's take them and talk about them!" ”
