Chapter two hundred and eighty first half-empty half-truths
I don’t know when it started, but being sceptered by the court has become a gorgeous performance. The best channel for becoming famous in one day. If a minister is sceptered by the court dozens of times, he will immediately become famous for his reputation as being polite and bold. As long as he survives, he can go home to celebrate his reputation in history and make a name for himself!
There are many people who have confidence in their physical fitness, deliberately criticize Dragon Scale, and go to Tianyan to cheat the court stick to gain reputation. From this point of view, it is indeed a very distorted world, but Lord Li said that he was definitely not deceived by the court stick this time, and he was really angry with the Queen Mother. But since he was about to be beaten to court stick, it is normal for human beings to pretend to be heroic with the opportunity.[]
Although Li Zuo had been taken to the steps outside the hall, the slogan he shouted seemed to echo in the hall, and the voices of those who were very good at talking and talking were generally very clear.
No matter how upright the ministers who can go to the palace to discuss matters, they will be infected by today's environment with a bit of "conspiracy for theory" thinking.
The Sixth Superintendent Case? The Empress Dowager and the Chief Minister are guilty? After the two words that Mr. Li shouted were connected together, it made people feel very meaningful. Even if the former Secretary of the Central Committee was very bold, he would not dare to talk nonsense about this matter. Could it be that the Empress Dowager and Mr. Xu suddenly had a sudden misconfrontation, including this factor?
Although Zhu Qing never mentioned that case, he kept paying attention to it silently. On the issue of major policies, this is a case with a vane significance. Whether it is silent or re-recommended old things, it probably has its profound political meaning.
The old assistant Zhang Ruoyu knew that the night was long and dreams were too long, and he coughed and wanted to report the matter again. But Empress Dowager Qian on the throne couldn't help but fall into deep thought, and did not respond to the eldest assistant.
In the heart of Empress Dowager Cisheng, the incident of the Sixth Superintendent of the Imperial College must have been created by some people who were thinking about the dragon. At that time, she knew that it was impossible to suppress this idea and downplay it best, so she only planned to punish those reckless and disrespectful students, and let the Imperial College take it back and punish it on its own. Unexpectedly, the six people died suddenly overnight, and the matter became even more bizarre.
Even so, she still chose to continue to deal with it coldly, and did not want to get entangled with this topic when it was hotly discussed. You should know that no matter what result was found, it would be a movement, which would probably only cause increasingly intense consequences. The hotter the topic of this involves power, the more uneasy she is.
As the Empress Dowager, naturally, I am not afraid to drag things over. Even if I am suspected, no one dares to interrogate her. It is best to drag her until it gradually fades out of other people's memories.
But this does not mean that Empress Dowager Qian doesn't want to figure out the inside story, or wants to truly settle the matter, so as not to inexplicably put on a dirty back. If you want to be "Yao and Shun", you cannot be regarded as a yin poisonous villain who secretly killed the student in the school.
A while ago, Shi Jijiu strongly recommended Li Zuo to investigate the case, but she agreed to it when she felt the time had come.
Queen Mother Qian still trusts Li Zuo’s ability to do things. The key is that she believes that Li Zuo is a clear-minded person. Li Zuo must know how to deal with the beginning and end of the process, and Li Zuo must also know how to grasp the truth.
Today, Li Zuo suddenly came over to court and discuss matters. Queen Mother Qian didn't think much about it at first, but now she realized that it had already achieved results in just a few days? She was just taking out the court stick and cheating her reputation!
The old master waited again, thinking about whether he would speak, but he saw Lord Xu suddenly said to the Empress Dowager: "What Li Zuo said is really shocking, and he is surprised and surprised inside and outside. It is time to summon him to ask for a brief look at him before he can discuss other things.
Otherwise, the court will act hastily, and if something goes wrong, it will only make a laughing stock!"
Everyone in the hall nodded and said yes. Lord Xu's words were deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and could only express his opinion if he could see the direction of the wind clearly.
However, Lord Li was dragged outside the hall and shouted slogans. Even if he tried his best, the Jinyiwei in the execution of the imperial guard turned a deaf ear and did not care what he was shouting, and he still started preparations in an orderly manner.
First, he fixed Lord Li to the floor, then lifted up his fat official robe, took off two layers of kuba outside, and finally swung his stick and beat him. The Empress Dowager's side, the middle-aged official Mai, counted on the side, and many guards outside the hall gathered to watch vigorously.
Many of these Shiwei soldiers have been on duty for many years. When they think about the court anecdotes carefully, it seems that since Jinghe Dynasty, there has been no impression that others have been beaten by court sticks. Lord Li is likely to be the first one to be honored.
Li Zuo lay on the ground and suddenly remembered some allusions of "fighting with heart" and "fighting with banquet" that he had seen in his previous life. He turned his head and looked at Mai's toes, wanting to know whether it was opened or closed.
Look left and right, it seems to be parallel. What does this mean?
Just as Lord Li was distracted and studied Mai's toes, the court stick fell heavily! I immediately felt that the back of the body suddenly became spicy, as if it was burned by fire, and then it was rolled up again.
o-one
The severe pain of o is straight into the heart.
Not very prepared for this, Lord Li couldn't help but scream: "Ah!!!!"
He originally wanted to continue shouting slogans while being beaten, but now he can't tell the difference between the feeling of a court stick and being beaten in a county yard? Lord Li was beaten when he was chased by a yamen runner. He originally thought that a court stick was similar to a board, and he didn't care much about it because he relied on his strong body. Now he realized that dozens of court sticks could really cost someone a life!
Thinking of this, Li Zuo's scalp was numb, and he was so big now.
It was immediately another moment, and Lord Li couldn't help but screaming with ghosts and wolves.
Just then, the savior appeared. He ran out of the Wuying Hall and shouted: The Empress Dowager has an order! Stop stop!"
He ran to Eunuch Mai again and bowed and said, "The Empress Dowager told Li Zuo to go to the palace."
Upon hearing this, the Jinyiwei of the Zhengzheng Zheng had to put aside his hand, gently stroked the iron-covered end of the court stick, sighed slightly, staring at Lord Li's supreme tun, and was still unsatisfied. When was the last time he held the court stick? It had been almost ten years, but unfortunately, the skill of hitting the court stick was abandoned for a long time. Li Jiu felt that the misfortune was so painful that the court stick was so painful: it was lucky that it was more than unfortunate, but it stopped abruptly after only two strokes. But only two strokes of the court stick, can it achieve the effect of becoming famous? It is a bit inaccurate.
But I heard Eunuch Mai tell Xing Jinyiwei, "Don't take the stick first, maybe Lord Li will be beaten in a while."
Under the strong request of Lord Li, the small inner supervisor was forced to support him who was not dressed, and staggered to the hall, looking seriously injured.
In front of the ministers, after Lord Li thanked the empress dowager for stopping punishment, he heard the queen mother say, "Can you gain something if you investigate the case? Let me tell you truthfully, if there is a lie and punish you for your crime!"
Li Zuo took out a note from his sleeve and replied: "It is now found that Zhang, a minor official in the Imperial College Hall, and Fang, a minor official in the Rope and Crime Hall, was connected with Fang, and poisoned by Fang, causing the sixth student to die suddenly at night."
When everyone heard this, they were a little disappointed. What is this? What can the shocking news that makes the Queen Mother and the Prime Minister feel guilty?
Li Zuo continued to report without any haste: "It is also found that the criminal Zhang and the prison official are the best at giving birth to Qian. They have a very good relationship. Both teachers and students of the Imperial College can testify. It is found that Qian was trying to escape from the prison while he was stunning the case. As for the others, there is no evidence so far, so I still need to continue to investigate and report it first."
The official surnamed Qian? The money of the Queen Mother Qian?
Some ministers who are familiar with nobles have already remembered that among the two elder brothers of Queen Mother Qian, the eldest brother Qian Tai attacked the old man's title as the Marquis of Xinning, but the second brother Qian An was stopped by the ministers and did not grant titles, so his son went to the prison for his grace. Could it be that the Qian Jiansheng in Li Zuo's mouth was this person?
Although Lord Li was very cunning and kept saying that there was no evidence that Qian Jiansheng was related to the murder case, the speaker was intentional and the listener was intentional. Most people in the palace had automatically figured out the plot and drew the line from Qian Jiansheng to Zhang and then from Zhang to Fang.
In their level of cognition, many things only need the "truth" and no evidence. To put it bluntly, the evidence is for low-level people to watch the fun.
What they thought was just as Li Zuo said when he decided the case, there were no supporters, two little little people with no connection
How dare the official commit such a big case? Is Qian Jiansheng the supporter? It seems that he doesn’t have enough weight, so what will happen next?
Empress Dowager Cisheng suddenly heard Qian Jiansheng and was shocked. She didn't expect that the case would be related to her, and she didn't expect that Li Zuo would use her nephew as the mastermind. Did she guess the wrong direction from the beginning? What was her brother doing?
How much inside story did Li Zuo find out? Is there any real evidence in his hand? Is it true that the result was not found or did he deliberately lead him and wait for the opportunity? Queen Mother Qian thought about it and couldn't see through Li Zuo's trump card.
In fact, Li Zuo only has these goods that have been said, and there is no other information to take out. It was a case half a year ago, so how could he find too many clues in a few days? He is now just an empty city plan.
Today, the situation has developed into such a chaotic situation, and Queen Mother Qian regrets it a little. Maybe she shouldn't be soft-hearted. After hearing the so-called imperial skills such as "the way to be a king is to be good at balancing", "you can't let the family dominate", "you must remove Jingla for the future emperor", and intend to promote the Wuying Palace Grand Secretary Peng Chunshi suppressed the momentum of Xu Daohong, Minister of Personnel and Zhao Liangli, the Zuodu Censor.
Otherwise, Li Jiu would definitely be on her side. Now she realized that this sword feast is sharp.
But Empress Dowager Cisheng was not afraid. What would happen to her mere student case? In other words, even if she issued an edict to kill the six student, who could do what would happen to her?
The prince violated the law and the common people's crimes. Although it was empty talk most of the time, it was possible under specific conditions. However, there were still two people in the Ming Dynasty who could absolutely transcend the law, never break the law, never accept any trial, and at most they would only be advised and advised, one was the emperor and the other was the empress dowager.
What Queen Mother Qian is concerned about is her reputation and her family’s situation a hundred years later.
Seeing that the empress dowager had been silent for a while, Lord Li said loudly, regardless of his injuries, "My dearest and no regrets, but the case of supervising students has not yet ended. I dared to request a five-day deadline to allow me to continue investigating the case. Wherever I go, I must come to light and capture the mastermind to thank the world!"
