Hearing Zhu Gaojie's words, the British Duke, who originally wanted to advise him to be more merciful, was stunned.
The main reason is that this statement does not sound wrong at all. Zhu Gaojie is now the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, so these people are treasonous rebels and heinous in the true sense.
Under this situation, Zhu Gaojie did not kill the nine tribes like them, which can be regarded as quite restrained and polite.
Seeing that the British Duke was speechless, Liu Guan, the censor on the other side, seemed to have found an opportunity and took the initiative to say:
"Your Majesty, the assassination attempt was clearly done by Hu Ming alone, so why would Mr. Wang and others be involved? We must know that the important officials in the court are all pillars of the Ming Dynasty. How could it be so unwise?"
"I think it was probably Jin Yiwei who used his words and deeds to extract a confession and coerced Mr. Wang and others."
"As the saying goes, it doesn't happen!"
As soon as these words came out, almost all the officials on the field immediately turned their attention to this person, with very surprised expressions in their eyes.
The British duke also looked at this man in surprise, and for a moment he didn't even know whether he was good or bad...
"Unfounded?"
In the silence, Zhu Gaojie sneered slightly, comparing himself to the cowardly Wanyan Gou, and regarding Wang Zhi as Yue Fei...
It can be said that this is the lowest status of Yue Wumu in history!
Yang Rong was furious, strode up to the many officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, pointed at the nose of the leader of the Zuodu Censor, Chen Xun, and cursed:
"Chen, take care of the people under you!"
"Do you know what the occasion is? What qualifications does he have to say this is unreasonable!"
"Does he also want to go to prison?"
Being pointed at the nose and scolded by the chief minister of the cabinet, Chen Xun, the head of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, was immediately unhappy. But the situation was stronger than others. He didn't know what was going on, but suddenly a stunned man came out, Suddenly, he put himself in a rather embarrassing position.
Can you, a little censor, say these three words "Mo Xu You"?
You don't want your life, I still want to be an official for a few more years!
Chen Xun immediately stared at Liu Guan, his eyes were as cold as if he could kill someone, and he fiercely squeezed out a sentence through his teeth:
"return to!"
As the superior of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, he has great control over the censors below him. No matter whether he is a minor censor, he is insane or has secretly taken advantage of someone, he is absolutely not allowed to let it go now. Quiet words!
Otherwise, Chen Xun can immediately let this person go back to the countryside to farm!
Zhu Gaojie, on the other hand, watched this scene with great interest. He could tell that this censor who suddenly appeared might not necessarily be some stupid young man. He probably had something to do with people like Wang Zhi, or perhaps He is taking advantage of someone's family, and he wants to use this matter to build his image of not fearing power...
"You can collect money and create a character at the same time. This business is really not a loss."
Zhu Gaojie complained secretly in his heart, but the expression on his face did not change at all. It seemed that he smiled and passed by, but in fact he had already winked at Shen Qingyu.
When the next court meeting is over, a royal guard will "invite" this censor to go back and investigate...
Regardless of whether you receive the benefits or not, first check your relationship with those treasonous thieves!
But at this moment, another official came out, holding a jade plaque, and asked loudly:
"Your Majesty, I just heard that the list mentioned by Commander Shen seems to include people from the Yansheng Duke clan?"
Yan Shenggong, the famous Confucius family in Qufu, was the leader of Wen Zong in the world.
Many officials in the palace were shocked and surprised after hearing these words.
It's so good, why is it related to Yan Shenggong's family again?
Some officials from the East Palace faction secretly wondered, might His Majesty be implicating himself a little too broadly? The Kong family is not a small family, let alone a local wealthy family that can be manipulated at will.
Throughout the dynasties, no matter who sat on the dragon chair, they were always polite to the Kong family and respected them as the superiors.
Even if the Mongols occupied the Central Plains and established a new dynasty, the same would be true.
Your Majesty, please don’t let hatred get carried away and start to act stupidly...
Zhu Gaojie was slightly startled. He didn't expect that the Kong family's reputation was so sharp that even a few of its pawns could be recognized by others.
"Yes, Jin Yiwei did catch a few rebels during the pursuit, under the banner of the Northern Sect of the Kong family."
Seeing Zhu Gaojie admitting the matter, the official suddenly felt secretly happy, but his face made a sad look:
"Your Majesty, how could this be? There must be injustice and misunderstanding involved!"
"How could Duke Yan Sheng's lineage be together with someone who conspires to rebel? Maybe it's the Jin Yiwei who arrest people randomly and do whatever they want!"
"Please make sure your Majesty is aware of everything and never traps the Kong family into being unkind and unjust!"
It has to be said that this person seized the moral high ground from the moment he came up and tried to fundamentally dismantle the evidence in Jin Yiwei's hands.
The Yanshenggong lineage is so noble, there is absolutely no chance that they will be involved in this matter, so the problem arises.
Why do you, Jin Yiwei, arrest members of the Kong family?
He must have been tortured to extract a confession and beaten into submission!
In this case, are there any doubts about the confessions of Wang Zhi and others?
You, the Jinyiwei, have beaten the people of Yanshenggong's lineage to death, is it the same for others?
Then you, Zhu Gaojie, are still embarrassed to arrest so many officials at once?
Are there any people among them who have been tortured to extract confessions and slandered?
As long as we grasp this point and continue to struggle, wouldn't it be easier to handle next time?
However, after Zhu Gaojie heard this person speak, he immediately realized the sinister intentions hidden in it, and sneered again in his heart.
Will the Kong family not break the law?
What fallacy is this!
Seeing that Shen Qingyu seemed to be about to argue, Zhu Gaojiao waved his hand at him, and then said in a deep voice:
"If it is according to what you said, this person of Yanshenggong's lineage has never committed any illegal crime?"
The official stood proudly on the spot and said very proudly:
"Of course!"
"How can the people of Duke Yan Sheng violate the laws?"
As soon as this statement came out, Yang Rong, Xia Yuanji and others frowned, but some officials nodded frequently, apparently recognizing this person's point of view.
After all, that is Duke Yan!
She is the sage queen that even the Meng Yuan people must respect!
Zhu Gaojie suddenly laughed out loud. He bent his fingers and tapped the armrest of the dragon chair. He stared coldly at the official below and said word by word:
"Absolutely ridiculous! Ridiculous!"
"In my opinion, who does the Kong family count?"
"What kind of saint, after being a gentleman, has been beheaded for five generations? The Kong family is so fat on the basis of the ancestral tablet, what bad thing can't they do?"
"I might as well tell you clearly that the reputation of the Kong family has long been ruined!"
"In my case, that brand from the Kong family is of no use at all!" (End of Chapter)
