Wende Hall.
In a row of verandas in the backyard, He Jin was placed under house arrest.
The room was filled with the smell of alcohol, there were jars on the floor, some were broken, and the tables, chairs and benches had obviously been smashed.
He Jin was lying on the ground, with clear marks on his neck, and it was obvious that he had hanged himself.
On the side, three Zhonghuangmen were kneeling on the ground and shivering, with extremely frightened faces on their faces.
This was the most powerful general in the dynasty. Under their watch, he hanged himself silently!
Liu Bian's face was expressionless, but he was constantly worrying about it in his heart.
The situation finally eased, but He Jin died again.
If the news spreads outside, I am afraid that the relatives and friends will be in trouble, and the non-family relatives will also have to walk on thin ice and fear.
He couldn't help but remember that Mrs. He came here yesterday and there was a fierce quarrel.
'What's the connection? '
Liu Bian thought and took another deep breath. This was not the time to explore this, but to deal with the aftermath.
He weighed it over and over in his mind, glanced at Pan Yin, and said, "Who else knows?"
Seeing Liu Bian's indifferent expression, Pan Yin's heart suddenly twitched, and he said, "There are just these three people, there is no one else."
Liu Bian grunted and said: "Then these three people, all food and daily life will be as usual, no one can find out, otherwise, they will be killed!"
At least, before the coronation ceremony.
"Yes." Pan Yin responded with a cautious and uneasy look.
Liu defended his understanding of the clothes, watched the sky getting brighter, took a deep breath, calmed down, looked at He Jin's body, turned and left.
As soon as Liu Bian left, Pan Yin stared coldly at the three Huangmen who were still kneeling on the ground, and said angrily: "What a good thing you have done!"
One of the chamberlains raised his head, with fear on his face, and said: "Da Changqiu, please save me..."
The other two people also raised their heads and begged Pan Yin in unison to save their lives.
Pan Yin snorted coldly and said, "Keep your mouths shut!"
"Yes, yes! We will obey the orders of Great Changqiu!" The three of them kowtowed together.
Pan Yin ignored them, looked at He Jin's body on the ground, and said: "The weather is getting hot, and the body cannot be hidden in the house. The body will be taken away at night, and one of you will pretend. If there is anything wrong, you will go and order it." Waiting to die in prison!”
"Don't worry, Da Changqiu, there will be no mistakes!" The three people responded in succession.
After Pan Yin took care of these things, he hurried out of the corridor.
Liu Bian returned to Jingfu Hall and sat down in the study, holding a piece of silk in his hand and looking at it quietly.
This is a list of people who have resigned recently. There are many familiar names on it, such as Xun You and He Yong.
Liu Bian looked at these names and kept thinking in his heart.
…
Liu Mansion.
Liu Yu has been having a hard time recently. Because General He Jin "reported illness", too many people came to his door, and they all meant to seek asylum.
But Liu Yu felt that he could not protect himself, let alone others.
He put on his official uniform early in the morning, prepared to enter the palace, and headed to the Chancellor's Desk.
Yuan Wei was a better person than He Jin, and everything was discussed and discussed. The matter of the enthronement ceremony was greatly improved in a quiet moment.
What he wanted to discuss with Yuan Wei today was the entry of Jizhou Mu Huang Wan into the capital.
Liu Yu went out and just stepped on the carriage. Suddenly, a middle-aged man came out of nowhere and rushed forward. He whispered with a solemn face: "Lieutenant, something big has happened!"
When Liu Yu saw him, his expression changed, and he immediately pulled him aside and said solemnly: "You are not staying at Tingwei Mansion, why are you coming to see me suddenly!? Don't you know what time it is now?!"
The visitor is Zhong Yao, the left prisoner of Tingwei.
He was in his forties, but had white hair on his temples, slender features, and a stern face. He looked at Liu Yu, then glanced around, took out a document from his arms, handed it to Liu Yu, and said, "Captain, please take a look. Let’s talk about it later.”
Seeing how cautious he was, Liu Yu took the document and opened it. He glanced at it and closed it again, shouting: "Where did you come from!?"
This document contains content about He Jin taking bribes, selling his official position and winning titles, and even included the content of plotting to poison Empress Dowager Dong!
One by one, the structure is clear and the chain of evidence is tight. It is not simple at first glance!
Zhong Yao looked closer and said, "I received it last night. It was signed by Zhang Feng, Zhang Rang's adopted son. I have done some research and it is basically true!"
Zhang Rang’s adopted son!
This is the eunuch's revenge!
Liu Yu's heart was shaken, and his expression kept changing.
He Jin is different from the eunuchs!
The eunuchs, these civil servants, attack them wantonly and cause trouble at any time.
Although He Jin was a relative, he was the leader of the civil servants. They were originally afraid that He Jin would get into trouble and be implicated in countless cases. Now that this kind of evidence suddenly appeared, how could Liu Yu not panic?
Zhong Yao looked at Liu Yu's silence and said anxiously: "Lieutenant, if these are spread, I don't know how many people will be implicated, and the disaster of the party's imprisonment is not far away!"
Liu Yu stared at him, snorted angrily, and said, "How could I not know! But since that gift card is in your hand, will I only give you one?"
Zhong Yao looked around again and said: "The official's intention is to leave it to Yuan Taifu and let him make the decision."
Liu Yu immediately shook his head, then looked warning and said: "There are some things I can't tell you, but you have to remember that the recent events in the capital are all related to the Yuan family, so you should stay away."
Zhong Yao was startled and said, "Then, what should we do?"
The enthronement ceremony is approaching, and He Jin's "report of illness" has already made the ruling and opposition parties panic. If the evidence of He Jin's crimes is exposed, at this juncture, big things may happen!
Liu Yu did not hide his emotions in front of Zhong Yao, his eyes were full of anger and hatred, and said: "The person behind this wants to disrupt the imperial court, and I will not let him succeed! I have recommended you as a court captain, so don't stand out again. In times like this, it’s important to be cautious!”
Zhong Yao raised his hand and said, "I'll leave everything to the Lieutenant."
Liu Yu looked irritable, waved his hand, took the document and got into the carriage.
Zhong Yao watched the carriage go away, looked around, and left quickly.
Liu Yu sat in the carriage with this document in his arms, his expression solemn, and his heart felt like a big stone was pressing down, making it difficult to breathe.
He entered the palace and came to the Chancellor's desk. He saw that Yuan Wei was already processing official documents. He hesitated on his face. In the end, he did not come forward. He came to his seat and sat down, and began to review and approve the official documents.
Yuan Wei raised his eyelids and glanced at him, then continued busy with what he was doing.
Liu Yu was working, but he still had the document in his arms. Every item in it seemed to be imprinted in his mind and could not be erased no matter what.
After a while, he couldn't help it any longer, looked at Yuan Wei and said, "Master, do you want to go to the palace to see the Holy Master today?"
Yuan Wei silently finished reviewing the official documents in front of him, picked up the pen and wrote a few words, and said slowly: "Are you going to see the general?"
Liu Yu was a guest of the General's Mansion and had very close contacts with him. He was very active in annihilating the eunuchs.
Liu Yu didn't expect that Yuan Wei would mention He Jin. His expression stiffened and he said, "I heard that many people have resigned recently, and most of the staff in the General's Mansion have left."
Yuan Wei picked up another piece of silk, opened it casually, and said: "If you are not healthy, you will always be worried. It is a good thing that they are gone."
Liu Yu looked at Yuan Wei. He had a lot of things to say in his heart, but he was afraid that he couldn't say them out.
The eunuchs were exterminated, and He Jin "reported illness". More and more foreign relatives and members of the party resigned recently, leaving too many positions vacant. There were countless people competing for them. Liu Yu only got one court captain. , Jiuqing and below, 60% of the candidates are disciples and former officials of the Yuan family.
What Yuan Wei did was upright and without any cover-up. Although Liu Yu was speechless, he was always dissatisfied in his heart.
