After Xu Youzhen finished speaking, there was a sudden explosion in the lobby.
The officials who had a good relationship with Chen Guang immediately became disheartened and turned pale. If Chen Guang was labeled as a party member, then all of them would be at the end of their rope.
As the person involved, Chen Guang was also dazzled. He understood that death was very close to him.
"What, what... in Xiaguan's home, it's impossible, absolutely impossible. Every time after reading it, Thief Yang carefully put it away. Xiaguan was not allowed to touch them. How could they be possible? Show up at my home.”
"Censor of Xudu, you know that I am loyal to Your Majesty and to the country. If you know that someone wants to assassinate Your Majesty and intends to rebel, I will not let anyone hurt Your Majesty even if I risk my life. Our Ming Dynasty has been damaged."
At this time, Chen Guang fell into a state of madness.
"I also want to believe what you say, but the evidence is so solid, how can I believe it?" Xu Youzhen looked at Chen Guang and said coldly.
While talking, Xu Youzhen paid attention to Lu Yu and Zheng Yang. They must be happy.
"Censor of Xudu, I dare to ask, are these things authentic?"
"They are all authentic. They have been viewed by people from the Hanlin Academy. They cannot be fake. Do you have anything else to say?"
Chen Guang lowered his head after listening to Xu Youzhen's words, and kept recalling many details of Yang Dexing's relationship with him in his mind. What a shame, at that time, he clearly felt something was wrong, so why couldn't he control himself? .
When Chen Guang fell into madness and lost his soul, Han Yong arrived after returning from Wanzhuyuan.
He quickly entered the lobby, then walked straight to Xu Youzhen and whispered a few words to him.
When Lu Yu saw this move, he turned his head and took a look. Zheng Yang, the inspector, shook his head calmly.
After Xu Youzhen heard what Han Yong said, he breathed a sigh of relief. He first invited Han Yong to sit down, and then looked at Chen Guang.
"Chen Guang, please plead guilty."
"Xiaguan does not plead guilty, but Xiaguan's innocence can be recognized. This is someone who deliberately wronged Xiaguan. This is a huge injustice. Xu Du Yushi, Han Shangshu, you must clear the suspicion for Xiaguan. Those calligraphy and paintings The copybook must have been secretly sent into my house to put the blame on the official. The person behind it had very big intentions. It would be fine if the official was wronged, but if the person behind it was allowed to go unpunished, then the official would really die with his eyes open... "
As Chen Guang spoke, he thought about standing up, but the two strong men behind him pressed his shoulders tightly and controlled him firmly.
"Chen Guang, you are confused now. I won't ask you any more questions. I will go down and rest for a while. After I finish questioning all my colleagues, I will deal with you. Come and take them down." Xu Youzhen said coldly. .
After listening to Xu Youzhen's words, Chen Guang's last energy and energy were released in an instant, and his body became limp.
There is only one thought in my mind.
It's over.
It's all over.
I, Chen Guang, have finished my eighteenth life, and my entire Chen family has finished.
After receiving the order, the two Jinyi guards behind Chen Guang immediately helped Chen Guang up, one on the left and the other on the right, and then drove him out of the lobby.
In this way, under the witness of many officials, Chen Guang was taken away by the Jin Yiwei. Among these officials, some were secretly happy, and some were despairing. However, they still tried their best to maintain their dignity as officials of the Ming Dynasty. , Don’t be happy with things, don’t be sad with yourself, and try hard to keep calm on your face.
No matter how hard or tiring it is, just treat yourself like a fool. No matter how difficult or dangerous it is, treat yourself like a fool. Until the last moment, the knife hasn't hit your neck. Even if you think of yourself as a fool, you should keep the grace of a fool.
The atmosphere in the lobby also became tense as Chen Guang was taken out.
This was something Xu Youzhen could clearly detect.
He looked at Zheng Yang.
"My Lord Inspector, do you think Chen Guang is an accomplice of Thief Yang?"
After Zheng Yang heard this, he hurriedly replied: "The censor of Xudu, I have always thought that Mr. Chen was just intoxicated with calligraphy and painting, and acted erratically. Apart from that, he can be regarded as a qualified official. If it weren't for Xu The imperial censor is aware of everything, and now there is irrefutable evidence. I really can’t see that he is hiding evil intentions, colluding with the rebellious party, and intending to be detrimental to your majesty..."
After listening to Zheng Yang's words, Xu Youzhen nodded, and then continued to ask: "My lord, you are in charge of the punishment of a province and know the laws of the Ming Dynasty well. I would like to ask you how to determine the crime of rebellion... …”
Zheng Yang glanced at Lu Yu, and then said quickly: "He is the first of the ten evils in the Ming Law..."
"Anyone who conspires to rebel, that is, someone who is planning to endanger the country and commit great rebellion, or someone who is planning to destroy ancestral temples, mountain mausoleums, and palaces, but who are complicit in the conspiracy, will be put to death regardless of the leader or subordinate. ..."
"Grandfathers, fathers and sons, grandsons and brothers, and people living together with them, regardless of their surnames, and sons of uncles and brothers, regardless of their nationality, who are sixteen or above, regardless of whether they are seriously ill or not, will be killed..."
"For those under fifteen years old, their mothers, daughters, wives, sisters, and sons' wives and concubines are paid as slaves to the family of the meritorious official. Their property goes to the official. If the daughter's marriage has been decided, it belongs to her husband. If the children and grandchildren pass the house to others, and the betrothal of a wife is not completed, No one wants to sit down."
"Those who know the truth and hide it will be killed..."
"If anyone is able to capture someone, the people will appoint him as a civilian officer, and the army will grant him a military position, and the property of the prisoner will still be fully rewarded. If you know and report first, the officer will only give property to the person who captured him. If you don't surrender, you will be given a hundred sticks, Flow three thousand miles..."
Zheng Yang said eloquently and energetically.
But after he finished speaking, Xu Youzhen didn't respond for a long time.
He turned his head to look at Xu Youzhen, only to see Xu Youzhen staring at him closely.
Zheng Yang was suddenly shocked.
Why is this damn fat man looking at me with such pitiful and disgusting eyes?
"My Lord Governor, I heard that you are from the Lu family of Wu County. Your ancestor was Lu Xun, the governor of Soochow. However, although you come from a famous family, you suffered a period of hardship when you were young due to the decline of your family. However, you ended up in high school, shining brightly on your family, and becoming a well-known signature of the Lu family in Wu County."
Lu Yu was quite surprised when he heard Xu Youzhen's words, but he didn't think much about it.
"Censor of Xudu, we are currently convicting the criminal Chen Guang. The Inspector has also told you all about the Ming Law. What is your purpose of changing the subject now? Is it because you are afraid of your close relationship with Chen Guang? Are you afraid that you will be implicated? You don’t have to worry. You are the supervising minister of the Southern Inspection and a close minister of His Majesty. You are closer than the other father-in-laws in Qianqing Palace. This little thing will not affect you. "
Lu Yu's words were very provocative, but Xu Youzhen pretended not to hear them. Instead, he looked at Zheng Yang: "Master Inspector, you seem to be from Suzhou, a talented person from a poor family. Alas, it's a pity. You obviously know everything and you are clearly planning. It is a heinous crime and he knows the consequences. Why do you want to follow the governor and make such nonsense..."
