Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 310 Conclusion
In the hall, Luo Tong was also choked and speechless.

As Wang Wen said, with this identification document, it would be sophistry to argue that the evidence presented by Zhu Yinzhen is not credible.

According to this logic, all the evidence is not enough to be believed, including the evidence presented by King Guangtong.

One of the most important principles in interrogating criminal cases is to trust the evidence in front of you.

No matter how sensational and counterintuitive the truth revealed by the evidence is, you must believe the evidence.

Because the so-called violation of common sense, most of the time, it is because the criminal case officer has not fully investigated the logic behind the case.

Such as the present case.

Logically speaking, it is doubtful that Zhu Yinyi was able to find the so-called unsuccessful candidate within half a month, and it happened that the failed candidate hid a piece of evidence.

However, if the evidence he presented can be recognized by the appraiser, it should be accepted.

The result of the appraisal by the scribes is that the handwriting of these two poems is very similar to that of King Zhennan's Memorial, and it can be basically determined that they were written by the same person.

However, Zhu Yinzhen could prove that the poem he brought was copied by someone else, and inferred from this, the credibility of the other poem also collapsed.

That is to say, the document issued by the scribe for authenticity has instead become ironclad evidence that the evidence is forged.

This is an inextricable knot.

At this point, it is meaningless to pursue that move.

Even if the evidence presented by Zhu Yinzhen was not written by that Juzi, it can at least prove that forged poems can fool the appraising scribes.

From this point of view, it can also be proved that the evidence of King Guangtong is not true!
What's more, although Luo Tong didn't know much about it, Marquis Ningyang had been in charge of the clan's mansion for many years, so he knew more or less what happened in the Min mansion back then.

During the Xuande period, the property of the Min Mansion was stolen many times, and there was a lot of trouble in the local area. The old Min King even asked the court to ask the local officials to cooperate in the investigation, but in the end it was nothing.

This incident corroborates with the current situation.

It is basically certain that, nine times out of ten, the Su family did have someone copy Zhu Huixun's handwriting for the sake of insurance. During the copying process, it is not difficult for someone to keep a copy of it privately.

Therefore, there is a high probability that Zhu Yinyu did not lie, and the evidence he presented is true. It is meaningless to send someone to investigate.

The key to this matter is not at all the authenticity of this counterfeit poem, but whether Zhu Huixun has written such a poem.

But with Su's actions, this poem that was supposed to be an ironclad proof has completely lost its effect!

As for the witnesses who participated in the banquet...

Guangtong Wang and others have conspired for many years, if they could find even one person, how could they settle for a waiter serving food as a witness.

The trend is over...

In Ningyanghou's gloomy expression, the emperor in charge of the presiding judge turned to the two Guangtong kings and said.

"What else do you two have to say?"

King Guangtong and King Yangzong obviously did not expect such a result.

This matter was originally a secret matter, and Su's self-consciously doing it back then, only kept two copies, and the rest of the waste products were all burned.

Back then, she gave one of them to King Min, and threatened Zhu Huixun with the other, and both were destroyed in the end.

Theoretically speaking, the one she entrusted to the old servant to be transferred to King Guangtong should be the only one, perhaps, the one that is also the real one.

Because of this, she never told Wang Guangtong about the copy.

Even, she didn't even mention the fact that she threatened King Zhennan with this.

This is the biggest reason for the resentment between Guangtong and Wang these years.

In Su's letter to them, she only said that she got this poem from Zhu Huixun back then, and then kept it privately, and never mentioned the other two copies she gave to King Min and threatened Zhu Huixun.

Therefore, Guangtong and Wang took it for granted that the Su family was forced to death because of this poem, so they have been wanting revenge for these years.

But now, the facts are in front of us.

They themselves couldn't tell whether it was true what Su said in the letter to them that King Zhennan had indeed written this poem, or whether what King Zhennan said was that this poem was originally forged by Zhu Huijuan was true. .

Hearing the question from the Son of Heaven, King Guangtong just said in a daze.

"It's impossible, I don't believe it, it can't be like this..."

Seeing this situation, King Zhennan sighed softly and said.

"Your Majesty, although this matter has caused such an uproar in the court, in the final analysis, it is Su's greed and forged evidence that caused this matter."

"Fourth and fifth brothers, although they are at fault, one is that they are deceived by others and do not know the truth of the matter, and the other is that they are out of filial piety and want to justify their mother's name."

"Although I have been framed, but fortunately the truth has come to light. Your Majesty, please think of the fourth brother. The fifth brother was also deceived by others. They still have filial piety. If you forgive me a little, I will be grateful for the grace of heaven."

King Min didn't speak, but King Zhou nodded and said.

"Your Majesty, although the two kings of Guangtong committed serious crimes, since the king of Zhennan is willing to forgive, their brotherhood is commendable, and the matter was all caused by the Su family. The two kings of Guangtong are also forgiven. Your Majesty, please consider the friendship between relatives and relatives, and forgive me a little."

Then, other kings also spoke out one after another, saying good things for the two kings of Guangtong.

Seeing this magical scene, the elders present were stunned.

Before the tea time, this group of clan still acted like Guangtong Wang and the two were clan scum, and they wanted to get rid of them quickly.

Why did they all start pleading for mercy in the blink of an eye?
Only a few important ministers vaguely realized what was going on, and secretly set their eyes on the expressionless King Min.

Ever since the clan members collectively petitioned to enter the palace, they were puzzled. When did this group of princes, who had hardly met each other, start to be so united.

It was only now that they realized that the power of Prince Min might be indispensable, and perhaps there were other people who should not be guessed by them.

That's right, the plaintiffs and defendants in this case are both the sons of the old King Min.

Whether you like it or not, it is your own blood and flesh after all.

They have all pushed themselves to a dead end, no matter who wins or loses, the other party will definitely be severely punished.

The palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh, which is embarrassing for the old Min King.

To be able to find another way in such a situation and come up with such a method.

Put all the blame on a deceased concubine, and give Guangtong Wang and his wife a new way of life.

Anyway, the dead can't speak, and now the king of Zhennan, who is the sufferer, is willing to express his forgiveness generously, and the clans have collectively asked for mercy. This old Min king really took great pains.

This case, no matter how big it involved, was essentially a religious affair.

Since it is a religious matter, it is impossible to judge it completely according to the law. It is necessary to take into account the so-called kinship, and more importantly, the opinions and attitudes of the clan.

Therefore, after several princes came forward to intercede one after another, the emperor finally spoke.

"The facts of this case are clear now, and there is no real evidence to prove that King Zhennan slandered Renmiao. King Guangtong and King Yangzong are all false accusations."

The emperor's golden words, this is the final word, and he has reached a conclusion for this case. As for the disposal, the emperor hesitated for a moment, glanced at the begging clan below, Fang said.

"As the eldest son of the Min Palace, King Zhennan has a distinguished status. King Guangtong and King Yangzong made a false accusation without authorization. Although the circumstances are justifiable, this trend will not last long. The king's title will be cut off and the high wall of Fengyang will be distributed. "

"However, Nian still has filial piety, and all the clans and the kings of Zhennan all advocate light sentences, so I will forgive a little bit, cut the nobility but not remove the title, keep Guangtong, Yangzong and the two countries, and the Ministry of Rites and the clan government will follow the ancestral law. System, from the two heirs, preside over the succession."

This result is also expected.

Cutting the nobility but not removing the title, that is to say, only King Guangtong and King Yangzong were imprisoned to the high wall of Fengyang, and their feudal kingdoms will still be inherited by their respective heirs, which is a good result.

King Min and King Zhennan all came forward to thank each other by coincidence.

Even the two kings of Guangtong realized that the situation was over, so they bowed down to Xie En.

Afterwards, King Guangtong and King Yangzong were taken down, and King Zhennan brought Zhu Yinyu back to the throne with the other clans.

This major case that shocked the government and the public has come to an end, but the series of impacts brought about by it have only just begun.

The next thing is a complete court game, the bosses watched coldly, watching the clans jumping around for so long, it is finally time for them to play...
