Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 1132
The court meeting on the first day of May began in an atmosphere of fear and awe.The guards around the Taiji Hall have been significantly strengthened, but the number of courtiers participating in the court meeting is less than half of the normal period.

In particular, Duke Liang, Shen Wei, and Zhou Dengdian exercised the honor of going to the palace even though they had already obtained it, but had never exercised it once.There is another relatively rare thing, that is, Huainan King Sima Yue, who seldom showed up at the court meeting, also appeared in this court meeting, and followed Liang Gong to the palace.

All these strange omens made people feel more deeply when they connected the riots in Taiwan and the city in the past two days.To be honest, people at that time had already imagined that after the return of Duke Liang and Shen Weizhou, there would be a storm in the court, but they still didn't expect it to be so violent.

This kind of momentum seems to want to completely smash the entire situation, leaving no room for it.Such a turbulent situation and violent means made everyone worry that if the situation got out of control, it would immediately corrupt and be irreversible, and this time the instigator was the Jiangbei forces that they had hoped for earlier.Once that happens, Jin Zuo may have no hope!
Therefore, during the Celestial Court Meeting, even many Shiliutai ministers who had a good relationship with the Shen family earlier planned to take the risk of raising some objections to Shen Weizhou's series of actions.

Because this has greatly exceeded the limit they can accept, they don't even object to the Shen family's dominance and power, but the problem is that it is obvious that Shen Weizhou has fallen into a crazy posture of abusing authority. , the current situation that can be maintained will completely collapse, and the disaster is not only the present, but even for a long time, it will be difficult for the north and south of the river to have a strong enough force.

The panic of the people at that time had reached a critical point. Shen Zhezi naturally knew this, so he no longer planned to continue to maintain this heavy and depressing atmosphere. He wanted to finalize the rebellious affairs today and then quickly launched a series Rebuild and repair.

After the pilgrimage ceremony was over, without waiting for the rest of the ministers to speak, Shen Zhezi had already left the table, went to the hall and bowed down: "A few days ago, the minister was ordered to try the rebellion and evil in Jinai at the beginning of the year, and he has been involved in the rebellion so far* *All have been sorted out and are in prison. The former Minister of Rebellion ordered Zhuge Hui, his assistants, and subordinates to hold the shackles and wait for the public interrogation. Various crimes have also been recorded in detail in the book, and the judgment of the judge is correct. , and present it to Your Highness for reading."

Hearing Shen Zhezi's words, there was an exclamation of surprise in the already empty Tai Chi Hall.It is well known that Duke Liang wants to eradicate the Ge family. After all, Yangzhou Governor's Mansion and Ting Wei have made frequent actions in the past half month. There is no way to hide the intention of such a big scene.

However, the vast majority of people find it very difficult. It is not that the Zhuge clan still possesses the power to rival the Shen clan, but that it is too difficult to convict the real Taifu minister of rebellion. With detailed criminal evidence, as long as the person involved refuses to admit to death, there are still doubts about the fact.

It is not uncommon for such things to force ministers to enter the court and kill ministers without authorization. Even if it is not the case in China, after the Southern Transition to Zhongxing, Wang Dun of the Langya Wang family entered the court and killed several righteous ministers such as Zhou Boren. Human beings, in fact, are all rapes and murders, and there is no crime.

It is precisely because of this that the talents of the time had a thorough insight into Wang Dun's true background. When he rebelled for the second time, a large number of Taiwanese ministers chose to stand on Suzu's side in order to maintain the continuation of Jin Zuo's legal system, and finally suppressed the rebellion.

Mr. Liang and Mr. Hao looked forward to returning to the capital, and filed the case vigorously for review, but in the middle of the process, they suddenly broke out and launched a violent attack, wantonly arresting the current family in Nakinai.In the eyes of the Taiwan ministers, this seems to be on the old road of Wang Dun. The rebellious censorship has encountered stubborn obstacles and cannot continue. Under shame and indignation, he used this fierce gesture to show his authority.

But now listening to his words, it seems that there has been a breakthrough in the case, which naturally makes people suspicious.So soon, a considerable part of the Taiwan officials turned their attention to Huainan King who was also in the hall. Zhuge Hui conspired against him, and Zhuge Hui conspired to replace Jin Zuo with his own family. This may be very small, so Huainan King must be involved This son-in-law.

But King Huainan just bowed his head and was speechless, making it hard for people to see the specific changes in his face and expression.

The emperor naturally knew the latest development of the matter long ago, seeing the stunned appearance of the officials in the palace at this time, it was inevitable that there would be a wicked pleasure in his heart.Even if he didn't talk about the pain of losing his mother, he himself was often the last one in the garden to get the news during several turmoil, and the moment he got the news was the moment when he was caught in the turbulence and couldn't extricate himself.

This time, it was finally his turn to surprise the courtiers, he suppressed his excitement, raised his hand from the small table beside him to pick up the Zhuge Hui confession form that was presented to the court last night, his tone was still unsettling Consciously put on a trembling voice: "Last night, Mrs. Ge's confession of guilt was placed in front of me. After I read it carefully, I was indignant but also sad. Ge's history can be described as an old honor of Zhongxing. He has gone through three dynasties and has many deeds to follow. Why? When it comes to me, I am so easy to be respectful and good, so I rebelled against evil? Could it be that I have lost my virtue and lost my people, so I can't..."

"The great sun is in the middle, and it does not shine in the shadow of the bottom of the urn. Zhilan grows side by side, and it is difficult to get rid of miscellaneous rot and stench. The rain falls, the wheat grows and the wheat dies, the eagles and dogs forge ahead, people like and foxes mourn. Self-examination. In this world, the kingly way is making great progress, within five steps, loyalty and righteousness coexist, the people of the north and the south live up to the people, and they respect the holy virtues. Your Majesty may lose the respect of a minister, but he is still in the welfare of the country, so there is no need to be sad!"

Shen Zhezi saluted again in the hall and responded loudly.

Although the emperor also knew that these were just polite words, his mood did calm down a lot because of this, and then he raised his hand to signal his servants to pass the copy of Zhuge Hui's confession of guilt all over the hall for the ministers to read.

After everyone took it, they were half suspicious and half panicked, and their moods became more complicated when they saw the whole thing from the beginning to the end.The tone of the crime book is full of helplessness and sadness, and they can even imagine Zhuge Hui's despair when he wrote the crime.

The crime of rebellion is different from others. Once admitted, not only the whole family will be executed, but the reputation of this family will also be completely destroyed.So putting aside the possibility of Shen's forgery, it is difficult for everyone to imagine how Zhuge Hui confessed his crimes in despair.And the Shen family is currently in the upper hand, so there is no need to leave someone to talk about in this kind of place, otherwise it would be even more unpopular than a forced execution.

Zhuge Hui's confession brought great shock to the officials, and made them forget to pursue the huge turmoil of the previous two days.However, Zhuge Hui's confession was not the whole story of rebellion, and Shen Zhezi also carefully explained the results of the interrogation for various incidents such as rural fights and military riots that resulted from this.

Following his statement, various criminal case files were carried to the hall one after another, weighing hundreds of catties.These materials were all completed in a surprise attack within these two days, which also shows how powerful Shen Zhezi's subordinates have.Compared with a strong military force, this ability is more meaningful in terms of governance and administration.

At this point, the entire rebellion event is completely completed, and the next step is various crimes and punishments.Of course, before that, there is still a review time.

Therefore, the court meeting on this day mainly determined one thing, that is, Zhongshu ordered He Chong to lead a review team to sort out all the files from the beginning, cooperate with the public trial of specific personnel, and wait until all items are verified. Then Ting Wei and Yu Shitai drafted the specific criminal responsibilities of the criminals involved, and then implemented them.

But at the end of the court meeting, Sima Yue, the king of Huainan, came to attend again, and asked the emperor to remember Zhuge Hui's old legacy of Zhongxing and the favor of his relatives, so that Zhuge Hui would be exempted from public trial, and only the governor of Taiwan Province entered the room for private interrogation. The deeds are true. After that, he was allowed to judge himself.

After pondering for a while, the emperor agreed to the request, and then directly announced in the hall that the marriage contract between the king of Huainan and his concubine Zhuge was dissolved, and the concubine of Huainan was removed from the ancestral register and sent out to live in a secluded room.

The entire retrial didn't last too long, after all, no one had the ambition to overturn the Zhuge family's case against Shen's pressure.

Moreover, the entire case was paved with the most powerful evidence, Zhuge Hui's self-report and the confessions of Langya Wang's family members. When it comes to the interrogation of each person involved, in fact, their confessions are not very important.Even if these people refuse to admit it, their attitudes are not enough to reverse the clear logic chain of the entire case.

As for the interrogation of Zhuge Hui, there was nothing to say. Even if they had insight, they didn't dare to ask any more questions. They just wanted to make sure that the confession was indeed written by Zhuge Hui himself.And Zhuge Hui didn't make it difficult for them, at least he didn't reverse his attitude or make any sophistry.

As a result, the entire review lasted for nearly ten days and finally came to an end.All kinds of files are sealed and stored in the treasury of the Ministry of Finance, and the relevant personnel are also detained and awaiting crime.

Next, in the procedure of judging the crime, the first thing is to finalize the charge of Zhuge Hui as the chief criminal, deprive him of all ranks, punish him with the head of an owl, and hang his head as a warning to the world.All the sons of his family, regardless of their descendants and concubines, died together, their wives and family were guilty of the same crime, and their grandchildren, concubines, and family members were all enslaved.Among the relatives, each is based on closeness and estrangement, and is divided into multiple crimes such as imprisonment and imprisonment.

One morning in midsummer, in a quiet and simple room in Taicheng, Zhuge Hui drank a glass of poisoned wine in one gulp. This was the last bit of warmth bestowed on him by the world.The dose of poisonous wine was enough, but there was not enough poisonous wine in the cup. When the poisonous wine entered his stomach, the properties of the medicine took effect immediately. Zhuge Hui's face quickly became distorted in pain, and he fell on the ground and twitched for a long time before he gradually returned to calm.

After confirming that Zhuge Hui was dead, the court officials who had been waiting outside the door moved his body to the rug, cut off his head with a knife in his hand, repaired it a little, and then rushed back to return to his order.
