Rule over Ming Dynasty

Chapter 253 Huai Bi's crime, the emperor called a traitor

Chapter 253 Huai Bi's crime, the emperor called a traitor
After Song Cheng saw Bai Zihua testify directly against Sun Duo, he straightened his face: "Sun Duo, what else do you have to say? On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, you led people to the northern suburbs to massacre the whole family of Qian's family. Is there such a thing?"

"Your Majesty has been wronged! On the night of the New Year's Eve, I have a reunion dinner at home!" Sun Duo didn't respond to Song Cheng, but turned to Zhu Youtang and called Qu Qu.

Zhu Youtang's face darkened immediately, and he coughed lightly.

Liu Jin understood, so she stood up and reprimanded severely: "Your Majesty came to Shuntian Mansion Yamen today to listen in! Deputy Sun Qianhu, please answer carefully and cooperate with Song Mansion Yin in the trial, otherwise you will be punished for serious disrespect!"

clever!

Seeing Zhu Youtang's reaction, Li Si, Minister of the Household Department, couldn't help secretly admiring it. This is simply a textbook-level response.

Changning Bo Zhou Yu also couldn't help but look at this nephew, he was really wrong at the beginning, in terms of political wisdom alone, he has already surpassed that nephew.

Sun Yi wanted to pull Zhu Youtang down to directly weaken Song Cheng's power and disrupt the interrogation process. As a result, Zhu Youtang hit him in the face. It can only be said that Lu Yi really underestimated the emperor's wisdom.

"My minister is guilty!" Sun Duo found out that his tricks didn't work at all, so he had to plead guilty in dismay.

Song Cheng knew that fortunately the emperor was sitting here, otherwise he would be supported by a few relatives, and the Deputy Qianhu of Jin Yiwei of Huichang Hou's Mansion would have ignored him at all.

The clouds outside are rolling and the clouds are relaxing, and the people in the hall stand in the courtyard and watch carefully.

Song Cheng patted the gavel to draw Sun Duo's gaze back, and then proceeded to interrogate with a sullen face: "Deputy Sun Qianhu, can you answer the questions from the government now?"

"According to our Huichanghou Mansion's rules over the years, we have to get together for a New Year's Eve dinner on New Year's Eve. I don't know the art of avatars in lowly positions!" Sun Duo didn't take a little Shuntian Mansion seriously in his eyes, and responded coldly, looking sullen.

The common people in the hall couldn't help but nod secretly when they heard this statement. Even ordinary people would have a reunion dinner at home on the night of New Year's Eve, let alone such noble children.

Judging from the current situation, maybe it was Bai Zihua who framed Sun Duo, and Sun Duo really stayed at home to have a reunion dinner on the night of New Year's Eve.

Song Cheng's eyes were threatening, and he immediately raised his face with a sullen face: "Vice-deputy Sun Qianhu, it has been confirmed by your people that you were not at Sun's reunion table on the night of New Year's Eve, so you must be talking nonsense here!"

Li Yu, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Li Si, Minister of the Ministry of Households and other officials looked at Sun Duo thoughtfully, but they knew that Sun Duo must have brought people to slaughter the Qian family, so they watched Sun Duo's performance with the mentality of watching a theater.

If in the past, when faced with the interrogation of a small Shuntian governor, the deputy Qianhu would still have some effect here, but the current situation is completely different.

The majestic emperor is listening here, and this approach will only greatly lose points.

"The humble job is due to a stomachache, so I left the stage early. My brother can testify to this!" Sun Duo seemed to have an excuse for this, and he explained it immediately.

Huichang Hou Sun Ming didn't seem to even think about it, so he directly testified: "Yes, I can testify!"

Song Cheng glanced lightly at Sun Ming, Marquis of Huichang, and then turned his gaze back on Sun Duo: "This government is not asking why you are not at the New Year's Eve dinner, but where you were when the crime happened? Who can testify for you? The governor of this government needs to check one by one!"

"I didn't feel well that night, so I went to bed early. Although no one can testify, this is the truth!" Sun Duo couldn't help but thumped in his heart, but he still said calmly.

Song Cheng found that this person was very cautious, but he had more things than he imagined, so he showed a wooden sign and asked, "Sun Yi, this is the wooden sign we found in the Qian Mansion in Shuntian Mansion, do you recognize it?"

"No... I don't recognize it!" Facing the wooden sign that suddenly appeared, Sun Duo immediately shook his head.

Huh?
Li Yu, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and others saw the wooden sign. Although it did have the word "Sun" on it, but now that Sun Ming refused to admit it, it is really impossible to conclude that this thing belongs to Sun Duo.

Song Cheng has been investigating the case these days, so he answered directly: "I don't know? This is an ancestral item of the Marquis of Huichang. You are lying with your eyes open. Your ancestor Anguo Gongsun Zhong occasionally got a piece of lightning strike wood. It is said that ghosts are deeply afraid of lightning strike wood, so it can be regarded as a magic weapon to ward off evil. At that time, An Guogong ordered a famous craftsman in the capital to make five pieces of lightning strike wood plaques and distributed them to his five sons. Because your fifth uncle Gongsun Chunzong passed away early, A wooden plaque with five-petal plum blossoms on its back fell into your main family line, and this generation passed into your hands, it is the one in my hands." After a pause, he looked at Sun Ming and said, "House of Huichang, but I don't know if what I just said is true, this wooden plaque belongs to your Huichang residence?"

"This item is indeed an ancestral item of my Huichanghou's mansion. It belongs to...my younger brother!" Sun Ming, the Hou of Huichang, knew that it was impossible to deny it, so he simply admitted it.

Song Cheng saw that it had been confirmed, so he asked with a straight face: "The Skynet is fully restored, and it is not missing. You accidentally left this wooden sign in Qian's house. Now that there are all witnesses and evidence, do you still want to continue to argue?"

"The Qian Mansion has been burned, don't try to blackmail me, how can there still be a wooden sign left!" Sun Duo did not expect such a big mistake, and still did not intend to admit it.

Song Cheng's brows were slightly frowned, and there was also a bit of anger: "Before the Qian's mansion caught fire, the Shuntian government office had already arrived at the Qian's mansion. This thing was found next to the corpse. The Shuntian mansion recommended officials to file this matter!"

Zhu Youtang sipped tea and watched all this leisurely, and realized that if he hadn't been sitting here, the deputy Qianhu might have been wrangling here again.

The matter is already clear at this point, and the massacre of Qian's family by Sun Duo is already full of human and physical evidence, but Sun Duo cannot deny it.

Sun Duo lowered his head silently, but he really didn't want to accept this result, and at the same time secretly regretted his carelessness.

Seeing that Sun Ming still refused to recruit, Song Cheng immediately slapped the gavel: "Deputy Sun Qianhu, it seems that you really don't cry when you see the coffin! Come on, big punishment..."

"I'm recruiting!" Sun Duo knew that he couldn't help sophistry, so he spit out two words immediately.

Li Yu, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, looked up thoughtfully at Huichang Hou Sunming, but heard an untimely cough.

Seeing that Sun Duo had let go, Song Cheng lightly raised his hand to stop the yamen servant from carrying out his sentence.

"On the night of New Year's Eve, I was indeed the one who took people to the northern suburbs to slaughter Qian's family!" Knowing that the matter could no longer be quibbled, Lu Duo directly confessed his crime.

The killing that night was indeed very grand and sour. In fact, this was not the first time he did such a thing, but this time it was a big fall.

"Sun Duo really did it!"

"I said earlier that he is definitely not a good person!"

"If money really touches people's hearts, money is still too rich!"

……

Seeing that Sun Duo had confessed, the people in the hall couldn't help expressing their emotions.

The case went around for a long time, and it turned out that it wasn't that Du Ming, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, paid people to destroy the family and seize the house, but that the Deputy of the Jin Yiwei in front of him massacred the whole family of Qian's family.

Li Yu, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Li Si, Minister of the Ministry of Households, and other officials were secretly happy that the suspicion of Du Ming, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, was completely cleared, and he finally realized why the emperor used this Shuntian governor so much.

It was obviously a complicated case, and there was even more framing and blame, but the young Shuntian governor sorted it out clearly and clearly.

Song Cheng saw that Sun Duo finally let go, so he continued to ask in a deep voice: "Why did you go to slaughter Qian Zhaiman's family before the eve of the New Year's Eve? As far as I know, you and Qian Fu have nothing to do with each other, and you have no personal grudges!"

Huh?
When the people in the hall heard this question, they all looked at Sun Duo curiously.

Even if someone kills someone, there will be a cause and effect. Now that Lu Yi skips the delicious New Year's Eve dinner, but takes people to the northern suburbs to slaughter Qian's family, there will naturally be a reason for it.

Hou Sunming of Huichang and Bo Zhou Yu of Changning exchanged glances silently, realizing that the problem was more serious than imagined, and Hou Sunming of Huichang coughed because his throat was itchy.

Li Yu, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, frowned slightly, and immediately locked his eyes on Sun Ming, the Marquis of Huichang who was facing him.

"The rebellion at the expense of a humble job is aimed at the wealth of the Qian family!" Sun Duo first glanced at his elder brother, and Dang even accepted the guilt calmly.

Zhu Youtang sipped tea leisurely, but the corners of his mouth were slightly bitter, but he knew that all the courtiers under him were as slippery as oil.

Song Cheng frowned slightly, and found that it was more difficult to get the truth out than he imagined, so he asked seriously, "Sun Duo, are you planning the money bank?"

Huh?
The people in the hall already knew the fact that the Qian family's coffers were full of spider webs, and now they heard that Song Cheng was obviously trying to make a fool of himself, so they couldn't help cheering up.

"Marquis of Huichang, your cough should be cured!" Seeing that Sun Ming was about to cough again, Li Yu, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, stood up and begged for orders: "Your Majesty, Marquis of Huichang is coughing in the courtroom today. I know a good doctor in the capital, so I can take him there for treatment!"

Sun Ming glared at Li Yu, and also explained to Zhu Youtang: "Your Majesty, Xiaohou is not sick, but just had an itchy throat, and he is fine now!"

"If you cough again, you will be expelled from the court, and you will be returned!" Zhu Youtang's face was slightly cold, and he reprimanded him with a stern face.

Li Yu, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and Sun Ming, Marquis of Huichang, responded, and Sun Ming gave Li Yu a dark look, knowing that he could no longer give any reminders.

"The treasury of the Qian Mansion is full of worms, so there might be no money! Others may not know, but since I work in the north of the city, I naturally know that Qian Fu has been quietly buying land in the suburbs these years. Qian Fu can be said to be the person who holds the most land in the suburbs. The first thing I think of is the land deed in Qian Fu's hand when I know that the imperial court wants to build the outer city of Beijing. Therefore, when Qian Fu's family is reunited in the evening of the New Year's Eve, I personally bring people to kill Qian Fu and win the land deed!" Sun Duo didn't agree, but said directly. tell the truth.

That's it!

When Sun Duo confided the truth, Li Yu and other officials could not help but silently nodded.

Qian Fu is undoubtedly a very shrewd speculator, but he voluntarily gave up houses and shops in the city, and instead secretly bought land in the outskirts of the city and waited for it to appreciate in value.

If there hadn't been the disturbance caused by Wan'an at the court meeting on New Year's Day, the imperial court would probably have built the outer city of Beijing, and the land in the suburbs of the city would have skyrocketed by more than ten times.

It's just that "every man is innocent, but he is guilty if he is pregnant", so there is "all things are inferior, only reading is high".

It is true that Qian Fu waited for the imperial court to build the outer city of Beicheng, but it was also time to die.A businessman was doomed not to possess so much wealth, so he became Sun Duo's prey, and his family was wiped out.

The gloomy sky for most of the day ushered in a ray of sunshine, and the sunlight fell on the courtyard in front of the court, as if bringing a little warmth to this cold first month.

it's over!
The people bathed in the sun saw the whole process of Sun Duo confessing to committing the crime, but they knew that the governor would judge the court next, and then push Sun Duo to the guillotine to draw a successful conclusion.

Facing Sun Duo's confession, Song Cheng's eyes were sharp and he said: "You are lying!"

Huh?
Huichang Hou Sun Ming and others heard Song Cheng's doubts, and immediately looked at Song Cheng in confusion, but they didn't expect that Song Cheng would continue to chase and fight.

Zhu Youtang was not surprised at all, after all, he knew that the case was not as simple as it is now.

"Xiaozhi didn't lie, it's the truth!" Sun Duo said calmly without even blinking his eyes.

Song Cheng met Sun Duo's gaze, and asked seriously: "The governor of this mansion asks you, have you found all the land deeds in Qian's mansion?"

Hou Sunming of Huichang just thought of coughing, only to find that Li Yu, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, was staring at him eagerly, so he had no choice but to resolve this cough that was ready to go.

"Search... found some!" Sun Duo hesitated for a moment, then immediately responded.

Song Cheng found that this person was more difficult to deal with than he imagined, so he asked again: "Since Qian's mansion has been looted, why did you hire Bei Gang to go to Dongsheng Inn to hunt down Miss Qian for you!"

"Because there are not many land deeds in the Qian Mansion, I suspect that the land deeds belong to Ms. Qian!" Sun Duo's mind was running fast, and he immediately gave a reasonable explanation.

Song Cheng seemed to have seen through everything, but shook his head gently: "All the land deeds have actually fallen into your hands, or more precisely, they have fallen into your hands. Qian Fu has already fallen into the trap you set up for him."

"What do you mean by that?" Sun Duo frowned slightly, faintly feeling uneasy.

Huh?
Upon hearing these words, Li Yu and other officials, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, did not understand why Qian Fu fell into the trap, and looked at Song Cheng in confusion.

The sunlight just now was blocked by dark clouds, and the entire courtyard lost its color again.

It was at this moment that Zhao Dayan, the head catcher, came in from the outside.

This middle-aged man with big eyes came striding forward, with a clear hint of joy between his brows, he first saluted Zhu Youtang respectfully, and then went straight to Song Cheng.

Song Cheng's gaze stayed on Zhao Dayan all the time. When he saw Zhao Dayan took out a thick stack of land deeds from his arms, his face remained unchanged, but his brain began to work rapidly.

After looking at the large stack of land deeds, Song Cheng transferred the land deeds to Zhu Youtang.

Zhu Youtang took the things from Liu Jin, with a very complicated expression for a moment, then he took out one from the land deed and handed it to Liu Jin, saying: "Give me a good look at it, my lords, it really touches people's hearts, let's all take a look at what my good servants have done!"

When he said the last word, he bit extremely hard.
