Records of the Lost Cases of Helaitang in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 217 The iron gathered in Kyushu cannot make the wrong person

Today's Holy Master Renxiao went to Renshou Palace at night and saw the Queen Mother crying in tears. He summoned the Queen Mother's attendants to inquire, and found out that the Queen Mother also heard about Feng Xianglan's chivalrous bones and soft intestines in the palace.

Someone then came up with the idea to take Fengxianglan out of the Wucheng Bingmasi Prison and imprison her in the Royal Nunnery Ciyun Nunnery based on the decree of the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother went to visit her as a concubine and was greatly impressed by Fengxianglan's charm. Impressed.

Feng Xianglan told the noble Empress Dowager how she managed to survive in the chaos of war, and how she was escorted thousands of miles away to the imperial capital as a prisoner of war. When it came to the emotional point, the Empress Dowager recalled how she, as a noble girl from the southwestern Yi, was degraded. As a prisoner of war, I couldn't help but shed tears when I remember the old story of being a prisoner of war and being escorted to Beijing to serve as a palace official in the Huanyi Bureau after suffering all kinds of hardships.

Feng Xianglan accused Sun Yang of luring the Tuda women to the banquet, thereby allowing the sergeant to rape the Tuda women, thus forcing Feng Si to run away anyway. Although it had been a long time, she was still so sad that she fainted.

When the Queen Mother heard this, she was furious. The empress, who was known for her chastity, quietness and gentleness, gnashed her teeth and said: "A proud and powerful general like Sun Yangxian cannot be made wrong by the iron gathered from all nine provinces."

Then he asked the Holy One to issue an order to hand over the case of Feng Xianglan's assassination to the Ministry of Punishment for trial.

Public sentiment changed accordingly. Fengxianglan's assassination of Sun Yang was a righteous act, and Sun Yangxian's death was unjust. Moreover, he had already had a bad reputation, so the imperial court allowed him to live in Nanjing for a crime. Lord Yuanfu, who recruited Sun Yangxian, did not know who he was and could not distinguish between right and wrong. He was afraid that It is difficult to take on a big responsibility.

In response to the loss of power, Yuan Fu and his family fell behind step by step and were restrained step by step. Several officials wrote to ask Yuan Fu to resign in order to preserve the integrity of the officials. They are all old foxes. Who would value reputation more than substance, Yuan Fu summoned He invited a few of his proud disciples to move around, but unexpectedly, the people from the Procuratorate refused to let go.

Until his uncle remembered the sentence mentioned in Wang Heng's letter to him, "Guests of Taxue Villa will disembark from Zhigu Village to Beijing." He informed Master Yuanfu of this information.

The Yuanfu family received this sentence from Tianzi No. 1 in early September, but the information that Luo Guanren, who was in charge of the matter, was killed by Shen Junzheng in Wujiang did not come out. They did not guess the origin of the news. .

After being reminded by his uncle, Yuan Fu and his family suddenly woke up from a dream and immediately smelled something unusual about Feng Xianglan's assassination case.

After Feng Xianglan assassinated her grandson, she should be arrested and brought to justice by the Shuntian Prefecture. The Guandi Temple to the west of the general's residence was very remote. Why did the official of the Wucheng Army and Horses Division take her away soon after the incident?

Feng Xianglan's French flintlock gun, according to her claim, was bought from missionaries in South Australia. The imperial court had a quota registration system for missionaries coming from the east. The Pauline priest she mentioned was not listed in the catalog.

Moreover, after investigation, it was found that the owner of Tuxue Villa, the opposition Wujiang Zhou Xiangguo, had made shockingly large moves in the Imperial Capital during this period. A total of two hundred thousand taels of silver had been transferred into several major bank accounts in the Imperial Capital, most of which were from various places in the south of the Yangtze River. It was raised from everywhere, and also imported from Shanxi, Liaodong, Wuchang and other places. It is not difficult to guess that this is the donation from all parties to face Zhou Xiangguo.

There were not a few people in the Six Departments of Science who received his financial bribes, and there was a gap in the resistance to Yuan Fu's line. A trend gradually spread between the government and the public. If the Prime Minister of Wujiang Zhou refused to come out, what would happen to the common people? The noble concubine of Chengqian Palace received 20,000 taels each, and the eunuchs responsible for the ceremony and the eunuch Bingbi each received their own share.

Xiong Ling, the newly appointed magistrate of Wujiang County, secretly reported to Zhou Xiangguo to supervise the construction of a building and ship at home, with a large tree embroidered with the four characters "Dongshan Zaizhao", Saijiang God, drink to the full moon, and go to Beijing just waiting for the imperial court to call him.

Master Yuanfu carefully arranged the response. Soon, the Holy Concubine saw that the concubine's embroidered shoes were exquisite. He looked at them and wrote in a small line: Your Majesty Zhou Yuxing respectfully enters.

The Holy Emperor was displeased, and because of this, Prime Minister Zhou's hopes of becoming Prime Minister again were dashed.

The two camps were on the offensive and defensive, and soon the Ministry of Punishment came to an end in the case of Feng Xianglan's assassination of his grandson. The Ministry of Punishment ruled that Feng Xianglan had avenged her father's filial piety, and had surrendered herself. Although the evidence of murder was conclusive, the Ministry of Punishment sentenced Feng Xianglan to an extrajudicial sentence. After seven years, the money can be paid back.

Feng Xianglan asked herself to become a monk at Baiyun Temple in the suburbs of Beijing to pray for the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother originally wanted to release her, but seeing how determined she was, she followed her wishes.

After Wang Heng read this, a dark and unclear emotion arose in his chest. He returned to his new house and showed Xiaocai the letter from his uncle.

After reading it, Xiaocai said to the point: "Sun Yang died first. Who will the imperial court send to Liaodong?"

Wang Hengdao: "Mr. Zhang read the Di newspaper and said that the people appointed by the imperial court are the Li family who have guarded Liaodong for generations."

Both of them had a bad feeling at the same time, and were worried about the situation in Liaodong. Wind and thunder surged in the distance, and the world was filled with chills and desolation.

I hope that when I achieve Bodhi in the next life, if there is a woman who is driven away by all kinds of evil in women and is extremely disgusted with her, she is willing to give up her female body and hear my name, everything will turn into a man, with the appearance of a husband, and even attain enlightenment. Supreme Bodhi.
