Chapter 475 Entering the Imperial Prison

"Your Majesty, no!"

"Your Highness has done nothing wrong, why should he be punished so harshly?"

“Whether their so-called evidence and witnesses are true or false is yet to be investigated.”

"I think it is inappropriate to punish His Highness based on just these two sentences. Please think again!"

Qi Tai immediately raised objections.

They absolutely cannot let Zhu Xuan be severely punished.

Huang Zicheng was the second to stand up and said solemnly: "His Royal Highness is the grandson of the emperor, how can you allow you to slander me like this? You said you have evidence, that's fine! Give all the evidence to Jin Yiwei for investigation. Do you dare to let Jin Yiwei investigate?"

The current Jin Yiwei are all Zhu Xuan's people.

Jiang Wei and the others have been sharpening their knives for a long time, preparing to take over the investigation of this case and dig deep into all the secrets behind the so-called witness evidence.

He didn't believe that the evidence could withstand his own digging.

Yesterday, I heard Zhu Yuanzhang say that he was going to hand it over to the three departments for trial. He was a little anxious. He originally asked the three departments to come up with a solution today, but it turned out to be like this. Take responsibility for Jin Yiwei.

Once Jin Yiwei takes over this case, Jiang Wei can investigate whatever he wants.

They all fell silent when they heard Huang Zicheng's suggestion to hand over the evidence and witnesses to the Jinyi Guards for investigation.

They were not very clean to begin with. The so-called evidence was given by Zhu Yunwen, but it is unclear whether it is reliable. If it is handed over to the Jinyi Guards for investigation, something big will happen.

"You don't even dare to hand it over to Jin Yiwei. Are you sure you really have evidence?"

Yang Shiqi sneered.

As people who were promoted by Zhu Xuan or decided to side with Zhu Xuan, they must speak up for Zhu Xuan.

Zhan Hui said: "Jin Yiwei and His Highness have interests in each other. In the Daming Bookstore, there is 10% of Jin Yiwei's income. I think Jin Yiwei will be partial in this matter."

Jiang Yu: "..."

He was thinking in his heart that Zhan Hui had better not fall into his hands.

Otherwise, he would let Zhan Hui know what cruelty is.

"A bunch of nonsense."

Li Jinglong retorted: "If you dare not let the Jinyi Guards investigate, then you have something up your sleeve. Your Majesty, I request that this case be placed under the jurisdiction of the Jinyi Guards."

"My minister agrees!"

Jie Jin and the others said in unison.

"Your Majesty, no!"

Xie Sheng immediately said: "Jin Yiwei will definitely help His Highness cover up the truth..."

The ministers of the two factions started quarreling directly in the court.

Instead, the Huaixi military generals who supported Zhu Yunxi's faction stood aside to watch the show and watch them fight with each other.

The best thing is for them to fight to the death and give up the opportunity to Zhu Yunxi.

Zhu Xuan looked down helplessly, not knowing how to deal with it for a moment.

The civil servant in front of him was obviously well prepared.

Just to do it for myself.

However, he was not surprised that Huang Zicheng and others could speak for him.

"enough!"

Zhu Yuanzhang's voice burst out with a hint of anger, echoing in the hall.

When everyone below heard this, they all fell silent. Everyone knew that His Majesty was very angry now and the consequences would be serious.

"My dear grandson, what do you think we should do?"

Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

But at this moment, he had the idea of ​​​​tempering Zhu Xuan.

After all, under his protection, the little sweet grandson has lived so smoothly over the years without experiencing any setbacks. Today is the best setback. All the properties owned by Zhu Xuan were impeached and impeached. Although these were minor matters and not major problems, they were still quite serious for the future crown prince.

"Grandpa Huang should deal with it according to the law."

Zhu Xuan said solemnly: "If the grandson is wrong, the one who deserves punishment must be punished, otherwise he will not be able to convince the public. Even if the emperor puts the grandson in jail now, the grandson will not care. He will not complain and is willing to cooperate. All investigations.”

These words were recognized by many civil servants below.

They nodded slightly, feeling that the little emperor's grandson was indeed very good. Naihe was Zhu Yunwen's competitor, but Naihe was not his legitimate son.

"That!"

Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a long time and said directly: "Jiang Wei, take our good grandson to the imperial prison first, and then take people to catch that bastard Zhu Song. We will give justice to the people of the world."

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

When the ministers heard this, they didn't care whether Zhu Yuanzhang was being held in protective custody or for other reasons.

If you can get Zhu Xuan into prison, even if you succeed, this is a good result.

"Your Majesty, no!"

Huang Zicheng said quickly: "Your Highness is not like this."

"Your Majesty, please think twice. Your Highness will not do this."

"Your Majesty, please think again!"

……

Qitai and the others knelt down one after another and begged for Zhu Xuan.

Seeing that there were still many people willing to support his good grandson, Zhu Yuanzhang was a little relieved that there would still be help in the future, but he quickly said with a cold face: "Jiang Wei, take him away!"

Jiang Wei has been with Zhu Yuanzhang for so long, and he knows very well what Zhu Yuanzhang thinks. This is protective detention, rather than a real attempt to convict and interrogate the crime. As long as he gets through this matter, there will be no problem. He said: "Your Highness, please come with me." Bar!"

Zhu Xuan left without hesitation.

Going to prison is not a terrible thing.

With Jiang Yu watching, no one in the prison dared to do anything to him.

"This matter will be investigated by the Criminal Department, interrogated by the Criminal Department, assisted by the Dali Temple, supervised by the Jinyi Guards and the Metropolitan Procuratorate."

"If we find out that any of you dares to commit fraud, think carefully about how many heads we will chop off!"

"Retreat."

Zhu Yuanzhang said loudly.

"Your Majesty, no!"

Qitai and the others were still pleading for Zhu Xuan, kneeling in the hall and shouting, but no one paid attention to them.

Zhu Yuanzhang left quickly.

Hou Tai, the Minister of Punishment, left in a hurry, preparing to investigate the matter and ask people to question the merchants and so on.

However, with Jin Yiwei supervising them, they did not dare to mess around.

The Jin Yiwei were the dogs around the emperor, and they had a lot of power. If Jiang Wei said that their punishment department was messing around, Hou Tai's head would be hanging on his belt.

Everyone in the main hall quickly dispersed.

Zhan Hui saw that the effect was good and could really imprison Zhu Xuan, and excitedly ran to Zhu Yunwen to report the matter.

As for other officials, they immediately gathered all kinds of evidence to the Criminal Department.

The fact that Zhu Xuan was captured and imprisoned in imperial prison quickly spread to all circles of officials and nobles.

Some officials felt that the environment in the court seemed to have changed.

However, some officials felt that these were just His Majesty's measures to protect Zhu Xuan and could not shake Zhu Xuan's status at all.

As for Li Jinglong and Qi Tai, they were filled with worries and didn't know what to do.

How should we save Zhu Xuan?
  Or can Zhu Xuan save himself?

There is also a very tragic Zhu Song. He didn’t know anything. He was suddenly dragged away from the palace by the royal guards. He was so frightened that he was covered in cold sweat. He thought that his father was going to kill him, but he thought that he had not made any mistakes. ?
