Ming Dynasty, starting from the empty seal case

Chapter 164 Hu Weiyong’s shocking purpose!

"Grandpa Huang!"

The sudden scene made Zhu Xiongying's eyes widen.

When he heard what Su Xian said just now, he just felt confused. I had no choice but to spend most of my time thinking about how to strictly inspect the Gewuyuan and how to severely punish people like Chang Sen.

But now...

Before he could think about the outcome, he saw that Grandpa Huang had already made up his mind.

"Didn't you promise me that you wouldn't embarrass Su Xian?"

Zhu Xiongying looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, his face tense.

Everyone around looked at each other. The emperor's eldest grandson might be able to persuade on some matters, but on this matter...

really!

Having said this.

"Is the printing plate taken away by others, and Su Guiyuan just didn't know about it? Or are you the mastermind? Or is there someone else behind you?"

They could only look at the little figure walking slowly towards the outside of the palace...

Everyone around the main hall listened to the cry of the emperor's eldest grandson, but they became more and more sure of Zhu Yuanzhang's inner thoughts.

There are some who are lamentable, and there are also those who are happy.

"Gongs must be rewarded, and deeds must be punished! As the eldest grandson of the emperor, you must understand this truth. You must not rely too much on others in everything, but rely on yourself."

Shen Liben, the Minister of Punishment, also frowned slightly, but he could still control it.

"Grandpa Huang... wuwu, you are lying!"

“Listen more, see more, think more!”

"Now that the Holy One has not activated the pro-military Captain's Mansion to investigate the case, it proves that everything can be detoured. You might just take off your official uniform at most, but if you continue, when the Holy One asks about it, there will be no progress in the case. It’s time for you, the Su family, to return to the empty seal case.”

……

"Yes!"

Just seeing Zhao Tingwang coming, he said bluntly:
"Even if you don't tell, the evidence of the crime will be found out. If you tell me carefully, we will all be considered colleagues in the officialdom and will not deliberately expand your accusations."

I don’t know what the Holy Spirit is thinking, whether to judge or not to judge?
Su Guiyuan has been here for more than an hour, and as usual, he has already been waiting in large numbers.

Question after sentence appeared.

As she spoke, she quickly stood up.

But the pro-military captain's office didn't know what he was thinking. He was extremely strict with Su Guiyuan and only allowed them to interrogate him, but not to torture him.

"As you promised... my grandson doesn't like Grandpa Huang!"

At last……

But Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care what everyone thought. After all, it was because of his grandson's cry that made him a little annoyed, and he seemed to be responding to Zhu Xiongying's cry.

At this moment, beside the latter...

Zhu Xiongying howled immediately, but Zhu Yuanzhang ignored him. The cry became louder and louder. Zhu Biao hurriedly hugged him and walked towards the East Palace with Chang Jing.

And she originally planned to go up and ask for a position as long as her father agreed. But now this situation.

"Su Guiyuan, did you tell me or not, when did you take the printing plate out? Who did you bring it to? When did the counterfeit money appear, and how many of it did it appear?"

He just waved his hand and said, "It's all gone."

"Grandpa Huang, you are lying!"

"Let's just break up like this? What should I do with my affairs?" Princess Chongning looked at her sister-in-law anxiously, but now she could only see her back.

……

"And your accomplices, who are they in this court?"

Su Guiyuan had already been brought into the hall.

Elsewhere, Liu Sanwu, Li Xiyan and others from the main hall also sent Zhu Yuanzhang off respectfully, and then looked at Su Xian.

How can he be tried without any punishment, and his old spirit is here, without saying a word?
Zhao Ting looked to both sides depressedly. Sansi was not just Dali Temple.

The two Chang Sen brothers, Xu Yingxu, Fu Zhong, and several princes gathered around, with worried faces and anxious expressions, but there was nothing they could do.

The latter immediately understood what Zhu Yuanzhang meant, stood up quickly, sighed, hugged Zhu Xiongying and prepared to leave!

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at his grandson and said nothing. He just looked at Zhu Biao and Chang and waved his hands.

Such a long time passed, but Su Guiyuan remained silent.

This made Zhao Ting frown.

however.

Beside him were the men and horses from the pro-military Captain's Mansion, who were only responsible for guarding him, but did not care about the interrogation of him by the people around him.

Dali Temple Government Office.

"Oh, I'm going to find my sister-in-law."

Shen Liben was also very sincere.

However, Su Guiyuan remained silent.

at this time……

A figure hurried over and quickly said a few words in Zhao Ting's ear.

In an instant, the latter stood up suddenly, his eyes bursting with joy.

"Su Guiyuan, it seems that His Majesty's patience has come to an end. Are you still thinking about the past and holding on here by yourself? When Su Xian pleads for mercy in the main hall of the palace, will His Majesty change his mind?"

As soon as these words came out, Su Guiyuan raised his head.

When Zhao Ting saw this, he immediately laughed and said:

"Haha, it seems that we guessed it right, but I will tell you today, Su Guiyuan!"

He seemed to be thinking of some great event, and arched his hands in the direction of the palace.

"The Holy One is furious today and has expelled your son... from the main hall!"

"In the past, the Holy Spirit was able to let you go just because he listened to your nonsense..."

"It will never happen again this time!"

The voice just fell.

Su Guiyuan's body trembled, and the focus of his eyes seemed to become blurred in an instant.

His hands were trembling, and his expression finally showed a touch of emotion. "Xian'er...Xian'er was expelled from the main hall?"

Su Guiyuan seemed to be completely in disbelief. Although he had been prepared in his heart for a long time, it was certainly a lie to say that he did not have such expectations in his mind!

But now, the facts are before our eyes.

He began to feel panicked like never before.

"Now tell me, who are your accomplices?"

Su Guiyuan seemed unable to hear these words.

He began to think about everything and took out the printing plate himself, which was true. There is no way he could hide it.

No matter how capable Xian'er is, what can he do this time?
Now that he is expelled from the main hall, will he...will he be thrown into prison or even be punished in the future?

The more he thought about it, the more panicked he became. When those scenes appeared in his ears, he could no longer control it.

"I want to see the Holy One! I want to see the Holy One!"

"Su Guiyuan!" Seeing that he was in a state of confusion, Zhao Ting quickly asked again: "Then how did Jin Jinglun die? Did you see him and your crimes, so you used power for personal gain and harmed people's lives?"

"Last year you were still a little ninth-grade examiner. I didn't expect you to be so vicious now!"

"All the people you sent were caught by us, and you still haven't confessed?"

……

The trial scene in Dali Temple became heated.

And this moment.

If someone enters the back hall, they will find...

A middle-aged man with a thin figure, but just standing there, letting the officials in scarlet robes bow and respect him, closed his eyes and listened silently in his seat.

"Hu Xiang, it looks like Su Guiyuan is about to make a move!"

"Hmph!" Hu Weiyong snorted and immediately opened his eyes, "Why are he waiting if he doesn't recruit? The Holy Master has obviously given up on them, and Su Xian has been expelled from the main hall!"

"This actually makes the truth confirm His Majesty's thoughts."

While talking.

He suddenly looked at Li You, the green-robed official next to him.

"Who are the officials Su Guiyuan has good friends with on weekdays?"

Li You had done some investigation before, and now he said quickly: "It only took a year or two for Su Guiyuan to be promoted to the fifth rank. Most officials in the court knew that he had offended the prime minister, so they did not dare to interact with him."

"However, Lin Yide, the prefect of Yingtian Prefecture, had an encounter with him because of the search for counterfeit banknotes... and the two had a good relationship."

"Oh?" Hu Weiyong was a little surprised, and then smiled softly, "The prefect of the capital, Lin Yide, is quite cunning, and he can be considered impeccable in his daily affairs..."

As he spoke, he opened the booklet on the side.

Most of them were officials in Beijing. After searching for a while, Lin Yide, the prefect, was obviously at the forefront.

He circled it with a brush and made a cross directly.

Finally, he flipped through the list of officials and circled the name "Hu Yi" among them.

"Hu Yi has been in the Ministry of Industry for many years. Although he is the head of the sixth rank, he has also done a lot of practical things."

"Cha Lin Yide! Choose Hu Yi to be the prefect!"

Li You quickly responded: "Yes!"

On the side, the crimson-robed official who was also sitting upright smiled softly, "Mr. Hu, is this the only one involved?"

"Of course not!" Hu Weiyong thought for a while and then said: "Those promoted by Liu Bowen in the past, such as Song Quan, Yu Guangjie, the Salt Transport Envoy from Eastern Zhejiang, and those left by your Yushitai, let them all be eliminated! "

Next to him was Chen Ning, the imperial censor.

In the past, Liu Bowen recommended many ministers to the Yushitai, including many from the southeastern dynasty in the court. Now they still remember Liu Bowen's old feelings, so naturally he also has the Yushitai.

"We need to get rid of some annoying bugs, and we also need to get rid of some rebellious and unscrupulous ministers who hold military power and are preparing to secretly recruit troops with new money..."

Suddenly, Hu Weiyong continued.

Chen Ning broke into a cold sweat after hearing this.

Even if it was Li You, the smile that originally appeared on the corner of his mouth disappeared immediately.

"Hu Xiang means..." For some reason, his voice was trembling.

"If nothing happens to King Yan, he will conquer Beiping next year."

"But there is still one most annoying person in our Ming Dynasty who has not been eliminated. The Prime Minister is in charge of his own affairs, so of course he has to share the worries of the Holy One."

Hu Weiyong said.

Chen Ning and Li You on the side felt trembling to the point of fear!

Although he had known for a long time that Hu Xiang had not paid much attention to Su Guiyuan or even Su Xian in the main hall.

The reason why Su Guiyuan's matter was continued this time was partly because the Prime Minister gradually valued it, but the other reason was that he wanted to use it to start a murderous case!
But they never imagined that Hu Xiang’s goal was never the fifth or third grade...

But it is the Duke who is most respected by thousands of guardsmen in the entire dynasty - Xu Da!
Li You knew even more.

The Holy Emperor's trust in Duke Wei has exceeded to some extent that of his uncle, Duke Li Shanchang of South Korea!
Hu Xiang set his target here...

While he was hesitating, he saw Hu Weiyong murmuring:
"Su Guiyuan sent the counterfeit banknote printing plates out in April and May..."

"This Su Xian is close to the children of the Xu family in the main hall, and they have close contact with each other on a daily basis. If we don't keep it together, there may be some collusion."

While talking, Hu Weiyong looked at the two of them.

"You said..."

"Can this counterfeit banknote appear in Peking first?"

Chen Ning's heart trembled and she didn't dare to answer.

Li You knelt down with a bang and said, "Prime Minister, think again, he is the God of War of the Ming Dynasty..."

"What military god?" Hu Weiyong sneered: "I have only one military god in the Ming Dynasty, and that is the Holy One! A defeated general who has suffered a defeat has long been useless!"

"check!"

"The truth is that I have a premonition..."

"The case of Su Guiyuan must be shocking! I am afraid that someone is secretly using the counterfeit money to not only enrich himself for personal gain, but also to buy the iron tools, cast armor privately, and have an affair with the Yuan people!"

"You want to plot evil and disrupt our Ming Dynasty!"
