Ming Dynasty: At the beginning, the house was ransacked and the ancestral temple was burned down.

Chapter 116 Suddenly went crazy! A fight breaks out in the lobby of the Criminal Department!
Zhang Chonghui's words directly silenced the entire punishment department lobby...

This group of officialdom veterans had never seen anything in the world, but it was indeed the first time they met someone like Zhang Chonghui who took the initiative to 'admit' that he was sick.

The key is this disease or... mental illness?

What is mental illness?
Everyone was dry and silent, but Zhang Chonghui continued and explained:
"My lords, I believe you all still remember the house raid seven years ago. During that house raid, I suffered from a high fever due to hunger, cold and many other factors, and almost died.

Fortunately, my ancestor...the spirit of my ancestor in heaven protected me and saved my life.

Unfortunately, although my life was saved, since then, I have suffered from a disease that occasionally makes me unable to control my behavior, which is what I just mentioned as mental illness.

So, I didn't mean to hurt Eunuch Zhang and Uncle Zheng. I was just sick at the time and couldn't control my behavior. "

This time, the atmosphere became even more silent...

Wang Xijue's brows were even furrowed into a 'Chuan' shape. For a moment, he didn't even know what to say...

"Zhang Chonghui, do you know what you are talking about?"

Our Zhang family has fallen to this point. Even if you want to take revenge, you should have had enough revenge, right?
My grandfather was, after all, a teacher of the Holy Emperor. He devoted himself to the Ming Dynasty for decades, and even before his death he was still worried about the political affairs of the country!

However, after a moment, Shen Li realized something was wrong. He stared at Guo Zhengyu and asked:
"Meiming, you are also from the Hanlin Academy. You are also one of the chief judges of this trial. Why are you still standing here? You should go up and participate in the trial, right?"

Apart from these three people, Shen Li was the only one left who looked not quite right.

Everyone realized that Zhang Chonghui was most likely pretending to be sick! Can……

After all, these ministers have already scolded this uncle with a "bad reputation" in their memorials, scolding him worse than shit, and now they really have not scolded him in person again. That one sentence is necessary.

These four people are Shen Shixing and Luo Sigong, who are also on trial. As well as Yu Shenxing who was under observation, and... Shen Li.

People can not escape from doing wrong! My grandfather made a mistake, and our Zhang family was also punished!
But why are you still refusing to let him go? Why are you still unwilling to let go of our Zhang family?
You even came up with this bullshit demon book case! They also forcibly labeled me as the culprit!

My grandfather is dead! Our Zhang family has also been raided! Our whole family has now become a criminal that everyone hates!

"How can this be done!" Shen Li's eyes were hinting at something, and he said meaningfully: "Mei Ming, you are from the Hanlin Academy. The imperial decree clearly stipulates that you must be tried by the Hanlin Academy!"

Guo Zhengyu frowned: "Zhonghua, haven't I told you a long time ago that I don't want to get involved in this matter? Let him, Chen Jianwu, handle this ridiculous case on his own!"

Shen Yiguan's questioning made most people present believe that Zhang Chonghui was trying to "pretend to be sick" to avoid punishment, but four people looked a bit uncomfortable.

Guo Zhengyu patted his sleeves and walked up to the hall with a graceful square step. He was ready to start "showing off"!

The person who spoke was not Wang Xijue, but another 'chief judge', Shen Yiguan, who had just 'joined the department'.

My 'mental illness' was about to be cured! Now you are forcing me to relapse again! Now not only did he accidentally hurt Eunuch Zhang Cheng, but he also hurt his uncle!

Guo Zhengyu seemed to understand something from Shen Li's eyes, but he didn't understand it completely. He asked calmly: "How should I interrogate him?"

As for Guo Zhengyu's own thoughts, only Hanlin, who has a strong temper and is extremely arrogant, knows!

My father, the eldest son of the Zhang family, was forced to hang himself by you people!

You know, if Zhang Juzheng really came to life! Not to mention His Majesty the Emperor! Just the ministers of this dynasty! Everyone will be eager to kill him!

Unconsciously, Shen Li's eyes slowly drifted to the position of chief judge, Shen Yiguan, who had been promoted successively in a short period of time.

Shen Yiguan's words, while stabbing Zhang Chonghui in the back, also brought back many people's dazed mood.

Shen Yiguan was also pricked by Zhang Chonghui's sudden "weird" look. He felt slightly guilty. Before he had time to react, he saw Zhang Chongguang take a deep breath in an "exaggerated" way!
Immediately afterwards, Zhang Chonghui suddenly became extremely excited, as if he had been stimulated by something!

In this way, Guo Zhengyu also understood what the other party meant. Shen Li is asking him to judge according to his own ideas!

Another meaning of this question is: Who should I turn to?
"Of course it's 'how' to review! 'Just how' to review!" Shen Li replied word for word.

Especially Shen Shixing and others who 'know the truth', they all wondered where Zhang Chonghui had the face to say these words. At the same time, they thought even more strangely:
"Is it possible that the older you get, the thicker your skin becomes?"

So what do you want? Our Zhang family is already like this, why are you still unwilling to give up?
Do you want us to kill the entire Zhang family? All dead! Only then are you willing to do so! Only then are you willing to stop! ? "

Shen Yiguan had a look on his face and assumed the role of the chief judge, pointing directly at Zhang Chonghui and asking:
"Zhang Chonghui, you don't think that you can escape the royal law and escape punishment by relying on 'hysteria'? You have to know! What you have committed is a mortal sin! No disease can save you !”

Shen Shixing and Yu Shenxing were thinking the same thing, and Zhang Chonghui's words just now echoed in their minds: "Thanks to the blessing of my ancestors' spirits in heaven, my life was saved."

But in the 'Great Ming Law', there doesn't seem to be any law that explicitly stipulates that one can avoid culpability if one is mentally 'ill'?

Zhang Chonghui, who discovered this scene, first turned around and glanced at Shen Li calmly. Then he turned back, looked directly at the chief judge's position, and stabbed his own Shen Yiguan in the back.

At the same time, Zhang Chonghui, who was frantically questioned by everyone for "faking illness" and threatened with "you are dead", caught a glimpse of Guo Zhengyu's "joining" from the corner of his eye.

Zhang Chonghui's "crazy" remarks directly confused everyone present...

Neither Shen Shixing nor Yu Shenxing understood, let alone what Zhang Chonghui wanted to do. This is not how you seek death!
At the same time, Luo Sigong was also wondering, what did Zhang Chonghui mean? Is this person really not afraid of death in order to attract the emperor's attention because of his unknown evil intentions?

"Zhong Hua, what's wrong with you?" Guo Zhengyu noticed this and asked Shen Li with concern.

For a moment, everyone just felt that it was a "mess". Only the uncle Zheng Guotai, who was still lying on the wheelchair and could not speak clearly, became angry. He immediately said angrily:

Neither of them understood why Zhang Chonghui would say such 'untrue things' in front of so many people! Is it possible that he wants everyone to know that he is 'Zhang Juzheng seizing the body' before he is willing to accept it?

Zheng Guotai's voice attracted a lot of strange looks from people, but everyone just looked at him with strange eyes and didn't say anything.

The young man who was originally being questioned harshly by a room full of interrogating officials turned around and started questioning the room full of civil servants loudly!
"What do you want from me? What do you want from our Zhang family? Don't you think the matter is not big enough?!

And I, the only eldest grandson of a big family, was also forced into a mental illness by you when the house was ransacked, and now I can only live in the house as a bride-in-law!

"Zhang Chonghui, so what if you are really mentally ill! You are dead anyway!"

At this moment, Shen Li's mind was filled with the "strange" words Zhang Chonghui said to him when he came to him to "borrow money".

"It's nothing." Even though Shen Lidang shook his head, he couldn't get rid of the 'ridiculous idea' in his mind.

At the same time, Guo Zhengyu, who was about to 'join the battlefield', was stunned for a while, but he quickly came up with an idea!

"Zhang Chonghui, what on earth are you talking about?" Guo Zhengyu asked directly: "The meaning of what you said just now is that the demon book case was deliberately provoked by your grandfather's former enemy?"

"What? Do you dare to do it or admit it?" Zhang Chonghui quickly accepted the other party's question and asked with a sneer:
"Don't you just want to put all the blame for this 'demon book case' on me alone, so that you can drag the whole Zhang family into trouble?
I'm surprised. Even if you are eager to put a blame on me and want our Zhang family to be doomed, you still have to find reasonable evidence, right? "

"Isn't there already evidence for this?" Guo Zhengyu said and quickly walked to Shen Yiguan's side, grabbed the file in Shen Yiguan's hand, and flipped through it without looking carefully. That content.

"Ha." Zhang Chonghui laughed and asked cooperatively: "Then do you think these evidences are reasonable?"

Guo Zhengyu seemed to be 'stuck' by the question, he just lowered his head and pondered, and said no more words.

"You want to convict me after finding such nonsense evidence?" Zhang Chonghui said clearly as if he was pursuing victory:

"You think the emperor doesn't know? You are treating the emperor as a fool! You even want to use the emperor's hand to take revenge on our Zhang family!
You are trying to get rid of the humiliation on the emperor's back and refuse to let go of the infamy of your mentor! You even want all the scholars in the world to think that the Emperor is a ruthless and unjust father! You are a bunch of villains who have no king and no father. In order to achieve your own ulterior and insidious goals, you actually want to put your emperor, king and father in an unkind and unjust position!
You are trying to make the emperor suffer criticism from future generations! It’s even more important to let the emperor! All the people of future generations who will be killed thousands of years later! Rebuke the ruthless and foolish king! The stink will last forever! "

As soon as the words fell, the scene suddenly became uncontrollable!

Such a big hat was not only placed on a few people, but also on all the officials present!
No one’s butt is clean! No one can be spared!
The old faces of the two 'chief judges', Wang Xijue and Shen Yiguan, were even turning green!

Both of them turned their heads and glared at Guo Zhengyu fiercely, with resentment in their eyes, as if they had not expected that Zhang Chonghui actually still had this hand!
……

In the lobby of the Criminal Department, the main trial was in full swing.

But the Wanli Emperor Zhu Yijun in the Qianqing Palace was troubled by several other things.

One of them was that the ministers of the DPRK and China frantically impeached the uncle Zheng Guotai for his corrupt personal ethics and kidnapping of children, which was against human ethics.

Faced with such impeachment, Zhu Yijun was speechless...

Although Zhu Yijun had ordered people to try their best to 'suppress' the matter, after Zhang Chonghui's vigorous 'publicity', almost the entire capital now knew about it...

According to reports, among the people in the capital, there are already people who are not afraid of death and are using words like "Be careful of being caught by the uncle" to scare children who like to run around.

When things developed to this point, the face of Zheng Guotai, the uncle of the country, was completely shattered, and his concubine and sister were also affected.

The "Illustrated Story of a Girlfriend", which was criticized by Concubine Zheng, has now become a "banned book" among the people. Many ordinary people said that this book is "dirty" and it is better to read less.

Lu Kun, the original author of "Illustrated Stories of Girlfriends", has cried to death because under the influence of this incident, his original version of "Illustrated Stories of Girlfriends" was tragically implicated and received a lot of criticism for no reason.

Lu Kun was very unlucky, the imperial concubine felt very sad, and Zhu Yijun was speechless...

In addition to this incident, another thing that caused Zhu Yijun a headache was the issue of "the simultaneous sealing of three kings".

So far, the merger of the three kings has been going smoothly.

The main reason is that this matter has not been widely spread yet. For the time being, only the Supervisor of Ceremonies and the Cabinet know about it.

Needless to say, the Supervisor of Ceremonies fully followed the wishes of His Majesty the Emperor and strongly supported the conferment of the three kings.

As for the three elders of the cabinet, Xu Guo had been so troubled by the demon book case that he did not dare to take care of things. He hid at home nine times out of ten.

Wang Jiaping was also tricked by the "demon book" to the point where he kept saying he was ill at home and didn't know about the "three kings being sealed together".

In other words, in the current cabinet, only Chief Assistant Wang Xijue is left in charge, and only Wang Xijue knows that the three kings are conferred the same title.

What makes Zhu Yijun feel strange and gratified is that Wang Xijue, the "thorny head", has no objection for the first time, and even expresses his support for the conferment of the three kings!
Zhu Yijun was pleased, but he was only pleased. After all, the current progress of the 'Three Kings Confederate' came to an abrupt end here.

In fact, the demon book case is getting more and more serious now because of Zheng Guotai's molestation of children. Even if Zhu Yijun wants to end it hastily, it will not be so easy.

Zhu Yijun, who originally wanted to drag the entire Zhang family into trouble, now no longer dares to ask for this. He only hopes that the demon book case will be over soon and only Zhang Chonghui will die.

For Zhu Yijun now, the most important thing is to give his three sons the title of king together!
This is also helping his beloved concubine Zheng Mengjing become the queen! He is even helping his precious son Zhu Changxun become the crown prince!
"Chen Ju, what do you think of the word '福'?"

Zhu Yijun took the big word "福" written by himself, smiled and asked Chen Ju beside him, and then said:

"I want to give the third prince a 'temporary' title with the word '福'."

Zhu Yijun no longer thinks about those complicated words, let alone those complicated meanings, to name his precious son.

Fu, has the simplest and crudest meaning!

Zhu Yijun wants his precious son Zhu Changxun to be the happiest person in the world!

Even though his precious son is only a king 'temporarily', he, as a father, doesn't want to take things lightly!

"Your Majesty, the word "Fu" is naturally very good. Your Highness will definitely be blessed with great blessings and a long life."

Chen Ju smiled sincerely and gratifiedly. After all, he felt that the word "福" was good from the bottom of his heart.

"Hahaha!" Zhu Yijun said with a hearty smile: "The three gods of fortune, wealth, and longevity are to symbolize happiness, luck, and longevity. I heard that people often say these words of blessing: good fortune and longevity, good fortune and longevity, and good luck stars shine high."

Seeing that His Majesty the Emperor was rarely so happy, Chen Ju smiled and continued: "Your Majesty, I have heard that blessing means blessing from the heavenly officials. Now the title of Your Highness, the word 'Fu', is exactly what the Emperor personally bestowed upon you. This should be considered a blessing." It’s truly a ‘blessing from heaven’!”

"Hahaha! Blessing from the Heavenly Official! What a blessing from the Heavenly Official!" Zhu Yijun smiled happily, obviously being flattered by Chen Ju's flattery.

His Majesty the Emperor was probably too happy. He was so happy that he couldn't help but want to give it to someone again.

Zhu Yijun immediately asked someone to prepare a "big piece of paper", and with a swipe of his pen, he wrote four big words "Blessing from Heavenly Official"!
His Majesty the Emperor seemed to like these four words very much, and he wrote them several times before he stopped.

However, the problem came.

"Chen Ju, why do I always feel like there's something wrong with this word?"

Zhu Yijun always felt that there was something strange about the four words he wrote, but he couldn't pinpoint what was strange.

But anyway...it's weird!
His Majesty's question made Chen Ju, who was already confused, even more confused...

"Your Majesty..." Chen Ju scratched his head and said with some embarrassment, "Ah... did you... write it backwards?"

"Ah? Wrote it backwards?" After hearing this, Zhu Yijun looked at the large characters he had just written again.

At this sight, the whole person instantly felt as if he had been struck by a giant thunder!
Zhu Yijun couldn't help but shudder when he looked at the four words "Heavenly Official Blessing" written from left to right...

While his scalp was numb, Zhu Yijun recalled the 'blood letter' that had been wandering in his dreams every night these past few nights...

"Chen Ju." Zhu Yijun put down his pen and put away his joy, and asked calmly: "Today is the second trial of the demon book case, right? How was the trial?"

"If you want to return to your Majesty, I will go right now..."

Chen Ju was just about to say that he would go and ask how the interrogation of the 'Demon Book Case' was going, but before he could finish his words, someone rushed to report it.

The person coming was Zhang Cheng.

"Your Majesty! It's not good! In the lobby of the Ministry of Justice...the ministers! They are fighting!"

……

At the same time, in the lobby of the Criminal Department.

At this moment, the situation here has become a mess.

The main purpose was to interrogate the demon book case, but the current situation has completely turned into chaos due to Zhang Chonghui's "sudden madness" and Guo Zhengyu's "forced entry"!

It was already chaotic enough, but there were still "latecomers" who didn't mind the excitement and joined in one after another!
