Jinyi Night Walk

Chen Ying finished the verbal battle in the hall, and walked back in a huff.

He determined that the fire at the Dabaoen Temple must be a farce directed and performed by the prince's faction.However, thanks to his consistent "good official voice" and the fact that he and Xia Xun have always opposed each other's political stances, most of the officials, and the most abhorrent of them are some officials from the Second Prince's faction, also decided to repay their kindness. He was responsible for the fire in the temple, everyone looked at him with ambiguous eyes, making Chen Ying extremely depressed.

He was really wronged, but who would he explain to?This matter is clearly getting darker and darker.

As a result, before he left the palace gate, the eunuch Gou'er caught up with the imperial decree, telling him to come up with the result of the trial no matter what.

How easy is it to try an official who is much older than him?In the past, when Chen Ying punished someone, it was always a matter of time. Now, not only is the interrogation process tied up, but the emperor even urged him to end the trial immediately. Don't you know the reason why the carrot is about to be washed away?Chen Ying was full of embarrassment.

Civil and military officials went down to the court one after another. At this time, no matter whether it was Wen Lou or not, there were few officials who took sedan chairs. Those who went far away took sedan chairs.All the officials got on their horses one after another and left the imperial city along the imperial road. As soon as Chen Ying left the imperial city, someone shouted loudly by the side of the road: "You are wronged! You are wronged!"

Chen Ying reined in her horse in astonishment, and looked to the side of the road, and saw a young woman, holding a child in her arms, rushing towards the road with a mournful cry.This is the upper court, not an official on patrol, and there is no need to put on a guard of honor, but there are also people around him, who have already stepped forward to stop the woman, and there are two officials beside him, and the accompanying guards also stepped forward to stop the woman. Fu men rammed officials.

The woman burst into tears and shouted: "The people are wronged! The people are wronged! Lord Chen Ying, Lord Chen Ying, which master is Lord Chen Ying, Chen Qingtian, you have to be the master of the people! The minister of the people! It’s a good citizen, it’s really not the White Lotus Sect!” The officials of the various yamen who had just rushed out of the imperial city heard someone calling for grievances, and they were already paying attention. When they heard the word “White Lotus Sect” again, they immediately knew that they would have to fight with the Fuguo Gong Yang Xu. The case was related, and one by one immediately stood on their feet and never left again. The officials who came out one after another were blocked at the entrance of the imperial city. The officials who had just finished arguing in the court hall had another meeting on the street.

"Come on, bring Mrs. Hua forward!"

Chen Ying couldn't help but talk, all the civil and military officials in the court were watching. Just now in the court hall, he had become the mastermind of arson who urged Yang Xu to be guilty. At this time, someone called for injustice, and it was related to the case of the White Lotus Sect. He didn't accept the case. , isn't this his crime?Furthermore, no matter whether it is Yang Xu's downfall or Ji Gang's downfall, it will benefit him and not harm him at all. There is really no need for him to sit on the wrong side of the case.

The lady was brought in front of Chen Ying, and Chen Ying took a look: "Oh! Don't look at Jingchai, who is dressed in a cloth skirt, and her clothes are vulgar and unkempt, like a beggar. Take a closer look, she looks pretty pretty!" Fu "porphyrin" knelt down in front of Chen Ying's horse, and cried loudly: "My lord, are you Chen Qingtian, Mr. Chen? The people are wronged, wronged!"

Chen Ying's nose was sour, tears almost fell down.He was also wronged, really wronged!But none of the civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty believed him, and most of the officials who belonged to the Second Prince's faction held prejudices against him. He was fair and at ease, and in front of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, he was knelt and called "Chen Qingtian" by others. Even though she knew it was Xiaomin's compliment, Chen Ying was still very pleased.

He coughed and replied solemnly: "This official is Chen Ying from the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Who is kneeling down, and why is he complaining?"

The young man said: "Minfu Xu Su's husband is Xu Zeheng, originally from Putai County, Shandong. Suddenly, one day, some big men came to the door with knives, claiming to be imperial guards, and first kidnapped Minfu. Then they wanted to arrest Minfu's husband, because Minfu's husband called out to the neighbors for help, and those people left Minfu and captured Minfu's husband and left.

My lord, although Minfu is a rural lady, she has also heard of the great reputation of Jinyiwei. Knowing that Putai County cannot protect her safety, Minfu hid with her child in her arms, but Minfu's husband is still missing. , life or death unknown.The people's fu had no choice but to beg all the way to the capital, only thinking that although Jin Yiwei is domineering, the local officials are afraid of him, and there are always people in charge of them in the capital, so the people's fu went around to inquire..."

Su Xinchen wiped away his tears, and said, "Minfu has been looking around in Nanjing city, and everyone said that since this case fell into Jin Yiwei's hands, there is only one person in Nanjing who dares to uphold justice for Minfu. Chen Ying and Chen Qingtian from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the civil servant just asked about the way to go to court, and waited here for your lord to come out! My lord, my husband was wronged. The civil servant and her husband have been married for several years, and they have their own flesh and blood again. What kind of person is he, don't the officials know? My lord, my husband has a proper surname, he is not a white lotus demon!"

Standing in the crowd, Dai Yubin couldn't help smiling slightly when he heard this: "This little lady is not bad, I didn't train her in vain, what I said is very good!" Hearing that only Chen Ying and Chen Qingtian from the Metropolitan Procuratorate dared to fight with the arrogant The domineering Jin Yiwei resisted, Chen Ying did his part, and glanced at the court officials on the left and right with some protests, then looked down at Su Xinchen, and said in a deep voice: "Xu Su, do you know that your husband has already confessed to being a bandit of the White Lotus Sect It's impossible!" "Impossible, this is impossible, Master Qingtian, this must be a trick of torture!" Chen Ying's face darkened, and Su Qiuchen hurriedly said: "No, no, Master Qingtian, the people's fu is not talking about you, the people's fu is Said that Jin Yiwei must have been tortured into a trick! It is said in the market: "Enter the gate of Jin Yiwei, enter the mouth of King Yama, the living will become ghosts, ghosts will peel off their skins, relatives will be taken away in the morning, and coffins will have to be buried that night "When my husband fell into their hands, I don't know how much torture he would have to suffer before he would be manipulated by others and consider himself a monster. My lord, you have to be the master of the people!"

Chen Ying listened to her scolding Jin Yiwei, and clearly conveyed Jin Yiwei's arrogance to all the civil and military people present. Thinking of the embarrassment and anger of his old enemy Ji Gang after hearing about it, Chen Ying couldn't help feeling happy, and said: "Xu Su, since you When your husband was handed over to this official office, this official sent people to Shandong Mansion to look for you. You are both an important suspect and an important witness. Since I saw you today, I will take you back for interrogation. How dare you fight with me? Is your husband confronting you in court? Don't worry, I will investigate the case, I will be fair and honest, and I will never torture you to extract a confession!"

When it comes to this matter, Chen Ying has already made up his mind to fall to Yang Xu's side.The case was originally unclear, except for Xu Zeheng, an important witness, there was no stronger evidence.Originally, if someone made a complaint, he had to investigate it. The evidence could not have been there long ago, waiting for him to use it. If so, what case would be investigated?Just pronounce the verdict.

The evidence is to determine the guilt or innocence of the defendant after investigating the case. He also wanted to take this opportunity to overthrow Yang Xu, but the problem is that he didn't know if Yang Xu had tampered with it a long time ago. He couldn't get any strong evidence. It was Xu Zeheng who attracted Xu's suspicion. Now Xu Zeheng's wife and children actually came to Beijing to sue him, even in front of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

Xu Zeheng and his wife must confront each other. As long as Xu Zeheng, the only witness, withdraws his confession, Jin Yiwei will be in danger.After figuring out this joint, the scheming Chen Ying immediately made up his mind, and his gun began to point towards the second target!

Su Xinchen is a girl from a poor family. Since she was a child, she has been doing things outside in the public eye. She collects money and does things in the bastard. It is common for the customers who come in and out to make fun of them and use their hands and feet. After a long time of practice, she is not a person Men blushed at every word and didn't know women, and Dai Yubin continued to train him from time to time. Dai Yubin was the chief interrogator to simulate the conversation with her and teach her how to deal with all possible questions and questions. The scene, how can I panic.

After hearing the words, Su Xinchen raised her face and said firmly: "Master Qingtian, the Fu firmly believes that my husband is innocent and wronged, and the Fu is willing to go back to the Yamen with the Lord Qingtian to clear up my husband's grievances! "

Chen Ying smiled deeply, and said, "Okay! Come on, bring Xu Su's mother and son with you, and go back to the Metropolitan Procuratorate!"

How could Jin Yiwei hide the fact that he was born at the mouth of the palace?As soon as Chen Ying returned to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Ji Gang received the news.

Ji Gang's face was terribly seyin, and he wasn't worried about counter-evidence. How could there be no counter-evidence in such a big lawsuit.If there is no counter-evidence, you will see a ghost, but if there is counter-evidence, you will definitely be able to reverse the case?

His first reliance was treason.This crime has always been the emperor's rebellion, even though he is as close as a father and son, it cannot be violated.At such a young age, Yang Xu is already an extremely powerful minister, with countless contacts in the military and political circles, as long as he has anything to do with conspiracy, the emperor will never dare to take it lightly.

His second reliance is Chen Ying.He didn't believe that Chen Ying would let go of this good opportunity to crush Yang Xu. He and Chen Ying were two Yan Jun-level figures in Jinling City. He was vicious, but what made Chen Ying fearful was his clever tricks and his dark scheming.

Ji Gang is very clear that to bring down such a heavyweight as Yang Xu, it is not possible to do it by conspiracy alone, but when it comes to public cases and criminal prosecutions, he knows that he is far inferior to Chen Ying. In this case, Xia Xun is Chen Ying's opponent who must be put to death. How can Chen Ying not accept this good opportunity?

At the same time, Ji Gang was not idle.Has he really withdrawn all Jin Yiwei to the capital?

No, in Qingzhou and Putai, his secret agents are looking for information everywhere.It's just that he is still acting in secret. He originally acted in secret because he didn't want to scare the snake, and he didn't want to make Yang Xu prepared before he got the real evidence, so that he could prepare for the battle in advance and destroy all the evidence.But now, he was forced by his own sensitive identity in the case.

However, the White Lotus Sect has been recognized as an orthodox religion for a short time, and it has been regarded as a cult for a long time. From the day of its birth, it has been secretly preached under the severe crackdown of the government. The suppression of the White Lotus Sect by the imperial court in [-] was a test of blood and fire for these White Lotus Sect members. Now that you openly investigate, you can never imagine that the hawker at the door and the gentleman who tested the characters in front of the temple are the White Lotus Sect, let alone a secret investigation. Has been working to no avail.

When Ji Gang heard the news, he immediately realized that the matter might be doomed.

He silently looked at Zhu Tu and Chen Yunan standing in front of him, in a daze, he seemed to see two pig heads on the incense case...! .
