Jiankang City, Taicheng, Taiji Hall.
Liu Yu was dressed in formal court attire, and he and Wang Mi ranked first among the two groups of civil and military officials, while Liu Yi and He Wuji stood side by side, standing behind him, above the main hall, on the dragon couch, Sima Dezong was still following
He was lying like this like a vegetative person who knew nothing about life and death, while Sima Dewen was standing on the side of the dragon couch. The jade seal symbolizing the authority of the imperial court was placed on a small case on Sima Dewen's right hand side.
Today is a rare grand meeting where the three giants of the Northern Prefecture are present together. Many matters will be drafted and sealed on the spot.
Sima Dewen glanced across the entire palace. Ever since Wang Miaoyin handed over the jade seal, the person who could hold the seal and hold the power became His Royal Highness King Langya. His eyes finally fell behind Liu Yu.
He Wuji smiled slightly: "He Governor, this time the imperial court promoted you to the rank of General Zhennan, leading the governor of Jiangzhou, the military governor of Jiang and Xiangzhou, and the military commander of Jiangxia County. It can be said that you will take over the important tasks in the west.
It has been entrusted to you. You must live up to the high expectations of the court and make new contributions to the country."
He Wuji stood up and bowed: "Wuji has received great favor from the country and has nothing to repay. He can only do his best and be loyal to the country."
Sima Dewen nodded and said, "Ministers and generals, what other important matters do you need to report?"
He Wuji said loudly: "Your Majesty, I have a report. Yin Zhongwen, the governor of Dongyang, is from the remnant party of Huan Chu. He contributed a lot to the usurpation of the throne by the traitor Huan Xuan. He should have been killed for favoritism, but because of this
Zeng had done meritorious service and rescued the Queen, so His Majesty showed mercy and granted him a special pardon, and also allowed him to serve as the governor of Dongyang."
Sima Dewen nodded: "These are old things. What is the purpose of the governor mentioning them again?"
He Wuji gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "This animal has received such a great favor from the country. He should have shed tears of gratitude and served the country to atone for his previous sins. However, he went the extra mile and even secretly colluded with the remaining members of the Huan family to inform them.
, betrayed the military secrets of the imperial court, so that the frontline soldiers repeatedly failed to suppress rebellions, because of the mobilization of our troops, all military information was grasped by the enemy, so we were passive everywhere."
Sima Dewen's face changed slightly: "He Governor, is there any real evidence for this matter?"
He Wuji took out a few letters from his sleeves and raised them high in the air: "These letters are from a few days ago, when Liu Huaisu, the general of the auxiliary state and the governor of Huainan, defeated Huan Shisui, the remaining party of Huan Chu who was entrenched in Hutao Mountain.
, Sima Guofan, Chen Xi and other thieves. The two thieves Huan and Chen were given the title, while Sima Guofan escaped by chance. In their lair, they found these letters, which were all written by Yin Zhongwen himself. His handwriting and
The writing is known to everyone in the world, and if you have any doubts about it, you can compare it."
There was a burst of exclamation among the civil servants, and Xie Huan cursed bitterly: "No wonder this guy couldn't even go to Governor He's literary conference the day before yesterday. It turns out that there is something wrong with him!"
Xi Sengshi smiled and said: "He Jiangzhou, did you deliberately hold a banquet to lure him here and then expose him in public?"
He Wuji waved his hand and said seriously: "That's not true. When we held the banquet that day, I hadn't received these letters yet. I thought he was really sick at that time, but I didn't expect that he had something evil in his heart.
Pretending to be sick!”
Liu Yi's voice sounded coldly from one side: "To correct what Governor He said, Yin Zhongwen was not pretending to be ill, but was planning to escape. After Sima Guofan escaped, he quickly reported the news to him, so he took advantage of the situation.
The immigrant from Dongyang County used the excuse of going to Jiangbei to leave the territory without authorization. In fact, he wanted to take the opportunity to escape to Jiangbei. However, he did not receive an order and could not cross the river privately, so he also wanted to use it as an excuse to offer gifts and music to Liu Zhenjun.
, wanted to obtain Liu Zhenjun's approval slip so that he could escape across the river, but fortunately Liu Zhenjun insisted on his principles and repelled him, thus cutting off his escape path."
Meng Chang, who was standing on the left, frowned: "Won't he run away on his own?"
Liu Yi shook his head: "Yin Zhongwen is a scholar and is not familiar with military matters. Even if he escapes for his life, he still has to ride in a car or a public transport. He can neither ride a horse nor walk. Therefore, after he was rejected, he thought of finding other ways.
, asked the familiar high-ranking family members to ask for his life, but unfortunately, people are not as good as God. As soon as the governor arrived, he was in chaos, and my subordinates had already targeted him, and they had been monitoring him and would not allow him to do so.
He’s out of town!”
Sima Dewen sighed: "The country has been so kind to this thief, why does he want to repay the favor like this?!"
He Wuji sneered and said: "It can be seen from these letters that Yin Zhongwen not only did not accept the country's favor, but also complained that the court did not give him the prime minister he had been in Huanchu, so he had different ambitions. He also instigated Sima, who was a member of the clan.
Guofan, what nonsense are you saying that Liu Zhenjun and I and other old Beifu generals are thieves like Huan Xuan. They want to usurp the Jin Dynasty and deny the opportunity to the Sima clan prince. This is how you deceived Sima Guofan, a fool, into betraying the Jin Dynasty.
"
Sima Dewen said bitterly: "This thief really deserves to be cut into pieces with a thousand swords. Where is Meng Pushe?"
Meng Chang responded, and Sima Dewen said in a deep voice: "Meng Pushe, you are in charge of the Du Guan Shangshu and are responsible for prison affairs. I will let you try this case. How about it?"
Meng Chang looked at He Wuji: "Please also ask He Jiangzhou to hand over the relevant evidence to me. I will arrest Yin Zhongwen immediately and try the case quickly."
Wang Mi suddenly said: "Your Majesty, I think that Yin Zhongwen is treasonous and unethical. It may be because he saw that Huan Yin, Diao Yong and other Huan Chu party members were killed before, and he felt uneasy. If this matter is brought to trial, the implications will be too wide.
I am afraid that it will further turmoil people's hearts. If there is irrefutable evidence of Yin Zhongwen's rebellion, then try to kill one person to uphold the law of the country, and it is not appropriate to make it a major case."
Sima Dewen softly said "Oh" and was about to speak, but Liu Yi on the side sneered: "Wang Lugong (Lu Shangshushi) finally cracked this big case, just to get to the bottom of it and dig out more details."
There are so many good opportunities to rebel against thieves, why do you want to stop them? Could it be that you have something to do with this Yin Zhongwen?"
Wang Mi's expression changed and he said sternly: "Liu Fujun, although Yin Zhongwen and I were both officials in the same palace during the puppet dynasty, we had no choice but to have any friendship, let alone being officials in the Huanchu regime.
, you and I have been fooled, so why should we hold on to Yin Zhongwen? Now that the Jin Dynasty has just returned to the country, and His Majesty has returned not long ago, what needs to be done is to calm people's hearts, rather than create a big case and involve too many people!"
Liu Yi said coldly: "Wang Lugong, what you said reminds me that when we were in Puppet Chu, Yin Zhongwen and Bian Fanzhi seemed to have made many suggestions, asking Huan Xuan to get rid of us old Beifu generals.
From the beginning, Liu Zhenjun left no one behind. You didn’t seem to say anything at that time not to get involved too much. Also, when Huan Chu usurped the country, where was the jade seal of Jin Dynasty?!"
