After the investigation and cooperation was submitted, Long Fei turned over it for a long time and couldn't tell whether it was true or not. He passed it to Zheng Ci, Zheng Ci, Chen Ying and Xue Pin carefully examined it. After they couldn't come up with any opinions, he gave it to Zhu Gaochi.
and the two princes Zhu Gaoxu. [ ] The two princes sat there, Kanhe was placed on the table, and neither of them glanced at it.
Fake?
How could it be fake!
The Kanhe issued by the Ming Dynasty to various countries were all produced by the Ministry of Rites. The Kanhe in front of you was made overnight by the Ministry of Rites following the imperial edict, and was aged by the most experienced old craftsmen. It shows traces of sweat, water, and torture.
, it really looks like something that was issued more than 20 years ago. It can no longer be authentic, and there is no flaw even in terms of age.
Chen Ying was a little strange and didn't understand why Zhu Gaoxu seemed to have lost interest in Yang Xu's affairs, but it was inconvenient to ask at the moment. Chen Ying thought about it and refused to let it go, so she asked Long Fei to find a photo from the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion.
Let the officials come and identify the true and false.
There is a Zhaomo Division in any yamen. In fact, its function is equivalent to the current office, managing official documents and seals. Naturally, there are also people who specialize in inspecting seals. Now I asked an experienced subordinate in the Zhaomo Division to inspect it again.
Ichiban.
The old official made a careful inspection, bowed to the two princes, the three bystanders and the chief judge of the Yamen, and said with certainty: "Your Highnesses, gentlemen, I have followed the little man's inspection for many years.
Based on the seal experience, this verification is true. If your highnesses and your lords are not at ease, you can ask people from the Ministry of Rites to come. This is the verification they issued, which may give some clues."
Zhu Gaochi sat calmly and said nothing. Zhu Gaoxu couldn't help but said: "No need, so many adults have passed it, and you have also passed it. If there is no problem, it should be true!"
Chen Ying refused to give up and said suspiciously: "Even if this investigation is true, why didn't you come up with it in the first place?"
Lu Mingzhi pointed to the small school and said confidently: "They rushed onto our ship like wolves and tigers. There is no excuse at all. They immediately accused us of smuggling. How could the common people dare to take Kanhe out if they are so weird? If they were thrown in
The sea can no longer wash away wrongs."
Chen Ying rolled her eyes and said gloomily: "Then, haven't they searched your bodies before? Even if they have searched you, they will still be searched again once you enter the prison of the Ministry of Punishment. Nothing can be brought in with the prisoners in the prison.
, how is it possible that this Kanhe is still hidden in you?"
As soon as he said this, Shang Zhengci of the Ministry of Punishment suddenly changed his expression and said displeasedly: "Master Du Yushi, what are you talking about? Are you suspecting that our Ministry of Punishment is perverting the law for personal gain?"
Yesterday, there were people coming in and out of the prison of the Ministry of Justice several times, but they were all people sent by the palace, people sent by the emperor. Zheng Ci was so confident that he was not afraid that Chen Ying, who was picketing all the officials, would poke this hornet's nest.
Chen Ying wanted to say more, but Zhu Gaoxu said calmly: "Okay, since it has been proven that this investigation is true, just continue the trial. Why do you two adults need to create extraneous matters!"
Chen Yingxin was even more surprised, so she had no choice but to obey the order. The junior college sent by Ji He was mainly here to serve as a witness, because he was the one who found the so-called account books. Of course, he was also present at the seizure of the Luzon merchant ship and was considered a witness.
But now there are only witnesses and no evidence. All Luzon merchants have changed their confessions and produced the most powerful evidence: genuine evidence.
As for why they appeared in Shuangyu, they also had a strong explanation, and they also slapped the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion: Because you were incompetent in suppressing bandits, the Japanese pirates went to Fuzhou, and the Nanyang robber Chen Zuyi also followed suit. We had no choice but to divert to Shuangyu. Shuangyu is already your territory of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty’s army is stationed there. We have come all the way, so how do we know what happened there?
Although Ji Hena's personal soldier is just a humble little person, who can be the commander-in-chief's personal soldier, who is not smart and good at observing faces? When I see that the situation is not good, if I continue to pick up on this matter, I will only ask for trouble. , he immediately changed his story, saying that Shuangyu Guards were originally pirates, and had rebelled against the imperial court at that time. After they took control of Shuangyu, they suddenly saw the Luzon merchant ship appear, so they naturally thought it was an ordinary smuggling merchant ship. After all, Shuangyu Guards did not When a municipal shipping department is established, the presence of foreign merchant ships is abnormal.
Of course, their claims that they were taking refuge in Yang Xu, the Duke of Fu, were also pushed out by the small school. The clerk on some merchant ship must have heard of Duke Fu's name, and deliberately brought it up to scare them, leading to misunderstanding. However, Naturally, he didn't remember who the man on the ship was. Such a vague explanation would never pass the interrogation. Even if Zheng Ci, Xue Pin and even Long Fei deliberately let things go, Chen Ying, who did not rub sand in his eyes, would not give up.
However, what is surprising is that the two princes who were just listening in the audience unexpectedly agreed to the explanation of the junior high school student. Chen Ying was like a gourd with a saw-shaped gourd. Ying left the court, and Zhu Gaoxu also took the opportunity to follow him out. Only then did Chen Ying know that Yang Xu was escorted by the emperor and could not move.
Zhu Gaoxu couldn't tell the specific reason. Even if Chen Ying was his confidant, the fewer people who knew about the matter involving Emperor Jian, the better. He didn't need to explain so much to Chen Ying. So Zhu Gaoxu didn't tell him the reason. Just tell him: Your Majesty protects Yang Xu. This man can no longer be moved. We don't need to continue to entangle him. We just need to end the case as soon as possible and finalize the Japanese Tong case.
After receiving this letter, Chen Ying's attitude changed completely when he returned to the court. However, he was still worried. What he worried about just now was: how to defeat Yang Xu, but now he is worried about it. How can we save Yang Xu? Because of the crime of Tongfan, although the appearance of Kanhe and the retraction of the confession by the businessman surnamed Lu can be cancelled, the account book...
That was a prop concocted by the people below to criticize Yang Xu with the instructions from above, but now it has become a shackles on themselves. How can you prove that this account book is also fake in front of everyone?
In fact, even Zhu Di is not sure whether this account book is true or false. He can't just rely on Yang Xu's one-sided remarks, right?
Yang Xu said that the foreign businessman was helping him find the whereabouts of Emperor Jian, so he had certain conveniences with the foreign businessman. Suddenly he was shocked to find that one of his most trusted people, Yang Xu or Qiu Fuqi, was deceiving him. Zhu Di was uneasy and wanted to send Zheng He went to prison to confirm in person to prove that what Yang Xu said was true. If the account book was true or false, how could he believe Yang Xu's words?
However, Zhu Di didn't care much about whether Yang Xu accepted gifts. What he cared about was whether Yang Xu had connections with foreign countries, and whether he used his official authority to communicate with many foreign countries and make friends with big businessmen who had great influence in the country. If you dare to do this, you will dare to do more illegal things in the future. And if you just accept gifts...
Shuangyu Guards was recruited by Yang Xu. When Zhu Di had not yet conquered the country, Yang Xu had friendship with these pirates. His three sons used these talents to turn the corner and escaped back to Peking smoothly. After that, Yang Xu Xu once had a quarrel with the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion because of the leader of Shuangyu. For these reasons, it was okay for the Shuangyu Guards to give Yang Xu a few expensive gifts.
Zhu Di never believed that if Yang Xu knew that Shuangyu Guards had an affair with Japanese pirates, he would have accepted a few gifts from them to cover up such a serious crime that would never be redeemed. Therefore, according to Zhu Di's intention, this receiving of gifts was true. No matter whether it's a lie or not, it doesn't matter. As long as it's proven that Xia Xun didn't get through, this matter won't matter. We still have to save him!
Therefore, Chen Ying could not make a big deal out of this incident, and even had to protect Yang Xu.
At this time, the problem arises.
Just as Yang Xu and Ji Gang said when they were playing chess in prison, the enemy opened fire and only focused on attacking. Now they are trapped too deep. Some of the pawns crossing the river have no way to retreat and cannot be saved.
Only by saying that the account book is fake can Yang Xu be cleansed. If the account book is fake, it proves that someone deliberately framed him and used the Shuangyu Weitong Japanese incident to frame Fu Guogong, so someone has to take the responsibility.
Could this person be from a mere elementary school?
They were trapped too deep. When they tried to defend themselves, it was already too late to escape. At this time, they could only save themselves and save the overall situation!
Everything is being deduced step by step according to Xia Xun's chess game arrangement...
※※※※※※
Xia Xun's first crime, which was also the most serious one, had been cleared at this time. Lu Mingzhi and the others were announced to be released in court, and the goods were returned. As soon as these people moved out with their miscellaneous goods, The court became much quieter, and now it was finally the turn of Xia Xun and Ji He's personal soldiers who were sitting there to fight in the ring.
Just now, Xia Xun didn't even bother to refute the charges against him. From the trial to the conclusion of the "Tongfan Crime" case, as the defendant, he didn't defend himself word by word. He just sat there so aggressively until the charges were laid. Cleared, these defendants can be considered the first of their kind.
And Long Duanshi, as the chief judge, actually sat there like a clay body and a wood sculpture. Until the trial of this crime was concluded, it was not his turn to speak. From the beginning to the end, he sat there just like a decoration. Such a presiding judge, looking everywhere In ancient and modern times, it is unprecedented and unprecedented.
This case has set two records in the history of national court trials: the presiding judge has not said a word, and the defendant has not said a word.
Now, Xia Xun, who had been sitting there quietly, finally had to face the interrogation of the presiding judge directly. Because Chen Ying, Xue Pin, and Zheng Ci were not willing to talk to him directly. Zheng Ci was leaning towards him and was unwilling to Judge him; Xue Pin is a fence-sitting faction, and he plans to continue to sit on the fence; Chen Ying has clearly understood that it is impossible to overthrow Yang Xu in this matter. It might also seriously damage the vitality of her own side, so now Chen Ying just wants to muddy the waters and end the case hastily, just like the previous trial.
Long Fei cleared his throat and said: "Yang Xu, I am here to judge you for accepting a gift from Shuangyu Guards Commander Xu Hu who had an affair with Japanese pirates..."
Xia Xun put down his legs, his eyes were bright, and he said loudly: "Your Excellency, I object!"
After saying this, Xia Xun stood up excitedly.
Next, he will create a third record for the court trial: the defendant himself will try his own case!
