After receiving Xia Xun's instructions, Wang Yuxia, Li Tianhen and others immediately left Jinling and rushed to Guanhaiwei. However, when they got there, they were unable to rescue their captured brothers immediately. [] They had the Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth Army in their hands.
The government's acquittal verdict can prove their innocence, but it is impossible to directly order Guanhaiwei to release them.
Chang Xi, the commander of the Guanhai Guard, was away, so he accompanied Luo Yu, the commander of the Eastern Zhejiang Navy, to go to sea.
Shuangyu Guard is now guarded by the officers and soldiers of Taicang Guard. Luo Yu, the commander of the Eastern Zhejiang Province, is not worried. Together with Xiao Meng, the Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth Army Commandery Office who sent to Eastern Zhejiang to supervise the suppression of Japanese pirates, he is accompanied by Chang Xi, the Commander-in-Chief of the Guanhai Guard.
They went to inspect Shuangyu Island, and they only left half a day earlier than Wang Yuxia and others.
Wang Yuxia and others had no choice but to temporarily stay near Guanhaiwei. They were also very concerned about the current situation of Shuangyu Island, but they had not forgotten Xia Xun's instructions. No matter how crazy Luo Yu and others were, they did not dare to deal with it.
The people of Shuangyu Island went on a massacre and massacred a bunch of civilians, which would not do them any good. However, if the captured Shuangyu Guards officers and soldiers were released and caused trouble in anger, Shuangyu Island would be put into a passive position.
Therefore, after weighing the two factors, they stayed near Guanhaiwei. It was not until the morning of the third day that the imperial court requested the release of the Shuangyu Island soldiers and ordered Luo Yu, Ji He and others to arrive at Guanhaiwei.
After seeing the imperial court's action, the remaining generals of Guanhai Guard did not dare to neglect, and immediately released the officers and soldiers of Shuangyu Guard, and returned the weapons and warships. As soon as those arrogant and unruly Shuangyu Guard officers and soldiers received their weapons, those who were really angry and furious immediately
They were about to retaliate. They were tortured and humiliated during their imprisonment. If they raised their arms, these soldiers who did not care much about French and French military discipline were likely to respond in groups, and the frame-up turned into a real mutiny.
Fortunately, Xia Xun had the foresight and Wang Yuxia, the third leader of Shuangyu Island, was here. As soon as these people were released, he immediately came to receive them and temporarily brought them under his jurisdiction. Under his strong suppression, the riot was prevented.
evolve into.
Under Wang Yuxia's repeated explanations and forceful suppression, the team that was full of resentment and wanted to rebel was finally gathered together. The next day, the battleships, weapons, and personnel were all handed over. They boarded their own battleships and prepared to return to Shuangyu Island.
Just after opening the gate of the Navy Dazhai, their fleet has not yet gone out. The warships of Guanhaiwei inspecting Shuangyu Island came back and brought a huge fleet with them. The warships and soldiers of Taicangwei were brought back by them.
.
The returning warships also brought back shocking news: Luo Yu, the commander of the Eastern Zhejiang Navy, and Ji He, the commander of the Taicang Guards, were both killed on Shuangyu Island. It was for this reason that Xiao Mengcai, the chief minister of the Fifth Army Commander's Office who was invited to accompany the inspection, acted decisively.
He took over the command and brought back all the men and horses of the Guanhai and Taicang fleets. The officials who came to issue the decree were stunned when they heard the news, so they had to take Xiao Meng and other insiders back to the capital, and the investigation was hastily concluded.
However, this news was not without its benefits. At least the angry Shuangyu Guards officers and soldiers were greatly reduced after hearing the news, and no one was clamoring to rebel against the imperial court and become pirates again.
When the news returned to Jinling, it immediately aroused another uproar among the government and the public.
What happened?
According to Xiao Meng, the governor of the Fifth Army Governor's Office, he had been supervising the suppression of bandits in eastern Zhejiang under the orders of the Fifth Army Governor's Office. Two days before the incident, Luo Yu suddenly invited him to inspect Shuangyu Island.
After the "rebellion", Shuangyu Island was controlled by the officers and soldiers of Taicang Guard. Luo Yu had never been to the island and was a little worried.
Xiao Meng naturally had no objection to this. He was ordered to come to eastern Zhejiang for inspection and had no right to influence the actions of the naval generals. Since the navy in eastern Zhejiang is called the navy, most of the guards are actually stationed on land.
The only ones with sea ships were Guanhaiwei and Taicangwei. At this moment, Taicangwei was guarding Shuangyu Island. They could only use Guanhaiwei's warships, so they led their soldiers to Guanhaiwei. Accompanied by Chang Xi, the commander of Guanhaiwei, they rushed to Shuangyu.
Island.
After they arrived at Shuangyu, they were warmly entertained by Ji He, the commander of the Taicang Guards. They also had some wine that night, and then went to bed separately. When they woke up the next morning, Luo Yu and Ji He were nowhere to be seen. At first, they thought they were eating.
He got up late because he was drunk, so no one paid attention to them. They still didn't get up until three o'clock in the morning, so Xiao Meng and his generals went to look for them.
As a result, they found Ji He's bedroom empty, and rushed to Luo Yu's residence, only to find that Luo Yu and Ji He had already died. The two people died in a strange way. Luo Yu was holding a dagger in his hand and stabbed deeply in his body.
Ji He's heart, Ji He's waist knife was placed across Luo Yu's neck. It looked like Luo Yu suddenly attacked him, and when Ji He was dying, he suddenly counterattacked, causing both of them to die together.
At that time, Xiao Meng took more than ten senior generals from Taicang Guard and Guanhai Guard. They witnessed all this with their own eyes. These people are all witnesses and can prove what Xiao Meng said. As for why such a thing happened, all the generals were baffled.
Now, combined with the "Japanese Tong" case that has been examined, we can naturally draw a conclusion, that is: Luo Yu is the mastermind who framed his colleagues. After the incident, his informants in Beijing immediately sent back the news, and Luo Yu had to
After learning the news, he wanted to kill people and silence him, so he rushed to Shuangyu Island on the pretext of inspecting Shuangyu Island and took Xiao Meng as a cover. Then, he secretly met with Ji He and wanted to kill the insider when Ji He was not prepared.
Unexpectedly, Ji He struggled to death and killed him too.
If we consider the conclusion of the "Tongwa Case", this bizarre murder case that occurred on Shuangyu Island is obviously the only reasonable explanation. The reason why it caused an uproar is because such a thing has never been heard of in the Ming Dynasty.
Such a precedent was such that Zhu Di had to express his full concern.
At the same time, the military generals of Zhu Gaoxu's faction all agreed with this inference and hoped to close the case. However, the people of Zhu Gaochi's faction naturally refused to give up. They insisted that this was a murder planned by someone with the purpose of killing people and silencing them and protecting the real people.
The mastermind behind the scenes hopes that the emperor will continue to investigate and make the case truly known to the world.
However, the military officials of the Li faction were no longer willing to let this scandal continue to tarnish the reputation of the imperial court and did not want to continue to pursue it. They came forward one after another and agreed with the conclusion made by the people of the second prince Zhu Gaoxu, believing that the truth of the case had been revealed and there was no need to continue to investigate.
Go down. The support of the Li Faction officials caused the His Highness's faction, which had a slight upper hand, to temporarily lose its advantage, and the political situation entered the stage of stalemate and balance again.
Luo Yu's assassination of Ji He was naturally a trick directed by Xiao Meng. According to Zhu Gaoxu and Qiu Fu's plan, they intended for Xiao Meng to blame the people of Shuangyu Island for the murder. However, after Xiao Meng received the order, he acted without authorization.
Some modifications have been made to this plan. There is only one reason, to better protect yourself.
He has been ordered to patrol in eastern Zhejiang. He planned the Japanese Tong case, and he also contributed to the Tong fan case. If the deaths of Luo Yu and Ji He were blamed on the people of Shuangyu Wei, it would certainly be possible to kill people and silence them, but how could it be done?
What a coincidence, just when the truth about the "Japanese Tong case" came to light, two generals who had taken credit for their crimes were suddenly killed? If someone refused to let go and continued to pursue the case, it is hard to say that he would not be dragged into it.
Becoming a scapegoat for higher-level officials.
But after he made a slight change, it turned into Luo Yu deliberately murdering Ji He. Although it made the case more difficult and caused a bigger scandal to the court, it could better protect himself. This can prove that Luo Yu is
The mastermind, because of the incident, had a glimmer of luck and wanted to kill his accomplice Ji He to shirk responsibility. As a result, both of them died together.
Although his purpose was to protect himself, objectively, it provided a theoretical basis for the entire case to be concluded, and he won the support of Li faction officials. Therefore, after returning to Beijing, not only was he not criticized by Qiu Fu, but he was also praised by Zhu Gaoxu
.
Of course they don't know that behind them, there is an invisible hand that is promoting the escalation of their struggle, and Jihe is a member of this third-party force. When things have reached this point, the third-party force is worried about involving them, completely
After being exposed to the sun, they encouraged the officials of the Li faction to support them, hoping to stop the continued investigation of the Zhejiang Navy scandal.
It was at this time that Xia Xun returned to Jinling.
"Master, my wife is not at home. They have gone to decorate our new house. Xiaodi has been there. It is such a big house and it is particularly spectacular. The two big stone lions at the door are not that tall even if the two Xiaodi are stacked on top of each other.
, the inner courtyard is a courtyard, and Xiaodi got lost after only half a circle. Mrs. Qi said that she also wanted to put them in the pond in the backyard..."
"Xiaodi, you can talk about it later."
Manager Xiao glared at his daughter fiercely, interrupted her, and reported to Xia Xun with a large pile of invitations: "Master, these are the invitations I have received these days. Prince Consort Wang has sent people here three times to inquire.
I would like to invite you to visit me on the day when I will return to Beijing. Grand Scholar Xie Jin has sent you two invitations to have a banquet with me after you return to Beijing. Master Wu Youdao, the imperial envoy of the Imperial Procuratorate, has been here four times in person.
He said……"
"Oh? Has Wu Youdao been here?"
Xia Xun stopped, tilted his head and smiled softly, and took the greeting card from Manager Xiao. The Metropolitan Procuratorate is Chen Ying's territory, and Wu Youdao is Chen Ying's biggest competitive force. If it is
Wu Youdao wanted to show his kindness, so he had to take over this olive branch and cultivate it, and it would become his mouthpiece for Yang Xu in the court.
What he can do is not as good as what he can talk about, and what he can talk about is not as good as what he can play. Now he also needs to cultivate his own trumpeter.
Manager Xiao continued to report: "The Duke Dingguo's Mansion also sent a letter, saying that General Chizhong of Fuzhou has arrived in Beijing and is now living in the Duke Dingguo's Mansion. Please ask the Duke to return to Beijing..."
As soon as he said this, a servant hurried over and reported: "My lord, Imperial Envoy Huang Zhen of the Metropolitan Procuratorate wants to see you!"
Xia Xun laughed and said, "Huang Zhen, this guy has a dog's nose. Please sit in the study for a while. I'll be there right away!"
: Cheers, it’s almost tenth of the month, do you have any? Recommendation votes are all needed, please support me!
