Outside the palace gate, many old ministers angrily wanted to see Emperor Cheng Wu. Most of these people were civil servants of the Third Academy and old scholars of the Imperial Academy, and they were extremely pedantic at heart. Even though Martin Tian had served as ministers in the same palace as them before, but in Tianlao
During that time, these people were so hateful that their teeth ached. Martin ordered the guards of the Ministry of Punishment to be rude to these people, and they suffered a lot in the humid prison. According to the tradition that has been passed down for thousands of years, these veterans felt that they should be punished.
Killing the traitor is a matter of course. After being tortured in prison, in their eyes, it seems that if they don't hold the traitor accountable, they will suffer a big loss.
The old master Wang Bingkun was so depressed that his face turned red. He held up a bamboo pole and cursed Zhu Tianjiang loudly. In Wang Bingkun's heart, it didn't matter whether Martin died or not. He wished that Emperor Cheng Wu would kill Zhu Tianjiang.
The guy would only be happy if he was beaten to death with sticks.
Emperor Chengwu had received the news a long time ago. Wei Zhan stood beside him with a wry smile and shook his head. He didn't know how to evaluate Zhu Tianjiang's success. Emperor Chengwu almost lost his temper when Anzi said it just now.
Take the breath away.
"This little bastard, he actually makes me so angry." Emperor Cheng Wu walked back and forth in front of the imperial case with his hands behind his back.
"Master, those old ministers are waiting outside, whether to announce it or not!" Wei Zhenghai asked carefully for instructions.
Emperor Chengwu took two deep breaths and forced himself to calm down, "Wei Zhan, do you think this little monkey wants to force me to kill him?"
"Your Majesty! He did this just because he wanted you to be replaced." Wei Zhan knew the thoughts of Emperor Chengwu best, and he did not expect Zhu Tianjiang to do such a trick.
Emperor Chengwu forced Zhu Tianjiang to kill the Feng and E clans, which not only suppressed Zhu Tianjiang's prestige among the people, but also ended up as a dishonest one among the ministers. Wei Zhan did not expect that Zhu Tianjiang would
Jiangzhen dared to risk the disapproval of the world and acquit Martin Tian, the leader of the rebels.
"This kid is very damaging. He knows that I have made such great achievements and I can't kill him before he dares to do this. Huh! If you want to fight me, then I'll see how this kid goes on. I don't care about that.
Rebellious ministers, but the Feng and E clans must not survive." After Emperor Chengwu said with a livid face, he immediately asked Wei Zhenghai to go to the Zongren Mansion to find Prince Jing. These old ministers outside the palace gate, without Prince Jing to disturb them, Emperor Chengwu would not be able to pester them.
rise.
Prince Jing had just received the news and was about to go back to his mansion to hide when he was blocked by Wei Zhenghai outside the clan's mansion. Prince Jing had no choice but to take a group of clan's mansion officials to prepare for peace with Xini.
In Qian Palace, a group of veteran ministers were in a passionate mood, and they all angrily denounced Zhu Tianjiang's crimes. These people did not ask for anything else, they only asked Emperor Cheng Wu to remove this boy from the position of Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, even if he was made the Generalissimo of the Central Army.
It doesn't matter, I just want to stop being embarrassed and conspicuous. Such a penalty will only make Dafeng Dynasty a laughing stock in other countries.
Emperor Chengwu showed his face and said, "Replace this boy, and one of you will be the judge. It's not that I haven't asked before, but now I'm here to look after him."
"Your Majesty, where can I put my face with Zhu Tianjiang's behavior?" an old censor from the Metropolitan Procuratorate said excitedly.
"I don't understand, what does Zhu Tianjiang's punishment of Martin Tian have to do with you?" Emperor Cheng Wu looked at everyone strangely.
Wang Bingkun stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, this is wrong. Even the leader of the rebels, Martin Tiantian, is not innocent, so how can we try other guilty ministers?"
Emperor Chengwu was so congested that he couldn't speak directly about some things, "I have already issued an imperial edict, and the matter will be handed over to the Ministry of Punishment, and the palace will no longer interfere. Don't forget, I am now in the stage of introspection. If I start again,
If I issue an edict, doesn't it mean that I have gone back on my word?"
"Your Majesty, this matter is related to the overall situation. Let me ask, if those guilty ministers are not guilty, and we ministers were sent to prison, doesn't it mean that we are guilty ministers." Wang Bingkun said angrily.
Emperor Chengwu felt as if he had eaten a bitter gourd. He had set a trap for Zhu Tian, but he didn't expect that this kid would throw another trap in his direction. Wang Bingkun was right. If those guilty officials were not guilty, it does not mean that they were imprisoned.
The veteran minister was guilty. According to Zhu Tianjiang, Martin Tian was acting in accordance with the order, but Wang Bingkun and the others were disobeying the order.
"My lord, I have decided not to interfere with this matter. You should go find Zhu Tianjiang to argue. Besides, as the deputy chief judge, you, my lord, are not just sitting around watching the fun." Emperor Cheng Wu glared at Wang Bingkun.
, I said in my heart, what else can you do besides kneel down and remonstrate? At such an old age, you can't even deal with a little monkey cub.
"Your Majesty, although I am the deputy chief judge, the presiding judge has the right to make the decision. Unless the Emperor orders the veteran to be the chief judge, no one can do anything to him." Wang Bingkun finally figured it out and followed Zhu Tian to live.
If you are angry, you might as well be the judge yourself.
"Humph! What have you done before? If you want to preside over the trial now, my will will become child's play." Emperor Chengwu thought to himself, if it wasn't to kill the Feng and E clans, why would I spend so much effort?
A group of people were noisy and elected Wang Bingkun as the chief judge, insisting on replacing Zhu Tianjiang. Emperor Chengwu gritted his teeth. When he got this job, he wanted to see what Zhu Tianjiang would do in the future. The more innocent he was, the more he was acquitted.
People, killing the Feng and E families in the end will be even more unfavorable to Zhu Tianjiang. It is even said that it is likely to arouse the anger of the ministers and people. Because Zhu Tianjiang killed the Feng and E families, it was tantamount to doing things unfairly, and he also ruined his excellent reputation.
Mrs. Guo and Prince Jing reached the point of betrayal.
Emperor Chengwu frowned and said, "I am not feeling well. There is no need to discuss this matter further. Wei Zhenghai, please come back to your residence." Emperor Chengwu didn't even want to say anything more and started to drive people away.
"Your Majesty, if you don't come up with an explanation today, I won't leave. If you think I deserve to die, just kill him." Wang Bingkun said, fell to his knees and raised the bamboo pole.
When Emperor Chengwu saw it, he was here again, and it was like this every time. Emperor Chengwu glanced at King Jing, and King Jing smiled bitterly, waved his hand and said, "Come here, please go to the clan mansion and speak slowly.
I will make the decision for him."
It was still the same routine as before. Wang Bingkun was almost going crazy. No matter how he cursed, he was still sent out by the clan officials.
All the ministers did not leave this time, and followed them to the Zongren Mansion. King Jing's words just now reminded them that King Jing had a whip in his hand, which could completely stop Zhu Tianjiang's misbehavior.
When Wang Bingkun heard what others said, he got smart and forced Prince Jing to go to the Ministry of Punishment with him. Zhu Tianjiang had already warned Prince Jing not to let him appear in the Ministry of Punishment. Although King Jing knew that his brother was forcing Zhu Tianjiang
He used the killing knife, but he didn't know exactly what Zhu Tianjiang did. Since Zhu Tianjiang had a plan, Prince Jing certainly wouldn't destroy it. With the help of urine escape, the dignified Prince Jing actually abandoned a group of ministers and ran back secretly.
to the palace.
Wang Bingkun and a group of veterans wanted to make a big quarrel in the Zongren Mansion. However, the quarrel was noisy, and these people had no solution. Finally, under Wang Bingkun's suggestion, all the veterans went to the lobby of the Ministry of Justice.
These people got the news from Zhu Tianjiang on the way. Since Emperor Chengwu came and ignored him, Zhu Tianjiang could only implement his second plan.
In the lobby of the Criminal Department, only Da Niu was walking around with a few government officials. No one else was there. Even Shen Baigong had returned to the Inspector's Office.
"Where's Zhu Tianjiang? Let him get out." Wang Bingkun led a group of people and cursed angrily.
"What's the fuss about? My master has returned home." Daniel glared at everyone, holding a big iron rod in his hand.
These veterans all knew that Daniel was a bad guy, so they really didn't dare to get serious with him. Despite the roar, no one dared to come forward.
Wang Bingkun asked with a cold face, "I'm going to ask Zhu Tianjiang if Martin Tian is not guilty, then we are guilty. Daniel, I know this kid is in the back hall, let him come out quickly."
Daniel looked at Wang Bingkun strangely, "Sir, are you guilty or not? It's none of my business?"
"Shut up, you have no business talking here, go and call someone!" Wang Bingkun scolded angrily.
"I'm talking about old guy, I'm a fourth-grade imperial guard with a stick. I can even walk around the court, let alone the lobby of the Ministry of Justice." Dan Niu looked at everyone with a disgraceful look.
The ministers were angry and angry, and there was nothing they could do when they encountered such a fool. Wang Bingkun picked up the bamboo pole and forced his way in.
Daniel raised his iron bar and said, "Wait a minute! Sir, my master has actually left a message. He asked me to tell you that today's penalty was wrong. Tomorrow morning, the penalty will be re-judged. That boy Martin was not released either.
It's still closed now." After Daniel finished speaking, he looked at everyone happily.
Wang Bingkun and others were stunned and looked at Daniel in disbelief, "Are you telling the truth?" Wang Bingkun asked quickly.
"Tch! If you don't believe me, just go to the Ministry of Punishment Prison and make sure not a single person is missing." Daniel said nonchalantly.
At this time, the ministers were a little confused. They didn't understand what Zhu Tianjiang was making, and he was simply making fun of Dafeng's laws. Wang Bingkun felt a little tight in his chest, thinking that this kid finally turned around, and there was no such thing.
Mistake after mistake.
Wang Bingkun turned around and said, "Dear ministers, since Zhu Tianjiang knows his mistakes and can correct them, I will give him another chance. I hope all ministers will come tomorrow and we will supervise this boy's trial together. We are all in Dafeng
Sir, we must never let anyone break the law."
"What you said makes sense~!"
"That's right, I'll be here tomorrow~!"
A group of old ministers echoed one after another, finally feeling a little comforted.
Daniel sneered as he watched everyone leave, saying to himself that I didn't say that you will kill someone tomorrow, just that you made a wrong judgment. Damn it, if two people are really angry to death tomorrow, it has nothing to do with me.
