However, in the face of the witchcraft case, Queen Mother Zhang's physical problems were not discussed for the time being.
In comparison, this major case is even more egregious in nature.
Witchcraft cases can be big or small.
If the emperor seizes this kind of case and starts to make a fuss about it, it might set off a storm.
Even if it is not the emperor's instruction, as long as he shows concern about witchcraft, the people below will make troubles and mess with others in order to please the emperor.
In the end, everyone may be in danger and no one will have a peaceful life.
The primary purpose of Yang Tinghe and others now is to suppress this case as much as possible and not let it continue to ferment and expand, so as not to get out of hand.
The second is to save the lives and fortunes of the Zhang brothers.
The ministers did not like these domineering brothers, but if they were to be dealt with, they should be dealt with within the framework of the court's normal judicial system, and they should not be decapitated by using witchcraft.
Some ministers are already discussing secretly that if the emperor kills with slippery hands, Tao Zhongwen first came under pressure.
Some officials began to accuse him of being a monster, and uncovered some of his past misdeeds, including his background and his experience of cheating in the local area before he became successful.
Trying to prove that he is just a charlatan who hangs out in the palace to prevent his tricks from seducing the emperor, so he should be executed.
Yang Tinghe had something more important in his hands, including the fact that he deceived the emperor, enriched his own pockets, and made money from various heaven-sacrifice affairs.
If it were revealed, it would be really troublesome.
Someone also came to Yang Chengzu's side and brought some evidence of the Wenxiang Sect's transactions with the Mongols in the northwest.
Since the Renwu Incident, Yang Chengzu signed a peace treaty with the Mongols with the emperor's secret decree, and his assistance to the Luo Feihong tribe has never stopped in the past two years.
Song Guoen's betrayal also had a lot to do with this matter.
The business is so big that it is difficult to keep it secret.
It is not too difficult for Yang Tinghe to collect evidence.
Since the imperial decree was not signed by the cabinet, it was not recognized at the official level.
This kind of transaction would still be regarded as a treasonous act of collaborating with the enemy.
In particular, the materials for sale included contraband items such as matchlocks and iron armor.
There was a famine in Mongolia last year.
Yang Ji sold a batch of grain to Luo Feihong at a critical moment, which not only helped her tribe survive the famine, but also allowed her to borrow money.
The machine gathered a lot of strength and gained momentum.
Throwing these things to the court is enough to confiscate the family and exterminate the family.
In addition to these, there is also sufficient information about Guo Xun's trading of supplies with the Mongols during his military training in Shanxi, his embezzlement of food and wages, and his sending troops to kill the landowners to help Yang Ji recover the land.
The purpose of sending the materials is also very clear.
The chief assistant asked someone to bring a message to the governor: stop when you have to, and be merciful when you have to.
Neither Yang Chengzu nor Tao Zhongwen concealed these situations and reported them to Jiajing.
They were both important ministers and confidants of the emperor.
Because of this, they did not move close to each other in public.
In private, there were financial transactions or secret meetings.
Tao Zhongwen needs Jinyiwei to help him uncover some secrets, and he also needs to learn some deception from Yang Chengzu to use as a magical power.
Yang Chengzu needs to create a god, and then let the god speak good words to him, so that everyone can get what they need.
In front of Jiajing, the relationship between the two of them was normal, not alienated, but not too close.
After reporting the situation, Yang Chengzu smiled and said: "They brought out so many things, which proves that they are really panicked.
It seems that Yang Xindu is so This time, he really wanted to save the two uncles, which is really ridiculous.
At the beginning, he had tried to impeach the two of them for committing crimes.
Now that there is evidence and everything, they can be beheaded, but he wants to speak out. " Jiajing had a sullen face, "They are not on the side of those two people, they just like to contradict me.
I understand very well what they think.
I cannot have the final say in promotion of rewards, killings and punishments.
They hope to make me a leader."
Song Renzong back then, it's a pity that I will not go as they want.
I already know these things, Tao Shenxian, just don't worry, no matter what evidence they produce.

It will not make me alienate you.
Not only that, this time you kowtow to eliminate the evil and save the queen from the disaster.
I have not issued a reward in a while, and I will give you a ministerial letter.
Title, Yin Yizi is the Shaoqing of Shangbaosi.
You can just practice Taoism without worrying about anything else.
I will ask you to do more when we offer sacrifices to heaven next year.
Don’t take these bastard words to heart. " Tao Zhongwen himself has children.
The previous reward was limited to himself, but this time it was extended to his son.
Naturally, he felt grateful.
After he kowtowed and left, Jiajing waved his hand, and Zhang Zuo also stepped out knowingly.
Without the outsiders, Jiajing's expression was not as firm as before, and his tone was a bit more unwilling.
"Yesterday, my father-in-law came into the palace and had a talk with me.
His intention was that I should step back, otherwise the ministers would contact the six ministers and ask for it collectively.
Brother, how far should we step back this time?
Keep these people satisfied” He knew in his heart that if Yang Tinghe and others stood up so firmly this time, even if the emperor insisted, it would be impossible to execute all the Zhang brothers.
At least the current emperor is not ready for a full-scale war with the courtiers.
Once the ministers resign collectively, he will have no choice but to give in.
Yang Tinghe was relatively smart and did not use such drastic measures at the beginning.
He just used these things to send a signal, hoping that the emperor would understand the cabinet's position, compromise with each other, and achieve a win-win situation.
When Jiajing first entered the capital, he didn't care much about concessions and compromises.
Anyway, he had nothing, and a small step forward would be beneficial.
But now that he has military power in his hands, the existence of Yang Ji has also greatly increased the royal family's income, and the control over grassroots and local governments has gradually increased.
Yang Chengzu's factory guards became increasingly active, and the movements of some ministers could always be sent to his desk in secret documents.
Under such circumstances, he would inevitably feel that he was invincible, and he would not be happy if he was asked to retreat at this time.
Yang Chengzu comforted him with a smile: "Your Majesty, don't worry, we don't have to retreat too much this time.
In any case, these crimes are obvious.
Apart from the witchcraft we framed, those things like harboring illegals and recruiting people are always It's not false.
If this kind of thing is done a little more seriously, those ministers can still have their homes confiscated.
Li also knows that he is unreasonable, and now he is trying his best to be unreasonable and only talk about his feelings.
Fortunately, we are not without people.
Those account books allow us to control a group of ministers, and these people can stand up.
Waving flags and shouting for us.
Yan Song is writing a memorial at home, asking the Zhang brothers to be punished and the country's law to be rectified. " He pointed to the confession at the head of the Jiajing case: "Brothers Zhang, you can kill one and keep the other to give the ministers face.
They will just accept it as they wish.
They don't want to cause too much trouble for these two guys."
Yes.
Don’t put the one you keep, keep it in jail and process it slowly.
As long as Empress Dowager Zhang survives for one day, let her know.
How her brother was tortured is also very interesting.
As for the ministers, it’s okay for us to take a step back this time.
We have too many surprises for them.
We are playing with them slowly, like the reconstruction of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Once it's done, after killing the Zhang family, let's release the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Everyone, take your time. ian:
