In the capital, the news of Wang Xian's defeat is already well known The common people were all like they had lost their souls, and they never imagined that when the overall situation had been decided, the situation would take a sharp turn for the worse, and the army of the imperial court would be wiped out The prince of Zhenguo, who had become the new patron saint in the hearts of the people, was defeated like this, and lost all the troops of the imperial court This defeat was too heavy a blow to the people of the Ming Dynasty. otbnkotgt Everyone understands that the imperial court is temporarily powerless to fight against the Mongols, the Tatars will annex the Hetao, and the Central Plains will be looked at from then on, the Xuanda Great Wall has become the front line, Juyong Pass may be stepped on by the Mongol iron cavalry at any time, and the day when the soldiers will come to the city seems to be just around the corner Faced with such a dangerous situation, the common people's dissatisfaction with the imperial court is increasing day by day.
In the streets and alleys, there are voices scolding the court for being useless, and one generation is not as good as the next.
Soon, under the guidance of some people, the common people gradually focused on the uncertain life and death of Zhenguo Gong, thinking that if he didn't see it and ignore the enemy, Daming would not have suffered such a fiasco This is really like water in the hearts of the people, and the people are like smoke, Wang Xian fell from a national hero to a national sinner, and only needed a big defeat Under the domination of this sentiment, the common people had almost no objection to the imperial court's move to abolish Wang Xian's title and investigate the king's party elements, and there was even no lack of applause.
In order to investigate and prosecute the Wang party elements, Zhu Zhanji ordered Hu Hao to rebuild the East Factory, with only one task, to arrest anyone outside Shandong who was related to Wang Xian.
Within a few days, tens of thousands of people were imprisoned, and the re-employed Dongchang Fanzi hated Wang Xian, who had made them unemployed, naturally wanted to entertain his pro-party.
In Dongchang Imperial Prison, the fans tortured day and night, forcing Wang Xian to confess his illegal deception.
Under torture, what kind of confession could not be asked In just a few days, the charges sorted out by Dongchang have accumulated to a height of several feet, and there are thousands of crimes On this day, Hu Hao was carefully screening Wang Xian's crimes, hoping to find out some serious crimes that violated the rules of heaven, so that he could present them to His Royal Highness the Prince.
But what made him extremely depressed was that more than 900 of the 1,000 charges were for stealing neighbors' pants when he was a child, molesting women in his teens, and spitting in his twenties.
In the remaining dozens of articles, there are some shocking charges, such as rebellion, bribery, murder, forming a party, etc., but if you look closely, those confessions themselves are ridiculous and boundless, so that no one will believe it if they listen to it, for example, a guy who has been under Wang Xian's account for several years and has been a hundred households, confessed that Wang Xian had looked for him and wanted to pull himself into a gang and rebel together.
With the identity of Wang Xiangui and his minister, even if he rebelled, he had to be at least second-grade or above, and the earl jumped, how could he discuss it with a small hundred households Similar mistakes abound, which can be described as absurd This is not to say that Wang Xian is really innocent, on the contrary, the things he has done are enough to copy his nine clans a hundred times.
But those things, both openly and secretly, are all implicated in Jinshang, and even the prince, even those prisoners dare to say it, and Dongchang Fanzi doesn't dare to remember it In the past three years, Wang Xian has acted cautiously and honestly, and he has no authority at all.
That's what makes us in the situation we are in Hu Qi was worried, and suddenly heard a report from his subordinates, saying that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had arrived.
Hu Hao hurriedly put down the work at hand and wanted to go out to welcome the Lord. saw that Zhu Zhanji, who was dressed in civilian clothes, had already arrived at the door of the signing room.
Hu Hao hurriedly paid a big salute and respectfully invited His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to enter.
"What are you busy with" Zhu Zhanji was a little absent-minded, picked up a confession casually, and flipped it up.
"Back to His Royal Highness, the lower officials are sorting out Wang Xian's crimes."
Hu Qi replied softly.
"Oh, what's the progress" Zhu Zhanji became interested at this time.
"Not yet."
Hu Hao shook his head helplessly and said: "Although there are many confessions, most of them do not match the truth, and they can really stand up, and there are very few charges that can be taken."
"It's not just a few, it's just nothing "Hmm" Zhu Zhanji obviously expected this situation, so he was not surprised at all, and only lightly ordered: "If the crime of disobeying the order and underestimating the enemy is confirmed, it is enough to convict him."
You can make do with a few more here, so that it will look better when the time comes.
After a pause, he said: "It's really not good, you go to the Criminal Department to transfer the file of Lan Yu's case back then, and see how Lan Yu was convicted at that time, just copy a few articles." ” "Your Royal Highness is wise, open it for the ministers" Hu Hao said in his heart, you said it earlier, so I don't have to bother with it.
On his face, he said respectfully: "Your Highness took the time to come, it seems that it is not just for the purpose of instructing the ministers. ” "Hmm."
Zhu Zhanji's expression was fluttering, and his fingers tapped lightly on the table, "Take the list of prisoners and show it to Lone." ” "Yes."
Hu Hao responded, he was sorting out the file, the list of prisoners was in his hand, and he hurriedly presented a thick file to His Royal Highness the Prince.
Zhu Zhanji took it and opened it, and it was full of the names of the royal party members, as well as their official positions, years and places of origin, which were divided into categories and densely packed with columns.
According to the index, Zhu Zhanji quickly found the list of arrested officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and found the name of Yu Qian, the right imperial historian of the capital.
But Zhu Zhanji's gaze did not stay on Yu Qian's personal information, but fell directly on the family column below.
Zhu Zhanji's gaze stayed on the family column for a long time, as if he was recalling something, and a rare gentle expression appeared.
But after all, he said slowly: "Bring her to see Lonely." ” Hu Hao hurriedly took it and took a look, only to see that it was written on it that Yu Wang, the sister of Wang Xian, the former prince of Zhenguo, was twenty-four years old. 。
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince gave an order, and the people of Dongchang hurriedly took the female prisoner from the women's prison and took her to the signing room.
The female prisoner is naturally Yinling, Wang Xian placed his parents, wife, children, brother and sister-in-law in Jinan, but he couldn't control his sister and brother-in-law who were already married.
In fact, Wang Xian also advised Taiqian that staying in the capital might be implicated by himself, and it was safe to go to Shandong to be an official.
Yu Qian resolutely refused to listen, it was impossible for this loyal Taoist gentleman to leave his own king.
Yu Qian didn't leave, and Yinling naturally stayed in the capital.
As a result, Dongchang was the first to arrest the two people.
Hu Hao knew that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince definitely didn't want to be watched, so he quietly led people out and guarded the door in person.
There were only two men and women left in the signing room, and Zhu Zhanji stared closely at the woman with a cloth dress and a hairpin skirt and slightly messy sideburns, but she did not damage her beautiful face and elegant demeanor, and her heart jumped wildly.
"Silver Bell" Zhu Zhanji couldn't help but hiss, and involuntarily took two steps forward.
Looking at this woman who had made him extremely obsessed, it seemed to return to the time when he was young and frivolous.
Yinling was still as cold as water, not moving, but said indifferently: "The concubine is already married, and then call me by my maiden name, it is a loss of His Royal Highness's physique, so call me Yu Wang." ” Zhu Zhanji was stunned at that time, and then he suddenly realized that after a few years, he was no longer the hot-blooded and innocent little grandson, and she was no longer the simple and spicy little silver bell.
Hearing Yinling's self-proclaim, Zhu Zhanji was angry, raised his head and gasped for a long time, but when he lowered his head, he was full of smiles, and looked at Yinling fixedly: "You are deliberately angry with me, right" Without waiting for Yinling to answer, he nodded excitedly: "It must be like this." ” Yinling looked at the extremely unfamiliar Zhu Zhanji and shook her head helplessly.
"You are still angry with me back then, you didn't resist the pressure of the imperial grandfather, and married someone else to be the crown princess, right" Zhu Zhanji became more and more excited, three steps and two steps rushed forward, tightly grasped Yinling's shoulders, and said excitedly: "It was my fault at the time, but I also had to do it, there is no way, now it's okay, no one can stop us from being together Yinling, give me a chance to correct my mistakes."
As he spoke, his breathing involuntarily became heavy, and he hugged the silver bell tightly, "As long as you promise me, the crown princess is yours, and the future Empress Daming is also you."

"Your Highness, please respect yourself, the people's daughter is already a married woman" Yinling struggled hard, and said with anger on her face: "You are so rude to me, aren't you afraid of leaving infamy in the history books?"
"What kind of infamy, you are too naïve, Shi Chen is my royal dog, give them a guts, and don't dare to bite the master" Zhu Zhanji's beast blood was on his head, desperate to get the silver bell.
He looked at the pretty face that he was thinking about, and wanted to kiss it fiercely, but he was suddenly stunned.
I saw blood dripping down the corners of Yinling's mouth, and she wanted to bite her tongue and kill herself After all, Yinling has a status in Zhu Zhanji's heart, seeing the blood, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seemed to have been poured a basin of cold water, and it was all wiped out at once, and he hurriedly pinched her jaw to prevent her from really biting her tongue off.
"It's all a good thing that Yu Qian did, and brought you to enlightenment" After being stunned, Zhu Zhanji became full of anger, gritted his teeth and said: "Lone must let him return you to me, otherwise Lone will cut him with a thousand knives."
Yinling was pinched in her jaw, and blood continued to flow down the corners of her mouth, staining her white jade-like chin, but she only said indifferently: "My husband has nothing else, only a pair of arrogant bones, I'm afraid His Highness can't get his wish." ” Hearing Yinling praise Yu Qian, Zhu Zhanji became more and more angry and said: "No matter how hard the bones are, they can't be as hard as the torture tools."
Yinling was very determined: "You break your bones and beat people's backbone." ” "Ah, are you going to be angry with me" The tyranny in Zhu Zhanji's bones was provoked, he stared at Yinling, gritted his teeth and said: "And your brother, what about the family, do they also have arrogance":
