Li Sancai was escorted over at this time.He only glanced at these officials who had been kneeling down for a large group, and then pursed his lips, revealing a little shame.Zhu Youxiao asked Li Sancai at this time: "Li Sancai, did Dongchang torture you to extract a confession?"
”"Nope."
Li Sancai pondered for a moment, and finally replied honestly.Then, Zhu Youxiao asked again: "Can Dongchang torture you?"
”Li Sancai also replied: "No!
”"Huang Kezhang, the secretary of the Criminal Department, Cao Yubian, the imperial historian of the Zuodu, and Wei Fan, the Qing of Dali Temple, you all go up and take a look, take a look for me and the hundred officials, and see if Li Sancai is injured, but he has been forced to interrogate by Dongchang."
Zhu Youxiao said at this time.The three legal divisions are the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Criminal Department, and the Dali Temple.These three organs are the three highest judicial organs of the central court of the Ming Dynasty.In large cases, in order to show fairness, many times will be required to be tried by the three legal divisions.And now Zhu Youxiao also asked the top officials of the three yamen to come forward to confirm whether Li Sancai had tortured to extract a confession.The three of them came to Li Sancai by order.Then, all three's eyes widened.Because they found that Li Sancai really didn't have the slightest scar on his body.Wei Fan couldn't help but glance at the crotch of Li Sancai's pants for a while.In the end, Huang Kezhang, the secretary of the Criminal Department, said first: "Your Majesty!
Li Sancai was indeed not tortured by Dongchang to extract a confession. ”Cao Yubian, the imperial historian of the left capital, also had to give up his hand and said: "Your Majesty, Li Sancai was indeed not tortured by Dongchang to extract a confession. ”Wei Fan, the secretary of Dali Temple, also said: "Your Majesty, the minister has not found out that Li San has been tortured to extract a confession. ”Zhu Youxiao nodded because of this and asked Li Sancai: "Li Sancai, tell me and the ministers about what you have committed, and you must not hide anything!"
Jin Yiwei recounted it for him, so that the hundred officials could hear it. ”"Yes!"
Li Sancai replied.So, Li Sancai said in front of Zhu Youxiao and all the military officials in the court: "As early as when I learned that Da Sima was going to train the emperor, I arranged for someone to prepare to do something to his mother, in order to let Da Sima Ding worry about returning to his hometown, so that the emperor could not train soldiers, and later learned that Da Sima's family was rich, he was even more jealous of the power of the Xu family, and urged my disciple Xu Shilin to do so, and spread the news to the princes of the court, so that the princes of the court mistakenly thought that Xu Guangqi concealed the death of his mother, but I didn't expect my conspiracy to be revealed.
The fine work I sent to poison the mother of Da Sima was discovered by Dongchang long ago, and it is only now that I know that my conspiracy has been exposed, and it is only now that I know that I have caused so much trouble to the imperial court, and I am guilty!
”When the ministers heard this, they were very shocked.They didn't expect Li San to really take the initiative to admit his guilt without being tortured.Han Yi, the second assistant of the cabinet, was once again glad that he was not in a hurry to stand up and intercede for Li Sancai.But because of this, he had already guessed that if this continued, the Donglin Party forces would be hit even harder, and he was eager to start distancing himself from Donglin, so he hurriedly stood up first, pointed at Li Sancai and asked: "Li Sancai, why are you so despicable!"
”Of course, what Han Yi wanted to ask in his heart was: Why did you Li Sancai admit such a sin, how can you admit this kind of thing by yourself, how can we save you?"
Truly appalling!
Great rebellion!
Shameless!
”Some officials also scolded.Fang Congzhe just glanced at Han Yi steadily.Zhu Youxiao only smiled slightly.And the left capital imperial history Cao Yu Bian, Dali Temple Wei Fan, Wang Zhiyin and others were silent at this time.They don't know what to say now.Like Han Yi and others, let's fall into the trap for Li Sancai.Obviously inappropriate.No one knows if Li Sancai is forced to be anxious like this, and whether his people will expose the sins of these people in the future.Let's intercede for Li Sancai.Even more inappropriate!
Now that Li Sancai has confessed his guilt, pleading for mercy is of no benefit except for causing trouble.Therefore, now these people don't know what to say, but they also hate Li Sancai very much in their hearts, how can they be so cowardly, and actually admit everything they have done.Zhu Youxiao continued to ask about Li Sancai at this time: "Say, you still committed those crimes." ”Li Sancai continued to answer: "I secretly swallowed the golden silk nanmu when I was the governor of Caoyun, transported it home to build my own private house, and embezzled more than 7 million taels of silver, which was also taken out to point out a lot of ministers of the DPRK and China, the original intention was to let them push me into the cabinet from the outside, and I was about to succeed, but I was blocked by political enemies, and was demoted to a civilian, but in order to be reinstated in the future, and let some ministers of the DPRK and China still support me, I also hid the handle of the hundred officials that I had mastered during my official period in the secret room of my home. ”Many officials present were panicked after hearing this, they didn't expect Li Sancai to even admit these things."
Huang Aiqing, the crime committed by Li Sancai, according to the law of the Ming Dynasty, how to judge it, you are the secretary of the Criminal Department, you can talk about it."
Zhu Youxiao asked.Huang Kezhang is a non-Donglin official, so he has nothing to do with Li Sancai, so he replied truthfully: "Back to Your Majesty, according to the law of the Ming Dynasty, murdering the family of an important minister and being the wife of the emperor, and murdering the court official, should be executed!"
And the embezzlement of golden silk nanmu belongs to the encroachment of the system, complicity and rebellion, when the door is full of beheading, embezzlement of more than 7 million silver, belongs to the felony of greedy ink, when peeling the skin of the grass, with his family property, several crimes are punished, even if his trespass has been amnesty by the temple and dismissed, but his murder of the court and greed for ink should also be sentenced, so he should be beheaded, and his home should be copied. ”"What Aiqing said is wrong, Li Sancai is only murdering on the surface, but he personally admitted that he wanted to obstruct my military training, this is plotting against the nine clans!
What's more, he was already very ambitious, and he dared to use golden silk nanmu, which was obviously not in his eyes!
But I still think that he is honest, and he takes the initiative to confess his crimes, and he should be punished as an adult in the three clans!
To set an example, to tell the world, whoever trespasses the rules again, will not be tolerated!
”Zhu Youzhen said."
Obey the order!"
Huang Kezhang replied.In his opinion, the temple's treatment of Li Sancai was too light back then, and now His Majesty is a little heavier, but in any case, this kind of thing can be said to be heavy or light, after all, no one knows whether the person concerned only wants to pursue luxury and forgets the royal law or really has the ambition to be the emperor.And Huang Kezhang naturally didn't anger the emperor for Li Sancai, so he responded.Next, Zhu Youxiao began to announce the disposition of Zhou Shunchang, Lian Guoshi, Zuo Guangdou and others."
Zhou Shunchang and Lian Guoshi and others have clearly received the approval of the holy decree, but they still breed troubles, besiege the courtiers, and gather people to make trouble.Zuo Guangdou listened to the rumors and spread them without authorization, lest the world be chaotic, dismissed for the people, and exiled to Suzhou!
After Zhu Youxiao said, Qian Chun, the young secretary of Guanglu Temple, stood up first: "Your Majesty!
Although Li Sancai's crime is extremely evil, he is also an important minister of the former dynasty, since ancient times, Renjun has followed the righteousness of not punishing doctors, and I also ask Your Majesty to be benevolent, forgive Li Sancai's capital crime, and spare Zhou Lian and others for capital crimes!
Although they are rebellious and unknown, they are also out of the maintenance of human ethics and filial piety!
Your Majesty, please be wise!
”Qian Chun and the others had to intercede for Li Sancai and others, because once Li Sancai was really confiscated, then the responsibility for the crimes committed by these people would fall into the hands of the emperor."
Presumptuous!
You are not an official of the Three Law Divisions, what qualifications do you have to comment on this matter, and it is not your turn to teach me how to govern the country!
I see that you are also immaculate, and there is no king in your eyes!
Drag it down, the rod will be killed!
”Zhu Youxiao commanded with a serious face.Qian Chun was greatly stunned, seeing that Jinyi Wei had already gone to the palace, he hurriedly shouted: "Your Majesty!
The minister is a heartfelt word, you will do this will harm my Daming Sheji!
Please don't treat the scholars like this, Your Majesty!
Otherwise, my Daming Society will be in danger!
”Zhu Youxiao didn't listen, only ordered: "Retreat!"
”Seeing this, the other officials dared to say more, and they were silent.
