Chapter 1028 Conviction


Chapter 1028 Conviction

"'Unexpectedly, the emperor is smart and decisive, but he is willing to be deceived. He does not believe what others say, and does not realize it even though God warns him, so that he is like this.' Yang Jisheng, is this sentence in your memorial? What did you say? "

He Ao threw the copy of the memorial to Yang Jisheng, silently recited a line from Yang Jisheng's memorial, and asked in a stern voice.

"I said this to remind you," Yang Jisheng defended.

"Yang Jisheng, what do you answer when I ask you something? You only need to answer, yes or no?"

He Ao interrupted Yang Jisheng's defense and shouted loudly.

“Yes!”

Yang Jisheng raised his head and looked directly at He Ao, with the veins on his neck clearly visible.

"'Your Majesty is smart and decisive. Although Ni Luan is aware of all the hidden evils, he has always tolerated Song's evil deeds.' Yang Jisheng, is this what you said in your memorial?" He Ao recited silently again. He read a sentence in Yang Jisheng's memorial and questioned Yang Jisheng again.

“You took it out of context,” Yang Jisheng said angrily.

"I'm asking you, yes or no?!" He Ao interrupted Yang Jisheng again and asked sternly.

“That’s what I said!”

The veins on Yang Jisheng’s neck became thicker.

"'However, I don’t know that there are weeds in the country, weeds in the seedlings, and tigers in the city. One day in power will be a day of harm. Why can’t the emperor bear to cut off his love for a traitor and endure the ruin of millions of people? Huh.'Yang Jisheng, is this what you said in your memorial?"

He Ao? He pointed out all the points that could be criticized in Yang Jisheng's memorials out of context. As long as Yang Jisheng answered yes or no, He Ao would interrupt Yang Jisheng's defense and could only answer "yes" because He Ao The things he pointed out were indeed what he wrote in his memorials.

When Zhu Ping'an saw this, he understood what He Ao wanted to do. He couldn't help but clenched his fists and sighed helplessly in his heart

What He Ao did was just "creating" evidence for conviction! We are not fools. We can see it ourselves, and I believe many people can also see it.

However, this is an unfair and unfair court trial!

The court trial officials here are basically strict people. They will judge the case based on the evidence. As for whether the evidence was "created", they will turn a blind eye.

And I am just a spectator!

have no choice!

Powerless!

In the end it was a sigh.

Zhu Ping'an could only watch this court trial helplessly and powerlessly, moving further and further away from the strict party, and finally gone forever, until it was time to close the case.

After the court trial, the case must be closed, and written materials must be submitted to Xiyuan to be presented to Emperor Jiajing for his inspection.

"My lords, this case has been tried. Let's come to an agreement and see how this case should be finalized." As the presiding judge, He Ao, after the trial came to an end, looked around and asked about the presiding judge and the second judge. The judges present at the table said.

"Well, what He Shangshu said is true."

Three Law Division and other officials involved in the trial nodded one after another, and stood up to express their conclusions.

"What is there to discuss? Yang Jisheng falsely conveyed the prince's order and deceived the emperor. The evidence is conclusive. He should be convicted of the crime of falsely conveying the prince's order and deceiving the emperor. He should be punished for both crimes. He will be hanged to thank the world!"

As a loyal member of the Strict Party, Wang Xueyi, the Minister of Punishment, was the first to speak, and he couldn't wait to convict Yang Jisheng of two capital crimes.

Although this court trial failed to interrogate Yang Jisheng's accomplices and bring Prince Yu into trouble, there is no rush. As long as Yang Jisheng's charges are confirmed, his accomplices and so on will not be too late to be interrogated slowly. Moreover, Mr. Yan explained The bottom line is to convict Yang Jisheng of falsely conveying the prince's decree.

That’s why Wang Xueyi jumped out so eagerly.

“I agree with what Mr. Wang said. Yang Jisheng did not get the consent of the two princes, but he said in the memorial that he might ask the two princes. Isn’t this a false statement about the prince’s decree?! Also, Yang Jisheng mentioned it several times in the memorial. Criticizing Your Majesty, this is not deceiving the emperor and neglecting his superiors, so what is it? ? ! Therefore, I agree with Master Wang that Yang Jisheng’s memorial still commits the crime of deceiving the emperor and falsely transmitting the prince’s decree. According to the Ming Dynasty, he should be punished!”

Wang Xueyi said! Later, an official who participated in the court trial spoke up and agreed.

“I think Yang Jisheng is also guilty of falsely accusing the superior! He should be punished together with the crime of deceiving the emperor and neglecting the superior and falsely transmitting the prince’s decree!”

Then another official went a step further and put the crime of framed Shangguan on Yang Jisheng.

"Well, well, what Mr. Zhang said is true. I ignored this crime."

Hearing this, Wang Xueyi nodded vigorously and looked at the official who spoke. Smiles all over his face.

Several officials then expressed their opinions to him, and all came to the same conclusion.

However, there are still different voices.

Although there are many Yan Party members, not all officials who participated in court trials are Yan Party members. It is impossible for the Yan Party’s power to cover every official. If this were the case, the Yan Party would have been destroyed ten times by Emperor Jiajing. Jiajing The emperor was an extremely stingy man about power, and he only tolerated Yan Song within the scope of his permission; secondly, in order to avoid suspicion, all officials participating in the court trial could not be Yan Party members.

"In my opinion, the crime of Yang Jisheng's misrepresentation of the prince's decree is conclusive; as for deceiving the emperor and neglecting his superiors, in my opinion, Yang Jisheng is not guilty."

An official hesitated. After a moment, he slowly spoke.

As soon as the official spoke, Wang Xueyi glared at him angrily, "Why not? Yang Jisheng even admitted that he wrote it! Mr. Liu, you also have ears, didn't you hear it? ?”
< br>Speaking, Wang Xueyi stared at the official with a sinister look, and opened his white teeth, "Mr. Liu, I heard that you have sang with Yang Jisheng's poems many times. Haha, you can't be Yang Jisheng's accomplice." Right? ”

"How could that be? Mr. Wang, please don't slander anyone!" The official who was stared at by Wang Xueyi immediately raised his neck and retorted. If this basin of dirty water was poured on him by Wang Xueyi, he would not be able to wash it off even if he jumped into the Yellow River.

Wang Xueyi sneered, hum, if you hadn’t just said that Yang Jisheng was guilty of falsely communicating the prince’s decree, if you hadn’t wanted to convict Yang Jisheng of a death penalty as soon as possible and didn’t want to cause trouble, otherwise you would have detained one of Yang Jisheng’s associates. hat.

Just in time, there was an official advising him, and Wang Xueyi took another look at the official before moving away.

Other officials expressed their opinions one after another, and most of them were similar. They were guilty of two or three crimes, but they were all guilty of misrepresenting the prince's order.

“In response, what do you think as the secretary?”

He Ao turned his gaze to Shi Chaobin, the last doctor in the Ministry of Justice who had not expressed his opinion, and asked slowly.

Everyone's eyes also turned to Shi Chaobin, especially Wang Xueyi, whose eyes were even more scorching and threatening.

Shi Chaobin is not a strict party.

However, Wang Xueyi was not worried that something would happen to him, because Shi Chaobin compromised when Yang Jisheng was tortured at the court trial. (End of this chapter)
