Chongzhen Wiretapping System

Chapter 194 The Crime of Bullying the King

Why did you change the people around you and recruit a group of bullied eunuchs from the inner book hall as personal servants?

Why rectify the inner palace, abolish the personnel, and at the same time use Cheng Guogong to conspire against the eunuchs and maids who have connections outside the palace?
Why do you want to attack the Yumajian, be kind to the king's army, and reorganize it into three major battalions?

Why should the big Han generals be replaced by disabled King Qin soldiers to guard the palace?

……

All of this is for Emperor Chongzhen to have enough strength to challenge the crowd when facing mass incidents, even if it is the so-called situation that the law does not blame the public, he has enough confidence to deal with it.

But now, the expected law that does not blame the public has finally appeared.

In this regard, Emperor Chongzhen was not polite and took immediate action.

First of all, he gave an answer to those who questioned the case of rebellion: Yongwei Battalion and Hussar Battalion were there to capture the main force of the rebellion.If anyone dares to guarantee that the grain merchants, censors or Yang Sichang arrested now have nothing to do with them, he can let them go.But when the Yongwei camp and the Hussar camp come back and the evidence is made public, proving that these grain merchants, censors or Yang Sichang were involved, then the guarantor will be guilty of the same crime!

As soon as this answer came out, all the people who cried out for those who were arrested before and questioned the emperor suddenly became dumb one by one.Some of the memorials had just been published, and they guessed that they had not yet reached the emperor's hands. One by one, they rushed to the Secretary of General Administration, begging to take the memorial back.

Who can have the guts to ensure that these arrested people really did not participate in the conspiracy?Even if they are brothers, they would not dare to take such a big risk to guarantee, let alone such a group of officials with ulterior motives!
Immediately afterwards, Emperor Chongzhen sent a large group of Dongchang Fanzi out of the Forbidden City in great momentum.

Seeing this situation, many people were immediately frightened again.

In the night just passed, Tiqi went out everywhere and already arrested many people. Why did so many Dongchang gangsters come out again? Could it be that they went to arrest people again?

Almost everyone who saw so many Dongchang Fanzi dispatched was terrified.However, at the same time, they were also a little puzzled.

Because in the queue of Dongchang fans, there were many fans carrying plaques, which were very conspicuous, with golden fonts and the words "The Pillar of the Country" written on them.Anyone with some experience should be able to tell by looking at this posture that it might be the emperor's personal inscription.What is even more surprising is that there are several such plaques.

Dongchang fanzi is carrying such a plaque, what's going on?Isn't the person in the lead the recently proud Admiral Cao Huachun?But why is he so tense, it doesn't look like the expression of giving this kind of plaque!

Also, there are three imperial doctors following the plaque.

What's going on with this imperial doctor mixed in with the Dongchang fans?

If it hadn't happened yesterday, if it hadn't been for Cao Huachun's face that wanted to eat people, maybe everyone who saw this situation would think that the emperor would send an imperial doctor to treat the important ministers of the court, and send a piece of " Plaque of "Pillar of the Country"!
The more strange it is, the more itchy in the heart, so many people follow behind to watch the excitement regardless of the reputation of Dongchang.

Without much effort, they discovered that Cao Huachun led Dongchang fanzi to the residence of Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Tian Weijia.Immediately, they couldn't help talking about it.

"By the way, I heard that Tian Tianguan wrote a letter saying that he was sick in the mansion and did not go to court. The emperor sent an imperial doctor to treat him. It's really in the heart of the emperor!"

"No, you see, he also carries a plaque with the title of "The Pillar of the Country". This holy favor is really like no one else!"

"It would be great if the factory owner didn't send it over. I always feel that something is wrong!"

"Look, there are still several plaques. I don't know where to send them?"

"Look at this posture, think about it, who else is sick and has not gone to court?"

"There are so many people who didn't go to court today, shouldn't they, they also have a share of my master? No, I have to go back and report to the master, maybe I can get some rewards later!"

"..."

Just talking like this, many people ran away and rushed back to report.

At the gate of Tian Weijia's mansion, the concierge heard the movement and had already come out to check the situation.

When he saw a large number of factory guards approaching for the first time, his legs were so frightened that his legs went limp.But fortunately, he saw the conspicuous plaque later, and his mind was instantly settled.

"Go and tell Shangshu Tian that the factory owner has ordered an imperial doctor to treat him!" a Dongchang fan yelled at the concierge.

When he heard this, he had already seen several imperial doctors behind the plaque.

Immediately, the concierge was happy, and quickly agreed, then turned around and ran away immediately, shouting while running.

At this time, Tian Weijia was drinking dull wine, thinking about this sudden change.

He is qualified to see the emperor often, after all, he is the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and he is honored as a heavenly official.

In the past few months, the emperor seemed to have suddenly changed into a different person, which made him no longer feel familiar, and he was always a little uneasy.

This time, he was even more nervous when he heard that the factory guards were arresting officials in the capital, many of whom were well-known corrupt officials.With a guilty conscience, he didn't dare to go to court, so he said he was sick at home.Under his suggestion, many people in the official office even pretended to be sick.The officials' yamen has almost come to a standstill.

"I hope this will make the emperor feel apprehensive!" Thinking of this, Tian Weijia said to himself.

Of course he also knew that he was not the only yamen that had almost stopped functioning.If other yamen hadn't followed suit, he wouldn't be the one who stood out.Now everyone has done this. In this era, everyone understands that the law does not punish everyone, so they are not afraid of it.

After taking a sip of wine and a bite of food, he began to think again.

Today's emperor's behavior is really too unpredictable. If one is not good, it will be a big trouble if the boat capsizes.

Thinking of this, he immediately thought of someone.All the officials and departments gave Wu Linzheng in the matter!

This person was so ignorant that the money given to him was returned intact.He doesn't know, what are the consequences of being so unsocial?

I heard that he is still secretly investigating himself, hehe, really think he can bring down the chief official of the yamen, the official minister?
Thinking of this, he drank another glass of dull wine, suppressed the anger in his heart, and became a little worried again: at this moment, if he really poked it out, would it be a little dangerous?If he had known this earlier, he should have found a way to deal with him beforehand.

Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard someone running quickly from outside, and at the same time shouted in a surprised voice: "Master, Master, the emperor sent an imperial doctor to see you..."

Hearing this, the wine glass that Tian Weijia had just picked up fell back to the table, his face obviously a little panicked.

The emperor sent an imperial doctor to see him?What does it mean?
"...Sir, there is also a plaque, the pillar of the country. The emperor also sent someone a plaque of the pillar of the country..."

While speaking, the visitor had already arrived at the door, and he didn't dare to enter, so he stood at the door and said panting.

Hearing this, Tian Weijia's thoughts immediately changed again.

The memorial said that he could not go to court due to illness, and the emperor sent an imperial doctor to visit, and by the way, he also sent a plaque of "The Pillar of the Country". No matter how you think about it, this is a good thing!

Such a thing is not without precedent.Generally, if the ministers who are valued by the emperor are sick and cannot go to court, the emperor will send an imperial doctor to show his concern for the ministers.

Thinking of this, Tian Weijia was very happy. He never thought that he was so important in the emperor's mind!
Thinking of this, he immediately said excitedly: "Quick, please hurry up!"

After finishing speaking, he immediately shouted: "Hurry up and get some tea!"

As for whether it is really sick, generally speaking, who would take it seriously?

I'm getting old, and I'm a little bit weak, anyway, excuses are everywhere.A little imperial doctor, dare to talk nonsense?

So, he quickly rinsed his mouth with tea to reduce the smell of wine as much as possible, then lay down in the bedroom, waiting for a while, and reluctantly got up to thank the emperor for his kindness.

However, he didn't expect that after a while, there were a lot of footsteps.Listening to this voice, the number of people is a bit beyond expectation!

The butler pushed open the door first, then stepped aside and said, "Master is in the room, please come from the factory!"

Factory owner?When Tian Weijia heard this, he was a little surprised, and his mind was even slightly stunned. Is it Cao Huachun?What is he here for?
Just as he was thinking, the expressionless Cao Huachun had already walked into the room. Behind him, there were three imperial doctors.

Seeing this, Tian Weijia was dumbfounded.Why did the admiral of the East Factory come over, and three imperial doctors at one time?
This is not the case!

Before he had time to speak, he saw Cao Huachun's nose twitch, and then said coldly: "Come on, consult Tian Weijia, Minister of the Ministry of Officials."

The three imperial doctors listened, bowed to Cao Huachun, and then walked to the bedside.

At this time, no matter how misunderstood Tian Weijia was, he still could not fail to see that this seemed to be a bad person!
As a result, he became worried, and quickly said: "Your majesty is concerned, I just got a little ailment occasionally, it's nothing serious, it's nothing serious..."

However, the three imperial doctors had already received the order in advance, and they didn't care what he said. The first one grabbed his hand and wanted to make a diagnosis.

When Tian Weijia saw it, he wanted to struggle, but at this moment, he heard Cao Huachun yelling sadly: "Why, does Tian Guan want our family to send someone to help the imperial doctor?"

At this moment, Tian Weijia could be very clear that Cao Huachun was full of malice, and suddenly, his heart went cold.

Isn't it the "pillars of the country" that you said?why?

He didn't believe that his servant would lie, that is to say, there must be a plaque of "Pillar of the Country"!

Just as he was thinking, the first imperial doctor had already made a diagnosis.

Tian Weijia wanted to struggle several times, but when he saw Cao Huachun looking at him coldly, he finally gave up.I can only pray in my heart that there should be something wrong with my body, and it will be fine!
After the first imperial doctor finished reading, he stepped aside and started writing.

The second imperial doctor came forward, made a diagnosis, and then went to the other side to write something.

……

After the three imperial doctors finished their diagnosis, Tian Weijia looked a little unhappy, and lay on the bed, looked at Cao Huachun and asked, "Mr. Factory, what is the meaning of this? The emperor asked you to treat me like this?"

Cao Huachun ignored him and took the paper presented to him by the first imperial doctor.Just after reading it, the second imperial doctor had also finished writing it and presented it to him, as well as the third imperial doctor.

After reading the three-point medical certificate in hand, there are also three signatures of imperial physicians.Cao Huachun raised his head, smiled sadly at Tian Weijia and said, "It seems that Tian Tianguan can't get the plaque bestowed by the emperor, what a pity!"

When Tian Weijia heard it, he couldn't help but feel very sorry. It should be because he was not seriously ill, so he missed the plaque?
However, at this moment, Cao Huachun suddenly yelled coldly: "Tian Weijia was corrupt and broke the law. He was afraid of being held accountable and encouraged other officials. , to blackmail the emperor, the crime deserves death, beheaded!"

Hearing this, immediately, several fans behind him rushed over, grabbed Tian Weijia from the bed on the spot, and dragged him away.

Tian Weijia was so frightened that she struggled out of her wits and shouted loudly: "You are spitting blood, I want to see the emperor, I want to see the emperor, I am wronged, I am wronged..."

"Hehe, how dare you say you were wronged!" Cao Huachun sneered after hearing this, "All the officials gave Wu Linzheng's impeachment memorial, the evidence is convincing..."

Hearing this, Tian Weijia couldn't help but feel great hatred in his heart, why didn't he attack him earlier!
In the original history, his position as Minister of the Ministry of Officials was also impeached by Wu Linzheng.Based on the knowledge of Emperor Chongzhen in the original history, this dignified Minister of the Ministry of Officials could be brought down by Wu Linzheng's impeachment, which shows that the evidence is conclusive.

In fact, in the last years of the Ming Dynasty, the reason why buying and selling officials was so popular was that the Ministry of Officials couldn't get around it, and how could the Minister of the Ministry of Officials escape!
"He's talking nonsense, he's framed..." Tian Weijia was naturally unwilling to bow his head and plead guilty, and shouted desperately.

After hearing this, Cao Huachun sneered and said, "It's really nice to drink at home when you're sick. The diagnosis of the three imperial doctors shows that your health is very good, it's just that you have a little more wine. Now that the Ming Dynasty is troubled, everything You are busy, and everything is waiting to be done, but you still pretend to be sick to deceive the emperor, just this crime of deceiving the emperor is enough to cut off your head, and hang it on the Zhengyang Gate!"

The crime of deceiving the emperor, which means the crime of deceiving the emperor, is not specific and is a category of crimes.This crime can be big or small, it all depends on how the emperor decides.

Just a few months ago, a head was hung on the Zhengyang Gate. The crime was the crime of deceiving the emperor. The unlucky person who was beheaded was Liu Yuliang, the former chief minister of the Ming Dynasty.

Thinking of this, Tian Weijia couldn't help being so frightened that he didn't even have the strength to struggle, just like a deflated ball.

Seeing him being dragged away, Cao Huachun ordered indifferently: "Chasing the house!"

At the gate of Tian Mansion, a large group of people, including those who came after hearing the news, were here to watch the excitement.While still discussing, I don't know where the next plaque will be sent?
But at this moment, suddenly, a group of Dongchang fans came out from the Tianfu again, dragged a person, and stopped at the gate of the mansion.

Someone with sharp eyes recognized it immediately and couldn't help being surprised and said: "Hey, isn't that Tian Guan? Why was he dragged out?"
