The husband is the future chief [infrastructure]

These few days Lin Zhao is indeed preparing to reverse the case. The few ministers he invited are used to cover up people's eyes and they will not be easily discovered. That is to say, Yun Yi sent Yun Jiu to keep an eye on the palace. The skill of concealment is high, so it has not been discovered by others.

On the [-]th day of the first lunar month, a censor from Yushitai took the lead in proposing the old case of Lieyang Army more than ten years ago.

Lin Zhao had reported this matter to the emperor in advance. At that time, the queen mother was used as a raft, which made the emperor agree to them to investigate this matter in private.

It's just that after checking for such a long time, I have been silent, just waiting for the opportunity.

Now that the time was ripe, Lin Zhao found two Yushitai doctors who had always been upright and dared to advise, and persuaded them to stir up the old case of the Lieyang Army in the court.

The Yushi doctor Guo Mingzhang was a classmate and friend of Chen Ming, the right forward captain of the Lieyang Army in the past. He took the lead in the court and said: "Report to the emperor, I have important matters to attend to."

The emperor probably knew something in his heart, and said, "Please tell me, Ai Qing."

Guo Mingzhang said: "I recently met an old man by chance, and most of my colleagues in the court must also know him. This old man is Feng Yi, the former left forward captain of the Lieyang Army."

As soon as he said this, all the officials were in an uproar.

You must know that the Lieyang Army was convicted of treason back then, but now that it is brought up again in public, everyone has different thoughts in their hearts.

An official from the Empress Dowager's party took the lead in asking: "The crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason against the country was decided by the first emperor himself. Now that he has encountered the remnants of the Lieyang Army, Mr. Guo did not report to the superiors first, but hid him privately. Wake up, what are your intentions?"

Guo Mingzhang has been able to sit on the Yushitai for so many years, and his verbal skills are not in vain. He said: "How does Master Qiu know that I secretly hid people?"

"You, since you said that, I think this person must be with you. The Ministry of punishment has not received any news, so what else could it be if you hid him?"

Guo Mingzhang ignored him, but went on to say to the emperor: "Your Majesty, I request that the Lieyang Army's rebellion case be thoroughly investigated again!"

Now all the officials in the court were not only in an uproar, they started talking about each other one after another.

The emperor on the golden chair at the top sat firmly on it without saying a word, while Xiao Dezi beside him shouted in a shrill voice, "Silence!"

Baiguan was much quieter now.

"Aiqing, what evidence do you have that can prove that there is something else hidden in the Lieyangjun case?"

Guo Mingzhang said: "I have witnesses, please allow the guilty minister Feng Yi to go to the palace in person."

However, before he understood the emperor's words, the ministers of the queen mother's party jumped out and objected: "Your majesty, this is against the rules. Feng Yi was the one who slipped through the Lieyang army case, and Guo Yushi has the name of covering up the suspect, so he should be handed over to The Ministry of Punishment is investigating, and it is against the ancestral etiquette to allow a criminal official, even a criminal official who has committed the crime of deceiving the emperor, to come to this court."

The emperor was displeased, frowned and said: "Although the rules are set by the ancestors, people must learn to be flexible, so that they can continue to develop according to local conditions."

Then he rushed to Guo Mingzhang and said, "Yes!"

Feng Yi, who had already been waiting outside the hall, was supported by Feng Ke and Zhuo Feng from left to right, and walked tremblingly into the hall.

All the officials looked back at him one after another, and many people had mixed feelings when they saw Feng Yi's current appearance.

What a heroic person he was at the beginning, but now he is haggard, his face is full of scars, and there are folds like bugs crawling over, his limbs are weak, and he has to rely on others to walk, he looks like he is dying. Even if no punishment is imposed on him, he will not live long.

Even the emperor was very surprised to see Feng Yi's current appearance. He really didn't expect Feng Yi to become what he is now.

Although he is now a guilty minister, this appearance is really unbearable to make him kneel down, the emperor said: "Come here, give me a seat."

The honor of bestowing a seat is usually given to favored ministers, and it is the first time to give a seat to a guilty minister.

But none of the officials in the court objected, because Feng Yi's appearance was really sad.

It's all like this, and they still insist on coming to the main hall to clean up the grievances of the Lieyang Army. Just this persistence is very moving.

However, after giving the seat, Feng Yi did not sit down, he let Feng Ke and Zhuo Feng who were supporting him at the side let him go, knelt down straight and kowtowed three times.

When he raised his head again, tears filled his eyes.

Guo Mingzhang said at this time: "Your Majesty, Feng Yi has been tortured so much. The doctor said that his tendons, tendons and veins are all broken. He has been lingering for many years and his body has collapsed. His tongue has been pulled out. Now he can only write to the emperor. The truth about Yang Jun's case is revealed."

"What?" Even the emperor was extremely surprised. He didn't expect Feng Yi to end up in such a miserable state.

"Come here, I will serve you with pen and ink."

Feng Yi was taken care of by Dr. Xu in Rong Wang's mansion, and he was much better than before.

He walked up to the brush and ink book case alone with trembling steps, sat down slowly and began to write down what he knew about the truth about the Lieyang Army case.

As he wrote, his hands trembled, and he almost couldn't hold the pen several times.

When the Lieyang Army case happened, the emperor was still young, so he didn't know much about it.

Feng Yi wrote a full two pages, and at the end of the writing, the pen fell on the table with a clatter.

When Xiao Dezi presented these two pages, the words on them were crooked, not even as good as those written by a five-year-old child, which shows how hard it was for him to write them down.

After reading these contents, the emperor was furious. His entire army of [-] soldiers was wiped out and died at Tianmen Pass. Now that the guards at Tianmen Pass are weak, it is difficult to find a better guard of the northwest than He Lanting. .

It turned out that all of this was actually written by Marquis Wu An!

Marquis Wu An was standing under the court hall, and the emperor said angrily, "Marquis Wu An, look at what is written on it!"

Wu Yu picked up the two pieces of paper from the ground, scanned them hastily, and quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I have been wronged. He was the one who slandered me. Back then, I led a team of people to take the lead to meet General He Lan. Who would have imagined that?" They have already been wiped out, and the rest of the Lieyang army, I wanted to bring them back for careful interrogation, but they refused to die and committed suicide on the spot, the emperor knew about this beforehand, and I was wronged."

"Your majesty, you can't just rely on Feng Yi's one-sided words to believe his words and slander his ministers for nothing. Now that more than ten years have passed, he is the only one left alive in the Lieyang Army. At this time, no one can prove what he said. Anyone can say empty words, you can't believe what he said just because of sympathy, Your Majesty!"

At this time Lin Zhao stood up and said: "Is it true? The emperor can send someone to search the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion. Although it has been many years, there may be some evidence left behind. Qing, of course you won’t object, right?”

These words directly blocked what Wu Yu wanted to defend, he said it was wrong, and it was wrong.

At this time Zhang Yundao also stood up and said: "Your Majesty, Master Lin is right. The Lieyang Army case was too tragic. If they were all wronged, then they have suffered too much. I, Great Wei, was born and died, and left such a bad name after death, if there is really a grievance in this, if we don't find out this time, how many generals will be chilled!"

There are also quite a few military generals in the court, they are all rough old men who don't understand what Wen Zou Zou said, but they all agree with what Zhang Yundao said.

As a military general, if it is said that the general he admires the most, there are no two other than He Lanting.

At this time, they all helped to speak.

The situation in the court turned to one side one after another. Several veterans of the Queen Mother's party knew some of the inside story of the year, so they hurriedly came out to persuade: "Your Majesty, you should think twice! This matter has been investigated by the late emperor. Clearly, it is really inappropriate to dig it out and disturb the old man's spirit in heaven!"

Their first emperor moved out, and the emperor knew that this had hit their sore spot, and it would be impossible for him to stop now.

When Lin Zhao was closing his pen a year ago, he had a special meeting with him. He said that this time was the best time to bring down the Queen Mother. How could he let go of this opportunity?

So the emperor didn't care how those senior ministers tried to dissuade him, and the emperor decided directly: "What Zhang Ge said is right, I can't let the soldiers of the world feel cold, if I was wrong about this, then I will personally go to the late emperor's spirit to worship and apologize. If the late emperor was wrong, then I will not cover it up, the father's fault will be inherited by the son, and I will give justice to the Lieyang army for the late emperor!"

As soon as these words came out, all the officials knew that the emperor intended to thoroughly investigate the past of the Lieyang Army case.

"This matter is handed over to the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and Yushitai for a joint trial. Be sure to investigate and find out the truth!"

That's how it was settled.

Lin Zhao took the lead in praising the emperor's wisdom, and all the officials, whether they opposed or agreed, followed the Taoist emperor's wisdom.

After the court disbanded, Duke Protector didn't bother to go out of the palace at all, and went directly to the Empress Dowager's palace through the other side of the palace gate.

Protector Han Yi is the empress dowager's elder brother, and he played a lot of tricks behind the scenes of the Lieyang Army case.If it weren't for his help, the queen mother would not have been able to go so smoothly.

The Dongchuang incident happened today, but he didn't receive the slightest warning from the queen mother. He always felt that something was wrong, so he hurried over to discuss with this sister.

After arriving at the Ci'an Hall of the Empress Dowager, the maid in charge of the hall came out and said, "My lord, wait a moment, the empress will be here soon."

Han Yi sat and waited in the hall for a while, and vaguely heard men and women teasing from the side hall.

Han Yi frowned, looked at the maid serving beside her, and asked in a stern voice: "What are you doing in the palace these few days, Your Majesty?"

The palace maid was so frightened that she knelt down on the ground and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty—"

"What's the matter, ma'am?" Han Yi asked repeatedly.

Before the maid could answer, the queen mother came out from inside. Her clothes were disheveled, her hair was a little messy, and she looked like she had just woken up.

She said: "Why is brother so angry? I ordered them not to talk about it. They are all old people who have been with me for many years, so don't embarrass them."

"Okay, you all go down first, I will talk to my brother about my own things."

Han Yi's face was calm, and she said, "Sister, look at your current appearance, how can there be an example of a mother in the world? Also, who is that man in the room?"

He clearly heard a man's voice in the room just now.

The Empress Dowager's face froze, and then she calmed down again, and said: "What man, he is just a new eunuch who has been very tired these few days, so I asked him to pinch Ben Gong's legs."
