An imperial historian of the Metropolitan Procuratorate loudly denounced the Crown Prince's rebellion at night. Anyway, he was going to talk about Zhu Cixuan's rebellion.
Zhu Cixuan laughed at this and said, "My palace is plotting against me? Is there something wrong with your brain that can't be cured? The eight Shanxi merchants colluded to build slaves, and the evidence is conclusive."
The famous commentator was even more angry when he was humiliated in public. In the long speech of Confucius, he told Zhu Cixuan about his crime of killing the court officials, which made Chongzhen's face livid on the throne.
Zhu Cixuan just smiled coldly and said, "Your Majesty has ordered me not to touch officials above the fourth grade. I have already given you face in this palace. Don't be shameful!"
The famous commentator said angrily, "What's your highness's intention? It's to suspect that we can't collude with the traitorous Shanxi merchant?"
Zhu Cixuan came to him, glanced at him and asked, "What's your name?"
The famous saying officer snorted, even shook his foot arrogantly, and said: "Your highness wants to kill me, too?"
Zhu Cixuan ignored him. He just reached into his arms, touched him, and pulled out again. The officials looked at the crown prince curiously. They didn't know what he was looking for. Chongzhen was also curious.
Before long, everyone saw the crown prince take out a large stack of documents from his arms, which were more than one meter long when opened.
Zhu Cixuan searched the document for a long time, and finally found the name of the guard sheet.
Zhu Cixuan glanced at the imperial historian and read: "Wei Dan, a scholar in the fourth year of the Tianqi era, was the head of the household in the second year of Chongzhen era, and became the Imperial Historian of the Right King of the Imperial Procuratorate in the sixth year of Chongzhen era. Over the past three years, he has impeached 120 memorials, and a total of 43 officials, large and small, have been impeached."
Zhu Cixuan stopped and looked at the imperial historian named Wei with some surprise. He said that the goods were very good. It was like catching someone!
When Wei Dan heard that others read about his achievements, he naturally raised his head and looked very proud. After three years as an imperial historian, he would be ashamed to say hello to his colleagues if he didn't go to the impeachment memorial.
Looking at the appearance of the royal Shi Deser, Zhu Cixuan smiled in his heart and made you cry later. He continued to read: "In the seventh year of Chongzhen's reign, Wei Wushuang, the trustee of Wei Dan, bought a mansion in the outer city, worth five thousand and three hundred taels of silver; in the eighth year of Chongzhen's reign, Wei Dalu, Wei Dan's father, opened three grain stores in Xintaicang, east city, worth nine thousand taels of silver;
In the ninth year of Chongzhen's reign, Wei Dan's wife, Yu Shi, had a high-end jade shop under the Mingyu Square in Xicheng, which was worth 26000 taels of silver. In addition, Wei Dan had 3000 mu of farmland, two courtyards and seven shops in his hometown Yuncheng, Shanxi... "
Wei Dan, who was quite proud of himself, was shocked when he heard Zhu Cixuan read these things.
Chongzhen on the throne slapped on the handrail. His right hand was so numb that he could not care about it. He said angrily, "Weidan! Where did you get your money from?"
His own background has been revealed, and Wei Dan knows he has no luck, so he can only kneel on the ground, trembling all over.
Zhu Cigui said, "Your Majesty, Wei Shan, whose ancestral home is Shanxi, was bought by the eight Shanxi merchants when he was elected. Every year, the profiteers give him a lot of money, so he always speaks for those traitors."
Looking at Wei Shan who knelt on the ground and did not speak, Chongzhen knew that he had confessed his guilt, and was even more angry. He said angrily, "You Jin Yu Shi Wei Shan, who is corrupt enough to bully the emperor! The Royal Guards copied his home, stripped Wei Shan of his skin and grass according to the standard set by Emperor Taizu Gao, and hung it in the west market!"
When Wei Shan heard the words, his mind suddenly lost. He was paralyzed on the ground, and his clothes were full of excrement and urine.
The Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Punishment said, "Your majesty, the punishment of skinning has been forbidden by the Zuo Xun. You can't do it again!"
"Peel! You have to cut your head before you peel it! Who will plead for the same sin?" Chongzhen roared, so frightened that officials could not stop him.
Zhu Cixuan was amused that the acting skills of the emperor Laozi were really good. He was really an actor who was delayed by the throne.
To peel the skin and make the grass is to peel off the whole human skin, fill it with grass, and make it into a human skin bag. When you think about it, everyone in the whole Imperial Court dares to interrupt. Even Tang Shiji, who has memorized his lines and is ready to answer the guard bill, counseled, and couldn't help but shrink back.
Seeing that no one spoke, Zhu Cixuan slowly folded the document and casually said: "If it was not for the kindness of His Majesty the Father, who would not expand the matter, could any of you still ask questions like this in front of the palace?"
As he said this, he went to Tang Shiji on purpose and caught a meaningful glimpse of him. What Tang Shiji said outside the Meridian Gate was secretly recorded by the eunuch guarding the Meridian Gate and passed on to Zhu Cixuan.
Not only Tang Shiji, but also many ministers present were restless, looking at the pamphlet in Zhu Cixuan's hand with burning eyes and some fear.
Wen Tiren swept a circle of people and looked at everything. He slowly said: "How does your highness know these things? Has your majesty restored the investigation authority of the Royal Guards?"
Jiang is still old and spicy. When Wen Tiren said that, the ministers quit, what's the meaning? What about revoking the authority of the factory guard to monitor the officials? Why is it here again? What about trust between monarchs and ministers?
The ministers began to make some comments. They looked at Zhu Cixuan and Chongzhen with strange eyes, very dissatisfied, very unhappy!
Chongzhen was also a little worried. He made a look at Zhu Cixuan. He was also a little confused and wanted him to explain.
"You old man, you really can turn around!" Zhu Cixuan cursed Wen Tiren in his heart. At the same time, he knew that if this matter was not explained clearly, he would not be easy to mix in the future, and it would not be too much for both the Manchu and the Korean dynasties to be enemies.
Who would like to live under the surveillance of others every day, receive a gift on New Year's Day, go to a brothel on weekdays, and let everyone know my sister. Who can be happy?
Zhu Cixuan said: "My palace is able to kill thousands of Jiannu at 5000 Yongwei Battalion, not only by the well-trained and brave soldiers of the Yongwei Battalion, but also by the excellent dragon Xiang who is good at collecting intelligence. I don't think Wenge doesn't know that."
Zhu Cixuan could only rely on the fact that Longxiang didn't stop at night. He continued: "Longxiang in our Yongwei camp didn't stop at night. He dared to go deep into the Jiannu army to investigate within five miles. This information is nothing!"
"So your highness doesn't collect the night in the army from the Minister of Supervision?" Wen Tiren said calmly.
Zhu Cixuan frowned and said, "What is the old man Wen Ge saying? I, Long Xiang, don't accept the responsibility of investigating the military situation of the enemy at night. I cut off the head of the Tartar to receive the reward and respect the country. I don't have the leisure time to deal with your family's troubles!"
Zhu Cixuan opened the pamphlet again, held it in his hand, and said: "As for this thing, it was some evidence that my palace found in the house of the Shanxi merchants when it asked the night not to collect investigation and evidence. All the people listed above were colluders with the enemy merchants. The amount of bribes they received was recorded everywhere."
Zhu Cixuan said: "But almost all of the people listed above have been arrested by the Royal Guards. I think the rest of them are merciful and don't want to be investigated too much. I hope some people will behave themselves well and try to do a good job for the Imperial Court and atone for their sins!"
Then he took out a fire book from his body, lit the document on the spot and burned it all.
