Chapter 144 The Arrest
Just when Yang Xin was bewitching the Apocalypse, Wang An had already explained everything very simply.
All it should be said.
He didn't need to protect the Donglin Party. Both sides were just an alliance in interests. Now that he was finished, he wanted to drag these guys into the imperial prison, and everyone would be a companion on the road to the underworld. However, Luo Sigong didn't say anything. He still insisted that he was deceived, just mistakenly thought that Wang An was accusing the imperial edict. He arranged muskets to ambush Yang Xin just because he was afraid that he would resist arrest. In order to perform his duties, Wang An said that he would collect cash...
No!
Absolutely not!
Anyway, Xu Xianchun didn't dare to torture him. The seal of Luo Zhang in Zhao Prison was really more effective than his words. Zhao Prison was promoted from top to bottom by Luo Sigong.
Of course, Apocalypse is not interested in him for the time being.
With Wang An's confession, just bite out Li Sancai, Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou and others.
The arrest began that night.
In front of a mansion in Sichengfang, there were crowds of people in the light of torches. Amid the discussion, the onlookers watched the Jinyiwei bring out the owner of the mansion.
And there was a cry inside.
"Let me go, Yang is the minister who is the emperor who is in charge of his life. How can you let you be so humiliated!"
Yang Lian pushed away the Jinyiwei beside him and said righteously and walked out of the door.
"Yang Ke said, since you are the emperor of the Great Destiny, you naturally know the rules. We are not saying that you are guilty. Since Wang An confessed that you ordered him to kill Yang Tongzhi, we have to find you to find out the matter clearly. Don't worry, our Jinyiwei will not wrongly a good person, nor will he let a bad person go. If Wang An accused him, then Long Live the Lord will naturally give you a clean innocence!"
Tian Ergeng, who was waiting outside the door, said.
Yang Lian sorted out his clothes with a graceful manner, looked at Yang Xin standing in the crowd, and then snorted coldly and stretched out his hands.
A Jinyiwei immediately handcuffed him.
He didn't say much nonsense, but just walked into the prison car outside the door so proudly, and then, amid the discussion of the onlookers who were separated, went to the imperial prison under the Jinyiwei. As for what was waiting for him, there was no need to say. Xu Xianchun, who had just lost his position as a palm print in front of Tianqi because of his poor performance, was ready to show his abilities to Tianqi. He did not dare to torture Luo Sigong, but he didn't care about Yang Lian.
Yang Xin looked at the man in a sigh in the crowd.
This is a famous positive example in history books. As the one who sent him to the imperial prison four years in advance, Yang Xin felt very strange at this time, but as he said to Xu Hongru, whether a hero or an ambitious person, those who block his way will die. Even if Yang Lian is really strong, since he is already a stumbling block on his way forward, he must kick it away without mercy. This is not a time to show a sense of justice. This is a political struggle, a bloody political struggle.
Why did Yang Lian's group of people rise slowly if he doesn't fall down?
If these people don't fall, it's probably his turn to fall.
But things are not that simple.
This Yang Lian is a famous hard-core. If he does not confess, the Jinyiwei will not be able to convict him based on Wang An's mouth. He cannot be beheaded and made public at will. As one of the ministers appointed by Taichang before his death, he must have sufficient evidence to kill him, and he must confess his guilt. In fact, this is almost impossible, but fortunately, the Jinyiwei has no detention period. If Tianqi does not issue an order to release him, he will have to stay in the imperial prison. Whether Tianqi releases or not depends on how much pressure the Donglin Party can put on the emperor in this matter...
"Brother Wang, please stay!"
Yang Xin shouted fifty meters away, looking at a back that was turning around and blending into the darkness.
The latter quickly merged into the darkness.
"Brother Wang, do you think you can escape?"
Yang Xin said.
Those who were watching the fun immediately turned their heads, and at the same time, Tian Ergeng waved his hand, and the Jinyiwei immediately separated the crowd and rushed over, and the man stopped simply and turned his head slowly.
"Yang Tongzhi, are you talking about me?"
He said.
"Wang Wenyan, a student at the Imperial College?"
Tian Ergeng said.
“That’s right!”
Wang Wenyan said frankly.
"Take it!"
Tian Ergeng immediately took out a driving post and said.
Immediately afterwards, the Jinyiwei rushed over and quickly handcuffed Wang Wenyan.
"Yang Tongzhi, what Wang An did was indeed accomplice with Wang, but Wang was very curious about how Yang Tongzhi knew about this? We believed that we were careful enough for our conspiracy. Apart from Wang An and me, even those who were holding pens in the Silijian did not know how Yang Tongzhi was so good at predicting things?"
Wang Wenyan said.
"You are such a loyal dog!"
Yang Xin did not answer his question, but said with emotion.
Wang Wenyan knew that she was definitely finished.
In fact, he is not even a member of the Donglin Party, but a dog. Although he tries to be a competent dog, he cannot change this fact. The Donglin Party will not save him. He will abandon such a small role at will, and the relationship between him and Wang An is well known.
But he also wanted to do his best to do something for his master.
He also had to work hard to protect Yang Lian and others. Although he could not do anything at this time, he still had to try his best to do something for his master in this way, and directly admit that he and Wang An were conspiring to make a fortune. Anyway, the capital knew that he was Wang An's counselor.
But Yang Lian and others were picked out.
It is true that he is Wang An's counselor, but few people know that he is the secret stake of the Donglin Party in the capital.
Then, through these idlers around, the capital city's tabloids will soon spread this matter throughout the country. In this matter, most gentry will support Yang Lian. As long as the struggle between the Jinyiwei and civil servants is involved, all gentry will quickly put the Jinyiwei as a villain. And the Donglin Party will fuel the fire again, and a crime of persecuting loyal ministers by the Jinyiwei will be unanimously criticized by the whole country, and then a public opinion storm against the new emperor will be formed.
In this way, the Apocalypse was forced to surrender.
All he could do was to endure the torture of the Jinyiwei and bit the entire edict plan to death. He planned it with Wang An and had nothing to do with Yang Lian and others.
It was the Jinyiwei who was framed.
It was Yang Xin, the eunuch party and other slander ministers who deliberately wanted to frame Yang Lian and other loyal ministers.
As long as he bit this to death, Wang An's confession would be insufficient, the Jinyiwei would not be able to convict Yang Lian and others, and the case would continue to be stalemate, so that the bosses of the Donglin Party in the south would protect his family and even reward his family with wealth.
After all, Donglin Qunxian has the final say in Nanzhili.
This is also their biggest reliance.
"Wang at least knows loyalty and righteousness, knows that good and evil are incompatible, and knows that they cannot help King Zhou. The affairs of the Qianqing Palace are nothing more than Li Xuanshi who wants to hide the emperor and the Queen of Martial Arts. The prince served Emperor Daxing for his whole life, and he was loyal to the Ming Dynasty and wanted to prevent problems before it happened. Unfortunately, a group of treacherous gangs ruined the major affairs. Yang Tongzhi was kind to Emperor Shenzong, and was less than two years old, but he helped King Zhou for his own personal gain. Can Yang Tongzhi know his loyalty and righteousness?"
Wang Wenyan said like a righteous man who angrily denounced a traitor.
"Loyalty?"
Yang Xin sneered.
"Your loyalty is nothing more than being a good dog and then asking for the bones of the owner's alms, but you really don't understand my loyalty."
He continued.
"Aren't you?"
Wang Wenyan sneered.
"I, I'm not!"
Yang Xin said.
At this time, a team of Jinyiwei came over and the leader saluted him and Tian Ergeng...
"Yang Tongzhi, Tian Zhangyin, Li Sancai was not in the capital. It is said that he had left Beijing in the afternoon and went out to visit friends. Before leaving, he even invited dozens of officials from the court."
He said.
Tian Ergeng looked at Yang Xin.
"Go to Zhangjiawan!"
Yang Xin said.
"Go overnight?"
Tian Ergeng said in surprise.
"I don't dare to be careless about this old fox. There is something wrong with this. He is the real cunning person. If we talk about playing with the brain, we may not have played with him."
Yang Xin said.
Li Sancai obviously ran away.
If he didn't want to run away, even if he knew that Wang An had failed, there was no need to leave the capital in such a hurry. His family was Zhangjiawan, and going back was just to let the Jinyiwei take a few more steps. Since he still left in a hurry, 80% of the time it was possible that he would run away.
This old guy has a more respectful identity than Yang Lian.
Although he had resigned for ten years, his disciples and former officials were all over the court and the country. The nickname of the King of Tota, which he gave him for nine thousand years, was right. He was Chao Gai, the King of Tota in Water Margin. It was estimated that the property of up to 4.7 million yuan made him countless friends across the country. He even opened a college in Zhangjiawan following the Donglin Academy. In the past ten years, many students entered the officialdom.
This is a real elder.
In fact, the Jinyiwei didn't even get the driver to catch him.
The Criminal Department issued a letter from Yang Lian and others, but Li Sancai's did not. The six departments jointly submitted a report to the clerk to complain to Li Sancai.
The Jinyiwei just ordered him to confront Wang An.
And he was not fleeing for fear of sin.
The officials he invited would testify to him, and they were going out to visit friends. If Tianqi forced his order to search the house, all the civil and military officials of the court would stand up and oppose it. Fang Congzhe would not issue this ticket, and the criminal department would not sign a ticket. All the officials of the Censors and the officials were besieging Tianqi together, and all the local governors and governors submitted a memorial to him.
At that time, the whole country would be in an uproar.
Even Tianqi could not withstand the siege of the entire officialdom. He wanted to be an emperor, not a single husband. In fact, this little emperor was very rational. From his performance this morning, he could not do anything brainlessly. He knew to do both kindness and power to the ministers, and he knew to take a step back when needed.
If the Jinyiwei cannot catch Li Sancai, he cannot be convicted.
In fact, the Jinyiwei had no chance of catching what Li Sancai wanted to hide.
He really has the ability to stop.
Once this old guy ran to Nandu, he ran to the base camp of the Donglin Party...
"No, hurry up, mobilize people and chase them in all directions!"
Chapter completed!
