Chapter 477 The memorial and files of the early morning
Three days after Mrs. Meng and Mrs. Meng were arrested and went to Jingzhao Mansion, Meng Er let go and confessed to the fact that he and the demon Taoist mercy and used witchcraft to assassinate the Jiang family.
What made Mr. Jiang even more angry was that before the concubine Li Qiao worshipped the ejaculation doll who wanted to exchange Jiang Muyan or Jiang's life for her daughter and then reincarnate into her womb, Meng Er buried the extremely vicious curse-carved wooden board engraved with an extremely vicious curse into the pond in the Jiang family's garden. Later, Mr. Jiang Er dug toads everywhere in the pond to cure his daughter. Meng Er was afraid that the wooden board would be dug out by him, so he secretly took it away at night. The wooden board was also searched by the yamen in Rongri's Taoist temple. This wooden board turned the Jiang family's Fengshui pool into a life-threatening resentment pool!
Returning from Jingzhao Mansion, Mr. Jiang went straight to the east yard of the West Courtyard. He was eager to see his little daughter. It was noon at this time, and the fat girl was lying on the black stone in the courtyard, with her little mouth open and her belly slept soundly with her breathing. The light passing through the peach leaves sprinkled on her body, burning Master Jiang's eyes.
He sat on the cushioned black stone and looked at the green peaches as big as apricot on the tree. After receiving the news, Ya was coming. Seeing this scene at the gate of the cross-yard, she stepped out and told Sister Qi to guard the gate of the courtyard so that she would not disturb their father and daughter.
Mr. Jiang stayed with his daughter for a while, then left the yard without looking back and returned to Jingzhao Mansion.
In the next half month, the three greats, Dali Temple Minister, Jingzhao Prefecture Prefecture and Censor, frequently went to and from the palace and cabinet. The officials had nowhere to find out about the details. They only knew that Longsui's face was getting worse and worse day by day. Even the preparations for the National Banquet for several months also moved back half a month. This shows how much importance Wansui attached to the case. At this critical moment, the officials who chatted and chatted in various yamen became extremely busy. They went to the yamen on time every day and returned to the yamen immediately after they were dispersed, and everyone was in danger. The three brothers of the Jiang family also discussed matters in the study until late at night every day. Mr. Jiang, who was the most idle on weekdays, had no smile on his face.
Finally, on the morning court on the last day of April, Mr. Jiang and his third brother Jiang Huai sent their elder brother to the outside of the imperial city and watched him step by step into Jingfeng Gate. Outside the palace, the officials who were preparing to attend court met Jing Jiliang. Zhang Wenjiang and Xiao Junping each held a thick file with expressionless faces. This was not the end. Behind Jing Jiliang were the three most iron-headed censors of the Censorate, each holding a foot-thick memorial! The civil and military officials were worried that they would have their own names on the stacks of files.
The morning court was particularly quiet this morning. Seeing that the ministers had no idea, Emperor Jinghe asked about the progress of the Meng'an case. Jing Jiliang, the Censorate, Xiao Junping, the Minister of Dali Temple, and Zhang Wenjiang, the Chief of the Jingzhao Prefecture, went out to kneel down. The Chinese military officials were waiting with breath, and Qin Tianye's deep eyes turned around the three of them and turned to look at Yin Qian.
Yin Qian stood at the head of the civil servant, holding three elephant scepters. Although Qin Tianye didn't know what he wrote on the elephant scepter, he understood that he would also report things. Qin Tianye smiled and gently stroked the black jade ring on the thumb of his left hand, and see how these people were going to do it.
Zhang Wenjiang said, "Long live my life, Meng Huizhou confessed to sending people to An Yunchang's mansion in an attempt to kill An Yunchang. The killer sent by Meng Huizhou can also testify. Meng Huizhou did this because he wanted An Yunchang to bear the crime of burning the Ministry of Justice and the criminals six years ago."
"Wow--" All officials were in a state of turmoil. Even though they were mentally prepared, no one expected that Zhang Wenjiang came up and exposed the fire of the Ministry of Justice six years ago. This is a big taboo in the court!
Emperor Jing He's eyes swept over the Chinese civil and military officials in the court, and everyone calmed down. Zhang Wenjiang continued, "The fire in the Ministry of Justice six years ago was done by An Yunchang, but he said that he was instructed by Meng Huizhou, and Meng Huizhou said that An Yunchang was falsely accused."
Emperor Jing He thought for a moment and asked again, "Since the fire in the Ministry of Justice has nothing to do with Meng Huizhou, why did he kill An Yunchang to silence him?"
Xiao Junping said, "Long live the words. Meng Huizhou killed An Yunchang to silence him because he was afraid that An Yunchang would leak the fire in the Ministry of Justice that Meng Huizhou falsely accused soldiers of killing Jiang Mian, the Minister of Justice."
A commotion broke out in the court again, and his eyes were all looking at Jiang Mian, the eldest son of Jiang Mian, who was standing at the last place of all officials, the fifth-rank ritual doctor. Jiang Song had been waiting for six years. The bamboo scepter in his hand trembled, and he knelt on the ground with his official robe and touched the ground with his head.
Jing Hedi, who was sitting on the dragon throne, looked at Jiang Song kneeling in the hall gate, and immediately thought of Jiang Feng who had not seen for many days. His eyes turned back to Xiao Junping and asked majesticly, "Xiao Qing, can the case of Meng Huizhou killing Jiang Mian be found out?"
Xiao Junping bowed again, "Long live my life, the evidence of this case is conclusive. In August of the first year of Jinglong, Meng Huizhou, who was then the Minister of Justice, found out that the Minister of Justice, Lord Du, might be promoted. In order to obtain the position of Minister of Justice, he used medicine to fascinate Jiang Mian, who was also the Minister of Justice, on the night of An Yunchanghuo's burning, he used medicine to fascinate Jiang Mian, who was also the Minister of Justice, and then hung him on the beam of the house. He pretended to be Jiang Mian's handwriting and wrote a confession letter, and blamed Jiang Mian for the burning of the An Yunchanghuo. Meng Huizhou confessed to this and had signed and sealed the letter."
Emperor Jing He held the armrest of the dragon chair, and the wind and clouds were gathering on his face. The eunuchs, Yang Feng, who was standing beside him, and the general Kong Fengge, in front of the hall, were all ready.
"Only confessions, no convictions can be convicted. I asked Meng Huizhou to write the suicide note he wrote in prison that he had blamed Jiang Mian, and then retrieved the "authority letter" left by Jiang Mian from the Ministry of Justice. Then I went to the Jiang family to retrieve Jiang Mian's manuscripts, and together with many evidences of Meng Huizhou imitating Jiang Mian's handwriting seized by the An family and the Meng family, and carefully compared these handwritings. I confirmed with Lord Jing, Lord Zhang and many officials in the three departments that the suicide note was indeed forged by Meng Huizhou. Please stay tuned." Xiao Junping took out a thick stack of files from his sleeve and held them over his head.
Emperor Jinghe nodded slightly, Yang Feng went down to pick up the file and presented it to the imperial examination. The eyes of the ministers moved pages with Long Sui's hands turning the file, and they were all estimating how serious the crimes of Meng Huizhou and An Yunchang were.
Xiao Junping continued, "Meng Huizhou imitated Jiang Mian's handwriting in the file was written by his left hand, and the collection of poems in the file was written by Meng Huizhou's right hand. When Meng Huizhou was a young man, he became a disciple of Jiang Mian's father. He studied with Jiang Mian for more than ten years. Later, he served as an official in the same yamen for twenty years. He was very familiar with Jiang Mian's handwriting and writing style, so he imitated it vividly, deceived the lords who investigated the case back then."
Back then, several adults from the Ministry of Justice who set fire to Jiang Song and burned the fire fell to the ground and knelt down to apologize. Everyone knew that Jiang Mian was wronged. The reason why he used Jiang Mian to overwork and overturned the candle to burn the Ministry of Justice to close the case was because it was the most convenient way to make a case, and the fewest people involved.
The civil and military officials looked up at Qin Tianye, who was standing in front of him, and they all understood it very well. The truth was here, who dared to investigate?
After finishing the file, the censor Jing Jirao said loudly, "I have reported that Meng Huizhou and An Yunchang and other officials of the Ministry of Justice have dereliction of duty and corruption in recent years. Meng Xunli, the second son of Meng Huizhou, joined forces with Hanshan to watch the demon path and dissolve the sun, and used witchcraft techniques to harm Jiang Song's family twice, trying to use evil techniques to destroy the Jiang family's son and grandson; Hanshan to watch the demon path and dissolve the sun, and did many evil deeds, and used witchcraft, false talismans and other means to deceive the people dozens of times. The file is here, please read it."
Jing Jira and the two censors piled half a man's high memorials and files in front of them. The thick memorials made people breathless.
Jiang Song's eyes were filled with tears, his hands were clenched into fists, and he was waiting with his breath.
