"Sir, water can carry a boat but it can also capsize it. Now that the boat is broken, the old slave doesn't care so much about his family." Ma Fu saluted him, "Sir, don't blame me."

Feng Chengyue's face was gloomy, and he couldn't stop shaking as he pressed his palms against the armrest. Chen Jinqiu even raised his voice in one breath, staring at Ma Fu nervously.

Ma Fu lowered his head and said in a solemn voice: "In the seventh year of Zhongyong, the old slave did intercept a secret letter, and the messenger's name was Jiang Lin. Then I had Jiang Lin captured and buried alive in the mountains on the outskirts of Daizhou.

, and also coerced and induced the adopted son Ma He to go to Chongdu to surrender and accuse——"

"Ma Fu!" Feng Chengyue stood up quickly, "How dare you?!"

Ma Fu suddenly laughed, with a strange and hard-to-discern expression: "My lord, don't be surprised, this is all my fault. Sir, please treat my family and children well for the sake of the old slave's many years of service."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience was shocked. Feng Chengyue sat back in his seat as if he was exhausted. Chen Jinqiu breathed a sigh of relief and immediately looked at Chen Qiusheng.

Ma Fu's actions were already intended to be borne by him alone. The situation suddenly became clear and a turning point had arrived!

"Ma Fu, do you admit that you plotted to murder Jiang Lin?" Chen Qiusheng's eyes twitched, "Did someone instigate it?"

"No one instigated it." Ma Fu bowed down and his arms trembled, "It was me, Ma Fu, who did it alone!"

Chen Qiusheng took a deep breath, as if suppressing his anger, and said, "Why did you intimidate your adopted son Ma and frame Jiang Zimo?"

"Heirs of Zhen Yi, anyone who plots rebellion and treason will be punished!" Ma Fu looked up at the moment as if he had made up his mind, "If we leave this scourge behind, we may endanger the country and the country in the future!"

Feng Chengyue stroked his beard and said with appreciation: "Well said!"

Who among the officials present can’t understand? Ma Fu has to fight the crime alone, after all, his family is in Feng Chengyue’s hands!

What should Chen Qiusheng do? Everyone has already realized that he wants to thoroughly investigate the letter case, and he will not let anyone go!

But now Ma Fu has taken the blame and completely wiped out Feng Chengyue. Even though he knew clearly that Feng Chengyue was the mastermind behind it, there was nothing he could do about it.

Chen Qiusheng's expression changed, and he suddenly nodded with admiration and said: "It is a good idea to endanger the country and the country. Such loyalty is very valuable. Jiao Shishi, let me ask you, Luo Chuan sent a letter to Wei Shi Liu Shuoyun, what do you think?

I have never opened the letter, but is this so?"

Jiao Peng nodded fearlessly: "Exactly."

Chen Qiusheng coughed twice before saying, "Okay, someone, come and show him the evidence letter."

The soldier approached with a tray. Jiao Pengxing was immediately puzzled when he saw that there were actually several letters placed on the wooden tray.

He said: "I wonder which letter you want me to read?"

Chen Qiusheng's coughing suddenly became a little heavier. He raised his sleeve and wiped his mouth and said, "Take a look."

Jiao Pengxing picked up one letter suspiciously and started reading it. But after reading one letter, he seemed to suddenly wake up. His eyes widened and he opened one letter after another. After a while, his hands began to tremble.

This strange appearance also made everyone look at him curiously.

"This is..." Jiao Pengxing looked horrified, "You, how could you have such a letter?!"

"Jiao Shishi, these letters were all found in your room." Liu Shuoyun said as if to comfort him, "I brought them here specially so that you can take a good look at them in broad daylight."

"How dare you!" Jiao Pengxing stood up suddenly, pointed at Chen Qiusheng in the lobby and shouted categorically, "I am Shi Jiao Pengxing, a frontier soldier, and these are just letters home from my sister and I, Chen Qiusheng!

Don’t forget that my sister is the current queen!”

Chen Qiusheng's face was expressionless. He was like a calm lake, without waves. Whenever he spoke, he was understated and calm.

"I naturally know the current queen." Chen Qiusheng's face turned red. He stood up and went down the steps, accurately picking up a letter from the tray, "I dare to ask, how do you explain this letter to Daizhou Mu?

?”

Jiao Pengxing calmed himself down: "This, these are just letters between friends."

Chen Qiusheng handed the letter over and said calmly: "Read it."

"How presumptuous!" Jiao Pengxing shouted immediately, "I am the Queen's brother, and you want me to read my privacy in public?! Chen Qiusheng, don't bully me!"

"There are only ministers in the court now, and there are no relatives of the emperor." Chen Qiusheng took a step closer and said, "Read it."

Jiao Pengxing raised his hand and waved it away, shouting with a red face: "I think you don't want to be a court captain anymore!"

Chen Qiusheng knew that the other party did not dare, so he held up the letter and said: "It is not up to the Holy One to decide whether my official position should be - Captain Liang, please read this letter."

Liang Fenghou was about to get the letter when Jiao Pengxing suddenly reached out to grab it!

Liang Fenghou had quick eyes and quick hands. He grabbed Jiao Pengxing's wrist and pulled it down. Jiao Pengxing screamed in pain.

Liang Fenghou held Jiao Pengxing in one hand, lifted the paper and shook it open with the other hand, saying: "Jiao Shishi personally received it, and the secret letter has been entrusted to someone to take care of it. Jiang Lin is dead. I have ordered someone to replace Jiang Lin and go to Chongdu to surrender."

Sin, Jiang Zimo will not be able to escape this time——"

"That's good." Chen Qiusheng interrupted him, "Jiao Shishi, now this matter affects Jiuzhou, and the Holy Emperor is also watching in Chongdu. I ask you now, do you admit it?"

"Master Chen." Feng Chengyue stood up silently, "Do you know what you are doing? If this case is tried like you do, I am afraid it will change drastically."

A cold rain began to fall in the gloomy sky, and the fine raindrops scattered in an instant turned into a downpour.

The people outside the stadium had nowhere to hide, and they were all hit hard, but they didn't leave, they were all looking forward to it.

This case affects everyone's heart. They no longer want Jiang Zimo to be safe and sound.

They want the truth!

Chen Qiusheng looked back at Feng Chengyue, their eyes met!

In the midst of the heated debate, Chen Qiusheng calmly replied: "There is only one sky in the Zheng Kingdom."

Rumble.

The thunder snake swam away from the clouds, and Jiang Zimo seemed to have endured the moment he could breathe.

He raised his old face and saw Chen Qiusheng's appearance clearly through his cloudy eyes.

"You are really stubborn." Feng Chengyue leaned in and whispered, "If this matter reaches Master Sikong, your Chen family may cease to exist."

"Lord Feng, you are too worried. There is no Chen family here, only the laws of Zheng." Chen Qiusheng looked at him, "Fengzhou Pastor, how do you explain these letters?"

Feng Chengyue turned sideways and said in a dark voice: "I just obey your orders."

This scene fell in Jiang Zimo's eyes, and he understood.

Chen Qiusheng won, but he also lost.

"Come on, the evidence is conclusive." Chen Qiusheng covered his lips and coughed a few times, "The shepherd of Fengzhou, the scholar Jiao Pengxing, and the housekeeper Ma Fu conspired and secretly ordered the subordinate Luo Chuan to pretend to be Jiang Lin, and according to the law, he was thrown into prison

, so the case involves many things, so when I return to the capital, all those involved in the case will be escorted back together and the details will be heard."

The sleeves of the robe were dyed a little red, and Chen Qiusheng seemed to take two steps casually, then stood firmly in place.

Ma Fu was stunned in surprise and was dragged away like a piece of wood. Jiao Pengxing was held up and yelled and cursed loudly. Only Feng Chengyue shook off the restraints of the officers and soldiers and walked calmly to the prison with his hands behind his back.

Everyone looked at Chen Qiusheng as if they were suffocated. The governor of the state, the emperor's relatives, and the country's relatives were all convicted by him and thrown into prison. No one understood why he did this, and no one could understand or understand what he was going to do.

.

He is like a mountain stream behind dense fog in the rain.

Only when opportunity comes.

The only clarity you can see.

…

The fog gradually disperses in the rain.

You can hear the needle drop inside and outside the court.

"Jiang Zimo." Chen Qiusheng looked at the people gathered outside the lobby, "There are all the evidence of this criminal. Do you... recognize it?"

Jiang Zimo looked at him. At this moment, he only had Chen Qiusheng in his eyes. Emperor Zheng Wu called him "Dingze Zhensong" back then, and everyone in Kyushu admired his personality and governance methods.

When he was young, he was a strong green pine that protected Zheng from the wind and rain, and no one looked down upon him in the court. When he grew old, he was an old tree in the vast ocean of Yanzhou, earning a moment of respite for the people.

But now the sky of Zheng State has gradually been covered by a big hand, and the officials in the court tend to be flattering and corrupt, and he is heartbroken.

But for the sake of Zheng Guo, he could only huddle in Yanzhou and wait for the world to change. But that hand has now covered the bright sun and strangled the throats of the people at dawn.

The light is gone.

There were shrill wails and evil laughter in the darkness. He was frightened and disgusted by what he heard, and thought about passing away and returning to his hometown to retire.

But I didn't expect that in this soil filled with blood and conspiracy, there would be a spotless mirror buried.

Jiang Zimo seemed to see his young self in the mirror, unruly and unruly, standing on a high cliff overlooking all living beings. But there was still a calmness and calmness in Chen Qiusheng that he had never had before.

Calm, calm and emotionless.

And it was this absolute coldness that suddenly injected a long-lost hope into Jiang Zimo's weak heart.

Perhaps this bright mirror can illuminate a dawn for Zheng Guo.

"I..."

Jiang Zimo seemed to be feeling regretful and happy at the same time. He knelt on the ground and bowed in court.

"I...please plead guilty."

All the people's clenched hearts followed Jiang Zimo's bow, and they all knelt down in an uproar, wailing and wailing to the sky, shouting, 'My lord, you are wronged!'

Chen Qiusheng covered his lips and coughed twice. He looked at the people walking out of the lobby, with a surprisingly tight frown on his calm face.

The hoarse tone seemed to overflow from his throat, and he said: "Is it the king's land in the whole world, and the king's ministers on the shore of the land! Now that Jiang Zimo has been punished, all of you, dare to ask, I, Chen Qiusheng,

Can you cut off every single strand of it?"

The people immediately stopped crying and raised their heads, looking at Chen Qiusheng walking slowly out of the lobby in a daze, being soaked by the heavy rain in an instant.

"I know that Yanzhou Mu has done great work in controlling floods for many years. You have a boss in your heart and want to avenge him." Chen Qiusheng breathed a little heavier, "But the laws and regulations of the Zheng State come first. If the offenders are openly punished because of old feelings,

If we can avoid it, then we are unable to do so, and if the country cannot do so, then the people will not support it!

I, Chen Qiusheng, have been entrusted by the emperor to serve as a court official, and I am in charge of the laws of the Zheng State. If I make a mistake, all the people of the Zheng State in the world can eat my flesh and sleep on my skin to vent their anger. But if I make no judgment,

Wrong, everyone, you are calling for injustice, where does the injustice come from?"

The common people looked around after hearing this, as if they were stopped by Chen Qiusheng's question.

After a while, only a man dressed as a scholar squeezed out of the crowd on his knees. His face was wet by the rain, and he saluted with both hands and said: "Master Chen's judgment of the case is strict, without any deviation, and we are sincerely convinced!"

But sir, Mr. Jiang has been guarding our Yanzhou for thirty years! Floods have occurred frequently in the past thirty years, and now summer is approaching. When the floods occur, I dare to ask, sir, what are the millions of people in the 14 counties of Yanzhou?
