Broken pieces of paper, half-burned envelopes, plus the assumptions that the previous memorial had instilled in Emperor Zhou in advance.
The assumption that Wen Jie was resentful and colluded with King Zhao had already taken root in Emperor Zhou's mind!
Emperor Zhou was a wise king and not a suspicious person, but now that the evidence was in front of him, Emperor Zhou couldn't help but be suspicious!
Emperor Zhou opened the second cloth bag, which contained two volumes.
Emperor Zhou had different martial arts skills. Although he saw one of the volumes written on Shattered Bone Palm, he did not understand its meaning.
"Li Qing, what is this?!"
"Go back to your superiors. This is evidence that Wen Jie colluded with the Japanese pirates!"
"evidence?!"
Emperor Zhou opened another volume, which was all written in Japanese characters.
Li Xunhuan explained, "Sir, these two volumes are a set of Japanese martial arts - "Bone Broken Palm". After asking Mr. Yang, I found out that this is a secret martial arts from Japan."
Yang Qingyuan followed Li Xunhuan's words and immediately went on to say, "I'll tell you, this "Bone-Breaking Palm" is a unique skill inherited from the Japanese martial arts family Yagyu Tajima Mamoru. This person is also one of the masterminds behind the Japanese pirate attacks on the southeastern coast!"
"Yesterday, when Li Yushi showed this scroll to Wei Chen, Wei Chen discovered that it was the original manuscript of Japan's secret martial arts. The paper was also quite old. It should be a treasured copy passed down by the Yagyu family. It is so precious.
The secret book should not be revealed to others easily!"
Emperor Zhou couldn't understand, so he handed the secret book in his hand to Hua Yuhuatian, the director and factory director of the West Factory, "Yu Huatian, you are a master of martial arts, take a look at this secret book."
Yang Qingyuan also looked at the factory belle curiously. Compared to Cao Zhengchun, Eunuch Yu made very few appearances. He rarely accompanied Emperor Zhou and was often away on errands, so he was rarely seen.
But I have to admit that this Mr. Yu does have the capital to be a factory flower in the West.
Only when the rain turned into fields did Yang Qingyuan realize that femininity and motherhood are two different concepts!
After Yu Huatian briefly read it, "Long live, this is indeed a martial arts secret book. The method of its operation is different from the Central Plains martial arts, but my servant has little knowledge and does not understand Japanese martial arts, so I dare not speak nonsense!"
Emperor Zhou's face was calm and his expression could not be seen. He put down the two martial arts books and continued to ask.
"How many soldiers and armor were found from Wenjie's mansion!?"
"The Metropolitan Procuratorate and Dali Temple searched the Wen Mansion and obtained thirteen pairs of cloth armor, twenty-seven pairs of leather armor, twenty pairs of chain armor, eight pairs of plate armor, a total of sixty-eight pairs of armor, and eighty bows.
, fifteen crossbows, and a total of two hundred and fifteen pieces of swords, spears, and weapons! This is the result of the statistics of the ministers, please take a look at it!"
Yang Qingyuan took out another memorial from his sleeve and presented it to Emperor Zhou!
Emperor Zhou's face looked a little ugly.
These weapons and armor, combined with the servants and killers of Shangwen Mansion, can already raise an army of nearly two hundred people!
If King Zhao really rebels, the army of two hundred people can play a big role by taking him by surprise.
Under the preconception consciousness, Emperor Zhou had already begun to think about Wen Jie's rebellion.
In fact, as a high-ranking military commander in the imperial court, it was normal for Wenjie to have weapons in his home.
Including the military commanders and nobles currently in the imperial court, armors, weapons, swords, bows and crossbows can all be found in their homes, and this collection accounts for a large part.
Among military generals, the proportion of Confucian generals is not high. In terms of collection taste, they are nothing more than beauties, BMWs, and magic weapons.
Although it was a bit out of line, it would not offend Emperor Zhou's taboo over this trivial matter.
With just this little armor, if the military commander is really disobedient, the Imperial Guards can put away the rebels without sending out the Royal Forest Army.
But now Emperor Zhou has labeled Wenjie as colluding with King Zhao.
In the eyes of Emperor Zhou, this matter became Wen Jie's hoarding of soldiers and armor in order to cause trouble in the future.
"Yang Qing, Li Qing, what do you think should be done about this case?!"
Although the question was posed to Yang Qingyuan and Li Xunhuan, Yang Qingyuan immediately understood what Emperor Zhou meant.
Want to kill!
But it cannot be said by Emperor Zhou! He must maintain the image of a benevolent king!
"Return to the throne! After discussing with Li Yushi, I agreed that Wen Jie is ambitious, cruel and disloyal. If he is not killed, the people will not be outraged, and if he is not killed, it will not be enough to uphold the law of the country!"
Emperor Zhou nodded, not bad!
"But..." Yang Qingyuan then changed the topic, "I believe that the treatment of the female servants in Wenjie's mansion should be carefully checked, and the guilty ones should be convicted and punished! The innocent ones should be released to show the emperor's benevolence!"
Emperor Zhou became more and more satisfied with Yang Qingyuan's approach. This not only eliminated the influence of the Wen Mansion, but such a gentle approach showed his benevolence even more than the previous emperor.
Such ministers are talents! Not only can they do things, but they can also safeguard the emperor's reputation. If you don't reuse such people, what kind of people can you reuse?!
Emperor Zhou was satisfied with his approach, and Yang Qingyuan was also determined.
The biggest hidden danger of the method he used to kill Wenjie was that it could easily implicate innocent people in the Wen family. Although these crimes could kill Wenjie, when Emperor Zhou was furious, it was also easy to anger his family members and bring disaster to innocent people.
.
This would go against Yang Qingyuan's original intention.
When writing the memorial, Yang Qingyuan had already repeatedly deduced the possible reactions of Emperor Zhou in his mind. His hard work paid off, and Yang Qingyuan succeeded!
While protecting the innocent people in the Wen family, kill Wen Jie on this crime!
Both parties are quite satisfied with the result.
As for the remaining crimes, Emperor Zhou didn't pay much attention!
Those who harm the people should be punished as well!
Emperor Zhou then turned his attention to human relations.
"This third charge is also true?!"
He was also a little curious and wanted to gossip, but he couldn't say it clearly.
"Wen Jie and his son were serving concubines, but they were having an affair. We have found out!"
Yang Qingyuan rolled his eyes inwardly, but still answered seriously on his face.
"Well..." Emperor Zhou got the answer he wanted, "Then I will write it to the cabinet tomorrow and delete it if it colludes with King Zhao and is contrary to human ethics! Add a crime of perverting the law!"
Emperor Zhou felt that Wen Jie's disorderly behavior would bring disgrace to the court, so he decided not to speak openly about it.
"I obey the decree!"
"Okay! The night is already deep! You go back and rest!"
"I resign!"
After Yang and Li saluted, they left the imperial study.
Emperor Zhou looked at the memorial in his hand, frowned slightly, and asked after a quarter of an hour.
"Yuhuatian, do you have anyone under your command who is proficient in Japanese martial arts?!"
Yuhuatian hesitated for a moment, "Long live, there are people in Xichang who are proficient in Japanese writing, but there are no people who are proficient in Japanese martial arts?!"
"Huh?!" Emperor Zhou was slightly dissatisfied.
Yu Huatian immediately added, "Long live, I heard that there are three secret agents of Tiandixuan in Hulong Villa. Among them, Duan Tianya, the number one secret agent of Tianzi, is proficient in Japanese martial arts. I can call him into the palace to identify this technique.
"
Emperor Zhou then opened his mouth and said, "I have given you my order to summon Duan Tianya of Longshan Villa to the palace immediately!"
