Chapter 1028 Conviction
"'Unexpectedly, the emperor is smart and just decided, but he is willing to be deceived by Song. People say that they don't believe it, and even though heaven warns them, they don't realize it, so that's why." Yang Jisheng, is this sentence in your memorandum?"
He Ao threw the copy of the memorial to Yang Jisheng, then silently recited a line from Yang Jisheng's memorial, and asked in a stern voice.
"I say this to remind you," Yang Jisheng defended.
"Yang Jisheng, what did I ask you, what did you answer! You just need to answer, yes or no?"
He Ao interrupted Yang Jisheng's defense and yelled loudly.
"Yes!"
Yang Jisheng looked up at He Ao, the veins on his neck were exposed.
"'Your Majesty is smart enough to say that even though Niluan knows all about the hidden evils, he has always been tolerant of Song's evil." Yang Jisheng, is this sentence what you said in your memorial?" He Ao silently recited a sentence from Yang Jisheng's memorial. , questioned Yang Jisheng again.
"You took it out of context," Yang Jisheng said angrily.
"I'm asking you, yes or no?!" He Ao interrupted Yang Jisheng again and asked sternly.
"That's what I said!"
The veins on Yang Jisheng's neck became thicker.
"'But I don't know that there are song and seedlings in the country and weeds in the city, and there are tigers in the city. One day in power will be a day's harm. Why can't the emperor give up his love for a traitor and endure the misery of millions of people." Yang Jisheng, this Is one sentence what you said in the memorandum?"
He Ao pointed out all the points that Yang Jisheng could be accused of in the memorabilia, out of context. As long as Yang Jisheng answered yes or no, He Ao would interrupt Yang Jisheng's defense and could only answer "yes", because What He Ao pointed out was indeed written in his memorial.
Seeing this, Zhu Ping'an understood what He Ao wanted to do, couldn't help clenching his fists, and sighed helplessly in his heart
What He Ao did was nothing more than "creating" evidence for conviction! Everyone is not a fool, you can see it yourself, and I believe many people can also see it.
However, this is an unfair and unfair court trial!
The judges present here are basically strict party members. They will judge the case based on the evidence. As for whether the evidence is "fabricated", they will turn a blind eye.
And I am just an observer!
have no choice!
Powerless!
It ends up being a sigh.
Zhu Ping'an could only watch helplessly and helplessly as the court trial drifted away towards the direction of the strict party, and finally went away forever, until it was time to close the case.
After the court trial, the case must always be closed, and written materials must be formed and submitted to Xiyuan, and sent to Emperor Jiajing for review.
"My lords, the trial of this case is over. Let's agree to see how this case should be settled." As the presiding judge, He Ao looked around after the court trial came to an end, and spoke to the presiding judge and the second judge. The judges at the seat said.
"Well, what Shangshu He said is true."
The officials participating in the court trial, including the Sanju Department, nodded one after another, and stood up one after another to announce their trial conclusions.
"What's there to discuss? Yang Jisheng fraudulently transmitted the prince's decree and deceived the emperor. The evidence is conclusive. He should be convicted of the crime of deceiving the prince's decree and deceiving the emperor. Both crimes should be punished. He should be hanged. Thank you. The world!"
Punishment Minister Wang Xueyi, as a loyal member of the strict party, was the first to speak first, and impatiently charged Yang Jisheng with two capital punishments.
Although Yang Jisheng's accomplices could not be interrogated this time, and King Yu could not be dragged into the water, there is no hurry. As long as Yang Jisheng's charges are confirmed, it will not be too late to interrogate the party and so on. Moreover, Mr. Yan confessed The bottom line is to convict Yang Jisheng of falsely passing on the prince's decree.
That's why Wang Xueyi jumped out so impatiently.
"I agree with what Mr. Wang said. Yang Jisheng did not get the consent of the second king, but said in the memorial, 'or ask the second king'. This is not a rumor about what the prince's decree is?! Also, Yang Jisheng criticized the Holy Majesty several times in the memorial. This is not deception. What is the king?! Therefore, I agree with what Lord Wang said, Yang Jisheng still committed the crime of deceiving the king and falsely passing the prince's decree in the memorandum, and he should be hanged according to my law!"
After Wang Xueyi spoke, an official who participated in the court trial echoed him.
"I think Yang Jisheng is also guilty of framing Shangguan! It should be punished together with the crime of deceiving the emperor and the crime of falsely passing the prince's decree!"
Then another official went a step further, accusing Yang Jisheng of framing Shangguan.
"Well, well, what Master Zhang said is true, I have ignored this crime."
Wang Xueyi nodded vigorously when he heard the words, and smiled when he looked at the official who spoke.
Then, several officials expressed his opinion, and the conclusions were the same.
However, there are still different voices.
Although there are many strict parties, not all the officials participating in the court trial are strict parties. For one thing, it is impossible for the strict party to cover every official. If so, the strict party would have been destroyed ten times by Emperor Jiajing. Jiajing Emperor is a person who is extremely stingy with power, and he indulges Yan Song only within the scope of his permission; secondly, in order to avoid suspicion, the officials participating in the court trial cannot all be strict party members.
"In my opinion, Yang Jisheng's crime of misrepresenting the prince's decree is conclusive. As for deceiving the emperor, in my opinion, Yang Jisheng is not enough."
An official hesitated for a moment, then spoke slowly.
As soon as the official opened his mouth, Wang Xueyi glared at him angrily, "Why not, Yang Jisheng himself admitted that it was written by him! Mr. Liu, you have ears too, didn't you hear it?"
As he said that, Wang Xueyi stared at the official with gloomy eyes, and opened his teeth, "Master Liu, I heard that you have sung with Yang Jisheng many times in poetry and prose, hehe, you must not be Yang Jisheng's accomplice, right? "
"How could it be! Master Wang, you don't want to spout blood!" The official who was stared at by Wang Xueyi immediately raised his neck and retorted. If Wang Xueyi splashed this basin of dirty water on him, he would jump into the Yellow River and wash it away.
Wang Xueyi sneered, hum, if you hadn’t just said that Yang Jisheng was guilty of misrepresenting the prince’s decree, if it wasn’t for the purpose of imposing a death sentence on Yang Jisheng as soon as possible and not wanting to cause trouble, otherwise I would definitely label you Yang Jisheng’s accomplice.
Just right, there was an official nearby to persuade him, Wang Xueyi took another look at the official before moving away.
Other officials expressed their views one after another, most of them were similar, or two crimes, or three crimes, but they all committed the crime of misrepresenting the prince's decree.
"Accordingly, you are a clerk, what do you think?"
He Ao turned his gaze to Shi Chaobin, the last doctor of the Ministry of Punishment who did not make a statement, and asked slowly.
Everyone's eyes turned to Shi Chaobin, especially Wang Xueyi, whose eyes were burning and threatening.
Shi Chaobin is not a strict party.
However, Wang Xueyi was not worried that there would be an accident with him, because Shi Chaobin compromised when Yang Jisheng was tortured by the court.
