Uncle Er felt a little regretful when he had no meal, and it seemed that there was imperfection in the end of his life.

But he is free and easy by nature, and it doesn't matter if he doesn't have it, because he eats a lot of breakfast and doesn't make him a starving ghost.

I wondered if I could leave a few last words before the execution. If possible, I would leave a word for my poor daughter - he, the father, is sorry for her.

While he was thinking, the man had been taken out of prison and then he was taken outside a room.

There was a vague view of someone talking in the room, and the people standing outside were from the Jinyiwei.

When the second uncle was wondering what he brought this house to do, the small flag of Jinyiwei who had brought him out reported to him: "Report to Qianhu, the criminal Li Jinzhong is here!"

“Bring in!”

A man's voice came from the house, which was very loud, but it was Qianhu Tian Ergeng, the former Nangong Punishment envoy and the current Beigong Punishment commander.

"Get in!"

The captain next to the second uncle pushed him, and then he was brought in. After entering the house, the little flag pressed the second uncle on a bench.

"Two, the prisoner has been brought here, and you can be tried if you have nothing else."

Tian Ergeng's face looked a little ugly because an hour ago, the governor Liu Qiao called him over and told the Ministry of Justice that someone would come to interrogate Li Jinzhong today, and ordered him to help and cooperate without making things difficult for the people who stopped the Ministry of Justice. They should all be allowed to do so.

This made Tian Ergeng dissatisfied. He bluntly stated that the imperial prison was directly under the jurisdiction of Beizhen. There was no emperor's order in history. No one in the three judicial departments had the power to interrogate the prison prisoners. Why did he open a door for convenience for the Ministry of Justice? If outsiders knew about it, wouldn't it be that Beizhen was placed under the Ministry of Justice?

Liu Qiao said that this matter was approved by the Grand Governor and that he must obey unconditionally.

Tian Ergeng originally thought that it was Liu Qiao and the Donglin Party who had an affair and had dealt with the matter in secret. If this is the case, he could argue with reason and prevent the Ministry of Justice from interrogating, but he heard that it was the intention of Tianjin, and knew that he could not resist, he had nothing to say.

He was very anxious. There was definitely no good thing when the Ministry of Justice suddenly came to interrogate. He couldn't stop him, and Eunuch Wei couldn't come back, for fear that his father-in-law's second uncle would be in trouble.

In desperation, they had to deal with the people from the Ministry of Justice, while secretly envoking their confidants to Li Yongzhen, the East Factory and Chen Mo's office in Zuo'anmen, hoping that the two of them would find ways to prevent the Ministry of Justice from interrogating the trial after receiving the news.

...........

Two people came to the Ministry of Justice, one was Jie Xuelong, the minister of the Criminal Department, and the other was Wang Zhili, the doctor of the Ministry of Justice.

Wang Zhilu and Jie Xuelong were both from Donglin Party members. Compared with Jie Xuelong, who was transferred to the Ministry of Justice last year, Wang Zhilu is already an old Ministry of Justice. He has been in the Ministry of Justice for ten years and is proficient in torture. He is a rare talent for punishment in the Donglin Party.

Therefore, he was the presiding judge of this so that he could open Li Jinzhong's mouth as soon as possible and obtain confessions that were beneficial to the Donglin Party, so as to restore the passive situation in Donglin caused by Yang Lian's attempt to knock on the door.

A few days ago, the Ministry of Justice and the Donglin Party had done a lot of work on the case. The Jinyiwei line has basically been opened. The Grand Governor Luo Sigong clearly stated that he would not interfere with the Ministry of Justice's trial, and would write a letter to the emperor to formally hand over the case to the Ministry of Justice. Therefore, Wang Zhili and the other two can only find out the general truth of the case.

Wang Zhili was very confident in his interrogation skills. In addition, this time, Li Sancai, the founding elder of the party, personally ordered his generals, so he was determined to show his career to make progress and did his best to do his homework. He could be said to be confident.

Just as he was about to start the trial, he saw Tian Qianhu from the North Town staying in the house and not willing to go out. He couldn't help but smile and said, "Does Tian Qianhu want to listen? It seems that the Jinyiwei didn't listen to me."

"Listen to me" is the duty of the Dongchang Ancestral.

The Dongchang government offices in Beijing all sent "listening" personnel to record the big and small matters that occurred in the yamen. The three courts also had Dongchang's hearings. The case records and official documents of the three courts were sent to the imperial court to ensure that no officials concealed and tampered with the case review records.

But "listening to me" is a privilege of the East Factory, and the Jinyiwei does not have this power.

Wang Zhicai was reminding Tian Ergeng that although the Ministry of Justice interrogated the prisoners in Beizhen territory, the Jinyiwei still did not listen to this power.

"The two lords just need to judge, Tian is waiting outside."

Although Tian Ergeng was angry, his face remained silent. He turned his head and looked at the second uncle of Eunuch Wei who was confused. He sighed in his heart, left the house with his hands behind his back, and took the door up casually.

Wang Zhicai winked at Jie Xuelong, and the latter immediately understood and pointed to the stool under Li Jinzhong's butt and said, "Where can a prisoner have a seat? Just kneel down."

Hearing this, the lieutenant in the room stepped forward and took away the second uncle's stool. Then he knocked behind the second uncle's knees, and the second uncle couldn't help but kneel down to the ground.

"Li Jinzhong, you openly beat the imperial court official outside the door. Yang Lian, the chief clerk of the Hukou Department, was furious and put you in the imperial prison. Now the Ministry of Justice comes to investigate you according to the law. Do you have any doubts?"

Wang Zhicai was the chief judge, and after sitting down, he began to question.

Jie Xuelong sat on his side, staring at his second uncle intently.

Another bookkeeper in the house was picking up a pen to record.

"Oh, it's from the Ministry of Justice."

The second uncle raised his head and looked at the two officials of the Ministry of Justice in front of him, and thought to himself that it was not to come to kill him, but to examine him.

But, what's there to be reviewed?

Of course, a hero does things one by one. Do you think our family can still bite others?

When the second uncle decided to kill Yang Lian that day, he had already made up his mind to die, so he ignored the people from the Ministry of Justice. Even if the young master and the emperor came to examine him, he would have been determined to die.

"Say, who told you to do this!"

Seeing that the second uncle was loyal and honest, Wang Zhicai thought he was scared and slapped the gavel "trumpet" he brought to the table.

Uncle Er has done everything he has to behead him, how can he scare this gavel?

The old man looked up at the two officials who were reviewing him. Their pretentious appearance made him a little funny, and he said, "Haha": "No one instructed me, everything was done by myself."

"No one instructed you, why did you commit crimes in front of the Great Sect? And why did you commit crimes against Yang Lian alone!" Jie Xuelong shouted angrily.

The second uncle opened his mouth and retracted his head. He seemed to be wondering if he could say something.

Wang Zhicai reconciled Xuelong and was excited when he saw him: It seems that Li Jinzhong is indeed a ghost!

"Li Jinzhong, if you come to the truth, maybe I will plead with Your Majesty and spare your life..." Wang Zhicai knew that the second uncle was just a group of people in the East Palace, and most of them were afraid of death, so he pleaded with the emperor to spare his uncle and could tempt him to confess.

Jie Xuelong was also helping him, and the two of them were all thinking about the second uncle. If you don’t call the truth, you will die for the rest of the person for no reason. Unfortunately, you are wronged.
