Chapter 163(1/2)

"Hmph! I told you not to cause trouble, not to cause trouble. Now that Wang Wenyan has been arrested and Yang Lian has been provoked, how can this be a good thing!" When Wei Zhongxian heard the news that Yang Lian was going to impeach him, it was like a bolt from the blue.

He ran rampant in the house like a donkey, waving his hands like a convulsion, and furious like a mad dog.

As he stormed off, he pointed at his godsons and grandsons and scolded them. His fingers hit Xu Xianchun's nose, and his saliva sprayed all over Xu Xianchun's face.

The twisted demeanor and lunatic-like behavior fully exposed Eunuch Wei’s mental nature of bullying the weak and fearing the strong.

The cowardly Xu Xianchun held his face high and had the air of being self-indulgent. All the godsons and grandsons in the house did not dare to express their anger. Experience has proved that confronting Eunuch Wei at this time is seeking death.

No one dared to speak, and the atmosphere in the room was eerie and scary.

Xu Xianchun felt extremely cowardly. It was Wei Zhongxian's strict order to arrest Wang Wenyan. Now that he had offended those in the Donglin Party, it was none of his business.

He didn't know what kind of confrontation he had with Yang Lian when Eunuch Wei was still called Li Jinzhong. In Wei Zhongxian's heart, the person he feared most was not his chief assistant Ye Xianggao, nor Zhao Nanxing, the idol of the Donglin Party.

But the iron warrior Yang Lian, the scolding outside the Qianqing Palace, left a deep impression on him. It was so profound that Wei Zhongxian, who was now in control of Dongchang and Jinyiwei, could not help but see Yang Lian.

Feeling guilty.

"Tell me, what should we do now?"

After losing his temper, Wei Zhongxian said the lines he often said. After all, my brother's education is limited. If he wants to fight with these scholars, he has to come up with ideas from his subordinates.

Cui Chengxiu didn't speak, and lowered his head to study the floor tiles. Usually he was the one doing the talking at this time. Ni Wenhuan, Tian Ji, and Li Kuilong didn't speak either. Those who usually came up with ideas didn't speak. How could they be the standouts at this time today?

Wei Guanghui wanted to speak, but was affected by the strange atmosphere and swallowed his words when they reached his lips.

"You're mute? You usually have thousands of clever tricks and all kinds of skills. What's wrong today? You're just talking!" When no one spoke, Eunuch Wei was completely furious.

Damn, you want to eat what I do and drink what I do. If you want money for money and officials for officials, why do you recruit a group of these people?

"Second Uncle, I think there is no solution for this matter yet. All we can do now is delay!" Seeing that no one was speaking, Wei Liangqing stood up. Now he is the only nephew who dares to speak out.

"Procrastinate? What procrastination?" Although it doesn't solve the problem, it is still an idea.

"It's very simple. When Yang Lian is about to go to court, he will impeach his second uncle. Then you can think of a way to prevent His Majesty from going to court in the past few days. Anyway, Lord Wanli has not been in court for more than 20 years. As long as he can't go to court for a few days,

Chao Yang Lian naturally has no choice. What if he submits the letter through an official document? Hehe!"

Wei Zhongxian's eyes lit up. If Yang Lian's memorial went through formal channels, it would eventually fall into his own hands. At that time, all he had to do was tell his best friend Wang Tigan. The ultimate fate of Yang Lian's impeachment memorial was to be sent to the furnace to be melted.

For ashes.

Yang Lian's only chance was to read out the memorial in public at the court meeting. This is why Yang Lian insisted on impeaching Wei Zhongxian when he went to court.

But if the emperor doesn't go to court, then...! Yang Lian has no way to turn to him!

"Okay! At this critical moment, our men are still reliable. We will go to the palace right now!" Wei Zhongxian walked out of the study with confidence.

He had this confidence that prevented the emperor from going to court. The reason was simple: he had an internal Yingke clan.

As long as the guest wet nurse uses some means, she will not be afraid of the emperor being disobedient.

In October, the weather in the capital was already a bit cool. In the early morning, the ground outside the palace gate was not wet with dew. A large group of officials, dressed in official uniforms, were waiting in front of the palace gate.

Yang Lian was waiting in front of the palace in his official uniform. He and Zuo Guangdou, Gao Panlong, Huang Zunsu... all had serious faces. Influenced by them, none of the officials who participated in the morning court were as cheerful as usual.

. They all look at the mouth through the nose, and the heart through the mouth, and stand with their heads down without speaking.

The Ming Dynasty was an information society, and what was said yesterday in Ye Xianggao's study has now become a legend in the capital. Even the guy with the dullest sense of smell knows what Yang Lian and the others are going to do today.

He pressed his sleeve again, which contained the extremely important bullet. As long as this bullet was read in front of the emperor, Wei Zhongxian would definitely die.

It would be useless even if the emperor tried to protect him, because every one of the twenty-four major crimes that Yang Lian was impeached for was known to everyone and was unknown to the emperor only.

In this fatal message, Yang Lian listed Wei Zhongxian's various crimes. From excluding dissidents, framing loyal people, plotting evil, and killing innocent people, it can be said that everything in the world is comprehensive, and every word is true and credible.

It can be seen from this that Wei Zhongxian is indeed a talent. In just a few years, it is not easy to do all kinds of bad things across industries and varieties.

Although Yang Lian is upright and brave, he is not a fool. The reason why he chose to carry it with him today instead of submitting a letter to the cabinet is because he knew that according to common sense, as long as this memorial is sent up, it will definitely fall into Wei Zhongxian's hands. When the time comes,

This memorial will be a piece of waste paper.

Only today, when the emperor goes to court to discuss matters and Yang Lian takes out the memorial and reads it in court, can Wei Zhongxian's crimes be exposed.

When it was time to go to court, the officials of the Ministry of Rites began to form their teams. All the officials stood in two lines, divided into civil and military groups, ready to enter the palace. The corner door next to the palace gate suddenly opened. A yellow doorman came out and walked to Zhao Nanxing, the Minister of Rites.

Bow deeply in front of you.

"Master Zhao, Your Majesty is not feeling well today and has decided to take a rest for the day."

"You'll have to wait for the day?" Zhao Nanxing's eyes shrank to the size of a needle's nose.

I thought of everything, but I didn't expect that the emperor would not go to court. The fact that Yang Lian was preparing to submit a letter had already spread a lot under his instruction! I originally thought of using public opinion to build momentum for Yang Lian. But I never expected that Wei Zhongxian would actually

I came up with this trick.

The emperor will not go to court!

What can we do? The matter of Yang Lian's letter is already known to both the government and the public. If the memorial is not handed over to the emperor today, Yang Lian may be hacked tonight, even if he is not hacked. It is very likely that Wei Zhongxian will be hacked.

Hui falsely conveyed the imperial edict and ordered Jin Yiwei to arrest Yang Lian.

At that time, the more Donglin Party rescues the more people who are trapped. Wei Zhongxian is opening a big net, waiting for all the Donglin sages.

Ye Xianggao closed his eyes in pain. He knew that Yang Lian was doomed. Zhao Nanxing stared at Ye Xianggao blankly. Now he finally understood why Ye Xianggao asked Yang Lian if there was any internal conspiracy yesterday.

Without internal response, the memorial would not have been delivered to the emperor. In fact, the emperor would not even know that there was such a memorial.

Everyone looked at Yang Lian, wanting to see what Yang Lian would do. But one day it was certain that even if Yang Lian died in front of the palace gate with a headbutt today, the emperor would not know.

Today's imperial palace is completely dominated by Wei Zhongxian and the Hakka family, and even the queen has to grit her teeth and endure it.

The tense nerves finally relaxed, and Yang Lian shook his head helplessly. After all, it was a mistake, and he never expected that the emperor would not go to court today.

Yang Lian walked to Huiji Gate and, in accordance with court practice, handed the memorial to the chamberlain.

Seeing that the matter has spread a lot, according to Wei Zhongxian's character, he can do anything. The memorial must be handed over. No matter when Wei Zhongxian sees it or whether he spits on it, he must hand it over.

The officials watched Yang Lian hand over the memorial and then left the palace. After being stunned for a moment, Zuo Guangdou, Huang Zunsu, Gao Panlong and others chased after him.

"Dog thief! Dog thief! Fucking bastard!" Yang Lian's judgment was correct. Before noon, the memorial was in Wei Zhongxian's hands. Wei Zhongxian opened it, read it, and threw it away because he didn't know how to read.

.

Wei Liangqing had no choice but to pick up the memorial on the ground and read it. Just halfway through the reading, Wei Zhongxian roared, danced and turned pale, even more exaggerated than yesterday.

After the outburst, there was silence. His hands on the table trembled involuntarily, and he didn't say a word for a long time.

He is no longer the eunuch who stood in front of Yang Lian four years ago and was trembling with scolding.

Now he controls the cabinet, six ministries, and even Dongchang and Jinyiwei. He once thought that the Ming Dynasty would have no rivals.

When Yang Lian stood in front of him again, Wei Zhongxian understood. Even though this man was helpless and had nothing to offer, he was still afraid of this man, and the fear was deep in his bones.

"Second uncle! This memorial must be suppressed!" Wei Liangqing reminded him quickly when he saw that Wei Zhongxian was silent.

"You don't have to say it!" Wei Zhongxian suddenly jumped up, took the memorial and wanted to tear it into pieces. But he put it down helplessly when he got it in his hand.

Yang Lian is the censor of Zuo Fudu. It is unrealistic not to allow him to go to court. It is also unrealistic not to allow the emperor to go to court every day.

Even if he tears this memorial into pieces now, Yang Lian will still tell the emperor exactly what happened once they meet. What awaits him then will still be shattered into pieces.

"How about arresting Yang Lian?"

"He is the Zuo Deputy Commander-in-Chief. To catch him, you need solid evidence. His Majesty will nod. Do you think he is Wang Wenyan, who is so unclean that you can find evidence just by grabbing a few pigtails?" Wei Zhongxian looked at it.

Wei Liangqing's eyes looked like he was looking at an idiot.

"Of course you can't be arrested without evidence, but you can be arrested if you have evidence!" Wei Liangqing said sadly.

"Where's the evidence? Do you have it?" Wei Zhongxian's eyes widened immediately, thinking that his nephew had found something to do with Yang Lian.

It's not easy to find Yang Lian's clues. Eunuch Wei sent people to search for several years but couldn't find him. This guy doesn't drink much, and he doesn't play with women. Seeing the public money is like seeing shit. Such a person wants to

It's really not easy to find an opportunity to impeach him.

"Of course I didn't...!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Wei Zhongxian roared again, raising his hand to slap his nephew who was making fun of him.

"But Wang Wenyan has it. As long as Wang Wenyan accuses Yang Lian of embezzlement and gets a confession, this will be the evidence. When the time comes, he will hand it over to His Majesty, and His Majesty will definitely issue an order to arrest him."

Wei Zhongxian's hand stayed in the air, and then changed its trajectory. It did not fall on Wei Liangqing's face, but on his shoulder. After lightly patting Wei Liangqing's shoulder twice, Wei Zhongxian nodded.

"I can still delay His Majesty for three days and tell Xu Xianchun that I don't care what method he uses to get Wang Wenyan's confession for me. If I can't get it within three days...!"

"promise!"

Although Wang Wenyan was imprisoned, he did not suffer any harm in prison because of his super power. He just lay on the straw and slept all day long.

Every day's food is brought in from outside by family members. The food standard is better than that of the jailers, which makes the prisoners who eat bran-thick vegetables extremely envious.

Soon the good days came to an end. Xu Xianchun's face was so gloomy that he could almost drip with water. Cui Yingyuan beside him was even more furious. Before the jailer could take action, he came over in person, grabbed Wang Wenyan's collar and dragged him out.

"Master Cui, what are you doing? What are you doing?" Wang Wenyan shouted while struggling hard.

But this is a prison, if you obey those words, no one will care about you even if you scream.

After being carried into a cell, Cui Yingyuan raised his foot and kicked Wang Wenyan in.

Before Wang Wenyan could recover, two men with fierce looks picked him up and tied him to a cross like Jesus.

"Wang Wenyan, I heard that you have also been in prison. You should know the rules here. Let me tell you something here. These are the instruments of torture created by me!"
