.,

Wang Shouren protected Fang Jifan all the way back to Beijing.

Almost no contact with outsiders.

But within half a day after he returned to Beijing, he was able to find out the real culprit.

It's hard to believe.

It is inevitable that some people will think that Wang Shouren is grandstanding.

Even Liu Huiwen just smiled and acted very calmly.

Wang Shouren didn't care about everyone's eyes at all, he glanced at his mentor, and then said: "Your Majesty, if things like assassination are done in a non-secret manner, it will be very easy to show flaws."

"But just..." He looked very calm: "The mastermind behind this assassin is not good at this. The so-called interlacing is like a mountain. This person is full of lies everywhere, and there are many arrangements, which can be called ridiculous. Therefore, to arrest such a It’s too easy for the real culprit.”

Emperor Hongzhi was speechless for a moment.

Fang Jifan's face was calm.

To be honest, Wang Shouren's tone was a bit loud.

Make it look like you, Wang Shouren, are very professional.

But...he seemed really professional.

One specialty and many abilities, it is still the same as being a teacher.

All the officials held their breath and looked straight at Wang Shouren, with different thoughts.

Emperor Hongzhi looked at the case and said, "Is that so? If that's the case, let me explain it in detail, and I will listen with all my ears."

Wang Shouren quickly said: "But any real expert must have planned his actions in advance. However, judging from the many details of this assassination, the assassination this time seems to be extremely hasty, so that even the whereabouts of the mentor cannot be accurately grasped." , it can be seen that they are just acting temporarily, and... the people who act are just a group of thieves."

After hearing this, Emperor Hongzhi nodded secretly, feeling quite reasonable.

People's impressions of imperial criminals are often of heinous crimes, so they speculate in the deepest part, as if such a person, if he dares to have such courage, must... also have great abilities.

But Wang Shouren only downplayed it, which exposed this mentality.

"Thus, the minister was thinking, since they acted hastily, then... who are the people they hired?"

Emperor Hongzhi frowned, unable to answer for a while.

Wang Shouren said: "This is very easy to guess. If you think about it... it must be a local. Otherwise, after the arson, the officers and servants in Nantong Prefecture will react immediately, and they will block the gates of Nantong Prefecture and people entering the city. Sluice gate, arrest the real culprit, when the time comes...As long as the search is door-to-door, all those out-of-towners who are different will become suspects. Only the locals, relatively speaking, are the safest. This, behind the scenes The messenger should be clear in his heart."

Following this line of thought, Emperor Hongzhi nodded secretly again.

I saw Wang Shouren said again: "If you want to understand this section, it is actually very simple. If you are from Nantong Prefecture, you must also have the courage to dare to take such a risk and commit such a serious crime, then... these people will be killed." Extraordinary, and dare to take risks for money."

Emperor Hongzhi narrowed his eyes and said, "A local bandit?"

Wang Shouren shook his head, smiled and said: "It shouldn't be, because... I have already said that the person behind the scenes is not careful. Ignorance, I just feel that this is the best time to assassinate my teacher, if I miss it, I will never have another chance. This person... usually does not make friends with gangsters, how can he contact gangsters in a hurry now?"

To do such a big thing, you must first have mutual trust.

Without mutual trust, you just told people about your plan, and they ran to Fang Jifan to report the news and go to collect the reward. Isn't this courting death?

Emperor Hongzhi looked puzzled.

Seems to make sense.

A person who has never met gangsters, does he dare to trust these people? Since he didn't dare, then who was the dead man he temporarily recruited.

"These people, first of all, must be outlaws, and secondly, they must be easy to be manipulated by others. After thinking about it, I think there are really such people in Nantong Prefecture."

Emperor Hongzhi frowned.

"Who is it?" Emperor Hongzhi asked curiously.

"Salt!" Wang Shouren said: "In order to protect the official salt, the imperial court specially set up salt, but this salt is a profiteering thing. It has always been guarded and stolen. If you talk about bold and reckless, there is no one in this world except in the mountains. In addition to the thieves who fell into the grass, there are those guards who steal the salt. The official salt they guard is actually a mountain of gold and silver. Unceasingly, the imperial court has severely cracked down on this, but these people still dare to steal salt. Therefore, although these people are wearing official clothes, they are in fact no different from thieves. They put their heads on their belts and lick Blood. I have always thought that the mastermind behind the scenes is not a rebel or a traitor, but the person he can use is the person he can control, and Yan Ding is the easiest to control, because their ancestors all They are military households in Weizhong, and their wives and children are also in the army, but they are courageous and ruthless, as long as the superior threatens them, they dare not refuse."

Emperor Hongzhi gasped.

In fact, no one thought that it was actually Daming's official army who acted.

In this way, it can actually be explained. After the incident, Nantong Prefecture closed the city gates, blocked the access to waterways, searched for thieves everywhere, and factory guards also appeared everywhere, but their targets were many.

It's those outlaws in the past, how could they think that the real murderer is hiding in the army.

This is actually... nothing more than a blind spot in the temple.

Even Emperor Hongzhi, as well as the princes of the court, would never know that there would be such a team in Nantong Prefecture.

But Wang Shouren's difference is that he has read thousands of books and traveled thousands of miles. He has a deep understanding of the three religions and nine streams, and different groups of people.

At this time, the smile on Liu Huiwen's face finally began to gradually disappear.

And Wang Shouren continued: "Follow this line of thought and look down, then everything will be easy. When the minister and his mentor arrived at the Ningbo Shuizhai, they ordered someone to use a fast horse to write a letter to the Zhizhou of Nantong Prefecture, and asked him to secretly write a letter." After this investigation, it was immediately found that there were a dozen or so salt workers who happened not to be in the camp at the time, and claimed to the outside world that they were escorting several trucks of salt to the canal for loading and unloading. , There is no record of official salt handover at all. The magistrate of Nantong Prefecture had found out their details seven or eight days ago, first secretly controlled their family members, and then arrested them. Then, these people confessed and confessed. They are ordered to act by the Judiciary and the Judicial Officer."

"As for the case of the salt class prosecutor, it seems that the situation is over, but there is no need to use torture, so he confessed to the real mastermind behind the scenes."

"Who is it!" Emperor Hongzhi's face was livid, and his tone was urgent.

It turned out to be an official appointed by the imperial court, and the person who might be involved was actually in the temple.

Emperor Hongzhi subconsciously came up, his face was cold.

Wang Shouren looked around, only remained silent for a moment, and then said: "Because this is a big matter, the magistrate of Nantong Prefecture and the minister did not dare to disclose it easily in advance. He followed the minister's train of thought and secretly investigated the case in Nantong Prefecture. It happened to be at this time that they took the sea boat to go north, and when the ministers arrived in Beijing, their secret letter had already arrived in the capital, and the person revealed in the secret letter was really no small matter, this person...is... Guozijian Jijiu ...Liu Huiwen..."

hum...

There was an uproar in the hall.

As a matter of fact, for some ministers, when Wang Shouren said that the Nantong State Salt Department was involved in the matter, some people had already guessed who was behind the scenes.

This Nantong Prefecture is a thoroughfare. The salt department in this place is the fattest, and it has always been a place for some ministers in the court to compete. Therefore, don't think that the Nantong Prefecture Salt Promotion Department is just a mere fifth-rank , but it is really eye-catching.

Who doesn't know... the current nominee is the favorite student of Liu Huiwen, the Imperial Academy Jijiu.

Knew it……

Everyone looked at Liu Huiwen.

Liu Huiwen was silent, he didn't say anything.

And Emperor Hongzhi looked at Liu Huiwen in disbelief, with astonishment flashing in his eyes.

After several dynasties, Liu Huiwen has always given Emperor Hongzhi the image of a honest and elderly man.

How could he have thought that he would go so mad.

Emperor Hongzhi's first thought was whether the investigation was wrong.

But... Liu Huiwen didn't complain, he just curled up his hands and coughed desperately.

After this heart-piercing cough, Liu Huiwen panted heavily, and stood up calmly but slightly trembling. His beard and hair were all white, and every step he took seemed to be strenuous.

Immediately, he prostrated himself on the ground, and said calmly: "The old minister has served the emperor for several dynasties, and now he is getting old. When His Majesty ascended the throne, it was the most gratifying day for the old minister, because... my Ming Dynasty finally ushered in a sage." Your benevolent king, the veteran... was so relieved at that time..."

As he spoke, he raised his cloudy eyes. There was no fear in his eyes, but he had deep nostalgia for a certain good time.

"But..." He suddenly looked heartbroken: "But ten years ago, everything changed. Your Majesty no longer advocated etiquette and righteousness, and no longer yearned to be a virtuous king, but he only cares about pennies and pennies, and always puts profit first. , Over the years, the old minister has been looking at many things in the temple, really heartbroken...cough cough..."

Speaking of this, he coughed desperately again, his head drooped weakly, and his eyes were full of old tears: "These days, the old minister is thinking, how did things come to this point today, why does His Majesty listen to the villain's slander, How did His Majesty become like this... The old minister can't figure it out, and he can't figure it out. Is this interest more important than morality and shame? Those trivial knowledge are better than holy knowledge? Minister... Gradually I am old, and soon I will go to see the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty, but the old minister...doesn't accept...doesn't accept this tone."
