Chapter 195 Analysis
"First, his daughter is just a concubine who succeeded Duke Ding. Whether the concubine's father is a royal relative or not has a big question. In other words, he himself cannot protect himself if he crosses the river. How can he protect you?"
"Second, you are just a puppet he has raised with money. Just kick it. You are not close to him, why should he protect you?"
"Third, the ones who have been verified can be concluded that he committed a rebellion, which is a heinous crime. There is no special reason. The emperor cannot give mercy outside the law. Even if he is merciful, at most he will change your lingchi to beheading. This is a huge favor. However, why should the emperor give you such favor? There are more people who are talented than you and have made contributions. As long as you are involved in this rebellion, think about it yourself, how many people have escaped? You may not be able to avoid it. How can you protect you?"
"Fourth, you know that he is so secret. If you live for one day, you will threaten him one day. You wish you could die and silence him. He will only push all the dialed things on you and make you a scapegoat!"
"Fifth, what's the use of him to save you? If you have such a big deal, even if the court avoids you from committing death, do you think you can continue to be your governor? I'm afraid that even a ninth-rank sesame official will not be given to you! Since you can't become an official, why should he save your life? With such great efforts to protect a useless person, will he be full? If he still wants a puppet, will he not cultivate it yourself?"
"Sixth, that is, the most important thing, this case is so big. Can it shock others if you don't kill a few? If you have such a big thing, you will be a scapegoat. Who will you kill if you don't kill? Moreover, killing a high-ranking official like you can show the court's determination to punish corruption, and the shocking effect it has is incomparable to the heart of killing others!"
"So, he will not only not save you, but will also push everything on you through relationships and recognize your sins. Only in this way can he escape, and you become a scapegoat. In addition, when it comes to treason, he will not be able to protect himself, let alone you!"
Yang Qiuchi had already thought about the joints among them. Some of the ideas came from Master Jin's previous analysis. Since he was already in mind, Yang Qiuchi said it out in one breath like a fried bean, which shocked the governor of the throne and was stunned and looked disgusted.
Yang Qiuchi slapped his armrest and stood up from the chair. He really went behind the governor Quan, bent down and asked in a low voice: "After listening to my analysis, Lord Quan, do you still think that Mi Yuanwai will save you? In addition to colluding with you with public and private affairs, he also had the serious crime of inciting grain to steal grain to cause riots among hungry people. This is a rebellion and wants to destroy the nine clans! If it is pushed to you, what will happen? Do you think there will be someone in the court to speak for you?"
The governor of Quan collapsed his whole body on the chair, closed his eyes tightly, and gasped heavily.
Yang Qiuchi knew that his psychological defense line had been completely destroyed by himself, and it was time to close the net. He whispered: "Mr. Quan, I have a clear path, and it is unknown whether it can save your life."
The governor of Quan opened his eyes suddenly, and his eyes were begging, slowly sliding down from the chair. He knelt down: "Sir, Lord Yang, please save me. I don't want to die. I still have an eighty-year-old mother in my family who needs someone to take care of me. I can't die." The kowtow was like a change of garlic, and the bluestone slabs were thudding.
Yang Qiuchi said: "Mr. Quan, you only have one way to confess. On the one hand, you must confess your own crimes truthfully and report and expose accomplices. On the other hand, if you want to report other crimes, it is best to report the crime of an official who is bigger than you. The more serious the crime you report, the greater your contribution and the higher your chances of survival. Of course, you cannot falsely accuse me for meritorious service."
"In other words, you need to find someone who is more suitable as a scapegoat than you, and as a 'chicken' who kills the chicken for monkeys to show you. Perhaps this way, you can save your life."
The governor of Quan hesitated and said, "But, can what I said work? Will others press and refuse to report?"
Yang Qiuchi knew that he needed to gain his trust now and make him believe that he would bring up his report, so that he would have hope of life and tell him. He said, "I am responsible for your case. I can guarantee you that I will report your confession and report truthfully, so that the emperor will decide whether to spare you." After a pause, he continued, "If you can confess truthfully and report and expose other people's crimes, and make a major contribution, I think the emperor will definitely consider it."
It is quite common for corruption criminals to make major contributions to death because they report and expose other people's major crimes. Moreover, once high-ranking officials like the General Administration of the Trustee, if they pull out the radish and bring out the mud, a large group of corrupt officials of all sizes will be dismissed, which will be of great significance.
Of course, a high-ranking official like him who commits a death sentence such as corruption and bribery will often become a typical example. Although he has made great contributions, he often cannot escape death. However, before he is pushed to the guillotine, his hope will not be shattered. Even if this hope is actually just a straw, he will hold it tightly.
Yang Qiuchi accurately grasped the mentality of governor Quan and gave him this straw, which made him have to say, and he had to say it. He tried every means to scrape his heart and think that it was difficult to report and expose the meritorious service. You didn't have to urge you, let alone force him. He would beg you to find you and want to bring you something that might be considered meritorious service.
After hearing Yang Qiuchi's Lushun, the governor of Quan was stunned for a while, and cried in tears, crawled on the ground, choking and speechless. Yang Qiuchi could understand the excitement of a dying person seeing hope. When he slowly recovered from his peace, he said: "Mr. Quan, if you have any physical injuries, just sit and talk."
The Jinyiwei next to him stepped forward and helped the General Manager Quan to sit on the chair, but his butt had been opened by the stick just now and could not sit down. He just now had to rely on the chair and was not sure. Yang Qiuchi asked the General Manager Jinyiwei to move a recliner and let the General Manager Quan lie on the chair and talk. This considerate made General Manager Quan cry in tears of gratitude.
Yang Qiuchi returned to the Gongtang desk and Luo Qianhu saw Yang Qiuchi come back, and quickly bowed. He waited until Yang Qiuchi sat down before he dared to sit down.
The governor Quan made Lao Gao swollen cheeks, and he was inconvenient to speak. He raised his neck and said vaguely, saying slowly, and he could hear clearly: "Mr. Yang, thank you for speaking for me. No matter whether my life can be saved, I will accept your love. I will confess truthfully."
Yang Qiuchi nodded slightly and asked, "Disaster Relief Grain was enfeoffed by you and Mi Yuanwai and Prison Tan, who colluded with him inside and outside?"
The governor Quan said: "Yes, Mr. Mi said he wanted all the disaster relief food, and he had to take all the food for both times. I was also worried that something might happen at first, but my ability to rely on my relationship with Duke Ding and his strong financial resources to clear the relationship. I can't say anything."
"After listening to Lord Yang's analysis just now, I realized that I am just a puppet of him. Over the years, he has asked me to return to the defense to raise food, whether it is embezzled or purchased at a low price, anyway, I have raised a large amount of food through various means."
"In addition to Wuchang City, he secretly built grain in the capital Chizhou, Taiping, Yangzhou, Changsha and other places, and hoarded a lot of grain. I didn't know what he wanted so much grain for at that time. I thought he was just hoarding goods and waiting for an opportunity to sell them at a high price. After listening to the adults' analysis, I realized that he was preparing military rations for future rebellion. I really didn't know that he was going to rebel, otherwise he would not help him even if he died."
Yang Qiuchi asked: "Think about it carefully, what signs of rebellion are there besides hoarding a lot of food?"
The governor of Quan said: "Although he helped to be promoted to a high-ranking official, I also helped him do a lot of things, but in order to avoid suspicion, he always gave me orders to execute them. In fact, I rarely get along with him on weekdays, so I don't know much about him."
Yang Qiuchi thought that this was right. Of course, I can't tell you about such a major rebellion, unless I want you to join the gang. Since he doesn't want you to join the gang, it means that you have seen through you that you are not a material for rebellion at all. It's good to be a gun.
Yang Qiuchi asked again: "Have you ever seen a middle-aged man with squint eyes at Mi Yuanwai's house?"
"Mid-aged man with squint eyes?" Quan Buzheng supported his upper body with his elbows, looked at Yang Qiuchi, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Did Lord Yang talk about Mr. Wang from Mi Yuanwai's family?"
"Who is Mr. Wang? Is he squinted? Where is he now?" Yang Qiuchi also supported half of his body and asked anxiously.
"Mr. Wang is a middle-aged choir with a little squinted one eye. I heard from Mi Yuanwai that he was his teacher. Mi Yuanwai has a very respectful attitude towards him. I saw him some time ago, and I have never seen him before. He is very arrogant and rarely speaks. Since he is Mi Yuanwai's teacher, he should live in Mi Mansion."
Before this, Nangong Xiong had already returned to report to Yang Qiuchi that he did not find the squinting Chinese New Year at Mi Yuanwai's house, so Yang Qiuchi said: "There is no Mi Mansion. I have sent the Jinyiwei to search. There is no such person in the Mi family."
The governor Quan said: "There are two prefectures in Wuchang City. Have you searched them?"
"What?" Yang Qiuchi asked in surprise, "There are two residences in Wuchang City?"
"Yes, Mi Yuanwai's husband is a famous shrew. Although Mi Yuanwai is a businessman and has not read a few books, he likes to pretend to be gentle and often makes friends with talented brothel women. The woman he likes to buy it and takes it as a concubine at all costs. Because his wife is fierce, she dares not leave it at home, so she built another secret building in Wuchang City, and his concubines are secretly kept in this mansion."
