    The Gongsheng students who were making trouble in front of the Penal Department Yamen were still noisy, pointing at the Penal Department gate and angrily cursing the treacherous officials. No one noticed that Yan Song, the leader of the trouble just now, had disappeared into the crowd and was dragged away by Ding Shun, a member of the Jinyi Hundred Household, to see the beauty of the world.

    When more and more Gongsheng scholars gathered in front of the yamen of the Ministry of Punishment, and the situation was completely out of control, the officials of the Ministry of Punishment were panicked. It was not common for scholars to attack the yamen of the government these days. Once it happened, it would become a huge case.  After Shang Datian heard this, the emperor often investigated and dismissed a large number of officials in order to calm the situation. Today, the Ministry of Punishment was the first to bear the brunt, so the officials on duty could not sit still.

    The front door was as noisy as a market, and there were constant curses. The majestic and thick red lacquer door in the past was covered with rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves thrown by the tribute students.  The sergeants of the Military and Horse Division of the Five Cities had already gathered outside the square of the Punishment Department Yamen, but they only watched from a distance. The Gongsheng students were all scholars with a good reputation, so the sergeants of the Military and Horse Division naturally did not dare to suppress them in the slightest.  Intimidation, unless this group of crazy scholars killed the ministers and ministers of the Ministry of Justice with knives, and it didn't matter if they threw eggs and vegetables. How could the scholars not have a bad temper?

    When the officials of the Ministry of Punishment were hiding in the Yamen and panicked, Jin Yiwei and Dongchang Fanzi had already urgently reported the matter to the palace.

    Hundreds of famous scholars attacked the Yamen of the Ministry of Justice. This matter was so serious that neither Mou Bin nor Wang Yue dared to conceal it, so they could only report it to Emperor Hongzhi.

    ***************************************************  *************

    Since the matter cannot be resolved, Du Hong may be able to find a chance to survive only by making it bigger, getting out of control, and hearing about it. This is the purpose of Qin Kan instructing Yan Song to incite Gongsheng to cause trouble.

    This purpose has obviously been achieved.

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    The Wenhua Hall of the Forbidden Palace.

    Liu Jian, Xie Qian, and Li Dongyang were sitting on the soft benches on the left side of the hall, stroking their beards and remaining silent.

    Emperor Hongzhi¡¯s face was as dark as water, with a look of dissatisfaction on his sickly face. Mou Bin and Wang Yue knelt in front of him, not daring to take a breath. They knew that His Majesty was in a very bad mood now.

    The whole world is advocating for the resurgence of the Ming Dynasty. In fact, Emperor Hongzhi was also a little confused. He used to be a little complacent, but events that happened in the past two years severely damaged his confidence, including today's events.  Hundreds of Gongsheng students made trouble.

    Emperor Hongzhi, who has always been very tolerant to scholars, did not expect that he was so kind to scholars, but there were still people who were dissatisfied with the court and him. What on earth was going on in this world?

    It was very quiet in the hall. Emperor Hongzhi looked gloomy. He was silent for a long time before slowly asking: "What's going on? In two months, the Spring Examination will be held. Why did the Gongsheng students choose to cause trouble at this time?"

    Wang Yue replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, Dongchang has found out that the Gongsheng students gathered in front of the Yamen of the Ministry of Justice because of the case of Du Hong, the prefect of Shaoxing, who killed a weaver"

    "I have heard about this case. There are all witnesses and material evidence. Du Hong can't escape the blame. What are the Gongsheng students dissatisfied with?"

    Wang Yuedao: "Your Majesty is wise, this case is an ironclad case and cannot be overturned. Those Gongsheng students are still young and were instigated by some unscrupulous people. They attacked the Ministry of Punishment without knowing the reason. It is a serious crime"

    Mou Bin had been kneeling quietly aside, and suddenly interrupted: "Your Majesty, what the Jinyi Guards found is very different from what the prince said"

    Emperor Hongzhi turned to look at him and said: "What did the Jin Yiwei find? Please report it in detail."

    "Yes, there are different opinions among the people in the capital today, but they are almost the same. Both the market and the Imperial College are saying that Du Hong was framed by someone else, and the culprit is someone else. The case originated from the Suzhou Weaving Bureau and the Zhejiang Chief Secretary. There are rumors that the two  He acted colludingly, exploited and even killed the weavers. Du Hong appealed for the people but was imprisoned. The injustice was as high as the sky and the sea"

    Wang Yue interrupted Mou Bin with a sneer and said: "In front of your majesty, Mr. Mou, please stop talking nonsense. Could a few rumors in the market become evidence to overturn the case? In this way, wouldn't our Ming Dynasty law become a decoration?"

    Mou Bin didn't even look at Wang Yue, and said coldly: "The Jinyiwei is your majesty's hawk and dog, spying and inquiring. It is the duty of the Jinyiwei to report rumors. I don't know whether it is black or white. I just do my duty to report any rumors among the people to your majesty, whether they are right or wrong."  Your Majesty will decide whether it is right or wrong."

    After hearing these words, Emperor Hongzhi's expression softened slightly, but Wang Yue's expression became increasingly gloomy.

    Mou Bin took out a leaflet from his sleeve, handed it over with both hands, and said: "Your Majesty, these are the leaflets scattered everywhere in the capital city. The causes and consequences of the case are clearly explained in it. I have ordered the Jinyi Guards to thoroughly investigate those who spread the leaflets.  , As for whether the things stated in the leaflet are true or false, we have not yet found out, and I ask your Majesty to make a judgment."

      Emperor Hongzhi took the leaflet, frowned the more he looked at it, and murmured: "It seems that this case is not as simple as it seems"

    Turning to look at the three cabinet bachelors, Emperor Hongzhi smiled and said, "I really don't understand. What do you three gentlemen think?"

    On the political affairs of the DPRK, the three university scholars were leading Chu Niu ears. They can be said that the case was broken. Liu Jian and Xie Qian did not catch them, so they handed the leaflets to Li Dongyang in an invincible way.

    People at the time said that the current imperial cabinet was called "Li Gongmou, Liu Gongjuan, Xie Gongyou Kankan." In terms of planning and analysis, Li Dongyang was much better than Liu Xie, so it was most appropriate for him to judge this case.

    Li Dongyang took the leaflet, glanced at it a few times, stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Nowadays, everyone is talking about the same thing, and I can't tell right from wrong. The origin of this case can be traced back to the Suzhou Weaving Bureau and the Zhejiang Chief Secretary. The Weaving Bureau supervised the eunuch Wang  Peng is dead, but there are still many insiders below Wang Peng, and Zhejiang Governor Cui Zeng also knows the reason. Why doesn't Your Majesty announce that these people involved in the case are coming to Beijing, and then order the factory guards to investigate the truth?"

    Emperor Hongzhi nodded: "What Mr. Li said is true. I will order the Jinyi Guards to investigate Du Hong's case in detail and Dongchang to interrogate"

    "Your Majesty, I have one more thing to say" Li Dongyang's eyes flashed with unpredictable light, and he continued with a smile: "It is said that Qin Kan, the Qianhu of Jin Yiwei, is Du Hong's son-in-law, and Dongchang has quite a rift with Qin Kan. For this reason  The case is fair and impartial, and I think it is best for the factory guards to only be responsible for the investigation and not have the power to decide the case. Moreover, I feel that this case seems to be quite involved with the capital court. If you want to find out the truth, you must send a trusted minister  It¡¯s appropriate to be dedicated to investigating the matter.¡±

    Emperor Hongzhi thought for a long time, nodded slowly, and formally issued the decree.

    "The case of killing Shaoxing weavers was jointly investigated by Jin Yiwei and Dongchang. The relevant eunuchs and officials of the Suzhou Weaving Bureau, as well as Cui Zeng, the chief envoy of Zhejiang Province, came to Beijing immediately without delay. Du Hong was imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Punishment, Dali  The three law divisions of the temple and the Metropolitan Procuratorate will be tried together."
