Chapter 34 Chapter 3 The funniest treason case in history

However, there will always be a day when things will be exposed.It is said that one day, a merchant from Guangxi came to a place in Hunan, and he met an old scholar named Zeng Jing.The old scholar Zeng Jing set up a tea stand on the side of the road, and when the guests came, they sat and chatted together.Zeng Jing asked the merchant: Do you have any latest news to tell me?The merchant said: Yes, let me tell you, there is chaos in Beijing now, the newly enthroned emperor, he is not a good person, he poisoned his father to death, his mother was forced to death by him, he They also killed brothers and sisters, drunkenness, greed for money, and lust. In short, there are seven major sins.

After Zeng Jing heard this, she was filled with grief and indignation, and thought: This world is simply too unfair, how can such a person be an emperor?We scholars take the world as our duty, and I must overthrow this emperor.But how could a scholar like him overthrow Yongzheng without the power to restrain him? Later he heard the news that Yue Fei's twenty-seventh grandson, Yue Zhongqi, had just quelled the Great Snow Mountain Rebellion, and was a rising general of the Qing Empire, holding military power in his hands.In fact, this Yue Zhongqi was only a general in the Yongzheng Dynasty.But the information Zeng Jing obtained has been completely distorted.To what extent is it distorted?Others told Zeng Jing like this: Yue Zhongqi is the twenty-seventh grandson of Yue Fei, and Yue Fei has fought as a golden soldier all his life. To kill Yue Zhongqi, several times passed the imperial decree to lure Yue Zhongqi into Beijing to kill him, but Yue Zhongqi evaded them all.However, if this development continues, Zhongliang will eventually be harmed by the faint king, and the consequences will be disastrous.

Upon hearing this, Zeng Jing said, "I'll settle this matter."Then Zeng Jing found his student Zhang Xi and said to him: I teach you the sage's learning as a teacher, just to save the country and the people. Now is the time for us scholars to contribute to the country.You set off immediately, go to Gansu to find General Yue, and persuade him to raise troops immediately to drive away the descendants of Hamichi and Jin Wushu. So Zhang Xi sold all his houses, went to Gansu on foot, and really found Yue Zhongqi.At that time, Yue Zhongqi saw such a strange person holding such a strange letter, and her head exploded—this was really shot while lying down. I was here to lead the army and lead the general, but someone came to persuade me to rebel.

Yue Zhongqi was so frightened that she could only truthfully write a memorial to Emperor Yongzheng and report the incident. On the other hand, she arrested Zhang Xi, tortured him, and asked him what was going on.There is actually a cognitive gap between them, that is, Zhang Xi and Zeng Jing's views on power, and the relationship between Yue Zhongqi and Yongzheng are vague in cognition, which does not match reality, so the relationship between the two parties The "communication" between them is very difficult. After Yongzheng received the report, he was also extremely nervous, and immediately ordered Yue Zhongqi to find out the other party's details no matter what, and figure out how many people were against him.After receiving the imperial decree, Yue Zhongqi pretended to release Zhang Xi, and then quietly said to him: The reason why I tortured you is because the faint king of the capital keeps sending people to test me, so I suspect that you are sent by him again Yes, but after being tortured, I can now be sure that you are not a spy, and the two of us can work together to do something.

Zhang Xi got excited and said: "Since that's the case, then I'll tell you the truth. I was sent by my teacher Zeng Jing." In this way, Zhang Xi told Yue Zhongqi all the ins and outs of the matter.Yue Zhongqi immediately reported the situation, and this report triggered the first major debate in the history of the Qing Dynasty.
