Chapter 131

"In the 15th year of Zhengde, the situation began to stabilize, and the rebels all over the country almost disappeared."

"And in this year, under the leadership of the chief minister of the cabinet, Yang Tinghe, a group of ministers filed a petition to request a review of Zhu Chenhao's treason case."

"Why is there talk of review here? Because when Wang Shouren captured Zhu Chenhao last year, Zhu Houzhao ordered that Zhu Chenhao be deposed as a commoner and released."

"Attention, Zhu Houzhao did not discuss this move with the cabinet at that time, so the cabinet quickly proposed a review."

"As for why Zhu Houzhao ordered Zhu Chenhao to be released, there are many opinions. The only possibility is that Zhu Houzhao at that time may have considered the face of the royal family."

"Then what is the basis for the cabinet to propose a review? It is said that Zhu Chenhao rebelled and killed more than 500 court officials, large and small, in Jiangxi. It is not worth letting him go like this!"

"But what was Zhu Houzhao's reaction when he heard the proposal of review? Of course it was a headache, because in his opinion, the matter was over long ago, and now that he is bringing it up again, isn't he just looking for trouble?"

"But the cabinet was under too much pressure, and Zhu Houzhao couldn't ignore it. In the end, he called Yang Tinghe and said, what do you think should be done with Zhu Chenhao?"

"At that time, Yang Tinghe said without even thinking about it. Since it is a retrial, then he will be convicted after the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple have completed the retrial."

"Actually, the implication of Yang Tinghe is that I can't give you a clear answer now, for fear of giving Zhu Chenhao a lighter sentence!"

"Of course, Zhu Houzhao also understood what he meant, but he couldn't refute it. Why? Because what Yang Tinghe said was following judicial procedures, and there was nothing wrong with it."

"Hearing this, Zhu Houzhao finally figured it out. The people in Yang Tinghe's cabinet just want to kill Zhu Chenhao."

"Therefore, Zhu Houzhao had no choice but to agree to the cabinet's request and start a review of the case of King Ning Zhu Chenhao's rebellion."

"At the end of the year, the investigation results of the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple came out, listing seven major crimes for King Ning Zhu Chenhao!"

"As for the seven major crimes, let's not go into details. Anyway, the criminal department finally convicted Zhu Chenhao of the crime of capital punishment."

"After the conviction, the cabinet asked Zhu Houzhao to issue an order to arrest Zhu Chenhao, who has been a commoner for more than a year. At this point, Zhu Houzhao had no choice but to issue an order to send Jin Yiwei to arrest Zhu Chenhao."

"In the end, Zhu Chenhao was brought back to the capital by Jin Yiwei, and began to interrogate him. However, the problem appeared again. No matter how the trial was, this Zhu Chenhao just refused to plead guilty!"

"The reason for this situation is that Zhu Chenhao was afraid that if he pleaded guilty, the cabinet would kill his whole family, so he didn't plead guilty!"

"But the Ministry of Criminal Justice is not a charitable organization. If you recognize it, you recognize it. If you say that you, Zhu Chenhao, are guilty, you are guilty! You still want to negotiate terms?"

"In this way, Zhu Chenhao was imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment for three months. In these three months, the Ministry of Punishment interrogated him countless times, but he refused to plead guilty!"

"Because the time span of the interrogation is too long, from the end of Zhengde [-]th to the beginning of Zhengde [-]th, this matter has not yet come to a conclusion."

"In the end, the cabinet really couldn't stand it any longer, so they sent people to the Ministry of Punishment to urge the Ministry of Punishment to interrogate quickly. After the interrogation, Zhu Chenhao and his family can be executed."

"But at that time, the Ministry of Criminal Justice was not an institution that tortured and recruited, but was very adhering to the judicial system. If Zhu Chenhao did not plead guilty, hey, the Ministry of Criminal Justice could not execute Zhu Chenhao's death sentence."

"Generally speaking, if the Ministry of Criminal Justice convicts the prisoner, there is basically nothing to do. If the prisoner continues to fight, it is meaningless."

"However! If the prisoner refuses to plead guilty, according to the judicial interpretation at the time, it may be that the judicial agency made a mistake in the investigation, which caused the prisoner to be wronged, so he refused to plead guilty."

"Then when this happens, the judiciary should review the case again, and investigate the case in a fair and honest manner, and there must be no unjust, false or wrongly decided cases."

"But the crime committed by Zhu Chenhao is obvious to all people in the world. Why is there a review? There is no need for a review!"

"The Ministry of Criminal Justice also understood at the time that the reason why Zhu Chenhao did not plead guilty was because he did not want to implicate his wife and children."

"So, as long as Zhu Chenhao's concern is not resolved, it is impossible for him to plead guilty. There is no other way. The Ministry of Punishment has no choice but to report this situation to the cabinet."

"At that time, the cabinet had a lot of things to do. When the cabinet members saw the memorial presented by the Ministry of Punishment, half a month had passed."

"Because Yang Tinghe stood up and said this matter at the beginning, the cabinet members transferred this memorial to Yang Tinghe."

"After Yang Tinghe saw it, he realized that what should have been done last year hadn't been done this year. He was quite angry at that time."

"However, considering that the Ministry of Punishment might really have no other way to come to the cabinet, but Yang Tinghe was busy with other things at the time, and this matter involved a lot, so Yang Tinghe finally decided to send this memorial to Zhu Houzhao."

"In a blink of an eye, the memorial was in Zhu Houzhao's hands. Where was Zhu Houzhao at that time? That's right, in the leopard room."

"Thanks to the fact that he recruited a model worker like Yang Tinghe, Zhu Houzhao didn't need to solve many things in person, otherwise he would have no chance to play here in the Leopard Room."

"After Zhu Hou took care of the memorial, he quickly determined the root cause of the matter."

"Because Zhu Chenhao was concerned about his wife, children, and children, he did not plead guilty to life or death. If he did not plead guilty, the Ministry of Criminal Justice could not execute the death penalty against him. This is the reason."

"There were three choices left to Zhu Houzhao at that time. One was to ignore Sanqi 21 and directly execute Zhu Chenhao and his family. In this way, there would be no worries."

"The second one is to release Zhu Chenhao's wife and children, then Zhu Chenhao will plead guilty, and the matter will be resolved?"

"As for the third one, it is to dismiss the memorial to the cabinet and let the cabinet resolve it by itself."

"Thus Zhu Houzhao looked at these three options, and still felt that the second option was more humane, so he decreed that Zhu Chenhao's wife and children should be released."

"Soon, the Ministry of Criminal Justice really released Zhu Chenhao's wife and children, so Zhu Chenhao was very excited when he learned about this."

"Then the Ministry of Criminal Justice had another trial. Hey, this time, Zhu Chenhao really pleaded guilty! Not long after, Zhu Chenhao was executed."
