《Ming Dynasty 1566》E22
Episode 22
In the profound history of Zhejiang, Hai Rui's name is like a bright pearl. His story is full of tenacity, wisdom and endless pain.His father, Hai Fu, was once the guardian of this land. However, he was poisoned by Japanese pirates, which filled Hai Rui's heart with endless grief and anger.
Hai Rui's grief was not understood by Zhao Zhenji.Zhao Zhenji put the case on hold on the grounds that Yang Jinshui was crazy and no one could verify it. He claimed that he had reported the matter to the court by express delivery 800 miles away and was waiting for the court's order.However, for Hai Rui, every day of waiting is filled with deep guilt and endless pain for his father.
Despite this, Hai Rui did not give up.He was ordered to escort military supplies to Hu Zongxian's camp. This was an arduous task, but he found hope in it.In Hu Zongxian's camp, he met Hu Zongxian, a man who made his ambition clear with poetry.He asked Hu Zongxian about the secrets of Ma Ningyuan, Chang Boxi, Zhang Zhiliang, Li Xuan and others who were executed for embezzling money for river construction.However, Hu Zongxian did not answer directly, but only told him that the case file had been submitted to the Ministry of Punishment.
However, Hai Rui did not give up.He continued his in-depth investigation and found that Zheng Michang and He Maocai ordered the Japanese chieftain Inoue Shisanro and Chun'an citizen Qi Dazhu to be executed for treason with the Japanese. This was an unjust imprisonment.Although Hu Zongxian knew that this was an unjust imprisonment, he did not pursue it to the end.Hai Rui was deeply puzzled by this. He asked Hu Zongxian why he didn't investigate to the end, but Hu Zongxian asked him if he was already investigating.
With Hai Rui's persistence, he finally found out the truth and vindicated the injustice of Qi Dazhu and others.At the same time, he also caught up with Qi Dazhu to marry the woman he saved on the battlefield, which was undoubtedly the best reward for his persistence in justice.
Zhao Zhenji's memorial brought new challenges to Hai Rui.Chen Hong, the eunuch of Bingbi, was shocked by this and asked to report it directly to Emperor Jiajing.However, Huang Jin suggested informing Lu Fang first.Lu Fang ordered Huang Jin to stabilize Emperor Jiajing, and went to the imperial prison to meet with the two witnesses of Shen Yishi's case: Gao Hanwen and Yun Niang, and told them that only silence could save their lives.
Emperor Jiajing guessed that there would be a memorial in Zhejiang, implying that Lu Fang was "emphasis on the outside and despised on the inside". Lu Fang immediately drafted an order and ordered the Jin Yiwei in Hangzhou to escort Yang Jinshui to Beijing immediately, and let Zhao Zhenji act as the agent of the Jiangnan Weaving Bureau, ordering him to spare no effort.Everything was used to raise military supplies for Hu Zongxian's southeastern front.
