The ghost pawn heard Liu Zhi's name, hurriedly ran in, and ran out again after a while, shouting: "Judge Guan, you have won the jackpot!

"What?" said Kantaka, a little incredulous. Shang Ying has rarely personally tried the new dead ghosts, is the last one Liu Ill or who is coming? How can Liu Zhi let Shang Jun personally interrogate.

The ghost pawn said affirmatively: "Shang Jun personally interrogated, I have watched it three times, that's right!"

Guan Gao paused for a moment before asking again, "How long has it been since Shang Jun personally interrogated the living soul?"

The ghost pawn shook his head and said, "I can't remember, Shang Jun is the first judge of the Judge's Mansion, although he is the name of the judge, he is actually not responsible for the specific trial matters, and he will only personally participate in the trial when he is interested." ”

Guan Gao couldn't understand where Liu Zhi attracted Shang Ying's attention, and looked at Liu Zhi's sides carefully, but he didn't see anything different.

The ghost pawn urged: "Judge Guan, let's send it in quickly, don't let Shang Jun wait for a long time." ”

Guan Gao hurriedly trotted in with someone, and the footsteps of the two ghost pawns carrying Liu Zhi were a little chaotic for a while, and they fell to the ground idlely. Liu Zhi was shaken a little dizzy and retched twice. Guan Gao remembered that Liu Zhi was still tied, and hurriedly put him down from the stick and untied the ropes tied to his hands and feet. The other judges didn't care, and they didn't have any opinion on his little action. But Shang Jun... , it's better to untie it early, so as not to be criticized.

Guan Gaotian is not afraid of the earth, and the emperor dares to try to kill him if he doesn't like it! But he is afraid of Shang Jun, strictly speaking, it is a kind of awe. Fear the law of Shang Ying, and fear the strictness of Shang Ying. It's just that there is too much awe in my heart, which leads to a little bit of fear!

Guan Gao slapped him twice on the chest, that's right! He wasn't afraid of Shang Jun, but he was too in awe of Shang Jun.

Knocked lightly on the door of the public house, and whispered: "Luoyang Chenghuang Mansion Judge Guan Gao, lead the emperor of the Han Dynasty Liu Zhi to the judge's mansion to judge!"

"Come in. ”

Shang Ying's voice came from the public room, Guan Gao straightened his clothes, and confirmed that there was not the slightest distraction, then he pushed open the door and walked in with Liu Zhi.

He bowed to Shang Ying, who was sitting behind the table, his sleeves almost touching the ground, and the etiquette was impeccable. Said: "Guan Gao see Shang Jun, Liu Zhi has already brought it, please Shang Jun to decide!"

Shang Ying nodded and said, "Okay, you go down." ”

Guan Gao saluted again and said, "The subordinates retire." ”

Shang Ying didn't speak again, Guan Gao slowly retreated to the door and closed the door. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief, Shang Jun's name was too big, and the sense of oppression was too great, so it was still comfortable to stay outside. Guan Gao took a few more deep breaths before running back with the ghost pawn, there are still many things to do in the world. If it weren't for Liu Zhi being the emperor, there was really no need to take someone to send him off alone. When an emperor dies, I don't know how much time it will take.

Liu Zhi stood in the room, his hands hanging down at his sides, his head slightly lowered, and he did not look directly at Shang Ying. Guan Gao's caution was in his eyes, after all, he was the emperor who killed Liang Ji, so he was not stupid.

Shang Ying looked at Liu Zhi's life, he was almost a puppet in the first ten years, and he didn't have any decisions of his own, so he didn't care about merit or demerit. After killing Liang Ji later, he let go a lot. There may be some problems in personal morality, but if it is harmful to people's livelihood, it is to sell official positions. But the reason for this is not because the country's finances have no money, and they can't do anything without money, disaster relief, people's livelihood... None of them are allowed to use money. It's not that Liu Che has never done anything about selling officials, and this kind of thing must also be considered from the reasons.

There are more than 5,000 concubines, which is a bit problematic, but there are only a few who really involve merit and demerits, and they are not to the extent of going to hell.

Allowing the eunuchs to take down a lot of scholars and doctors, and the fact that political struggles are included in the evaluation of merit and demerits, it is still necessary to give deep consideration. Eunuchs interfered in politics, and there was an example of Zhao Gao in the pre-Qin period, but the Han Dynasty has always been relatively strict in defense. It was only since Liu Zhao that the eunuchs really participated in the top power field. Liu Zhao and Liu Zhi both followed the power of the eunuchs to bring down the ministers, but unfortunately Liu Zhi did not have Liu Zhao's means and failed to restrict the eunuchs who were released from going back......

Shang Ying calculated for a long time before he decided on Liu Zhi's merits, and he almost passed the middle test, and almost fell into the inferior test. Liu Zhi was a little worse in the two assessment items, and was finally determined to be an inferior exam, and his average test merit has to be said to be his luck.

Throw the bamboo slip into the brazier and wait for Yan Jundian to reply. The price of paper is still a little too high to really be popularized. I heard that Yan Jun got Cai Lun over, and I don't know if there is any new progress. It is still not very convenient to engrave on bamboo slips.

Watching the bamboo slips turn into ashes in the brazier, he said to Liu Zhi: "Liu Zhi, are you the emperor supported by Liang Yan and Liang Ji?"

Liu Zhi replied respectfully: "Back to my lordship, I was set up for the brothers and sisters of the Empress Dowager Liang. ”

Shang Ying pondered for a moment and asked, "Do you hate the Liang brothers and sisters?"

Liu Zhi shook his head first, then nodded again, and said, "I don't hate Empress Dowager Liang, but I hate Liang Ji deeply." ”

"Oh! Why?"

"Empress Dowager Liang made me the emperor, although there are many restrictions on me, but she always has a respect. When he was dying, he issued an edict to return to power. A little grudge, that's it. And Liang Ji, as a minister, does not think about loyalty, flies high, and repeatedly commits crimes. It is even more a disaster for the country, so that the country's finances are empty, if it is not for Liang Ji, why is the Han so empty. ”

After listening to Liu Zhi's words, Shang Ying was a little impressed by him. It doesn't look like a ridiculous emperor in his words, but why do those ridiculous things?

Shang Ying asked again: "Listening to what you said, you are not an emperor without ideas, since you know that the country's finances are empty, why do you still have to take more than 5,000 concubines and raise so many concubines, doesn't it cost money?"

Liu Zhi smiled bitterly: "I originally wanted to follow the example of Emperor Xiaowu and sell some inconsequential officials to ease the financial tension." Unexpectedly, natural disasters continued, and the money obtained was only a drop in the bucket for disaster relief. Since you can't go back to heaven, why don't you live happily!"

Shang Ying understood Liu Zhi's thinking a little, it was very simple, when he felt that the country was saved, he tossed a few times with all his strength to try, and if he felt that the country was not saved, then he would break the jar and break it. There is a taste of "the husband is not born to eat, and death is to cook five tripods", if such a character is placed on the common people, he can also make a career, but it is not very suitable for the emperor. can obviously be a good emperor, but now he can only stink for 10,000 years.

The ashes in the brazier were swept up by a sudden wind, gathered together and floated in front of Shang Ying, turning into the judgment book he had burned to the Yan Jundian before, the difference was that a large seal had been stamped underneath.

Shang Ying read Yan Jundian's reply and said to Liu Zhi: "You are also a pity person, you originally hoped to be the second Liu Zhao, but now you have become another Liu Xin." ”

Liu Zhi pressed his head very low, and he couldn't see his expression clearly.

Shang Ying said again: "Your trial decision has been made, stay in the underworld, and reincarnate after the end of your life." How do you want the underworld to settle you? Do you send you to meet your ancestors and ancestors, or do you want to meet your father Liu Yi? Actually, there is no difference, they are all in the same city now. If you have other ideas, you can also talk to me and I will arrange them at my discretion. ”

Liu Zhi pondered for a while and said: "Let's go and see the ancestors and ancestors, although the foundation of the world is no longer the old, but we must always explain to the previous emperors." ”

Shang Ying nodded, he admired Liu Zhi's decision, he still had the responsibility he should have, and he didn't shirk it because of fear.

He wrote a handwritten letter to Liu Bang, and said to Liu Zhi: "Later, you follow the ghost pawn to wait at the gate of the judge's mansion, and your ancestors will come to pick you up." In the underworld, all ghosts are equal, and there is no difference in class. You can do it yourself, and live a good life in the underworld. ”

Liu Zhiying got down and walked out with the ghost pawn, thinking about Shang Ying's words in his heart, all ghosts are equal, and there is no difference between classes and generations? What does this mean? Why did the judge tell himself such two sentences, which seemed to have some deep meaning.

The ghost pawn took him to the door of the judge's mansion and said to him: "The people of your old Liu family live far away, and they come late. You wait patiently, and they will take you away when they arrive. Things related to the underworld will also be introduced to you. In the underworld, as long as you don't violate the law, you can do anything. ”

Liu Zhishi saluted and said: "Thank you for your hard work." ”

The errand officer returned the salute and went back to duty, although Liu Zhi was the emperor, he was not worthy of his differential treatment. Emperor, it's not one or two who have died over the years, so it's not unusual to see a lot.

At night, the Judge's Mansion was still brightly lit. Not a few judges came out of it, and some time ago, Shang Ying made an initiative to call on the judges to live in the official house collectively. This call was echoed by many judges, albeit with bitter faces......

Liu Zhi couldn't help but shake his body, the first day he died, he was not very suitable for life in the underworld. Although I don't feel cold, I still can't change my habits when I was in the world.

All night until dawn, no one came......

Another day has passed...... Still no one came.

Liu Zhi waited at the door of the judge's mansion for three days, and he didn't dare to leave, for fear of missing the person who came to greet him.

I really felt a little tired today, so I simply borrowed a straw mat from the ghost guard at the door, and began to take a nap by leaning against the corner of the judge's mansion. Anyway, there are few ghosts who know that they are emperors, and there is nothing to care about in terms of image. As for enjoying on... , death is dead, what else do you want to enjoy!

In a daze, I felt someone tapping me on the shoulder. I moved my eyelids, and in front of me was a middle-aged man's greasy face, not as handsome as himself! This was Liu Zhi's first thought!

The second thought is, who is this greasy middle-aged man in front of you?

Liu Hu pursed his lips and asked, "You are Liu Zhi?"

Liu Zhi nodded and said, "Are you?"

"I am Emperor Liu Hu of Xiao'an, and I have come to pick you up on the order of Emperor Taizu Gao. ”

Liu Zhi hurriedly jumped up from the ground and said, "Liu Zhi has seen Emperor Xiao'an!"

Liu Hu was noncommittal and said, "Let's go." ”

Liu Zhi returned the straw mat and followed Liu Hu into the carriage. Liu Hu went directly into the carriage, leaned his body to the side, poked his head out, and said, "Drive, I'll show you the way!"

Liu Zhi pointed to himself and asked suspiciously: "I, I'm in a car?"

Liu Hu picked his eyelids and said, "Is it difficult for me to catch up?"

Liu Zhi stopped talking, and sat silently on the wheel, the face of his predecessors still had to be given, after all, his emperor position was also picked up from others.

The carriage walked very slowly, and the slow ones were not as fast as the ghosts on either side. It was already two hours after leaving Yanjun City, and Liu Hu saw that Liu Zhi was still in such a hurry, so he said: "It's already out of the city, hurry up, run all the way north along the road, and call me again when you see a grassland!"

After speaking, I closed my eyes and breathed, and I always had to run one trip after another to pick up people, which was too tiring.

Time was only about three breaths, and Liu Hu was lying on the wasteland on the side of the road, gnawing on a few weeds in his mouth. Liu Zhi was thrown farther than him, looking up at the sun, looking dead and loveless.

The carriage flipped on its side on the ground, leaving long marks. The horses also fell upside down on the ground, wailing in pain.

Liu Hu slowly got up from the ground, spit out a few mouthfuls, and scolded Liu Zhi loudly: "You grandson, don't you know how to catch the car?"

Liu Zhi didn't say a word, and looked at the sun by himself. The sun is so good today......!
