Chapter Seventy-Three: Tripartite Talks
May 28, Deng County.
Everyone already knew that Li Ying, a native of Deng County who assassinated Taishi a few years ago, was originally scheduled to be beheaded in Deng County in the near future, but now everyone in Yuzhou knows about it, but for some reason he presided over the Nanyang Xinye disaster relief and grain distribution. Now the state government has issued a wanted warrant to arrest Li Ying everywhere. The people of Deng County have an extremely complicated mentality about this matter. It is said that Li Ying, who is a native of Deng County, should have actually presided over the disaster relief and grain distribution in Deng County first, but he just ran around Deng County, why is this? Now that he has heard that Li Ying is going to be arrested, it means that Li Ying is working against the Taishi, and the Taishi is naturally listed as a great evil person by the people of Deng County. Therefore, in the past few days, the people have not only gathered at the gate of the county ya, but also waited in the granary of the county government to distribute grain, and even inquired about Li Ying's recent situation everywhere.
But today, there are different people on the street, they all have Jizhou accents, and they shout as they walk: "Wanted Li Ying, release Ermao quickly." Many people asked the reason, and those people spoke with their Jizhou accent and told the people that since Li Ying is wanted in the Yuzhou Prefecture now, Li Ying, who is locked up in the county jail, is fake, he is Wu Ermao, a native of Jizhou C County, just because he is very similar to Li Yingchang, they were arrested and brought to Deng County to be beheaded, and they came to seek justice for Wu Ermao.
When the people of Deng County heard the rumors, they fried the pot again, and there was one in prison, and now one is wanted, which one is true. Coupled with the people's good impression of Li Ying, everyone suggested that they go to the county government to complain. Above the market, there are many idlers themselves, and they have come up with ideas, and they can't wait to boil this pot of vinegar more sour. Therefore, the people gathered at the gate of the county government in Deng County added new demands. For a time, it was a pull that shouted to divide the grain, and it was a pull that shouted to release people, and those Jizhou people themselves were from Yan Zhao's hometown, all of them seemed brave and aggressive, while constantly beating drums and shouting grievances, while gearing up, ready at any time, rushing in to rob people.
How can the head of the county order Fu Qizheng not be big. So they asked each of them to come in and speak. However, the two sides did not agree to speak separately, and the county order believed that the people of County J should go out to the criminal department to appeal, but the people did not agree, so the county order released its words and asked the people to elect five representatives to enter the dialogue with the county order. He asked the people of Xuzhou to take out the evidence book, elect five deputies, and go to the county government meeting hall for a dialogue at the same time.
Chenshi, the county government council hall.
The representatives of the people of Deng County and the representatives of J County were elected soon. The representatives of the county government are Fu County Ling and his masters Qiao Yan and Qu Tong, the head of the capital Xing Quan, and Jia Cheng, the chief secretary of the money and grain.
The tripartite personnel sat in a triangular position, and at the beginning, the two masters verified the identity of the people's representatives. I also carefully examined the documentary evidence and guarantee materials of the people of J County. The conversation began.
The first to make a request was the people's representative, who proposed that since the neighboring counties had distributed grain in different ways, Deng County would not divide it, divide it, when it would be divided, and why.
After listening to him, the county commander said: "Recently, there has indeed been a grain distribution incident around Deng County, and Deng County has also received documents suspected of being distributed by the state government for disaster relief. However, by sending people to the state capital to verify, the state government has not issued disaster relief documents at all. Judging from the situation in Nanyang and Xinye, the announcement and the organization of grain distribution were not presided over by the county order, but by Huang Enhao, who claimed to be the new general judge of the state government. There are indeed rumors in the market that Huang Enhao is indeed Li Ying, but Huang Enhao has not been caught now, so who he is remains to be further verified.
The representative of J County then proposed that since Li Ying had been escorted to the Criminal Department, why should he be beheaded in Deng County?
The county decree said: "This is the arrangement of Shangguan, not his own opinion." ”
The representative of the people asked whether the state government had any disaster relief arrangements, and whether the people of Deng County could not accept the disaster relief.
The county decree said: "Since the imperial court intends to provide disaster relief, then it is natural to make arrangements, how can it go beyond the county government and be presided over by the state government officials themselves, which has never been heard of for a long time." ”
The representative of J County asked the county order that since Li Ying's identity in the prison was doubtful, why did he not submit it to the Criminal Department for re-verification.
The county magistrate said: "He only heard today that Li Ying's identity is suspicious, and he is willing to report it to the state capital immediately after the meeting, and report it layer by layer, please check Li Ying's identity again, and you can't wronged a good person." ”
The representative of J County asked: "Some counties in Yuzhou have already posted notices that the fugitive Li Ying is wanted, can it be proved that Li Ying is a fake in prison?"
The county order then said: "There are wanted notices from the state government posted on the street, but none of those wanted notices were posted by the county government, that is to say, it is not known who posted the notice, so how can it be determined that it must have been done by Li Ying." This incident is related to Li Ying's beheading in Deng County. Further verification is also needed. ”
Then the representative of J County proposed to go to the prison to short-sighted Li Ying, who is a prisoner in the court, and it is always okay to see his family.
The county order said that it was very difficult to do, and as for assisting in reporting to the Criminal Department for re-verification, it was possible to do it on his behalf, but this move was absolutely unsuccessful.
Those representatives of J County asked the county order to agree to the execution of the county government during the reporting and verification of the county government, even if the criminal department ordered the execution, they also asked for an extension. Since the official document said that Li Ying was to be beheaded in Deng County, it should be reasonable to let Li Ying meet the Deng County family.
When the county magistrate heard this, he discussed with several masters, and the masters thought that it was okay to let the relatives of Deng County recognize it.
Therefore, the representative of J County proposed that after the meeting of the relatives of Deng County, if Li Ying's relatives thought that it was not, then they should immediately start submitting the submission to the state government, and they could send someone to supervise whether the submission was submitted to the state government and the criminal department.
The county order had no choice but to agree.
At this point, it seems that there is no need to go on. The county magistrate had no choice but to ask them to appease the people first, and on the other hand, he arranged for someone to invite Li Ying's relatives in Deng County to come and meet.
