Chapter 11
Amnesty to the world!
This statement shocked the whole house!
The amnesty will be promulgated only when the new emperor ascends the throne, establishes the prince after the establishment of the prince, or the movement of the rooster star, and the amnesty decree should be promulgated in the court, and the ceremony should also be held in the court.
There was a courtier who wanted to admonish, but before he bowed, he was pressed on the sleeve, and the courtier turned his head to look to the side, and saw his colleague shaking his head, his eyes were meaningful.
His Majesty has opened Chrysostom, and the amnesty may not be harmful, and the case of the pension can be ......
The court official suddenly opened his hand and secretly withdrew his hand, and the thing that he wanted to admonish did not happen.
Outside the hall, the people were still silent, and Cui Yuan was already ecstatic!
The world is amnesty, and my mother is saved!
Inside the hall, Twilight Qing looked at Bu Xihuan's back, frowning slightly. In ancient times, amnesty was tantamount to extinguishing crimes, those who had not been prosecuted were no longer prosecuted, those who had already been prosecuted were withdrawn, and those who had already been punished were acquitted. She knew that the amnesty was a means for the emperor to show benevolence to win the hearts of the people, but she really did not approve of the amnesty of the world, because there were indeed wicked criminals in prison, and the release of the amnesty was harmful to the people, and it was unfair to the victims and their relatives.
At this time, listening to Bu Xihuan and said: "Fang Cai, General Yingrui once said that the scholars broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people, and I thought that this was wrong. The common people broke the law and killed one person and ten people. The nobles broke the law and harmed all the people. It seems that Li Ben, a scholar of Taihedian University, and the magistrate of Fengxian County, have corrupted the law, injured the families of border soldiers, shaken the hearts of the army and the country, and their crimes are unforgivable! Corrupt officials who break the law, although they don't see blood, are worse than the people, and the crime should be punished severely! I amnesty the world, but to be kind to the people, not to the dirty officials, but to commit the crime of stolen goods, not to forgive their sins! Ten heinous offenders, no forgiveness for their sins! Since the beginning of my dynasty, the crime of corruption for officials is the same as the ten heinous, and it will not be forgiven! ”
The wind rises, the snow flies, on this day, the fourteenth day of the eighteenth year of the Yuan Long of Daxing, the emperor announced the people in Fengxian County, Yuezhou, did not set the threshold, amnesty the world, established corrupt officials without amnesty, the heinous government, stopped the people's riot at the Yamen, the people bathed in the grace of heaven and feared by the power of heaven, knelt down and worshipped, three shouts long live.
Cui Yuan took the lead in kneeling and bowing, "My Emperor Shengming, long live!" Banzai! Hooray! ”
The ten heinous sins, rebellion, rebellion, rebellion, rebellion, disobedience, disrespect, unfilial piety, disharmony, injustice, and civil strife, my mother has not committed it, and her sins can be forgiven!
At the gate of the county ya, this sound woke up the people, and for a while there were repeated calls, kneeling down like a tide, "My emperor Shengming, long live!" Banzai! Hooray! ”
The voice came into the long street with the wind and snow, and the people who came in the distance did not know what was going on, and saw the front kneeling and chanting, and followed the kneeling and chanting, and the voice was passed into the county government in cascading, and the steps were joyful, looking up at the clouds, the sun rose in the clouds, and a snowflake stained the man's eyelashes, and melted into pearl light for a moment.
Eighteen years, this day has been waiting for eighteen years.
In the lobby, the court officials looked at the back of Bu Xihuan in surprise and buzzed and discussed.
"Majesty!" The abacus failed, and the ministers admonished one after another, "The pardon decree issued by the county government is not in line with the court system, and this matter should be discussed again in the court!" ”
The admonition was covered by the voice of the people, and its voice was sent out of the hall, but it was still sent into the ears of Bu Xihuan. Bu Xihuan looked at the people kneeling outside the yamen, did not turn around, his voice was cold, and said: "I Chrysostom Yuyan, are you Aiqing persuading me to break my trust with the people?" ”
"The ministers don't dare, Your Majesty Chrysostom said that you can't break your trust with the people, but you can't violate the court system. Since Emperor Gaozu, there has been a system of amnesty, the new emperor ascended the throne, the establishment of the prince and the Tianji Xingdong all pardoned the prisoners of the world, and the rest of the people who pardoned the world's capital sins during the celebration were reduced to exile, and those who were guilty of exile were all pardoned, and there was no system of heinous and corrupt officials. Please obey the ancestral system! ”
Even if the capital offender is reduced to exile, and all those who are guilty of exile are pardoned, it is better than a corrupt official not to be pardoned. Moreover, there are many cases involving the two pensions, and if the DPRK and China unanimously oppose it, His Majesty will not be able to investigate it. I'm afraid that General Yuan will not give up and want justice for the border soldiers, then this matter will be a little troublesome, and I'm afraid that a few scapegoats will be introduced at that time. Therefore, this matter cannot be planned in advance.
"Please follow the ancestral system!"
"Please follow the ancestral system!"
All the ministers admonished together, turned around with a smile, swept the cold and snow with their sleeves, smiled and did not distinguish between joy and anger, and said: "Gaozu has been more than 600 years old, the old system should be broken, and the new policy should be prosperous. ”
"This ......"
"What do you think?" Bu Xihuan didn't look at those who were kneeling, but only smiled and glanced at those who were standing.
Liu Huai seemed to be frightened by the mob, and since he was brought back from the rooftop, he sat on the ground like a lost soul, and there were still Yuan Xiu, Du Qing, and Ji Yan standing in the lobby.
Yuan Xiushen glanced at Bu Xihuan, knelt down and said: "The old system should be broken, the new policy should be prosperous, Your Majesty Xià Shengming!" ”
Twilight Qing also said: "Your Majesty! ”
Ji Yan looked at Bu Xihuan, only to feel that today's words of the saint were like two people in the past, and he was surprised for a while, but when he thought of the little sister at home, he had to second: "Your Majesty Xià Shengming!" ”
"This, this ......" all the ministers were shocked and could not stop, "the ancestral system is determined by the ancestors, how can it be called the old system?" I rule the country with filial piety, and His Majesty educates all the people, as an example, so ignoring the ancestral system, it is really not done by the Ming monarch! ”
When Du Qing heard this, his face immediately turned cold, the person who said this was Lie Jiuqing, who was in charge of the affairs of the princes and ethnic minorities, surnamed Fan Gaoyang, and was also a person in the parliament and mission of the DPRK and China. Jiuqing is the central Zhengqing, and compared with the foreign ministers, they are all from the gate valve family. But even if the clan of the gate lord is powerful, the minister is the minister, and he blames the emperor in public, this person really does not take the emperor in his eyes.
How many such courtiers did Sheng Jing have?
If such a courtier is an upright counselor, he is just a person who is not seeking his own benefit, how difficult is it for Bu Xihuan to be in the court?
"Oh?" Bu Xihuan did not laugh angrily, he was habitually careless, and when he leaned over, his face was covered with a gloomy color, and he looked at Fan Gaoyang with a smile, not angry but also intimidating, "Don't Aiqing know that I am a faint king?" ”
Fan Gaoyang was stunned, Bu Xihuan had already laughed, turned around and walked out of the lobby, and went straight out of the county office.
At the gate of the county government, the people knelt and saw the emperor walking out slowly, and they all spontaneously got out of the way.
"My Emperor Shengming, long live! Banzai! Hooray! ”
The voice of the people shouting still exists, the heavy snow is like goose feathers, covering the long street, and the people are like a tide. I saw that the head of the crow was divided into herringbones, and there were people walking alone on the road, snowy roads, fresh clothes, and clothes hunting picturesquely.
The people turned back and looked at the man's back, and saw that he was walking slowly, but he was gradually going farther.
This day is a long day for Fengxian County, the second rank of the court was killed at night, the body was found in the early morning, the county court trial, a court official was killed and the case of two embezzlement of pension and silver was brought out, which almost caused a riot, and the emperor issued an amnesty to stop the riot.
Afterwards, what was left to the people of Fengxian was the memory of the fresh clothes on the snow road......
On this day, Du Qing and the others followed Bu Xihuan out of the county government and returned to the inn, but Fan Gaoyang and others did not dare to go out in the county office, and did not dare to come out secretly until the people were scattered, and returned to the Fushun Inn under the escort of Long Wuwei.
Yuan Xiu was unhappy because of the matter of the pension and silver, locked in the room for half a day, and at dinner time, he asked for a jar of wine from the store, and went to knock on the door of Dusk Qing with the wine jar, and no one opened the door after knocking for a long time, and the shopkeeper was stunned downstairs, and reported: "The general is looking for General Yingrui?" ”
"She hasn't taken a nap yet?" Yuan Xiu frowned and asked, feeling that something was wrong in his heart, Twilight Qing had the habit of taking a nap, but she never slept until evening, his face couldn't help but change, "Is she infected with the wind cold?" ”
I investigated the case for a morning today, and the snow and wind blew, could it be that the cold has occurred again?
Yuan Xiu was about to hit the door with the wine jar, Xiao Er scratched his head and said, "Wind cold? Didn't you? Look at the good ...... when you go out."
"Get out?" Yuan Xiu turned his head to look at the shopkeeper and asked, "Where did you go?" ”
"I don't know about this little one."
Yuan Xiu jumped from upstairs, and when he landed, he was already at the door of the lobby, lifted the curtain and walked out. At the door of the inn, two teams of pro-soldiers were standing guard, and Yuan Xiu asked, "Where did Yingrui go?" ”
"Oh, General Yingrui said that there was something wrong and went to Yang's house."
Yang?
"When did you leave?"
"As soon as I left, it was just the hour of tea."
When Yuan Xiu heard this, he strode out of the inn, walked two steps and came back, stuffed the wine jar in his arms into the arms of the soldier standing guard, and said, "Don't drink, send it back." ”
The soldiers hugged the altar, looked at the back of the man leaving, and muttered: "If you want me to drink, I won't drink it!" Who doesn't know it's water? ”
As soon as he finished muttering, he suddenly smelled the smell of wine in his arms, and he couldn't help but put his nose on the wine stopper wrapped in red silk and sniffed it, and raised his head in surprise.
Is it really wine?
Yang's family lives in the north of the city, a single courtyard, quite remote. It was evening when Twilight came, the sunset reflected the thick snow on the thatch on the courtyard wall, and there was cooking smoke in the chimney on the roof tiles.
Cui Yuanlai opened the door, and when he saw that it was Duqing, he couldn't help but be stunned.
"Tang suddenly came to visit, I hope Mo minds, I have something to say to Mrs. Cui." Twilight Road.
Cui Yuan was a little wary when he heard this, he shouldn't have been vigilant, this little general was born in the Northwest Army, different from those dog officials in the court, if she hadn't spoken out to reprimand the court officials, the people broke into the county government and killed the officials, Mo said that the death penalty of the mother is inescapable, and their family cannot escape the death penalty, this little general is actually kind to the Cui family, but as soon as the mother was pardoned and went home, she arrived at home, he was really afraid that something would happen.
"Amnesty to the world is a holy will, no one can change it, I have something else to say to Mrs. Cui." As soon as Twilight Qing looked at Cui Yuan's expression, she knew what he was thinking.
Cui Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he had just lost his manners, and hurriedly let Twilight in and invited him into the house.
Cui's family only has one main room, two side rooms, the window of the east room is half supported, but you can see that there is a study inside, and there is a stove room next to the west house, two seven or eight-year-old girls are revolving around the stove, one is burning the fire, and the other is tiptoeing to add water to the pot.
"Brother, there are guests?" The little girl who added water had a crisp voice, and her eyes were crooked like crescents when she smiled, and she looked like Kodama Snow was cute.
Twilight Qing followed the moon kill, and when the two little girls saw that it was a man, they got up and blessed themselves, and their little faces lowered slightly.
"Yuan'er, who is visiting?" At this time, Yang's voice came from the house, the voice fell, and the person had already walked out, and when he saw that it was Twilight, he was also stunned.

Science:
The Celestial Rooster Star is a two-star planet located in the brightest part of the Milky Way in the constellation Sagittarius. It has nothing to do with political affairs, but the feudal rulers cleverly linked it to amnesty to reflect the power of the Tianshou Emperor. The ancients called it the Bird, that is, the Phoenix. The phoenix is the benevolent bird in the hearts of the ancients, so when the rooster star moves, there must be amnesty.
The first is rebellion, the second is rebellion, the second is rebellion, the third is rebellion, the fourth is surrender, the fifth is evil rebellion, the sixth is unrighteousness, the seventh is disrespect, the eighth is unfilial piety, the ninth is unrighteousness, and the tenth is civil strife. Since the sin of the "Ten Evils" endangered the core of the feudal system -- monarchy, patriarchy, divine right and husband's power, since the establishment of the "Ten Evils" in the Sui Dynasty, the feudal laws of all dynasties have regarded it as a serious crime that is not forgiven, and the emperor often does not forgive the ten evils in the world, which is the origin of the "Ten Evils".
There are also historical facts that corrupt officials are not pardoned, and throughout the history of amnesty, it is rare that corrupt officials and corrupt officials are pardoned, and they are basically not pardoned.
