Chapter 305: Secretly calculated

When the verdict came down, the Shangqing Court knew that they had been pitted by the Lin'an Mansion, and they stabbed the hornet's nest.

There is only one reason why the Lin'an Mansion transferred the case to the Shangqing Yuan without trial: to avoid trouble.

It turned out that the case of the old woman of the Chang family beating her daughter-in-law to death has been spread in the streets, and a beautiful little woman who died innocently and tragically is always easy to arouse the sympathy of others. In this case, the mother-in-law was imprisoned and the son lost his wife. The grandson lost his mother, the innocent little woman died tragically, and the initiator of all this was Simon Yi, who was at large.

Whether it's talking to her mother-in-law, or sympathizing with her daughter-in-law's suffering. , I don't hate this person, but in this murder case, although his role is disgraceful, he does not need to bear any legal responsibility.

Now, Mrs. Cheng's mortuary is at home, and she has not passed the first seven. He actually went to the door to force debts with all his conscience, and fought with Chang Lin in front of the spirit of the deceased, Chang Zhiyuan, a boy from the Chang family, shot angrily and used his mother's spiritual position to smash him to death, in the eyes of the people. This is retribution.

Chang Zhiyuan's mother was killed by Ximen Yi, and now the government is going to kill her son again, and the three generations of the Chang family, all of whom were imprisoned in this case, is there justice in this world?

The people of Daqi still have a little bit of fierceness in their bones, and Tian Qiniang has often mobilized the masses to fight bureaucrats over the years, and the people really don't have much awe for the officials. So, the people in the market first gathered together and were inexplicably angry, and there was a person at the head of the fire who took the lead, and everyone called Bainuo. organized and rushed to the imperial envoy's platform to avenge the grievances of the Chang family boy.

What is the Legation Platform for?

One of their important duties is to impeach the officials.

Officials write debriefing reports. It is to write about how many roads have been built, how many bridges have been paved, and how many major projects I have presided over in this year; When the official writes the work report, he writes about how many exams I have taken this year, how many schools I have opened, and how many people I have educated......

And the envoys. It's to write how many officials I sued! That's their main achievement. Seeing that this year's merit examination period was approaching, the imperial envoy immediately upheld the will of the people and impeached the Shangqing Yuan, and the Shangqing Yuan insisted that they had a basis for judging the case. Fairness, justice and openness, the two sides are so deadlocked.

It was this case that ordered Fox Prison to go to the Shangqing Courtyard to investigate. Obviously, Cui Liangyu wants to use this case as a trick.

Yao'er thought and said: "The Shangqing Yuan is responsible for the case of officials in Beijing, and Ximen Yi is not an official, but the son of an official in Beijing. Although his status as a member of the academy is a meritorious name, he is not an official, and the Shangqing Yuan did not need to hear this case, but they were negligent. Now that the case has been accepted and the verdict has been pronounced, it is natural that the case can no longer be withdrawn and returned to Lin'an Mansion for trial. ”

Wei Chunchun said: "Yes! The reason why the Lin'an Mansion transferred the case to the Shangqing Court without trying it is probably because the Chang family's experience has aroused great public anger in the community. They've heard about it. After all. The Lin'an Mansion is directly under the jurisdiction of the people of Lin'an, and it is impossible for them to be unaware. ”

Yao'er nodded and said, "Well, which imperial envoy in the imperial envoy's platform proposed impeachment, Huang Xuanqian?" ”

In Yao'er's impression, it seems that there is only such a good official left in the Imperial Embassy, and the one who adheres to the will of the people to impeach the Shangqing Yuan is Huang Xuanqian nine times out of ten.

Wei Chunchun said: "It's not Huang Xuanqian. Be...... Wan Guojun! ”

Yao'er Huo Ran stood still and looked at Wei Chunchun in surprise. Wei Chunchun nodded affirmatively and said, "That's right, it's Wan Guojun!" ”

Yao'er said suspiciously: "Wan Guojun? He is Jun Xiachen's henchman, and he has been hiding behind the scenes to give advice to Jun Xiachen. After Jun Xiachen was demoted, he was promoted to the middle of the imperial history, and the entire imperial envoy was also silent. This time, ......, the bitter lord is the official of the ministry, and the case is handled by the Shangqing Yuan, and he challenged these two yamen at the same time. ”

Wei Chunchun frowned and said, "Flying with wings, it may not be really willing to be silent, maybe it is a state of general attack!" ”

Yao'er pondered for a moment, then nodded slowly: "Hmm! I think he is not willing to be left in power, and the reason why he is willing to take care of this matter is that he wants to blackmail public opinion, reshape his image, and reinvigorate the prestige of the imperial envoy. Perhaps, this is also a temptation for them, to test the king's attitude towards the imperial envoy, so they chose such a not too big case as a waystone. ”

Yao'er asked, "What is the Imperial Embassy's proposal?" ”

Wei Chunchun said: "The imperial envoy thought that Ximen Yi's morality was degraded, he made a mistake first, and he was scuffled with Chang Lin at that time, Chang Zhiyuan panicked in order to save his father, but he was filial piety, and killed people by mistake, which was not his intention, and he was young, so he could be reduced to one degree and sentenced to exile." ”

Yao'er looked at Wei Chunchun and said, "So, in your opinion, what does Cui Liangyu want to do?" ”

Wei Chunchun's face was a little bitter: "Now the Imperial Envoy and the Shangqing Court are arguing, Kou Qing Palace, Shangqing Yuan, and the Imperial Embassy are the three legal divisions of the imperial court." The Imperial Legation and the Upper House are at loggerheads, so ...... This case has to be transferred to Kou Qing Palace for review. ”

Yao'er touched her nose and asked curiously, "So what?" Should I try this case? ”

Wei Chunchun learned from her, "pinched" his nose and said: "The case of Chang's mother beating her daughter-in-law to death was grabbed by you for a long time, and this related case is logical, and it has to be tried by you, are the two inherently related." ”

Wei Chunchun's voice was a little resentful, probably complaining that Yao'er didn't make trouble with the case that was finalized in advance, and rashly chose this case that didn't seem complicated at the time, so he was caught in it.

Yao'er smiled: "Don't make such a look, it's not yet time to run out of water." ”

The two of them continued to walk forward, and Yao'er counted his fingers and said, "In this case, I probably understand a little." Cui Liangyu commuted the crime of the old lady of the Chang family in the name of filial piety, and I insisted that she should be sentenced to death in accordance with the law. Now the Shangqing Yuan is going to transfer this case over, if I follow the judgment of the Shangqing Yuan, the final judgment of the Chang family child is the death penalty......"

Wei Chunchun said: "That Langzhong will inevitably be known as a cool official, not only losing public opinion, but also being given an excuse by the imperial envoy to attack you." And the cool officials, in the past, everyone looked away from them. Since Jun Xiachen was demoted, it has been a bit of a shouting and beating by everyone. Changshi, you have just arrived in Kou Qing Palace, and the hundred officials in the court will definitely nip a possible new cool official in the bud. ”

Yao'er said: "Well, what if I follow the imperial envoy's proposal and reduce the crime of the Chang family's children?" ”

Wei Chunchun said: "Then, the Shangqing Yuan will make a big fuss about this, saying that you sentence the old lady of the Chang family to death and sentence the life of the child of the Chang family to be treated differently, and invite people to buy people's hearts, it is not easy to say now, it is foreseeable that the adults must have offended the Shangqing Yuan, offended the officials, and offended the Marquis of Weiyang." ”

Yao'er raised her eyebrows slightly, and asked, "What is this case related to Weiyanghou?" ”

Wei Chunchun said: "Wailang, the examiner of the Ministry of Officials, is now the doorman of Weiyang Hou!" ”

Yao'er was stunned for a long time, and said with a dumb smile: "Don't make a knife, cut off the opponent, Cui Langzhong is really calculating!" (To be continued......)
