Chapter 751: On the Law

Mao Jiuhua pointed at Wang Xiao with an angry face, and was about to solemnly inform the serious consequences of offending the scholar, so as to deter this kid......

As soon as he turned his head, he saw the bloody heads piled up on the ground.

There was also a pair of terrifying eyes on the rolling skull. The fishy smell is disgusting.

Mao Jiuhua's old legs shook, his knees were weak, and the whole person fell on the chair.

He wanted to say something more, but his lips trembled so hard that he couldn't say a word.

Not only did his lips tremble violently, but his heart trembled violently, and he felt that he couldn't breathe, and a cool breeze was swishing on his back.

So he simply closed his eyes, and finally, it was dark and dark. He wasn't as scared as he had been.

- Ah, what a ...... old man It's so stupid, why did you run to die? No, Sun Puze didn't come, but he was the first to die......

~~

"Daddy!"

Sun Yanbin wailed and fell to his knees. I wanted to crawl out the door, but I felt that my limbs couldn't lift my strength.

His eyelids trembled violently, his gaze swept over, and he couldn't bear to look at it and couldn't help but recognize the heads.

"Fourth uncle!"

"Second Brother ......"

In the past, he wished that his second brother would die, but at this time, staring at the blood-stained face, he only hoped that this piece did not happen.

"Daddy......"

The next moment, someone stepped on his back.

"Okay, let's put this aside to recognize my relatives."

Sun Yanbin's tearful face was pressed against the green bricks in the lobby, extremely cold, he trembled all over, and suddenly let out a roar like a beast.

"Ahh

He struggled and shouted, "Wang Xiao! How dare you...... I'll kill you, I'll kill you! ”

With a "bang", the general who stepped on him kicked him on the threshold.

Sun Yanbin spit out a mouthful of blood, turned his head to look, and saw his second uncle's terrifying eyes, and cried hoarsely.

"Enough!" Fu Ticketchu finally couldn't bear it anymore, and stood up and shouted: "Lai Guogong, you connived at your subordinate officials and generals to commit murder, is there any royal law?!" ”

His face was full of solemnity, and he still couldn't help but tremble a little in his words.

Left ...... Zuo Gong, you ...... I also saw it......" Meng Hongyi opened his mouth and said, he didn't expect his voice to be so shaky, he was startled, tried to straighten his tongue, and said, "This ...... In doing so, the court ruled ...... Where is the testimonies? How is this different from a rogue, or a captive? Still...... It's better to be a rogue and a captive......"

His voice trembled so hard that he finally stopped, and he couldn't say the last threatening words.

What he had in mind was not like this, he wanted to scold Fang Xuan and scold Wang Xiao loudly.

But I can't control it.

Zuo Jinglun also felt that it was difficult to end, but he had never seen any scenes, so he didn't answer positively, and said slowly: "Zhenyang don't be afraid, take a sip of tea first and listen to what Guogong has to say." ”

Meng Hongyi was stunned for a moment, glanced at Wang Xiao, and quickly withdrew his gaze.

Wang Xiao sat on the main seat with a cold expression.

"Bring it on."

"Yes."

Cai Wuzhen raised his bloody hand and waved, and a soldier carried a large box into the hall and put it on the ground with a "bang". And the soldiers came in with men who looked like stewards.

After a short while, Wang Zhu frowned and walked in around the large pile of heads at the door.

Wang Zhu's face was a little tired, he looked around the lobby and spoke.

"The wealth of Bancheng belongs to the Sun family, I don't need to say, you are all strangers to the Sun family in Jining. The Sun family has been studying for generations and taking the exam as a career. Since the beginning of Chu, there has been a champion, a leader, five jinshi, nine lifters, forty-one tributes and talents......"

There was silence in the hall, and everyone looked unkind.

Wang Zhu made a rare joke, and said: "My Wang family is much more stupid, and I haven't been able to produce a jinshi until now." There has been a total of one person in the family, and there is barely a tribute. ”

Wang Xiao sat with a majestic face, not knowing that the 'Gongsheng' in the second brother's mouth was referring to himself, and he didn't know how reluctant this 'reluctance' was.

The so-called Gongsheng refers to those who have excellent grades or qualifications in the Xiucai of Fuzhou County, and are selected to study in the Beijing Division. Although Wang Xiao has studied in Guozijian for two days, he is not a talent.

Wang Zhu's self-deprecating ridicule is naturally understandable by someone in the hall. But no one was amused, and became more and more silent.

"Speaking of the Sun family, since the founding of the Chu Dynasty, the Sun family has more than 40 people who have entered the official career, including a central minister, two scholars, a governor, two governors, and a position according to the inspection, and there are 38 Taoists below the prefecture and county. It can be said that the sons are beautiful and the blue and purple are in the court...... So how many fields does the Sun family have? ”

As he spoke, he picked up a book from the large box in the hall.

"The Sun family's fields are managed much better than the Yansheng Mansion." Saying this, he opened the account book and said slowly: "The account is about 2.6 million mu, and it is all without grain......

And not surprised.

Everyone in the hall raised their eyes and looked at Wang Zhu, and they all felt a little inexplicable. The people in the clan were even more angry and afraid, and trembled slightly.

Wang Zhu read again: "In the fourteenth year of Yanguang, the locust plague injured the crops, the year was apologous, and people were cannibalistic. Sun Puze opened a warehouse to help the people, but he actually exchanged grain for land, and the people who followed the door were connected and rubbed shoulders. At the beginning of the year, a bucket of rice is exchanged for an acre of land. After three days, four liters of rice are exchanged for one acre of land...... In the thirteenth year of Yanguang, there was a great drought and a great apology...... Twelve years of Yanguang......"

"Enough!"

Fu Ticketchu finally couldn't help it, pointed at Wang Zhu and shouted: "Although the Sun family's move is inappropriate, it does not violate the law. Even if it is to be punished, why ...... Why do you still have justice?! ”

Sun Yanbin was shrinking on the threshold and crying, he was inexplicably moved when he heard the words, staring at Fu Ticketchu and nodding desperately.

"The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty. Lai Guogong, you want to kill the Sun family because the Sun family has land, how is it different from a robber......"

With a "bang", Wang Xiao clapped the case and shouted: "Lao Tzu is a robber!" Come! ”

There was a loud bang, and the officers and soldiers of the Confucian Mansion drew their knives one after another and rushed to the lobby.

Fu Ticket's face turned pale at the beginning, and his legs fell limply and sat on the chair.

Mao Jiuhua was so frightened that his eyelids closed tighter, and his whole person shrank up, trembling so much that his chair was shaking.

Meng Hongyi was also shocked and muttered, "The country ...... Grandpa Guo...... If you have something to say...... I'm ......."

The next moment, Wang Zhu said: "Come on, bring other evidence of the crime." ”

He barely squeezed out a smile from that stinky face, and said: "Don't be surprised, my brother is joking with everyone, joking, how can there be a reason to kill the Sun family because of the fact that the Sun family has a lot of fields?" Naturally, there was a reason for killing him. ”

Mao Jiuhua was frightened, but when he heard the word 'don't be surprised', he opened his eyes and glanced over, and saw that the knives in the hands of those officers and soldiers were taken back again, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

- Fuck, it's so dark.

Zuo Jinglun can see that the Wang Xiao brothers are singing red face and white face, he has always known that the second child of the Wang family has a mean temperament, but he didn't expect to come out and pretend to be a good person.

Wang Zhu said: "My Chu Dynasty was founded, and the Taizu Sermon demanded that 'in the future, the interest shall not exceed three points', and the Chu law also clearly stipulates that the monthly profit shall not exceed three points. ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and another soldier came up with three large boxes.

The box was opened, and it was densely packed with IOUs.

Wang Zhu picked up a stack casually and read: "As evidenced by the deed, Liu Baocai borrowed the principal of 1,500 yuan from Sun Maoyuan today, stating that the interest will be paid off in December of the following year...... Oh, what's interesting is that this time, December 18, the eighth year of Zhongping...... In the eighth year of Zhongping, it was still the reign of Zhaozong, do you know how much silver Liu Baocai's descendants still owe the Sun family to this day? ”

After turning a few pages, he smiled and said, "I still owe twenty-eight taels of silver." ”

The gentry in the hall were still not surprised, staring at the three chests without saying a word.

Zuo Jinglun sighed and said slowly: "Why do you say that there are many wanderers in this world? Just because of a few floods and a few droughts, are the people going to rise up and become enemies of the imperial court?! The old man asked you to put yourself up and think, if you are the descendant of Liu Baocai, because your ancestors borrowed 1,500 Wen, you can't afford to repay it for generations as cattle and horses. Will you follow Tang Zhongyuan in rebellion? Ladies and gentlemen, the world is in chaos, and you are the ones who suffer. ”

Fu Ticketchu's face turned pale and said, "What Zuo Gong said, the younger generation understands. But ......"

"You will talk about the testimonies." Wang Zhu interrupted, "Brother Shei doesn't want to talk about this kind of law that protects your privileges, but I can talk to you and ......."

As he spoke, he threw one of the IOUs in his hand to the ground.

"Heavy interest and stolen goods are judged for sin, and the rod is a hundred."

He threw another one on the ground.

"A hundred rods."

Lost again.

"A Hundred ...... Rods"

The three big boxes were quietly placed in the hall, and according to Wang Zhu's method of throwing, I don't know when I want to throw them.

Wang Xiao looked impatiently at him and counted slowly, waved his hand again, and said, "Are you satisfied with the law you want?" ”

Fu Ticketing looked around, only to see that the gentry were silent, obviously not wanting to be the first bird, he gritted his teeth, stood up and said: "No matter what, there is no reason to use lynching like this......"

Before the words were finished, another shout in the lobby said: "Report! Guogong, the assassin who assassinated Guogong has arrived. ”

With these words, the shepherd went up to the lobby according to a man dressed as a handmaid.

Fu Piaochu was interrupted in the middle of his words, slightly annoyed, but he was also a lot more relaxed in his heart, at least Wang Xiao didn't cut himself directly with a knife.

At this moment, he looked at the head outside the door, and actually felt that Wang Xiao was willing to show incriminating evidence and human evidence, which was also very reasonable...... "No, why do I think so?" ”

He calmed down and looked at the maidservant, but found that the other party was obviously a very ugly man, and his outfit made people gasp when they saw it.

"Say! Who instructed you to assassinate the Prince?! The shepherd kicked the big woman on the cheek, and the knife in his hand was raised.

The big woman had obviously been tortured, his hands were bloody, and he knelt on the ground without saying a word.

"Hey, you want to pretend to be a good man, don't you? Take a look for yourself, the head of the Sun family is here, think about where your family will be now. ”

The big man in women's clothes howled sadly, kowtowed on the ground, and didn't dare to turn his head to look at Sun Yanbin, shouting: "Young master, I'm sorry for you!" Ladies and gentlemen, the little one ...... The younger one was ordered by Master Sun to assassinate the Duke of Laiguo......"

Sun Yanbin was shocked and wanted to climb outside the hall, but when he put his hand on the threshold, he saw his father's and brother's heads there.

When he looked up again, he saw Cai Wuzhen's bloody hands holding on to the handle of the knife.

Sun Yanbin was so frightened that he cried again, and when he was thinking of running for his life, he turned around and knelt on the ground and cried.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Ladies and gentlemen...... Please, save the juniors! Please save the juniors......"

He didn't know how to phrase it, and he was thinking about whether to beg Wang Xiao for mercy. But thinking of the deep hatred in the sea of blood, I really don't want to forgive the big enemy.

After living to this moment in his life, he knew how helpless it was to 'make people for knives and I for fish and meat'......

"Uncles...... Save the juniors......"

Mao Jiuhua closed his eyes, as if he passed out. The world out there is obviously too dark.

Meng Hongyi's body shrunk, trying to make himself appear less noticeable. I secretly hated why I was sitting in such a top position.

Zeng Wenda thought to himself, "The old man himself is difficult to protect, how can I save you?" Hurriedly pulled out the Buddha beads in his sleeve and counted them one by one, "Amitabha, Bodhisattva blesses ......"

Fu Piaochu wanted to say something, but when he opened his mouth, he didn't know what to say for a while. If the Sun family made the first move, then it would be difficult to say...... Cao Cao killed Kong Rong, no matter what the purpose of the strategy behind it was, the reason for bringing it to the table was to avenge his father...... By the way, Kong Rong is also the queen of Kong Sage.

Thinking about these things in his heart, Fu Ticketchu glanced up at Wang Xiao, and then at Kong Xingxie next to Wang Xiao, thinking uncertainly.

Wang Xiao was slightly disappointed in his heart - these gentry didn't feel that it was a sin to strip the people countless times in their hearts. On the contrary, it is an unforgivable crime to assassinate a national duke......

"Uncle Shi...... Save the juniors......" Sun Yanbin climbed two steps on the ground, extremely pitiful.

The only one who spoke was Zhang Duan, a son of the Zhang family in Ye County.

Zhang Duan shook his head and said, "Brother Sun, how dare you?" We are all the families of cultivation and reading, and the doors of poetry and books. It's different from your Sun family, this kind of murder is ...... It's appalling, is it something we scholars have done?! ”

Sun Yanbin raised his head and stared at Zhang Duan with stunned eyes.

"You ......"

"How much more is it that hires a murderer, and who will assassinate him? is a dignified national public, how is this move different from rebellion? Zhang Duan opened his mouth again and said: "Lai Guogong, the lower officials dare to say a word." Our families have come to the Confucian Mansion, and indeed we have different intentions about the division of land. But we are here to discuss with the Lord, not to use the sword......"

Wang Xiao suddenly raised his chin at the shepherd.

The shepherd understood, raised the knife in his hand, and cut off Sun Yanbin's head with a knife!

With a "poof", a column of blood gushed out.

Zhang Duan was still talking, and for a moment the blood sprayed his face.

He screamed, took two steps back, and fell to the ground.

"Ahh

Kong Xingxie had already been frightened by those heads outside the door, just thinking that 'fortunately he had compromised to protect the Confucian Mansion' to earn it until now, looking at Sun Yanbin just now, his heart was full of sympathy, and he was still hoping that someone could stand up to help Sun Yanbin. I didn't expect to see such a scene in the next moment.

Kong Xingxie only felt that his heart was shattered with fright, he couldn't lift it in one breath, his eyes rolled, and he finally fainted to the ground.

After falling to the ground, his feet twitched twice.

"General Sheep, what's the matter with you?!" Wang laughed and shouted, "Do you know that it scared Zhang Hanlin?" Don't quit yet...... Hmm, Zhang Hanlin, just now I talked about discussing the division of land, and you continued. ”

Meng Hongyi scolded in his heart. He listened to Zhang Duan just now, and secretly praised several words in his heart, "Okay, this future life is good, and it is slightly the same as what the old man saw." Zhang Duan's meaning seems to be on Wang Xiao's side, but it is actually quite subtle. To put it simply: leave aside the Sun family, let's talk about it, and don't do anything to anyone.

- This 'no one should do anything' is mainly to let Wang Xiao not do it. As for 'talking', who can talk about themselves as scholars and scholars?

Meng Hongyi was very satisfied with this statement, so he turned his head to look at Zhang Duan, hoping that he would continue to stand up and say......

Zhang Duan's mouth was splashed with blood and he wanted to vomit, but in front of so many people, he finally held back.

He wiped his face and stood up, only to feel the cold behind him, so he turned his head to look again, for fear that someone would cut off his head from behind.

Turning his head again, the gentry looked at him with encouraging and timid eyes.

- Go on.

"Xiaguan...... Xia Guan felt that it was advantageous to divide the field. I Ye County, Zhang County...... The lower officials can't be the master, but I hope that after I go back, I will explain the reason with the patriarch and make ...... A satisfactory reply will be given to the national government. ”

"Good." Wang Xiao was very approving, "The Zhang family of Ye County, I have made a note that you are the second to propose the division of land after the Yan Sheng Gong Mansion." ”

He tapped his fingers on the back of the chair and said, "Who else disagrees with the division of fields?" ”

Mao Jiuhua was really scared, but he still managed to open his eyes.

"Grandpa Guo, the old man is seventy and nine times old this year. Do you still remember the year of Zhongjinshi, or when Emperor Zhaozong was in power, it is not too much to call himself a 'veteran of the four dynasties'? Today, the old decay is out, even if the Guogong wants to kill the old decay, but the Mao family's field is not divided. It's not that the Mao family is greedy for money, but because these fields are all innocent from their ancestors, and they can't be divided. ”

The gentry who were silent saw that there was someone who came out, and they all said that they still refused to divide the land, and each had its own reason.

They are not afraid of death, nor do they love money more than their own lives.

Rather, it is because these fields are the property of the family, and in this era, the family is their foundation. If there is no family support, they will not be able to study and study, and they will not be able to get married at weddings and funerals, and doing something is a world of difference from now.

If it is your own field, if you are forced to be forced with a knife like this, you will give it. But if you give up the land in the clan today, you and your wife and children will face a life of being poked in the backbone by the clansmen in the future.

At this moment, the gentry were not for themselves, but for their families, and they finally faced Wang Xiao's butcher's knife...... Carefully cry out for grievances.

"Grandpa Guo, my Zeng family really doesn't have much land......

"Grandpa Guo......"

"It's not enough, is it?" Wang Xiao sneered and said, "It's okay, let's take a look together." ”

With his words, the hall was quiet again, and everyone panicked.

- This ...... What is this demon king of the world going to do?

~~

Just now outside the Confucian Mansion, when the tenants were at their most energetic, Cai Wuzhen suddenly led the soldiers and horses to rush out, and the soldiers were still carrying bloody sacks.

The scene was bloody, and the troublesome tenants were horrified, screaming as they made way for the officers and soldiers, and they did not know how many people were trampled on.

When the officers and soldiers passed, they were also very confused for a while, and they wanted to continue to make trouble, but they were afraid that they would be killed by the officers and soldiers.

Immediately afterward, another large group of officers and soldiers came to the side of the Confucian Mansion.

A group of tenants looked at it, and their souls were scattered......

Qin Xuance is obviously different from Cai Wuzhen.

Cai Wuzhen was more practical, killed more than 200 people, packed the heads with sacks, and left most of the soldiers and horses in the Sun family to take care of the prisoners. In short, although he is fierce, he is also restrained.

Qin Xuance didn't kill much, only a few dozen, but he hung his heads on the spear one by one, swaggering all the way through the city, and the back of the team also used ropes to lead three or four hundred prisoners in middle clothes, and they kept howling all the way.

The tenants were crowded on the side of the road, and when they looked up, they saw that they were all full of hideous faces, still dripping blood......

Many people couldn't stand this scene, and turned around to run, but saw that the brocade guards behind them drove a group of people over, and then there were tenants following behind.

There were still many people who knew each other among the two groups of tenants, and although they were afraid, they still greeted each other.

"Tuwa Dad, why are you here? Didn't you say that you would not speak to the house of the Lord? ”

"Hey, you think I'm a stupid pig, my wife and baby can't live anymore, and you still talk to the master's family? I told you that it was important to get the field. ”

"Then why are you still here?"

"I'm here to sue. The government said that the complaint had a reward for receiving money, and two steamed buns and 20 yuan were issued. ”

"Hey, the government is also two steamed buns and twenty yuan?"

"You're stupid, it's not difficult to send money, will those big men send it? Doesn't the government know how to send it? ”

……

There was a lot of buzz everywhere.

The door of the Kong family suddenly opened.

Qin Xuance raised his gun and shouted, "Fellow fathers and fellow villagers! Today, the Duke of Yu is inside the gate of the mansion of the Confucian saint, dealing with the bullies who are rampant in the township, and making decisions for the fathers and villagers! ”

His voice was like a bell, and the roar rang out, and everyone was stunned for a moment.

"You're going to make trouble, okay! Gong Guo will break this matter with you today......"
