Chapter 286: Taiping County Case X
The more Song Qing and the others strode in, several female dependents hurriedly dodged to the side, their eyes seemed to be dodging, and they didn't dare to look directly.
You Chuan opened his mouth at this moment, "Old Zhixian, you have a good life this day, you have been retired for so long, I didn't expect that you are still so powerful at this moment, which is really admirable and admirable by this official." ”
Jiang Zhuo was stunned for a moment, and then laughed out loud the next moment, "Who am I, it turned out to be Brother You, what's the matter, it's been several years since I sat in the county, I still don't know what to ask me hehe, but it's not the right time for Brother You to come, you see..
You Chuan said: "I said Lao Zhixian, when will you wake up from your big dream, you can't see what the situation is at the moment, today the official is not looking for you to catch up, but to arrest you."
"Arrest me" Jiang Zhuo found Song Qing next to him, and he didn't know who it was, but he didn't ask much.
"I said Brother You, brother, I've been retiring for a long time, how can you come to arrest my brother, isn't it very unreasonable, but don't you say it?"
Song Qing said to the deputy general: "First arrest all these female dependents and take them outside to wait, and Song will have a good chat with this old magistrate later."
The deputy general took immediate action, and Song Qing walked forward a few times and said: "Lao Zhi County, right, in fact, it is not You Zhi County who wants to arrest you, but Song Mou who wants to arrest you, do you know why, because Song thinks you should be arrested."
"You arrested me, hehe, where did the hairy boy come from, the official has retired for several years, why are you arresting me?"
He is still a little disdainful, relying on his relationship with the Jin family, very, very arrogant. "Little guy, I don't know where you came from, first of all, you know who the official is, and you know the relationship between the official in this Taiping County."
Song Qingdao: "I know, aren't you the old magistrate, and if I'm not mistaken, you have a good relationship with the Jin family brothers in this county."
Jiang Zhuo sneered, "Since you know, then you still have to come to feed the kid recklessly, I said are you stupid The official told you that if you can leave here, I can still do nothing today." ”
"But if you continue to be obsessed, believe it or not, this official will never spare you
Song Qing really didn't believe it, but You Zhixian believed it a little, and he began to be timid again, very timid.
“.... Sentence, matter.. If you want to leave it at that?"
Song Qingli drank, "Come on, arrest this person and send him to the yamen, and then wait for Song to personally try the case tomorrow." ”
The adjutant general stepped forward to control Jiang Zhuo, and in a burst of threats, intimidation, and abuse, he was taken out.
The group finally returned to the yamen, and then they were all imprisoned in their cells.
Song Qingdao: "Deputy General Chao, you send some people to guard at night, I'm worried that this You Chuan may have to release people again, and at that time, we will give up all our efforts."
"Yes, sir."
Confessed to the deputy general, Song Qing and Tang Yueyue also entered the house, there was fire in their hearts, and now that things have come to this point, I believe that this Jin family brother will not be arrogant for long.
At the same time, it has been two days, and there has been no reply from the imperial court, Song Qing knows that relying on Song Duzong is no longer possible at the moment, and everything has to be done by himself at present.
"My lord, things have progressed to this point now, what do you think we should do tomorrow, just take someone to arrest the Jin brothers?"
Song Qing thought for a while, it's not that he doesn't dare, but there is no bottom at present, there are tens of thousands of people under the Jin family brothers, and when there is no absolute certainty, it is better not to startle the snake. "Miss Yueyue, I can't wait for this case, and I can't wait for a while, and you will say that it is not at the same time, at present, I still have to find out whether this case is involved, whether the history of the local county seat is involved in the case.
"But according to Song's estimate, most of them have already been finished, otherwise the matter is so big, it is impossible to know anything, and it is obviously impossible."
Tang Yueyue also felt that it should be like this, and things finally came to an eyebrow.
After the adjutant general finished the matter, he also walked in, and at the same time held some food in his hand.
"My lord, I have already explained the matter, and at the same time, just now You Zhi County gave us some food for adults to eat.
Song Qing laughed, "I've been busy for so long, Song has been hungry for a long time, since that's the case, then what are you doing stupidly Yueyue girl, deputy general, I'll eat together." ”
The three of them gathered together and continued to discuss the case.
Song Qing thought of those female dependents and had an idea at this moment.
"Miss Yueyue, because men and women don't kiss each other, about tomorrow, Song hopes that you can interrogate these women."
"Ahh Me... Tang Yueyue was a little relieved. "My lord, I don't have experience in trying cases, are you sure I can leave it to me, what if I make a mistake" Song Qingdao: "There is no such thing as making a mistake, you just need to ask them how long they have been following Lao Zhixian, and how often the Jin family brothers will come, as for the rest, what do you think of and ask."
.... She was still a little worried.
"Don't be, if you want to leave this county seat earlier, then listen to Song, and besides, I don't have to worry about you convicting them."
"Okay then." Tang Yueyue put her mind at ease.
"As for the deputy general, tomorrow, you will take someone to wait directly in the garden, Song is worried that this Jin family brother may have heard the news and will come to save people."
"Yes, my lord."
"Also, we have to stay here tonight, for fear that the enemy will kill a surprise attack, and by then, we will all be dead."
After eating food in a hurry, everyone fell into bed and began to sleep.
Lin'an Xuande Palace, this day in the early court, Song Duzong has come to the Xuande Hall early in the morning, on weekdays is the ministers waiting, today, it is he and other ministers, the reason is not him, just because he is happy.
After a while, the ministers finally came in in droves, and they all knelt on the ground, kowtowing and shouting hooray.
Song Duzong said: "Everyone, get up, I actually have good news to tell you today, that is, I plan to disarm."
There is a lot of discussion under "disarmament", what is the situation in the Great Song Dynasty now, why do we still need to disarm
Many people don't understand, could it be that Mongolia is really going to give up attacking the Great Song Dynasty, although it is safe for the time being, but it does not mean that it will be the same in the future.
Song Duzong continued: "Ladies and gentlemen, I have also thought it through, and the current relations between Song and Mongolia have been unprecedentedly good, and I feel that it is impossible for Mongolia to continue to attack our Great Song Dynasty."
"The army, at present, also has 8 million, 8 million a year is a lot of expenses, if half of the disarmament, wouldn't it be a year to save tens of millions of taels of silver, if it is used to curry favor with the Mongolian Kublai Khan, do you think he will be even happier
Ji Dadao: "Your Majesty, Weichen feels that this method is completely inappropriate, we can't continue like this, you must know that Mongolia will not die in my heart, Your Majesty."
"At present, although there is no war between the two countries, it is inevitable that there will be friction in the future, the emperor, half of the general land is missing, this is a full four million people, if the Mongolian army goes south, how can we resist?"
There are ministers in the vicinity who echo it, although they are greedy, they also know the current situation, if it is disarmed, it is possible that the country is really not in danger.
Song Duzong could fully hear the opinions of these ministers, but he didn't think so, especially after getting together with Kublai Khan, he decided to emphasize literature over military force. "Master Ji, I understand what you said, but right, I have made up my mind, you don't know, if half of it is disarmed, I will save countless silver in the Southern Song Dynasty a year."
"You have considered it for me, you have considered it for the imperial court, and if these millions of soldiers do not eat in the barracks, the pressure on me will be much less.
Below, in the iron triangle, Master Sun said: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks what you said is completely reasonable, and Weichen fully supports the emperor's wise decision."
"You must know that disarming four million is not to kill these people, but to let them be self-reliant and leave the barracks to live their own lives."
Master Ji immediately said: "Lord Zuo Lang Sun, what you said is completely wrong, if, I mean that if I wait for a disarmament, then Mongolia will lead millions of troops south, and then how will I deal with it?"
There was a person next to him: "Yes, yes, Weichen also agrees with Lord Ji's words, after all, this is no better than anything else, this matter is about the country, about hundreds of millions of people, how can this be decided easily"
"Your Majesty, we don't support the emperor's disarmament, I hope the emperor will retract what he just said, I don't dare to see the Southern Song Dynasty be wiped out by the Mongol army."
Lord Wang of the Ministry of Industry: "Lord Worry, I don't support your and Lord Ji's point of view, at present, the Southern Song Dynasty is peaceful, the country is peaceful, since this is the case, then what do I need so many people to do in the Great Song Dynasty"
Master He also interjected: "Yes, since we have made peace with Mongolia, then we can't ask for so many people, in case Kublai Khan learned that I still have eight million soldiers in the Southern Song Dynasty, wouldn't he think that we would counterattack him?"
As soon as this remark came out, some people felt that it was reasonable, but this was to the point, and it was true.
Song Duzong snorted, he also felt that this was reasonable, it was such a thing.
"Ladies and gentlemen, listen to what the three adults said just now, do you think that what I just said is not wrong at the moment?"
"That's right, since the Song and Mongolia have become friends, then what do I need so many people to do, and if Kublai Khan knows about it, won't I think I'm guarding against him?"
Lord Ji knew the stakes of this matter, he was unwilling, and continued: "Your Majesty, the old minister is still the same as just now, the Southern Song Dynasty cannot be disarmed, and it must not, otherwise, the country is really .....
"Shut up" Song Duzong glared at him angrily, "Ji Aiqing, I have already made it very clear what I said just now, why can't you listen to it?"
"If that's the case, then do you want Lord He to continue to analyze and analyze the benefits and disadvantages of this for you, since that's the case, then I will trouble you to continue to talk about analysis and analysis.
