51 Punish the evil less
Zhao Wangqian was still a seventeen-year-old boy, and he heard only one sentence: "Such a small matter is handled by the prime minister!" "Then he got into trouble with the concubines and maids of the harem again. The contradiction between Prime Minister Guo Kai and Li Mu is already very big, and I have long heard of the coup d'Γ©tat secretly planned by Li Mu and many old ministers of Zhao State, but there is no evidence! In the name of King Zhao, he sent an envoy to Li Mujun's army to reprimand him fiercely. In the court of the Qin State, Wang Juan and Li Si both claimed that they did not secretly fight in the military and did not comment. Wei Yu and the veteran generals are born in Feng Zheng and Feng Qiji, brothers who know military affairs very well, know that the two armies face off, and each has a famous commander of the army, the competition is strong national strength, and planning outside the battlefield! They all expressed their support for Wang Qian's way of using troops, saying: "More than 30 years ago, Qin and Zhao Changping faced off, and they waited for three years to wait for the fighter plane!" As long as we are patient enough, victory will be ours! "King Dayue of Qin, ordered the four northern counties to purchase a large number of lambs and send them to the various military camps to work for the army! Be sure to ensure that the Great Qin warriors have meat every day.
The drizzle that has been falling for half a month in Xianyang in April has finally stopped, the sun has shown a long-lost smiling face, there is a new green everywhere, and the air is filled with the fragrance of flowers! The peasants were busy ploughing in the fields, and the eunuchs also went out of the streets to stretch their muscles and buy some daily necessities, and the streets suddenly became lively. The men changed into light black or white robes, and the women wore colorful spring clothes and strolled through the spotless bluestone street, which was prosperous and peaceful.
Montenegro also took a few relatives and changed into casual clothes for a walk on the street. Suddenly, a dog barked in front of them, and people dispersed. Montenegro looked forward and saw a white and chubby rich young master, wearing a precious silk robe, holding a pure black hound, followed by four black-clothed minions, swaggering and walking! The black hound was very majestic, with a long red tongue and a majestic manner, which frightened passers-by to avoid it.
An old farmer, dressed in a patched garment, with a pair of straw sandals on his feet, carrying a burden on his shoulders, freshly picked vegetables on one end, a basket of eggs and a piece of pork hanging on the other. Just ahead of that broad boy.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" Na Kuo rarely saw someone in front of him, he was really unhappy, and shouted loudly! But the old farmer's ears were a little back, but he didn't hear it, so he just moved forward.
The big black dog took advantage of the momentum, and immediately took a step forward, leaped upward, and bit the piece of pork. The old farmer only lost his center of gravity, and the eggs immediately fell to the ground, and the weeds, leeks, and sunflowers at the other end were also spilled on the ground! Na Kuo Shao was not in a hurry, and grinned. The old farmer was in a hurry, and immediately picked up the flat pole and smashed it at the big black dog! The big black dog ate and beaten, and without hesitation, he bit the calf of the old farmer and didn't let go! The old farmer was in pain all of a sudden, and smashed the black dog a few times, and the dog escaped with injuries, and the pants and flesh on the old farmer's legs were torn open, and blood flowed.
It is rare to see a dog with a bleeding head and a broken foot! He scolded: "Are you blind? My dog dares to smash it too! β
The old farmer's feet were already in tears, and when he was yelled at by Kuo Shao, his face turned pale with fright, and he was in a cold sweat!
Montenegro sees all this! Stopped his subordinates who wanted to go up to help with his eyes, he wanted to see how this young man would deal with this matter!
"Old man, how much are your meat, eggs, and greens worth? And the injury on your foot, how much does it cost? I compensate you! Na Kuo Shao roared!
The old farmer has long been frightened! Holding back the pain, he grinned and said, "No, no, it's not worth a few dollars!" β
"Can you do without that? The law of the Great Qin Kingdom, damage to other people's things must be compensated, I think so, your dishes are counted as 1,000 yuan, I bought them, and the injury on my foot is also counted as 1,000 yuan, I will give you three gold, and the remaining 400 yuan, even if you compensate your pants, okay? Na Kuo Shao said, took out three gold from the money bag and threw it to the old farmer! Said: In this way, I don't owe you, right? β
"Don't need so much, the meat and vegetables are what the Weifeng Hotel wants, at most they are worth seven hundred dollars, and the pants are not worth much, I'll go back and sew them and wear them." This foot injury, it's not in the way, I'm rough and thick-skinned, just go home and smear some pot ash! The old farmer said that he would return the money to Kuo Shao.
"Do you just say enough? Can this young master still be short of those three golds? Kuo Shao pushed the money to the old peasants again.
The old farmer was at a loss for what to do, so he had to reply, "Enough is enough!" Thank you for the great kindness! β
"Good! I've made amends for your stuff and injuries! Now it's time to talk about my dog's injury! My dog is a high-quality hunting dog specially bought from the Wei State, and one is three hundred gold! Here is the deed issued by Wei Shang! Do you give me 300 gold, and I will give you the dog, or will I pay 100 gold for my dog to see a doctor! Kuo Shao not only took out a piece of wood from his sleeve and handed it to the old man! He had recently bought this hound for a lot of money, and he was scared in front of his fox friends every day. Now that the hound has been severely injured, how can he give up.
"What? Three hundred gold for a dog? I also have two dogs at home, can I compensate you for both? Now the old farmer was so frightened that he forgot the pain in his leg!
"What do I want your dog to do? A hundred of your dogs aren't worth my dogs! Don't bother and lose money! Otherwise, go to the official now! Kuo Shao said viciously!
"Please, let me go! I don't have any money! I can't afford to be a slave for the rest of my life! The old peasant was so frightened that he fell to the ground and begged repeatedly.
Montenegro is so angry that he can't see it! pulled out the crowd and shouted loudly: "The Lieutenant's Mansion is here, who is making noise on the street, is there still Qin Fa in his eyes?" β
"What kind of green onion are you! What do you dare to yell at Young Master Ben? Kuo Shao yelled at Black Mountain.
Montenegro took out the gold medal from his arms and shook it in front of several people. said: "The official is here, who dares to be presumptuous!" Whose things belong to the earth, are they yours? β
As soon as Kuo Shao saw the gold medal of the Lieutenant's Mansion, he immediately put away his anger and said with a smile: "It's his, no, I just bought it!" β
"Your things have fallen to the ground for a quarter of an hour, and if you don't pick them up, it's equivalent to abandoning the ashes, and today you will not cut your nose if you are the first offender! Come on, hit fifty hard, bring it back to the yamen, and wait for the old man to heal his leg injury before he will be punished! Hurt people and vicious dogs, kill them according to the law! Black Mountain's black face was gloomy, and he ordered!
A few subordinates immediately stepped forward and pressed Kuo Shao to the ground, took off his pants, revealing his big white buttocks, and picked up the flat pole to be executed!
Na Kuo Shao was so angry that he screamed and scolded: "Do you know who I am? Dare to mind my business, you... If you dare to beat me, my uncle can't spare you! β
Montenegro was expressionless, and walked to the big black dog, and the black dog saw that Montenegro was in a hurry, and he had long lost the majesty of the dog just now, and he lay on the ground and didn't dare to move. Hei stepped on the dog's head, pulled out Zhang Jin's matching sword, stared fiercely at a few evil minions next to him, and separated immediately with a wave of the dog's head! A few minions were terrified as if the sword was cut at their necks, and they saw that a hunting dog worth three hundred gold immediately became seventy or eighty pounds of dog meat.
A few of his subordinates no longer hesitated, picked up the flat pole, and slapped it fiercely at the white buttocks. The young man howled like a pig at once!
At this time, a team of people from the Lieutenant's Mansion happened to patrol here, and when they saw that it was Montenegro, they didn't say much to help maintain the order.
The crowd of onlookers was three layers inside and three layers outside, and at first they were just whispering, but when they saw that the officers and soldiers were merciless, Kuo Shao was beaten so that his ass blossomed and blood flowed, and they all shouted hello!
After fifty boards, Kuo Shao had already passed out.
"Take the old man to the doctor to bandage it, and then bring it back to record a confession!" Montenegro ordered, pointing to a few more minions, and said, "Bring these witnesses back together!" Let's hand it over to Lord Li for review! β
"My lord's life, it's none of our business!" Several minions fell to the ground in fright and begged for mercy.
"Nonsense! You stood closest and told you to go to the government office to testify, and no one said that you broke the law! Don't force Lao Tzu to do it. One of the chiefs scolded angrily!
With a wave of his hand, Montenegro continued to patrol with a few cronies!
"General, that evil boy is so arrogant, and he doesn't know who his uncle is?" Zhang Jin asked unsatisfactorily.
"It doesn't matter who he is, we don't have to be soft on such a bully! The bigger he comes, the better, and I see who will dare to bully the weak in the street in the future. Montenegro replied.
Li Shiqi has also been idle recently, the crime rate in the Qin State is already very low, since the suppression of several children of the family, no one dares to commit crimes! The daily affairs of the Governor's Mansion run automatically according to the established rules! Today he was bored and looked for some books to read, and someone came to report and arrested a few people who made trouble on the street! The chief will explain the matter in detail, and he will have the bottom in his heart! Immediately ascend to the church, and let the old farmer be called up first.
The wound on the old farmer's foot has just been bandaged! There are still blood stains on his pants, and he walks with a limp. Li Shiqi asked him to sit down and answer.
I asked in detail about the process, name, age, address, and matter. The scribe next to him recorded it in detail, repeated it again, and after confirming that it was correct, he asked the old peasant to draw it.
After the old farmer finished drawing, he took out three gold from his pocket and said, "These three gold were given by that person, and I will hand them over." β
"You hand it over, that's the money you used to sell vegetables and heal your wounds, and you bring it yourself! This is not the official city official at the gate of the city, and no taxes are collected. You can go home! "Eat it.
"I'll be able to go back... Went back? The old farmer asked in surprise.
"Why don't you go back, why do you stay here? The government only takes care of the prisoners' food! Li Shiqi said angrily, and then instructed the little official next to him: "You send the old man back, and find Li Zheng to confirm his identity!" β
"No!" The little official took a piece of wooden slip with the old farmer's name and address written on it, and went with the old farmer!
"Bring those four witnesses up!" Li Shiqi commanded.
After a while, the soldiers brought a few minions with them!
As soon as several minions saw Li Shiqi, they immediately fell to the ground and begged for forgiveness, and their heads slammed the floor tiles with a bang.
"Get up, sit down! You have not sinned, and you have kowtowed. Just to ask you to testify! To answer truthfully, dare to have a hidden man or nonsense, all the hard labor, do you hear? Li Shiqi asked angrily.
"We will answer truthfully! Don't dare to hide it! Several minions replied.
"Tell your name, age, and address first." Li Shiqi said.
"My name is Zhao Jia, the three of them are called Zhao Yi, Zhao Bing, and Zhao Ding, they are all twenty-four years old, and they are the servants of the Zhao Gao family of the CRRC Mansion, and the one who is on the board is our young master, called Zhao Xuan!" Zhao Jia said.
Zhao Gao is now just a little eunuch in charge of driving the car next to King Qin, Li Shiqi didn't know what kind of character he was at all, and continued to interrogate: "Zhao Jia, you first tell me what happened on the street today, tell the truth, don't hide and lie!" β
Zhao Jia's eyes rolled, he was very conflicted, he wanted to say it but didn't dare to say it, so he had to bite the bullet and say, "My lord, I... I didn't see it clearly! β
"What's going on, how did you bring the witnesses?" Li Shiqi's face sank, and he asked the chief who brought the witness back.
"Tell your lord, the four of them are closest to the prisoner! We all knew it before we brought them back to testify. He replied.
"Zhao Jia, you dare to hide the truth from the government, and you also deceive the official! Pull down the heavy responsibility for thirty, and don't tell the truth again, and talk about it! Li Shiqi shouted angrily.
The soldiers on both sides immediately stepped forward and pressed Zhao Jia to the ground, opened his pants, and the bamboo board immediately hit Bai Huahua's ass hard. Zhao Jia's limbs couldn't move, and there was a howl like killing a pig in his mouth, and after thirty boards, his buttocks were already bloody and blurred! I didn't faint.
"Zhao Yi, can you see clearly? You speak first! Li Shiqi asked Zhao Yi indifferently.
Zhao Yizao's face was frightened, and he hurriedly told what happened on the street today from beginning to end, and Zhao Bing and Zhao Ding rushed to make additions. The book history on the side is all recorded in detail.
"What did your young master say before he was hit with the board?" Li Shiqi asked solemnly.
"He seems to say, 'If you dare to mind my business and beat me, my uncle will not spare you.'" Zhao Jia replied. The other three immediately said nothing was wrong.
"Let them draw a charge and go to the housekeeper of the Chefu Lingfu to come." Li Shiqi said.
At this time, Zhao Gao, although he was deeply trusted by the King of Qin, was a very low-key person, doing things neatly and neatly, and treating any minister very modestly and politely, no one dared to imagine that this little eunuch would be so fierce and cruel in the future! The housekeeper of the Zhao Mansion is also a very knowledgeable person! As soon as I heard that the young master had an accident on the street, the government sent someone to ask him to recognize someone. He hurriedly put down the work in his hand and came to the lieutenant's mansion!
"I asked you to follow the young master, so that you can watch him and don't let him cause trouble! Yours, not only did not persuade, but also aided in the abuse. Let's go back to the family law! The butler scolded angrily!
"This is the identity of the four of them, you can draw the charge if you see it is correct, and the four of them can leave!" The scribe handed a piece of wood to the butler to look at, and the steward said yes and signed it.
"Bring someone to commit Zhao Xuan!" Li Shiqi gave an order.
Zhao Hao no longer had the aura of being on the street, and was forked into the lobby by two soldiers, and when he threw it to the ground, he immediately screamed in pain.
"Prisoners in the hall, report their names, ages, and identities!" Li Shiqi shouted.
"My name is Zhao Wei, nineteen years old. I live in the CRRC Mansion Ling family, and the CRRC Mansion Ling Zhao Gao is my own uncle! Zhao replied.
"I have here four witnesses to prove that you are guilty of four crimes today, one is to hurt people; 2. Failed attempts to make money; 3. Abandon the ashes in the road; Fourth, he threatened the officials with wild words. Can you plead guilty? Li Shiqi shouted coldly.
"My lord, I didn't do it all unintentionally! Please spare me! Zhao knew that something was wrong, so he fell to the ground and cried bitterly and begged for mercy.
"Qin's law is strict, the world is famous, and there has never been a word of forgiveness. I only ask you to confess your guilt? Li Shiqi asked indifferently.
"Zhao Hao pleaded guilty!" Zhao Wei was afraid of being beaten again, so he had to admit it. The scribe immediately brought the book and asked him to draw it.
"If a dog hurts someone, you bought meat and vegetables for the first time and compensated the injured, and the injured person was satisfied, so there is no need to pursue this! abandoned the ashes in the road, and has already suffered fifty boards, and will no longer be pursued. If you attempt to blackmail 100 gold, you will be fined 100 gold and sentenced to 3 months' imprisonment. Wild words threatened the official and sentenced you to three months. The sentence of the two crimes is as follows: a fine of 100 gold, a black face, and six months of hard labor in Lishan. Li Shiqi wrote down the verdict with a stroke of his pen and handed it over. Small public security cases like this are all concluded by the lieutenant yamen. Only major cases were transferred to the Xianyang Lingfu or Tingwei for trial. It's about the same as the police station in later generations!
Since the case took place in a downtown area, the official copied two copies of the verdict on cloth and stamped it with the official seal of the lieutenant's office. One was posted at the scene of the crime, and a small official announced the verdict in public for a day. One was handed to the pavilion chief where the old farmer was, and the pavilion chief read it to the village under his jurisdiction. It was by such pragmatic propaganda methods that the Qin State made the Qin Law deeply rooted in the hearts of the people! After this incident, there is no one in Xianyang City who dares to bully others!
The words were divided into two ends, and Montenegro caught Na Kuo Shao and continued to patrol around. It didn't take long for someone in the palace to report that King Qin sent an envoy to order Montenegro to lead a thousand lieutenants to drive to Lin Yuan! Depart in the afternoon.
Going to the garden is that the king of Qin saw a rare sunny day, and temporarily wanted to go out to relax, accompanied by the concubine Wang Xiaofei, the minister Li Si, Wei Yi, Zhao Gao accompanied the attendants, Wang Li took three hundred Lang Wei to drive, and Montenegro led a thousand central guards to escort. The king of Qin has become accustomed to asking Li Si if he is indecisive in political affairs, and Wei Yi if he is indecisive in military affairs. In the afternoon, Montenegro dressed in an official uniform and carried a thousand heavily armed lieutenant troops, and set off for Shanglin Yuan.
Shanglin Yuan was just Qin Xiaogong built a small mountain villa here at the beginning, Qin Huiwen King expanded on a large scale, Qin Zhaoxiang King simply expanded all the hundreds of miles into the royal hunting garden, to now, it is already a large garden full of pavilions, rockery streams, strange flowers and trees, rare birds and beasts! In peacetime, there are 3,000 troops guarding, and more than 1,000 palace maids and eunuchs have been here for a long time.
King Qin is a workaholic, since he was in power for three years, he will live for ten days and a half in the summer of a year, and today is the concubine Wang Xiaofei who has been stuffy in the palace for more than half a year, and he should have to run out to breathe, so he decided to come out temporarily.
On the official road leading from Xianyang to Shanglinyuan, Montenegro led a team to escort the horse chariot through the fields. Many farmers on both sides are sowing seeds in the fields, a pastoral spring scene!
Wang Xiaofei is still wearing a red Shu brocade dress, with her hair tied up in a bun and a few beaded flowers, which is more fresh and refined, beautiful and moving. She asked the curtain on the king's car to be removed, and she and the king of Qin enjoyed the beautiful rural scenery outside in the car.
At this time, the people did not have the etiquette of kneeling on the roadside to receive the king's car. When they saw the King of Qin traveling, they were all cultivators who forgot their plows, hoeers who forgot their hoes, and men, women, and children all stood on both sides of the road. Get a glimpse of the King of Qin and his princess. Countless pairs of fiery eyes stared at the princess's beautiful face. At this time, the love story of King Qin and Wang Xiaofei had already spread all over the world. A ploughman, seeing that the princess was so beautiful, was stunned, his saliva flowed, and his wife was desperately pinching his arm by his side, but he didn't feel any pain!
"Your Majesty, I really want to get out of the king's cart and go and plant the seedlings with them for a while, I used to plant them well! May I? The princess suddenly said to King Qin on a whim!
King Qin couldn't cry or laugh, and didn't know how to answer, so he had to say with a wry smile: "Look at this group of Qiantou, the way they look at you, aren't you afraid that the widow will be jealous and kill them all?" β
"People are joking with you, look at the clothes I'm wearing now, I have to have a few people to help me pull my dress after I take a step, and how to plant seedlings!" The princess muttered.
At this moment, a bull on the hillside saw the princess dressed in fiery red, all the cows were born with a grudge against red, and when they saw it, they would almost rush over and use the horns on their heads to knock them out. The adult bull, weighing two thousand pounds, immediately broke free from the hitch, pulled the rope from the farmer's hand, and rushed down to the king's chariot. The farmer was so frightened that he shouted, "Beware of the cow going crazy, the cow is crazy!" β
The sound was very loud, everyone looked at the hillside, they were all frightened, the big buffalo ran like a hill and crashed into the king's car, Lang Wei saw such a formation, they were in a daze and didn't know how to stop it.
Montenegro shouted: "Escort!" He immediately dismounted and stood on the side of the king's chariot, facing the big buffalo that was galloping wildly. Shi Fatzi and the carpenter also did not hesitate to protect both sides of the Black Mountain!
"Don't panic, I'll come!" Nobita also dismounted, holding a big iron rod horizontally, blocking in front of the three Montenegrins!
