Chapter Eighty-Five: Asan Class Teacher Digs His Heart Hard
The subordinate brought the so-called Ren Bo's entourage into the official residence of Cheng Bigan, and after entering the hall, he knelt down and said, "Prime Minister."
"I wonder who you are? What is the relationship with Ren Bo? Cheng Bigan looked at the man and asked.
"In the next is a lonely son who fled when Lord Ren was in Xingdi, waited for Lord Ren, and finally was sent by the imperial court to the shelter to find the account books of the officials," and then presented the account books and the list of officials sorted out by Uncle Ren, and said: "When Lord Ren returned to the official residence, he was not in good health, so he expected that someone was unfavorable to him, so he handed over the account books and the list to the next place, and ordered him to hide and wait for the arrival of the prime minister, and handed over the account books and lists to the prime minister. Prime Minister, Lord Ren's death is unjust! ”
"Okay, the official already knows about this," then took the account books and lists, and instructed the subordinate next to him, "Help him go down to rest first." The subordinate took his entourage down, leaving only Cheng Bigan to sit alone behind the desk and check the bills until midnight, when he wrote it into the recital and sent it to the court. The next morning, the crown prince Wu Geng received the concert from Cheng Bigan, sat down, and said: "This is the concert presented by the prime minister, as well as the list of corrupt officials, these corrupt officials embezzled disaster relief funds, it is really hateful, you can take a look," stood and threw down the concert in his hand, and all the officials picked up the concert and circulated it, and they all said, "It should be killed," and some officials remained silent, bowing their heads without saying a word, and their cold sweat broke out.
Wei Ziqi stood up and bowed: "His Royal Highness the Prince, I don't know what to do with Marquis Suwan?"
"Killing, not killing is not enough to make people angry."
"This Su Wan is Queen Su's younger brother, the prince should not have a grudge with Queen Su at this time, I am afraid that your crown prince's position will not be guaranteed, so I should wait for the king to come back and deal with it."
"Before the commercial law, we should treat everyone equally, and we will not be afraid of him because he is a prince, where should those unjust souls who died in vain redress their grievances? and justice, you can cut it first and then play," and then the prince's edict came out, saying: "The marquis of Qing embezzled 200,000 yuan in disaster relief funds, and the national teacher Gongsun Bao embezzled 300,000 yuan in disaster relief funds, and conspired to murder the court officials, sentenced to be executed, and did not need to be escorted to Chaoge, and executed on the spot.
After receiving the prince's edict, Cheng Bigan walked out and said, "You can try the case and go to the official court."
After Cheng Bigan sat at the desk, Qinghou Su Wan, the national teacher Gongsun Bao and some convicted officials were taken into custody, counted their crimes, and said: "Qinghou Su Wan embezzled 200,000 yuan in disaster relief funds, and Guoshi Gongsun Bao embezzled 300,000 yuan in disaster relief funds, conspired to murder the court officials, and sentenced them to be executed; Doctor Boya, Xiaochen Zhonggao, Bangbo Mengding, and Shuling Yiding embezzled 100,000 yuan respectively, and in order to curry favor with the national teacher Gongsun Leopard, dozens of strong men were arrested for sucking brain marrow, and they were sentenced to be beheaded; Diannan Tao Qian, no nephew, is a collaborator, sentenced to behead and imprisoned, and confiscate family property; The rest of the scattered officials confiscated their family property and distributed them to the border pass to fill the army, waiting for their meritorious service. Then Su Wan, Gongsun Bao, Boya, Zhong Gao, Meng Ding, and Yi Ding were escorted to the execution ground and knelt on the execution platform. The people hated his evil deeds, threw vegetables, fruits, and eggs on the execution platform, and scolded these corrupt officials and corrupt officials, which shows that the people hated them deeply.
"Bigan, if you kill us today, we can't save Yin Shang, we are watching you underground, and your end is not far away." The national teacher, Gongsun Bao, knelt on the torture platform and made nonsense. Cheng Bigan sat behind the desk, looked up at the sun above his head, stood and threw down the token, and said, "It's three o'clock in the afternoon, cut!" The executioner slashed it down, and the head fell to the ground. Although the national teacher Gongsun Leopard did not have a head, he was able to stand up and walk, and the head that fell to the ground laughed three times and said, "Bigan, you can't kill me." The onlookers were speechless. Bigan ordered people to let go of the vicious dog, and took away the head of the national teacher Gongsun Leopard, and the headless Gongsun Leopard fell to the ground and died, at this time the people cheered, and this move won the hearts of the people.
In March of the 25th year of Emperor Xin (1051 B.C.), the Shang army and the allied army of Youguo attacked Xuyi and Huaiyi in the east, seized the Jianghuai region, and in order to control the fishery and salt, turned to the south to attack Jiumiao, and the army entered the mountains, the Yangtze River basin, and it rained heavily. In this season, there are many rainy seasons, dark clouds cover the sky, and lightning is frequent, and it is extremely difficult to march the army. Di Xin called Zuo Jiang
, said: "Hurry up and find a place to shelter from the rain to rest for a while, and then travel lightly." It was at this time that the army was ambushed by the enemy. The army is alone and will inevitably be frustrated. There are many bamboo forests around, and the enemy army cut down the bamboo and sharpen it and throw it out, and the Yin Shang army has already suffered a large number of casualties before it has time to fortify. Fei Lian, Evil Lai led a large army to protect in front of Di Xin's chariot, and then Evil Lai rode forward alone, rushed towards the enemy army in the forest, and fought in the heavy rain, the water splashed everywhere, and the river was stained red with blood. Evil came to kill in the chaos of the army, Fei Lian covered Di Xin's chariot to leave, Yu Hou Xi led the army to flank down, killed the menacing enemy army, and camped around Asan with a combined army. The heavy rain has been falling non-stop, the movement of the army has been blocked, and it has been five days today, so such a protracted period of time consumes financial resources and is not good for the country. The next day, Di Xin sat in the big tent, Su Daji sat aside to accompany the wine, the wizard entered the tent and began to practice, took out the turtle shell and grilled it on the fire, cracking one after another, the wizard looked at the lines on the turtle shell, and exclaimed: "Your Majesty, the gods have sent heavy rain to stop the army from moving forward, which is a bad omen."
"But how can it be resolved?"
"The king returns to the court and sends a general to conquer and can."
"Okay, Lone knows," called out Youhou Xi, and the general Zuo Jiang said: "You Hou stays and continues to crusade against Jiu Miao, and the general Zuo Jiang will be left to you, you need to fight quickly and not for a long time."
"The minister receives the order," the general Zuo Jiang said, "the last general receives the order."
The rain stopped, Di Xin led the army back, and Youhou continued to fight across the Yangtze River, with Zuojiang as the vanguard. In June of the twenty-fifth year of Di Xin (1051 B.C.), Di Xin passed through the land and rewarded his retinue with five friends of Zai Zhu Bei, and returned to the court on the day of Gengjia. Youhou led the army to cross the Yangtze River expedition, all the way like a bamboo, the general left Xinjiang slashed countless enemies, and has been back to the old nest of Jiu Miao, Jiu Miao was forced to surrender, the good news spread to Chaoge, Di Xin Daxi celebrated in the star building. Singing and dancing on the star picking tower, Di Xin sat on the top and looked left and right, and said, "Why is there one less person on this banquet?" He also called the temple to say: "Where is Fei Qing?" Why don't you come to Lonely's celebration feast? Hurry up and pass Fei Qing to come. ”
The temple man stepped forward and bowed and said, "Back to the king, Dr. Fei has committed a crime and is under house arrest in the Fei Mansion, waiting for the king's verdict."
"What crime did Fei Qing commit? Why don't you know? ”
"The little ones don't dare to interfere in politics, I don't know."
"Who is so bold as to dare to put the lonely minister under house arrest."
"The little one doesn't dare to say," after finishing speaking, he looked at the prince sitting next to him, and Su Daji, who was sitting next to him, said: "Let you say, the king is here, what are you afraid of?"
"It's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
The crown prince Wu Geng stood up and said: "Father, Fei Zhong is not enough to kill the people, the embezzled money is millions of Qian Bei Peng, and his subordinate officials enclose land and occupy hundreds of acres of farmland to build mansions for him, and the people are full of complaints." Then he ordered someone to bring a few large boxes, and opened them full of Bei Peng and his accounts, and the prince Wu Geng presented the accounts and said: "All the evidence is here, here are the accounts and their stolen money embezzled by those officials, including the doctor Fei Zhong." Father, the son wanted to wait for you to triumph before reporting to you one by one, but since the father asked about the matter, the son played truthfully, and the son and his hundred officials impeached the recital, and asked the father to look at it. ”
"What kind of person Fei Qing is, don't you know what kind of person Lonely? You don't have to do this crown prince anymore, go back to the East Palace and reflect. ”
"Father, Yin Shang is already in danger, and if he doesn't rectify it, everyone will betray his relatives and leave."
"Lone is the Son of Heaven, who dares to oppose Lonely? You step down for me. ”
"The son of the minister retired," the prince Wu Geng bowed and bowed and withdrew, and then Jizi stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the prince has rectified the rule of officials, the politics are clear, the people love him, and the prince cannot be abolished!"
"Could it be that Lone is a faint king? Miko, aren't you under house arrest? Why are you still active in the court? ”
"The minister disturbs the king, the minister will leave the court, and no one will disturb the king's dream by your side, and the minister will retire here."
"Okay, since you want to leave, I can't keep you, so you can go." Wei Ziqi stood up and said: "Your Majesty, don't be like this, Your Majesty is destroying the Great Wall by yourself, who else will give you advice in the future."
"Brother Wang doesn't need to say much, he has his own good plan in his lonely heart."
Miko took off the crown above his head and turned to leave. When he left, he said, "Your Majesty, you have to take care!" At the same time, Wei Ziqi also left one after another. Di Xin sent someone to release the doctor Fei Zhong, and after the release, Fei Zhong immediately rushed to the Star Picking Tower, stood for a long time and knelt down and cried: "Your Majesty."
"Okay, don't be wronged, here's evidence of your embezzlement, and you dare to say that you are wronged," and then threw down the account and said, "What else do you have to say now?" At this time, Fei Zhongzhi, who was frightened, shivered, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, the minister is guilty."
"Your sins will be written down for you for the time being, tell me, what happened during the prince's imprisonment?"
"After the king left, the crown prince began to thoroughly investigate the shelter, beheaded many officials, and the national teacher was also killed." After hearing this, Su Daji became a little anxious and asked, "Is the younger brother of this palace okay?"
"Marquis him," Fei Zhong said with a sudden interruption, as if in deep thought.
"What's wrong with him?"
"Beheaded, the executioner is the prime minister."
"Uncle Wang," Su Daji was startled when she heard this, and cried bitterly, "Brother, brother," and then fainted. Seeing this, Di Xin immediately panicked and said, "Quickly pass on the imperial doctor, the imperial doctor." He also ordered his palace maid to help Su Daji into the middle palace, and then he entered the middle palace and sat beside the bed to watch Su Daji lying on the bed. Fei Zhong withdrew, and after a few hours, he brought the imperial doctor in, knelt down and bowed, "Your Majesty."
"No need to be polite, come and treat the lonely queen." A imperial physician sat outside the curtain to diagnose Su Daji's pulse, and then said: "Queen Su's mother fainted from her sadness and fright because of her blows and fright. Just now, the minister took the pulse of Niangniang, and felt that Niangniang was confused. ”
"How can I heal the lonely beauty?" Di Xin asked.
"It takes a seven-pronged exquisite heart, and this heart can only be possessed by saints."
Doctor Fei Zhong stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, I heard that the prime minister has this heart, the prime minister killed the mother's own brother, and everyone in the song city praised him as the virtuous minister of Yin Shang and a saint, so the bell must be tied to the bell."
"Uncle Wang," Di Xin looked out of the palace gate in a daze after hearing this.
