After Hangzhou Mansion Tongzhi left from the Golden House, it was like being beaten with chicken blood and showed a very excited mood. Xiao Rui drew a big pie for him, not only to keep him safe, but also to go further, the position of prefect, how can he not be excited?

I smirked, I smirked.

The next afternoon.

Hangzhou Thorn Shi hurried from Jinhua Mansion, came to the Jin Mansion non-stop, and met Xiao Rui: "Xiaguan Hangzhou Thorn Shi Zhang Sanqian meets His Royal Highness King Xian!" His Royal Highness came to Hangzhou, and the lower officials failed to meet him in time, and the lower officials were willing to accept the crime of faux pas! ”

Xiao Rui looked at him as old, but at the age of sixty, he looked like he was seventy years old, extremely old, and he was ready to pay tribute this year. Xiao Rui inquired about the character and merits of this Zhang Thorn History, and the people had a good reputation for him, he was a cadre when he was young, and later governed a government, with outstanding political achievements, but unfortunately because he went out of the house, he did not sit in the position of Hangzhou Thorn History until he was in his fifties. Now that he is old and has reached the age of ear shun, he has a weak heart, and his management of Hangzhou is becoming more and more sparse and slightly mediocre.

However, we should look at the overall achievements and merits of people, and we cannot be limited to these two years.

Xiao Rui is ruthless to corrupt officials, but he has special respect for honest officials. He hurriedly got up and helped Zhang Sanqian up, and said with a smile: "Lord Zhang, please get up quickly, when this king first arrived in your land, he came to Hangzhou Mansion to take Wei Haichuan without telling you, and it was this king who invited Lord Zhang Haihan." ”

"No, no, no!" Zhang Sanqian hurriedly waved his hand and said with emotion: "Your Highness, the subordinate officials are old and mediocre, and they have no intention of being able to govern Yangzhou well, and they have let their subordinate officials cause a big disaster. Your Highness rest assured, the lower officials will ask the court for guilt! ”

Xiao Rui smiled and did not stop it, but said: "This time, Your Majesty asked this king to inspect the state capital, the main purpose is to discover and eliminate local tumors. is such a villain like Wei Haichuan, who is good at deception and disguise, and it is understandable that Lord Zhang did not find out his true face. But this king is very worried, are there other corrupt officials in Hangzhou? What about other prefectures in Hangzhou? ”

Zhang Sanqian was silent, he couldn't answer Xiao Rui's question, the official is honest and upright, this seems to have become a pursuit, but greed for money and power has become his nature.

"This king said a few more words, which made Lord Zhang smile." Xiao Rui changed the topic and said: "Lord Zhang, this king has a reluctant request, Wei Haichuan will be tried tomorrow, and this king wants Lord Zhang to be the chief judge." ”

"This..."Zhang Sanqian hesitated.

Xiao Rui explained: "Although this king is the title of the prince, but after all, he leads the official position of Wupin supervising the imperial history, and this time he directly calls the soldiers of the guard, all by virtue of the gold medal given by His Majesty, but His Majesty has explained to this king, and he cannot use it indiscriminately, if Wei Haichuan did not send someone to assassinate this king, this king would not have called the capital of Hangzhou." ”

"In addition, Lord Zhang is the history of Hangzhou, and it is more fair and disciplined for you to preside over the trial, and it is also beneficial to Lord Zhang, at least it is not too late to make amends, and it can also prevent the wisdom accumulated in most of his life from being affected by a small Wei Haichuan before Zhishi."

After listening to Xiao Rui's explanation, Zhang Sanqian sighed, he has been an official for forty years, and he has seen too much fraud in the officialdom, and he can also figure out what King Xian is thinking in front of him. It's nothing more than treating himself as a gunman and keeping himself out, but he has to admit that King Xian is a yang conspiracy, frank and open, and speaks to his heart.

He has had a rough life, but at the end of his life, he made a disadvantage to the royal people, and the subordinate officials who governed the territory actually murdered the court officials and assassinated the prince, which is a big crime, and he is also to blame as a boss. Joint and several liability applies.

He returned to his hometown in brocade clothes and went back with honesty and fame, but he was punished by the imperial court, and his reputation and face were lost, and he returned to his hometown in disgrace.

And if you are the chief judge, then there is no fault of misemploying people, and it will naturally not affect your reputation.

Zhang Sanqian didn't hesitate much, got up directly, and bowed his hand: "Your Highness, the lower official is willing to serve as the chief judge!" Eradicate corrupt officials and corrupt officials for the imperial court! ”

"Good! This king really didn't misread Lord Zhang! Xiao Rui smiled and nodded.

Let Zhang Sanqian serve as the chief judge, Xiao Rui can stay out of the matter, and the matter will be passed to the national capital, and it has nothing to do with him, he is just a victim!

"Your Highness, the lower officials are afraid that there will be mistakes in the process of the main trial, so I ask Your Highness to listen and guide the lower officials." Since Zhang Sanqian agreed to preside over the trial, he quickly hit the road, knowing that he was a gun, so this time he would be the gun of King Xian.

Seeing Zhang Sanqian on the road like this, Xiao Rui was very pleased.

The time soon came to the day of the opening of the ya.

In the past two days, Hangzhou Tongzhi has listed the guilty people who are in the same stream as Wei Haichuan, he is very insidiously choose to secretly investigate and collect evidence, he has followed Wei Haichuan for so many years, as his deputy, who has a problem can't hide him at all, so he wants to investigate.

In addition, in the past three days, no officials or family members have come to surrender themselves, and they are all holding on to luck. Since this is the case, then Xiao Rui will not show mercy to his subordinates.

The time has come, and the prefect's yamen will start the trial.

The front of the yamen was crowded with people watching the trial, and they all crowded into the street outside the yamen, densely packed with figures, estimated to be thousands.

Zhang Sanqian was wearing an official robe and sat on top of the official hall, and Xiao Rui sat on the left side, observing the case. As Zhang Sanqian patted the wood, he shouted: "Today, this king opened a government to try Wei Haichuan, the prefect of Hangzhou, and ascended to the court!" ”

"Mighty...," shouted the officials on either side with water and fire sticks.

"Take the prisoner Wei Haichuan!" Zhang Sanqian drank immediately.

Subsequently, the soldiers of Hangzhou Dusi escorted Wei Haichuan to the court.

Wei Haichuan's hair was messy, his expression was in a trance, and he seemed to come back to his senses when he was under the court.

When he looked at the familiar public hall in the past, above the main hall was the plaque of "Mirror Hanging", and the place where he should have been sitting was sitting at this time, but he was standing under the hall, standing in a position that he would not have thought of at all.

The two locations are very close, but they are worlds apart.

"Smack!" Zhang Sanqian knocked on the startled wood and asked, "Is the hall Wei Haichuan, the prefect of Hangzhou?" ”

Wei Haichuan was an official after all, so he didn't put shackles on him, nor did he force him to kneel, although there was no explicit provision in the Great Xia Kingdom that he could not punish the sergeant, but there were also hidden habits in this regard.

"Yes!" Wei Haichuan came back to his senses and arched his hand, his expression loveless.

Since he knew who the assassin was, Wei Haichuan knew that he was finished, assassinating the prince was a serious crime, according to the "Great Xia Law", he was in a decisive sentence, and all his family members were reduced to slavery and exiled for three thousand miles! In addition, he plotted to kill the officials of the imperial court, embezzled and accepted bribes, and was punished for several crimes, and it is estimated that he may be Ling Chi.

Ling Chi... When Wei Haichuan thought of this word, he trembled all over, and a cold shiver swept through his body, and the whole person fell into great fear.

Zhang Sanqian asked: "Wei Haichuan, you are the prefect of Hangzhou, you are not grateful to Your Majesty for your holy grace, you are ashamed of your trust in the imperial court, and you are not for the benefit of the people. Now this official condemns you to five deadly sins! ”

"First, the assassination of His Royal Highness King Xian, the evidence is conclusive, and the prisoner has confessed that you instructed him, can you plead guilty?"

"Second, he designed to kill the court officials and brutally killed two lives! The prisoner has confessed that you instructed him, can you plead guilty? ”

"Third, when the people beat the drum and cry out for grievances, you occupy the woman of a good family, and send someone to threaten her husband and injure him, can you confess?"

"Fourth, you have a large number of antique calligraphy and paintings, gold and silver hidden in your house, and you are suspected of accepting property, can you confess?"

"Fifth, there are people who avenge their grievances and accuse you of bending the law for personal gain, and under your protection, your son Wei Ying has done all the evil things, oppressed the people, robbed the people's daughters, robbed people's property, caused death and injury, and was punished with bad punishments, can you plead guilty?"

Although Zhang Sanqian's voice was old, it contained angry emotions, and the five deadly sins were directed at Wei Haichuan!

Outside the yamen, the people watching applauded.

Wei Haichuan couldn't hold on any longer, knelt down, and said, "The lower official is guilty, and I implore His Royal Highness to spare the lower official's family, they are innocent!" ”

Zhang Sanqian said: "Since you confessed, then sign and draw a pledge." ”

After speaking, Hangzhou Tongzhi handed over the confession to Wei Haichuan, and he trembled and signed and confessed all the crimes.

"Now that you have confessed your guilt, wait for the final conviction of the imperial court." After Zhang Sanqian finished speaking in a deep voice, Zhang Sanqian picked up another account and said: "This account is the person who colluded with Wei Haichuan in Hangzhou Mansion to form a party for personal gain, His Royal Highness King Xian has given you three days to surrender, since you don't cherish it, and you have a fluke mentality, then don't blame the official for being polite." ”

"Someone! According to the list and people on the accounts, all start arresting! Severe punishment will not be loaned! ”

"Yes!" The officer of the execution chamber immediately received the order.

Zhang Sanqian said in a deep voice: "Since Wei Haichuan has confessed, but considering that the evidence is still insufficient, this official has asked His Royal Highness King Xian, and now he will raid the Wei Mansion and collect evidence!" Can Tian Qianhu be available? ”

Tian Hu stepped forward and hugged his fists and said: "Please ask Tian Qianhu to supervise the government personnel to raid the Wei Mansion, record all kinds of gold, silver, jewelry, calligraphy, painting and antiques in detail, and classify and collect them." After the stolen money is counted, it needs to be shipped back to Kyoto! ”

"Yes!" Tian Hu responded.

"In that case, let's leave first." Zhang Sanqian struck the startling wood again.

said that it was a trial, but it was more like going through the motions, Wei Haichuan directly pleaded guilty, and then signed and detained, and this trial does not need to be full of twists and turns.

Although it is a formality, it is a joy for the people, and it is the final word!

Subsequently, the soldiers were divided into two ways, the officer of the torture room led people to arrest the suspects, and Tian Hu led people to start raiding the house!

Xiao Rui was more interested in raiding his home, and immediately sat in the Wei Mansion himself.

Soon, the raid was underway.

"Report! Discover a secret room in the Wei Mansion! There were five chests of silver, a total of 500,000 taels of silver! ”

"Report! Discover a compartment in the study! Found 10,000 taels of gold! ”

"Report! In the study, there are ten pieces of white jade horses, one jade cabbage, one blood coral, and twenty pairs of precious calligraphy and paintings......"

"Report! Ten pieces of fine tribute porcelain were found in the bedroom, and twenty-three pieces of antiques from the previous dynasty..."

"Report! A total of 35 pieces of agate and night pearls were found......"

With boxes of silver, boxes of treasures, and pieces of calligraphy, paintings, and calligraphy moved out, they were all piled up in the courtyard, and the recorder kept singing and harmonizing, making everyone swallow their saliva.

Nima, how much does this cost!

On the other side, Jin Zhengyi arranged five old stewards of the Chamber of Commerce, who were proficient in treasure appreciation, and began to evaluate these copied treasures, Xiao Rui needed to know how much money it was to copy a Wei Mansion for silver!
