Chapter 644: Hard Buried
"Those who don't go will be regarded as being in the same party as the thieves!"
With the shouts of the lieutenants, the people of the city found a reason. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoWe are forced to not go. In this way, whoever comes, we can complain and then seek self-preservation.
A broken door was pushed open, and a disheveled girl, who had just walked out of the door, was pulled back by a pair of hands in an instant, and then there was a quarrel in the door. The people from the task force hurriedly stepped forward to check what was going on, and they heard an old man crying and saying, "Yan'er, Dad, I beg you, but you don't dare to go out." Look outside, how many good girls have died, if it weren't for your father and I kneeling on the ground and begging, I'm afraid you would be like those girls, an incomplete corpse. If we suffer a loss, we will suffer a loss, what is the name of the daughter in troubled times, it is not worth it! Listen to my father's words, let's honestly suffer a dumb loss, and when it's too peaceful, let's go to the countryside and find an honest man to marry. ”
The girl broke free from the old man's hand and said firmly: "Dad, I am a person who has died once, and now I am not afraid of life, but I am still afraid of death?" Think about what kind of life our family has lived since I was born? Dad, you do some small business, big households ask for money, hooligans extort, the government oppresses, and you can't eat a meal of dumplings during the New Year all year round. It wasn't until Grandpa Guo and Hou Ye and his son took charge of our Shandong Denglai, implemented the new policy, and rectified the rule of officials, that our family lived a worry-free life. Have you forgotten all this, Dad? Dad, you have taught us since we were children, we must be grateful to be a man, and now I am a broken flower and a willow, and what I can do is to expose the evil deeds of these beasts. ”
When the old man saw that the girl didn't listen to him, he cried out anxiously: "Yan'er, if you want to go to me, I just don't want you to be in danger." Although I have four children, but the soldiers are in trouble, and now you are the only one left, if you have something to do, how can you let me live... ”
(嫚 is a unique name for girls in Jiaodong, similar to Nier, Yadan and other titles.) )
The girl saw her father crying, and she cried too, but her position did not change at all: "Dad, I know that you are for my good, but my daughter didn't participate in the literacy class run by Master Hou before." Mr. Na said that regardless of men and women, death is heavier than Mount Tai and lighter than a feather. I don't dare to compare with Tarzan, but at least, I can't be inferior to the feathers in the urn city. After saying that, the girl shook off her father's hands, pushed the door and walked out of the house. I don't know whether it was infected by the girl's emotions or intimidated by the decree of the government, the people began to gradually go out of the house, at first one person and two, then three people and four people, gradually, from the ruins of the home, the people began to rush to the government in groups. Although there were men and women, old and young, their expressions were firm and their steps were steady, like a stream of iron surging from a blast furnace. This iron flow will eventually rush out of Dengzhou, sweep the Central Plains, and sweep away the thousand-year-old rotten roots. And the official gentry in the urn city were the first victims of Tieliu.
A high platform was erected in the middle of the urn city to try the rebels. The chief examiner is none other than Xiong Rulin, the former Dengzhou customs supervisor known to many people in Dengzhou. This old gentleman was originally imprisoned by Gu Tiyun and other rebel leaders because of the whereabouts of the more than two million silver dollars in customs taxes. The soft grinder asked him to tell the whereabouts of the money. If it weren't for this money, with the number of officials and gentry he offended on the ground in Dengzhou, he would have been hacked to death eighteen times. Now, Xiong Rulin, who was rescued by Zhang Xiaohu from the traitors, this usually square and serious old gentleman, has become a life-urging judge in the eyes of many rebels.
The trial began on time, probably because the temperature of the iron flow was too high, so it was full of gunpowder at the beginning. The girl, who insisted on reporting despite her father's objections, opened fire first, and she came to the front of the crowd, pulled out two fat-headed and big-eared brothers named Zhang Heng and Zhang Yincai from among the rebels, and accused them of often going to their stalls to molest women from good families, and bringing rebels to her house to rape themselves when the whole city was in turmoil. Speaking of the heartache, the girl didn't even care about shame, and tore off her clothes to show everyone the scars on her body. On the chest, back, and arms, one by one is shocking.
Naturally, the two brothers were unwilling to die, and at first they desperately denied it, but soon a neighbor testified. Seeing that he couldn't deny it, one of the two brothers named Zhang Yincai scolded: "Shameless stinky bitch, you are naked in public, what kind of good thing can you be?" Lao Tzu is on you, how to drop, come and kill Lao Tzu. ”
Before the girl could say anything, the official presiding over the trial let out a sneer and said, "Zhang Yincai, okay, then I will fulfill your wishes." Come! With an order, the wolf-like soldier held Zhang Yincai down in an instant, waiting for the next instruction. The official smiled again and asked the girl, "Girl, how did this person hurt you?" The girl was a little shy, but after thinking about what she was afraid of since she was like this, she pointed to Zhang Yincai's lower body and said, "There." The official in charge of the trial smiled and said, "Brothers, it's all clear, right?" According to the law, whether it is the law of Nanzhong or the law of Hong Wuye's Daming, the relevant evidence and equipment must be kept in the office. Our job is to take down the relevant evidence and put it in the official management. Someone came, took away Zhang Heng and Zhang Yincai's criminal tools, and disposed of them after the trial was completed. ”
Hearing the deputy interrogator say this, Rao is Xiong Rulin, who is not smiling on weekdays, and he can't help but be embarrassed. Such a reckless means and such an interpretation of the law has always been something that only Liang Guogong's subordinates can do. However, this way of dealing with the crimes of these two people is reasonable.
"Southern barbarians, you can't die well when the sky thunders."
"At this moment, do you remember that there is a heavenly god above your head? It's late! Xiong Rulin snorted coldly in his heart and acquiesced to the deputy judge's actions.
Seeing that he was about to be castrated, the two fat-headed and big-eared brothers of the Zhang family suddenly let out the same wail as before the pig was killed. It's a pity, where is the soldier in Nanzhong who is Jia Baoyu who pities the fragrance and cherishes the jade? What's more, they are not Lin Daiyu. (Oh!) It seems that now the author's grandfather is fighting with the Nanyue army to win one Buddha and Nirvana and two Buddhas are born. A few of the soldiers grabbed their sharp knives, took off their trousers, and without saying a word, stabbed them, and the two brothers let out a terrible wail, and almost killed them instantly. But although they are not dead for the time being, they are almost the same, after all, these soldiers are not professional eunuch makers, and they don't even have the skill of plowing pigs and geldings. That hand, but maybe.
What makes them even more desperate is that in the face of such a tragic scene, the melon-eating masses do not have the slightest mercy, they only have the joy of alleviating their hatred and the determination to continue to punish them. This scene was written many years later by a writer named Yuanyuan in a book called Hard Buried. In the book, although the chairman of the Jianghan Provincial Writers Association, who eats the imperial court's money, does not directly judge it, but uses words to expound her opinion: This is the destruction and degradation of human ethics. It's just that the descendants of the people who ate melons back then quickly came out to criticize her, and when your family kills and robs, you are immoral when you kill and rob people, and you are immoral when you forcibly seize land, and you are only morally degraded when you kill your domestic birds and beasts. If so, we strongly support the fall. According to the words of Hu Shi, a well-known ancestor in modern times, landlords, as a class, deserve to die. If in doubt, go to your grandfather theory.
With the beginning, the people who eat melons are naturally rushing forward, some mothers cry that their sons were killed, some complain that their property was looted, one tragic case after another was filed in the narration, one by one the perpetrators were pulled out of the prison forbidden area, and one by one the high-spirited officials and gentry lowered their heads. One by one, the family members of the gentry began to cry loudly, as if all the grievances in heaven and earth had been added to them. There are very few writers and literati who use their brilliant pens to describe this tragic scene. It's like a movie shot by a famous director.
However, it is another thing to use a poem "Ma Wei" written by Yuan Mei, who was not born at this time, to describe the situation of these people.
"Don't sing the song of hatred when you were old, the world also has its own galaxy. In the stone trench village, there are more tears than in the palace of eternal life. ”
It's a pity that a famous international director only saw the love of the lame general's life and death, but he didn't think about whether those people on the Taiping Wheel were burdened with blood debts. It is a tragedy that they drowned in the sea. However, their lives are worth money, and the lives of tens of millions of ordinary people in Shandong, Hebei, Jiangsu, Anhui, Henan and other places are blown by the wind?
However, there are also a few people who always squint at forty-five degrees, looking indifferent and generous to death, including Xu Yuansong's father-in-law Gu Tiyun. If Gu Tiyun only looks at his appearance, he will decide to be very much like the real protagonist of this book. Although he is old, he only has fine wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, his skin is fair, his figure is slender, and his clothes are neat and neat. If you don't have the braid at the back of your head, it's almost perfect. To put it mildly, if he can live to the nineties to become a star in a cosmic power, he will definitely be able to fascinate countless Chinese brainless girls. Slap face, small eyes. If you keep your hair parted and change into a suit, you're a long-legged Oba, and you definitely don't teach anything. He himself did not live up to this good skin, and in the face of the accusation of the Nanyue Army that he killed Xu Yuansong and his wife, he said with a nonchalant face: "This official has no fault, only merit." The general trend of the world, the Ming court has exhausted its qi, and the Qing Dynasty is prosperous with the sky. I'm just going with the flow. Although family affection is heavy, it can't compare to the rise and fall of the world. What's more, the Holy Lord of the Qing Dynasty not only promised Corporal Lixian, but also promised my daughter the title of a loyal martyr. The emperor's grace is vast, and it is difficult for me to repay it in case. But you pirates, poisoners, and sage disciples, will sooner or later be classified as traitors. If there is any crime or fault on the part of this official, it means that this official was unfortunately defeated and fell into the hands of you! ”
It seems that it is not enough to enjoy it in terms of righteousness, Gu Tiyun continued: "On the other hand, your master, the pseudo-rebel Liang Guogong Li thief Shouhan is not only tyrannical, but also has a loss in righteousness, and his private morality is even more erosive. It also snatches wives and daughters, and mothers and daughters @ both. In the future, there will be a little bit of history books, and the so-called dirty Tang stinky men are inferior. Although I don't dare to compare with the saint, compared to your Liang Guogong, I can be regarded as a gentleman. ”
When several deputy judges heard Gu Tiyun's arrogant words and viciously attack their own lord, they couldn't hold it back, and they ordered their subordinates to go up and slap Gu Tiyun's mouth.
"Can you beat me until my teeth are broken, or even cut out my tongue, can you cover up the ugly things of your master and block the mouths of the people of the world?! Can the infamy of thousands of generations be interrupted?! "Gu Tiyun's performance is quite a bit of the demeanor of Prime Minister Wen Tianxiang.
(Whoosh!) A brick slammed down on the head of the unkind author. "You're too Yagami!" Prime Minister Wen angrily scolded the author in Ji'an Tu for being stupid. "Lao Tzu has never changed the clothes of his homeland until he died, do you compare Lao Tzu with this group of people who are easy to shave their hair and are shy and enemies?" )
The chief judge, Xiong Rulin, did not interrupt Gu Tiyun's words, but listened to him seriously, and then smiled and clapped his hands, and then said: "Gu Tiyun, you are a gentleman and a frank egg." You may have forgotten that the old man and Brigadier Xu Yuansong still have some contacts in private. The old man is not ignorant of your past. Even the Han Gaozu of the year must be afraid of being a villager! Because of what, I know the bottom line for you! According to Brigade Commander Xu, your old man was not an ordinary merry man when he was young. You were originally a poor scholar in Tai'an, and you studied hard, and after you were admitted to Xiucai, in order to be promoted as soon as possible, you went to Junjing Academy to study hard. Of course, it is also because the academy can provide food and lodging, and there is more silver than other places! It's also because you have a good skin, and you have a talent and fame. As soon as I entered the school, I hooked up with the little sister of the academy, your teacher's daughter. Relying on your eloquence, soon you will secretly fall in love and come together. However, for the sake of fame and wealth, you abandoned your little junior sister before going to the provincial and township exams. He married the daughter of your master, and soon had two daughters. Forget it, the person who abandons his wife, there is not much more than you in the world, and there is no less than you. There are a few people kneeling here who are cleaner than you. What's even more shameless is that your teacher was arrested and imprisoned because he was involved in the eunuch list, and when I heard that the head of your academy had a deep friendship with Donglin, you turned your face and turned around to reunite with your junior sister. However, the current Mrs. Gu has been married to you for many years, and the two daughters have been filial to you, but you repay them with murder. And Liang Guogong, whom you scolded, ignored everyone's opposition, insisted on taking the current Duchess Liang Guogong as his wife, and the current Duchess Guogong was just a maid back then. The matter of his mother and daughter is certainly criticized by the world, but the gentleman's fault is like the eclipse of the sun and the moon; Yes, everyone sees it; What's more, everyone looks up to it. Since Liang Guogong has done something, he is willing to bear it, and he has not abandoned it at all. It is also given a name, included in the family tree, and enshrined in the ancestral hall. This is the real gentleman's openness! You are more moral than the lord, are you worthy to open your mouth?!! ”
In the end, it is a generation of famous Confucians, and it is reasonable to scold people, citing scriptures. What's even worse is to tear Gu someone's face and list the ugly things of the year one by one. One of the characteristics of the Chinese people is that it doesn't matter if you commit treason to the enemy, but you can't do something ungrateful about abandoning your wife. Otherwise, you will be spurned forever. If you don't believe it, you can refer to the two dramas "Shiro Visits His Mother" and "The Case of Quanmei". They are all recruited as horses, and they all have wives at home, why is there such a big difference in treatment between Yang Shilang and Chen Shimei? !
The words of the presiding judge Xiong Rulin completely exceeded Gu Tiyun's expectations, this is really a foreign country - the creditor is really a dog. He tried to defend himself, but the people who ate melons stopped doing it. They began to gather fire to Gu Tiyun, and an old lady opened the fire first, "Gu Tiyun, you are not a human thing, I am young and widowed, and my family has three acres of thin fields to support my life." However, you colluded with the government to send the sprinkling of fire to our orphans and widows, and forced us to donate three acres of thin land to your name. Later, Hou Ye implemented the new policy of the national government, and you sent me back the land in a pretend, and forced me to act with you in public to receive your good. Your skin is really thicker than the walls of Dengzhou City. God opened his eyes, let Admiral Zhang catch you, you just wait for Wan Ling Chi! ”
As soon as the old lady's words fell, a young man said again: "Gu Tiyun, do you remember me, I am the who ran away from your house." All my land has been given to you, and I have been sold into slavery to you. You beat and insult me on weekdays, but later when the Guogong implemented the new policy, you sent a nameless fire to my head, and my leg was discounted by you. You saw that I was useless, so you abandoned me in the streets. If it weren't for the kindness of a merchant from Nanzhong who took me in to watch the door of the store, I would have starved to death on the streets right now. Gu Tiyun, no matter how a person like you deserves, you deserve to die, and you should go to the eighteenth layer of hell after death. ”
More and more accusers began to appear, and Gu Tiyun's face became more and more pale, which was actually normal, because he was facing a form of people's war that was hated by a writer called Yuanyuan in later generations. When it comes to war, people are more likely to think of knives, guns and weapons, but in fact, real war can also be a chat over tea. Therefore, the author can only ridicule the outdated theory of the people's war that was popular in a certain period of time. A real people's war is the mobilization of the people of a country or even the whole world to fight against the reactionaries in various situations in order to fight for their own interests. This kind of battle can be guerrilla warfare, a keyboard bureau, and naturally a criticism meeting. Now in this judgment field, Gu Tiyun alone has to bear the anger of the entire Dengzhou people, not to mention him, even if he claims to be the reincarnation of the Buddha, he will be wiped out.
When the sun was in the west, the presiding judge felt that the fire was almost over, and decided to end the trial. He first waved his hand to everyone to calm down, and then began to announce the verdict, according to the law of the Ming Dynasty, all the main offenders will be Ling Chi, and the accomplices will be sentenced to death. However, according to the opinions of Admiral Zhang and Fan Xiaozeng, anyone who has the merit of reporting can be punished. After a complicated calculation, about 1,000 people are among the unpardonable crimes and will be handed over to Zhang Xiaohu. The rest, because of their merits, were sentenced to military labor.
The so-called military labor is to go to mines, workshops, and lumber yards to serve as official slaves. How long they can survive in a dangerous working environment and ultra-high-intensity physical labor depends on whether their ancestors really accumulate virtue.
"Everyone said, what should these bandit leaders do?"
Zhang Xiaohu has much more experience in dealing with these problems than Xiong Rulin, a founder who has read poetry and books. He looked at the hundreds of freshly cut off human heads hanging from the city walls, holding a huge microphone in his hand, and asked questions to the excited crowd of onlookers.
"One person, one knife! Rip them off! ”
"That's right! Cut them to pieces! ”
The crimes of Gu Tiyun and others really aroused public indignation. In the eyes of the people, if these people are also allowed to enjoy the treatment of being cut off with a knife, it is inevitably too cheap for them. Thus all sorts of strange punishments arose in the infinite wisdom of the masses. Rao is Zhang Xiaohu crisscrossing thousands of miles of sea borders, and Xiong Rulin has read thousands of volumes of poetry and books, and he may not be able to have such wisdom and means.
In the end, under the strong leadership of Xiong Rulin, who was still kind-hearted after all, Zhang Xiaohu adopted this suggestion:
The people of Dengzhou present lined up, and each person had a piece of masonry in his hand, and the masonry should not exceed the size of a red brick. It is to use the bricks and stones thrown from the hands of thousands of people to smash these sanctimonious bandit leaders to death.
Afterwards, the people of Dengzhou swept away the flesh and blood and bricks and discarded them into the sea.
"They are the most filthy and pickled things in the world, and they can't stay in the city!"
