Chapter 12 of the Flying Dragon (5)
'There is no buying and selling, no killing.' This sentence from the young master of the Wang family sounded awkward, and it was equally awkward to say, but it couldn't offset the happy mood when Wang Xiaoliu relayed it, because such a sentence made him dominate the conversation at the beginning, and made the somewhat confused soldiers cast admiring glances.
"The fifth brother is not bad at what he said, if there is no tooth man to collect the dirt from it and mediate in the middle, these thieves have no way out, how can they still be traitors."
Wang Zhongde yesterday helped Zunyi Dao to arrest the tooth man Cui Ba, who conspired to collude with the rebellion, and really showed a small face in the mansion, and now the officials in the mansion may not know, but most of the ministers in the yamen have heard that the Wang Sijun general from Guiyang Mansion will make a good fist and kick, and put down five or six servants in Cui's mansion with three fists and two feet.
Although he is not usually a playful person, but his mind is naturally there, Wang Xingping said this sentence, even if the tone is strange, but after thinking about it, it is all reasonable, sometimes he is also thinking about where his fifth brother figured out these many ways, Wang Zhongde has also been enlightened in Wei Xue, knows some words, and Mr. Wei Xue has never heard of any sage who said this.
"What does the old saying say? The car and boat shop should be killed if he is not guilty. Liao Si is also helping beside him, the reputation of the tooth people in the people, there is no need for Liao Si to add footnotes, just this proverb can be seen.
In the morning of the trial, Wang Xingping's entourage and soldiers naturally could not go to the hall to observe. With Deputy Envoy Chen, Wang Xingping's safety can also be guaranteed, it is better to have some seasonal snacks in the Zeng Yang shop opposite the county government, and say something about rice wine, just to relieve yesterday's fatigue, from the upstairs you can also see the wall at the entrance of the county government, the archway behind the wall stands abruptly, and it looks like it is in front of you from this side.
On both sides of the instrument door is the powder wall that expands outward, and the wall is eight-character, so it is called the eight-character wall, and the commonly known as the eight-character yamen is derived from this.
The wall has only been newly repaired for ten years, and the bamboo shed on the top of the wall was newly replaced last year, if it was in the past, it was the place where official documents were posted and the list of subjects was published, and most of the people who lingered there were people who could read and hyphenate and understand the latest laws and regulations of the imperial court, and ordinary people and hawkers came to do business, and many were driven away.
Today is an exception, the front of the powder wall on both sides of the county government gate is very clean, but many people gather at the archway to look inside, Cui Economy was arrested, or because of collusion with thieves, it is really a new thing in this Zunyi County, it is a lot of people have come to observe, hoping to have some conversation in the crowd in the afternoon.
There was a table in the corner of the upstairs of Zeng Yangdian, and the middle-aged man glanced at the county yayi gate uneasily, there were already a lot of people, and when he turned his head, he changed his face to flatter the official in front of him, and handed over a wrapper.
"Here are two hundred foot reports, please accept the camp with a smile."
After the Song and Yuan dynasties, the provincial Mo law was implemented, and the calculation of coins in the city was not consistent with 1,000 texts, only by adding a full word, otherwise it would be only seven or eight hundred texts. And two hundred yuan money with a burden will never be a paper banknote, if it is two hundred Ming treasure banknotes, with today's officials, even half a penny of silver is not worth it, the private exchange will only be lower, take it out is a slap in the face, this burden can only be copper money.
The official's face on the other side darkened as soon as he brushed it.
"Hou Quan, what are you doing, if it weren't for the fact that you asked someone to lobby with my mother, I wouldn't have come to see you today, to tell you the truth, Cui Ba committed not an ordinary crime, and I wouldn't have violated the law of the country for such a blockage."
The man on the other side smiled again, "What did Guan Ying say, this is a little bit of the eldest lady of my family, I just ask Guan Ying to take care of Grandfather Cui in it, and there are another hundred times, but they are divided into sections." ”
The man who was called the camp was in his forties, and his black face didn't look like he, and his temper was as hard as his face, it was Su Pu, the prisoner of the Zunyi Mansion Prison. The man on the opposite side, Hou Quan, is a servant of Cui Chenhao's family, and Su Pu's old mother's family is a little close, and Cui Ba's daughter Nineteen Niang is married to the Hou family, whether it is a bandit or a traitor, although it is a big crime, but the daughter who has been married does not matter, and the Cui family will be implicated this time. But only this daughter came forward to rescue her father, Su Pu has always been upright, but first, she can't hinder the old lady's affection, and secondly, the nineteenth mother of the Cui family wants to save her father, it is also human nature, and there is nothing wrong with it, he just wants to come forward to warn him, so that those who have the heart to ask for temporary death, everything has to wait for the public opinion in the county hall.
Chen Huangsheng is also interesting, he instructed the people of the county government to arrest Cui Ba, and put the person in the government office, although this Cui Ba is a tooth person, and his reputation is not good on weekdays, but Su Pu has never been such a snob, seeing this suffer, he didn't say that he fell into the well, everything in prison was done impartially.
If Su Pu wanted to make him believe that a tooth like Cui Ba would collude with Hongmiao to rebel, he wouldn't believe it, but he only said that he was helping to sell the stolen goods, but he was like this. Just helping the thief sell the stolen goods is helping the thief, if there is no channel on the ground that can ship, how can the thief become bigger? So in Su Pu's opinion, it is also appropriate to let Cui Ba suffer some hardships this time, and in the case of the Cui family, it will not kill him.
It was only the day before that the envoy of Guizhou had passed from Zunyi, and the governor of Guizhou, Zhang Heming, instructed the officers and troops of the three guards of Chishui, Pu'an, and Annan to divide their troops and march forward, and repelled a group of Tuyi who had invaded the west of Shuixi in Guizhou, and then counterattacked into Wusa in Sichuan along the road.
The government of Sichuan has suffered a clear loss, and it cannot be said that it is not Guizhou's, and the cross-border use of troops, as long as the reason is justified, the imperial court will not punish it, not to mention that now that there is such a big victory, even the charge of opening border provocations without permission can be planted in the officialdom of Guizhou. After all, the chieftain of Wusa Province returned to Xuzhou to control himself, and went to the neighbor's house to fight the grass valley, and the neighbor wanted to defend himself, and there was no reason to cross the line without losing his hand, even if this matter was caused by the cabinet, it would not be said that Guizhou was at fault, not to mention that the governor in the south was now a red officer.
This time, I took advantage of this gust of wind to catch a tooth man who colluded with Guizhou to rebel, and I don't know how the local government will deal with the Cui family.
The incident happened in Guizhou, but the prisoner was arrested in Banzhou, and the outsiders did not know what was inside, and it was really lively to watch.
…………
Cui Chenhao knelt in the lobby and Chen was wronged, Liu Xianzun could only stare at Du Dafu with big eyes, the person was not arrested by them, and even this case was only recently told to them by Deputy Envoy Chen, but Deputy Envoy Chen did his best, and he didn't mention a word before the two words, and now the prisoner is brought, and Master Liu is sitting in the hall but doesn't know where to start.
"Master Mingjian, the villain is acquainted with Ma Heimei of Bai Ma Tong, who would have thought that guy would collude with Hong Miao to do such a thing."
"The villain does Chinese business on weekdays, and he has always followed the rules, he has never been a traitor, and he does not dare to violate the king's law, who would have thought that some unintentional words after being drunk would make the master of the Wang family suffer this disaster."
"This is all an unexpected thing, but since something happened, the villain also wants to try his best to make up for it, but because of this, the villain must be convicted, but the villain is absolutely unconvinced, the so-called ignorant is not guilty, and none of the court decrees have said that others should also be connected, not to mention that I have never intersected with the chief of Nayi."
After a trip, he said that he was not leaking, and secretly glanced at Xu Guoqi, the silent household official on the other end of the hall, and thought back to what he had just said, there should be nothing wrong with it. Xu Guoqi is in charge of the six houses in the county, which is a place with a small official position and a lot of oil and water, and has had a lot of contact with Cui Ba, and when he came to mention him, he helped him bring a message to Cui Ba's prison and told him not to bite indiscriminately, and now he has installed clay sculptures in the hall.
Tongzhi Zhao Maode and the promoter Feng Fengyan and Cui Ba have nothing to do with it, but they all look like they are watching from the wall.
"What Cui Economy has done, he really doesn't have a conscience." The young man behind Vice Envoy Chen didn't seem to notice these episodes, and said it to himself.
"This is a little friend of the old man, and he was recently entrusted by his teacher to come to visit the old man." Responding to Wang Xingping's questioning gaze first is equivalent to reciting his speech.
As Chen Huangsheng, the teacher of the scholar next to him would probably be a fellow villager if he was not in the same year, otherwise he would never have made a special trip to let the students come to visit, and the deputy envoy of a province, the local magistrate of Zhengsipin, is not a person who says he will see him. Looking at the clothes of this young man, I am afraid that he has not even taken the student examination, you must know that even if he wants to see the officials of the Taoist Department, especially those who are still from Jinshi, they must humble themselves on the name card and say that the waiter is so-and-so, and it depends on the mood of the lord if he sees it. This young man can be favored by the deputy envoy with a white body, and the relationship will naturally not be ordinary, so no one will touch this moldy head, only Liu Xianzun and Du Dafu's foreheads are slightly wrinkled, "This script is not right."
Seeing that the officials in the hall had no objections, Wang Xingping began to give history to the owners present.
"Zunyi Mansion was Langzhou in the Sui period, Zhenguan changed its name to Banzhou in the thirteenth year, and before Pingyang Yinglong in the twenty-eighth year of Wanli, there were nine hundred and sixty-two years."
"What is broadcasting? For the talented, the imperial court widely educated in the local area, and the people lived in the people, and the county was set up in the Tang Dynasty to collect taxes like the local people, but what about this dynasty? Which time was the tribute not given more by the imperial court, but I don't need to tell you how the chieftains repaid it, right? ”
"The local people are cunning, but the court still tries its best to appease, not because they don't want to change the land and return to the stream, but it is actually the benevolence of the son of heaven of my Han family, and I can't bear to lose my life, but the word "military and civilian" in Zunyi Mansion is not added for nothing."
Zunyi and Guiyang are both military and civilian governments, different from ordinary state capitals, the prefect has both military power, the so-called upper horse to manage the army, lower horse to manage the people, it is precisely because the southwest is chaotic, and the imperial court does not want to garrison too many places to the end of the big end, so it will use the flow of officials to control the military power.
Everyone in the hall listened to Wang Xingping's words one by one, and they couldn't help but nod their heads when they wondered about the young man's knowledge and knowledge.
Seeing that the foreshadowing was enough, Wang Xingping changed his words.
"Hoarding, buying low and selling high, that's what your Yaxing economy is supposed to do." This is the world's consistent impression of the dental industry, and the first point out this is to give a bad influence to all the officials here, and the scholars look down on the most are the mercenary people.
"But how does Cui Economy do it?"
How did I do it? Cui Ba was stunned when he heard this? Where did this boy come from? Why do you want to match it with your own home? Although there was a trace of doubt in his heart, looking at Deputy Envoy Chen next to him, the speculation about the identity of the teenager was pressed down again.
"You are the one who collects and sells the stolen goods of the Yi chieftains, you are the one who occupies the land of the Han people, and you are the one who resells the military rations in the treasury......"
As soon as the words came out, there was an uproar in the hall, the tooth man bought and sold the thief, although it was illegal, and many people knew about the joints, but after all, it was a private matter, and it was difficult to have evidence. As for the occupation of land property, in fact, it is more reasonable to say that it is annexed, or it is an ownerless land property, and it is conspired to bribe the households in the county, but with a red deed from the government, it is difficult to pull it. Or there are also people who bought it at a low price in the disaster year, but there are written documents and documents, and it is not that they have not given money, but it is just too cheap, and outsiders can only slander a few words.
But reselling the military rations in the treasury is not an ordinary crime, and it is common to be sentenced to death for a heavy crime, so the eyes of the hall were all cast on Cui Ba, who was kneeling in the hall and was already a little pale.
