Chapter 386: Chongzhen's trial
Fishing, Emperor Chongzhen still has the courage to play, especially for the Peacock King who wants to rebel and do things.
And the method of fishing is also very simple, when Emperor Chongzhen left from Luoyang, he followed a bunch of people, including ordinary people and merchants, and some scholars who traveled to study.
At that time, among these people, Emperor Chongzhen and Xu Xianchun could not confirm whether there were any people from the Peacock Ming King following them, there may or may not be.
All of them were arrested and tortured, and Emperor Chongzhen thought that he was not so ruthless.
But when they arrived in Xi'an Mansion, these people basically went their separate ways, only the woman in white and the woman in red came straight to Songpanwei.
This is very suspicious - for Xu Xianchun, Emperor Chongzhen's destination must be Songpanwei, and if the news leaks or not, no one dares to play this package ticket.
But from this time on, the woman in white and the woman in red officially entered the sight of Jinyiwei.
Under multiple verifications, it was finally discovered that the true identity of the woman in white was the young lady of the Northern Sect of the Kong family, but she happened to be not in the Confucian Mansion at that time and escaped.
The news reported by Jinyiwei, Emperor Chongzhen didn't take it seriously, what he was thinking about at the time was a little girl, how big a wave can he make?
Now the result is a rollover.
Although the waves raised by this little girl are not big, and they are pressed down in minutes, it is a clear fact that the waves are rolling.
This makes Emperor Chongzhen's heart feel happy?
Definitely not.
The unhappy Emperor Chongzhen doesn't care how beautiful and charming this chick is at all - anyway, there are more beauties in the world, and it's not just this one, I don't want to get a bunch of them every minute.
So now, Emperor Chongzhen, who has no concept of the words "pity for fragrance and jade", is simply going to throw this beauty to Xu Xianchun for interrogation.
Since ancient times, you have to pay attention to pomp and circumstance, especially Emperor Chongzhen's high status, so even if Xu Xianchun is waiting outside the door, Emperor Chongzhen has to say that Xu Xianchun is coming.
I can't let Emperor Chongzhen shout: Lao Xu come here, I have something to do with you!
How embarrassing isn't it?
After Xu Xianchun came in, Emperor Chongzhen directly ordered: "These two people will be handed over to you, and ask you what kind of Peacock King is causing trouble, and how many people there are."
It doesn't matter what the believers are, after the Luoyang Mansion, it is estimated that no one will be stupid enough to believe in this Peacock Ming King, but the leaders at all levels still have to deal with it. ”
Xu Xianchun bowed and said, "Your Majesty, these two women? ”
Emperor Chongzhen said: "I'll talk about it later, just raise it first." ”
Emperor Chongzhen is still struggling with what to do with these two women.
Kill it directly, it's too wasteful, get it back to the harem, it's even more impossible - the revenge of destroying the door, saying that he slept with Kong Yunzhen in one sleep, and then devoted himself to himself, this matter is not very reliable no matter how you look at it.
This little girl's skin is not one of those brain-dead things that have been sent through the ages, and she can make the Peacock King, which shows her hatred for herself, and it is unrealistic to sleep in pajamas.
The best way is to brainwash and throw it outside the Ming Dynasty to do things, and it is best to let this little girl pull up a team to rebel, such as Japan, such as the Western Regions, such as anywhere.
When the time comes, I can also grab land under the banner of counterinsurgency, right?
Just said these words directly in front of a little girl, and Emperor Chongzhen was still a little embarrassed in his heart.
After all, I still have to talk about conscience and face.
After Kong Yunzhen and the woman in red were taken down, Emperor Chongzhen breathed a sigh of relief and sighed: "Why do you make me so uneasy!" ”
Fang Zhenghua has always been able to not open his mouth without speaking, and he has always been hidden in the shadow of Emperor Chongzhen, and it is even more impossible to intervene at this time.
Wang Chengen wiped the corners of his eyes, bowed down and said: "The people below can't understand the emperor's love for the people, it's not the emperor's fault. ”
After sighing, Emperor Chongzhen lifted his spirits and ordered: "After many days, it's time to do business." Ordered people to prepare and prepare, and tomorrow in the lobby of Songpan Mansion will be tried by the bastard. ”
In fact, when Emperor Chongzhen went from the capital to Luoyang to Xi'an Mansion, and finally to Songpanwei, more than two months had passed since the Songpanwei earthquake.
In other words, it is now February of the third year of Chongzhen.
For such a long time, even Jiannu bypassed Shanhaiguan to do things, not to mention the Songpan earthquake - everything was almost cleaned up, and what I had to do now was to rebuild after the disaster or something.
In other words, Emperor Chongzhen actually came to Songpanwei for little significance, and after he came, there was nothing left except pretending to be forced.
But there is an old saying that is good, if you don't pretend, you laugh generously, pretend to be ineffective, and the sky thunders.
The current Emperor Chongzhen must pretend to be a good force, especially in front of the people affected by the disaster, and erect his image of loving the people like a son.
And if you want to set off your own image, you have to have a reverse image to set off yourself, which is much more perfect.
However, the officials of the Ming Dynasty have never lacked villains who set off the lofty image of Emperor Chongzhen.
Emperor Chongzhen had already decreed the exemption of taxes and forced labor in the disaster-stricken areas of Sichuan the day after receiving the news of the Songpanwei earthquake.
But the discipline of these officials is really limited.
For example, there is an official who looks at his predecessor's scarecrow hanging in the main hall every day, and is afraid every day, but it doesn't matter after a long time, and he ends up hanging with his predecessor.
Now the officials in Sichuan are very bold and fearless.
For example, Liu Zhiyu, the county magistrate of Songsongpan County.
Liu Zhiyu felt that this life was short for decades, and it was not possible to treat himself badly - after all, from babbling to ten years of cold window, the time of more than ten or twenty years is gone.
How many twenty years can I get in my life?
Life is too short.
Now that you have been named on the gold list and become an official again, why don't you make up for the suffering you have suffered for more than ten years?
As for what will happen to those, Liu Zhiyu doesn't care about it - who told them not to study?
As for the scarecrow or something, although it looks scary, but it's used to looking at it, and it's not a thing to be so scared all the time, is it?
Liu Zhiyu, who is slowly getting bolder, has gone from one hundred and ten taels to one thousand hundred taels, a little bit of greed, what a scarecrow Liu Zhiyu said, what a big deal.
But the number of people is never as good as the sky, and Liu Zhiyu, who escaped Jingcha, did not calculate that Songpan would suddenly have an earthquake, and Emperor Chongzhen suddenly ran to Songpan.
In the past, in order to get some land, I still wanted to occupy some businesses, but many people were put into the prison of Songpan County by themselves.
It's just that today it's me who lives in.
Liu Zhiyu, who was thinking about what was still a little short of something in this life, was thinking about it, and a Jinyi guard lieutenant opened the cell door under the leadership of the jailer, put down a meal with only two vegetarian dishes, and sneered: "Lord Liu, enjoy it, this meal today is probably your last meal in this world." ”
Liu Zhiyu squinted at the captain of the Jinyi Guard, and sneered: "Why, can't you even give up a good meal?" ”
Captain Jinyi said: "Don't say that, your majesty specially ordered the little one to send you this meal." Look, there's two more dishes.
As for the big fish and meat, don't think about it, Your Majesty said, you are already fat enough to eat the people's fat and ointment, if you eat it so well before leaving, I am afraid that you will not be able to digest it, and it will be difficult to explain to the king of Hades. ”
Liu Zhiyu was speechless.
Captain Jinyi Wei has said it so directly, what's the use of thinking about anything else?
When the captain of the Jinyi guard left, Liu Zhiyu ordered the jailer: "Go, get some good wine and food for the master, and the rest of the silver is yours." ”
After saying that, he pulled out a silver ticket from his boot - no one knows how this guy managed to hide his body search before going to prison.
The jailer took the silver ticket, but he didn't go out at all, but sneered: "Master, don't think about it, the emperor was wandering around the city a few days ago, no one cared about you, and the little one was happy to earn a few taels of silver."
But now, outside the cell is full of Jinyi guards, where did the little one have the courage to buy you wine and meat?
You, just wait for death with peace of mind, why bother thinking about this? ”
Liu Zhiyu's eyes widened, and he said angrily: "You! ”
The jailer shrank down and said with a smile: "Look, the little one took this silver ticket, don't you have to help collect your old man's house later, you are at the bottom, don't arrange the villain." ”
Liu Zhiyu suddenly smiled and said, "That's it, you take it first." Wait a few days for the emperor to leave, and then buy it for the old man. ”
The jailer asked curiously, "How many days?" Master, you're confused, the old man of the brocade guard just now said, this is your last meal? ”
Liu Zhiyu smiled, but ignored the jailer.
The county government of Songpan County, in the past, no one had beaten this drum of grievances, but no matter who knocked it, it was all knocked on as the side of the bitter master.
Of course, whether the sufferer is bitter or not, then say another - some are really bitter, but there is often nothing to beat the drum of grievances in this way, except for being beaten.
Some of them are only nominal sufferers, but these people often really win lawsuits.
There are some things involved, and it is not enough to be an outsider.
But today, in front of the lobby of Songpan County, it was the Lord Guan Buguan of Jinyiwei Baihu who sounded the drum of grievances - His Majesty said that this drum was beaten for the people of Songpan County, and it must be seen by the people.
Therefore, this drum is very energetic, it can't be knocked once, it can't be knocked for a while, it stops after a few beats, and then it is repeated after a while.
Guan Bu's knocking method quickly attracted onlookers from the people - I originally thought that the rumors of today's trial of the county magistrate were rumors, but I didn't expect it to be true.
Except for the classes in the drama, I haven't heard of the emperor Lao Tzu personally interrogating the county order?
It's a rarity, and we need to check it out.
Emperor Chongzhen's appearance is different from what the people think.
In the hearts of ordinary people, Emperor Chongzhen should be kind and kind-eyed, heroic, reincarnated as a god, and immortals descend to earth, plus what Emperor Chongzhen did on the grassland, at least he must be two feet tall and eight feet in circumference, able to run horses on his arms, and able to stand on his fists.
But who is that little white face sitting in the lobby now? When today's sub? Emperor Chongzhen?
The people who poured into the lobby were a little confused - it was really this guy that many people had seen, and he often shook a spring palace fan in this Songpan County......
At this moment, the people of Songpan scratched their heads a little.
Kneeling must be kneeling, even a county magistrate has to kneel, let alone the emperor Laozi.
But this guy doesn't look like any different from other swinger dudes......
The people in the hall fell to their knees, and the sound of the mountain shouting long live also sounded.
Emperor Chongzhen tried hard to maintain some of his majesty, but he couldn't help but smile on his face, and finally simply gave up his efforts and said, "Get up, it's cold on the ground, don't kneel." ”
The people who know more also know how to thank each other or something, and the rest only feel that the emperor is very kind and has no shelf, so they stand up at the moment.
Emperor Chongzhen also had a headache when he saw this - when he was still in the Forbidden City, those officials acted in unison and looked good.
Coughing his throat, Emperor Chongzhen picked up the shocking wood in front of him, slapped it down, and shouted: "Take Liu Zhiyu!" ”
After Liu Zhiyu was brought to the lobby, naturally a Jinyi guard went over and kicked him in the crook of his leg and made him kneel on the ground.
Emperor Chongzhen picked up a booklet directly from the desk in front of him, opened it and read: "In February of the fifth year of the Apocalypse, I embezzled 1,300 taels of silver; In April of the fifth year of the Apocalypse, twenty acres of land were obtained; In September of the fifth year of the Apocalypse, he received one thousand taels of silver;
In January of the sixth year of the Apocalypse, he got two thousand taels of silver and a concubine; In March of the sixth year of the Apocalypse, one hundred and fifty acres of land was obtained, and Liu Zhiyu's face was colorful;
January of the seventh year of the Apocalypse......
February of the 7th year of the Apocalypse......
In the first year of Chongzhen, Liu Zhiyu was selfish and unkind;
In March of the second year of Chongzhen, Liu Zhiyu got three hundred taels of silver, sighed, and said that he was mean now;
In July of the second year of Chongzhen, he got fifty acres of land, and he sighed that it was not as good as before. ”
After reading it, Emperor Chongzhen casually threw the pamphlet back on the desk, and said with a playful expression: "It's not as good as before?" I don't know why Lord Liu is not as good as before?
Since you became an official in the fourth year of the Apocalypse, you were not greedy in the first year, you were not greedy in the first year of Chongzhen, and when were you less greedy in the rest of the year? ”
Liu Zhiyu simply kowtowed and said: "The sinner deserves death, I hope Your Majesty will be angry." ”
Emperor Chongzhen sighed and said: "The porridge in the world, I want to borrow your head for use, how about it?" ”
To the surprise of Emperor Chongzhen, Liu Zhiyu was not afraid of death at all, but stood up and said: "Your Majesty, with the crime of the minister, you should peel the skin and grass, and the guilty minister does not dare to beg for mercy." ”
Is this still a person who is not afraid of death? 8)
