Listening to the sound of drums in the city, Zhou Yan fell into an extremely embarrassing and tangled situation.

As a thorn history, he is in this city of goodness, but he has been isolated by the whole city.

Caught in a situation called 'social death'.

No one wanted to talk to him or his entourage, and no one wanted to give them any help.

Access to food and water is difficult.

It even requires the retinue to go to the countryside outside the city and pretend to be travelers to buy it.

Even more troublesome is the accommodation.

All residents and merchants refused to provide them with any accommodation.

Not even if you give money!

As for the government?

Whether it is the Taishou Mansion where the envoy is located, or the county governor's mansion where General Wuheng is traveling or the new General Changshui.

They all treated him as air.

The greeting post sent was thrown directly outside the door.

So much so that he doesn't even have a place to confess now!

"Assassin Shi, I heard that the envoy plans to try a group of officials and powerful ...... tomorrow" Wang Yuan hurriedly found Zhou Yan and said to him: "I can't wait any longer......

When Zhou Yan heard this, he immediately stood up, looked serious, and said, "Do you really dare to go to trial!?" ”

Once the trial is made public, then the crimes of the entire Yanmen officials and Haoqiang will be made public.

At that time, there will be no room for turning over!

And he and these celebrities who came to Shanwu City will suffer the biggest setback in this life.

Not only may you end up in disgrace, but you will also lose everything you have accumulated before.

Become the antagonist in this Chiyou play.

And his assassination history may end even worse.

Not only is it difficult to keep the official position, but the reputation is lost, and maybe it will be left for 10,000 years.

It has become similar to the villains and silverfish in the story of Simon Leopard Zhiye and Li Bingzhishu.

Forever from now, people will still know what he has done today.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yan finally let go of his jealousy completely, made up his mind, and said with his head held high: "How can this country treat scholars and gentry well?" ”

"I heard Jia Changsha said: Although the shoes are fresh to add pillows, although the crown is disadvantageous, it is necessary to carry the shoes. Scholars, good gentry, and virtuous ministers, even if they are guilty, they can be abolished, they can be retreated, and they can be given death, and An can humiliate them? Where is this place for the Son of Heaven! ”

"Such a bad government, I am a thorn in history, An Neng will turn a blind eye to it, and he will stop it!"

Zhou Yan's righteous words ordered: "Come to people, raise my guard of honor, build my building, walk on the road, and go straight to the Taishou Mansion, even if I Zhou Yan tries his best today, I must try to prevent the messenger from doing this mess!" ”

The crowd listened, and finally burst into cheers.

Before, they had been persuading Zhou Yan to fight the honor guard of assassination, and go to the Taishou Mansion to be tough with the envoy from Chang'an.

However, Zhou Yan has always been scrupulous, afraid of direct collision, cherishing his life and refusing to give up his life.

Now, he has finally let go of his scruples and is willing to be tough!

In this way, they will at least be able to buy enough time for the Prime Minister of Chang'an to intervene in time.

"Assassin Shi Gaoyi, we would like to thank him on behalf of the Yanmen people!" Everyone bowed to each other.

Wang Yuan even said: "This move to assassinate history and save the people from fire and water can be called a feat of setting things right!" ”

………………………………

In the Taishou Mansion, Zhang Yue examined the document file in front of him, the corners of his mouth sneered slightly, and his eyes were full of murderous intent.

More than ten days have passed since he became good.

The charges against Hao Qiang, the first batch of arrested officials, have also been preliminarily concluded.

In total, more than 30 officials, aristocrats, and powerful people were involved, and hundreds of murder cases were involved, and hundreds of other large and small cases were involved.

This does not include Wei Yannian and Ma Yuan.

If such a large case is handled within the legal framework according to the normal process.

It will take at least one or two years just to clarify the case and conclude the truth.

Counting the trial, conformity, and the pronouncement of the sentence and execution, it will not be able to fight for three or five years.

How could Zhang Yue wait so long?

How did the people of Yanmen endure it for so long?

There are many long nights and dreams, if something happens in the middle, let these people escape, wouldn't it be lifting a stone to shoot themselves in the foot?

Therefore, Zhang Yue was not polite to them, and directly issued an order to Deng Shuang, ordering Deng Shuang to deal with it in accordance with the principle of 'first crime investigation'.

The so-called 'investigation of the first crime' is Zhang Yue's invention.

It is reversed from the 'case law' of the later Midi judicial system.

As long as a person has a certain type of crime confirmed, then all subsequent crimes of the same type that he is involved in, as long as there is no major suspicion, will be presumed guilty.

There is no need for investigation, no review, no trial, as long as someone makes a complaint and provides certain evidence, the crime can be found to be convicted.

As soon as this order was given, the examination and investigation work was naturally rapidly accelerated.

As long as there is a little breakthrough, it is a comprehensive breakthrough.

One crime is confirmed, all crimes are confirmed!

With the arrival of Captain Changshui, the officials who came with the army also joined the review and interrogation work.

With the assistance of these experts, the interrogation work will naturally be accelerated countless times over.

At all times, there are confessions.

Up to now, the powerful officials and nobles who were initially arrested have all been tried and are just waiting to be sentenced.

Zhang Yue ordered people to erect a large platform outside Shanwu City to vacate an open space that could accommodate at least thousands of people.

It is intended that from among these people, a group of people who are extremely angry and who have committed heinous crimes will be selected for public trial and public judgment.

Of course, his approach is more or less taboo and risky.

If it was in Chang'an, he might not dare to do this.

But under this plug, it doesn't matter.

It's a matter of urgency.

As a plenipotentiary envoy, he has the power and qualifications to make such a decision on behalf of the Son of Heaven!

"The ...... of the servant in the court" continued to walk in and bowed to Zhang Yue: "The history of the state assassin and the 'celebrities' are making trouble again......

"Oh......" Zhang Yue smiled, "Don't bother with ......"

In the past few days, the so-called Assassin Shi and those so-called 'celebrities' have jumped up and down in the city of Shanna, buzzing like flies.

It's a pity that they can't even make a little wave.

was even more spurned and scolded by the thousands of Chang'an scholars who came with the army.

Each time, they walked away among rotten eggs and rotten leaves.

Zhang Yue didn't bother to pay attention to them.

"Shizhonggong, this time the assassin Shi set up a guard of honor, a building, and publicly promoted some of Jia Changsha's remarks......" Xu Xiangru lowered his head and said: "I'm afraid you have to respond......"

"Oh......" Zhang Yue listened, frowning and smiling: "Really played the Assassin History Honor Guard and Cover?" ”

"Yes!" Xu Xiangru nodded.

"This is looking for death......" Zhang Yue chuckled: "That's it!" Let me meet this 'warrior'......"

………………………………………………

Zhang Yue stepped out of the Taishou Mansion.

I saw that in front of the official residence of the Taishou Mansion, hundreds of people surrounded a middle-aged official wearing a crown hat with a stabbing history, blocking the door.

On the streets, countless scholars and ordinary people were watching.

"Who's coming?" Zhang Yue held the knot, stepped forward, and asked.

"Zhou Yan of the state assassin, I have seen the envoy of the festival!" The middle-aged official stepped forward, looked at Zhang Yue, his eyes were surprised, and then he bowed and bowed to Jieyan: "Weichen respectfully asks Your Majesty Sheng'an!" ”

"St. Ann!" Zhang Yue raised the knot, turned sideways and said: "The assassin is not in Jinyang Bingzheng, why is this good?" ”

"I heard that the envoy was fortunate to be in Yanmen, and I didn't dare to slack off, so I led the crowd to ......" Zhou Yan bowed again in a deep voice: "In this Yanmen, I watched the envoy act and govern the government, and he used the Legalist cruelty to kill innocent and good people and officials, so I couldn't bear it in my heart, and I came to advise!" ”

"Exhortation?" Zhang Yue laughed, took the festival and asked, "What is the high opinion of the assassin history?" ”

"Although the shoes are fresh, they are added to the pillow; Although the crown is disadvantageous, it is a good job! This Jia Changsha admonished Taizong's words, and the severe punishment was harsh, and the reason why this Qin died in the world! ”

"And husband, scholar and official, it is not easy to cultivate the country, the envoy exercises power without authorization, and he is humiliated, this death of Taizong's virtue and bad His Majesty's good governance, and the official stealing is not taken by the envoy!" Zhou solemnly bowed.

I have to say that the tone and attitude of this person are indeed very sincere.

Hearing this, the surrounding scholars all nodded secretly.

Han, after all, is a feudal dynasty.

The difference between classes and classes is obvious.

And most of the scholars were landlords and powerful nobles, so they obviously agreed with his words.

Zhang Yue listened, but laughed, and said: "Jia Changsha's "Class Theory", this envoy also has a ...... to read."

"The words of the assassin history, to a certain extent, are also reasonable......"

In this era, there is a world of difference between classes.

Just like Taizong's famous edict to eliminate slander, while protecting the people's right to free speech, it also deprives the people of the right to participate in politics.

Because, no matter how much the people talk about it, it is useless without the participation of scholars, nobles, and officials.

The people who do not hold power are like birds in a tree.

Even if someone took a stick and poked out their nests, they would not be able to interfere at all, except for a few chirps.

This is also the reason why Yanmen County has been corrupted to this point.

Without the support of scholars, nobles, and officials, no matter how dissatisfied the people are, it is useless.

Unless they rebel!

But if you rebel......

Unorganized and armed people, in the face of an army armed to the teeth, they don't even have the ability to resist!

Zhou Yan listened to Zhang Yue's words, his face was happy, thinking that Zhang Yue was going to compromise with him.

My heart was full of joy.

Even if it was just a symbolic compromise, even if it was just the cancellation of the public trial, the execution of those officials and powerful people was enough to make him famous and become a famous minister.

Maybe you can be promoted to Chang'an and become a Beijing official!

In his mind, it should be like this.

As an official, aren't they all sedan chair people carrying people?

You give me face, and I will give you face.

However......

In the next moment, he heard the messenger's chuckle: "It's just a ...... Jia Changsha's "Theory of Classes" is based on Huang Lao's moral theory......"

"The so-called 'shoes are fresh, but they are added to the pillow; Although the crown is disadvantageous, Fu Yitho ......has already been taught by my teacher Dong Zi, and the approved piece is not worth it! ”

"Today's world is the Tang Wu Revolution, which conforms to the heavens and responds to the people, and it is the world where the king of Wu kills the people, hangs the people and kills the crime, and it has never been a long time......"

"The assassin used Huang Lao's moral words, and admonished me, isn't this the sword of the previous dynasty beheading the officials of this dynasty?"

"Thorn History, it's better to go back, read more books, and cultivate your temperament!"
