Pei Yancheng said: "He really has it, saying that you Gao Fangping instructed to break the law, and you Gao Fangping denied it." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 In this case, he could not produce substantial evidence, and he was convicted of falsely accusing and defaming the officials of the imperial court, and the officials heard it with their own ears, and the hundreds of people in the hall were all witnesses. Gao Tang is now eventful, you are the main general of the rebellion, the stability of Gao Tang is all related to your life, your Gao Fangping, the image and reputation of the Qing official, cannot be tarnished, if you destroy your image of wisdom and martial arts, Gao Tang is in turmoil again, what happened? Is it wrong for the official to say that he has sinister intentions? Tall, I'm here for your reputation. ”

After a pause, he yelled, "Hurry up and drag it out and cut it." ”

Duan Jinzhu was so frightened that he came out with feces and urine, and kowtowed vigorously: "Little Gao Xianggong save me, I don't want to die, I really didn't commit a capital crime, I just said the wrong thing stupidly!" ”

Gao Fangping thought for a while, and after all, he couldn't bear to let this horse thief be killed, so he reluctantly approached Pei Yancheng and said, "Okay, give me your conditions?" ”

Pei Yancheng made a different look, but tapped lightly on the table with three fingers.

Lao Pei is saying: This time I got it from the Chai family, and the big county has three layers.

Damn, it's so easy, Gao Fangping stretched out two fingers and touched his chin.

Lao Pei is very dissatisfied with the two layers, but in general, it is good to have such an episode and cut off a piece of meat. Gao Fangping, a treacherous and obscene person, would never make too big a compromise for the rotten life of a character in the rivers and lakes.

So after thinking about it, Pei Yancheng nodded, acquiesced in Gao Fangping's counteroffer, and said in a voice: "Take Duan Jinzhu back first, there is a big event now, don't let this kind of birdman waste the time of the county government." ”

Lao Pei's official authority is over, and this time it is Gao Fangping's turn.

Gao Fangping took out his hall wood, knocked it sharply and said, "Take down the main book Qiu Weidong." ”

"Huh?" The fat man jumped up in fright, pointed to his own nose and said, "Me? ”

"Yes, take it. This black-bellied fat man misbehaved and beat the officials, and the witnesses were not three hundred but two hundred. This can be exempted in normal times, but at that time, the situation in Gaotang was critical, in a state of emergency, the situation was in a hurry, this official was the main general of the imperial court to quell the chaos, and the authority was almost harmed, which may cause major consequences in Gaotang, and the sinister intentions of the Tang Dynasty could not be repeated, suspected of being a rebel, take it down, and wait for the criminal department to file a case for investigation! ”

Pei Yancheng passed out directly, there was nothing more shameless than this, and he plagiarized the official's judgment, and just won an official who came out of the palace test with 1 fruit and 1 fruit?

The big fat man immediately said that he wanted to come forward to speak, so he was recognized by Gao Fangping.

Stepping forward to lean on top of the high hall, the fat man said embarrassedly: "My lord, open your conditions." ”

Gao Fangping touched his chin and said: "This harvest, how can I assign it to Gao Tang, you are not allowed to hold back, you are not allowed to have opinions, you must support brainlessly." ”

"This can be had, I'm not bad for money." The fat man said with a smile, "As for leaving it to the county government, it will be embezzled by Cai You and Gao Lian sooner or later, so I have no opinion." ”

"What a fat man, he is a pillar of the court." Gao Fangping patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction.

"So I'm wrong, right?" Qiu Weidong said with a smile.

Gao Fangping said again: "At the moment, we can't be sure of your intention to attack this official. Let me ask you, the Xin'an Army has a thief from the Tang Dynasty, named Li Xiaolu, who may come back? ”

Qiu Weidong said in embarrassment: "If I admit it under coercion and help you do things, my father will beat me to death?" ”

"Attacking the main general of the rebellion in a state of war is extremely sinister......," Gao Fangping shouted.

The fat man immediately said very loyally: "Okay, I'll repair a letter to my father, get Li Xiaolu back, and this time I won't participate in the competition for interests for Gao Tang." ”

"Sure enough, he's a good fat man with strange bones." Gao Fangping knocked on the wood and said: "Come on, catch this fat man on the wall of the small black roof, let him calm and calm, whether he is impulsive and confused in attacking this official, or has sinister intentions, will be decided after Li Xiaolu returns." ”

"Master Xie." The fat man walked to the small black house by himself, and it was okay to be locked up, otherwise it would be very bad for the boss to come out and find that the fat man did not act and did not intercept the interests of Gao Tang.

The fat man deliberately wanted to cause such an ending.

At present, basically, the division of political and economic interests has been straightened out, and then, of course, it is monolithic, and it has been frenzied exploitation and oppression from the outside world.

Gao Fangping knocked on the hall angrily and said: "Bring the anti-thief Sun An to the court." ”

Sun An himself may not be a person who is afraid of death, but there is no need to struggle after this general trend is gone, and Gao Fangping promised to confirm that he surrendered and could be exempted from the death penalty. This point can be regarded as going from death to life, which actually made Sun An gassed his desire to survive.

In addition, he has no feelings and friendship with Chai Jihui, that is, common interests have come together. Sun An always thought that this defeat was because of Chai Jihui's indecisiveness, so he hated Chai Jihui, and without waiting for Lao Pei to torture, Sun An called the Chai family to the bottom of the matter, but whenever he knew what he had guessed, he said it all.

When confronted in the court, Chai Jihui bit out blood from his teeth, saying that Sun An was a mad dog, and the words of the thief could not be trusted.

Chai Jihui said: Lao Tzu doesn't know Sun An at all, and he doesn't know why this thief appeared in Chai's house.

But in fact, such a denial is quite weak, Sun An's things about the Chai family can be confirmed one by one, and they can be said to the number, such as how many birthmarks Chai Jihui has on his body, and Sun An can say it clearly.

So he stripped Chai Jihui in public and confirmed that Sun An was right.

In desperation, Chai Jihui reluctantly admitted that he knew Sun An. But he continued to quibble that he had no deep friendship with Sun An, and he didn't know Sun An's origin, just because he saw that he was a good man with strong martial arts, so he stayed in the house as a guest, and invited Sun An to soak in the hot springs as a landlord, so Sun An knew the birthmark.

Later, Sun An took out a letter, in which Chai Jihui thought he was smart and didn't write anything, only wrote: "My brother Sun An is like-minded, and he invited him to gather in Gaotang to discuss important matters." ”

Pei Yancheng, a "calligrapher", personally identified that this was Chai Jihui's note, even so, when he wrote this letter, Sun An was already a wanted criminal on the register of the Criminal Department, so Chai Jihui wrote the name "Sun An" to indicate that he knew Sun An, invited the house, and the fact of harboring the thief was basically recognized and became an iron case.

Although Sun An finally failed to have evidence to prove that Chai Jihui and Lu Junyi of the Daimyo Mansion colluded to rebel, nor could it prove that the attack and defense battle at the city gate was ordered by Chai Jihui, let alone that the people who incited the displaced people outside the city to make trouble were related to Chai Jihui. But these are not important, Gao Fangping and Pei Yancheng's goal has been achieved, harboring the anti-thief Sun An, and not reporting it in a state of war, causing major events in the Tang Dynasty, almost leading to the destruction of the city, resulting in more than 100 poor people dying in battle. The sin is terrible, but it ...... It can't be decided.

Because Chai Jihui's "crime of treason" cannot be determined, it can only be determined that "harboring anti-thieves", harboring anti-thieves is a felony, but it does not mean that he must participate in the rebellion, this place has to be pulled. Of course, if you meet a decisive official, it will not be a big problem if you cut it, and you can go to the capital to tear up the calf. But helplessly, Pei Yancheng didn't want to do anything in this matter, he didn't want to go to Beijing to be the emperor, and Chai Jin, who was holding a single book and an iron scroll into Beijing to sue the emperor.

So from this, just sitting on the crime of harboring anti-thieves, Pei Yancheng interpreted: This crime is within the scope of Emperor Taizu's oath.

Gao Fangping tried to confuse the public, using the method of "a steamed bun can cause a bloody case, and a piece of toilet paper can cause the destruction of the earth", trying to fool Lao Pei into signing in order to kill Chai Jihui. However, Lao Pei is not a faint official, he is better than a ghost, and refuses to sign for recognition.

In desperation, Gao Fangping had no choice but to leave Chai Jihui's life, and knocked on the hall and said: "Chai Jihui harbored the thief, the evidence is conclusive, the logic of the crime is clear, the facts are found to be flawless in line with the facts of the case, and he has already pleaded guilty, and the consequences caused are extremely serious and bloody, and he should be determined to be the first offender to be beheaded after the autumn, but he has a genealogy to prove that he is under the protection of Emperor Taizu's oath, and this official finds him guilty, but he cannot be judged." As a Qin criminal, Chai Jihui was escorted to Bozhou on a certain day, and then transferred to the Criminal Department and handed over to the imperial court to make a fair verdict! The head of the family, Chai Huangcheng, died, and according to Chai Jihui, as the eldest son-in-law, he naturally inherited the family business and the head of the family. Therefore, it is said that this time the head of the Chai family committed a serious crime, and the family property was confiscated in accordance with the laws of the Great Song Dynasty, and it was executed by the Gao 1 Tang County Ya. ”

Pei Yancheng was very satisfied, said that he recognized the verdict, so he signed.

Otherwise, although Gao Fangping is the presiding judge, and Gao Fangping has judicial power, if Pei Yancheng does not approve of this supervision, then he will have to pull the calf again, in a sense, it means that there are flaws in the case and there are ambiguities in the judgment.

"Sun An." Gao Fangping knocked down the wood again and shouted: "You made a rebellion before, causing a major disaster in Chen 1 Liuxian County, and you are a specially wanted criminal registered by the Criminal Department, and this time you have created a bloody case in Gaotang, which is a heinous crime. But remembering that he was lost and knew that he had turned himself in, and provided clues to help Gao Tang solve the case, there were facts and merits. In accordance with the laws of the Great Song Dynasty, the official exempted him from the death penalty and sentenced him to 50 deaths, and then issued a letter to the security army to wear the crime of Rongbian, and he was not released for the rest of his life, and he was not allowed to return to the mainland for life. ”

Pei Yancheng blushed, and definitely didn't want to let Sun An go, but since Gao Fangping was in charge of the trial, confirmed the circumstances of his voluntary surrender, and provided clues to cooperate with the credit for solving the case, these two factors are in, basically Gao Fangping's verdict is slightly lighter, but it can be regarded as qualified.

Xue Yuanhui, the head of the county government, had red eyes, he had personally fought a bloody battle at the city gate, and his subordinates died, but now the capital crime of the main culprit Sun An was exempted in Xiao Gao's hands. So Xue Yuanhui was very sad and angry!

Xue Yuanhui is a very interesting person, he is a cheap confidant in the Water Margin, he appeared as cannon fodder, and when he played against Liang Shanjun, he singled out Xiao Li Guanghuarong and was killed by Huarong with a trick. Although he is cannon fodder, he is basically a model of dying well and sacrificing his life for the country. and the Huang Dujian who was scared away by thieves and lost his head in Chenliu County, are two absolute people.

As Gao Lian's henchman, Gao Fangping believes that Xue Yuanhui is not much incorruptible, but he is a relatively qualified court eagle dog, yes, his boss Gao Lian is also there, he has ability, and the battle with Liang Shan can be regarded as impressive, not cowardly at all.

In this battle of attack and defense at the city gate, the morale is so strong, to a certain extent, thanks to the three major capitals of Gaotang County: Xue Yuanhui, Wen Wenbao, Yu Zhi, these three cheap love generals are all ruthless people, and their contributions are indispensable.
