Chapter 837: My Lord's Voice

Jiang Baifu was beaten by Ma Jiu and lay on the ground and didn't get up for a long time...... He has a good mouth and good kung fu with his fists and feet, but he can't resist in court, so he simply lies down and pretends to be dead. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Shen Xi picked up the stick holder on the table, took out a few red-headed bamboo sticks from it, weighed it a few times in his hand, and scared the kneeling people below half to death.

Shen Xi shouted to the scar-faced man and asked, "Say!" What the hell was going on at that time, if there is the slightest concealment, let your ass bloom! ”

"Big ...... My lord, we ...... The villain is ...... ...... who escaped by boat Please...... Please be careful! The scar-faced man kowtowed.

"Oh, escaped by boat? Beat! ”

Shen Xi directly threw two bamboo sticks down, which meant to hit the twenty boards, but after all, the yacha under the hall did not belong to the governor's yamen, and at this time they hurriedly looked at Liu Xiang of the county magistrate with a asking gaze.

Liu Xiang hurriedly said: "My lord, this is not a prisoner, but a witness. The witness replied truthfully, and he didn't block it, he couldn't beat it, he couldn't beat it! ”

Shen Xi nodded and said: "If you reply truthfully, naturally you can't beat him, but this official feels that his words are flickering, and he seems to have something to hide, so let's fight first!" ”

Yacha didn't dare to make a move, but Ma Jiu and Zhu Qi didn't have any scruples, at this time, they had already taken a killing stick from the yacha from the left and right, and they were about to do it, but they heard a voice from outside: "Slow!" ”

Everyone looked towards the entrance of the yamen, and the crowd automatically moved out of the way, only to see an official who was also dressed in a big red official robe, accompanied by several subordinate officials, strode over, but it was Zhang Yuanying, the political envoy of Guangdong.

When Liu Xiang saw Zhang Yuanying, he seemed to see a savior, walked out of the lobby quickly, stepped forward respectfully, and said, "Say hello to Lord Fantai." ”

A subordinate official behind Zhang Yuanying shouted: "Guangdong Bu Political Envoy Si Bu Political Envoy Master Zhang is here, and he still doesn't salute?" ”

The onlookers present were basically flat-headed people, and when they heard this, they quickly knelt down and saluted, calling them "Lord Fantai", while Shen Xi still sat upright in the lobby as usual.

Zhang Yuanying entered the hall, walked towards Shen Xi calmly, and said: "This Nanhai Zhixian Yamen, why did Shen Governor Fu personally come to try the case?" ”

Shen Xi shook his head slightly: "Even the right political envoy of Guangdong is here in person, why can't this official come?" This official is trying the case, I don't know if Zhang Fantai wants to observe, or will he come to explain a few words? ”

Zhang Yuan should see Shen Xi's arrogant demeanor, and he also straightened his face at the moment, and said: "Shen Governor Fu Gongya is Wuzhou, and I use my Guangdong Cheng to announce that the county government court under the jurisdiction of the political envoy department is really a move to disrupt the dynasty, and this official will definitely play to the court and sue Shen Governor Fu for a crime of not obeying the law!" ”

This crime sounds quite new, and the "sin of disobedience to the law" seems lofty...... What a sin not even to keep the law! But if you think about it, what does it mean to be disobedient to the law? To convict criminals, at least to say which article or paragraph has been violated, and where is there such a general conviction of people?

Shen Xi was born as a champion and was extremely familiar with the "Da Ming Law", so he asked at the moment: "This official wants to ask, which of the laws is violated by this county government decision?" ”

There is no article in the "Da Ming Law" that says that it is not allowed to use the court to try the case, Zhang Yuanying could have impeached Shen Xi for "trespassing", but Shen Xi is the governor of the three provinces, and has the authority to rectify the local officials.

To sum up, it can be said that Shen Xi is "unruly", but this is not a crime, as a subordinate Liu Xiang, the magistrate of Nanhai County, has the right to refuse, but where does Liu Xiang have the courage to drive Shen Xi out of the county office?

Rao is Zhang Yuan should be old and serious, and he was also dumbfounded by a junior question, and he was suddenly embarrassed.

Zhang Yuanying thought to himself, the hairy boy just didn't know the rules, and he yelled at him before the milk stinked dry, wouldn't he have to rebel when he got older? Zhang Yuan should have shouted: "Come on, all the people involved in the case will be escorted to the Yamen of the Prosecutor's Department for Punishment and handed over to the Department for interrogation!" ”

Since it can't be investigated from the matter of Shen Xi borrowing the yamen, let's make a fuss about Shen Xi's qualifications for interrogation. Usually, ordinary people go to the county government and the government to fight lawsuits, and if the committee does not make a decision, it can be reported to the judicial department, and the judgment will be made by the department in charge of the criminal name and litigation affairs of a province. Although Shen Xi has great power, he has no right to interfere in local affairs.

Shen Xi thought to himself: "You found the person, and now you see me making a big deal about it, and you can't think about it?" How can it be so cheap! ”

"Wait!"

Shen Xi raised his hand and shouted.

Zhang Yuan should have said confidently: "Governor Shen should understand the rules of the imperial court, and you have no right to intervene in the affairs of local administration and prisons within the scope of your duties!" ”

Shen Xi's tone was gloomy: "This official doesn't care about the prison, but it seems that the political envoy Si Yamen has no right to interrogate, right?" Zhang Fantai said that the official doesn't understand the rules, and it's you who can't understand the rules...... Do you know that what these people came to report was a major case of sea bandits robbing ships and murders, and this official, as the governor of Qin, exterminated the bandits and robbers in the three coastal provinces, and it is within his duty to try this case. ”

"Huh!?"

When Shen Xi finished speaking, the people present were stunned.

Shen Xi's accusations of harboring and colluding with pirates and pirates were so shocking that the people were terrified from the bottom of their hearts when they heard about it...... What if it's true?

Zhang Yuanying originally wanted to use public opinion to exert pressure on Shen Xi, but unexpectedly, Shen Xi took advantage of the people's fear of bandits and gave him a dismissal first.

If you take people away, you will admit that you are secretly harboring bandits, and if you stay, I will continue to try the case! If you make a move, I will take it, and this county government court is the battlefield where you and I play!

Zhang Yuanying said: "Governor Shen doesn't want to frame him, Guangdong is not Fujian, the officials and the people are bent on resisting the bandits, and this official just wants to find out about the robbers and the robbery of the ship earlier, so he will hand over the person to the Yamen of the Si Si for disposal." ”

Shen Xi said: "If you want to try the case, you will end it here." This official just wants to find out and lead the troops to encircle and suppress, can Zhang Fantai stay and observe? ”

Zhang Yuanying's face changed slightly, but he wasn't worried about what tricks Shen Xi could play, because as long as he was there, he could react on the spot, and even if these people who came to report the case were tortured, they didn't dare to talk nonsense.

"The official also wants to hear what case they want to report." Zhang Yuan should sit down on the chair prepared for him next to him, and look at the people present with an expressionless face.

Zhang Yuan should come in person to prevent Jiang Baifu and others from "confessing" under torture.

Sure enough, Jiang Baifu's face turned green when he saw Zhang Yuanying, and he trembled with fright...... Now that even Zhang Yuanying can't snatch people from Shen Xi's hands, it is clear that he wants to sacrifice him, he can't talk nonsense, and then he will be in big trouble.

Shen Xi said: "Since Zhang Fantai is here, then the punishment will be sent over to invite the envoy and the envoy to the commander of the department!" ”

Zhang Yuanying glared at Shen Xi: "What does Shen Dufu mean by this?" Do you want three sessions? ”

"What's wrong?"

Shen Xi asked rhetorically: "Quelling the local bandits is not only the duty of the official, but also the unshirkable responsibility of the yamen of the three local divisions, and now it is a major case involving the robbery of ships and murders. ”

Zhang Yuan should have no way to refute.

Similar to the situation in Fuzhou City, as long as Shen Xi raised the problem to the level of suppressing bandits, all the yamen in the three provinces, including the three divisions and the lower prefecture, prefecture, and county governments, would have to obey the dispatch......

You can secretly sabotage and not cooperate, or you can make excuses not to come, but since you are here, you can't interfere with me tracking down the bandits, and you can't stop me from inviting others.

Zhang Yuanying showed a sneer on his face, and exchanged his eyes with Jiang Baifu, and then said, "Shen Dufu just sent someone to invite." ”

Shen Xi's command did not have many people, so he had to ask the people from the county government to inform the envoy and the commander of the envoy on his behalf.

Originally, the two divisions and yamen only needed to send someone to come over to observe, but knowing that this was the case of Shen Xi, the governor of the three provinces, and Zhang Yuan, the political envoy of the right side, should be present to observe, it was really unreasonable not to send a leader.

When Li Che, the commander of the capital, and Lin Tingxuan, the procurator who was known for his impartiality in repeatedly resolving suspected prison cases, arrived at the Nanhai County Yawai, thousands of people had already gathered outside the Nanhai County Ya, and the senior officials and governors of the three divisions of one province had gathered in one county government hall to try the case, which was the first case in Guangdong since the founding of the Ming Dynasty.

Li Che was in his thirties, in the prime of life, and was followed by Liu Weikuan, the commander of the capital who had visited Shen Xi in the post house before, while Lin Tingxuan came alone.

After each of them met the ceremony, Lin Tingxuan and Li Che both avoided Shen Xi, obviously Zhang Yuanying had already greeted them before.

Lin Tingxuan was over fifty years old, with an awe-inspiring righteousness on his body, and asked: "Shen Zhongcheng, I don't know why I asked me to come to Nanhai County, could it be that Your Majesty has an edict, and you will give an explanation to us?" ”

Shen Xi didn't know much about Lin Tingxuan, only that he had a good official reputation, but the official voice was mostly someone else's senses, and his ears were empty. It's like Zhang Yuanying's official reputation has always been good, but it just makes him stumbling everywhere.

Shen Xi said: "A merchant ship was robbed at sea, and the merchants and boatmen fled and returned to Guangzhou to report the case. ”

Lin Tingxuan said: "Then it's not a trial, it's an inquiry, why bother to mobilize the public?" Or should the people disperse, what does Zhang Fantai think? ”

Zhang Yuanying had thought about letting the people retreat before, but now he was not in a hurry, but hoped that the movement would be as loud as possible, and immediately replied: "The matter of robbers involves the people's livelihood, and it is okay for the people to observe." ”

Lin Tingxuan originally wanted to follow Zhang Yuanying's wishes, but unexpectedly touched his nose, and retreated to the side without saying anything. Li Che and Liu Weikuan, who accompanied him, were silent because the army had never been involved in local government affairs.

Zhang Yuanying said with a smile: "Shen Dufu, now that everyone has arrived, do you want to start the trial?" ”

Shen Xi said: "Then let's open the hall...... Jiang Baifu, you said that your ship was robbed shortly after you went to sea, what is the process, in detail......"

Jiang Baifu said loudly: "Back to my lord, the villain has never been to sea, and the ship has not been robbed. Adults heard the difference. ”
