And at this moment, looking at the five mud pills of different shapes, the monks who came out of the eaves were weak on their feet, fell to the ground, and were speechless.

Mingmiao in the hall was even more sweaty, lying on the seat, like a dead fish waiting to be slaughtered.

"Five people and five things, this shows that this permanent residence gold is nothing at all, and it was fabricated by you and others to frame the former director Ming Xuan!" Gao Yue turned around, threw down the Shiwen book, the permanent residence of Alanta Temple, and scolded sharply.

Ming Xuan, who was thin on the seat, raised his bloodstained face, breathed a long sigh of relief, and then couldn't help but burst into tears: the accusation of stealing permanent residence gold has haunted him in recent years, and no one has paid attention to him in the temple, and the people in the market have looked at him with contempt.

Now I finally cleared the clouds and saw the blue sky.

"Please forgive me." Ming Miao begged with a wail at this moment.

Gao Yue, who sat back in the hall, asked him, "Why did you frame Ming Xuan?" ”

"Disagreeable...... Ming Miao stammered in reply, and several monks in the courtyard echoed him.

Over there, Ming Xuan also closed his mouth, and did not refute Ming Miao's words.

Gao Yue laughed and said a bunch of nonsense, accusing someone of self-theft is a felony, if you are framed, you can atone for the crime, you have taken great pains to fabricate charges, just for a "disagreeable temperament", to exclude Ming Xuan from the temple?

Before Ming Miao could continue to defend anything, Gao Yue brushed and wrote the judgment and said: "Ming Miao, the chief monk of Alanta Temple, falsely accused Ming Xuan of stealing from himself, and forged the book, shook the official government, and committed several crimes. ”

As soon as she heard the hanging, Ming Miao immediately rolled her eyes, her legs were paralyzed, and she collapsed on the mat and passed out.

The other monks knew that if they were to be beaten with a rod, they would either die or be disabled, so they wept and climbed up to the hall, bowed their heads up and down and begged for mercy, and told Gao Yue the truth: We and others are deeply involved in the game, and we owe more than a thousand debts, so we unite to squeeze Ming Xuan out, and then sell the temple's land and permanent residence to pay off the debt.

What, after hearing this, Gao Yue was even more furious - gambling debts again, and usury, I said that you monks and monks should have a pure heart and few desires, who wants to indulge in Shuanglu holding a lance, it is really unforgivable.

"Stop, the Buddha temple field is divided into three, one is used to respect Duobao Jialan, the second is used to support the monks, and the third is used to compassionately relieve the poor and the poor. Just as Gao Yue was about to officially make the sentence for execution, Duan Xiushi suddenly walked in and said "Wait".

"Under the section!" Gao Yue and the onlookers of the generals, as well as the officials, all bowed their hands and sang when they saw that the festival commander was coming.

Duan Xiushi nodded to everyone, then sat down, and said to Na Mingxuan: "No matter what crime Gao Kongmu sentences Ming Miao and other monks, Alanta Temple will not allow them to stay, and you will continue to be the head of the temple, so this section commander will ask you - now that Gao Kongmu has made a judgment, help you clear the snow and make false accusations, are you ambushed or not?" ”

Ming Xuan, who had stiffened his neck and said that he couldn't be subdued, was now the same as those Anxi generals, and he was convinced by this new Confucian official, although he didn't want Mingmiao, who was from the same door, to be hanged, but he could only bow his head and say, "I have to bow down." ”

Duan Xiushi stroked his palms and smiled, "Then ask you again, if the Alanta Temple uses levy and punishment to offset the sins of Ming Miao and other monks, you can't do it, it's all up to you." ”

Gao Yue next to him couldn't help frowning slightly when he heard the word "levy punishment":

Duan Xiushi's punishment is undoubtedly the alteration and encroachment of power on the law.

The so-called levy and punishment means that if someone commits a crime in the military town, with the consent of the temperance envoy, he can use the method of losing money, cloth, and grain to offset the punishment for the crime, which is called "levy and punishment".

In the past, Emperor Xuanzong in order to quell the rebellion, once said that each section of the province can raise their own armor, equipment, soldiers and horses, and grain, which is equivalent to renting the local power, so it is not surprising that the Jiedu envoy has repeatedly used the means of "levying and punishing" to obtain money and grain in order to feed the people and horses under his command.

Gao Yue understood that he was now just a Confucian official of the shogunate, and whether to punish or not was ultimately a sentence from Duan Xiushi, the envoy of the festival.

But now the main matter of Alanta Temple has changed to Ming Xuan, so Duan Xiushi said that the punishment "You can't do it or not, it's all up to you." ”

At this time, Ming Miao and many other monks surrounded Ming Xuan, wept bitterly, kowtowed, and begged him to save the lives of the monks.

"What is said under the verse, Ming Xuan understands, so he will do what is said under the verse." Ming Xuan finally bowed down.

Duan Xiushi's penalty conditions for Alanta Temple and Ming Xuan were 2,000 stone of corn and 200 pieces of salt, which could be converted into money and paid.

The general of the Anxi army was also very surprised when he heard this condition, grandma's, this Alanta Temple in Jingzhou is also rich, and it is just right to hand over the fine to cover the rations of the soldiers of the battalion.

"Gao Kongmu is really young and talented, I was underestimated before, and I was rude to the martial arts, please don't regret it!" After the case was judged, Liu Wenxi, Yao Lingyan, Ma Di, Zhang Yufei and others all stood under the hall and bowed their hands to express their respect for Gao Yue.

In the evening, in the embassy's office, Duan Xiushi specially found Gao Yue to talk to him.

Because although the status of Confucius is not high, the position that can be mastered is very important, and the so-called "one hole and one eye are all comprehensive", so the relationship with the marshal is also very close, and he is often regarded as a confidant.

After Gao Yue walked in, Duan Xiushi was sitting in front of the desk, writing a letter, "Yisong, do you know who this letter is for?" ”

"I don't know."

"It is for your lord Pan Li, tell him that you are not drunk, lustful, or loud in the Jingyuan camp, and you have the right to count slightly, and you will be of great use in the future." Duan Xiushi praised Gao Yue very smoothly, "Yi Song, don't be modest, this section is handsome and half a horse, I have seen Fang Zhen's army general arrogant and mean and was killed by soldiers, and I have seen the shogunate scribe debauchery Bo Xing incurred trouble, so I know how precious it is to be able to work with you Yi Song." If you had decided this case in a disorderly manner today, I would have written this letter to Pan Lishi now, but it would have been a complaint against you. ”

Gao Yue thought to himself, yesterday after passing through the music camp under the city, the official Jian was afraid that he regarded "passing through the door without entering" as a virtue, and reported it to Duan Xiushi in private.

How can I go to Leying, I have a wife!

Of course, this can't be said in person, so the atmosphere quickly calmed down, and after Duan Xiushi finished writing, he looked at Gao Yue and asked him again: "You may be curious, why does this section commander use levy punishment instead of hanging and cane punishment today?" ”

"Later, I understood, and I checked the documents and learned that in the following months, the military food in the camp was difficult, it was easy to punish people, and it was difficult to produce rice and food."

Duan Xiushi was right, and then he said to Gao Yue, "I have read Yi Song's policy article during the Spring Festival, which talks about the disadvantages of the border army, but Yi Song really knows where the disadvantages of this army are? ”
