Chapter 124 The Most Rogue Approach
The civil officials of the Great Song Dynasty were very experienced in how to govern the locality. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Some methods that have long been rotten in the Great Song Dynasty have been tried and tested in Hami, whether they are sincerely dedicated to the country or working for the people with false affection, they have all won the praise of the people under their rule without exception.
The Uighurs had never encountered such a high-ranking liar, or had the government ever treated them like this.
Therefore, when the heavy snow collapsed the room, and the government sent someone to build a new house with them, they were grateful.
When someone in their family unfortunately died of a work-related injury, and seeing the sad eyes of the officials, they thought that their own death had nothing to do with the government's arbitrary command, especially after receiving the government's meager compensation, they sent the rest of their children to the officials to continue the scourge.
Under such circumstances, the Song people from the Great Song Dynasty who had been deceived by the officials for many years behaved very calmly.
The law of the country has stipulated that he is a superior person, which is consistent with the interests of the government, so he will not expose the false and empty lies of the officials or the variant lies that they are in the morning or in the evening.
It was because of the hard work of countless Song officials that the Uighurs who had been harmed by the mercenaries or the Song and Han people maintained the greatest restraint.
However, things always have to be resolved, and it is impossible for the Uighurs to exercise such restraint forever, and after a long time, there will be problems.
The problem was summarized here by Tie Xinyuan, and after studying it for a long time, he found that the only way to continue to deceive was to continue to deceive.
So, on a cold and windy spring day, the Hami government held the largest public trial meeting since the founding of the country.
Tie Xinyuan sat on the highest place, the sun shining on the golden crown with golden light, noble as a god.
Ouyang Xiu sat behind a table at the bottom of the steps, wearing a black black veil, dressed in a cyan robe, and a stick holder filled with bamboo sticks was placed on the table in front of him.
Five hundred fully armored warriors of the Fragrance Valley stood on both sides with swords in hand, forming a wild goose feather array to completely separate the people from the more than 200 prisoners who had been frightened and stupefied.
The plaintiffs standing at the front clenched their fists one by one, staring at the prisoners related to their own families in anger.
More than a dozen officials who could speak Turkic stood in the middle of the military camp and constantly recited the crimes committed by these prisoners, and after each recitation, the officials behind him violently dragged the prisoners to the plaintiff and asked them to confirm whether they were the culprits.
"I want him dead! I want him dead, my poor Lu Li ......"
The official waved his arms to ask the plaintiff to be quiet, and the official turned around and kicked the prisoner, and said to the plaintiff with a cruel smile: "It's too cheap to kill him, the king has an order, and today he will be beaten into a puddle of rotten meat, and if he can survive by chance, he will also be sent to the Golden Valley and the devil's land to do hard labor for a lifetime, and the money they earn will be yours." ”
After speaking, without waiting for the plaintiff to speak, seeing that Ouyang Xiu's skewers had already landed, the two vicious officials peeled off the prisoners and splashed a basin of ice water on their backs, and then, the board was as dense as raindrops and fell on their buttocks and backs.
The screams of the prisoners were high-pitched for a while, and the ghosts and wolves howled will be embellished with hell on earth.
All kinds of applause covered up the screams of the prisoners, and even the geese flying north in spring did not dare to fly through here.
The prisoner who had been beaten with 80 boards was kicked off the bench by the officer, and even the injured plaintiff couldn't help but gasp when he saw a man whose body was smashed rolling on the ground like an insect repellent.
Some people survived, while others didn't.
If someone carefully counts the living and the dead, it will be strange to find that most of the dead are mercenaries from the Qingtang and Western Xia, and even the Khitan, while those who committed crimes in the Song and Han were beaten very badly one by one, but they still had the strength to howl.
Some Song and Han people gritted their teeth and watched the execution, and at the end of the execution, they would often hand some cloth bags to the Tsing Yi Xu officials, and then these Xu officials would stuff the cloth bags into the plaintiff and tell him that this was compensation from the king.
The spineless was compensated, and after bowing or saluting to the high king, he left without worry.
The backbone of the people gritted their teeth and looked at the prisoners who were still alive, hoping to see them die.
They refused to accept compensation from the government and only wanted the fairest possible trial.
There was a commotion in the ranks of the Song and Han people, and everyone was staring at Tie Xinyuan, who was high above.
At some point, the Song and Han Chinese had formed a vast alliance, and they regarded themselves as royalty.
The reason why this is the case comes from Tie Xinyuan's sentence, all Song people and Han people are his brothers in life and death.
It is because of this sentence that in last year's ******, the Song people and Han people willingly took out all their food, regardless of whether they were rich or poor, they ate the same meal as pig food in the canteen until today.
Now, they're going to give back!
Now, they want privileges!
Most of the Song and Han people don't care about the life or death of those Song and Han prisoners, they still have the concept that crime deserves, and they just want to test whether King Hami's words are really valid through these prisoners.
This is the reason why Ouyang Xiu postponed the trial time of these prisoners again and again, if he killed those prisoners easily, he would also kill the hearts of the people who had finally united around Tie Xinyuan.
Privileges can't be given, whether it's Ouyang Xiu or Wang Dayong, they all know what the Hami Congress has become after giving the Song and Han people criminal privileges.
The reward must be given, and this matter needs to be measured by Tie Xinyuan himself.
Tie Xinyuan thought that the benefits of being beaten were simply too much, not only did he not have to give these people any privileges, but even the rewards could be saved.
Otherwise, both privilege and well-known rewards will tear a Hami country in half.
Or uneven halves.
So Tie Xinyuan left his throne, slowly descended from the high platform, and came to the Uighurs, who wanted no money but the lives of their enemies, and said in Turkic words: "You should hate me." ”
A woman holding a child said indifferently, "I just want him to die." ”
Tie Xinyuan shook his head and said: "It's me who didn't control them well, so you should hate me, remember, you can live a good life after hating." ”
The woman raised her head and looked at Tie Xinyuan and said, "My husband is dead. ”
Tie Xinyuan raised his hand and touched the child's dirty face and said, "The child will continue to live, keep him to earn money for you, and the child will grow up healthily."
Now that the world is not good, forget your husband. ”
The woman's tears flowed down and she bent down and said, "Is this my king's command?" ”
Tie Xinyuan sighed and said, "This is my plea. ”
The woman saluted again, "I want him to die, for his shamelessness has tarnished your name and is unworthy to live in this beautiful country." ”
Tie Xinyuan looked back at the terrified prisoner, and said lightly: "Listening to you, you should be a woman who has seen the world, and even know some court etiquette, then, you should understand that the prosperity of the Hami Kingdom has just begun, and if I kill many people, it is not in the interests of the Hami Kingdom." Naturally, it is not in the interests of you, a subject of Hami, either.
Is it okay for the king to deprive him of his yellow book and make it back to your children? ”
As soon as Tie Xinyuan's words came out, there was a commotion around him, and he immediately answered: "My merciful king, does your kindness also apply to us?" ”
Tie Xinyuan smiled slightly: "No, she is just a special case, as for what I owe you, I am ready to repay it in another way." ”
Tie Xinyuan refused, smiled at the child in the woman's arms, and raised his legs to get back on the high platform.
He said aloud: "My people have sinned, and now they will die, and those who have been hurt will die.
Whether it is a prisoner of sin or a dead people, my heart aches greatly, because it is the absence of the law, and it is the guilt of me, the king.
Today, I swear by the blood of the royal family that no one will be able to transcend the law from now on, and if there is, it will be my blood! ”
After Tie Xinyuan finished speaking, he opened his arms and let Yu Chiwen and the guards strip off their robes and robes, revealing their white backs.
Without waiting for the people outside the venue to speak, a cowhide whip more than a foot long was whipped fiercely on Tie Xinyuan's back with a piercing wind.
A blood ridge more than a foot long suddenly appeared on Tie Xinyuan's back, red and white, Tie Xinyuan snorted, and involuntarily clenched his fists.
"The king must not!" An old man of the Song people shouted, wanting to break through the samurai's blockade and enter the field, and the rest of the Song people and Han people also woke up like a dream, and the crowd suddenly became turbulent.
When the warriors were entangled with the people, the whip in Meng Yuanzhi's hand whistled and fell on Tie Xinyuan's back again, and the two criss-cross whip marks were clearly recognizable, the whip marks were staggered, and a wisp of blood flowed down Tie Xinyuan's backbone.
Tie Xinyuan's body shook violently, gritted his teeth and stood firm and shouted, "Come again!" ”
Meng Yuan looked at the people who were about to break through the samurai blockade with a smile, the whip in his hand was raised again, and the jet-black cowhide whip circled in mid-air like a python, and landed on Tie Xinyuan's back again.
The Uighur woman, listening to the sound of the whip breaking through the wind, cried out in a terrible voice: "I will not pursue it." ”
Tie Xinyuan heard the woman's scream, turned his head with difficulty and said, "Thank you!" ”
With one of them taking the lead, the rest of the unrelenting Uighurs had no choice but to grit their teeth and change their position, looking at Tie Xinyuan's bloody back, finally taking the compensation from the hands of the officials, and turning to leave. (To be continued.) )
