Chapter 404: The whole family was beheaded

Chen Mingxia saw himself as a minister of the Qing court, but the Manchurian aristocracy regarded Hanchen as a minion.

Since Xia Yu started the world, although ancient China respected the Son of Heaven, but there has always been the idea of the co-governance of monarchs and ministers. In the eyes of the scholar class, the world is not unique to kings, and scholars also have the mission of stabilizing the world.

In the Song Dynasty, Zhang Zai said, "Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations." This is also the embodiment of scholars' thoughts.

It can be seen that the ancient scholars and officials had the idea of helping the world, the spirit of dedication, and ideals and ambitions. This is the lack of spirit in the contemporary, incomparable, most people are officials nowadays, probably "I have today~"

Chen Mingxia was dedicated to the Qing court, but in the eyes of the Manchu nobles, the slave accused the master, then this was a rebellion.

The Qing Dynasty did not need thoughtful ministers, but slaves who listened to their words.

This New Year, for this year's Beijing, is destined to be a bloody year, originally just a bit of a New Year's flavor, but under the arrest of the Eight Banners, there is nothing left, all that is left is everyone is in danger, and the terror that spreads throughout the city.

In just two days, more than 300 officials were imprisoned, and only half of the Qing court's civil officials in Beijing went at once, and thousands of dependents were implicated.

Most of the officials who were arrested were stunned for a while, "It was the regent who ordered us to put forward our opinions, and we just did it, why did it suddenly become a party for personal gain, criticizing the government and government, with bad intentions?" ”

At this time, a group of people reacted, and Dolgon's fundamental intention hurriedly wrote to defend himself, and the general meaning was, "We are loyal to the Qing Dynasty, and there is no ambition and the like." ”

In the Qing Palace, Dolgon was also surprised by the arrest of more than 300 Wenchen, but he did not stop it, but as time went by, it seemed that the New Year was coming, but the matter did not subside, but there was a tendency to expand, and he was a little anxious.

In the study, Dolgon said to Zhan with a cold face: "Hmph, these people are really colluding, it's only been a few days, there is a scholar Feng Quan in the Beijing Division, and there are local governors, all of whom are interceding for Chen Mingxia, which is simply unreasonable." ”

Zhan Ba knelt on the ground and replied: "Regent, there are various relationships between literati, such as protΓ©gΓ©s, former officials, classmates, and the same year, and the connection between each person is inextricably linked. This is a very common thing, and the regent does not have to take it seriously. ”

Dorgon frowned, "According to your meaning, there will only be more and more people who write to intercede, can't this king deal with those thieves?" ”

"Back to the regent, this matter is actually very simple, it only needs to be dealt with quickly, for those officials who write to the book, as long as the regent issues an explicit decree prohibiting further discussion of this matter, they will not dare to disobey the regent's will."

Three hundred civil officials is not a small number for the Qing Dynasty, but these people are bent on sinicizing the Qing court, but he can't tolerate it, the cornerstone of the Manchu Qing is the Eight Banners, and these Han people are just the ruling tools of the Qing court.

The tools are gone, you can find them again, the cornerstone is destroyed, the Qing Dynasty is not the Qing Dynasty, these Han people criticize the three laws, they are destroying the interests of the Eight Banners, such people, even if there is only one Dolgon, they can't tolerate it, not to mention a large number of them.

"This matter will be handed over to Master Zhan to deal with, according to the law, those who should be killed will be killed, and those who should be exiled will be exiled, at the last court meeting a year ago, this king does not want there to be ministers discussing this matter, understand?"

"Chirp ~ the slave obeys the order."

"Very good, you can go down and do it~" Dolgon waved his hand.

At this time, Zhan Ba hurriedly and respectfully withdrew from the study, but the scholar Feng Quan suddenly came over, he glanced at Zhan Ba and ignored it, but knelt down and said: "Qiyu Regent, Prince Su has an expedited excerpt, which will be sent from Hanzhong." ”

When Zhan Ba heard this, his heart moved, but he didn't dare to stop, so he had to retreat first.

Dolgon frowned slightly, Hauge was his political enemy, what could be the matter with the excerpt he sent from Hanzhong in an urgent manner?

Zhan Ba got Dolgon's will, and rushed to the criminal department without stopping, conveyed Dolgon's meaning to many officials, and began the trial.

The tone was set above, and the work below was naturally fast, because most of the officials who wrote this time were Han bureaucrats from the south, and some of them were members of the Donglin Party.

According to the origins of the officials, Zhan Ba quickly defined these officials as the "Southern Party", and Chen Mingxia became a well-deserved leader of the Southern Party.

Within the Qing court, the banner officials of the Han army who belonged to the "old people of Liaodong", as well as the northern Han officials who surrendered to the Qing court earlier, were also very dissatisfied with the Qing court's recruitment of a large number of former Ming officials from the south of the Yangtze River and occupied a large number of positions in the imperial court.

Soon, Chen Mingxia was formed into a party, was privately owned, was attacked for government affairs, and was conceived of the former dynasty with bad intentions.

Although Chen Mingxia only admitted that he had kept his hair, what Fu Yiguan said was true, and the other charges were slander, but this did not prevent Zhan Ba from convicting him.

Three days later, the Yugoslav case was concluded, and Chen Mingxia was sentenced to behead his entire family, and among the officials implicated, 180 were sentenced to death, 70 were exiled, and more than 50 were dismissed from their official posts and relegated to their hometowns.

Why not kill them all? After Zhan Ba discussed with Wang Xu, he felt that after all, this incident happened in Beijing, too far away from Jiangnan, and after all of them were killed, the news and inside story would not be easy to spread, so it was necessary to leave a group of people so that they could spread the follow-up impact of this matter locally.

On the 23rd day of the lunar month, at the entrance of the vegetable market in Beijing, Chen Mingxia's family of more than 20 people, wearing prison clothes, kneeling on the cold street, Zhan Ba picked up the roster and took a look, except for Chen Mingxia's eldest brother and mother in Jiangnan's hometown, the Chen family in Beijing has already knelt here.

At noon at this time, Zhan Ba threw the arrow away, and shouted, "Chop~"

The first to be pushed out was naturally Chen Mingxia, compared with the high spirits a few days ago, he was already disheartened at this time, his pigtails had been scattered, and it showed his end of the road.

At this time, he looked at Zhan Ba and couldn't help but grit his teeth and asked, "Why did you hurt me~"

Zhan Ba didn't answer, and after half a ring, he suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed to the big sun in the sky, as if to remind the executioner of the time, but Chen Mingxia was slightly stunned when he saw this, and then laughed presumptuously: "Heaven and earth have their own way, and they will distinguish between turbidity and clarity in the future." ”

He laughed for a moment, and then his expression was gloomy again, "I was going to have my heart to the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch~hahaha~"

At this time, the executioner had already pressed him down, and chopped off with a ring knife, and immediately separated the human head, and blood splattered five steps.

Zhan Ba didn't have a trace of expression when he saw this, he watched the Chen family being killed one by one, and finally his eyes fell on Chen Mingxia's youngest son Chen Xuelin, the law of the Qing Dynasty inherited the Ming Dynasty, under normal circumstances, the death penalty is not sentenced under the age of fifteen, he walked to Chen Xuelin's side and said: "According to the law of the Qing Dynasty, the age of fifteen is exempt from capital punishment, you are still young, stay aside~"

When Chen Xuelin heard this, he said: "My father and brother are dead, and I don't want to live alone, please kill me too~"

Zhan Ba was slightly stunned, and couldn't help but stretch out a thumb and praise: "What a strange man!" Then he turned back to the official behind him and said, "Change it to fifteen and kill them together." ”
