In a sense, Zhu Changluo's rhetorical question is a reality!

As an official, most of the time it is true that you can transcend the Great Ming Law, or more accurately, China has not been a country where the rule of law is supreme since ancient times, whether it is the Ming Law, or the Song Law, the Tang Law, and even the Han Law, it is a law formulated for the common people.

Because in China, there are too many things that can be above the law, not to mention the imperial power, although there has been a saying that the prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people, but if you think about it carefully, you will know that this sentence is about the same crime, not the same punishment!

And the origin of this sentence is the biography of the Shang monarch in the historical records, it is rumored to be from the famous scholar Shang Yang of the Legalist family, if you want to say that ancient China has the most thorough implementation of the law, it must be the time when Shang Ying changed the law, but the interesting thing is that even the famous Shang Yang did not implement this sentence.

When Shang Ying changed the law in Qin, King Qin Huiwen, who was still the prince, broke the law at the instigation of the disciples, according to the law, he should be punished with punishment and stabbing in the face, but because of the special status of King Qin Huiwen, in the end, even Shang Ying had to compromise and replace the prince with the two teachers who punished the prince, and finally calmed down the turmoil.

Not to mention that since the Tang Dynasty, all dynasties and dynasties have had eight discussions, with the discussion of relatives, reason, virtue, ability, merit, nobility, diligence, and guests as the eight discussions, all prisoners who meet these eight regulations, although they cannot be completely exempted from punishment, but at least reduce the punishment of one degree or more is above board.

So all along, whether in the concept of the courtiers, or in the concept of the previous emperor, there is no group of officials included in the jurisdiction of the Ming Law, open the history books and take a look at it, the Ming Dynasty because of offending the emperor, or favoritism and malpractice There are many officials who were dismissed, but the officials committed crimes, through normal judicial procedures, and the officials who were really reviewed by the three divisions and punished by the Ming Law should be said to be none......

So when the Son of Heaven said that Hui Shiyang would be punished according to the Ming Law, all the ministers were in a trance, what went wrong?

Is the Son of Heaven wrong? It doesn't seem to be either.

Hui Shiyang is indeed a citizen of the Ming Dynasty, since he is a citizen of the Ming Dynasty, of course there is nothing wrong with being bound by the law, but obviously, in the past, such examples were all dismissed officials, how come now, it seems that the officials in the matter of Hui have been dismissed in vain?

Before the ministers could figure out the twists and turns, Wan Shide stepped forward and spoke.

"Your Majesty, according to the law, you should be punished by exile, and in view of the seriousness of the crime committed, the minister thinks that it is most appropriate to have a hundred rods and three thousand miles!"

Wan Zongxian can now see that the Son of Heaven is determined to take advantage of Huishi this time, rather than letting others say these words, it is better for him to say it himself.

In any case, the matter among the Kedao Yanguan is better solved by Kedao himself, although it is said that today's group of imperial historians have lost Kedao's face, but as the official seal of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the leader of Kedao, Wan Shide still wants to try his best to save the dignity of Kedao Yanguan.

Seeing Wan Shide come forward, Zheng Jizhi, the secretary of Dali Temple, and Zhao Huan, the secretary of the Criminal Department, took a step back with interest, you know, today Kedao can be regarded as losing face, as the head of Kedao, Wan Shide's mood at the moment must not be very good, it is better not to mess with him......

"Okay, according to what the General Constitution said, Hui Shiyang embezzled and accepted bribes of nearly 70,000 taels, according to the law of the Ming Dynasty, a hundred rods, three thousand miles, and all the family property was confiscated!"

The so-called king, Chrysostom Yuyan, the exit became a constitution, Zhu Changluo opened his mouth lightly, which can be regarded as a complete determination of Hui Shiyang's fate.

Hui Shiyang sat on the bluestone brick floor, dumbfounded and couldn't say anything, a moment ago he was still high-spirited, the leader of the imperial history, ambitious and planned to admonish the king, his name in the annals of history, but in a blink of an eye, he became a corrupt official and corrupt official who everyone spurned, and even faced the punishment of exile, the gap is not small.

If it had been placed just now, maybe such a huge blow would have been enough to make Hui Shiyang completely collapse and have the idea of seeking death, but just now, he had seen a scene of suicide by hitting the wall, although it did not happen to him, but the deep fear of You Shiren at that time was imprinted in his heart, so that now, he didn't even have the courage to commit suicide, so he could only collapse to the ground and let the two Jinyi Guard lieutenants drag him down.

"Next, You Shiren, as mentioned by Jin Yiwei, you are good at arresting good people and deceiving the court, this is the first crime of being corrupt and perverting the law, conniving at the right, so that the rule is chaotic, and there is a crime of dereliction of duty, this is the second crime, bribery and buying officials, boldness, inviting fame to buy straight, coercing the king, this is the third crime, three major crimes, do you have any objections?"

Simply ordered someone to drag Hui Shiyang down, or did not leave any time for the ministers to react, Zhu Changluo turned his gaze to You Shiren on the side.

"Minister...... No objections! ”

The moment you Shiren confessed, he was already fully aware of his fate, originally he still had the same idea as Hui Shiyang, and wanted to escape responsibility by resigning, but Hui Shiyang's example fully made him realize how ridiculous his thoughts were, but it was okay, Hui Shiyang was exiled for three thousand miles, and he would never be worse than him, so that the two of them could be a companion on the road.

"Your Majesty, the wanderer has many criminals, and his crimes are extremely heinous, and he should confiscate his family property and exile him according to ......the law."

Seeing that Youshiren bowed his head and confessed, Wan Shide shook his head, stepped forward again, and spoke.

But before he finished his words, he saw the Son of Heaven on the throne raise his right hand and stop his next words, although he didn't know what he meant, but Wan Shide still obediently stopped.

But seeing that above the royal car, the face of the Son of Heaven, who had always been indifferent, suddenly became cold, and he stared at the wanderer Ren below and said.

"You Shiren, do you know that you arrested and detained those so-called "mobs" in prison, and seven of them committed suicide because of unbearable humiliation? Do you know that the humiliated girl you ignored committed suicide by throwing herself into a well after being humiliated? Do you know that the wealthy and right-hand families who have been connived at by you have been rampant and lawless in the past few years, causing dozens of families to be displaced? Do you know how many of my people have been living in misery because of your dereliction of duty! ”

Every time Zhu Changluo said a word, his tone became colder, and in the end, he was even more angry, looking at You Shiren with an undisguised, incomparably strong killing intent in his eyes.

Every time he spoke, the pressure on the hearts of the ministers became heavier, and everyone could feel the deep anger hidden under the calm tone of the Son of Heaven.

"Your Majesty......"

Unlike the ministers, the bigwigs of the gangster group, especially the first assistant Wang Xijue and Li Tingji, who are familiar with Zhu Changluo's temperament, felt a strong uneasiness in their hearts, and at that moment the two of them stood up without hesitation and gave up their words.

But before the two of them could speak, Zhu Changluo had already sat down again, and a cold voice sounded, covering the voices of the two adults.

"Where is Jin Yiwei? Guangxi Provincial Imperial History Traveler was corrupt and perverted the law, deceived the monarch and disobeyed, dereliction of duty and broke the law, causing the people to be displaced, the family was ruined, and the sentence was ...... Beheading! Decide! No forgiveness! ”
