"In your opinion, what should you do with these people?" Xiao Mu thought for a while, and found that he hadn't come up with a clue, so he asked Luo Yangxing again. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"In Weichen's humble opinion, Gu Bingqian, Feng Quan, and Wei Guangwei deserve the punishment of exile and confiscation; Xu Xianchun, as the direct murderer of the former "Six Gentlemen" and the later "Seven Gentlemen", should be sentenced to capital punishment and beheaded after the autumn. ”

Xiao Mu listened to Luo Yangxing's thoughts, muttered for a while, and did not speak.

Seeing that Xiao Mu didn't speak, Luo Yangxing thought that Xiao Mu felt that the punishment he just said was a bit heavy, so he continued to add: "Of course, the emperor is now implementing amnesty for the world, in order to show the emperor's forgiveness, Weichen thinks that they can also be punished lightly. ”

"How can you get a lenient punishment?" Xiao Mu asked.

"Gu Bingqian, Feng Quan, and Wei Guangwei cut their nationality and lived for three years to redeem the people; Xu Xianchun could keep his whole body and be hanged instead. ”

"Well, I know what you think, so you can go down first." Xiao Mu said.

Luo Yangxing saw that Xiao Mu did not agree or oppose his opinions, and muttered in his heart, was it too rude to tell the emperor about a few lives just now, which made the emperor unhappy? While regretting it, he had to silently withdraw from the temple.

"Take a ride and go to the queen's bedchamber."

Xiao Mu pondered for a while on his own, but not only did he still not come up with a reason, but he had more doubts. So I decided to go to Lin Yi for a walk, after all, it's not a way to always not meet (in fact, I haven't met for a day), they are also traversers, and they still have to value harmony, as long as they uphold the principle that good men don't fight with women, and adults don't remember villains.

While comforting himself in his heart, Xiao Mu came to Lin Ye's bedroom. In front of a group of palace maids and eunuchs, of course, the two were polite again, behaving like a husband and wife who respected each other. Until he sent away the palace maids and eunuchs who were waiting around, Lin Yi's attitude was still good, and his temper was much better, thinking that it was because he gradually got used to the fact of pregnancy in the past two days, Xiao Mu was also relieved.

So Xiao Mu began to get down to business, telling Lin Yi about Cao Huachun's difficulties, as well as the lives of several eunuch backbones and how to deal with them, and said that he wanted to ask Lin Yi's opinion.

"Oh, you, you are discussing murder with a dignified pregnant woman, and if your son is born in the future and does not learn well, it will be your problem!" Lin Yi complained while saying his opinion, "Of course these people can't be pardoned, as for how to punish them, isn't what Luo Yangxing said quite reasonable, can't you just do it according to the method he said?" ”

"That's Chongzhen's son, not my son, I'm happy to be a father......" After being said by Lin Ye last time that he "likes to be a father", Xiao Mu felt that this word was very interesting, vividly describing his current situation, so he planned to use it from time to time, of course, he only had the opportunity to use it when talking to Lin Ye.

"Didn't you find that there was a lot of suspicion in Luo's plan?" Xiao Mu continued, bringing the topic back on the right track.

"What's suspicious?" Lin Yi asked puzzled.

"Do you think, they are also the backbone of the eunuch party, why is Luo Yangxing's punishment recommendation for those three civil officials so light, although I didn't listen too exactly, but what he said probably means is that he will be fine after a few years of exile, and he can spend money to atone for his crimes; As for Xu Xianchun, his suggestion was particularly ruthless, either beheading or hanging, in short, he couldn't live. The gap between the two is inevitably too big, right? ”

Xiao Mu then said mysteriously: "So, I suspect that Luo Yangxuan must be selfish, maybe he thinks that Xu Xianchun is also from Jinyiwei, and if he doesn't die, it will pose a threat to his status; Or maybe they had any suspicions when they worked together in Jinyiwei before, so they wanted to take this opportunity to rectify and retaliate against Xu Xianchun. In short, his idea is that he must put Xu Xianchun to death, and resolutely cannot let him live, isn't there a saying that 'peers are enemies'? It seems that there is some truth to where this is placed. ”

Lin Yihu looked at Xiao Mu suspiciously for a while, "You really think so?" ”

"yes, do you think my analysis makes sense?" Xiao Mu asked rhetorically.

"It seems that your level of knowledge is even lower than I thought." Lin Yi sighed deliberately and said in an emotional tone.

"Here it is again, does this guy do anything other than mock others......" Xiao Mu thought in his heart, and did not speak.

Lin Yi saw that Xiao Mu's face was displeased, and he knew that Xiao Mu would definitely not be convinced if he didn't say a reason, so he continued: "In my opinion, you really wronged Luo Yang. There may be some truth in your analysis, but that's certainly not the main reason, and I think it's good to be able to account for two achievements. ”

"Then you say, what is the main reason?" Xiao Mu asked.

"The main reason is obvious, that is, the phenomenon of 'noble and lowly' that has appeared since the Song Dynasty, don't you know this?" Lin Yi said and did not forget to continue to laugh at Xiao Mu.

"Huh? Noble and martial? I've heard a little bit of this statement, but you mean that the difference in treatment between the three civil officials and Xu Xianchun is for this reason? Xiao Mu frowned, thinking back to the knowledge he had about ancient history before.

"That's nature. If you think about it, looking at the entire Song Dynasty, have you ever heard of a civil official who was beheaded by the emperor? The most serious punishment for civil servants to make mistakes is only to be sent to the public and exiled. For example, Su Shi, as a loser in the party struggle on the issue of changing the law, was not killed, but was just exiled. In the Ming Dynasty, in the early stage, the status of civil officials was not so high, but since the change of 'Tumubao', the noble military attaches have suffered heavy losses, and the status of the civilian group has been greatly improved. ”

Of course, Xiao Mu didn't know if the civil ministers of the Song Dynasty had been killed by the emperor, so Xiao Mu felt that Lin Ye's statement also had some truth, but he still thought it was not entirely correct: "Then Luo Yangxing, as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, must be counted as a military attaché, according to what you said about 'civil and noble and lowly', he will really be willing?" ”

"This can only be explained that the concept of 'noble and martial' has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and Luo Yangxing has taken this for granted when considering the problem, and he doesn't feel that there is anything wrong." Lin Yi continued to explain, "If Luo Yangxing wants to kill Xu Xianchun because of the so-called 'peers are enemies' as you said, then if you take the same question and ask those Wenchen of the sect, will they give diametrically opposite suggestions, for example, for Gu Bingqian, Feng Quan, Wei Guangwei and other peers, they will be sentenced to death, and Xu Xianchun will be open? Anyway, I don't think it's possible. ”

Xiao Mu had to admit that Lin Ye's opinion was very reasonable at this time, and he also planned to come to Zongdao and wait for Wenchen to come and ask if he was free, and verify whether what Lin Ye said would happen.

"Isn't that unreasonable if it's really what you say?" Xiao Mu asked again.

"What's unreasonable?"

Xiao Mu replied: "You think, although Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou and other Donglin Party gentlemen were killed by Xu Xianchun, but he must have been instructed by Wei Zhongxian to dare to move. Without the tacit approval from above, did he dare to kill people in Xu Xian's innocence? I don't believe it anyway. As for Gu Bingqian, Feng Quan, and Wei Guangwei, they must have also played a considerable role in this, even if they did not instigate murder, they must have coordinated murder, their criminal responsibility should only be heavier than Xu Xianchun, how could they be punished so lightly? This is too unreasonable! ”

"Well, according to what you say, it's indeed a little unreasonable, but who let this be the Ming Dynasty, just like you men can have several wives, it's obviously unreasonable."

"These are two different things, besides, Concubine Tian and Concubine Yuan are the concubines of Emperor Chongzhen in the original history, they have nothing to do with me, and I don't have the idea of continuing to recruit beauties from all over the world to enrich the harem." Xiao Mu brought the topic back on track, "In short, I have decided that this matter should be handled fairly, and for these leaders, either kill them all or not at all." ”

"It's so serious on this issue, it feels like you're an obsessive-compulsive person, are you a Virgo?" Ringo asked.

"yes, I'm a Virgo, how do you know?" Seeing that Lin Yi repeatedly brought the topic crookedly, Xiao Mu tried to pull the topic back again, "Anyway, I have already decided on this matter, don't even think about pulling the eight cows back!" ”

"Now you're implementing a policy of amnesty for the world, so that means you won't kill them all?" Ringo asked.

"Well, when you say that, it looks like their lives have been saved." Xiao Mu came to a conclusion, and at the same time sighed, "I am just an ordinary person, and this kind of thing is something that I can't think of before I crossed over." ”

"Having said that, the head you just analyzed is the Tao, and it is also the 'noble and martial arts', and the 'change of the civil fort', are these all things that you originally mastered?" Xiao Mu asked curiously.

"These things, of course, are fully fused with the knowledge I traveled before I traveled and the original memories of Queen Zhou, and my level of integration is not bad, right?" Lin Ye replied boastfully.

Xiao Mu was stimulated again, and he didn't want to talk about this matter anymore, lest Lin Yi keep bragging endlessly. changed the topic again: "I'm researching two interesting things for you in the past two days, and I'll send them to you when the time comes, you can find Queen Zhang, as well as Concubine Tian and Concubine Yuan to play with." ”

"Your imperial sister-in-law came here once yesterday, said a few words and left, you don't know the pain of having no common language and no words to say." Lin Yi grumbled.

"Well, people are very clever, and you definitely can't talk about needlework and other things." It's rare to find an opportunity, Xiao Mu said mockingly.
