Chapter 832: The Father's Sin Is Inferior to the Son's
The period of the big reading set by Du Shiyi Jietang has not yet arrived, but there is an unexpected thing in the Shuofang Jiedu Embassy. Shuofang Jiedu judge came to Shengyan and several other Yatui notes, as well as the Lingzhou Governor's Mansion recorded the military Wu Bo, six or seven people jointly signed a joint name to Du Shiyi to participate in the former Jiedu secretary Ye Wenjun forcibly accepted the people's daughters, took the maid as a concubine, and accepted bribes to say favors...... There are a total of seven or eight charges. Although it is all fragmented, it is not a small sin to add it together, and it was not a few days after Li Yi, the king of Xin'an, left office, so there was a lot of discussion outside for a while.
If Du Shiyi is really so magical, as soon as he arrives, he can make those henchmen who were used by Li Yi in the past turn against him, and stab his former colleagues, which is also incredible!
After all, he has been a judge of the festival for many years, and soon the generals of the Jinglu Army came to listen to the rumors. He also did not refuse, and solemnly pointed out that Ye Wenjun's various bad deeds were all conclusive evidence, but they used to be unbearable in the face of their colleagues, but now they can't bear it. And when others asked why they couldn't bear it now, they came to Shengyan but kept silent. He has such a tight mouth, and others are even more confused, and they have to go to others to inquire again, but every individual has been solemnly warned by the saint, and he knows that if he really thinks about Li Yi, it is better to have more than one thing and one less thing, so he refuses to mention more.
After coming and going, even Li Yan, the deputy envoy of Shuofang Jiedu, was a little curious. On this day, he went to Lingwu Hall to see Du Shiyi, and after talking about what he had seen and heard in the Jingluo Army in the past few days, he finally couldn't help asking: "Dashuai, I heard that Shengyan and others came out to report Ye Wenjun, and now the Jingluo Army is spreading all over the world, and it is said that the new official of the Great Shuai took office, and the first fire burned to Ye Wenjun, the secretary in charge used by the eldest brother. I know the character of the handsome man best, it is definitely not such a person, I remember that the eldest brother recommended a lot of civil and military affairs to the handsome, but there is no Ye Wenjun, is there something wrong with this Ye Wenjun? ”
"The old general is really old and strong, that's right, King Xin'an has made outstanding achievements, how old he is, Wu Wenyan, an idle son of the Wu family, why does he have any dealings with King Xin'an? It was Ye Wenjun who coveted the benefits promised by the messenger, so he wrote a letter to Wu Wenyan under the pretense of the handwriting of King Xin'an. King Xin'an just didn't want to make a difference, so he didn't press it, but when he recommended someone to me before leaving, it was already very clear. The secretary has always been a confidant of the festival, and King Xin'an will even tell me in detail about a yatui and a note in the shogunate, so how could he miss a secretary Ye Wenjun? ”
Du Shiyi just hinted at it, seeing that Shengyan really had a big package, he couldn't help but secretly sigh that Li Yi knew people back then. He didn't want some people in the DPRK to know that the first thing he did after taking office was to help Li Yi cut off the culprit who moved him to the left. However, for the veteran Li Yan, who he specially wanted to help, he didn't hide it. After explaining what happened when he and Shengyan went to see Ye Wenjun, he saw that Li Yan was really angry, so he hurriedly persuaded a few words.
"Old general, the matter has come to this, and it doesn't help to be angry, and finally avenged King Xin'an."
"Sure enough, he knows people and faces, but he doesn't know his heart, Ye Wenjun's fang is really hateful!"
After scolding angrily, Li Yan finally calmed down. He didn't say anything to help Li Yi get justice, the Son of Heaven killed Wu Wenyan with a rod before, and almost all the people involved with him were moved to the left, and the wood was already in the boat, Li Yi himself didn't move the people after he noticed it, but just hinted at Du Shiyi quietly, what else did he have to say? So, he asked bluntly: "Dare to ask how the marshal plans to deal with this Ye Wenjun?" ”
"If you marry a wife or concubine in vain, you will be given two degrees according to adultery. Adultery is punished with a hundred rods, and two more than two years and a half. As for the money and money entrusted to the favor, it will be added to the two levels according to the stolen goods. The maximum sentence for sitting on stolen goods is one and a half years in prison, and the maximum sentence for bribes he has received has reached one and a half years. Since the two sins are combined, three years in prison, plus miscellaneous other crimes, although the crime does not lead to death, the flow of 3,000 li is the least. ”
Du Shiyi knew everything about Yonghui Law, and there was no stagnation in talking at the moment, Li Yan was relieved for a while, and nodded with a sigh of relief: "If you can let this fang flow three thousand miles away, it is enough to comfort the eldest brother." In any case, fortunately, the handsome man is discerning, and he is also a responsible person who comes to Shengyan! I am in the army, and when my eldest brother is leaving, he has recommended me to a few trustworthy people, and I will definitely try my best to appease them. ”
Li Yan came and went faster, and hurriedly returned to the Jingluo Army. As for the case that suddenly broke out as soon as he took office, Du Shiyi handed it over to Zhang Xing, the judge of Jiedu. On the day of the trial, the grand occasion when the military and civilians helped the old and the young to come to observe, although it could not be said that it was an empty alley, it was still a gathering of the civil and military forces in Lingzhou, although Du Shiyi did not go in person, but Huya was ordered to go. After listening to the results, he came back and told all kinds of details, and Du Shiyi smiled when he heard it.
After waking up from the wine, Ye Wenjun naturally wanted to try his best to save the situation, but he came to Shengyan and the others were all the people he was most familiar with in the past, and after going into battle repeatedly, he was speechless. Even later, when Ye Wenjun threatened to threaten him, the reaction he faced was unexpectedly tough.
"At that time, Ye Wenjun said, 'Even if I have all kinds of bad deeds before, you all know about it, but now I am the first to make a statement, and I should be guilty of covering up!' However, Shengyan said that he did not know about his strong acceptance of the people's daughters before, and this time he only learned that the concubines in his house ran out to raise their hair. As for his personal favors, etc., everyone originally thought it was out of public intentions, but it turned out that it was from the mouth of the concubine in his mansion that he was receiving money. Even if the court talks about the crime, they would rather fight to get the crime they deserve, and they must let him deserve it! ”
Speaking of this, Huya couldn't help but sigh: "The big handsome didn't go to see it in person, then Ye Wenjun couldn't get up in one breath, so he fell down and fainted!" Among the generals who listened later, there were also many scolding and scolding that Ye Wenjun was a hypocrite in the past, and now he deserves it. However, Ye Wenjun's children are still underage, although he was so beautiful in the past and didn't care much about them, his eldest son still avenged his father. At this time, although the previous trial case was dispersed, he was still kneeling outside the gate of the Lingzhou Governor's Mansion. ”
Although there are not many crimes against the children of the family in the laws of the Tang Dynasty, the situation under the king's anger is a special case. Du Shiyi knew that the reason why Lai Shengyan punished Ye Wenjun in this way was because he felt that it would not provoke a strong backlash from the DPRK and China, and as for Ye Wenjun's children, no one could take care of them in a fit of anger. At this moment, he thought about it for a while, and then he opened his mouth and ordered: "In this way, you go and bring Ye Wenjun's eldest son to see me." ”
In the biting cold wind of the first month, Ye Wenjun's eldest son, Ye Tianmin, knelt there straight, ignoring the various stares around him. He has persuaded the other younger brothers and sisters to go back, even if his father has always been indifferent to him, the eldest son who has no mother, and can even be said to be ruthless, but father and son are family after all, at the age of fourteen, as the eldest son, he can't just watch his father being exiled for 3,000 miles.
But after kneeling for only two quarters of an hour, he only felt an indescribable cold spread down his knees to his whole body, and even his teeth shivered. As soon as he thought of his father's fate, all the clansmen who were usually stammering were eyeing him, and he had to straighten his back.
Even if it's for himself, as well as his younger brothers and sisters, he can't leave it to fate!
I don't know how long it took for him to finally see a big man with a tiger's back coming out of the Lingzhou Governor's Mansion. Knowing that it was Du Shiyi's confidant in the mouth of the audience today, he couldn't help but have some expectations, and sure enough, the other party slowly came to him, looked him up and down, and then stretched out his big hand like a fan, and actually picked him up directly.
Ye Tianmin was shocked and angry for a while: "You ......"
"At a young age, it's not good to learn anything, learn from others to kneel and complain! Fortunately, the handsome man sympathized with your father's unkindness to you, but you have such filial piety at a young age, follow me in! ”
The people who were watching the excitement saw that Ye Tianmin was actually brought in by Du Shiyi, and they pointed and talked about it for a while. And Ye Tianmin himself, what shocked him even more was that Du Shiyi bluntly said that his father was unkind to him!
Although his father was once one of Li Yi's henchmen, Ye Tianmin still stepped into the Lingzhou Governor's Mansion for the first time, and it was also the first time to enter the Lingwu Hall where the Jiedu envoy governed affairs. Seeing that the big man who brought him in saluted and silently retreated to Du Shiyi's side, he immediately woke up, gritted his teeth and knelt down and kowtowed: "Dashuai, I am here to avenge my father's grievances!" ”
"Since you said the word "grievance", there is no need to say anything else. Get up, and I'll tell you a story. ”
Du Shiyi saw Ye Tianmin kneeling on the ground and not moving, he didn't force the young man, and said calmly: "Once upon a time, there was a scribe with a wealthy family, but he was not ranked in the field for many years, but God still favored him, and a general who guarded his hometown took a fancy to his talent, so he recruited him as a subordinate official and trusted him. He was also conscientious at first, but his conduct was not very good, he was lustful and famous, but since these were not out of line, the general did not take it to heart. But what I didn't expect was that someone in the capital wanted to involve the general in something that might anger the king, and the general naturally refused, but the scribe was actually tempted by others and forged the general's handwriting to write a reply. You say, what is the end result? ”
Although Ye Tianmin said that he was young, he was unusually precocious, as early as when he found that Du Shiyi was very similar to his father as mentioned earlier, his face suddenly became extremely pale, and when he heard the most gloomy, he couldn't help but shout: "Impossible, grandpa can't do this kind of thing!" ”
"Think for yourself, have you ever been in and out of your house like that? And Sheng Yan and the others had a very close relationship with your father, why did seven or eight people fall into the well together? If it weren't for hatred, how could it be! A manly man should know the truth of right and wrong! ”
Ye Tianmin was stunned. After a long time, his straight back finally bent down, and he fell to the ground and cried bitterly. His father didn't like him, and he knew that it was said that his mother disliked his father's lust and tried repeatedly, and he kept arguing with him, so after his mother's death, his father was even more disgusted with him. And the other younger siblings are all the concubines and maids of their fathers, because their biological mothers either fell out of favor later or gave them away, so most of them are not taken seriously. But, after all, how could his father do such an ungrateful thing?
"Unfaithful, unfilial, unkind, unjust, your father is like that!" Du Shiyi knew how cruel his words were to a young child, but he didn't want to create the tragedy of Zhang Xiansu's two sons again, and there were some things that had to be made clear to Ye Tianmin. After spitting out this sentence coldly, he saw Ye Tianmin supporting the ground with both hands, and his whole person kept trembling, he remembered that when he was in Songshan, he was about the same age as him, and the situation of the Ye family had already made people clear, and he couldn't help but sigh again.
"The father is not guilty of the son, your father deserves it, but your children are innocent. After he is convicted, there must be people who covet your Ye family's property, and you are a young man who has no ability to protect himself, so he will definitely not be able to protect his family's property and younger siblings. Have mercy on you, and I will regularly send people to take care of you and your younger siblings in the future! ”
Ye Tianmin raised his head in disbelief, and after struggling for a while, his trembling shoulders finally fell completely: "Grandpa did such a thing to be sorry for King Xin'an, how can I be taken care of by the handsome?" I am approaching adulthood, and I am willing to do my best in the saddle of the saddle to atone for my father's sins. ”
Well?
Du Shiyi couldn't help but be stunned. It stands to reason that as soon as he took office, the first thing he would do was Ye Wenjun, Ye Tianmin would regard him as a revenge, and leaving such a son of a sinner by his side was tantamount to making trouble for himself. However, looking at the stubborn expression on the thin young man's face, he pondered for a moment and then said lightly: "In this case, there is still a lack of a waiter in my Lingwu Hall to sort out the books, this is a miscellaneous servant, are you willing to do it?" ”
Ye Tianmin didn't want to think about it, so he kowtowed and agreed: "Yes!" ”
"Good!" Du Shiyi nodded, and then instructed Huya, who had been vigilant beside him, "You sent him back, remember to tell the Ye family's relatives and friends that from now on, Ye Tianmin will be by my side." ”
Since Huya was ordered to serve Du Shiyi from Princess Gu'an, in place of Chibi, who is now running around for Princess Gu'an in the Eastern Capital, he naturally obeys Du Shiyi's orders. After he agreed, he stepped forward, and picked up Ye Tianmin on the ground like an eagle catching a chicken before. After taking the person outside the door and letting him go to the ground, he stared coldly at the young man who was at least two heads shorter than himself, and said word by word: "If you are just filial piety and are willing to serve the marshal for the sake of your younger brothers and sisters, then that's it." But if you harbor evil intentions, then don't blame me for being ruthless! ”
Even a child can't be easily underestimated these days!
Ye Tianmin didn't speak, he lowered his head and sorted out the clothes on his body, and quietly bit his lip.
Although Du Shiyi said it was reasonable and well-founded, no matter what, he had to ask Sheng Yan and the others in person. If the father really deserves it, then he should atone for his sins henceforth; Otherwise, he will take revenge for this false accusation!
