Chapter 348: "Chopping" and "Slave"
Early the next morning, the announcement of the Supervision Department was posted again, the general content was that Hu Yishan should be punished for his crimes, however, after the adults considered that the single beheading was not enough to make the people angry, and changed it to slavery, of course, the slave punishment was not finally topped, but the details of the specific implementation were introduced, and anyone who had been bullied by Hu Yishan could be driven by Hu Yishan, and he did not need to pay wages.
At the same time, two options were set up below, one was beheading, but slavery, and the two options allowed the people to choose one to execute, and this one action suddenly exploded throughout the city.
All the people rushed to tell each other, shouting in amazement, the Great Song Dynasty has been founded for so many years, and they have not heard of it, let the people decide, so some people are strange, some people are afraid, some people are eager to try, and some people are worried about some conspiracy......
As a result, although the notice had been posted and there were many onlookers, no one dared to come forward to vote, not even a single one.
Seeing such a situation, the officials of the Supervision Department had no choice but to report it, and after Zhuo Yan knew the situation, he went to the scene in person, but to no avail, just when he was worried, Yue Shaoan sent someone to whisper a few words to him.
Zhuo Yan listened, smiled slightly, and then, announced again, the first person to vote, can get a piece of fifty taels of silver, at first, among the people, still no one dared to try, but, as the so-called heavy reward must have a brave man, after a while, finally a person stood up, picked up a wooden stick on the table, looked at the two large wooden barrels with "chop" and "slave" written respectively, and threw the wooden stick into the bucket with the word "chop" written on it very casually.
Zhuo Yan immediately asked someone to take fifty taels of silver and handed it to him, originally this person just had the mentality of giving it a try, but he didn't expect to really get two taels of silver, and suddenly his face was happy, and he happily ran back home with the silver.
Then the people were in an uproar and rushed up one after another, all wanting to take the fifty taels of silver, but before they could rush closer, the people on the side of the Supervision Department had spoken, and the fifty taels of silver were only given to the first person, and there were no more people behind.
When the people heard this, Gu Du was greatly disappointed, but more regretted his previous cowardice and did not dare to go up.
However, the next words of the shouting officials gave them some comfort, because although the voters who voted later did not have silver taels, they could take a bag of rice back.
For the people, this thing is like being given for nothing, and that vote is nothing to them now, and most of the people who come forward are running for rice.
After the words of the officials of the Supervision Department finished speaking, Zhuo Yan ordered someone to push a cart of rice directly piled next to the barrel with the word "slave" written on it, the official of the Supervision Department smiled slightly, and said straight to the rice: "You just need to put the wooden stick into the wooden barrel you want to put in and you can go to the rice yourself, remember, each person can only throw one wooden stick, no repeating, children are not allowed to vote...... Do you understand? ”
"Understood—"
"Okay, let's start, when the rice is finished, it's over!"
"Coax-" The people rushed to run here, for them to come, there was only rice in their eyes, as for Hu Yishan's life and death, they didn't care much.
So, almost all of them ran towards the rice pile, threw the sticks into the nearby wooden barrels, and then quickly ran towards the rice bags.
Zhuo Yan stood in the distance and shook his head slightly, Mr. Yue's method is really interesting, in this way, Hu Yishan can't be killed, but, according to Mr. Yue's meaning, even if he can't kill him, it can't make him feel better, and in the future, Mr. Yue will leave it alone, and he Zhuo Yan will have a headache.
A large cart of rice was soon gone, and the wooden barrels on both sides had almost no sticks in the word "chop" written on them, but the ones with the word "slave" written on them were almost full.
The matter was naturally settled in this way, that night, after Zhuo Yan went back, he asked Hu Yishan to teach a good lesson and deepen the second re-education, of course, the gentleman who educated him, but he didn't want Yue Shao'an to educate Zhuo Yan When they were each carrying a leather whip or a wooden stick, every time they said to Hu Yishan, let him remember it in his bones.
At the earliest, Hu Yishan still had hatred in his heart, but later he was beaten more, and the hatred disappeared strangely, and the rest was just scared, now he is so timid, and even sometimes, he hopes that he will be beheaded soon, and it is better than it is difficult to die in the hands of this group of people now.
Fortunately, the time is not long, and there are only four days left before the day of the execution. After four days passed, those who should be beheaded and exiled were all investigated, but Hu Yishan was pressed by others, shackled, and went from house to house to do long-term work.
In Fang's mansion, although Fang's mother still felt sorry for her nephew, but since the old housekeeper came back and told Wen Chengfang about kneeling and kowtowing that day, Fang's mother understood and no longer forced her son to do anything, but faintly regretted it, and was a little afraid in her heart, she was afraid that Wen Chengfang would not break his future because of this incident.
Fortunately, Mrs. Wen understood it and explained to her mother-in-law: "If the emperor really wants to deal with the prince strictly, how can he spare the uncle, the emperor gave in this time, and he didn't want the prince to be too ugly, so he gave him a step down ......"
After hearing this, Wen's mother was relieved, speaking of which, this incident was also caused by him, if she hadn't forced her son to find an errand for her nephew, she wouldn't have appeared, she had harmed her nephew and her son, she figured out this, so she closed her door and stopped at home to care for the elderly.
After Wen Chengfang went through this incident, he also figured out a lot of things, of course, he was grateful to Yue Shaoan from the bottom of his heart, he knew that Yue Shaoan was a person, and he could do this for him this time, which shows how much he values him.
On the second day, Wen Cheng was convenient to learn from the famous general Lian Po in the Warring States Period, carrying Jing Tiao, and ran to the Emperor's Mansion to take the guilt of Jing Tiao, however, Yue Shaoan was not Lin Xiangru, and did not help him up with both hands to welcome him into hospitality.
When he returned it, he was a kick in the ass, and scolded angrily: "If you have this time, you can handle official business for me, and you have nothing to show off your muscles......"
Wen Chengfang was scolded in a daze, only after Yue Shao'an left, he didn't react, Gao Chong, who was watching the play from a distance, couldn't stand it, hehe walked over with a smile: "Wen Tong, hehe, good figure, uh-huh, not bad......"
"General Gao, is this marshal?" Wen Chengfang asked suspiciously.
Gao Chong looked mysterious: "The so-called authorities are fan, you are really confused, obviously, Mr. Yue doesn't blame you, let you go to some office work quickly, don't you understand?" Hey...... Besides, you're dominant, bare-chested, and you don't look good......"
Wen Chengfang suddenly realized, his face was slightly red in embarrassment, he stood up, and hugged his fists: "General Gao, thank you, I have taken my leave......"
"Hey!" Gao Chong smiled and said, "Wen Tong, are you going to go like this?" ”
"Huh?" Wen Chengfang was puzzled: "What else is the matter with General Gao?" ”
Gao Chong threw over a piece of clothing and said: "This is mine, if you don't dislike it, wear it first, and change it when you get home, oh, by the way, you don't have to return it to me, I'm too lazy to ask for it after you finish wearing......"
Although Wen Chengfang understood that Gao Chong was joking, his face changed slightly, and he said with some shame: "Thank you......"
"Wen Tong, you take off the wattle strip on your back first, otherwise you will lose weight when you put on your clothes......"
