Chapter 147 Public Trial

Lu'er is dead, and only Caiyi is left in Xie Shence's small courtyard.

Soon after Lu'er's death, Sima arranged for two little maidservants to go to Xie Shence's small courtyard.

Although there are more people, the atmosphere can never go back to the past. Caiyi's originally quiet temperament has become more and more deserted, and now except for Xie Shence, few people can see Caiyi's smiling face.

However, even Xie Shence felt a faint loneliness and silence from Caiyi's smile. It's just that now that the reorganization of the Tiqi Division has reached the last moment, Xie Shence really can't spare much time to enlighten her.

On this day, Xie Shence leaned back in his chair, his feet on the table, and looked at the blue sky outside the Ti Cavalry through the ebony window.

It's been almost four months

Xie Shence moved his gaze back to the desk, where there was a stack of materials with information from more than a dozen people. Among these people are officials, scholars, and sergeants, all of whom were originally quite well-known figures in the Jin capital, and at this time, their information was placed on Xie Shence's desk, waiting for Xie Shence's verdict.

To kill, or not to kill.

This is a problem.

It's not because of how sensitive these people's identities are, but Xie Shence is really a little unbearable about picking up a red pen and then writing a scribbled word "kill".

There have been so many people killed in the past few months. So much so that Xie Shence felt bored.

-,←.

Xie Shence thought back to Guan Zuomo's Ling Chi more than a month ago.

Guan Zuomo betrayed the Tiqi Division, fornicated with the Xiqin Beehive, and finally gathered the evidence after the torture of the Guan family and several of Guan Zuomo's old superiors by General Secretary Yang.

Therefore, the reformers of the Tiqi Division, led by Xie Shence and Zhou Jinmian, sent a letter to the Jin Emperor, stating the crimes committed by Guan Zuomo in recent years, and asking the Jin Emperor to grant the matter to the Tiqi Division, so that the Tiqi Division had full authority to deal with it.

The reformists were mostly young people, and they did not have a high status within the Ti Knights. These people really don't have much energy at the moment, but the potential behind them and in the future is something that Ti Qisi and even Emperor Jin have to be cautious about. Therefore, the joint letter proposed by Zhou Jinmian and led by Xie Shence was finally agreed by Emperor Jin after weighing it again and again.

So Ti Qisi began to publicly interrogate Guan Zuo Mo.

On that morning, the flower hall of the Ti Cavalry Division was full of people, and in the open space in the middle, three bloodstained men knelt. The three men looked hollow, trembled slightly, and said nothing, like the living dead.

There was a lot of discussion in the flower hall, like 10,000 flies buzzing around.

At this time, Xie Shence had not yet arrived, only Zhou Jinmian was alone looking at the people in the flower hall and whispering, and the black armor guard stood by the pillars on both sides of the flower hall, standing with both hands on the knife, like a sculpture.

At this time, the people in the flower hall are roughly divided into three parts. As for the public trial of Guan Zuo Mo, some of them were the opposition represented by the old men, some were the radicals represented by the reformists, and some were people who were in a dilemma with mixed feelings.

Several old men with crutches are the former members of the Tiqi Division who have retired to the Jindu for the elderly, and most of the people around them at this time are the successors they have taught by themselves, and this part stands on the left side of the flower hall, some are arrogant, some are angry, and some are indifferent.

On the side of the radicals, it is the most passionate and ferocious. Those caught between the two factions were silent.

The corner of Zhou Jinmian's eyes kept looking at the people on the left, and he saw several familiar people.

That's Zhou Lao, that's Xing Lao, oh, that one-armed old man, it's my father's old friend, and these people, are they all on the side of the opposition?

Zhou Jinmian narrowed his eyes slightly.

Xie Shence, who was in a black admiral's suit, walked from the gate of the flower hall to the admiral's seat accompanied by General Secretary Yang.

Xie Shence had actually been here for a while, he occupied behind everyone for a while, listened to everyone's conversation for a while, and then was discovered by the Tiqi standing at the back, and then saluted, and after the flower hall divided a way, after passing the three kneeling people, Xie Shence walked to the seat and sat down. When Xie Shence walked through the flower hall, all kinds of talking were quiet, and when Xie Shence sat down, the flower hall was quiet, and the needle drop could be heard.

After Xie Shence sat down, he glanced at the people in the flower hall: "You came early. ”

No one answered, several old men snorted coldly with crutches, and someone whispered: "Pretend." ”

The voice of this statement is extremely low, and it is difficult to hear it clearly even if it is very close in the past, but at this time, there is silence in the flower hall, and Xie Shence's previous words can be faintly heard in the wide flower hall.

The radical reformists turned their heads and glared angrily.

When he turned around, the black mandarin duck suit made a unison swishing sound.

Several old men of the opposition glanced at each other disdainfully, and continued to bow their eyebrows and remain silent.

Xie Shence looked at the young man who spoke, and the young man looked at each other fearlessly, and raised his chin defiantly.

Xie Shence was not yet seventeen years old at this time, but he had grown a lot taller this year, and he was already an adult in terms of body shape, and after many battles, coupled with his upbringing and more than 20 years of life experience, he naturally had the momentum of a superior person.

It is not abyss, it is not overwhelming, it is ruthless in its fierceness, and it faintly flashes with a murderous light.

After all, young people are still educated by their families and have not experienced strong winds and waves, and they cannot confront people like Xie Shence who have experienced the horrors of life and death. In the end, he was defeated.

Xie Shence shook his head a little boredly.

It's the same feeling as when Bloody Hand saw himself kneeling. Using one's own advantages to abuse and kill the other party's weakness really can't make people feel much pleasure.

Xie Shence said: "Today, I invite you to come to the flower hall, so you should know what is going on." This is a serious matter, so Admiral Ben doesn't want to see some bad people say bad things, and Admiral Ben doesn't want to use any bad means to do bad things. ”

"Let's get started." Xie Shence said lightly.

The clerk began to take notes, and then the envoy began to read Guan Zuomo's guilt.

"Guan Zuomo betrayed the Tiqi Division and betrayed him, with nearly two hundred dead and wounded"

When the Ti Cavalry envoy finished reading, the flower hall became quieter, and everyone's breathing became heavier.

For the crime of treachery, especially the crime of treachery among spies, there is only one trial, and that is to kill without mercy.

Even if you have repented and made meritorious contributions, but your merits are not low, your family may be able to avoid death, but you yourself will inevitably end up with death.

This is also the reason why when Tiqi and even the beehive and fish pond choose spies, they try to choose people with families. If you have a family, you will have to care, if you have care, you will have to control, and if you have good control, you will not rebel.

But Guan Zuomo's case is obviously not in this case.

At this time, the three people kneeling in the flower hall were Guan Zuomo's son, two were his original superiors, and the other was the son of his deceased superiors.

Judging from the almost identical state of the three people, it is obvious that they have been stimulated by poison, and moreover, they have been severely punished.

An old man slammed his cane in his hand and sneered, "Nonsense. ”

Xie Shence rubbed the jade belt around his waist, his eyes drooped, the corners of his mouth curled up a lonely, and said, "Why did the old man say this." ”

A young man said loudly: "Lord Admiral said that Commander Guan betrayed my Tiqi Division, dare to ask what evidence there is?" ”

Xie Shence tilted his head, stretched out a finger and swiped it, and a clerk behind Zhou Jinmian took down a stack of files and gave it to the old man.

The old man looked at it, and passed the stack of files behind him for the others to see.

"Lord Admiral, dare to ask where Guan Gongzi is, and where are the few people who identified Guan's commanders?"

From time to time, people who had read the file also said loudly: "That is, where are the witnesses mentioned by the Admirals?" I'm going to confront you in front of you! ”

Xie Shence pointed to the three kneeling people in the flower hall and said, "It's right in front of you." ”

"What?"

"Thank you! Don't you dare! ”

"Jiang Lao! Wu Gongzi? Or Qi Gongzi? ”

"Thank you! How dare you lynch! I'm going to go to Your Majesty and I'll take a heavy look at you! ”

"Boy! You dare to look at the king's law! Really, when I'm waiting for the old man, it's an ornament! ”

“”

Xie Shence listened expressionlessly to the loud rebuke and scolding of the opposition below.

In the end, it is an educated and high-quality talent, and in such a situation, he will not scold his mother, which is like those who later, whenever there is something wrong, he will verbally greet the whole family and immediate family

Someone stepped forward and brushed away the messy hair on the heads of the three people, and after carefully examining it, they shouted: "Sure enough, it's Jiang Lao and Brother Guan Shi!" ”

"And what about the other one? Who is it? ”

"It's Qi Gongzi!"

"Thank you! You've tortured them like this! You, you! Hello so bold! ”

"Thank you! Are you going to be the enemy of all the old men of the Ti Knights? ”

“”

After the people below finished speaking, Xie Shence stood up, and the opposition people all looked at Xie Shence with anger in their eyes.

"I think you've gotten something wrong."

Xie Shence's cold voice echoed in the flower hall.

"First, Guan Zuomo is a traitor, and His Majesty has already allowed me to be tried by the Cavalry Division, so if you have anything to say, it is best to go through a procedure."

"Second, these people are Qin criminals, and the Tiqi has the right to use some means before they can spit out the truth."

"Third, the name of Admiral Ben is not something you can call directly."

"Also, what you are talking about being the enemy of all the old men of the Tikhals is the biggest joke this Admiral has heard this year. You can't represent all the old people in Tiqisi, you can only represent yourself and your family, as well as the Guandang. ”

"Finally, before you see people clearly, how did you know that there was this old man and his surname Qi?"

The radicals burst into laughter. Their positions, status, and experience cannot be compared with the old people over there, so Zhou Jinmian asked them to listen and see more at the beginning, but be cautious. The crowd of the opposition was agitated before, why weren't they? It's just suppressed by life. At this time, Xie Shence set the main tone of this public trial in a few words, and returned a trick by the way, which made their group of young people very excited.

An old man came out pacing and said, "Lord Admiral, don't worry about the children, the old man is here to apologize to Lord Admiral." ”

After the old man finished speaking, he clenched his fists and bowed.

This move naturally made the group of people behind him dissatisfied, but since it was Xing Lao who spoke out, no one dared to object.

Xie Shence saw the old man saluting solemnly, so he sat on the seat and bowed his hand back.

Generally, if you return the courtesy, you should stand up, and if you are not at the worst, you should stand up and bend down, but Xie Shence didn't thank him, this arrogant attitude made there be a commotion below.

"Dare to ask the Admiral, how did you get the evidence you brought here?"

"Naturally, it was interrogated."

Xing Lao looked at the three kneeling people and asked, "Kanto, is it true that you recorded a confession?" ”

Kanto is the son of Guan Zuomo, who knelt on the ground at this time and didn't say a word.

"Kanto, the old man is asking you! Hurry up and answer! ”

Kanto still didn't make a sound.

Xing Lao asked three times in a row, but Kanto didn't answer. Then someone asked Jiang Lao and Gongzi surnamed Qi again, but they didn't hear an answer. Old Xing's brows furrowed.

"No need to ask, they're deaf and dumb."

Xie Shence gave an answer to a group of people in the opposition.

"You! How dare you?"

"Old man, I advise you to go back."

Xie Shence said lightly.

"It's useless for you to make trouble here, some of you may think that Guan Zuomo was wronged, after all, he said that he would never agree to the reorganization before he was persecuted, and today's public trial is just for this Admiral to kill people, so you rushed here and expressed hostility to Admiral."

"I understand your feelings. The disciple I fancied, the elder I liked, and the very good brother, was suddenly said to be a traitor, which no one could accept. But do you all think so? I don't think so. ”

"It's been more than a month since Guan Zuomo's family was arrested, and I believe you have known about it for a long time, and most of you should not have known the news that Guan Zuomo was a traitor before this. I also know that in the past month or so, you have carried out a lot of activities, trying to get in touch with the imprisoned Guan family and some other people, and even someone has sent people out of Beijing to find Guan Zuomo's subordinates, so as to obtain information, and then guess the reason why Admiral Ben arrested him. Of course, there are also people who come directly to the Tiqi Division to make trouble, and there are also people who go directly to His Majesty to cry, saying that the Admiral has abused his power and exceeded his authority."

"Some of you think that Admiral Ben is using Guanzuo Mo Liwei, some of you think that Admiral Ben is for reshuffling, and of course some of you don't think so. The reason why I don't think so is very simple, it's nothing more than that you are Guan Zuomo's comrades. ”

I know that there are mountains and factions in the Tiars, so even if there is a reshuffle, you take it for granted that your position should be respected, so you think that many of the Admiral's plans are unreasonable, even wrong, because they hurt your interests. ”

"Don't rush to deny." Xie Shence saw that someone below wanted to speak, so he interrupted him with a wave of his hand. "What is the number one priority of the Ti Cavalry? You might answer me? ”

Xie Shence looked at the people who wanted to retort just now.

Those people didn't know why Xie Shence asked this for a while.

Isn't that what everyone should know?

Someone opens his mouth to say it.

However, Xie Shence didn't give them a chance, and only looked at the person on the right after a short interval: "Do you know? ”

"All for the Great Jin! All for Your Majesty! ”
