Chapter 28: Zhao Yu and Zhang Tang (Ask for Collection)
Zhao Yu is very famous in Beijing, he is famous for his style of acting, the Son of Heaven often praises him as the best imperial history, the implication is nothing more than to appreciate his style, encourage the imperial historians to follow suit and take out political achievements to please the Heavenly Family, Zhidu, Ning Cheng, Zhou Yangyou and others are also promoted by similar means.
For the means of the Son of Heaven, as a daughter, Princess Yangxin is very well understood, and in the palace ban, I often hear that the Son of Heaven praises Zhidu for enforcing the law and being impartial and not afraid of power, even if he meets the world-famous Prime Minister Zhou Yafu, he can also straighten his waist and not salute, and the words are nothing more than covering for Zhidu's crime of disrespecting the Prime Minister, just like when he dug up the outer wall of the Taimiao Temple and was pardoned. 、
The same thing that invaded the outer wall of the temple was born in the king of Linjiang, but the abolished prince Liu Rong became a fall into the lieutenant's mansion, and was forced to commit suicide by the lieutenant Zhidu.
Princess Yangxin was very worried, she knew that her three sisters were tied together and not as good as the status of the crown prince Liu Che in the eyes of the Son of Heaven, if his wishful husband was really arrested and punished by the Tingwei Mansion, according to Tingwei Yan's temperament of plucking the feathers, there was no punishment of reprimand in the Han Law, as long as the one who made the least mistake was exempted from punishment for the heavier one.
Zhao Yu thought that Cao Shi was questioning his law enforcement, and sneered: "We will enforce the law impartially, and Pingyang Hou doesn't have to worry." ”
Cao Shi waved his sleeves: "No, no, no, the imperial history came in a hurry at the order of the imperial historian, presumably to do a complete countermeasure, if not, I would not have concluded in a few words that I instructed the door doctor Sun Qi to beat the Tangyi Hou Jiacheng, so may I ask the imperial history has ever asked the Dongshi order, asked the merchant who bought slaves and maids, and has he ever asked the witnesses on the street, has there been any beating of people?" ”
"No need to be reminded by Pingyang Hou, of course I asked! Dongshi Ling was not present at the time, the slave trader had already left Chang'an City, and where could the witnesses on the street be found, and asked a few nearby merchants who said they hadn't noticed, but the scars on the body of the Tangyi Hou Jiacheng were seen with my own eyes, the whole body was bruised and bruised, and there were several broken ribs, and the means were extremely vicious, I concluded that this must have been done deliberately, in order to take the life of the Tangyi Hou Jiacheng. ”
Zhao Yu's gaze was directed at the door doctor Sun Qi, a big man with a height of more than eight feet and about one meter nine stood out in the crowd like a flock, with a burly body and a big waist and a round waist, and at a glance, he knew that he was a wrestler, and his hands had calluses on his hands and weapons for a long time, and he showed a delicate swordsmanship just now, which made Sun Qi's suspicion more certain.
It was a matter of his own survival and safety, so Cao Shi couldn't help but be a little sloppy, looked at him with burning eyes and said, "Don't you think it's ridiculous? None of the witnesses on the street saw it, and the nearby businessmen were afraid of offending people and did not dare to tell the truth, the only thing that could be determined was the testimony of the dead Tangyi Hou Jiacheng and the Tangyi Hou Mansion, and the guilty verdict was made on the basis of only one side of the word, and the impartial law enforcement of the imperial history was afraid that it was not very stable, I heard that the court lieutenant Zhao Fang sat on the pre-trial prime minister Zhou Yafu, and humiliated the meritorious ministers in every way, and also said that the prime minister could not be rebelled in life, and went underground to rebel after death, which made me very worried! ”
"The case of Tiao Hou is not very clear and has nothing to do with Xia, and the mission of Xia is to determine whether Pingyang Hou is guilty or not, and then bring the Tingwei Mansion to Tingwei for interrogation, as for whether the trial is fair or not, it is up to Tingwei to decide, and it has nothing to do with Zaixia."
Princess Yangxin raised her eyebrows and sneered coldly: "Others don't know your Zhao Yu's family background, but I know that you and Zhao Fang, the captain of the court, are relatives of three generations. ”
"Four years, four years ago." Zhao Yu calmly added, but let Princess Yangxin have nothing to say, she didn't expect that this Zhao Yu oil and salt will not be soft and hard and do not eat, and if she continues to talk, she can only be far-fetched that there is collusion between him and Zhao Fang, and under the premise of lack of evidence, she will only fall into the trap and be reprimanded by the Son of Heaven.
Cao Shi stopped Princess Yangxin and nodded lightly to her to relax, and took two steps forward to face Zhao Yu and said: "Since the imperial history has a clear conscience, don't blame me for hurting people's words, for the imperial history should be impartial and not mixed with personal thoughts and opinions, I think that the imperial history is unfair, try to ask between Chang'an East City, thousands of people around the front of the crowd, I brought fifty horsemen to the front of the stage, how can I beat the Hou family of Tangyi into the street as a street murderer?" If I had really done this, one of the thousands of people on the street would have reported to the official, and the Dongshi order would have arrived in an instant, and the lieutenant of the Northern Army guarding the Hengmen would have come in a moment.
And with my fifty guards, even if everyone is like Li Guang, who is too guarded by Yanmen, he can't get out, but no one reported to the official from beginning to end that afternoon, could it be that everyone is deaf and blind, or they are afraid that I will be fierce with the guards and dare not report to the official, or the residents of Chang'an are afraid of the marquis like a tiger and dare not report to the official? But this can't explain the reason why there are many onlookers on the street, since they are afraid, why do they come to watch? For example, the pawns of the border county peddlers were afraid of the Huns, and when they saw the Huns, of course, they fled from a distance, which was very unreasonable. ”
Zhao Yu stared at Cao Shi for a long time, he didn't expect Pingyang Hou to have such careful thinking, yesterday he received an order from the Imperial History Mansion from the Imperial History Mansion, and rushed to the Tangyi Hou Mansion to check the injuries of the deceased, and visited the merchants in the East City to search around and did not get the conclusive evidence he wanted, at that time he was also a little hesitant and subconsciously thought that it was not normal, and now in retrospect, there are really many loopholes.
"What the prince said is, presumably the imperial history came in a hurry and didn't think to ask the testimony of the Hou Mansion, since you can use the words of the Tang Yi Hou Mansion to arrest my prince, why can't you ask for it under the three woods in the torture hall? How can the imperial history enforce the law impartially, which is reassuring. Fan Itguang did not forget to take the opportunity to squeeze Zhao Yu.
The servants of the Hou Mansion said yes one after another, and more than a dozen guards stood up on the spot and claimed that the guards of the day were witnesses, proving that they had not beaten the Hou Jiacheng of Tangyi at that time, and more than a dozen people told the process of the day from beginning to end, including the Hou Jiacheng of Tangyi insulting the Huns and being scared by Sun Qi, and finally the officials of the Hou family came forward to rescue people.
"Pingyang Hou's words are not to be believed, and I still want to listen to the testimony of more people." Zhao Yu was worried that someone would collude with him, so he immediately ordered Soo Li to go to the Hou Mansion, arrest more than 30 other guards who were not present, and ordered on the spot that everyone present was not allowed to leave or report the news, and he wanted to personally interrogate all the witnesses.
Cao Shi also said: "The historical materials of the servant are thoughtful, the Hun slave maid who witnessed the whole process on the spot a few days ago was placed in Nanzhuang outside the mansion, and Princess Yangxin is also very clear about this matter, their leader Gan's father can speak fluent Han language, we are all in the palace to be taken care of by the servant Yushi, just let your subordinates call that person to testify." ”
Princess Yangxin nodded to prove that this was indeed the case, Zhao Yu asked the other dozen or so soap li guarding outside the Hou Mansion to arrest all the Huns and isolate them individually, he still didn't believe that Cao Shi really cooperated with him in trying the case, and if he didn't understand the Xiongnu language, he could invite someone who was proficient in the Xiongnu language from Taichang Temple to translate, even if Cao Shi was powerful, he would never give those Hun slaves and maids who didn't understand the language to the confession, and he only needed to be afraid that the Huns would not tell the truth.
The long wait was nearly an hour and a half, until the sun gradually turned west, most of the people in the Hou Mansion accompanied the servant Yushi to stand under the sun and boil up, Zhao Yu didn't like to stand in the scorching sun at the end of the summer, he was just afraid that once he left, no one would be able to stop the two nobles of the Hou Mansion from going out, and after thinking about it, he still handed over the interrogation work to the subordinate officials of the right internal history, and these old officials have dealt with countless cases, and they have nothing to do with the princess and the marquis, so they don't have to worry.
Princess Yangxin went to the nearby pavilion to rest, the maidservants sent up the iced lotus seed soup that had been boiled for a long time, the princess drank a little and was reluctant to let her husband suffer, and the maidservant gave Cao Shi a large bowl of iced lotus seed soup to drink.
After waiting for a long time, he finally waited for the translator of Taichang Temple to ask about the testimony of the Hun slave maid, and the transcript was copied and confirmed to be correct, and handed over: "Weichen has repeatedly heard all the Huns, and after sorting out the testimony, he came to the conclusion that the guards of the Pingyang Hou Mansion did not beat anyone, only a strong man from the Hou Mansion mentioned the old man and scolded a few words and put it down, until the old man was scared and urinated out and was carried away by several people. ”
Zhao Yu kept checking the testimony book, turned to the right inner Shi Sooli on his side and asked, "Zhang Tang, just now you went to ask the guards of the Hou Mansion and got the testimony!" ”
"The testimony of the 35 people who were interrogated below, based on the subtle differences in each person's words, concluded that there was no collusion in confession, and the testimony did prove the innocence of Pingyang Hou." Zhang Tang was a young official in his twenties, holding a bamboo slip in his hands to interrogate everyone, observing the details of their words and expressions, and the changes in their eyes, so that no one lied and committed perjury, and there was no identical testimony from beginning to end.
The two people who were talking to Cao Shi looked incredible, although Zhao Yu had already made a statement at this time, but as far as Cao Shi himself was concerned, he was still relatively unfamiliar with him, Zhang Tang and he were not at all of the same nature, the cool official Zhang Tang has been famous in history for more than 2,000 years, leaving countless stories to talk about, even if his reputation is not obvious, it is enough to attract great attention.
“…… Pingyang Hou, Pingyang Hou! ”
Cao Shi came back to his senses and saw Zhao Yu looking at him with a strange face, and hurriedly covered it up: "I have never seen an interrogation, and it is the first time I know that the interrogator has such unheard of methods. ”
"Pingyang Hou praises falsely, and he is ashamed." Zhang Tang is not like Zhao Yu who always has a poker face, and when he was sure that Pingyang Hou was in danger, he immediately made a warm salute, and praised Pingyang Hou for his outstanding wisdom in just a few words.
Zhao Yu bowed down and put on a signature poker face: "I will plead guilty for Fang Cai's gaffe, Pingyang Hou is innocent and framed by wicked people, I will definitely investigate it in person, no matter how much obstruction there is, I will not let it go, please rest assured that Princess Yangxin and Pingyang Hou are leaving." ”
ps: Shi Zai Zhang Tang is a small official of the inner history county at this time, as for why it is in the right internal history, because the Han Dynasty respects the right, the internal history is divided into left and right, and the right is also on the top, by the way, ask for a collection, thank you for your support!
