Chapter 329: Anti-Thief Grievance (I)
Hearing that the Jinyi Wei who had expeditioned to the southwest had returned to the dynasty in victory, the city of Beijing was boiling.
Although many ordinary people have never been to Guizhou in their lives, they are still so excited to hear that the Ming army has wiped out all the rebels and regained Guizhou, and some even take out the firecrackers prepared for the New Year and set them off.
Although the government announced that Jinyiwei would enter the city at noon, the people still gathered near Desheng Gate early in the morning, not for anything else, just to occupy a good position and take a good look at the good sons and daughters of the Ming Dynasty.
At noon, Jinyiwei arrived at the door of Desheng.
The people who were about to cheer were stunned all at once, and it turned out that the brocade guards who appeared in front of the people were all wearing strange clothes, and they exposed their hands and feet outside their clothes, which looked very cool.
Although the Jinyi Wei is dressed in strange clothes, the people don't think that they are ethnic minority soldiers from anywhere, because although these clothes are peculiar, they have a strong Han style, as if the Ming Dynasty originally had such a set of clothes.
When many people dressed up to greet Jinyiwei saw this set of clothes, they felt that the sun in the sky seemed to be more poisonous, and they were sweating like pulp, and they really wanted to buy such a cool set of clothes immediately.
The women carefully observed the way the clothes were cut, and prepared to go home and tear a few feet of cloth and make a few sets of clothes in this way.
Looking at it, they couldn't help but feel a little resentful, why are all Jinyiwei men, so they can only see men's clothes, what should they do with women's clothes?
You know, men are afraid of heat, and women are also afraid of heat.
It was as if I had guessed the minds of the women, and a woman finally appeared in the procession that entered the city. They were the medics, in the middle of the procession into the city, dressed in women's summer clothes.
The women's eyes were straight, and it turned out that women's clothing could do this.
By the way, the women of the Ming Dynasty were actually quite open. A woman who can accept a summer dress with exposed arms and legs and a feudal and decadent mite Qing, who dares to wear this kind of clothes, must be immersed in a pig cage.
When the last brocade guard entered the city, the people woke up from a dream and cheered loudly.
Shin is a pessimist. Seeing the people staring at the Jinyi Guard silently watching into the city, worried that something was wrong, he took a few steps closely, caught up with Zhu Youcheng, and asked in a low voice: "Brother Cheng, what's the matter, why did the people all become dumb when they saw us?" Am I doing something wrong? ”
Zhu Youcheng smiled and pointed to King Xin and his own clothes, and said, "The people were shocked by our wonderful clothes, where have they ever seen such cool and graceful clothes?" ”
King Shin carefully looked at the onlookers. found that their faces were really full of envy, and they couldn't help but be proud.
The Jinyiwei's destination is the Daming Gate, where they will be inspected by the Emperor.
The front of the Daming Gate was already heavily guarded, and the onlookers were stopped on both sides of the street by heavily armed soldiers.
Zhu Youcheng and King Xin saw a young man in a yellow robe standing there waiting on the city tower, and couldn't help but smile, it was the Emperor of the Apocalypse, the elder brother of the two of them.
The two of them were far away from the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and they couldn't see the emperor's expression clearly. But I guess I guess I'll smile heartily.
At this moment, a woman suddenly stumbled out of the crowd. Kneeling down facing the Daming Gate, holding a piece of paper in his hand, with red characters on it, it seemed to be a blood book.
She said loudly: "Zhu Youcheng, a thief, is a wolf with ambition and is cruel and tyrannical. Destroy the eighteen clans of my family. An Ping, the orphan daughter of the An family, went to Beijing to sue the royal court in tears! ”
After a short period of stunned, Zhu Youcheng realized that this was the first wave of attacks.
Guizhou is far away from Beijing, a weak woman, penniless. How can I come to Jingshi to sue the emperor?
If this woman is not in Guizhou, but in Beijing, then how did she get the news that An Jia was exterminated by the Eighteen Clans? Although Zhu Youcheng did not deliberately conceal this matter, due to the limitations of the times and the underdeveloped communication, it was many years before this matter spread throughout the Ming Dynasty.
The only thing that knew about this matter was to be able to contact the officials of the Zhang, because Zhu Youcheng once wrote the process of dealing with the An family into a Song Zhang, and reported it to the Emperor of the Apocalypse.
Also, there are so many soldiers guarding in front of the Daming Gate, how can a weak woman break through the blockade and come to the center of the street?
Although Xiong Tingbi's daughter Xiong Hu stopped back on the street to save her father before, after all, it was a parade of champions and officials, and the emperor did not participate, and the defense was not too tight, so it could not be the same as the current situation.
Behind this incident, there is one or a group of people with eyes and hands, only they can know the battle situation and intelligence in Guizhou, and only they can buy the soldiers who defend it.
Zhu Youcheng turned his head and glanced at King Xin, which means that your indiscriminate personality has caused me trouble.
King Xin didn't dare to make eye contact with Zhu Youcheng at all, and turned his head to look elsewhere.
After a while, he seemed to notice that Zhu Youcheng was still staring at him, and he whistled softly.
Zhu Youcheng looked at the back of his head, a little crying and laughing: This king of letters, as soon as he encounters a problem, he will be an ostrich, do you think this kind of thing can be avoided? Let's come forward on our own, who let myself admit the younger brother of the king?
Zhu Youcheng urged the horse forward, came to the front of the team, and pointed at the woman with a horse whip: "Oh, the kneeling woman, but is it from An Bangyan's family?" ”
The woman raised her head and said, "The slave family is not from the An Bangyan family. ”
Zhu Youcheng sneered: "If you are not a person from the An family, why do you want to complain about the An family?" Hey, I also wrote a blood book, it's really a book. ”
"Although the slave family is not from the An Bangyan family, it is the person from the An family. The slave family is the great-granddaughter of An Yi. ”
Zhu Youcheng has read the ancestral genealogy of the An family and knows that An Yi is An Bangyan's great-uncle, and An Bangyan's great-grandfather is a brother, and the nine clans can't kill him, but the eighteen clans can catch up.
"It turned out to be a rebel clansman, left and right, tied her up, and after careful interrogation, she was punished again!"
"Zhu Youcheng, you murderous thief! Don't forget, people are doing it, the sky is watching, you will have retribution! The woman shouted hoarsely.
"Wait!" An official dressed in a seven-rank civilian official came panting.
He is the current Henan Provincial Imperial Shi Hao Tu Plaster. By the way, because the Donglin Party collapsed ahead of schedule, Hao Tujiao did not climb into the household branch that he once served in history - alas, this is another sin created by Zhu Youcheng.
"What do you have to do with Lord Hao?"
"This woman sued you, you are not an official of Dali Temple, how can you take the plaintiff away?"
All the officials accompanied the emperor to stand on the tower of Daming Gate, who had time to take care of this woman.
Now those who come to inquire about this matter are either old-fashioned people who don't know the current affairs, or they are villains who harbor evil intentions.
Looking at Hao Tujiao's talent, he is shrewd and capable, and he should belong to the latter.
Zhu Youcheng's tone was very polite: "You seem to have forgotten a little, I am the commander of Jinyiwei, and I have the power to review major criminals such as conspiracy and rebellion and separatism." If Lord Hao doesn't believe it, you can give it a try. ”
What to try, try to rebel? In front of the emperor and hundreds of officials on the city tower, plus more than 10,000 brocade guards in front of him, saying that I want to rebel, isn't that looking for death?
Hao Tuxuan laughed and said, "Lord Zhu, it's a joke." The lower officials are loyal and patriotic, how can they do such disloyal and unrighteous things? However, the "Da Ming Law" has a recusal system. If this woman sues you, you should recuse yourself and ask Dali Temple to clarify the matter, so as not to affect the reputation of the adult. ”
"You're wrong again." Zhu Youcheng sneered, "It is a military order to kill the eighteen clans of the An Bangyan family, not a public security decision. Before this military order was lifted, Ben Jiang, as the main executor of the southwest counterinsurgency, could not let go of any of the rebels. And according to you, we can't fight at all. Because which thief who was killed didn't say that I, Zhu, was cruel and easy to kill? ”
Hao Tu was speechless, and said in his heart, this Zhu Youcheng was oily and slippery, and he couldn't catch him no matter how he caught him. Talk to him about the lawsuit, and he tells you about the edict (Jinyiwei's prison); Talk to him about the law, and he will tell you about military orders.
It's strange, how did such a slippery person become a brocade guard? And he's a brocade guard who can fight.
A thought crossed Hao Tuji's heart, this is probably the purpose of Emperor Taizu Gao's establishment of Jinyiwei, using the military system and edicts to make Jinyiwei a special existence independent of the judicial system.
Emperor Gao is indeed Gao.
However, Zhu Youcheng is really wicked, he actually knows the mind of Emperor Taizu Gao, and more than two hundred years later, he used the judicial and military power of Jinyiwei just right.
By the time the two of them had spoken to each other, the guards had already arrested the woman and smashed her in handcuffs and shackles.
These things were ready-made, and they were originally prepared for the anti-thief leaders Lu Chongming and An Bangyan, but the two had already sent them to Zhu Xieyuan, the governor of the four provinces, and the handcuffs and shackles were given to this woman to accept. (To be continued......)
