Chapter I: Extorting Confessions by Torture

Ximen Qing gave an order, and the Liangshan soldiers rushed up, like a soap carving grabbing Ziyan, a tiger eating a lamb, and pressing the Song Dynasty ministers to the ground.

Qin Zong was shocked: "Uncle Huang, what does this mean?" ”

Ximen Qing said with a smile: "Your father has been raising adultery for the country for decades, and today I am a hoe rapist, you can sit and watch quietly, only then can you know that the principles of heaven are clear, and it is also the way of the king." ”

Qin Zong argued: "The emperor's personal letter of state is still there, if you regret it, it will hurt the emperor's reputation, and I hope the emperor will think twice!" ”

Ximen Qing daxiao said: "Where is the national letter?" Read with me and listen! ”

Qin Zong hurriedly took out the Ximen Qing Mobao he was carrying, unfolded it and said, "...... 2. Except for Song Chen, all the transgressions of Emperor Hui and Emperor Qin will be forgiven without asking...... "When he read this, Qinzong suddenly shook his heart, and he couldn't read it anymore for a while.

Ximen Qing said leisurely: "You see, I have made it clear that except for these traitors of the Song Dynasty, I have forgiven all the mistakes made by your father and son, and I have no repentance." ”

Qin Zong's face turned red, and he argued: "Except for all the transgressions of the Song Dynasty, Hui, and Qin Emperors, doesn't it mean that the monarchs and ministers are exempted from crimes?" O Emperor Bo Kai Eng! ”

Ximenqing raised his hand and said, "This is your misunderstanding, you have to blame me." If you don't surrender, I won't do it; Now that you have surrendered, you naturally have to listen to my fate as promised in the text! ”

Qinzong cried and sat down, and said nothing more.

What else could he say? The defeated who do not have the strength simply do not have the right to point fingers in front of the victors! knew that Ximen Qing was playing word games, but he could only swallow it with his teeth.

Ximenqing smiled and said, "Don't worry, as far as I know, there are still a few of these people your father uses who are more honest, so you don't need to be too frustrated." Who is Houmeng? ”

Hou Meng agreed, and Ximen Qing ordered someone to help him up and invite him to take a seat. Hou Meng was furious, just waiting for the attack, where would he sit? Ximenqing blocked him back with only one sentence: "Your lord is here, what do you want?" Hou Meng looked at Ximenqing, then at Qinzong, let out a long breath, and sat down.

Simon Qing ordered the people to take the list for roll call, and all the responders were put into their seats. Fortunately, the list is not long, only more than 20 names are read, and the list is over.

Ximenqing sighed, a huge court, hundreds of officials, only more than 20 people can be called incorruptible, this court, it can be imagined.

Looking down, the traitorous ministers led by Cai You, Liang Shicheng, Yang Jian, and Wang Hao are all delicate and noble, and they have never suffered since they took the throne, and now they are being treated by Liang Shan, where can they endure it? has long been humming, moaning and wailing, and everyone is ugly.

Ximen Qing sneered and said to Qin Zonghe and Song Chen, who was sitting: "I promise to withdraw from Tokyo City in five days, I should do this, and you monarchs and ministers can rest assured." ”

Qinzong and the others breathed a sigh of relief, and Ximen Qing smiled again: "However, I want to judge these traitors, although five days is not enough, but there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, hehe, let's take our time!" ”

Listening to Ximen Qing laughing mysteriously, there seems to be something hidden in it, Qin Zong tried to touch it under the wisdom of eating a trench, but unfortunately he wanted to break his head, and he couldn't think of the mystery.

When he was bothering, Ximenqing had already instructed: "Send someone to copy the homes of these traitorous ministers, reunite their families together, and when they go on the road in the future, everyone will also be more lively." ”

Hearing this, all those who were pressed down changed color. There are those who cry, there are those who plead, there are those who buy lives, and there are those who scold, and for a time it was noisy.

Ximenqing sneered: "Except for vegetable oil, give it to me!" The Liangshan soldiers took these officials away like an eagle catching chickens, and only threw Cai You away, and the shijie in front of the tent was suddenly clean.

Ximen Qing stretched out his voice, learning the same as a corrupt official asking a case in the film and television - no way, a Qing official can also act as a corrupt official - and said to Cai You: "Are you Cai Jing's son of vegetable oil?" ”

Cai You gritted his teeth and didn't answer, and Ximen Qing smiled and said, "Cook the skin for Master Cai." ”

A mellow fragrance wafted by, and a pot of boiling vegetable oil had been served underneath, threatening to pour it on Cai You. The gentleman didn't suffer the immediate loss, Cai You immediately decided to be a gentleman, so he shouted loudly: "It's Cai You below, please ask if you have something to say!" ”

Ximenqing sighed: "Why bother! He waved his hand to stop the vegetable oil that was about to fly down 3,000 feet, and then asked, "Vegetable oil!" I have written an account of the iniquities of your fathers and sons here and in the hearts of the common people, so there is no need to say more. I only want to ask you one thing - you named it vegetable oil, and as a result, the people of the world did not have vegetable oil to eat, such a big crime, do you dare to deny it? ”

Cai You listened, unbelievable, and Qin Zong and the others in the auditorium were all stunned. Cai You, like his father Cai Jing, is a huge greed, and asked him about the details of corruption, which is right, why did he make fun of his name?

"Sure enough, it's a grass coward!" The monarchs and ministers of Qinzong all sighed in their hearts. As soon as he thought that he would lose in the hands of this grass coward, Qin Zong felt that the bottom of his chest was overturned.

Cai You was also stunned, and he didn't know what to say for a while. Ximenqing couldn't wait, and his face sank: "Xiao*, dare to despise this official?" Ask you for a long time, don't you pay attention to it, isn't it the same as losing up and down? Someone! Pick me the number one stick, and beat this short-eyed minion forty times! ”

The Liangshan soldier next to him agreed, lifted the military stick and pounced, and he didn't have the interest to pick up the old man's pants, so he directly picked up the stick and got on. Cai Jing's father and son, the people hated it, so these two people who were punished doubled their strength, and they went down with forty sticks, Cai You was beaten to death, and he woke up and woke up several times. He was born pampered, clothed and fed, and the biggest stick he ever suffered was the hand board when he couldn't recite a book when he was a child, where did he suffer such a big hardship?

After forty sticks, Cai You, who finally woke up, felt that his two legs were about to be knocked out, and Cai Junzi immediately decided that he would say whatever Ximenqing asked, because it was not too late for the gentleman to take revenge.

I heard Ximenqing ask: "Vegetable oil, is there a grievance for this official to beat you?" ”

Cai Yousha said in a hoarse voice: "Go back to the Qingtian master, fight unyieldingly!" ”

Ximen Qing said to Pei Xuan, the iron-faced face next to him, Xiao Rang, the holy hand scholar, Bao Xu, the god of mourning, and others: "You see, corrupt officials are like such cheap bones, how can they be convinced if they don't fight?" ”

Everyone laughed and laughed: "My lord is right." ”

Ximenqing was too addicted to officials, so he said to Cai You: "Vegetable oil, since you know that Lord Ben is not wronged in beating you, why don't you bring me the crime of committing murder under a false name and persecuting the people of the world without vegetable oil to eat?" ”

If you change someone else, you will have to get stuck again, and you will have to eat forty sticks. But who is Cai You? He is the son of Cai Jing, he is knowledgeable, and he is also an article leader in the world.

So, Cai You followed Ximenqing's words and made up a legend of vegetable oil, saying how he borrowed the evil art of Taoism to make a name for Cai You, and then used this name to take all the vegetable oil of the people in the world, so that the people of the world had no vegetable oil to eat, so they had to become rats to steal lamp oil...... Its absurdity and eccentricity, unique and unique, with another merit, Ximenqing heard it and applauded, saying in his heart that if this person was born in the 22nd century, he would not need to be corrupt, and he could become a great god by writing online articles.

Finally, the story was finished, and Cai You only had the breath left, and there was no breath to enterβ€”the forty sticks were really unbearable. Ximenqing instructed: "Drag this vegetable oil down, hand it over to the Shen Shen doctor, and don't let him die before getting into the oil pot!" ”

Liang Shan's pawn agreed and helped Cai You go.

Ximen Qing changed his face at this time, and said to Pei Xuanzhu: "This is torture to extract confessions, under Miki, why can't you ask for it?" Even vegetable oil can become a legend, so do you need to say anything else? How can a legislator be careless? ”

Although Pei Xuan nodded, he was puzzled: "The public will, do you want to abolish torture to extract confessions?" If this law is abolished, I am afraid that the criminals in the world will have nothing to fear from now on, and the country will have no peace! ”

Ximen Qing said: "My shallow view - the way to govern the country, not to punish severely, but to really enforce the law." Therefore, legislation must be kept secret, so that the people will know everything and urge them not to dare to commit crimes; The law enforcement must be peaceful, and the Son of Heaven will be guilty of the same crime as the common people, so that the rule of law can be achieved without relying on torture to extract confessions. ”

Pei Xuan lowered his head and thought deeply, his brows furrowed, and finally said: "Gong's words, I am still difficult to understand at the moment, and I will think about it quietly, so as to make the new national code perfect, and live up to the hopes of all the people!" ”

Ximenqing nodded and said: "Actually, torture to extract confessions can also be kept, but they need to be classified." It can be used for officials, but not for the people. Officials, crimes affect the people's livelihood and national economy, and the implication is very great, if there is torture to deter confessions, it can also be chilling; If the matter of the fur is also tortured to extract confessions, it will damage the people's strength, so it is better to use torture to extract confessions to officials! ”

Pei Xuan nodded slowly and said, "Wait for me to think about it alone, and everyone will discuss it." ”

Ximen Qing said: "Good." Then he nodded and smiled at the Song Dynasty monarchs and ministers who were stunned: "Legalist, the major affairs of the country, the way of rise and fall, and the plan of prosperity and decline must not be ignored - is it easy to govern a country?" It must be learned. ”

Hearing this, Qin Zong hurriedly responded: "The emperor's advice is right. But he secretly wondered in his heart: "Could it be that these grass cowards really want to build a country and legislate?" It looks like it's still serious, but it's all about the opposite. What law should be known to the people, and will they not hear that 'if the law is unknowable, it is unfathomable'? And what do you say, 'The Son of Heaven breaks the law and sin the same crime as the common people', but he doesn't know that the sage said, 'He can't punish the doctors, and he can't pay the common people' -- this kind of vulgar people, vulgar and unliterate, and still vainly want to build a country and legislate, it really makes people laugh! ”

Just thinking of Cai You's thunderous means just now, Qin Zong secretly trembled, and his sense of superiority disappeared. Thinking of Ximenqing saying that he was going to put Cai You in the oil pot, I don't know if it's true or not? In short, Qinzong made up his mind - he must not offend the imperial uncle in front of him. This is exactly what it is:

only brings the funny to justice, and beats the power traitor with humor. But I don't know what will happen next, and listen to the next breakdown.
