Chapter Thirty-Four: The Souls of the Ages Are Here Today

Lu Xiangxian, the secretary of the Criminal Department, is the son of Lu Yuanfang, the servant of the door. Born in Wu County, Lu Taiweizhi, his real name is Lu Jingchu, and he was later given the name "Xiangxian" by the first emperor. The first emperor once said: "Zi Neng Shao first constructed, is like a sage." It means that since Lu Xiangxian can inherit the achievements of his predecessors, he hopes to imitate the virtues of his ancestors.

In his early years, he successively served as a member of the army in Yangzhou, a lieutenant of Luoyang County, a supervisor of the imperial history, a palace attendant, and a secretary of the Chinese book, and served as a political affairs hall under the recommendation of Princess Taiping. But he never refused to cling to Princess Taiping and refused to participate in the conspiracy. When he was born for the saint, he was congenital, and later, because of his merit, he entered the Yanguo Gong, and became the governor of Yizhou and Jiannan Dao. In the first year of Kaiyuan, he was recalled by the sage to the central government, moved to the secretary of the criminal department, and planned to be the assassin of Puzhou.

Lu Xiang Xianshang of the Criminal Department received the grace of the sage, converged with the Yushitai of Dali Temple, and the three divisions will try the case of the Far East Tianxing, and set up a case office in the Hanyuan Palace.

The chief officer of the three divisions sat twenty steps in front of the jade steps facing the sage leaning on the case, and Lu Shangshu and Wei Kang, the left-handed Dali Temple, and the right-hand imperial historian Yu Wenrong bowed their hands and humbly gave in, and patted the hall in shock

"In front, is the heir of the king of Liaoyang County, Dugu Xinci?"

"Exactly," Dugu Xinci got up and gave up his hand, and Dugu Zhen and Wen Wei also got up and stood on the side.

"You were once known as the Dugu Heavenly Star?" Lu Xiangxian Shangshu then asked.

"Yes, Shenlong has been named Dugu Tianxing on the spectrum ten years ago, and in February of the first year of Kaiyuan, he moved to Chang'an, Gyeonggi Province, Qinrenfang, and was given the name Dugu Xinci by his father, the king of Liaoyang County, and the word Tianxing"

"Today, there is Jinshi Liu Ziqing, in the imperial history, Tang Xiulong impeached you for the ten major crimes, and you can plead guilty?"

"There is a matter that is unclear, the matter of impeachment, is the right of the imperial history, in order to picket illegal and dereliction of duty officials, now the impeachment of the sparse Jinshi Liu Ziqing, can there be a royal history of the division? A certain person is now a white coat, even if Meng Enke is admitted to the first jinshi, there is no official to tell him, is it appropriate to use the word impeachment? Dugu Xinci began to fight back.

"You must not quibble, this is a small section, you are a murderer in the world, everyone will be punished" Liu Ziqing retorted sharply.

"Liu Langjun is a member of the three divisions? Can I get permission from the presiding judge to speak? Dugu Xinci sneered.

"You, this murderer" Liu Ziqing was furious.

"Don't make noise" Lu Xiang patted the hall first, and the hall was quiet.

"The matter of punishment and reward, the great plan of the country, there is no room for negligence, well, the word impeachment is indeed inappropriate, and it is now changed to accusation," Lu Xiang first discussed with Wei Kangyu Wenrong and the three of them, "Dugu Xinci, now there is Jinshi Liu Ziqing, and Tang Xiulong in the imperial history accuses you of the ten major crimes, and you can plead guilty?" ”

"The great priest is wise," Dugu smiled kindly, "a certain innocence"

"Boom" There was a lot of noise in the Hanyuan Palace, and more than 300 Zhu Zichen workers began to make noise.

"The facts are there, the evidence is conclusive, and there is no room for you to quibble," His Royal Highness King Wu also shouted angrily.

"Quiet" Lu Xiang first slapped three times in a row.

"What do you have to say?" Lu Xiang first asked Dugu Xinci.

"At least if you don't learn and don't know how to do this, you won't recognize it?" Dugu Xinci smiled and said, "A certain student has studied under the Chinese Normal School since childhood, and is now the third on the first list of the Yan and Tang Dynasty systems, if this is also called not learning and not knowing, then how many people in the world dare to call the word talent?" ”

Everyone was speechless, three hundred out of ten thousand, three hundred lines third, if this is called no learning and no skill, then no one in Datang is embarrassed to claim to be talented.

"Three chief judges, there is one more thing, I need to remind you, a certain is a certified warlock of the Imperial Warlock Association, according to the "Tang Law Discussion", the interrogator of Yan Tang Yousi needs to submit it to the Warlock Association for review first, if there is no written or personnel present of the director of the Warlock Association, you can refuse to accept the interrogation" Dugu Xinci made another big move.

There was a buzz in the Hanyuan Hall again.

"Thou hast been damned, and now thou hast the power to cast spells? An ordinary person who can't cast spells dares to call a magician? Dugu Grand Sorcerer? His Royal Highness King Wu laughed wildly, and the four princes were a little out of shape today.

"Who says you can't be certified as a sorcerer if you can't cast a spell?" A cold voice sounded, and a straight figure walked into the Hanyuan Palace, it was Wei Yixiao, the president of the Warlock Association with a dark face.

"Master Wei has always been good?" The saint also got up and asked, this is the pillar of the country.

"Loved by the saints, I have always been fine," Wei Yi smiled, and the master bowed.

"I am tired of Wei Yixiao, the great magician himself, there is a reason for it, forgive the sins and forgive the sins" Lu Shangshu did not dare to snub the president of the Warlock Association.

"A certain person is also a subject of the Tang Dynasty, and it is the responsibility of a certain person to correct the traitor of the country" Wei Yixiao said with a cold face, "Dugu magician, you are now accused of ten major crimes, and you need to be interrogated by Yousi, I hope you can answer truthfully, if you are innocent, the saint and Yousi will clear your guilt, if your guilt is established, after being sentenced by the law, the Warlock Association will also hold you accountable, and you can do it yourself"

"Obey the words of the great magician" Dugu Xinci arched his hands, but his hands were tied by himself, and he was naked and clothed in a white robe, which was indescribably strange and... Dreariness.

Wei smiled and sighed, and stepped forward to untie him, "Before Yousi is convicted, you are still a sorcerer of the Warlock Association, and the sorcerer needs to be dignified"

Dugu Xin bowed down and bowed, Wei Yixiao stepped aside, and the saint gave him a seat.

"Dugu Xinci, now I have invited Master Wei Yixiao to come, you are willing to accept the interrogation" Lu Xiang first took a picture of the shocking wood.

"I am willing to be interrogated," Dugu Xinci said in a clear voice.

"Is it true that you have been appointed as the Governor of the Temple Street of the Black Sea Governor's Mansion in Hebei Province?"

"True"

"You are the commander of the capital, but Anton is the protector of Duguzhen, and he is privately given?"

"Definitely"

"You are less than fifteen years old when you are the commander of the Zhichong Commander, and Huangkou Xiaoer is the border general of the important town, if there is no selfishness, how can this be reasonable?" In the imperial history, Tang Xiulong came out to question.

"A certain book is in white clothes, and he suddenly moved to the captain, and he is also confused, and I hope that there is a division to solve his doubts?" Dugu Xinci never plays cards according to common sense.

"What's the doubt? It must have been Duguzhen, who was the protector of Anton at the time, and he was privately taught by Tang Xiulong.

"Does Tang Zhongcheng have any evidence? Is it the duty of the imperial historian to make false accusations? Dugu retorted.

"You..." Tang Xiulong pointed to Dugu Xinci and was furious, "I want to kill you, this murderer"

"Quiet" Lu Xiang first wrote the book and then shot the shocking wood.

"Whether it is true, check the relevant documents to confirm it" Yuwen Rong shouted, "Above the court, please pay attention to etiquette in Tang Zhongcheng"

"The secretary is on duty and the secretary is here," Wei Kang, the secretary of Dali Temple, asked his subordinates to bring a few documents.

Lu Xiang took it first and took a look, "It's the official scroll"

"Please carefully check the guarantor and the date of the assignment," Dugu Xinci was not in a hurry.

"Well, the guarantor is Anton Dadu Xu Xuanzhi, the date is October of the sixth year of Shenlong, and the Far Eastern Heishui people are hereby awarded Dugu Tianxing as the captain of Hailan Bubble Chong Fuzhong Mansion Zhichong, a loose guerrilla general, and he is under the fifth grade."

"Yes, this is the first time that a certain person has been killed, and he was appointed as the captain of the five pins and the five pins, and he was proud of Dugu Xinci.

"How is this possible?" Tang Xiulong was surprised, Xu Xuanzhi ordered the wolf group to trap and guard Hailan Bubble, causing the wolf group to almost wipe out.

"Dugu Dadu Protector Shenlong only took office in November of the sixth year, and the award of a certain Zhichong Lieutenant can be related to Dugu Dadu's protection?" Dugu Xinci asked.

"But you are arrogant and domineering during your tenure, and you are fierce in the township, causing the people to live in a difficult situation, and the officials of the court dare not speak out, as if you are imprisoned, this is all a fact" Tang Xiulong hurriedly shifted the target.

"Where's the evidence?" Dugu Xinci asked.

"Does this need proof?"

"Don't you need it?"

"Do you have any evidence that you have not disturbed civil affairs?" Tang Xiulong was annoyed.

"In the sixth year of Shenlong, Hailan Pao was in the middle of the county, and Dugu Dadu took office, but he was transferred to the temple street to fold the chong captain, and the temple street had just established the county.

Yan Tang Dasi Kou Lu Xiang first checked the documents again, and such a partial text was actually collected into the hall.

"Dugu Tianxing Duwei was transferred to Temple Street Zhichong Duwei in December of the sixth year of Shenlong, Temple Street was established in December of the sixth year of Shenlong, with 1,200 households, eight years of Shenlong, household documents, Temple Street was promoted to Zhong County, Shenlong ten years, and promoted to the county" Yu Wenrong, the imperial historian, checked the copywriting and reported it one by one.

"A border county has been established for less than five years, and it has been promoted to a county in five years, but the people who have been rectified are not able to make a living?" Dugu Xin talked eloquently.

"That's also the work of the Ming Mansion," Tang Xiulong sneered.

"Miaojie County ordered Fengqi Wu Shenlong to take office in February of the seventh year, Shenlong pulled out seven products in seven years, and Shenlong pulled out six products in ten years" Wei Kang also checked the document report "I can't see any signs of Dugu Duwei suppressing officials"

"The first crime, flying and domineering, violent in the village, bullying officials, stealing merits, and finding no evidence" Lu Xiang announced the case first.

"The Great Si Kou Yingming" is a thank you gift.

"The second crime, starting a border provocation, starting an unjust war, wasting the imperial court's military funds, Dugu Tianxing, you can plead guilty?" Lu Xiang, the secretary of the Criminal Department, interrogated first.

"This is a sin that you want to add," Dugu replied with kindness.

"From the seventh year of Shenlong to the tenth year of Shenlong, there are wars in the Far East every year, if you don't start border provocations without permission, how can there be wars?" Tang Xiulong asked.

"If there are thieves in Tang Zhongcheng's house, how should Tang Zhongcheng deal with it?" Dugu Xinci asked.

"Don't talk nonsense, you started an unjust war and spent military money, but is there such a thing?"

"When the thieves come, they will naturally fight, if a certain Turkic barbarian is allowed to wreak havoc in the Far East, will Tang Zhongcheng accuse a certain of dereliction of duty?" Dugu Xinci sneered.

"But you sent troops without authorization, ignoring the military discipline of the imperial court"

"Can the military department have a military order from the seventh year of the Shenlong to the tenth year of the Shenlong?" Dugu Xinci asked the three presiding judges.

"Yes" Lu Xiangxian sighed, this Dugu Xinci is really leaky, "There are a total of sixteen military orders, all of which are orders to protect the territory and the people of the Temple Street Zhichong Mansion under the Heishui Governor's Mansion."

"So-and-so, right?" Dugu Xinci asked.

"But Shenlong's ten-year forbidden army expedition to Mohe is not because you are good at provoking the border and coercing the military department and the imperial court?" In the imperial history, Tang Xiulong asked.

"If you don't mention this matter, you still forget, in the ninth and tenth years of Shenlong, a certain has connected three times with the Anton Metropolitan Protectorate and the Military Department, can there be a bottom case?"

"Yes" Lu Xiang Xianshang Shu has a premonition, this crime is afraid that it is really a crime to be added" October of the ninth year of Shenlong, the captain of the temple street Zhichong Mansion is sparse, the military preparation is not yet complete, and it is hoped that the dispatch of troops will be suspended, and in January of the tenth year of Shenlong, the captain of Dugu Tianxing will be sparse, and 100,000 forbidden troops will go on the expedition, and military funds will be spent, so it is necessary to be cautious, and in February, it will be sparse again, and the forbidden army will be withdrawn, and the war in the Far East needs to be suspended"

Lu Shangshu's voice was not high, and the Yaqi in the Hanyuan Hall was silent, and Lu Shangshu's voice could be heard clearly.

"There is no real evidence for the crime of initiating border provocations and spending military funds without permission," Lu Xiangxian Shangshu announced.

"But the forbidden army went on an expedition to Mohe, with countless casualties and huge military expenses, and the lone murderer must be held responsible," His Royal Highness King Wu spoke out to help.

"This responsibility is beared," Duguzhen also spoke.

"The king of Dugu County can't bear this responsibility" Dugu Xinci sneered, "Song Xianggong, Su Xianggong, you and others still remember that in the ninth year of Shenlong, Dugu Dadu escorted into Beijing to report on his work, who forced him to go on the expedition?" ”

In the ninth year of Shenlong, Dugu Dadu Hu in order to delay the dispatch of troops, entered Beijing and debated with the ministers, who agreed that the war in the Far East should be ended as soon as possible, and Dugu Dadu Hu thought that the time was not ripe, and finally the sage suppressed and forcibly sent troops.

At that time, the governors of the Far East, such as Zhang Tietou, the governor of Songmo, the governor of Rao Le, and Tang Xiujing, the ambassador of Yingzhou, all played Shushu as long as the forbidden army went out to clear the remnants of the Far ****** as soon as possible, and the evidence listed was the record of the seven to nine years of Shenlong and the Heishui Governor's Office, and some people in the DPRK believed that Duguzhen Dadu Hu had not sent troops to support the army and respect himself, and that the war could be disarmed as soon as possible, saving the military supply of hundreds of thousands of border troops in the Far East every year.

On that day, Dugu Dadu almost resigned in anger, but the sage appeased him, and then returned to the Far East to preside over the battle of Mohe.

"The third crime, brutal and murderous, Dugu Tianxing, you can confess" Lu Xiang asked again.

"This sin is confessed" Dugu Xinci is very face-saving, but once again let the hall be silent, this round is so happy to admit it? It doesn't fit the character of the Demon Wolf Tianxing who is getting braver and braver the more you fight.

"The facts are there, and there is no room for murderers to quibble" Tang Xiulong and Liu Ziqing were triumphant.

"I don't see the south for a long time, and I slander the north group. One hand on the spot, after all, I will be returned. The self-smiling Han envoy is like a foreign river, and it still only flows east. And the return to the dome to worship, once to Gao Street.

The capital of Yao, the soil of Shun, the seal of Yu. In the middle of the should be, a half shameful minister. Thousands of miles are as bloody as promised, the eternal heroic spirit is here, and the majestic time passes. Why does Hu Yun have to ask, Heri is from the middle. ”

Dugu Xinci chanted a poem, and then said: "Even if you kill a few enemy chiefs, you will admit that you are guilty." ”

Lu Xiang first pondered for a moment, and then spoke again, "Sin four, yin to raise Deadpool, form a party for personal gain, raise 30,000 soldiers with the power of one county, scrape the land and search for wealth, falsely lead the court and the central government, open the estuary privately, run a businessman, and fill your private pockets, can you admit this crime?" ”

"I don't admit it" Dugu Xinci gritted his teeth, and the wolf group was torn apart, and it became a sin? Returning the sorrow of the death and injury of the party's members is really a punishment from heaven?

"How many people are there in Zhechong Mansion on Rumiao Street?" Lu Xiang asked first.

"1,850 people"

"Nonsense, there are really 30,000 people in the Zhichong Mansion on Rumiao Street," Tang Xiulong jumped out again.

"What evidence is there?" Dugu Xinci asked.

"All the soldiers of the forbidden army in the camp of the Mohe River have seen it"

"Hehe" Dugu Xinci sneered, with such detailed data, it seems that it must have something to do with Tang Xiujing? The Tang family is going to die, but Tang Xiujing's IQ is not so low?

"I don't know if the Great Sikou has a sequence of the establishment of the Mohe Camp in his hands?"

"Yes, there are 1,780 soldiers from the Zhichong Mansion in Temple Street, one Zhichong Captain, two Guoyi Captains, several lieutenants, and a few fire chiefs," Lu Xiangxian continued to read, "Where did the 30,000 people come from?" But private subordinates? ”

"Dasi Kou Mingcha, a certain is the head of the Far East Wild Wolf Mercenary Regiment, and the rest are all members of the Wolf Regiment, all of whom have been filed in the Ministry of War, and the actual number can reach 30,000, Zheng Mohe is employed by the Dadu Protectorate and the Yantang Military Department, and the commission is 2,000 taels of gold per month.

"Yes," Wei Kang replied as he flipped through the file.

"Is there a record of commissions and pensions?"

"Yes,"

"How many times?"

"Uh, once"

Dugu Xinci is anti-customer-oriented, and sighed, "Ten years of Shenlong, the battle of the Mohe River started in March, and the victory was won in October. ”

"You raise 30,000 soldiers and horses with the power of a county? What is the intention? Tang Xiulong sneered.

"Regain the Mohe, expel the Tartars, return my rivers and mountains, and take revenge" Dugu Xinci replied very happily.

In the middle of the should be, a half shameful minister. Thousands of miles are as bloody as promised, the eternal heroic spirit is here, and the majestic time passes.
