Chapter 32: Something happened in the Criminal Department
The next day, there was an incident that spread all over the streets and alleys of Feng'an City.
Someone beats the drum to file a complaint against the royal court, although this royal complaint is a way to redress the grievances of ordinary people, but the person who sues the royal complaint must be very courageous.
First of all, all the way from his hometown to Feng'an, this way is most likely to be captured by officers and soldiers as refugees.
If you are lucky not to be caught, then this way to Feng'an by your legs, if the family is not rich, then this way you may beg along the street, if you bring more dry food, there may also be robbers.
This is only one of them, after arriving at the destination, if it is to sue the official, then you need to guard against the danger of being killed at any time.
Being able to hit the drums is the biggest victory of all! It's just that this sue is not that simple.
First of all, the complaint needs to be punished first, and rolling the nail board is a must! Of course, there are other supplementary punishments, and each dynasty has changed other supplementary punishments, but this article alone is unbearable for ordinary people.
Of course, if the family has money, you can hire someone, but you must be of the same clan and township, otherwise it will be invalid.
Also, it will be accepted only if you are able to recite the words on the paper word for word!
This is not over, there must be no problems in the middle of the complaint, there must be no unexpected situation such as a cold or some kind of disease, if it is a life, then it is impossible to say.
In the end, even if you completely win the lawsuit, you will be fought a hundred battles, and then you will be sent to the army.
Setting up these obstacles is naturally to increase the cost of filing a lawsuit, otherwise the Criminal Department and the emperor will be busy every day.
But today, the person who sued the royal court is very courageous, because today happens to be the last day of Song Jihyo's case.
And the three divisions will be tried, all the major officials are in the Criminal Department, and there are two princes, the person who sued the royal complaint is no one else, it is Meng Mingde, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department.
The other two divisions are also there, and there are two princes, which avoids the possibility of being "hacked", and this main accuser is in the Criminal Department, if there is any accident, then the Criminal Department Shangshu can't tell what!
"Hand over the paper!" King Qi spoke!
After King Qi read it, he put the paper away, "Take care of the people first, report to the father first, and now we will close this case first!" ”
Song Zhixiao was sentenced to death, and Meng Mingde, the secretary of the criminal department who was sitting on the main seat, turned pale, because when he reported it, he said that it was he who sued the emperor.
Looking at Song Ji-hyo who was dragged out, he felt as if he was no better.
The emperor looked at it, "Song Zhixiao's matter is not over yet, this is another incident, what kind of thing is it!" The emperor angrily smashed the teacup in his hand directly!
"Father is angry, although there have been a lot of things recently, but if this matter is true, and now we find out, it means that our Dachu has not been bored!"
"This matter is still being interrogated by the three divisions, presided over by King Qi, give me a hard investigation!"
"Yes, I'm afraid that Erchen alone will not be able to do it, or Erchen and the fifth brother together"
"Mmmm, it's okay, you're getting more and more stable!" The emperor nodded approvingly.
"Then the father, the son will retire first!"
"Well, go ahead!"
King Yan and King Qi sat together in the main living room of the Criminal Department, looking at the paper, their faces were very bad.
The person who sued the emperor is named Li Ping, and he is an ordinary peasant, of course, if this is the case, his life is ordinary and the book of the criminal department is estimated to be incompatible for eight lifetimes.
This Li Ping has two sons, one is named Li An and the other is Li Kang, and the name is very ordinary at first glance.
One day, the county magistrate said that the Shangshu of the Criminal Department was going to pass through here, and a few young men were needed to maintain order, and Li Ping's two sons were very strong.
Of course, what the county lord said, these ordinary people have no reason to refuse!
On the first day, the two sons came back from labor and said that they had seen Master Shangshu!
Later, they went home every other day, and during this period, Li Ping also wanted to see what his son was doing!
also met the legendary Lord Shangshu, and Li Ping went home with peace of mind!
Later, the two sons did not return home for four or five days, and when Li Ping inquired, he heard that Master Shangshu had left, but the two sons did not appear, and Li Ping was still waiting on the first night.
The next day, I still didn't see the two sons, so I went to ask the county lord and said, the county lord said that he might think the two of them were very good, and it was unknown if they were taken away by Shangshu!
Lao Ping felt that something was wrong, and went home and thought, if this is really the case, then at least come back and talk to himself.
Li Ping felt very wrong, and searched around, but there was no result.
Just one night, my son told himself that they were crushed under the mine, and everyone was gone!
Li Ping hurriedly looked for the place his son said, and only saw the collapse of a mine, and everything was exactly the same as what his son said.
The sons of several people in the same village were not found, and several people coincidentally received their son's dream and looked for the county master together, and the county master said that this was found by the criminal department, and he didn't know at all.
I thought about going up to the next level, but when I heard that it was about the book of the Criminal Department, no one paid attention to it.
Several people in the village held the same paper, and whoever could sue the royal petition would sue.
This is how things happened, King Qi looked at the old man in front of him with gray hair, his body was covered with blood after rolling through the iron nails, his hair was scattered, and his clothes were not covered!
King Qi looked at his heart sour, and immediately said, "Fly the pigeon to pass the book immediately, the mine over there will be guarded for me, no one will move, come here, prepare horses for us!" ”
King Qi and King Yan hurried all the way to Pinghe County, where Li Ping was located.
"Master, King Qi and King Yan have set off!"
"Is it the King of Qi who is presiding over this time?"
"Yes!"
"In terms of ability, King Qi is indeed superior!" Baili Yichen said lightly.
"Step by step, the forces of the two princes have fallen one each!" The prince came out of the compartment!
"Bringing down King Yan and King Qi is only secondary, those innocent people shouldn't die like this!" Baili Yichen said, hiding the killing intent in his eyes.
"Yes, how difficult it is to sue the emperor, how can you succeed without your protection! It's just that the old man with white hair sent the black man to the black man! ”
"I've been very tired lately, you can worry about these things, remember to take medicine!" Baili Yichen said slowly.
"Good!" Now that the prince has cleaned the prince's mansion, his body is also slowly getting better!
"What's going on with your son-in-law?"
"He's been in a bad mood lately, and I don't know why?"
"Man, there will be a few days, you know!" A voice appeared, waiting to see the person who came, dressed in white, handsome.
"Meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" The person who came just bowed his hand slightly.
"Divine Doctor Gong Yuyao, really has an extraordinary bearing!" The prince said gently.
"I'm using this skin to deceive people, don't you poke me!" Gong Yuyao said with a smile.
"Childe came from afar, come over for a cup of tea and then chat!"
