Occasionally, Zhang Yang would go to the makeshift triage office to listen to their discussions and discussions.

In the evening, when the discussion was over, Li Tai arranged for several rooms to be built at the entrance of the village, and even prisoners were taken here.

Following Zheng Gong out of the temporary official residence, Zhang Yang sighed: "Recently, Zhang Xingcheng is presiding over the affairs of all parts of Fanyang? ”

Zheng Gong looked ahead and nodded with a book in his hand, coughing twice from time to time.

The old man's back is not rickety at all, and he is still as tall at this age.

Zhang Yang said with a smile: "How about you come to Lishan to retire after you are busy with this matter?" There are old friends in Lishan. ”

Hearing this, Zheng Gong's footsteps stopped, and he said in a low voice: "Pension? If the old man is old, what should this court do? ”

"Do you have to be sick to stop?"

Seeing that Gong Zheng didn't speak, Zhang Yang said again: "It's very common to retreat to the official and return Lu to the king." ”

Zheng Gong said in a low voice: "Child, do you know how hard-won the peace of Zhenguan is, do you know how many heads fell to the ground when Xuanwu Gate passed overnight?" ”

Zhang Yang frowned and stood in place, but Zheng Gong's footsteps were still the same.

There were many secrets about the events of that night in Xuanwumen, and Zheng Gong was a subordinate of Li Jiancheng back then, and he must have known more than others.

"You can't convince him."

Zhang Gongjin's words came from behind him.

Zhang Yang turned around and looked, "Teacher, Zheng Gong seems to be carrying a lot." ”

Zhang Gongjin nodded slowly and said, "Did Gong Zheng show you the case file?" ”

"Nope."

"Well, that's good, you are a Chinese scholar, Zheng Gong just asked you to be an assistant, don't do what you shouldn't do, don't say what you shouldn't say."

"The student understands that the old grievances between His Majesty and the family, and the old affairs between Zheng Gong and His Majesty are not something I can participate in, and the teacher wants me to watch from the sidelines."

"Watch and see, you can learn a lot." Zhang Gongjin stroked his beard and said.

"The student understood."

The assassination did not attract the attention of others at first, but there were several waves of assassinations in the past two nights, and although Lishan did not have any losses, this matter could not be concealed after all.

Recently, Xiong Da has always been taken out by his aunt at night.

The bear is sensitive to smells, but it can always spot the signs when a stranger sets foot on it.

Forced the family to do everything.

The population of Chang'an City is too large, and if this incident happens in Chang'an, there may be some kind of chaos.

There are also more soldiers and horses sent to Lishan, Zhang Yang stands halfway up the mountainside of Lishan, and from here you can see all the soldiers and horses arranged below.

General Li Jing divided the soldiers and horses of the Longwu Army into three layers, and surrounded Lishan in front and back.

Except for leaving a small road, which is for the entry and exit of goods in Lishan.

The emperor used to come to Lishan for the winter, and he would not have so many guards, and the villagers in the village did not know about the assassinations in the past two days.

I just feel nervous lately.

These days, led by Zheng Gong, the Yushitai, the Criminal Department, and the Dali Temple have collected these criminal evidence, as well as the prisoners and human witnesses.

The day of the emperor's appointment with the Duke of Zheng has arrived.

The first triage of the three law divisions during the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty.

Tian Khan's wings are stiff, and after he has power in his hands, he only needs a reason.

And Fan Yang's students' rebellion is the biggest reason.

Two days later, Ma Zhou came to Lishan with a team of officials, and Li Tai organized people to arrange rest and meals for these officials.

Today is the official start of the triage.

Zhang Yang woke up early.

Li Yue took out the official uniform that her husband hadn't worn for a long time, patted it vigorously, and put it on after tidying it up.

"It's been a long time since I've seen my husband in an official uniform."

Zhang Yang said with a smile: "Today is a rare formal occasion, and you always have to wear it, a kind of funeral family." ”

Li Yue straightened her husband's collar and looked at it carefully, "It's still so fitting, after so many years, I haven't seen fat or thin." ”

Xiao Qingqing had been waiting for a long time riding the bear, and she was very excited to see the triage.

Zhang Yang walked out of the house wearing official boots and walked down the mountain with his daughter and Xiong Da.

In the early morning, the wind and snow had just stopped, and the sky was still overcast.

At this moment, in front of the triage mansion outside Lishan Village, there were many people standing in the distance, and many of them were watching the triage this time to see what would happen to those children of the family.

Di Renjie and Zhang Cambodia stood in the crowd.

"That is the county marquis of Lishan." Zhang Cambodia saw the man standing next to a sturdy brown bear at first glance.

"How do you know?"

Zhang Cambodia said in a low voice: "There have long been rumors in Chang'an City that this Marquis of Lili County has a fierce beast. ”

After that, Zhang Cambodia said again: "People who are accompanied by fierce beasts by their side are not good people. ”

Di Renjie said disdainfully: "Are you the harmony that you see in the words of the sage of the classics? ”

Zhang Cambodia's way: "We and other juniors should read more of the words of the sage." ”

The crowd was far away from the official residence of the triage, thirty feet apart.

When he wanted to get closer, he was stopped by officers and soldiers.

In front of the official residence, Zhang Yang saw Cen Wenwen.

"The county marquis participated in this trial, and he still brought his daughter and this beast?"

"It's her own front yard, she came for a walk, and she came to listen by the way."

Xiao Qingqing sat on the bear's neck and raised his head and said, "My bear is big and won't bite you." ”

Zhang Yang glanced at her and said in a low voice: "Call someone, Uncle Wen." ”

She reluctantly shouted, "Uncle Text." ”

Cen Wenwen stroked his beard and said: "The old man has the same official rank as your father, if you want to learn government politics in the future, you can come to Chang'an City to find the old man." ”

"Uncle Shevin."

Although the child looked reluctant, Cen Wenwen's eyes were more satisfied, "It's a pity, the old man has only one daughter in his family." ”

Zhang Yang snorted coldly: "What? Could it be that my son is about to marry my Lishan? ”

"Your Lishan is the home of merchants, and the old man can't pull this face."

"Hehehe...... When you take our Lishan things, your skin is quite thick. ”

Cen Wenwen was puzzled: "Is there one?" ”

Zhang Yang said to his daughter in front of him: "This Uncle Wen is not a good person, it is not good for your father and I to meet him, don't get too close to him." ”

Xiao Qingqing nodded heavily, "My daughter understands." ”

Cen Wenwen's smile stiffened on his face, "County Marquis, you are really ......"

Zhang Yang said again: "It's about to start, let's go and prepare first." ”

Xiao Qingqing rode a bear and stood on one side, and from the audience's point of view, she was the closest spectator.

Zhang Yang walked into this temporary official residence, and the scribes were busy.

Zheng Gong presided over the trial, and Zhao Guogong and Fang Xiang were also present.

The scene was very serious, everyone was silent, and Zhang Yang was a little worried that Li Tai would take out the tea eggs at this time.

"County Marquis, there has been a person in Lingnan recently."

"Who in Lingnan can make Brother Wen care?"

Cen Wenwen whispered: "There is a general named Hou Hongren in Yuzhou, Hou Hongren sent troops from Qiqi, and then out of Yongzhou, in order to communicate with Guiman, and surrendered more than 100,000 households. ”

Zhang Yang gasped, "When did it happen?" ”

"It was arranged a long time ago, and the news was only sent recently, maybe I can get through Nanzhao."

Zhang Yang looked displeased, and said, "Brother Wen knew that Nanzhao was in my hands and came to warn me?" ”

Cen Wenwen stroked his beard and smiled: "The county marquis is the king of Nanzhao, and Nanzhao is the country of the courtiers of the Tang Dynasty, how can he easily go to the country of the courtiers." ”

"I think you're just having bad intentions."

As the two spoke, a group of people were escorted to the front.

Zhang Yang sat down with Cen Wenwen, looking at these children of the family.

Judging by the fact that their clothes are still a little expensive, it seems that they have been interrogated here not long after they were arrested.

Neither Duke Zheng nor the emperor wanted to give Fan Yang too much respite.

Zhang Yang, as a bystander, watched this trial go on quietly.

Zheng Gong read the names of one person after another, one crime after another, and at this moment, the old man did not cough at all, but had a strong voice.

was reciting the guilt, a fast horse came from afar, and the person who came came close turned over and dismounted and handed over a scroll, "Fan Yang is urgent!" ”

Cen Wenwen stood up and took the urgent report and handed it to Zheng Gong.

After reading the urgent report, Zheng Gong handed it over to Fang Xiang and Zhao Guogong again.

The trial was interrupted, and a lot of discussion began.

Zhang Yang sat with his hands closed and his eyes closed, and it could be learned from the discussion of these scribes that Fan Yang's Lu family wanted to rebel with a group of soldiers and horses, and they were all killed under Li Junxian's artillery fire.

Among them, the six heads of the Fanyang Lu family all died, and the heads of the families were all beheaded.

More than 300 families were killed, and some scholars burned down the ancestral hall of Fanyang Lu's family and burned Fanyang Lu's family clean.

Zheng Gong stood up and read this urgent report, and the children of the family who were on trial on the ground gritted their teeth and cried.

Suddenly, one of the children of the family shouted: "Tian Khan! Our Fanyang Lu family is dead! ”

Zheng Gong said in a low voice: "The troublesome students will naturally give justice, you Fan Yang bought and sold other people's families, sold the rural village girls into lowly status, seized people's property, and killed the whole family, but you are still at large, the justice of this world has long been lost!" ”

As he spoke, Zheng Gong's tone trembled.

The children of the family were all sobbing at the scene, "Nearly a hundred generations, the six-hundred-year-old family is gone!" ”

There are also children of the family who shouted: "Tian Khan! Is that what you want? ”

The Emperor is not here, nor will he hear their roars and sobs.

Zhang Yang slowly opened his eyes and looked at them expressionlessly.

If the family is going to die, it is the choice of this era, and it is the choice of all the people at the bottom.

It is impossible for the emperor to stand on the side of the family and squeeze the people at the bottom together.

From the beginning of Li Shimin's desire to prosper the imperial examination, he stood on the opposite side of the family.

The wind of the times is blowing, and no one can stop it, and no one can stop it.

Finally, these people were taken down, and Wei Zheng said loudly: "Oh my people! Listen to Ersur, the world is in pain, and the fire is deep. The family gate valve, for the tiger to be a fighter, a high-ranking family, to the owl to Zhang! This dynasty is to promote the imperial examination and promote justice...... Listen to all the people, listen to Ersuer, the society is deep, the fire is deep, the mountain bandit family, the tiger is the tiger, the power is in hand, and the ...... is Zhang

Wei Zheng took a deep breath and said loudly: "Oh my people! Yaer loyalty, prosper the world justice, and share the same hatred! ”

A few sighs to my people, so that the children of the family below will no longer sob, no longer wail.

The sound was transmitted far away, and the crowd of onlookers in the distance could hear it clearly.

Someone remembered the article.

Zhang Cambodia suddenly shouted: "Okay! ”

And with it came the cheers of all.

Under these cheers, a butcher's knife towards the family fell.

Pei Xuanji finally took out the essay of the family, and this essay also fell into the hands of Zheng Gong.

The children of the family were finally taken down.

The cheers of the masses came one after another, and the Heavenly Khan reached this point, and finally walked on the line of the masses.

The trial went smoothly and unsurprisingly.

Many scribes have begun to pack up and leave in twos and threes.

Seeing that Cen Wenwen was still sitting upright, Zhang Yang asked, "Isn't Brother Wenwen going back?" ”

"I don't know why, I always feel that the burden on my body is a lot looser, what does the county marquis think?"

"I'm a country man, where did I get the burden, Brother Wen laughed."

Cen Wenwen slowly stood up, "The burden on your body should be heavier." ”

The trial ended after half a day, Di Renjie rode his horse to Chang'an City, and ran wildly towards the imperial city, with the hustle and bustle in his ears.

When he arrived at the entrance of the ceremonial department, Di Renjie held on to the door and gasped.

A water bladder was handed over, he reached out and took it, poured three or two sips, then he felt a lot more comfortable, handed the water bladder back, wiped his mouth and said, "Thank you......"

When he looked up, he found that it was Xu Jingzong who handed him water.

Di Renjie patted his head in distress, "In this imperial city, only the Ministry of Rites has an open door, and there will be no one else except Xu Shangshu." ”

Xu Jingzong leaned against the door and asked, "It's over?" ”

Di Renjie sat on the threshold and said in a low voice, "Xu Shangshu, the whale is dead." ”

Xu Jingzong bowed his head and said, "Sooner or later." ”

"Why do you say morning or night?"

Xu Jingzong said lightly: "This world is never decided by one or two people, if the family and the emperor do not become a family, they will become enemies." ”

"What Xu Shangshu means is that even if Tian Khan doesn't do these things now, there will be people besides the family in the future."

Xu Jingzong nodded and said, "The family will be there, and it will stay in the history books." ”

Di Renjie thought about it and said, "I always feel that all this is too fast. ”

Xu Jingzong said with a smile: "It's been a long time, you just saw the trial, I don't know how much criticism Your Majesty suffered for compiling the clan chronicles." ”

Not long after, Li Yifu also ran quickly, "Xu Shangshu, Xu Shangshu!" ”

Xu Jingzong said with a straight face: "Don't howl, the old man knows." ”

Li Yifu, like Di Renjie before, first held on to the door and gasped for a while.

Then the three of them sat together on the threshold.

Li Yifu whispered: "There is a big incident over there in Fan Yang, and many people have been arrested, including those literati and lowly people who make trouble. ”

Li Yifu, who is also from a low background, is very excited, and he feels that more people like him will find a way out in the future.

Li Yifu raised his head and said: "If there is a day in the future, the lower officials can also be extremely popular ministers, and the clan chronicles will be burned." ”

Xu Jingzong smiled disdainfully and said, "Your current Taoism wants to be an extremely human minister...... No way. ”

"Xu Shangshu, how can you see it?"

"There is also a Zhongshu province above us."
