Volume 3 Chapter 33 Keeping People Under the Knife
In the early morning of the ninth morning, there was a heavy fog in Changyang County, the sky was gray, and there was a hazy light in the space. The rare fog lasted until near noon, when it gradually dissipated, and the sun sprinkled down and the sky and the earth suddenly brightened.
With a "creaking" sound, the heavy wooden door of the prison was opened.
"No, no, no, it can't be! You must be mistaken......"
Zhang struggled desperately, and the shackles under his feet shook with a "bang, bang, bang", and a large piece of his calf was worn out, and the dirty blood oozed out, and after a while, it was soaked in a large area of red. Zhang didn't seem to feel the pain, and struggled to make a final struggle for his life, hoping to get out of the predicament. However, that was doomed to be in vain. Two stout and powerful pro-soldiers caught him in the middle, and after a few strokes dragged him out of the door and stuffed him into a prisoner's cart.
From the dark prison, he was suddenly dragged into the sun, his eyes narrowed, and tears flowed down his face. In just three days, Zhang became much haggard, as if he had aged several years all of a sudden. His hair was scattered on the wooden flail, and Zhang couldn't care about the shame, and cried in a low voice.
"Zhao Tun, someone brought it!"
"Have you found out?"
One pro-soldier rudely grabbed Zhang's hair and asked him to face the sky on his back, while the other pro-soldier poured a bucket of water on Zhang's head, and then wiped his face vigorously with a rag, Zhao Yun looked carefully and confirmed that it was Zhang, so he nodded heavily:
"Good! It's Zhang! It's time to hit the road. Like a man! β
The latter sentence was said to Zhang, looking at his tearful appearance, Zhao Yun couldn't help but despise it. Naturally, Zhang would not feel the same way. A few days ago, Zhang Gongzi was still a Zhang Gongzi that no one dared to provoke, and he dared to gather everyone to resist the arrest of the trial, and he dared to roar loudly in the court...... But at this moment. Zhang shuddered with fear, sometimes threatening, sometimes pleading, sometimes roaring, sometimes sobbing......
"Shut his mouth!"
It's disgusting for a big man to cry and cry. Zhao Yun commanded sharply - this is too embarrassing for the general to cry all the way - the pro-army on the left and right quickly carried out the order. A fist-sized wooden ball was forced into his open mouth, leaving him with only a residual whimper.
Seventeen prison carts were parked at the gate of the prison, and Zhang Sheng, Zhang Kun, Liu San and others were stuffed into the prison carts one after another, and it was time to hit the road......
The wheels rolled against the stone pavement with a tiny crumbling sound. Under the scorching sun, the roads were crowded with crows and crows. The murderous fame of Zhang and others is well-known in Changyang. It can stop children from crying. I heard that they were on the road today, and the people of Changyang poured out of the city. But. Due to the arrest on the sixth day of the trial, the trial was completed on the seventh day of the first month. The eighth day of the first month claimed to report it to Zhang Han, but the ninth day of the first month made a surprise attack and wanted to be executed on the same day. People from afar can't come, otherwise, there will be more people standing here at this time, countless people are scolding in a low voice, and low cries are heard from time to time. There were also pieces of earth and rocks thrown onto the prisoner cart. The officials tried to stop this behavior, but the effect was not obvious, and the pro-soldiers who were walking on both sides to guard the prisoner carts were inevitably affected by the pond fish......
Sitting on the high platform on the edge of the school field, the judge had a straight face and didn't say a word. Sitting next to the judge, Changyang County Dai County Ling Sun sat like a needle felt, not feeling the warmth of autumn at all, only feeling a chill. Sun didn't dare to speak, and he didn't moveβhis predecessor, the county magistrate, and the county lieutenant, along with Gong Cao, were kneeling down to accompany him at this moment. Waiting for them, in addition to being dismissed, there are ten times that they will face more severe punishment. In short, they're finished!
Time seems to have been stretched infinitely, and Sun lost the concept of time in the long wait. Maybe it was a short while, maybe after a long time, Sun suddenly heard a cry, looked sideways, and found that the prisoners were already in place. In addition to the seventeen felons, four chiefs, and more than 140 local accomplices involved in the case, they knelt on the school grounds. The executioner stood beside Hou Qiu's prisoner with his upper body in his hand, the long knife shining coldly, and he held it in his arms.
It's three o'clock in the afternoon!
The judge raised the Zhu sign high, waved it vigorously, and threw it down.
"Keep people under the knife!"
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
"Nephew, can't you sit idly by? This is a rebellion......"
"Lao Qi, you can't watch this, our Zhang family can't let people bully you......"
"Seventh brother, I'm just such a son, looking at the brother's sake, you have to pull me and you ......"
β¦β¦
There were also Zhang Er's grandmothers and a few women, who simply sat on the ground and started crying, Zhang He's face was pale, and his head was about to explode. Whoever was argued like this for three days would also have a splitting headache.
Zhang He is peaceful by nature, has no shelf, and is quite kind to whoever he talks to. This is not a good thing, but his weak personality and easy to listen to people's words are a big flaw. In the past few days, Zhang He has said three thousand six good things, both facts and morality, but these people are not willing to listen to these at all. Occupy a little land, grab a few women, what is a big deal, can you use such a fuss, and the courage to judge the land is too big, this Qingzhou is still not the world of the Zhang family......
It's not that there are no complaints about Zhang Han. If there is no Zhang Han's command, how can the trial be able to move the pro-army, Tai Shici will not follow, without Zhang Han's warrant and handwritten letters, who can arrest people from this Shidao Village. But at this time, he couldn't say this, without Zhang Han, the county Zhang family didn't want to be so beautiful......
Zhang He took another sip of tea, why is it not yet noon, Zhang Han, this kid is so frizzy, why hasn't the Wang family come today, and the way to get a woman from the land is that Zhang is an idiot...... Thinking about the mess in his heart, Zhang He couldn't hold on anymore. Zhang He inevitably felt a little resentful about the trouble his son had brought him.
Zhang He just couldn't hold on anymore, but these people really couldn't hold on, and if they delayed the time, they were afraid that their heads would fall to the ground, and it would be too late......
"Get up! Get up! As a nephew, how dare this be a ......?"
Seeing that the situation was not good, Grandma Zhang fell to her knees with a pop. Zhang He suddenly couldn't stand it, and immediately stood up, wanting to avoid it. The people next to him had already discussed how to get him out of the way and surround him in the middle.
"Seventh nephew, you can't let me, a white-haired person, send a black-haired person, I beg you......"
Grandma Zhang's second grandmother banged her head, but Zhang He was stuck there and couldn't move. With Grandma Zhang's second grandmother, Hulala knelt down. For a while, Zhang He panicked, young and orderly, where could he stand this, and shouted repeatedly:
"Get up, second aunt, please get up, brother, what are you doing, I promise, I ...... everything"
"Ahem!"
Just when everyone's faces were happy, a familiar voice came from outside the door:
"You're all elders, what are you doing? Why is there so no rules, when there are elders in the family, don't you know about hospitality?
Someone's coming!
Put the second grandmother, the third uncle, the third aunt, and the eleventh uncle...... Help me up!
Respect, my father told you, don't go yet! β
Zhang Wang was articulate and said a lot of words as soon as he entered the door.
As soon as Zhang Wang came in, the people in the room had different faces. These people persecuted Zhang He, and the servants and maids serving next to him couldn't see it for a long time, but Zhang He didn't speak, and there was no room for them to do anything. At this time, he received the order, and stepped forward and lifted the people up
i[He was also let go, and he couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, and he wanted to take the opportunity to withdraw.]
It's not that simple, though. Some people got up, and some people refused to give up. Seeing that Zhang He was leaving, Zhang Er's grandmother took a step on her knees, hugged Zhang He's thigh, and hit her head directly on his leg. When they saw this, they all got up and fell to their knees again. Zhang Wang shouted twice, but no one paid attention to it at all, she couldn't ask someone to force these people out. To put it bluntly, these people are determined to ignore their faces, but Zhang He and his wife can't do this. At a time when you are talking and talking, each saying his own thing, it is a mess, and the trouble is inseparable......
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
"Keep people under the knife! Mu Zhonghou has an order, keep people under the knife, and there is another handwritten book here! β
Seeing that Lord Qingtian wanted to conform to the will of the people and start killing, he suddenly ran out to disrupt the situation, and the three hundred pro-soldiers guarding the school immediately became nervous. And the crowd spread ten, ten, hundred, and soon quieted down. The executioners also hesitated, knowing that today's affairs were difficult, and the executioners couldn't help but look up at the trial. In the noise, the trial only heard the words "Mu Zhonghou" and "keep people under the knife". With a little association, you will know that things are not good.
At this time, there was only a quick knife to cut through the mess, and the judge grabbed the root Zhu sign again, and left it behind, Tai Shici shouted:
"It's three o'clock in the afternoon! Open the knife and ask for it! β
Everyone in the school field held their breath. Waiting for the development of the situation, Tai Shici shouted clearly. The person who came couldn't agree, so he hurriedly shouted again:
"Mu Zhonghou has an order, keep people under the knife, and there is another handwritten book here!"
The people who came galloped from Shidao on horseback, and squeezed all the way into the school field, panting like a cow from exhaustion, and silent in the school field. The visitor was triumphant, holding up the letter, and rushed into the school grounds.
Mu Zhonghou is Zhang He, when Zhang Han was a big official, he gave his father a marquis. and gave Zhang He the Pu Tao Garden in Zhangjiamu as a fief - the Pu Tao Garden was originally owned by Zhang He, and Zhang Han was ridiculed by Zhang Wang's family. Say he's too stingy.
The Great Han Kingdom has always ruled the world with filial piety, and Zhang He is Zhang Han's father. Not to mention the trial, even if Zhang Han is here, he has to obey his orders obediently. How can someone come unexpectedly.
Zhang He and his wife were also helpless.
According to the convention of the story, at a critical moment, a certain great god will appear and solve the problem in one fell swoop. However, in Shidao Village, Zhang He and his wife are the leaders, and Zhang Zhao is going to come forward. Apparently. With Zhang Zhao in his seventies, Zhang He and his wife no matter what. I can't work anymore old man. Therefore, Zhang He and his wife had no choice but to kneel together with Zhang Er's grandmother. Grandma Zhang Er saw this. It's even more like death, and you're going to die here. In desperation, Zhang He had to be forced to write a letter by hand - if it weren't for Zhang Wang's tough attitude, Zhang He Shizhi** would have been coerced to the school field.
At this critical moment, the judge hesitated, stood up, and shouted:
"I am Peng Cao of Zhang Cheqi, not a subordinate official of Muzhong Houdi......
What are the executioners waiting for. Execute! β
There was no sound at all in the school field, and Tai Shici also knew that he could not hesitate at this time. took a step forward and shouted with the judge:
"Someone is coming to collide with the law field, take it for me!"
Tai Shici is also famous in the pro-army for a long time, and the pro-army who guards the school field and makes guest appearances as executioners are all brought over by him, so what else can he say under this order. The executioners were all cameos with their own soldiers, and they didn't say anything about killing, but the craftsmanship of beheading was mediocre, but fortunately, they didn't panic, kicked the prisoner down, and cut down the blood gourd on the ground with a click. Zhang's head rolled out six or seven steps away, stopped beside the county cheng, the sticky blood flowed all over the ground, the two big eyes were round, staring at the county cheng, and he was scared on the spot and fainted......
Zhao Yun also went forward, took down the person who came in three or two clicks, and took the letter and presented it to the trial. The judge hesitated, motioned to Zhao Yun, and handed the letter to Tai Shici. Tai Shici had no way to shirk, so he had to smile slightly, and took this hot letter into his arms.
β¦β¦
On this day, the judge killed seventy-four people in one go. In addition, when Zhang and others were arrested a few days ago, they were killed on the spot, and the trial was completed to behead 100 people in Changyang. This is a good kill, the direct killing is the head of the people, the size of Donglai County trembling like a chilling cicada, the prestige is within reach, Qingzhou and other states and three counties are solemn.
But that's just the beginning. The trial of this trip is to "strike hard" -- to severely crack down on corrupt officials, corrupt officials, and bullies. What is the impact is particularly bad, the circumstances are particularly bad, and the people are very angry, and the trial and matching have traveled all over the six counties of Qingzhou, together with the Lu country, the Langxi country and Taishan County. Wherever the trial goes, detailed and accurate local information will be sent to him. The judge was secretly shocked in his heart, this was clearly on the thief ship, and he was used as a knife. However, the trial was also upright, and he didn't think too much, it was all a case with facts, and he killed it all the way. Later, before the judge arrived, many counties were already panicked, and officials and bullies fled when they heard the news. Sparrow had to cooperate with the local garrison and arrest some important criminals in the name of trial.

"This is too shameful for me!"
Zhang He didn't want to write a letter to intercede, but since he wrote it, he was ignored, which made him very dissatisfied.
"Forget it, forget it, what's so angry about this, in the final analysis, it's just that a few of them are not angry, Han'er obviously gave them a chance, or they still don't repent......"
With a son on one side and a husband on the other, Zhang Wang had no choice but to persuade him. In fact, she is also somewhat dissatisfied with the trial - the trial is also ignorant. If it is afterwards, the judge will come to apologize, at most give him a little loss, and the matter will be revealed. No matter what, this matter is also instigated by Zhang Han behind his back, can it really be compared with the trial?
On August 13, Zhang Han received a handwritten letter from his father and a detailed report on what had happened.
On 14 August, Zhang Han left his official duties, took a small number of guards with him, and arrived at Shidao on 17 August.
On the same day, Zhang Han asked to see his father. Zhang He didn't see it. Zhang Han only saw his mother, Zhang Wang. Zhang Han waited for three days, but Zhang He refused to see him.
On August 20, Zhang Wang's heart ached for his son and informed Zhang Zhao of it. Zhang Zhao was furious, taught Zhang He to scold, and wanted to scold Zhang He with a cane, Zhang Han replaced him, and the father and son reconciled.
However, Zhang Han did not blame the trial after all. It's just that considering Zhang He, Zhang Han did not publicly reward and judge.
: Zhang Han is here, he should have been kneeling and begging for three days. According to the etiquette of the Han Dynasty, he angered his father, and it should be so. However, I don't like it very much, and I guess the readers don't like it either, so I'll forget about it vaguely.
In addition, Liu Bei came to the door to post and asked to see the general of the chariot.
"What? I'm out again, can I live in Lindu for a year? β
PS: That's all for today. Two chapters are still owed. Khan results to the present. I haven't been able to come out yet. The white embroidered pig thought for a moment. If you want to reform and open up, it is better to "be strict" first......
