At night, the powerful Marquis's residence.
Rich middle-aged image of the mighty Marquis, face ugly sitting in a chair.
There were also two beautiful women in the hall. One of them was kneeling, weeping and heartbroken.
Another beautiful woman whispered comfort.
The second daughter is missing today. Combined with the impact of the carriage before the incident, marquis Weiwu concludes that her daughter was hijacked.
He went through the possible enemies in his mind. It should be impossible to say political enemies. After all, the hereditary title of his generation has been gradually excluded from the power stage of the imperial capital.
Of course, xungui is still an interest group that can not be ignored.
However, there is a difference between the whole and the individual. The Marquis does not remember that he has such a political enemy who goes out of his way to hijack the family members.
As for the enemy, they have not formed a feud with others recently.
"The master has already reported to the official, and has also informed Jin Wuwei, who is guarding the city gate. Don't worry, Ying'er will get it back."
"Elder sister, Ying'er is a weak woman. If something happens to her, she will not be able to survive."
Marquis Wei Wu's face puffed, and his face became more and more gloomy.
At this time, the servant came in in a hurry and called out: "master Hou, miss has found out..."
Marquis Wei Wu and his two wives rushed to the front hall. They met his daughter, who was haggard and had not dry tears, and the imperial sword guard who sent them back.
After letting the housekeeper send away the imperial sword guard with a silver reward, the powerful Marquis looked at his daughter for a moment and sighed with a little relief: "Ying'er, what's the matter?"
Zhang Yuying was held in her arms by her weeping mother and cried: "it was the childe of the Shilang family who tied me up that week. He not only wanted to smear his daughter's innocence, but also planned to kill her."
He immediately said what he saw and heard, and vividly added his story of how to escape from the wolf's nest while the guards were careless.
"Marquis, you have to decide for me and for Yinger." Zhang Yuying's whole body trembled with motherhood.
"Lord Hou, that week established again and again and again humiliate Ying'er, is also humiliating my Hou mansion." Is wife sink a way.
The powerful Marquis was so angry that he smashed the table with one hand. He was so angry that he trembled all over: "the man surnamed Zhou bullied people too much!"
The next day.
Meridian Gate, east gate.
The civil and military officials of the upper court were surprised to find that the Marquis Wei Wu came in armor today, but there was no weapon hanging around his waist.
On this day, an interesting thing happened in the court.
The powerful Marquis went to the hall in his armor, carried out his ancestors' meritorious deeds, and accused Zhou Shilang in tears.
Cry out: the ancestors fought for the emperor, went through life and death, and the daughters of later generations were bullied. If your majesty didn't protect them, wouldn't it cold the hearts of all the soldiers in the world...
things are very noisy.
Zhou Li, the culprit, was confused. When did I hijack Miss Zhang Er, I didn't know.
In a fury, Emperor Yuanjing ordered Dali temple, Ministry of punishment and duchayuan to deal with the case and give the result within two days.
As the suspect of the case, Mr. Zhou Li's first stop was the Du Cha yuan.
He was interrogated by the censor.
The official, who was the sixth grade official, sat in front of the case. Without saying a word, he gave Mr. Zhou a board first.
After beating Zhou Li's crying father and calling Mother, he patted a startling wood: "Zhou Li, the yard where the powerful Marquis's concubines are imprisoned, but your private house?"
"Yes Zhou Li can only admit it.
It is a common phenomenon for powerful nobles to buy private houses in the inner city. When Zhou Li bought the courtyard, he did not ask others to handle it.
His name is on the house deed, and the government also has the procedure to buy the house.
"Since it's your yard, there's no need to say it again. Sign and draw!"
Two yamen servants came forward, one with a confession, and the other forced Zhou Li to draw.
According to the review process of the third division, after the trial of the Supreme People's Procuratorate, the judgment was handed over to the Ministry of punishment, which did not agree with the result of the Supreme People's Procuratorate and had to be retried.
So Mr. Zhou was sent to the Ministry of punishment, where his treatment changed dramatically.
Wine and meat are in charge of satiety. The doctor of the criminal department, who is in charge of the trial, kindly went to the doctor and smeared the golden sore medicine on childe Zhou's bloody ass.
After several hours of "interrogation", the Ministry of punishment overturned the results of the duchayuan and determined that Zhou Li was innocent, but someone planted the blame.
The dossier was handed over to Dali temple.
Without saying a word, Dali Temple gave Zhou Li another beating. After a "rigorous" interrogation, Dali Temple rejected the verdict of the Ministry of punishment and held Zhou Li guilty.
The next day, seeing that Dali temple, duchayuan and the Ministry of punishment held their own opinions and did not give the result, Emperor Jingdi of the Yuan Dynasty ordered the joint trial of the three departments, and the case was upgraded.
Dali Temple sent one temple principal and two temple officials; the Ministry of punishment sent two doctors and four principal officials; the duchayuan sent two city patrolling censors.
A total of 11 officials tried the case together.
The camp of the third division joint trial is that the Ministry of punishment thinks that Zhou Li is not guilty and that there is a thief who planted and framed him. Dali temple and duchayuan unanimously found Zhou Li guilty.The two sides have been bickering for a whole day. If there is no division, there will be no result.
Until dusk, a white dress of the sky supervisor was invited to the Yamen by the officials.
"By your Majesty's will, I come to help with the case." When the white Taoist priest of Si Tianjian came to know his intention, he looked at Zhou Li kneeling in front of the hall and said:
"Zhou Li, do you want to kidnap Zhang Yuying, the daughter of the powerful Marquis?"
Zhou Li shook his head: "I did not, not me, I was wronged."
A group of officials are staring at the white clothes of Si Tianjian.
"He lied," said the righteous man in white
There is no blood color on the peripheral facade.
...
three days later, Zhou Shilang was dismissed from office and exiled because he was greedy for money and food from the state treasury and was lax in teaching his son. His son Zhou Li was exiled to southern Xinjiang.
The fifty year old rode slowly on the official road, and Xu Er Shu led the way with his horse riding.
After the news of Zhou Shilang's downfall came, Xu Pingzhi took Xu Qian and Xu Erlang to drink all night. There is not only the pleasure of revenge, but also the ease of unloading the heavy burden.
The brothers rode behind Xu Pingzhi. Xu Erlang said, "there's something I want to ask you."
Xu Dalang looked at him and said, "I wonder why Zhou Li would admit this crime, or why the court leaders such as Marquis Weiwu could not see through this not so clever planting?"
Xu Erlang pondered: "I only think of some of them. For the political enemies of Zhou Shilang, it doesn't matter whether Zhou Li was wronged or not. They will seize the chip and kill the Minister of Zhou.
"And for Marquis Wei Wu, this is an opportunity for revenge. In the past, he couldn't fight Zhou Shilang because he didn't have a helper. Now is a good chance. So he went up to the palace that day, and the whole court was talking about it.
"As for whether his daughter was tied up by Zhou Li, he may doubt it, but before there is enough evidence, it is obvious that this childe Zhou, who has repeatedly bullied his daughter, is more hateful.
"What I can't figure out is that Zhou Li didn't do it. Zhou Shilang and his fellow party members have a clear idea, so they should make a response."
"Why did you go to the sky warden that day?" Xu Qian laughed: "do you still remember what is the name of the eight products of Si Tian Jian?"
"Eight grade Wang Qi master..." Xu new year's eyes shine, suddenly bright.
"At the time of the tax and silver case, the magicians of Si Tianjian were involved in the tracking and trial of the case, which shows that the Emperor today relies on Si Tianjian." Xu Qi'an looks ahead and complains:
"at first glance, the case seems unreasonable, but if we examine it carefully, we will find that there is no trace left... Well, elder brother, I am a professional. In addition to the factors of Party strife, the case is doomed to be troublesome and difficult to investigate. Of course, the simplest and most effective way is to find the magician of Si Tianjian. "
Xu Xinnian was convinced: "therefore, big brother bribed the magician of Si Tianjian."
"Coarse!" Xu Qi'an spat and said openly: "how can we call the alchemist a bribe? It's an exchange of equal value!"
After a pause, he said: "farewell to the old, you remember that at the end of the day, except blood relatives, all friends and enemies are because of the word" interest ", especially in officialdom."
"No one will treat you without reason, and no one will hate you without reason. Even if your best friend makes friends with you, it must be your existence that plays a positive role for him. "
"In the future, you will become an official in the court. I hope you can be an able minister, not a clean official." Xu Qi'an instilled his private goods into the little brother, and said slowly, "remember, go with the light."
In order to cultivate the little brother to be the chief assistant of Dafeng, we must first make him into his own shape. Otherwise, what's the use of cultivating a primary and secondary school with different ways?
Xu new year's eyes looked into the distance and said in a loud voice: "with the light of the world... What if I am lost in the fog of power in the future?"
"It's your own destiny. Of course, if you become a treacherous minister, you will clean up the door." Qixu said seriously.
"Good!" Xu new year's fight: "if my brother becomes a warrior of the disaster side, I will be the same."
How do I feel like I've set up a flag... Xu Qi'an coughed and looked at Xu Pingzhi: "second uncle, you have to be a witness for us."
"Go away!" Xu Pingzhi turned back and scolded: "open mouth, shut up, fight with my roommate, when Laozi doesn't exist?"
PS: in order to highlight the party struggle and the desperation of the evil villain, I wrote six thousand words.
For this reason, I also checked the ancient process of solving cases.
Later, I thought, why do I have to give so much ink to a minor supporting role? Isn't it a confusion of priorities. With so much ink, how good I am to write about my aunt
then extracted the essence, highlighted party disputes, and reduced the process of examination. It's not interesting to write. I guess you won't like it.
This plot of Zhou Shilang is the beginning of the whole volume.
