Chapter 1030 Zhu Ping'an's suggestion
After getting everyone's approval, Wang Xueyi couldn't wait to lay down at his desk and write the closing statement of the court trial.
Wang Xueyi is the chief writer, and the closing statement can be imagined.
The final conclusion is that the officials participating in the court trial, including the Sanfa Division, agreed that Yang Jisheng committed the crime of misrepresenting the prince's decree, the crime of framing a superior official, and the crime of deceiving the emperor.
After finishing writing, Wang Xueyi couldn't wait to dry the ink, and asked the officials who participated in the court trial to sign it.
Everyone stepped forward to sign one by one.
Punishment Minister He Ao was the penultimate signer. Before signing, he read Wang Xueyi's closing statement word by word, with a slightly hesitant expression.
"Hehe, if Lord Shangshu likes the words written by Xiaguan, after this errand is over, Xiaguan will carefully copy a collection of poems by Lord Shangshu and send them to Sir. Now, Sir, hurry up and sign your name, and don't make the higher-ups wait too long." Already." Wang Xueyi looked at He Ao with a smile, and in a joking tone, urged He Ao to sign quickly.
Wang Xueyi said the above refers to Emperor Jiajing or Yan Song, He Ao couldn't be more clear in his heart.
"Hehe, then it's settled." He Ao smiled, and took a pen to sign his name on the closing statement.
So, only Shi Chaobin remained unsigned.
"Master Shi, you are the last one missing, please." Wang Xueyi put the closing statement in front of Shi Chaobin, put the brush in his hand into Shi Chaobin's hand, and ordered him to sign the closing statement in a strong tone.
After reading the closing statement, Shi Chaobin looked at Wang Xueyi with a mocking face, threw the brush in his hand on the table, and shook his head firmly, "Please forgive me for not agreeing with such a closing statement!"
"Shi Chaobin!" Wang Xueyi was furious, "The court trial is closed, and the court officials will discuss and decide. If there is a disagreement, the presiding judge will decide. This is the rule of my Ming court trial. Today's court trial, we all agree , as the presiding judge, He Shangshu agrees with us, so this name must be signed by you, Shi Chaobin!"
"Master Wang, why do you have to be so grandiose, Master Shi didn't say not to sign it, did you, Master Shi?"
"Master Shi, the minority obeys the majority, so you can sign this name."
"One person counts the short, and many people count the long. Why should Mr. Shi part ways with the public."
"Master Shi, the Holy Majesty is still waiting. If you refuse to sign the name, the Holy Majesty will blame you, and when the time comes, you will have to suffer with us. Why bother?"
…
The officials around the court, you talk to each other, seem to be persuading Shi Chaobin, but in fact they stand with Wang Xueyi and force Shi Chaobin to sign. Under this kind of public opinion, if Shi Chaobin did not sign his name, he would be outraged.
"Master Shi, why bother with everyone because of a death row inmate, please."
Wang Xueyi smiled with satisfaction when he saw this, and put the pen into Shi Chaobin's hand again.
Shi Chaobin took the brush.
Wang Xueyi had a smile on his face, but the smile that had just bloomed on his face withered in the next second.
Because after Shi Chaobin took the brush, he threw it on the table again.
"I, Shi Chaobin, am not for others, but for the justice in my chest." After Shi Chaobin finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the public office.
"The surname is Shi!"
Wang Xueyi was so angry that the court trial closed the case. If there is one less person to sign, the case will not be closed!
Shi Chaobin turned a deaf ear and went straight out.
"Go inside and report to Elder Ge."
Wang Xueyi grabbed a subordinate official next to him and told him to go to the inner hall of the public office to report the unexpected situation to Yan Song and his son.
Next
Wang Xueyi shouted loudly to the officials who were watching, "Stop him, don't let him leave the public office."
Zhu Ping'an has been paying attention to the above situation in the hall, and Zhu Ping'an has also heard Wang Xueyi's closing statement.
I was very anxious in my heart.
Wang Xueyi is too dark! He even tampered with the closing statement and forced that the court officials agreed that Yang Jisheng had committed the crime of misrepresenting the prince's decree, framing the superior, and deceiving the emperor. He also said that the evidence was solid and he should be hanged according to the law!
If the closing statement was just sent to Emperor Jiajing, it was too inductive. After reading such closing statement, Emperor Jiajing was furious, and there was no guarantee what would happen! You know, in history, Emperor Jiajing killed ministers and officials, but he was merciless.
When Zhu Ping'an was very anxious, the scene of Shi Chaobin happened. Seeing that Shi Chaobin did not hesitate to offend the strict party but refused to sign and leave the scene, Zhu Ping'an suddenly thought of a way.
Therefore, when several observer officials stepped forward to intercept Shi Chaobin, Zhu Pingan also stepped forward to "intercept" Shi Chaobin, shouting loudly: "Master Shi, stay, stay, sign your name before leaving."
Such words and deeds are exactly the same as those who blocked Shi Chaobin.
However, taking advantage of the confusion, Zhu Pingan approached Shi Chaobin and said in a low voice, "Master Shi, I am a fellow student of Yang Jisheng. Please listen to me, Master Shi. I know that Master Shi refused to sign for the sake of justice, for fear of righteous people. It was a cruel injustice. However, Master Shi did not sign it, and someone else might sign it for Master Shi. In my opinion, why didn’t Master Shi attach his own opinion at the same time when he signed it, for the reference of the Holy One? ?! So, wouldn’t it be the best of both worlds.”
Zhu Ping'an's suggestion refers to the modern court collegial panel system and arbitration system. When the collegiate panel of a modern court conducts deliberations, if there is a disagreement, the decision should be made according to the opinions of the majority of judges, but the opinions of the minority judges should be recorded in the transcript; the same is true for arbitration, where the different opinions of the minority of arbitrators should be recorded in the transcript.
Zhu Pingan felt a little guilty, knowing that his suggestion would cause Shi Chaobin to offend the Yan Party and suffer Yan Party's revenge, but Shi Chaobin's refusal to sign, leave the venue, and his previous words had completely offended the Yan Party . Since both the left and the right offend the strict party, why not choose a more valuable way to offend.
Zhu Ping'an's suggestion made Shi Chaobin enlightened and his eyes lit up. He couldn't help but look up at Zhu Pingan, nodded his head unobtrusively, and then quickly turned his head away, no longer paying attention to Zhu Pingan.
Zhu Ping'an stepped back in time.
Wang Xueyi and other court officials also came over, criticized Shi Chaobin verbally and in writing, and suppressed Shi Chaobin with rules, official positions, Yan Song, and sage.
The members of the strict party among the observing officials also tried to persuade Shi Chaobin.
Finally, Shi Chaobin was "persuaded" to go back.
"It's getting late, Mr. Shi, it's better to sign it earlier. If you miss the time for sending the letter to the emperor, I won't be able to please you." Wang Xueyi suppressed his anger, and once again gave the brush to Shi Chaobin.
Other court officials also kept persuading.
"Okay, I will sign." This time Shi Chaobin took the brush, looked up at Wang Xueyi, and nodded.
Seeing this, Wang Xueyi smiled with satisfaction, "Oh, wouldn't it be nice if Mr. Shi did this earlier, please, please."
Shi Chaobin stopped talking, dipped the brush in ink, landed on the closing statement, and began to write.
At first Wang Xueyi still had a smile on his face, mocking Shi Chaobin in his heart like the sister in Jiaofang Sili.
Then, the smile on Wang Xueyi's face froze.
Signing a name is only a three-character song. Shi Chaobin seems to have written more than three characters, right? ! Why are you still writing!
Damn it!
Could it be some kind of moth? !
Wang Xueyi felt bad, but it was too late, Shi Chaobin had finished writing.
Wang Xueyi rushed over, only to see the words Shi Chaobin left on the closing statement: "Although Yang Jisheng's words were wrong, there is nothing wrong with his heart. De.——Schaobin”
