The Autumn Decision is a system for the execution of death penalty in the Ming Dynasty. It is generally executed in the autumn and winter. Anyone involved in major cases will be faced with the three judicial departments and go through a cumbersome process to determine the situation to prevent unjust and wrong cases.

The reason why the death penalty was chosen in autumn and winter to kill the deadly prisoners who were determined was that in order to follow the laws of heaven and follow the four seasons. Spring and summer are the seasons of all things being erupted, autumn and winter are the seasons of sanitation, and secondly, autumn and winter are the time of slack farming.

It can make the people who are slack in farming and watch punishment to serve as a warning and deterrent effect.

"The Emperor, the Zhongyong Army led by Admiral Sun, has been taken from the Shuntian Prefecture Prison and has taken out all the prisoners for crimes to the Western City!" Wang Chengen looked serious and bowed slightly to report to Emperor Chongzhen, and he had just learned about the situation.

"Yeah, I got it."

Emperor Chongzhen put down his pen and said calmly: "This execution is of great significance. There must be no accidents. Send someone to tell Luo Yangxing that if anyone dares to attack the court, then he, the commander of the Jinyiwei, should not do it."

"Here!"

Wang Chengen hurriedly bowed and replied.

The Ming Dynasty has always had great preferential treatment for the official group. Unless it commits a serious crime such as treason or angers the saintly power, it will generally not be executed easily.

Dismissed from office, demoted from home, returned home, became a soldier and was sent to the army, and was punished by a stick. This is a routine operation. It is not like Emperor Taizu Gao, but even killing corrupt officials!

For Emperor Chongzhen, if there were not as many court officials in the court and threatening him with coercion, he would not have decided on the Qiu Decision.

However, if he really wants to recover his blood, realize his revival, and get rid of the original tragic trajectory, then the might of Emperor Taizu Gao, he must inherit and kill all the corrupt officials in the world!

"This is to be serious. Be good, some officials and masters in the court have been taken to the execution ground. What crime did they commit?"

"Who knows, there are more than 80 people escorted to the execution ground, but why didn't the executioner see you? Could it be that you will be sentenced to death?"

"No, it's all right? Is this Shuntian Prefecture really so hard? Will the high-ranking officials in the court sit and watch all this?"

In the Xisi Pailou area of ​​the West City, countless people gathered. They put their hands in their sleeves, facing the cold wind of the Shuoshuo, and looked at the scenes in front of them with excitement.

In the Ming Dynasty, which lacks entertainment, observing punishment is often the most important thing to talk about. People with courage will see from the beginning and even give birth to some industries.

The prisoners who were brought by loyal and brave soldiers were in large numbers of Jinyiwei in private military uniforms and wearing goose feather swords, as well as many emotional scholars, and even officials in court wearing casual clothes.

"Sun Sun... You have caused me to be a terrible disaster this time!"

Zhu Chunchen, who was sitting in the stands, looked at the scenes in front of him and frowned and whispered: "Even if you want to execute these prisoners, there is no need to involve all the officials, just kill those lowly merchants!

?You met the emperor earlier, didn’t you persuade him..."

"Duke Chengguo, do you think that if I am angry, the emperor will listen to what I say?"

Sun Chuanting interrupted: "You have seen all the crimes committed by these criminals with your own eyes and heard them with your own ears. In the turmoil of the country, they organized this matter privately and carried out tax resistance, which is to despise me.

The laws and regulations of the Ming Dynasty were, secondly, they ignored the power of the emperor, and thirdly, they used their positions to be corrupt and abuse the law. Any one of them was taken out casually, and they could kill them!"

"You...I..."

Zhu Chunchen was speechless when Sun Chuanting said this for a moment. He really didn't know what to say. If he was not involved, you, Sun Chuanting, would be the best!

Seeing Luo Yangxing's Jinyiwei, one by one, guarding his sword to shock the group of emotional scholars, Zhu Chunchen felt a headache.

"The treacherous ministers are in power and slander the emperor. I, the Ming Dynasty, have the king's laws!? You guys who help the King of War will not have a good end!"

"Sun Chuanting, you are not worthy of being an official, you are a traitor..."

The scholars stopped by the Jinyiwei kept saying unruly, which made the entire court seem messy, and the more than ten criminal officials who were detained by the Loyal and Brave Army were all struggling in battle.

Under the threat of death, no one can die calmly.

Especially these unclean officials have been convicted of various crimes, and their deaths will not be praised, but will only be nailed to the pillar of shame.

Sun Zushou, who was standing with a knife, stared at the surroundings of the court. If something really happened to hit the court, he would lead the loyal and brave army's rebels to suppress it!

"It's already three o'clock in the afternoon, and the execution is executed!"

Sun Chuanting, sitting on the official hat chair, picked up a token after being reminded by the people around him, threw it coldly and shouted in a deep voice.

"It's already three o'clock in the afternoon, execution!! Push the gallows..."

The loyal and brave soldiers who were responsible for custodying prisoners roared one after another.

“Woo woo…”

Although the prisoners who were being carried were stuffed with linen in their mouths, they all roared in panic and struggled, trying to get rid of the shackles and escape from the court.

The onlookers who had gathered in the court before were still quite puzzled. What method was used to execute these criminal prisoners? It turned out to be a hanging.

This is called some brave masters, and they can't help but feel disappointed.

Compared with the bloody killing, halved and lingchi, the hanging was relatively softer, but under the surprise gaze of the onlookers.

"Take off their prison uniforms!"

With a roar, more than 80 prisoners escorted were stripped of all the strong-body sharp men, except for their underwear.

In this cold season, these prisoners who were almost naked were trembling one by one. Many criminal officials were even scared to death in the face of the threat of death.

“List!!”

Under the gaze of the onlookers, the prisoners who were fixed by the ropes were unable to move, but they also received punishment from the other party.

This is the punishment to smash their pride!

"clang……"

Under the sound of gongs and drums, more than ten Jinyiwei faced the courts and shouted loudly: "Jingshuntian Prefecture supervised the important cases, the above-mentioned 87 prisoners, exercising power and money transactions, colluding with each other, and trampling on the laws and regulations of the Ming Dynasty. , Take advantage of the crisis of the country and make a fortune in the country..."

Zhu Chunchen, who was sitting in the stands, saw the scene in front of him, his eyes slightly opened, and he looked at Sun Chuanting in disbelief, stretched out his hand to point at the court in front of him, and wanted to say something, but stopped at his mouth.

How is this hanging different from the past?

"Slander, this is all slander!!"

"Sun Chuanting, you are a scholar, you have done it..."

The scholars who were stopped by the Jinyiwei saw that the criminal officials who were about to be executed were subject to such inhuman treatment. They were all excited and wanted to attack the court.

'Your Majesty, your Majesty, you are going to kill them, and you are all despised.' Sun Chuanting, who was sitting firmly in the official hat chair, looked at the messy court in front of him, and said nothing, but he said in his heart.

Whether it is civil officials or scholars in the Ming Dynasty, what they value most is face and reputation behind them. But after this move is made, it will only attract infamy.

"You corrupt officials are all crazy and have become sons of all. I'm fucking you, I really want to strip you all alive."

"Fuck your mother, it turns out that it was your bastards who were raised by you. They took advantage of the crisis of the country to raise the price of food and salt. My mother was starved to death..."

The people who were watching the fun were just watching the punishment. When they heard the words shouted by the Jinyiwei, they all became excited and wanted to rush forward and kill the corrupt officials, but were stopped by the Jinyiwei.

At this time, two extremes were formed in the court of punishment.

"pour cold water on!!"

In this noisy and chaotic situation, the general in charge of the prison sentence roared. Ben carried a bucket of cold water with a loyal and brave soldier, ran to the gallows with agility, and shivered at the gang and showed fear.

The prisoner of sin threw it over.

“Woo woo…”

"twist!!"

In a cold environment, he was suddenly splashed with cold water. The stress response made the prisoners tense, and the loyal and brave soldiers carrying the wooden barrel took advantage of the opportunity to pull out the stuffed linen.

.

"ah……"

"Well!!"

The prisoners hanging in the air were hung, their eyes protruded outward, and they struggled hard, and the blue veins on their foreheads burst out, making various sounds. This was called the crowd on the law field, and after seeing this scene, they all became quiet.

The prisoners who should have died after more than ten breaths died immediately because of their tense muscles. The deep desire for life in their hearts made them struggle.

Emperor Chongzhen's attitude towards corrupt officials in the Ming Dynasty was tough. Even if he died, he would not let them die too happily!

After seeing the last prisoner who was hanged, Sun Chuanting stood up, looked cold, glanced at the left and right sides of the court, and shouted in a deep voice.

"Any prisoner who was sentenced to be punished will be exposed for ten days. The Zhongyong Army will be responsible for monitoring it. Those who dare to rob the body will be punished for treason for their rebellion and will be executed without forgiveness!"

At this moment, all of them were stunned by the excited scholars and even the officials in court who were watching the sentence in casual manner. Even if they died, they would be completely nailed to the pillar of shame.
Chapter completed!
