Chapter 239: Collecting the net (3)

A group of ordinary people arrested a court official and directly arrested him into the capital!

This kind of thing is unheard of, and it has never been thought of in all dynasties, but it happened in the Ming Dynasty.

In the carriage, the old man was obviously stunned.

In an official dynasty, even if the people have some power given by the king, they are mostly used to protect themselves. Few people have great courage and perseverance, and they really have direct conflicts with the officials.

If you arrest an official, you will offend a class.

There is no emperor in the world, but there are ten thousand years of officials. The people are powerful for a while, but they leave endless disasters. It should be noted that in the future, if the people who exercise power make mistakes, they will never be reborn. Even if they can do something or not, officials can destroy the people's families.

This is exactly what the so-called people do not fight with officials!

Grandson, what do you think? The old man smiled and asked.

Zhu Yunxiu thought about it, it was too late, let the Dali Temple be imprisoned first, and the Jinyiwei should take care of it together. Let’s talk about it tomorrow. This time, the imperial examination is different from the previous time, and it must be a hot topic in the world. In this case, it must be more open and upright!

Just now, he heard that someone had come to Beijing to file a lawsuit against the emperor, and he was also shocked. But then he heard the whole story, and while he was amused, he felt a little more serious.

There are always places in the world where the sun cannot shine, and there are always unfair things in the world. Those villagers who sacrifice their lives to do things that were equivalent to rebellion in the past must be treated with caution.

Well, take the Jinyiwei of Dali Temple to take care of it! The old man said lightly, the people who come to Beijing should not be negligent. They should give tea and meals, and the place where they live must be clean!

The grandson obeyed the order! Zhu Yunxi smiled.

In fact, being an official in the Ming Dynasty was really a dangerous job. In the early years, the Hu Li case, the empty seal case, and the old man killed countless people under the butcher's knife. Before many court officials went to court, they were so scared that they explained their funerals to their families.

If Zhu Yun's sudden appearance and made the Lan Yu case invisible, the old man knew that his grandson could suppress these ministers, but he was afraid that the old man would continue to wave his butcher's butcher's knife would continue to wield.

However, the old man stopped killing people, had a better temper, and officials did not dare to be arrogant. Last year's Hangzhou Kowtou case was a clear proof that hundreds of officials had their heads landed, and the skins of several officials in Yingtian Mansion were made into mattresses and put on official chairs.

There was another incident today. The villagers arrested officials and directly arrested them in the capital with the imperial edict. If this matter became the norm, would the officials of the Ming Dynasty still have a way out?

The north is better, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, the people are slightly dull and respect the government. However, there are many scholars in the south and the people know a lot, so it is quite a headache for those who become officials.

At the beginning, when the great edict was formulated, a minister wrote a letter.

There are many unruly people in the world. If there is any dissatisfaction, they will go to Beijing to file a complaint. Wouldn’t it be a mess of the national laws and regulations?

If the ministers are the world, and if the people are allowed to hold officials, they will easily cause trouble. In the long run, the king, minister, and the people will be like enemies!

The unreasonable people in the countryside are unreasonable. Your Majesty believes and listens to it, which may hurt the hearts of the scholars in the world!

In response to this, the old man's answer was very direct. The great edict said that if the people sued the official, three generations of the family would behead him. I think that any troublemaker would be so mean that he would be so mean that he would be falsely accused of his family's heads regardless of his family's food?

Furthermore, if the world's communication is smooth and the people have some places to seek justice, they will never come to me!

The old man is the one who knows the hearts of the people and the hearts of the officials in the world.

Some people later said that although Emperor Hongwu was a complete man, he was definitely not a traitor who was very happy to be praised by the prosperous times, and made all officials praise him and the people suffered!

This is also what the literati and doctors hate the old man the most hundreds of years later.

He gave the people the power to restrict and restrict officials that they had never had before, and legalized the people's resistance to injustice, so that officials no longer stand high or are no longer powerful.

The next day, before dawn, Zhu Yunxiu and the old man had already stood up.

It is a little cool in the morning in autumn and there is fog lingering.

In Jinshen Hall, surrounded by eunuchs of the twelve prisons, the two changed their court robes. Then in Fengtian Hall, the imperial throne slowly rose to the tent, revealing the majestic dragon throne. The old man and Zhu Yunqiu slowly sat down with the sound of the whip of the Han general.

I, please, long live my emperor and thousand years of the crown prince!

On the imperial throne, Zhu Yunxiu looked at the ministers who were kneeling three times and kowtowed nine times from the hall to the square outside, raised their hands slightly, and said, "The Lords are calm!"

The ministers behind Ping stood up solemnly. I believe they had heard that someone had come to Beijing to file a complaint. So they all kept silent and waited for the change.

Last night, we heard that someone went to Beijing to file a lawsuit against the emperor. This time, we directly arrested the officials who harmed the people! The old man's voice was low, which made people feel cold. All day long, you would report good news to us but not bad news, thinking that the world is peaceful and the people live and work in peace. How about it, is it exposed?

Speaking of this, he snorted heavily. Some of you think we are too mean to you, but even if we are so mean, there will still be grievances in the world!

The old man's voice echoed in the hall, and the ministers' heads lowered.

Zhu Yunqiu heard some different meanings from the old man's words.

Although the people sued the official, the old man said it was wronged without the review of Dali Temple. It must have been that last night, the Jinyiwei had secretly reported the whole story to the old man.

Someone is going to be unlucky again! Zhu Yunxiu said in his heart.

Where is the Chief of Yingtian Prefecture? After the old man finished speaking, Zhu Yunxiu said, "Talking the whole story of the incident!"

In the third row of civil officials, Cai Ying, the head of Yingtian Prefecture, immediately stepped out and knelt down to report to His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Grand Prince. Yesterday evening, the inspector of the archery and horse outside the city reported that Chen Shou, a villager from Changshu, tied up local county officials and wanted to go to Beijing to file a complaint and complain about the crimes of the disabled people.

I did not dare to neglect my bride and immediately ordered the archers and horse soldiers to take Chen Shou, his sons, nephews and nephews into the city, and report to Your Majesty and Your Highness to wait for the Holy Tribunal!

This man's ex was made into a human skin mattress because he stopped the people from complaining. Naturally, he did not dare to hide anything now.

Where is the commander of the Dali Temple, the Jinyiwei? Zhu Yunxi asked again, "The emperor's grandfather's order was ordered last night, and he was in charge of the inquiries, and there was a documentary document!"

He Guangyi, the commander of the Jinyiwei, held a file with both hands and knelt down and said, "Last night, I asked a few simple questions, and the whole story is all here. Please, Your Majesty, the Holy One!

Present!

After Zhu Yunyu finished speaking, Park Bucheng walked over and took the document and quickly delivered it from the side of the imperial stairs.

Grandpa Emperor, you have a look! Zhu Yunxiu took it and said to the old man.

The old man still looked at the ministers, with a bad expression and waved his hand, "We've seen it, look at it." As he said, he pointed at the ministers and read it to them!"

Yes! Zhu Yunxiu bowed and opened the file to recite the story. Chen Shou, a commoner, nicknamed Chen Liu. People from Chenjia Village in Changshu like guns and sticks, and have a little courage. They have 28 acres of land and two cows. They are patrolling the village archers!

This person's identity is equivalent to a village joint defenseman in later generations.

Last autumn, the water rose in Changshu. The emperor issued an order that after the flood receded, the government organized the people to open up land. The fields on the riverside were handed over to the people to farm.

Zhu Yunqiu knew about this. The government organized the people to manage the rivers, but the government did not want to pay for the money and grain. Therefore, the people who promised to provide the efforts to make the land reclaimed on the river beach after the river water faded, and the land reclaimed on the river beach was handed over to the people to cultivate. In the first five years, no grain tax was collected.

I have two thousand people in Chenjia Village and worked hard on the river for two months. It is logical that it should be divided into 786 mu of paddy fields. However, the county officials have only obtained 120 mu of Chenjia Village, and it is also a land that is prone to flooding along the river!

After reading this, Zhu Yunfeng frowned.

The land on the river beach is a good land. However, if it is close to the river beach, it will inevitably be flooded once it is watered.

The people in Chenjia Village were so angry that they asked Caomin to take the lead in going to the county government to ask for a clear understanding. Unexpectedly, the county magistrate said that it was from Xujia Village, a neighboring village, who was doing more than our Chenjia Village, so he should give them the land!

But in the two months on the river, the Xu family only had more than 100 people, and they were all old and weak. How could our Chen family have done it? After two months of hard work, many young people were sick, and they didn’t know how much damage their farm tools were.

The grass people and the villagers argued with reason. But the men in the county said that the fields on the river beach were originally a land without a home, and that the court gave them all kindness, so there was no reason to be picky about them. They also said that we didn’t know what to do and how to be picky!

Later, the villain spent money to ask someone to inquire in the county. There was a junior in the Xu family who was the same year as the county magistrate, and he privately gave the county magistrate 300 taels of silver. The official gave the land that should have been given to the Chen family to him and the Xu family.

The people were not convinced, but the officials said that the things that the government decided were kingly laws and could not be changed.

He also said that if we are not convinced, we will not even have that hundred acres of land. If we do not listen to the name of the government, we will gather people to rebel and disobey the government!

In a fit of anger, the Caomin drank some wine with his nephews and nephews, and then followed the emperor's great edict to enter the county government office and tied up the county magistrate.

Afterwards, the grass-roots were also a little scared! But now that things have come to this, it is useless to be afraid.

Thousands of villagers in Chenjia Village cannot be bullied, and everything is more important than just a word of rationality! A person with a rough man is the most silly. If the government is not public, who will still contribute to the government in the future!

After reading it, there was a silence in the hall.

Maybe in the eyes of these people, it is just a matter of sesame, and they don’t agree. In the past dynasties, the people will do whatever they say. Officials are the king’s law, so how can they care about the people’s principles?

Zhu Yunxiu sneered, shook the file in his hand, slowly walked down the imperial stairs, looked at the ministers, and said, the day before yesterday, the emperor's grandfather told the Gu that the people of the world would be full, and the task was a long way to go, not a matter of one day or one night! The most urgent thing for us, now is to give a good foundation for future generations and make the politics of the Ming Dynasty clear!

But look at this file? Zhu Yunxi suddenly said loudly, "What an official said is the king's law? What an excellent one gives you is as much as you want?" He is so arrogant and domineering. If the people suffer grievances, they don't even say it. If they say it, they are troublemakers, and if they say it, they are guilty."

The fields they have cultivated through sweat, they can give to whoever they want? They are really a great official power!

I am really not afraid of death if I use the people’s hard work and sweat for personal gain!

Suddenly, the old man opened his mouth on the dragon throne and brought Chen Shou up!

(In this case, the characters and stories are all historical prototypes!)

It’s so coquettish to see Teacher Zhang Lu explain.

Alas, alas!

Hehe, hehe!
