With the support of two young young people, an old woman walked out of the car tremblingly. The old woman looked ordinary. She was already very old and she shrank into a ball. She was as thin as a hair, holding a longevity stick, proving that
She is over seventy years old and has won many honors, such as not having to salute the emperor, the oncoming car must get off the car and wait for her, etc.
She walked towards Houde Hall tremblingly, and there were people leading her along the way. The closest servants were extremely polite to her. The closest servants and the palace maids along the way showed great curiosity about her and couldn't help but look at her.
The two young young people following her seemed a little proud. Even after entering the palace, there was no fear on their faces. They looked around curiously, and even looked at the doctors.
Soon, the old woman walked into the Houde Hall with the support of the two. The two young people no longer dared to raise their heads and look directly. The old woman struggled to take off from their hands, and then was extremely respectful.
He gave a big gift to the direction where the emperor was, and almost all his body was stuck to the ground.
Lu Lu was shocked and hurriedly looked at Liu Chang's face.
This is an old man holding a longevity stick. Emperor Gao didn't dare to let such people worship the grand ceremony. If this scene was spread, it would be great. In the Han Dynasty who governed the country with filial piety and ruled the world with etiquette, the emperor must take the lead in respecting it.
The old man takes the lead in becoming a filial son.
But Liu Chang didn't seem to notice Lu Lu on the side, he was still looking at the old woman in front of him.
"I pay homage to your Majesty!!"
"I respectfully ask Your Majesty if you are safe?"
"I wish you my Majesty again!"
The old woman bowed three times in a row, and the younger generation behind her even more worshipped. Liu Chang still said nothing and looked at her coldly. Lu Lu could no longer help it, so he had to clear his throat and whisper.
Remind: "Your Majesty... If you have a minister, you should answer."
"Oh, I'm fine, what about you, old guy, are you fine? Are you not dead yet?"
Lu Lu's face changed drastically, and the two young young people behind the old woman were even more furious and were about to get up, but the old woman quickly stopped him. The old woman looked frightened and said hurriedly: "I am safe, thank you for your care... I will discipline you.
Strictly, the grandson committed such a serious crime, which actually put Your Majesty in danger. I deserve to die! I deserve to die!!"
This old woman is very famous in the Han Dynasty. She is Xu Fu, the Marquis of Mingxiting, who was personally enthroned by Emperor Gao. She is from Wen County, Hanoi. Because she is very good at seeing other people's faces, she is called the world's number one female face.
It was just that when he met Emperor Gao, he was a little older, otherwise he would probably become Liu Chang's "mother". She has a very famous reputation in the Han Dynasty. Many nobles beg her to see her or her children.
Give an evaluation.
On another historical line, she looked at the concubine of Wei King Wei Bao and thought that the concubine would give birth to a son of emperor. Wei Bao was very happy and decided to believe in this female prime minister. She immediately rebelled and wanted to attack several ordinary generals around her.
, for example, Han Xin, Cao Shen, etc., then there was nothing.
Wei Bao's concubine was also sent to Emperor Gao as a spoil. Her name was Bo Ji, and her son born to Emperor Gao was Liu Heng... Poor Wei Bao.
Later, she looked at Zhou Yafu's majesty again, saying that he became a general and a prime minister eight years later, and starved to death nine years later. In the end, Zhou Yafu also died as she said.
As for why she appears in front of Liu Chang, it is because her grandson, her grandson, is the tycoon Guo Jie of Longxi. This man has done all kinds of evil in various places, and has traveled around with the bandits, killing more than 300 lives.
The murderer.
Guo Jie always committed crimes when he was very young, but he could avoid punishment every time because his mother, Tinghou, who had made friends with countless powerful people.
In history, it was only after Xu Fu died that Guo Jie changed his character and began to actively create the reputation of "a prodigal son turning back" for himself, because there are no one who can protect him.
This is also the reason why Chang Liu was very rude to Xu Wei. Her grandson killed hundreds of lives. As a shelter, Xu Wei could not escape this crime!
Xu Fu was obviously a very smart person. After her grandson was arrested, she already understood that her grandson could not be saved. In fact, she no longer looked at people after the Wu Zui case.
Because at that time, His Majesty had already shown his dislike of the alchemist and the ministers. The last emperor who hated the alchemist so much was called Ying Zheng. Compared to the way Ying Zheng dealt with the alchemist, the current emperor was just exiled, which is already very tolerant.
.
Xu Fu was a person who had experienced the era of killing alchemists and murdering monks. She knew what she could do and what she could not do.
However, just as she was trying her best to keep a low profile, her unscrupulous grandson pulled her off the horse.
She knew that it would be useless to ask anyone at this time, so she could only lower her attitude and pay homage to the emperor with such an old and short-lived image. She was at home on weekdays, and this one was silk brocade, mixed with her body.
There are all kinds of gold, silver and jewelry, holding a mahogany life stick, and there are hundreds of disciples accompanying you. They are vast, with countless homes and vast houses.
She just hopes that this emperor can give him a little mercy on his age and not involve himself too... She is so old, and the emperor who governs the country with filial piety should not be too rude to him, right?
However, the emperor's first words broke her fantasy.
This is not a benevolent man...
Xu Fu hurriedly begged for mercy, his face was particularly sad, and even shed tears. The two young young men behind her were also very powerful, sobbing with their heads down, while Liu Chang was tall and big, standing in front of them, tilting his head up, his face was not kind.
There is a fierce look in his eyes. No matter how you look at this scene, it is a pitiful old man who has been bullied by a tyrant who bullies the weak.
"If it were my grandson, Your Majesty would not go to Longxi, nor would he encounter such danger. This is my fault. Please order me to be executed. My crime can only be cleansed by death!!
"
In addition to psychology, these people who are accustomed to have good acting skills.
The doctors on duty around him were a little reluctant at this moment. Lu Lu frowned, walked to Liu Chang's side a few steps, and whispered: "Your Majesty, this man is old, and has a wide connection. He often helps the people on weekdays.
, It has a very good reputation among the people. If you force her to death like this, it would be inappropriate! It hurts Your Majesty's reputation..."
Liu Changshen agreed, looked at Lu Lu with approval, nodded, and said loudly:
"You are right! You are worthy of being my close servant. It is inappropriate to kill one of hers like this. How can you be worthy of so many people who have been murdered? It should be punished by the clan!"
"Just do as you said! Come here, kill their entire family!"
Xu Fu was paralyzed and looked at the emperor weakly. He wanted to say something, but he didn't dare. Because there was a more cruel criminal law than the clan's punishment, she only looked at Lu Lu in the end, her eyes full of grief and anger.
.
Lu Lu grew up and his mouth was stunned for a long time.
Seeing the soldiers who were like tigers and wolves dragging them away, Lu Lu didn't react, but Liu Chang still cursed: "Then Guo Jie committed crimes many times in Hanoi, but he killed someone less than fifteen, because
This old monster never asked for any crime until he destroyed a household, fearing to be implicated, began to flee and commit crimes, dig other people's graves everywhere, killing other people's wife and daughter, killing past merchants, and not venting anger when he was lingering. This old monster was not enough to vent his anger.
She actually protects her grandson for many years. She should be punished first, then behead her head and then cut her head in half... and then she pulled her to Shangfang and exploded her!"
Lu Lu's mouth trembled for a moment, and he grabbed Liu Chang's hand suddenly, his eyes full of fear.
"No! Your Majesty! No!!"
"If you do what, the ministers will really be willing to persuade them with death!!"
Liu Chang took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart, "I know... I am a benevolent and righteous king, not Jie and Zhou, how can I do this?"
"When I said that, I have to blame the old fool for giving a lie to a lie and letting those soldiers who fight to the death think? That is, the old fool is gone, otherwise I must..."
Liu Chang complained for a long time, and finally looked at Lu Lu with a difficult face and asked proudly: "How did I deal with it just now? If you use your mouth to execute me, I will not hurt my reputation!"
"Yes... I'm just the wounded minister... Your Majesty is wise..."
"Lu, this reputation is all false, you don't have to care so much. I am eliminating harm to the people. The reason why the people respect her is because they don't know
If she knows what her grandson did, they will come to thank you instead of hating you!"
Lu Lu couldn't say anything, and His Majesty said so, so he had to admit it.
However, it was not as easy as Liu Chang thought to deal with Xu Fu's matter.
The ministers were running around because of this incident. They didn't want this female minister to be executed like this. There are many reasons. What age is it, if you are not a legitimate grandson, you will not die if you are a crime. In fact, it is because of this female minister.
There are too many friends, and they seem to be worried that the female ostentatious incident will eventually become a case like a martial crime, which once again became an excuse for His Majesty, and involved a large number of powerful people. The powerful people care very much about this.
In addition to this reason, more people oppose it purely for the sake of opposition.
Jia Yi's mercantilism is being promoted, which has aroused opposition from many domestic ministers. They seized every opportunity and did not miss any opportunity to persuade the emperor. They believed that merchants would sooner or later destroy the Han Dynasty, and that only by continuing to follow the path of mercantilism can we
Let the Han Dynasty last for a long time, and they will also use everything in the near future to defeat their enemies. They dare not regard Liu Chang as their enemy, but the ministers around Liu Chang are good examples.
At the court meeting the next day, the temple was filled with gunpowder.
The first person to get up was Feng Chang Lu Jia.
Lu Jia was not involved with Xu Fu, he was just considering etiquette and law.
"Your Majesty, the Book of Rites says: Eighty or ninety days, seven years of mourning, mourning and mourning, even if you are guilty, you will not be punished!"
"Zhou Li said: Three priests, three friends, three amnesty, and three amnesty methods to commend four people to listen to prison lawsuits. The so-called amnesty, one amnesty is called young and weak, and a young child under ten years old, and another amnesty is old and over 60 years old.
The old man, who was foolish after three forgiveness, did not know about human disabilities!"
"According to the tyranny of Qin, a law was established that children under the age of ten will not be punished, and those who are over 60 years old will not be punished. As long as they do not kill people with their own hands, they will be pardoned!"
"When the Empress Dowager was in charge of politics, he issued a two-year law, which contained the law. The law stipulates: If the wife of a commoner, a wife of a commoner and a man who is over 70 years old, if he is not seventeen years old, he will be punished and punished, and he will be punished!"
"When Emperor Gao was reigned, he mentioned this matter many times. When King Daoyi of Qi was still alive, an old man above 600-year-old in Qi State hired a murderer and should be executed. Later, the ministers negotiated and believed that his Ji Tai was
He had never committed suicide, so he was not punished with a halved punishment, shaved his beard and hair…”
"Now you are going to execute Xu Fu. First, she complies with the provisions of the two-year law that she was over 70 years old. Second, she did not kill someone with her own hands. I think she could forgive her death penalty..."
Lu Jia did not speak nonsense, but since Zhou Dynasty, China has officially established amnesty laws for three types of people, including children, the elderly, and the disabled. This is the most advanced and humane form of law in the world.
The inheritance of traditional generations, even the Qin State, which is famous for its tyranny, has inherited this law and improved it. Children cannot be punished, but the children's parents will suffer the same punishment and cannot be punished by the elderly, but the elderly
The child must suffer for him and cannot punish the disabled, but his caregivers must be punished.
The Han Dynasty also inherited it.
When Liu Chang heard Lu Jia's words, hesitated. Speaking of which, this law cannot be considered wrong. Zhang Shizhi always said that the law cannot be used to vent his anger, but he remembered those hundreds of lives.
, Liu Chang couldn't let go.
"Since it is the law formulated by my mother, of course I will obey it."
After Liu Chang said this, the ministers were immediately overjoyed.
Lu Jia was also full of confidence. He even moved out the empress dowager. The only one who could defeat the emperor was the empress dowager.
Liu Chang then said, "But I am going to add another one to this law!"
"Zhang Shizhi!!"
Zhang Shizhi hurriedly stood up and looked at the emperor. Chang Liu waved his hand and said, "Add one, it means that the crime is extremely serious, and there are also exceptions for the victims with three pardons!!"
Lu Jia was shocked and was about to speak, but Liu Chang looked at him coldly and asked back, "The hundreds of people killed by Guo Jie are also
There are children, old people over 70 years old, and even disabled people. They hit him and were killed by him because they couldn't hear him. How should those people be counted?! Such crimes are necessary
Get pardoned?! I don't agree!! "
"Your Majesty!! This is Guo Jie's evil. What does it have to do with his grandmother?! This is unkind!"
"I am a barbarian, and I don't know benevolence! Later generations should not be like me!"
Liu Changda waved his hand and ignored Lu Jia. Lu Jia widened his eyes and wanted to speak but stopped. In the end, he just closed his eyes in pain, and he had no choice.
But there is still a minister who is not giving up. An official from the Censor's Office stood up. The man looked a little unconfident. His family was very close to Xu Fu on weekdays and sent a lot of money every year to let her be the child.
Read the photos and comments to gain fame... In this era, fame is still very useful. If something happened to Xu Fu, they could not sit still.
The man looked at the emperor carefully and said, "Your Majesty... I think it is too much to kill the clan because of the crime of being a thief. People in the world may mistakenly think that Your Majesty was venting his anger with them because of the earth.
It is better to hurt Your Majesty's prestige than to cure the evil spirits of the people of the world only, pardon others, and to calm the hearts of the people of the world..."
Liu Chang suddenly laughed, "Famous?"
"Earth movement is a natural disaster. I don't blame anyone, but hundreds of lives died, but it would be a bit too much to let Guo Jie pay for his life alone."
"But it was Guo Jie who killed people, and these people did not participate."
"I didn't participate, but when Guo Jie gave the old demon every year, the old demon was covered in blood, and she could enjoy it? His tribe relied on his reputation and harmed the people everywhere.
Have you ever been involved? When her descendants relied on her connections to commit crimes, have they ever thought about it? She pleaded with bribes several times to rescue her grandson. She was innocent at that time? "
Chang Liu was obviously extremely angry.
But the official did not give in, but continued to say, "Renity is forgiving. Now that His Majesty personally avenges the victims, they must be able to forgive them. On the contrary, if he killed an old woman for them, he would probably give in.
Their souls are uneasy…”
"oh??"
Liu Chang was stunned and then laughed again.
"What you said makes sense. Come on, come on, come on."
Lu Lu was shocked, but the official walked to Liu Chang with a smile. Liu Chang ignored the etiquette and directly hugged his shoulders and asked seriously: "Now I am a little hesitant, those victims
Now that I am gone, if I kill so many people for them, if they are uneasy, then wouldn’t I have committed a serious crime?”
"No, Your Majesty avenges them. This is Daren, but just killing the evil one is..."
"But I'm still curious about what those victims will think. Let's do this, you can go there for me..."
"ah??"
"You go to these victims on my behalf, and help me ask them what they think, and see if they are willing to pardon these sinners. If they are willing, you tell me, if they are not willing, then there is no need to
Come and disturb me...
The official was stunned for a long time, and finally realized his reaction, his whole body became soft and he was so scared that he collapsed in front of Liu Chang.
"Your Majesty!! I am guilty!! Your Majesty!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
His appearance was even more frightened than Xu Fu, and he kept kowtowing.
However, with a wave of Liu Chang's hand, the soldiers rushed up and took him away. The man was still begging for mercy.
Liu Chang just smiled and said goodbye to him.
"Tell them for me, come to me if you have any dissatisfaction, and I will stand up for them!"
