The first thousand five hundred and seventy-first chapters are all thanks to the peers
One second the imperial edict had just been read out, and the next second Liu Xi, the prefect of Shaoxing, was taken off his black gauze hat and official uniform on the spot, and was pulled out of the palace in public.
This scene shocked everyone!
Although they were mentally prepared, this scene still exceeded their expectations, and the punishment from the Holy Spirit was heavier than they expected!
They originally thought that Liu Xi might be demoted and fined, and that was about it. But they never expected that Liu Xi would be directly demoted to serve as a civilian! After all, his official career was over!
After Liu Xi was punished, Xu Ziyi on the side suddenly became nervous and clasped his toes. In fact, his situation was almost the same as Liu Xi's. The two of them joined forces to suppress the Japanese, and Liu Xi was demoted to serve as a civilian. He
How could his fate be any better, but he still held on to a glimmer of hope, hoping that the Holy One would take a lenient sentence for the sake of his past meritorious service and allow him to redeem himself for his crimes.
"Xu Ziyi, the Qianhu of Zhenhai Guards, was incompetent in the battle against the Japanese, and his command was incompetent, resulting in heavy casualties on his own side. His carelessness caused the Japanese pirates to escape across the river, and Qian Jing, the censor who returned home, was killed. He failed the emperor's kindness, and his crime cannot be pardoned. He will be punished with fifty sticks.
Cut off the official positions of thousands of families, deprive the hereditary shadow, and reduce them to soldiers!" Chen Hong then read out.
Fifty punishments with a cane! Reduce one’s position to a soldier! Deprive the world of Yin!
Each of these punishments was like a heavy hammer, hitting Xu Ziyi one after another!
"The general ordered us to sin, thank you Lord for your kindness!"
Xu Ziyi fell to his knees with a plop, as if his whole body had no muscles and bones, and his head hit the ground firmly.
The factory guards who were watching eagerly on the side couldn't help but stepped forward and pulled Xu Ziyi up from the ground. He first took off his supervisor's hat and then his official uniform. Then he grabbed his arms and carried him outside the hall, pressing him down on a bench in front of everyone.
, raise the imperial staff and strike.
Bang! Bang! Bang
Ah! Ah! Ah
The sound of the imperial staff hitting the flesh hard and Xu Ziyi's screams clearly reached the ears of everyone in the palace!
The atmosphere in the hall instantly became more depressed and tense.
"Zhang Chang, the magistrate of Changhua County, failed to defend the border and was incompetent in suppressing the Japanese pirates. He was defeated by the Japanese pirates and suffered heavy casualties on his own side. As a result, the Japanese pirates invaded Changhua County and burned, killed and looted wantonly. He failed the emperor's favor and reduced his position to serve the people."
"Dong Da, the magistrate of Yu Qian County, was incompetent in suppressing the Japanese and underestimated the enemy. The Japanese invaders ambushed several people. After injuring several people, he became cowardly and fearful and did not dare to fight. He fled with his troops. He betrayed the emperor's favor. He was punished with a hundred sticks, stripped of his official position, and fled three thousand miles.
, never used"
"Yu Qianxian County Magistrate Ma Long failed to guard the territory well, had no knowledge of people, and failed to supervise the territory. The territory was plundered by Japanese pirates, and the people suffered heavy casualties. He failed the emperor's favor and was fined three years and demoted to the county magistrate on the spot to see the consequences."
Chen Hong stood in front of a group of officials, holding the imperial edict and reading out the imperial edict expressionlessly. After each official's punishment was recited, a factory guard came forward to pick off the black gauze hat, and pulled out the imperial staff to beat the imperial staff.
No wonder you have to identify the person in advance. This person who picks black yarn and uses a court staff will identify the wrong person, so that’s okay!
All the officials felt sad.
"This feeling is so refreshing." When the imperial edict was read out, Chen Hong glanced at the audience from the corner of his eyes and saw the officials standing like quails. He felt extremely satisfied in his heart. This is what I, Chen Hong, pursue.
At this moment, he couldn't help but think of the time when his family was in ruins, his marriage was called off, and he was laughed at by everyone.
At that time, he swore: I would rather bully a white-bearded man than a poor young man. One day, a dragon will wear a phoenix, and I will never wear a hole in my pants! My life, Chen Hong, should not be like this! I want to climb up, I want to get ahead! I want to become a master! I want to make those who laugh at me, humiliate me, and look down on me pay the price with blood! I want to retaliate against them, retaliate against them severely! I want to rise up! I want to change destiny!
Did you see it? I did it. These civil and military officials were trembling in front of me. Life and death, honor and disgrace were all in my hands.
I will do better! Climb higher!
Chen Hong was not satisfied.
Zhu Ping'an listened carefully below and found that the order of punishment was based on the Japanese pirates' marching route in Shangyu. Officials on the marching route of Shaoxing, Changhua, and Yu Qian were named successively.
According to this sequence, the next target should be Chun'an County. Wait, Chun'an County
Isn’t the magistrate of Chun’an County the famous Hai Rui in the future?!
Does that mean Hai Rui has arrived too?!
Zhu Ping'an remembered that he had met Hai Rui on his last trip to Beijing, but it was estimated that Hai Rui didn't remember him, so Zhu Ping'an patrolled everyone without leaving a trace, and sure enough he saw Hai Rui's figure.
In fact, Hai Rui stood out among the crowd!
All the officials present were wearing brand-new official uniforms, but Hai Rui was the only one who was wearing a washed, faded cyan official uniform with three patches on it. Although the stitching was fine, it was still obvious.
Uh, I remembered, the last time I met Hai Rui, his official uniform was like this. I was shocked. Last time, it had two patches.
More than half a year has passed and another patch has been added.
In the crowd, Hai Rui stood upright, like a Beacon Hill. Unlike other officials in Qi Qiran, Hai Rui had a calm, calm face. Even though it was about to be his turn, he still Unmoved by wind and rain, it is as peaceful as a mountain.
"Hairui, Magistrate of Chun'an County," Chen Hong's voice rang out.
Sure enough, it was just as he had guessed. Zhu Ping'an narrowed his eyes slightly, and then listened attentively.
In my impression, Chun'an County was also attacked by Japanese pirates, but the situation was better. Chun'an County was not attacked by Japanese pirates. Chun'an County was unharmed, but the towns below were burned, killed, and looted by Japanese pirates. I don't know what kind of consequences Hai Rui will receive. rewards and punishments.
Chen Hong's voice continued, "Although Hai Rui, the magistrate of Chun'an County, defended Chun'an County, the Japanese bandits surrounded the city and attacked three towns in Chun'an, burning, killing, and looting. Hai Rui, the magistrate of Chun'an County, led the attack, but was attacked head-on by the Japanese bandits. Defeated, we injured more than 100 people and wounded two enemies. We fought and retreated, retreated to the county seat, invited Changhua, and sent troops to Qian and two counties to jointly attack the Japanese pirates. Before the reinforcements from the two counties arrived, the Japanese pirates fled to Xi County. The magistrate of Chun'an fined his salary. One year, the annual performance appraisal was incompetent."
"I, Hai Rui, received the order to thank you for your kindness. However, I failed to annihilate the Japanese in the territory. I owe you the emperor's favor." Hai Rui knelt down to receive the order, with a look of shame on his face.
Fortunately, the penalty was only one year's salary, and the annual assessment was incompetent. When Zhu Ping'an heard this, he couldn't help but feel relieved for Hai Rui.
Although Hai Rui did not perform well against the Japanese in Chun'an County. Although he defended the county seat, he was defeated by the Japanese in three towns. He led his troops to attack and was defeated by the Japanese again. He injured more than a hundred people on his own side. Fortunately, he had the support of his colleagues, and the magistrate of Changhua County Zhang Chang's campaign against Japanese invaders was even worse. Not only was he defeated by Japanese pirates, but they also captured the county seat and Yu Qian County. Dong Da, the magistrate of Yu Qian County, fell into an ambush during the campaign against Japanese invaders. He injured several people and then ran away in fear. He was not even beaten. He didn't dare to fight the Japanese pirates. In comparison, Hai Rui's performance was passable. He defended the county seat and injured two Japanese pirates.
