The two servants were shocked when they heard this. It wasn't until Xiao Qianyue showed the Jinyiwei badge that they really believed it, collected their tickets, and left in disbelief.【】
Xia Xun was also a little surprised. Firstly, he did not expect that the Ming Dynasty also had military courts. Active-duty soldiers were tried by special courts, and local officials had no right to intervene. Secondly, he did not expect that Luo Qianshi would be willing to disclose his identity. In such a case
, will you no longer send me to do dangerous things as an undercover agent in the future?
There is indeed such a provision in the Ming Dynasty law that soldiers who break the law are not subject to trial by the local government. The problem is that no one knows that Xia Xun actually has the identity of a Jin Yiwei. Two servants returned to Yingtianfu Yamen to report the situation to Wang Hongrui and Wang Fuyin.
Overjoyed.
He is already a little bit about to collapse. He is an official, a member of the official faction, and behind the students in the Imperial College is the gentry group. The foundation of the official comes from this group. After ten years of hard work, he became famous all over the world.
Yes, but most of the people who are successful in studying are descendants of the gentry.
Regardless of the brand of his own faction or his friendship with Huang Zicheng and other officials, he should stand on his own side. But to be able to sit in the position of Ying Tianfu Yin, there is no fool who is not trendy and tactful, and now this person
This era is not yet an era when official groups have become rampant and squeezed out warriors from the court. If we really want to make a serious calculation, now the military group in the court, represented by honorable ministers and relatives, is stronger than the officials. If he offends them, what can he do to Wang Hongrui?
Governing Jinling? I'm afraid he won't be able to leave the house and will no longer be able to take care of things.
Just when he was having a headache, two businessmen brought him great news. Yang Xu was a Jinyiwei!
Wang Hongrui smiled happily, as if he was beating gongs, drums, wearing red and colorful banners, and happily handed over the prince to the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army.
Who is the Commander-in-Chief of the Left Army of the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion? He is the third son of the Mountain King, Mr. Xu Zengshou.
The last time Xu Zengshou had an arm wrestling match with Huang Zicheng, all the senior generals of the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion knew about it. Now that Yingtian Mansion has turned over the matter, all colleagues tacitly sent it to Xu Zengshou.
The predecessor of the Governor's Office of the Fifth Army was the Governor's Office, which commanded all affairs. In the 13th year of Hongwu, because the power of the Governor's Office was too great, the prime minister system was abolished. In order to prevent excessive concentration of military power, the Governor's Office was also abolished and changed to
, the left, right, front, and rear five army governor's offices manage the capital and various garrison posts respectively. The five army governor's offices each have a left and right governor, with the first grade.
Xu Zengshou was the Commander-in-Chief of the Left Army in the Military Governor's Office, in charge of the garrison in the capital. In the Yuan Dynasty, the right was in charge, and in the Ming Dynasty, the left was in charge. He was the Left Commander, the top leader of the Military Governor's Office. Xu Zengshou's nose almost ran out of breath when he received the Zhuangzi 1 handed over by the Yin of Yingtian Prefecture.
Wrong, why are these scholars so effeminate? It’s a big deal. Is this going to be over?
General Xu was so angry that he immediately summoned the judge of the military governor's office and asked him to prepare for questioning and to hear the trial himself.
There are military courts in the governor's offices of the five armies, each with one person to judge the affairs of the left and right, and one person to prepare the prosecution documents. However, the military judge is in charge of the five sense officers, and is in charge of the five military prisons. He has the most powerful authority. In fact, to be precise,
Although Xia Xu is a soldier, he is the most special branch of the military. He is a Jinyiwei, and the Jinyiwei has its own internal court.
The North Town Fusi of Jinyiwei is responsible for investigating crimes externally. The South Town Fusi is responsible for the law and discipline of the guard internally. The most feared by outsiders is the North Town Fusi. Once they enter, they will escape death, and the North Town Fusi
What the people are most afraid of is Nanzhen Fusi. When his own people try to deal with his own people, they are just as vicious.
However, Nanzhen Fusi always gives people a feeling that it is not as powerful as Beizhen Fusi. On the one hand, it is because Beizhen Fusi has a good reputation and is indeed more powerful in everyone's opinion. Secondly, after all, Beizhen Fusi is
As a family, there is no major conflict with each other, and it is too late to protect them. Who will fight in the nest all day long? So Nanzhen Fusi has a bad reputation.
In recent years, as the functions of the Jinyiwei Yamen have been shrinking, all the Si Yamen who could be withdrawn have been withdrawn, and all those with connections have been transferred. The entire Jinyiwei command has made the Si Yamen exist in name only, and only Nanzhen Fusi is left.
The next empty shell, there is no one at all, so Yang Xu's case was tried by the Fifth Army Governor's Office. After all, the Jin Yiwei is also one of the 24 guards of the Ming Dynasty's pro-army.
There are five divisions under the Judgment Office of the Military Governor's Mansion. Each division has five officials: Ji Ren, Ji Yi, Ji Li, Ji Zhi, and Ji Xin. They are all of the seventh rank and are in charge of all military prisons. Xia Xun is in the imperial examination.
He was accused of a heinous crime, and all aspects of benevolence, justice, propriety, wisdom, and trust were taken into account. The case was personally investigated by Governor Xu. Wu Busha, the military judge, did not dare to neglect. When he returned, he immediately took Jiren, Jiyi, and Jili.
, Jizhi, and the chief officers of the fifth division of Jixin were all called, and the first words they said were: "This case was personally ordered by the Grand Governor..."
Benevolence, justice, propriety, wisdom and trust immediately nodded in unison, understanding.
Yang Chong stood in the lobby, a little confused.
He has seen and gone to court, but he has never been to a military court.
The people standing around were not the officers in red and black official uniforms and holding water and fire sticks on their hands, but a group of Qiu Baye wearing armor, knives hanging from their ribs, holding guns, and so murderous that one's eyelids would jump at the same time.
Further up, the layout is quite different from that of an official's courtroom. In the spacious and bright courtroom, there are actually five public cases, five sets of arrows, and five sets of gavels arranged in a row. There are people sitting behind each table.
A general with a helmet on his head, a beard of the same color, and two staring eyes, like a man-eating tiger.
Behind them, there is another koan. Behind the koan, there is also a general sitting. This general's koan is still not the final seat of the judge. Behind him, there is a huge screen with a tiger descending from the mountain. A screen with a tiger descending from the mountain.
Below, three steps up, there is a koan, but there is no one sitting behind the koan.
Wu Busha, the military judge, seemed to have a spring under his butt. He looked like he couldn't sit still. He kept asking the principal to whisper, but he didn't announce his promotion. It turned out that Xu Zengshou had said that he would hear the trial in person today.
After all the preparations were made, Wu Busha sent someone to call for him, but Xu Zengshou didn't know why he was delayed, and he hasn't come yet.
Because the plaintiff in this case was a civilian and the defendant was a military officer, Yingtian Mansion sent two small officials to hear the trial. In front of this gang of Qiu Baye, the two small officials had no seats and stood together with those warriors with puffy chests and belly.
I felt uncomfortable, so I hid aside and got bored waiting.
Xia Xun and Yang Chong, who were facing off for the first time, both stood in the hall, looking at each other coldly. The witnesses brought by both sides were waiting outside the second hall, waiting to be summoned. Next, there were the groups of relatives and friends of both sides, Peng Ziqi and Manager Xiao.
, Xiaodi and other relatives, as well as Xie Yufei, who was disguised as a fruit seller, were waiting outside the military camp on the left side. On the right side were the Yang clan members who were listening to the news and the students of the Imperial Academy who were raising their arms and shouting slogans.
"Where is the Grand Governor? Why haven't you come yet? You've been doing this for a long time. Are you going to ask about the case today?"
Wu Busha was in charge of the Fifth Army Prison. He usually put on a stinky face when he met everyone, as if someone owed him a few ounces of money and had not paid back. But at this moment, he was so anxious that he was sweating all over and looked at the little boy with a wry smile on his face.
The school asked.
"Come on, come on," another primary school student ran over and said in a low voice: "The governor has arrived, sir, you can ascend to the throne."
Wu Busha turned his head and saw Governor Xu, wearing a plain robe, walking out from behind the screen. As he walked, he blew his beard and glared at the person behind the screen. He was gesturing with his hands, not knowing who he was greeting.
Wu Busha said heartily: "The Governor is hearing the trial, that's enough. Is there anyone else behind? There are people behind the Governor who are hearing the trial... Then it's probably only the current emperor, right? But the Governor's expression doesn't look like that, how come he doesn't look like that?
Is it like coaxing a child?"
Xu Zengshou sat down under the picture of a tiger descending the mountain. When he saw Wu Busha turning his head to look at him in a daze, he immediately glared at him.
He shot and shouted: "Raise the account!"
This "frightening tiger's daring" is a gavel wood, but the people who use it are different. The patterns carved on it, the size of the gavel wood, and the names are also different. The giver wood used by the emperor is called "zhenshanhe", and the giver tree used by the queen is called "Jingtang wood".
The wood is called "Fengxia", the awakening wood used by the prime minister is called "Zuochangang", the awakening wood used by the generals is called "Jingtangmu", and the awakening wood used by other officials is called "Jingtang wood".
Wu Busha slapped the "Shocking Tiger" and heard a "boom" sound. Then the military drum shook like thunder. All the soldiers turned to the hall in unison, their armor leaves clattered for a while, and they all clasped their fists.
, with a sonorous and powerful salute to the military: "See the Grand Governor, see the Chief Judge!" At the same time, the guards in the hall all slapped the barrels of their guns, and with enough energy in their Dantian, they shouted: "Kill!"
Xia Xun and Yang Chong were both startled. Isn't this powerful shouting too scary?
The following procedure is not much different from an ordinary yamen investigation. The same is true of questioning the plaintiff first and then the defendant, each presenting evidence and arguing with each other.
Yang Chong spoke eloquently: "The Master said: Filial piety to a husband begins with serving relatives, serving the king, and finally establishing oneself. "The Book of Rites" says: "It is the way of being close to each other. To be close to relatives is to respect the ancestors. To respect the ancestors is to respect the clan.
, Respect the clan, so collect the clan." Another sage, Zhang Zaiyou, said: To manage the people of the world, to collect the clan, to strengthen the customs, and to make people not forget their roots, it is necessary to understand the genealogy of the family and the rules of establishing the clan. But what Yang Xu did was totally unreasonable.
The intention of this harmonious clan..."
Benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trust. The five bearded men have tried many cases of violating military discipline, but they have never heard of so many people saying, "Book of Rites", "Sages", saying, which made them yawn continuously, but there was still a governor sitting behind them.
Be able to endure with tears in your eyes.
After Yang Chong finished speaking, Wu Busha plucked his ears and asked, "Then how did your Yang family deal with it?"
Yang Chong said sternly: "Such an unkind, unfaithful and unfilial person will naturally be expelled from the sect. His parents have no way of educating their children, so they are expelled together and moved to their ancestral graves!"
Wu Busha asked: "Have these things been done?"
Yang Chong said proudly: "This is natural. Our Yang family has asked us to come out of the clan rules and punish them."
Wu Busha spread his hands and said with a blank look on his face: "Isn't it over now? The flies crawled on the horse's tail and flew away. From now on, when your father and mother get married, everyone takes care of themselves. Why are you here?
