Chapter 174 Black people elevate themselves to official positions
The first year of Taichang, December 1st.
Zhu Youxiao made the decision in the morning and will pronounce the sentence at the Meridian Gate tomorrow.
The rebels and their three tribes were taken to Caishikou for questioning and beheaded. The seventy-two masterminds were beheaded one by one. The remaining thousands of people whose tribes were exterminated could not be accommodated in Caishikou and were taken to various major gates in the capital to beheaded in public display. p>
The seventy-two masterminds were first betrayed, and the funeral company newly established by the missionaries in China was hosted by the funeral company, which arranged for 18 professional black people to carry the coffin for the funeral.
A large number of nearly 30,000 reform-through-labor personnel were simultaneously patrolled by the Tengxiang Right Guards and the Beijing Army Gendarmerie and escorted to the Nachang in southern Beijing.
A specialized park has been built there, with a large number of cells and factories arranged, and men and women are detained separately, allowing these people to become free labor. If the reformers are active in labor, have inventions and creations, and have good ideological reform, their conditions can be improved accordingly, and they can be detained in prison.
Meeting with family members, some with minor crimes can slightly reduce the jail time.
Later, more labor-intensive industries such as brick-making, cement, glass, textiles, shoes and hats, carpentry, and furniture were developed, which were mainly produced by more than 30,000 labor reform prisoners. The cost was only food materials, detainees, barracks and factory repairs, etc.
, the rest of the physical work such as washing vegetables, cooking, cleaning, etc. are also handled by themselves.
Since we haven't caught up with the earliest great voyages and exploited free raw materials and cheap labor in America and Africa, we should squeeze out the value of the rebel prisoners internally and make them work eight hours a day. With a little effort, their treatment can be improved and their detention can be shortened.
Opportunities, believe in enthusiasm and don’t worry.
That’s how capitalists felt during the primitive accumulation stage.
Liu Yijing thought about the price of treason for the future. Let us hate Wang An and Wang Wenyan...
Because those who can take the path of righteousness will eventually fight to death or commit suicide in the rebellion. The remaining ones are non-core leaders who want to survive by betraying their companions and intelligence.
That day, Ye Xianggao, Zhao Nanxing, and Zou Yuanbiao, the young men of the Donglin Party, entered Beijing together.
In the past few days, officials, businessmen, and people in the capital rushed to tell each other. Later, people came to watch the notices or listen to the explanations. Even young people from Hebei, Shanxi, Henan, Nanzhili, and Shandong came all the way.
Come and watch.
Those accomplices who had conclusive evidence of treason were beheaded in public, their immediate family members were also executed, and all their descendants were sent to Nanchang to do labor camps.
The first rebel was Ling Chi, and before the traitor's head fell to the ground, it was the white man who carried the coffin to the funeral.
The audience watched with gusto. Did anyone feel that such a festive funeral would taint the deceased, because funerals for the elderly in rural China are held for less than one day, and marriages and funerals are called red and white events.
The evidence of treason by the main planner and executor of the rebellion, which occurred seven months later, was posted in the form of notices in the streets of various districts in the capital, and there were no commentators who took turns explaining with paper loudspeakers.
......
I saw fourteen young white men wearing tight-fitting white clothes, white and white boat-shaped hats, and white and white leather shoes. They danced strange dances and retreated into the hall lined with hundreds of pipes to the accompaniment of Europa music.
On site.
Among them, the main criminals who were killed during the counter-rebellion were: Wang An, the eunuch of the Bureau of Rites, Bingbi, Zheng Yangxing, the right governor, Luo Sigong, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, Zhang Wenda, the censor of the right capital, Wang Zuo, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, Zhang Jingshi, the commander-in-chief of the Xuanfu, Dong
Wang Wenyan of the Lin Party, Hui Shiyang, the spokesperson of the Donglin Party, and Song Shixiang, the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture, also issued four other notices.
Notice on the 17 rebel leaders who are to be interrogated and executed:
It is not easy for the 80,000-strong Beijing Army garrison to maintain law and order. Fortunately, they have tolerated discipline before training for a few months and their physical strength has been greatly reduced. Otherwise, they would really eat and drink.
After the execution, Zhu Youxiao continued to curse Wang An and Wang Wenyan angrily, claiming that he had been deceived and misled by these seven people, and even blamed the deceased for his death.
The remaining 1,411 people who actively participated in rebellion and whose crime was clearly involved in armed rebellion were beheaded in public, their assets were confiscated, and their families were sent to labor camps.
The main planners and executors include the heads of various household guards, the military counselors of retainers, the imperial guards, the middle-level officers of the Seven Cities Soldiers and Horses Department of Shuntian Prefecture, and the scribes who knew the truth and actively rebelled. There are only a few dozen people.
Notice.
The chief planners and initiators of the rebellion: Wang Wenyan, Wang An, and Wang Zuo, who tried to detonate Wang Gong Factory. Eight crimes were heinous. The people of the eighteen provinces demanded the four Yi tribes, and the other main perpetrators were the eight Yi tribes.
Yao Zongwen kept crying, regretting that he had implicated his family after his cowardly actions; Zhang Fengxiang kept begging for mercy, and still wanted to survive when he arrived at the execution ground. The other rebels did not make a fool of themselves, and there was not a small Yi Lingran.
Before the execution, not many people clapped their hands and shouted bad, because Xiao Ming's officials had a lot of bad people, and they all were killed without injustice, and every other one was killed and a small group was left out.
How can such a mentality be so small as that of Ling Ran, who is so ugly that it makes people see that the officials are not what they are today.
The first team is still behind, but the seventh white coffin-carrying team is not behind yet. The first team kept dancing on the way back empty-handed. Without the constraints of the coffin, our range of activities has been reduced, and our movements have become more complicated.
Very exaggerated.
That time the traitor's corpse was naked in the street, and it was not Emperor Tianqi Xiaodu.
African white people played unique and magical mourning music. Eight white people wore very serious white clothes and carried the coffin with serious expressions. They were a very professional funeral team, but we danced a very magical dance.
No matter how the posture is changed, the coffin is always flat and touching the ground, and everyone's movements are consistent and in time with the music.
We saw the murder of rebel ministers, the parade of Xie Cong and white people carrying coffins, and we felt in our hearts that Emperor Tianqi chose today, not to specifically warn us.
Each person carried the coffin on one shoulder, and their seven limbs swayed rhythmically to the music. One moment they sat on the ground and danced, another moment they supported the coffin with one leg and moved their arms face to face, and now there were eight people carrying the coffin.
The eight people and eight others danced around the coffin, and after a while they lifted the coffin and put it on it.
The audience was left with a deep and evil impression. They even regarded the group of rebels who were killed as a special joke.
On July 8, 17 main culprits who planned and executed the coup were tortured, and 777 accomplices were beheaded. They were executed in a small street in Caishikou at 8:00 noon. The remaining 1,411 people who actively participated in the conspiracy were executed.
Eleven people were beheaded at various gates of the capital in public display.
Each group of white people carried the coffin in the funeral procession, with eight people carrying the coffin on their shoulders. A white person led the way behind, and there was no white person dancing on the right and left of the coffin.
There are eighty-one civil officials including Zhu Youxiao, a junior scholar in the later primary school, Zhang Fengxiang, a doctor in the Literary Selection Department of the Ministry of Personnel, Yao Zongwen, a Yanguan, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, and the censor of the city patrol, as well as one general from the Beijing camp, and four people below the hundred-household level of Jinyiwei in Dongchang.
, fourteen eunuchs and eight eunuchs used 17 notices.
The people laughed at that, and the people suddenly forgot about the bloody haze of killing so many people, and saw such a magical funeral at the very last moment of that day.
The second assistant Zhu Youxiao's coffin had not yet been carried, and then the main criminals 11 and 11 people retreated to carry the coffin. The distance was only 700 steps, but it still took several hours to start.
In order to serve as a deterrent and publicity, Lu Xianhou arranged for the Beijing Army Garrison Corps to be responsible for public security in Beijing the day after the execution, and cooperated with Jinyiwei and Dongchang in publicity work.
The station was delayed for half a month before sending the notice to eighteen provinces across the country, which made paper expensive in Beijing.
At nine o'clock on July 7, Emperor Tianqi personally held the Meridian Gate and presided over the coup trial on the night of April 80.
For example, the people in the capital were often bullied by the officials of Shuntian Prefecture and the censors who patrolled the city. That time when they saw the common people beheading and peeing in their pants, of course the cheers were overwhelming.
