The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms

Earlier, when Xun Zhen traveled to Liangqi County, Xu Fu discovered a suspicious case in Liangqi County's past year's Yuan Shu, that is, the past year's judicial case file, that is, "Liangqi County thief Cao certain official. In the case of preparing for a thief to travel, but he disappeared in Gongliangting. At that time, Xun Zhen believed that "the county official was killed and the county temple did not ask about it, there must be a major case", and ordered Chen Dao "to investigate and investigate the matter thoroughly. ".

Chen Dao imitated Xun Zhen in Liangqi County. He first fully assisted Pin and He Yi to clear the gang of thieves in the county, and established his prestige in Liangqi through "military achievements". Later, as he said to Xun Zhen, using those "There are problems, including almost all the Cao in the county, and involving a number of big names in the county" case book, or attack, or win, or divide, respectively pack up, win over a group of officials and people, and take the power of Liangqi County. It took him a month and a half to have it firmly in his hands. Then, he began to investigate the case secretly while focusing his energy on implementing the agricultural decrees issued by Xun Zhen.

Finally yesterday, the case was thoroughly investigated.

The memorial he sent today is what he found out.

Sure enough, as Xun Zhen expected, there was another hidden story behind the case.

The thief Cao, the thief who was killed, was surnamed Wang, and in the roster, when he traveled to Gongliangting, there was a prison history with him. That is equivalent to the decision of Cao Shi, Chen Dao asked from this prison history, Wang Shu was not actually killed by Gongliangting's thief, but by Gongliangting's pavilion chief.

Chen Dao had the pavilion chief of Gongliang Pavilion quietly arrested and interrogated in the county.

The pavilion chief admitted the murder, and explained that he was instructed to do so by a guest from the Zhao family in Ye County.

Chen Dao then asked him again: Why did the Zhao family in Ye County want to kill Wang Shu?

The pavilion chief replied, "Because Wang Shu offended a child of the Zhao family.

Just a few days before Wang Book was killed, a son of the Zhao family went to Liangqi to play with a few friends. Liangqi county magistrate entertained him attentively. At the banquet, he was ordered to drum up to help this disciple of the Zhao family. Wang Book felt insulted, but forced by Liang Qiling's order, he had to endure his anger. After the drums stopped, this child of the Zhao family danced in front of Wang Can's table and invited him to dance, but Wang Ce refused. According to the customs of the Han Dynasty, when one person at a banquet invites the other party to dance, if the other party does not agree, it will be an insult to the person who invites the dance. The son of the Zhao family was furious and insulted Wang Ceng. Liang Qiling bowed down and apologized to Wang Clan. Wang Cen sat down without kneeling. His response was not good. This child of the Zhao family was even more angry. Seeing that the situation was not good, Wang Shu immediately left the hall and escaped.

This child of the Zhao family was stopped by Liang Qiling. Although he failed to catch up with Wang Ceng, he woke up the next day and recalled the "humiliation" last night, but the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, so he called a doorman and ordered him Find a way to kill Wang Shu.

A few days later, the thieves of Wang Cabei went out. Gongliang Pavilion was a place he was going to. It happened that the pavilion’s pavilion and the Zhao family’s guest were old acquaintances, so the Zhao family’s guest was given to Gongliangting’s pavilion. Some money and told him to kill Wang Shu.

Wang Shu was a county official, and Liang Qiling was alarmed by his killing. Gongliang Tingting took the initiative to see Liang Qiling and told the truth, saying that Wang Book was killed by him, but the person behind the envoy was the son of the Zhao family. Liang Qiling had no choice but to stop pursuing it and ask the pavilion to arrest anyone as a suspect, so as to cover up the matter. As a result, Gongliangting was falsely accused of being imprisoned for begging for theft.

The murderer dies, according to Han law: "thieves kill, abandon the city", since Gongliangting's request for robbery was falsely accused of murder, the county and temple can only sentence him to death, but human life depends on the sky, and Xunzhen crosses the "death penalty" of the previous era. The same as the “review system”, all death penalty cases must be reviewed according to Chinese law. The county only has the right to make a first sentence, but not to execute it immediately. After a prisoner is sentenced to death, it must be reported to the county for review by the county government. , review, confirm that it is not a wrongful or unjust case, and then it can be executed. There were no chief officials in the county government at that time, and it was far from autumn, so this thief was thrown into prison and ignored.

Liang Qiling originally planned to wait for the new prefect to take office, so he reported the case and asked the county government to approve the death penalty, but he did not expect that the newly arrived prefect Xunzhen and the Zhao family would not deal with it, because when Xunzhen was ordered to cross the Liangqi county boundary, he Instructed by Zhao Ran, he did not go out to greet him. When Xun Zhen arrived in office, he did not welcome him. It is conceivable that Xun Zhen would have a bad feeling towards him, and he knew that the case was full of doubts. ——The "repression" is also called, that is, the officials who are responsible for indicting crimes take the initiative to indict crimes and form cases, which are similar to modern public prosecutions. This is an important item in the judicial system of the Han family. In fact, Xun Zhen this Second, as the county governor, that is, the identity of the "country", calling Chen Dao to re-investigate the case was an "impeachment". Therefore, Liang Qiling had to put the case on hold for the time being.

But it was also Gongliangting's request to steal his life that he didn't deserve to die. In the end, Xun Zhen discovered the suspicious point in time, and Chen Dao found out the grievance.

It stands to reason that since the grievance has been found out and it is related to the Zhao family, Xun Zhen should immediately overturn the case and hunt down the real murderer.

You must know: According to the Han family law, “Those who murder a thief are the same law as a thief”, instigating murder is the same crime as murder, and he can take this opportunity to arrest the Zhao family’s disciple and Zhao family’s guest who instigated the murder. Arrested for the crime, sentenced to death, a blow to the Zhao family.

This is because: the Zhao family has many children and more disciples. If only one child is caught, it will not hurt the vitality of the Zhao family, but it will startle the snake. Just now Shang Zheng was "discussing the right and wrong of the Zhao family lightly" in the hall, Xun Zhen "Wang Gu told him about him", and he didn't answer Shang Zheng's words, so as not to startle the snake, he forbeared the case, so Chen Dao "be strict and don't let it go, and make persistent efforts. ”, also in order not to frighten the snake.

When enough evidence is collected and enough Zhao family children are involved, it will not be too late to start.

Xun You heard him say to order Chen Dao to "be strict and keep trying." His expression changed slightly, he hesitated, and looked outside the hall. After confirming again that there were no outsiders in the courtyard, he got up from the table, walked to his case, and sat down on his knees. Across from him, he asked in a low voice, "What does Duke Ming want?"

Xun You was born smart, and immediately heard Xun Zhen's hidden intentions from the words "Strictly guard and do not let go, and make persistent efforts".

"I do."

"How much do you think?"

Xun Zhen separated her arms, put them together again, clasped her hands and fingers, and lightly hit the table.

Rao Shi Xun You has followed Xun You to fight in the South and the North for more than two years, and he has done a lot of great things.

He exclaimed: "Ming Gong is thinking?"

This is the second time he has asked the words "Ming Gong is thinking" in these short sentences.

The two times mean different things.

The first time he was asking Xun Zhen if he wanted to rectify the Zhao family severely. Xun Zhen said yes. Therefore, he asked Xun Zhen how "ruthless" he wanted to be. Xun Zhen folded her arms, meaning it was obvious that she wanted to take over the Zhao family in Ye County. This is too surprising, so he asked the second time, but it was a subconscious question under surprise.

He asked twice, "What does Duke Ming want?" Xun Zhen answered with "I really want to" for the first time, and this time he still answered with that.

"I do."

"..., have you thought about the consequences?"

"Tai Shi Gong Yun said: 'Madam's love should not be greedy for life and hate death'. Zhen is also a servant, such as Fan Mengbo who generously died, but he couldn't do it, just like Zhang Yuanjie when he looked at the door, and Zhen disdainful, like Chen Liu Xia Zi, who was virtuous and wanted to do it. also."

Fan Mengbo is Runan Fan Pang, and Zhang Yuanjie is Shanyang Zhang Jian.

Fan Pang and Zhang Jian are both well-known party members in the world, but they are both party members, and they act differently when faced with life and death.

Facing the arrest of the imperial court, Fan Pang refused to implicate others. He voluntarily surrendered himself, went to the county jail, and refused the request of the county magistrate to escape with him. After being arrested by the imperial court, he "watched the door to cast off" in order to survive. Because he was famous in the sea, all the families he casted into were compatible with each other. As a result, because of him alone, "what he experienced, he fell in love with him." There were dozens of those who were severely punished, all the clans and relatives were wiped out, and the counties and counties were destroyed.

Xun Zhenru killed the Zhao family and would be hunted down by the imperial court. He was very honest and told Xun You that he could not be Fan Pang, but he could not be Zhang Jian either, he would learn from Xia Zizhi.

Xia Zizhi, that is, Chen Liu Xiafu.

This man is upright in his words and deeds. Although he does not associate with rich and noble people, he is "dreaded by the middle officials because of his reputation." Because of his great reputation, he is feared by the eunuchs in the middle of the court. All of them were framed and entered into the party roster. "I ordered the prefecture and county to be arrested as the party leader." He heard about the death of Zhang Jian and others. The words are linked together and spread all over the world." Then he paused and sighed, "I do my own sins, and I filthy good things. One person fled to his death, causing disasters to thousands of families. How can we live?" "Since cutting his beard and deforming, he fled to the mountains, hiding his name, and working as a domestic helper." He fled to the mountains and became a small iron smelter. ” He died of an illness before the party was shackled. Compared with Fan Pang, Xia Fu did not die generously. Compared with Zhang Jian, he would rather suffer himself than implicate others.

Xun You said: "The one Zhao clan was executed, but it was only for a short time. Duke Ming has a great future, so why come here!"

"Twice the party has been shackled, the celebrities have withered, the world has been darkened, and the righteousness has been depressed. Today, the party has been shattered, and it is time for my generation to get rid of the traitors and sweep away the demon atmosphere! Zhen is not talented, and I would like to use the disaster of one body to lead the world's lofty ideals to rise again. The revival of righteousness within the Zhenhai."

Xun You was silent for a moment, then said: "The clan father has a strong ambition, but if he destroys the Zhao clan, is it only his own fault? Has the clan father ever thought about it?"

Calling Xun Zhen "Ming Gong" was talking about public affairs, but Xun You called Xun Zhen "the father of the clan" at this time, but he was talking about family affairs.

"Chen Zhongju plotted to execute the eunuch, but he was defeated and died. The imperial court relocated his family members, imprisoning his clan, disciples, and former officials. Li Yuanli died in party affairs, and the imperial court relocated his wife, imprisoning his father, brother, disciple, and former official. My father and brother died early. , and now there is no child, such as killing Zhao, only my wife is most affected, I will make arrangements in advance to hide her."

Relocation means relocating to the border, and the "confinement" of confinement is the "constriction" of the party's confinement, that is, not to be allowed to leave office.

"The clan mother can hide it, what should I do with the hundreds of clan members?"

"There are only three people who are serving in the clan today, the father of the six clans, Ruo, and I. I will write to the father of the six clans and the parents, asking for their opinions. If they agree, I will do it. If they do not agree, I will do it. , then I won't do it."

According to Xun Zhen's estimation, Xun Shuang would not care about his career, and he should not object to his desire to kill the Zhao clan.

Xun Qian is not very easy to say.

Xun Wan is not an official now, but Xun Yu is his beloved son, and for a family to maintain long-term influence, it is necessary to do something in the officialdom, so Xun Wan, as the head of the Xun family, Xun Zhen's move might be disapproved of.

It doesn't matter if he disagrees, Xun Zhen can persuade him.

How to persuade? "The eunuchs will be killed by Yuan Shao" cannot be said, but one can use the various signs in the court and the state to show that the day of the eunuch's demise may not be far away. When the Zhao clan in the county is wiped out, the reputation of the Xun clan in Yingyin will suddenly increase dramatically. Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong are the two biggest eunuchs. If the Zhao Zhong clan is killed, the world will definitely shake. Look, it's bad for the family, but in the long run, it's only good for the family's development.

Then again, no one knew what Xun Qian would think except himself.

It doesn't matter if these remarks can't convince him~www.wuxiaspot.com~. As long as Chen Zhi is arranged, Xun Zhen can only do it. Anyway, even if the clan is implicated, it will only be that no one will be able to serve in a few years, and it will have little impact.

Of course, "If I can't convince Xun Wan, I'll just do it." Xun You couldn't tell her thoughts, so Xun Zhen said, "If they don't agree, I won't do it."

"Zhao Zhongquan is in power, and if he can't get the clan father, he may anger the clan. If he buys assassins and assassinates the clan, what should he do?"

The Han Chinese are serious about revenge, assassins are prevalent, and Zhao Zhong can't swallow the great revenge of his clan being executed. Xun You said that this is inevitable.

Xun Zhen had a plan for this, saying: "I will order Xu Zhong, Zhongren (Xun Cheng), Yulang, Jiang Qin, Chen Bao and others to return home with righteousness and settle them on the spot. From, and the righteous slaves under my account are also many Yingchuan and Runan people. According to my expectation, the three thousand cavalry righteous slaves will not be too many to return home. There are thousands of warriors, plus the earlier Arranging hundreds of disciples and disciples at home is enough to keep the clan safe."

Xun You was silent for a long time, then said: "You and the clan father have known each other for more than 20 years, and thought that he had already understood what kind of person the clan father was, but I only know today. Compared with the clan father, You, the light of firefly."

"Gongda, you are both my nephew and my old official. You will not be able to escape when disaster strikes in the future. Would you like to cut your beard and deform with me, hide your name, and die in the world?"

"Ming Gong's order, not only will the public express his wishes, but the talents will also come upon hearing it, and will gladly obey."

Xun Zhen laughed.
