Early the next morning, outside the governor's journey, the people who had come to complain had already crowded the entire street.

Before, Hai Rui only accepted the case, which really made the people of Songjiang worry for a few days, thinking that even Haizhongcheng did not dare to attack the Xu family.

Now it seems that the sea fighter is still fearless, that is, he is tough to the end.

When the hour came, the gate outside the governor's line opened, and a scribe took the numbered paper and called out to the original defendants in front of the queue to come in the yamen and wait on the platform in front of the hall.

Hai Jui and other officials were already sitting in the courtroom, and as soon as they arrived, the trial began.

After a break for the Spring Festival, the Sea Fighter and his Ten Hall Yamas were in full swing, and 800 cases were concluded in one day!

Most of them are accusations that the Xu family has embezzled small people's land.

In this regard, the Xu family was not panicked. Because of the land acquired within five years, Xu Ge Lao had already greeted them and took the initiative to give up. This is also the reason for the 40,000 acres of land to be returned.

As for those five years ago, according to the current "Punishment Regulations", there was a five-year prosecution period for land disputes. That is to say, as long as the ownership of the land has been transferred for more than five years, the seller cannot ask for redemption for any reason.

As long as the Xu family gives up the land within five years, legally speaking, they are already invincible, so Xu Jie has no fear and refuses Hai Rui's unreasonable request.

Didn't you Hai Rui keep saying that you didn't act according to the law, and now I'll talk to you about national law and see what you do?

It's a pity that no one knows the Da Ming Law better than Hai Rui, and he actually bypassed the "Punishment Regulations" and judged the case with the "Da Ming Law" formulated by Emperor Taizu. Because in the "Da Ming Law", such cases can be prosecuted indefinitely!

The "Questioning and Punishment Regulations" were originally concocted by the scholar group to protect themselves from the harsh restrictions of the "Da Ming Law". Now Hai Rui is using "Da Ming Law" to judge the Xu family's case, which will cost the Xu family's life!

On the first day alone, the governor Yamen convicted more than 300 members of the Xu family and more than 300 slaves on charges of 'accepting contributions', 'concealing land and property, and evading taxes, and the amount was particularly huge'.

Among them are Xu Jie's three brothers Xu Long, Xu Chen, and Xu Zhi, as well as Xu Fan, Xu Kun, Xu Ying and other more than 20 children and nephews.

This is still the Xu family in the relatively thin city, in the old house of the Xu family in Sijing, Xu Ge's cousins, cousins, nephews, and grandsons have been convicted of more crimes.

And unlike in Suzhou before, as soon as the verdict was announced, Hai Rui issued a ticket card and dispatched officials and soldiers to arrest the Xu family.

This frightened Niu Yanshi and the others, and hurriedly persuaded the sea fighter to think twice: "Because of the old brothers of Xu Ge, the Xu family has many official bodies or crowns, and they also have fame and fame to protect them, how can they say that they can take it?" ”

"Please command the flag!" Hai Rui stood up and shook his head north.

To the low and solemn sound of drums, the flag officer escorted up four pairs of royal flags.

Hai Rui first took down a pair of flags, handed them to Zhen Zhenji, and said, "You quickly take two hundred soldiers and horses and go to the Xu Mansion of Nanchan Temple to get people." Ran one, come and see you! ”

"Order!" Seeing that the king's order flags had been moved out, Zhen Zhenji knew that Haigong was going to give it a go, so how dare he talk nonsense again, so he quickly took the order and left.

"The two of you quickly took five hundred soldiers and horses, went to Xujiabang in Sijing to get people, let one go, and came to see you!" Hai Rui awarded another pair of flags to Zheng Yue and Wang members.

The two hurriedly responded in unison.

Hai Rui awarded the third pair of flags to Niu Yanshi, and said after a pause: "You take two hundred soldiers and horses to the retreat garden to protect Xu Ge Lao, don't let his old man leave your sight!" ”

"......" Niu Weishi secretly complained, he could understand the voice of Hai Gong's order, it was really exciting.

Forget it, let's take revenge for Lin Zhongcheng!

"Yes!" Thinking of this, Niu Yanshi's nose spewed out white gas, turned his heart sideways, and responded.

~~

Soon, the soldiers of the governor's yamen went to all parts of the city.

The people watched as the officers and soldiers carrying spears, wearing red and blue uniforms and leggings, marched through the city in a procession. The cloth shoes with iron nails trampled the ground into dust and made a terrifying clicking sound.

"The governor's yamen handles the case, avoid! Avoid! "The officers and soldiers who took the lead used the barrels of their guns to disperse the crowd that was blocking the way.

Ordinary people took refuge and stood on both sides of the road to look.

"This is going to Nanzen Temple?"

"Are you going to move the Xu family?!"

"Eighty percent yes! Let's go, let's see! "The people, who were still afraid, suddenly became energetic.

The Xu family has been powerful in Fucheng for decades, and it is not an exaggeration to say that all bad things have been done. Besides, his family suddenly became rich and prosperous by relying on the old man, who in the whole city is not red-eyed?

What's more, the super pleasure of pulling the Earth Emperor off the horse and stepping on his feet fiercely may not be encountered once in his life.

The citizens were not afraid anymore, and they left their work one after another and followed the officials and soldiers to watch the excitement.

The officers and soldiers of the brigade arrived at Nanchan Temple in a blink of an eye, and walked under the archway engraved with 'Tanhua and the first', 'Shangzhu Guo', 'Great Zongbo', 'University Scholar', and 'Shoufu Elder', just like looking at the glorious career of Xu Ge Lao in a short period of time.

It's a pity that no matter how brilliant the career is, there is a moment to the end, and the glory of the past can no longer shelter this first family in Songjiang.

The officers and soldiers followed the prefect and came to the gate of the Xu Mansion.

The Xu family had already gotten the news and closed the door tightly, no matter how fast the arresters in the house smashed the door.

"Bang the door!" At this point, there is nothing to hesitate about, and Zhen Zhenji waved his hand.

Immediately, there were ten officers and soldiers, carrying logs with iron heads. first ran for a while, and then mounted the hammer on the gate of the Xu Mansion.

Don't look at the gate is extremely thick, clad in iron and copper, but it can't resist this level of impact.

After only three or two blows, he was knocked off the iron hoop and iron nail connected to the door frame, and after two more blows, he was knocked to the ground with a bang.

The servants of the Xu family inside the door screamed and dodged, and were almost crushed under the collapsed door panel.

"Get in!" Seeing that the door was opened, Zhen Zhenji ordered: "Arrest people according to the list, seize all the account books and deeds, and bring them all back!" ”

The catchers of the prefect's yamen rushed in with officers and soldiers.

In the mansion of the Xu Mansion, there are three old ladies of the Xu family, and their respective children and grandchildren, together with female dependents and slaves, adding up to a thousand people.

The wolf-like officers and soldiers rushed in, how could they be polite to them? Although it is not enough to smash and rob, it is inevitable that the actions are violent and the language is vulgar.

When Xu Fuzhong boarded, ghosts cried wolves everywhere, and women's screams came and went, as if they had been abused.

The right attendant of the Nanjing Criminal Department, Xu Zhi, the youngest brother of Xu Gelao, happened to be in the house at this time.

Hearing the mess outside, he quickly put on his pants and came out to check.

The Xu family, who were running away from the chasers of the official army all the way, came to him.
