Chapter 474: The Captive Invites Wine Fight
Faced with Liu Yuan's question, the inspector of the Criminal Department said coldly: "This is the ticket of the Criminal Department and the Criminal Division, please invite the Xianggong and the Xianggong Lady to come to Beijing to meet each other." As men, we don't dare to rush to the lady, so we call each of our wives to invite the lady out, let's go. β
Jin Zhi nodded with a bitter face, thinking that it would be the same ending as last time, although he couldn't help but be a little scared, he didn't feel that it was a big deal.
Liu Yuanxin said that even if the lawsuit reaches the Criminal Department, what am I afraid of if I have money? It's a big deal to rush to the book, my father is looking for an acquaintance to help, anyway, let's wait and see.
The Criminal Department sent people to divide into many ways, and in just half a day, they brought all the witnesses, including the two sisters-in-law who walked the streets and alleys.
When they converged in front of the criminal department, Gao was so angry that he shouted: "My grandfather! My ancestors! Asked your Liu family to drag us to death, and poured mold for eight lifetimes to be neighbors with your family. β
Liu Yuan smiled bitterly and said: "Senior sister-in-law, I have my own compensation for the grievances you have suffered, you must stop talking nonsense, even the two masters, I have compensation." β
Haihui and Guo Guzi also looked at each other and smiled bitterly, the chaotic crowd reacted to everything, and the Zhou family who heard the news blocked outside and shouted that they were wronged, and they were stopped by the poor people.
The housekeeper of the Liu family secretly wanted to hand over a few taels of silver, but who in the criminal department dared to stretch out his hand? The loud reprimand made the butler's face bright.
Everyone was taken to a hall to stay, and the next lobby was trying the case, and Wang Ji deliberately brought up a case that was also hanged.
Liu Yuan and others watched from the side, the defendant in this case was a widow mother-in-law, in her forties, who was white and fat, raised a man in his thirties, and pasted most of the family's belongings upside down, not only that, but also for fear that the man would think she was old.
The mother-in-law was determined to give her daughter-in-law to the man to sleep with, so as to keep the hearts of the Han people. The daughter-in-law was born in a down-and-out literati family, and she thought about her mother-in-law. dishonored one's own honor; Disobeyed his mother-in-law, couldn't stand the beating, scolding and abuse, and simply hanged himself in the middle of the night.
The daughter-in-law casually chose to commit suicide, and her mother's family was as weak and useless as her, and she didn't dare to pursue it when she died, but the neighbors couldn't see it, so they reported the appointment of the mayor together.
The county magistrate probably has the same virtue as Fang Fucheng, punished a lot of things and didn't treat anyone, and put his mother-in-law home after a lesson, and the most hateful thing is to wipe out the details of raising a man.
Unexpectedly, the patrol asked for details. Because it was a case that occurred in the vicinity of Gyeonggi, it was directly reported to the Prosecutor's Office, which ordered the local government to send the prisoner to the capital and then transferred it to the Criminal Department for review.
Even the man was escorted over, and the trial of this case was naturally very easy, Wang Ji ordered his mother-in-law to confess, drew the charge, ripped off the pants of the two defendants in public, and beat the forty mandarin duck boards. sentenced to compensate for human life, and migrated to Liaodong to do hard labor for 20 years.
Liu Yuan was shocked to see it, his lawsuit was much the same, and if he found out, he was wrongfully hanged. Then the golden branch is in danger. He didn't worry about himself, because as a prisoner and a son of an official eunuch, he didn't kill him, and at most he was reprimanded and fined some silver.
Meanwhile. Hu Desheng didn't know his brother-in-law's intentions, and after getting the ticket issued by the ministry to remove Xu Hao's identity, he immediately showed his hideous face.
All eighteen torture instruments in the women's prison were pushed out. The flames of the stove jumped three feet high, the soldering iron burned red, and all kinds of tiger chairs and chili water were really terrifying.
Xu Hao didn't wait for the punishment to give in immediately, and shouted: "I've recruited, I've recruited." β
Hu Desheng was surprised, this fucking hasn't bent into a trick yet, what are you recruiting? Could it be that there is something else going on?
Who knew that Xu Hao said very seriously: "It's not okay to ask me to marry a sister, it's a big deal that I admit the punishment, you can tell how much silver you want." β
Hu Desheng said angrily: "Who cares about your stinky money? You said that you don't know Monk Zhiyun and the butcher Xu Luo. β
Xu Hao nodded vigorously and said, "I recognize, we have drunk together." β
Hu Desheng couldn't help but be overjoyed, and secretly said that this is your own death, and you can't complain about me. Sentence you as an accomplice first, and if your sister is willing to marry me in order to save you, then get you out, or I will send you to Hades.
The jailers didn't expect Xu Hao to be so soft-boned, and he was also the number one fool in the world, he would admit whatever he said in order not to suffer, and he had never seen such a happy person in handling cases for so many years.
Hu Desheng easily made the other party admit to being an accomplice to the murder, looked at Xu Hao's drawing without thinking, and sneered: "Do you think that raising your identity can save your life?" Let me tell you, the identity of the lifter is gone. β
Xu Hao was suddenly surprised and shouted, "Impossible." β
Hu Desheng sneered: "What's impossible, you have to confess if you violate the royal law, and no one can protect you." β
When he was about to use torture to gag the other party's mouth, who knew that Xu Hao said dejectedly: "That's it, I confess my guilt and just ask for a good time." β
The jailers couldn't help but look at each other, and they all thought to themselves, is this person sick in the brain? He is unwilling to endure torture, but he is willing to stretch his neck and be stabbed. There are countless anecdotes similar to unjust death, and there are more absurd than this, but everyone doesn't care, at most sigh that this foolish person died is too ridiculous.
Hu Desheng also faintly felt strange, as if something was wrong, but he was instantly relieved when he thought that the other party was a powerless literati, and in this dark prison, Jiang Yang's thieves had to obey here.
Yu Qian received an edict from Zheng Xi, the secretary of the Criminal Department, ordering the prisoner of the assassination case to be extracted, and Hu Desheng, the original person in charge of the case, went to the Criminal Department for trial.
Yu Qian was taken aback, he didn't expect the Criminal Department to be so serious, I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate to do this, but he has no choice but to do it, what can he do except do it?
Calling Hu Desheng in front of him, Yu Qian told him to pay attention, if something went wrong, the consequences might be unimaginable.
When Hu Desheng heard the news, a thunderclap sounded above his head, and he was terrified. Unexpectedly, with the positive three products, Shuntian Mansion Yin would not be able to solve a homicide case, especially as an official, he still has to kneel with the prisoner, this face is completely gone.
made a decision immediately, Hu Desheng is not ready to retaliate against Xu Hao, more things are better than less things, who knows if the foolish worm will turn back.
At that moment, there was a burst of chickens and dogs jumping in Shuntian Mansion, and the catchers led Zhiyun and Xu Meng out of prison, and Hu Desheng turned over on the horse with a black face.
Suddenly seeing Xu Hao standing behind in a daze, Hu Desheng pointed at him and said angrily: "Take him back to prison." β
Bai Qing was just about to make a move, Xu Hao pulled out the knife on his waist with his backhand and put it across his neck. sighed: "Anyway, I am the one who is about to die, and whoever cares about me will die to whomever I want." β
Hu Desheng immediately smoked and roared: "You are stupid! We went to the Criminal Department for something, and it has nothing to do with you. β
Xu Hao tilted his head in despair and said, "I don't care, if you don't let me go, I'll die to show you." β
The officials and catchers laughed and scolded you for dying, only Xu Meng looked at his cousin in disbelief, and his heart swelled with ecstasy, and then he realized the preciousness of family affection, it turned out that the family did not give up on themselves, no wonder his wife was calm and calm when she came to visit the prison. The moved eyes immediately turned red.
Hu Desheng was worried that there would be extraneous branches, if he killed himself in broad daylight, wouldn't it alarm the Criminal Department?
But no matter how good he said, Xu Hao, who was 'all about discouragement', made up his mind to rely on him.
Bai Qing, who had been waiting for a move, suddenly made a move, ready to snatch the knife over, snap! But Xu Hao's seemingly unintentional kick hit the vital part, and Bai Qing was so painful that he clutched his life, and he lay on the ground with a scream.
Frightened, Xu Hao threw the knife on the ground and shouted, "It's his own fault first." It's none of my business. Forget it, can't I not go! β
This is really a twist and turn, and Hu Desheng sighed heavily, secretly scolding that it was really a fucking mallet. hurriedly led the team out of Shuntian Mansion, for fear that Xu Hao would regret it again. Xu Ming, who was in a good mood, walked with a smile, and Monk Zhiyun cried with a sad face, saying that he didn't care about a good meal of wine and food before he died.
Money addicts and lustful people came over with pity. Standing on both sides of Xu Hao on the left and right, he said, "Let's go, from now on, you don't want to go out." β
"Really?" Xu Hao smiled lightly. Ordered: "Take both of them and Sai Qinhuai to the Criminal Department." β
Before the words fell, four brocade-clothed guards wearing flying fish suits walked in outside, and under the stunned gaze of a cadre of the Shuntian Mansion, the world-famous embroidered spring knife was placed on the necks of the two jailers, and then walked away with Xu Juren, who had just become a prisoner.
Not long after, Yu Qian rushed out in a panic when he heard the news, beads of sweat dripped down his cheeks, and shouted: "Prepare a sedan chair and go to the criminal department." β
Forbidden City, outside the Fengtian Temple.
The Tatar envoy, who was contemptuously called the "captive envoy" by the Great Ming, said proudly in front of the Manchu civil and military forces: "I Mongolians like to drink, I don't know who dares to compete with me?" Everyone meets friends with wine. β
Who doesn't know that the Mongolian people are addicted to alcohol? Drinking a lot of alcohol is regarded as a necessary condition for a warrior to be strong and fierce, and a bad amount of alcohol will be regarded as a coward, so every time he sends someone to the north or the Western Regions, the premise must be that the amount of alcohol must be passed.
Now the Tatar state affairs Arutai supports the descendant of the golden family, Benyasuri, as the khan, killed the former Great Khan ghost Lichi, and has more than 100,000 soldiers.
The court sent people to appease them, but they were all rejected by Benjamin in person.
Therefore, this time Benjamin sent an envoy to Beijing, and the court attached great importance to this, and if the other party could be made to bow down to him, then there would be no need to go to war. Even if the war started, the Ming had to send an army to the north, instead of waiting for the enemy to knock.
Therefore, including the emperor, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty had the ghost idea of appeasing the Tatars for the time being, and seized the time to deploy troops.
The problem is that although the Han people have liked to drink alcohol since ancient times, officials rarely drink alcohol, and the wine culture is an elegant thing, not to mention the wine culture of officialdom, which is elegant and elegant.
Moreover, the messenger of the five major and three coarse Tatars can indeed drink, and he uses wine as water to quench his thirst every day, and he still speaks clearly and looks sober after pouring three or five catties of spirits.
Since the Song Dynasty, the Han and the Mongols have been dealing with each other for about hundreds of years, and they were occupied a few decades ago, and there are Tartar lords everywhere, so everyone has a number of Mongols' alcohol, and the two sides are only half a catty or eight taels of each other, and they are drunk after drinking to the worst.
This envoy must be the only drunkard among the Mongols, so the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are silent, even if there are good drinkers, I am afraid they are not as good as the outliers, and there is a chance that they will lose a lot of defeat.
Hearing that the officials of the Ministry of Rites and other officials invited him to a banquet last night, this frequent toast, showing the huge amount of Tatar drinks, drank everyone down at that time, which was very unbelievable.
At this moment, Zhu Gaochi frowned and was silent, if no one in the Ming Dynasty could drink more than others, wouldn't he be ridiculed and despised by the Mongols? Even if it is a trivial matter, I remember that Xu Hao once said that diplomacy is no trivial matter, and how can the dignified Celestial Empire be ridiculed by no one, and even no one can drink.
Zhang Fu, who was standing in the second place of the military attachΓ©, looked at Xu Qingtang in front of him and asked, "Uncle, has Xu Hao never been drunk?" β
Xu Qingtang shook his head and said: "His alcohol consumption is just that, at most he is a good drinker, and he can't be called a drunkard." β
Zhu Gaochi has always been steady, and he was not sure that he would not be able to fall into the agitation, so he simply delayed it until the evening, so he didn't worry about finding a talent to drink, so he said: "Go down first, and I will send elegant officials to hold a banquet tonight." β
When the envoy heard this, he gritted his teeth and smiled, turned around and walked away with a slight salute, and the angry Zhang Fu and other generals were about to roll up their sleeves and drink with him.
Zhu Gaochi also smiled and said: "Recently, there is a Wenbi, and there is a wine competition, who dares to fight?" β
Big guy, look at me, I'll look at you, Yang Shiqi said: "First of all, the identity must be equal, and secondly, the other party is a martial artist, and I will send a literati to the court, so that the Tatars can be convinced." (To be continued......)
