429 Heavy Duty

Emperor Zhu Qiyu of the Ming Dynasty returned to Nanshu, picked up his pen and wrote a letter.

At present, the rules of the Ming Dynasty, the imperial edicts are still imperial edicts, but imperial edicts related to national policy must go through the cabinet. In fact, the Ming Emperor and the cabinet also discussed the classification of imperial edicts in detail, which was considered to have agreed on a standard.

Therefore, the Ming Emperor Zhu Qiyu gave Bai Minghe a private message, not an imperial edict or a national policy.

The key to the content in the letter is in one sentence, asking the utilization rate of the White-Ming He Japanese, what is the current level. Of course, if it is very low, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty suggested that we should pay attention to the use of suggestions here, not what I want. It is recommended that the White-Ming He can add some more.

If it is too cruel, I would also advise the white-famous He to not stir up the rebellion on the Japanese island.

Of course, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty never thought that Bai Minghe was a ruthless man. Judging from the style of Bai Minghe's behavior in the Ming Dynasty, no one has a mortal grudge with him so far, but not many people are afraid of Bai Minghe. It is because of the principle of Bai Minghe's behavior. First, it is not to harm people's lives, and second, it is not to harm the family.

Whether the Baiming He was cruel enough is the time to test him.

Not only in Nanjing, but also in the capital, the case of corruption in Fujian Provincial Administration is a shocking case.

It was not because these people were greedy for a lot, but because people touched the cake of Haisi, touched the taboo of Baiming, and hurt the face of the Emperor of Ming Dynasty.

The evidence is sufficient. The third-rate garrison station sold by the Chief Secretary, let alone resist. The Fujian governor did not come forward. The news of Lan Hai's public return to Fujian to repair the fleet was made. All the third-rate garrison stations turned against each other. More than a dozen commanders and co-magistrates were tied up by the veterans of the garrison station, and they were sent to Fujian.

As for the local officials, the garrison did not dare to take action, but many veterans surrounded these people's yamen and places to live, just waiting for the people from above to come and get them.

"Old He, we have grown up together since we were young. We have been fifty years." A Fujian Weishu who was tied up could not understand.

"Tie a little tight!" The Baihu, named Lao Bao, first ordered his subordinates to add a rope, and then explained: "I originally thought that you, the old boy, dared to build a shipyard after being ordered by Shangfeng. But you are asking all the old brothers to accompany you to lose their heads. We can't afford to compensate you for this!"

"How do you know this?"

"My three daughters got married at the end of the year. They were married to the son of the Zhao family of the Royal Imperial Guard. An Xiang was also kept by the position of the first mate for my three daughters. How did you tell me how did I know about you?"

No need to explain it anymore. The Royal Guard is the power of the British Duke Zhang Mao.

But Anxiang, the one who knows the inside story, doesn't know that these are the private soldiers of Bai Minghe. Anxiang's first mate earns more than three times higher than the captain of the Royal Guards in a year.

Even if it is a woman, she will keep her military status after giving birth to a baby and then going to fight for military service, and she can be transferred to a dock manager.

Everyone in Fujian was arresting people, and the two governors' families were confiscated, and 700,000 taels of silver and 50,000 taels of gold were confiscated. Not counting other gold, silver and jewelry, this was already a death sentence for destroying the family.

Whether it is Jiangnan, the capital, or even the entire Ming Dynasty, they are staring at it.

"Mr. Bai, the crime has been determined. According to the Ming Dynasty, this is a death sentence. How to use punishment? Mr. Bai will give me some advice."

"Isn't it beheading?" Bai Minghe was puzzled.

The Minister of Justice of Nanjing explained: "This death penalty is divided into several types. Poison, squeezing, is considered as the punishment of the second punishment, beheading, and being killed by the rod is the punishment of the middle punishment, and being cut in half is the punishment of the upper punishment. The other punishments are too cruel and are almost no longer used."

Bai Minghe felt numb when he heard the scalp. He thought to himself that some cruel things that were abolished, wouldn’t these kinds of them be cruel?

"I'm afraid this Lingchi won't be used!" Bai Minghe asked again.

"It is useful. It is already one of the ten evils to build a sea ship on the charge and collude with Nanyang to do it in detail. And his favored concubine, jealousy, and harmed three good women, is also one of the ten evils."

It is said that it is a good family, but Bai Minghe is clear about it. One is a widow who has an affair with Zuo Bu Zhengsi. He was killed by his beloved concubine, and the other is Hai Nu, but when he was traveling, he seemed to have dirty her clothes and asked his servants to beat him to death. The last one was because Zuo Bu Zhengsi was determined to take a concubine, so he was jealous of his beloved concubine. Before he even entered the door, he beat the woman's house to death.

This is the type that belongs to the ten evils and endangers society.

"After all, they are also scholars and officials. Lingchi's punishment has not been used for many years, so be lighter." Bai Minghe expressed his opinion.

At present, the Minister of Justice of Nanjing wrote in the case file that he had been beheaded and abandoned the market.

Bai Minghe didn't understand these punishments, at least he had never seen them with his own eyes. In his opinion, it was just a knife to cut his head and cut it in half, and it was all dead, and there was no big difference.

But it is different to cut in half. After cutting, a person can live for a few more hours, and he will definitely die in extreme pain.

"Then, what about his favorite concubine? He was sent to the army as a slave and would probably die in three or five days." The words of the Minister of Justice in Nanjing were very obscure. If the number of slaves in the army was unlimited, he would be killed by the unlimited number of people.

Fortunately, Bai Minghe could understand this and shook his head: "This bitch, don't mess with my Ming sergeant."

"It's OK." Zhang Feng applauded. In his eyes, such a bastard should ride a wooden donkey, or be stripped naked and paraded in a heavy shackle.

"Let's do this, since it's the woman who left a whole body!"

"No, according to the Ming Dynasty law, this kind of bastard is at least a punishment. A woman punishes her entire body, which is nothing more than poison and Bai Ling. This bastard is too cheap. She beats her to death and breaks her hands and feet, and it is also an explanation for the victim." The Minister of Justice of Nanjing believes that the punishment is too light, after all, it is three lives, and it is a ten serious crime.

Bai Minghe thought about it and nodded silently.

At this time, the Minister of Works of Nanjing said: "I have a suggestion to use electricity!"

The electric chair? The white-famous crane was really shocked.

Bai Minghe understood these, but others might not understand them. The Minister of Works explained: "A few days ago, when the craftsmen were testing the spark coil, Mr. Bai explained in advance that the power was too high and there was danger. A craftsman accidentally touched it, and his arm was numb all day, so he touched it gently."

"Can this electrocute people?" asked the Minister of Justice.

"Yes, as I saw with my own eyes, a mouse penetrated into the coil bucket and was electrocuted after a few breaths. In order to warn the craftsmen to pay attention, the craftsman in the foreman found a sheep and was still electrocuted. People are afraid that they will not last much longer than sheep, so the craftsmen have been particularly careful recently. I think that electricity is a divine object, originally for thunder and lightning in the sky, and Lord Bai used a wonderful method to be used in the world. This thing should have a sense of awe. For the great use of the future, it is better for the people to have a sense of awe."

"Then order it and use electricity!"

One person used electricity, but after a few old guys discussed it, they added four electric scams in total.

Among such people, only two were killed. They used poison because they were royal families, and the rest of the royal families were demoted to common people.

According to the Ming Dynasty law, the royal family can be punished by the royal family. The male family can be a commoner, but the female cannot. Even if it is a concubine's daughter, it is the descendant of Emperor Gaozu, so how can he be bullied by the common people? Therefore, the daughter of the royal family will be sent to the capital and enter the palace to be slaves.

As for the female family members of the official family such as the General Secretary, they are officials slaves, and this can be dealt with at will.

Even if there is no sin or even if you have never done bad things, this is the involvement of great sin. This is what the Ming Dynasty law stipulates. The six ministries in Nanjing came to Bai Minghe to discuss it. In fact, they were choosing a standard for conviction, and the crime had been settled.

"The last one, Lord Bai. Participants in the side branch, if defined!"

This question stumped the white-famous crane. To put it bluntly, how many people were involved? Draw a line, and those who crossed the line may become slaves or have maids. Those who don’t crossed the line will be put on a horse. This is also a practice in the Ming Dynasty.

Bai Minghe couldn't answer.

Everyone did not urge him, but just waited for Bai Minghe to make a decision. Bai Minghe couldn't say anything at this time, so you could just let you decide. This is an opportunity to show off your feathers, and Bai Minghe could not choose to give up.

Xu Chengzong, who was half-squinting, didn't even open his eyes and shouted: "Xiaobai, you don't have to think about what the Ming Dynasty rules are like. You can't even understand this thing. You just have to say, light, medium, and heavy. Choose one!" Xu Chengzong gave Bai Minghe face and did not make any difference.

Bai Minghe gritted his teeth: "Heavy!"

"Isn't that all, since I have chosen the ruling, some people in the Ministry of Justice are proficient in the laws and regulations of the Ming Dynasty. Let's take the ruling!"

Xu Chengzong stood up and patted Bai Minghe on the shoulder: "Simple things make you so complicated. I heard that the Japanese women on your side have almost finished training, let's go! Let the old brother go and see." Xu Chengzong said to Bai Minghe, don't listen here, because you are so serious that you will feel softer when you hear it.

"Didn't you say that it will start three days later?" Xiao Wei, who had not spoken, also asked.

"I'll go and see first, can you do it?" Xu Chengzong yelled, and Xiao Wei laughed dryly. Xu Chengzong also laughed: "Don't worry, Xiaobai will definitely choose some of the things he has to do. You guys are busy first, I'll go and see!" Xu Chengzong pulled Bai Minghe away.

After leaving the door, Xu Chengzong's face became serious.

"It's nothing wrong to be serious. You are not alone. You have to protect your family's small family and thousands of people behind you. The kindness of a woman will make you unfaithful and unkind behind you because they will think you cannot rely on."

"What the Duke of the State said is that I also thought of these things and chose to be more serious. But I still want to know how big the difference is between this and the more serious?"

Xu Chengzong stopped and thought for a moment: "Based on this case, it is estimated that at least a thousand people will be there!"

Bai Minghe really took a breath. A word of his mouth would make thousands more prisoners and hundreds of people become slaves. Even if it was to protect himself, the number of people would make Bai Minghe feel uncomfortable.
