If you have the right, you can give a good beating to those who know how to beat, and a stick to those who can't. Zhu Linzong, a great general in front of the formation, has experienced not only hundreds of battles, but also thirty or fifty battles. How could he be so careless and kill him with just one punch?
Someone was beaten to death? No one is good at beating people, and no one has good words for swearing. When beating a dog, you don't even look at the owner or say anything about him. The key is that even if the people in the prime minister's house strike first, they won't beat him up.
Damn, this General Xiao Zhu is too reckless!
The deceased's name was Wang San. He was about 30 years old. He was tall and strong. He had served in the prime minister's house for more than ten years. Generally speaking, people who were sold into slavery did not have their surname. Wang San's real name could not be verified.
So let’s count it as Wang San.
If we go by the rules, one is paraded on the streets to praise officials, and he has to go everywhere, and the other is a holy place where the emperor conferred the title, and all civil and military officials have to dismount their horses and dismount their sedan chairs to walk past. Even if there is a little friction between the two families,
Pulling and tugging, tearing clothes and injuring flesh, or at least giving them panda eyes, the emperor will not be able to end this endless lawsuit. At worst, each of them will be beaten fifty times. If the person dies, it will be a different matter.
Human life matters. This has been common sense since ancient times.
Prime Minister Wang had just come down from the court and was lying on the Grand Master's chair with his maids rubbing his shoulders and back. When his servants came in with a report, they said that the newly appointed Admiral of the Nine Gates had beaten Wang San, the servant of the palace, to death. As soon as he heard that
A life was spared, and he couldn't help but feel angry. A little admiral was so arrogant that he beat his servant to death for the first time. Is this okay? Prime Minister Wang was surrounded by people and came to the field in front of the door. He raised his eyes and took a look.
, the young admiral sat motionless on the horse, a cold-eyed young man held his hands in front of his chest, and Wang San's dead body was lying on the roadside. Although Wang Cheng was filled with anger when he saw this scene, there was a punter after all.
The prime minister's stomach sank slightly for a while, he stroked a few sparse goat's beards, looked at Cao Huazhi and asked expressionlessly:
"Are you the newly appointed Admiral Cao Shimin?"
"It's the official!" Cao Huazhi replied coldly while still riding on his horse, neither arrogant nor humble.
When Cao Huazhi saw this man, her anger suddenly rose. She thought of her deceased parents and family, all of whom had died at the hands of this man. She wished she could get off her horse immediately, punch and kick him three times, and kill this evil thief immediately, but
This was not the time, so she refrained from having an attack.
"Since you have reached the door, you will not dismount until you dismount. Why did you bully others and beat my steward to death?" Wang Shugui said calmly.
Zhu Linzong took over and said: "I caused this by myself. If you have any trouble, come to me. I didn't move a finger on this man. He fell down and died on his own."
"Oh, it turns out to be General Zhu! Sorry, disrespectful. Since you said it was you, I might as well ask, why did such a big living person fall down and die? I admire your ability, but you are not the one to kill here.
It’s a good battlefield for the enemy! What my people did was absolutely wrong. I don’t care if you curse or hit them twice, but you shouldn’t beat them to death!”
Zhu Linzong's tongue was not very sharp, and talking about truth was not his strong point. After a few words, the old thief stopped him in his tracks. His face turned red from suppressing it, and he kept saying the same old saying:
"Anyway, I didn't hit him. He fell to death on his own. If you don't believe me, will you do an autopsy?"
"Of course the corpse needs to be examined." Wang Shugui said still calmly, "No matter how hard you argue, the dead body is clearly there, and you can't rely on it."
"If you want to arrest you, then arrest me. This matter has nothing to do with the Admiral." Zhu Linzong said in an all-round way.
Wang Shugui said: "Should I arrest you? Although I am the chief minister, I have never done anything disrespectful to the court. You are both officials of the court. I have no right to arrest you privately. We will report this matter to the emperor tomorrow morning, and he will do anything he wants.
Isn’t it because I am being unreasonable by the Holy One?”
Cao Huazhi said: "First do the autopsy, and then go to the pilgrimage."
Wang Shugui said: "Okay, it's up to you, a priori. Anyone who comes, go and ask the executioner to send someone to the murder scene to inspect it as soon as possible."
In less than half an hour, the execution officer sat on a sedan and arrived, sweating profusely. The execution officer got off the sedan and kowtowed to the Prime Minister on the ground. Wang Shugui said:
"Master Admiral, we are doing business today. My servant was beaten to death by the Admiral's men, and his body is displayed here. This is a fact that is obvious to all. You must judge impartially and do not sacrifice yourself for selfish reasons!"
The executioner took off the deceased's clothes, looked at them carefully, up and down, front and back, and said:
"Sir, sir, this, this..."
"If you have something to say, just say it, don't vomit!" Wang Shugui scolded.
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, this man has no external injuries. We still need to exhume the body to see if there are any internal injuries. I wonder what you mean, sir?" The execution officer finally revealed the doubt in his mind.
"It's your business to ask how to check? However," Wang Shugui pondered for a moment, then said, "Since the person is already dead, is it appropriate to open the intestines and disembowel the body again?"
"I am at your lord's command." It turned out that the executioner did not stutter.
"You are playing the leading role, what are my orders? Let's do this," Wang Shugui thought for a while and said, "You find someone to take this dead body away. It's your business to use the knife or scissors. The test results must be sent before the court tomorrow morning.
Yes, this matter still needs to be spoken by the Holy Spirit.”
On the morning of the second day, Prime Minister Wang did not wait for the young emperor to say, "If there is something to do, I will start the meeting, but if there is nothing to do, the court will be dismissed." He hurriedly went out and said:
"Long live our Emperor, there is a new Admiral of the Nine Gates, Cao Anmin, who is arrogant and arrogant. Yesterday, when he was parading his officials in praise of his officials, he passed by the Prime Minister's Mansion and intentionally kicked down the imperial seal sign. He refused to dismount and walk. There was a servant in front of the gate.
I went to stop him, but he instigated someone to beat him to death. Please ask the Holy Spirit to judge."
The Silly Emperor is a problem. He wants to say, "Pull that new admiral out and kill him," but I don't feel very bearable. I just rewarded him with ten girls. He may die before eating even a few of them. It's too much.
The injustice is very serious. Don't say anything. This old man is a difficult master. Even the queen mother gave him three points, and he was even more afraid of him like a tiger. The little emperor was hesitating, and there was Zhang Dandanqi, the minister.
Played:
"Your Majesty knows, yesterday when Admiral Cao was ordered to parade the officials in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion, he was unable to dismount because the horse was running too fast and could not hold the reins. This is true. As for beating people to death, it is even more strange. Experienced corpses
The official inspection revealed that there were no injuries on the body of the deceased. Therefore, I thought that this person must have suffered a sudden illness and died suddenly."
"What do you mean, Zhang Aiqing?" The little emperor and Zhang Dandan were playmates who grew up together, so they were always emotionally attached to him.
"According to my wishes, the executioner should have the final say." Zhang Dandan said.
"Okay, I give you permission to play, and I will quickly announce that the executioner will come into the palace for questioning."
The punishment officer was a junior, and was not among the third class according to his rank, so he could not enter the court without declaration. The punishment officer kowtowed eight times to the little emperor according to etiquette, and then spoke:
