Huang Shunfu scolded: "Be brave, the chief officer has already made a decision, don't roar in court!"
Zhao Han raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet and said with a smile: "Okay, I will convince you today. If you have any objections, just say it."
After all, Wang Yuanlu was a civil servant, and his mind was spinning very quickly: "Zongzhen, you are judging me by the Law of the Ming Dynasty, but you have obeyed the Law of the Ming Dynasty yourself. If you don't abide by the Law of the Ming Dynasty, how can you have any reason to quote the Law of the Ming Dynasty?" "?"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked. This was saying that Zhao Han was rebelling. Obviously Wang Yuanlu broke the pot.
"Poof!"
Zhao Han shouted: "Please read the "Ming Dynasty Edict"."
Four officers came out holding the "Ming Dynasty imperial edict", namely: "Imperial imperial edict", "Imperial imperial edict continuation", "Imperial imperial edict third edition", and "Imperial imperial edict".
Because this thing was too strong, Zhu Di stopped using it at that time.
But it is so widely available that every household had a copy, and teachers who made a living by teaching the Ming Dynasty gathered 190,000 people in Beijing at one time.
Therefore, many people still keep it in their homes. As long as they hold the "Ming Dynasty Edict" in their hands, they can be reduced to first-class punishment for crimes including exile.
Four ancient pieces of law were brought out, and most of the people listening were in a state of confusion and had no idea of their existence.
Zhao Han asked: "Do you know what this is?"
Wang Yuanlu was also confused and shook his head: "I don't know."
Zhao Han said: "This is the "Great Edict" of Emperor Taizu. Emperor Taizu said, 'This is the foundation of superiority and inferiority, and the most precious treasure of the subjects. It is distributed throughout the world and must be available in every household. Anyone who dares to be disrespectful and does not abide by it will not be governed by me. The people of Hua, who have moved outside Hua, will never be allowed to return.' He also said that if you hold the "Great Edict" in your hand, the crime of being whipped and exiled will be reduced by one level. If you don't have the "Great Edict" in your hand, your crime will be increased by one level!"
Is there such a thing?
Is there such a good thing?
Many people want to get a copy of "Ming Da Gao". If you commit a crime, your sentence can be reduced!
"You don't believe it?" Zhao Han said to the officer, "Take it over and show it to him, and let him read a few articles to get a feel for it."
The moment Wang Yuanlu came into contact with the "Ming Dynasty Edict", he knew that it was not a forgery. He could tell at a glance that it had been printed for more than two hundred years.
He flipped through a few pages at random, and his scalp suddenly became numb with fear.
Officials need to take a bus on a business trip, and the items they carry must be within ten kilograms. For every five kilograms in excess, the penalty will be ten lashes. If the excess exceeds the limit by ten kilograms, the fine will be doubled, that is, every five kilograms will be fined twenty lashes.
Corrupt officials will be sent to the frontier at the lowest level. Those who embezzle more than 60 taels will face tortures such as being beheaded, skinned, and washed.
It also contains a detailed explanation of the case. In the eighteenth year of Hongwu, the Minister of Household Affairs colluded with the officials and gentry, and seized 7 million dan in stolen grain. As a result, tens of thousands of officials and gentry were sentenced to death.
A corruption case killed tens of thousands of people!
Wang Yuanlu trembled and turned another page. The Yuyao County magistrate secretly carved the official seal and deceived the people into making false contracts. After the incident, he bribed the officials to escape the crime. The sentence was: tattoo on the ink face, and remove the fingers!
Wang Yuanlu finally knew why the "Ming Dynasty Edict" was abolished. This thing made it impossible for corrupt officials to live.
"Poof!"
Zhao Han said: "Emperor Taizu's "Ming Dagao" stipulated that if there are corrupt officials or evil gentry who harm the people, the people can take them to the capital. Even the people have the right to break into the government and arrest the corrupt officials. , dare to block it, and kill the whole family!"
Including Ouyang Zhan and Huang Shunfu who were sitting next to Zhao Han, they were all stunned on the spot. The people rushed into the government to arrest corrupt officials?
Fei Ruhe turned to look at Fei Yingcong: "Fourth uncle, have you heard of it?"
"No." Fei Yingcong shook his head.
When Zhu Yuanzhang promulgated the "Ming Dynasty Edict", the Fei family in Qianshan was still a small family.
Zhao Han said sadly: "Today's world is full of corrupt officials and evil gentry. If they are all sent to Beijing, how can we catch them? I am not talented and want to restore the rule of Hongwu and eliminate the evil in the world. Corrupt officials and evil gentry are everywhere.
A powerful person who cannot be captured or killed can only take over the responsibilities of the government. Even if Emperor Taizu is resurrected, there will probably be no objections. Don't say that I am arrogant. It is the emperor and the court who do not follow the rules of their ancestors.
Law!"
The rationality of the rebellion has been found, and we will do things according to Zhu Yuanzhang's method.
Zhao Han bullied everyone for not having read "Ming Dynasty". Zhu Yuanzhang was harsh on corrupt officials and even more ruthless on rebels.
Zhao Han asked Wang Yuanlu: "What else do you want to say?"
Wang Yuanlu was so frightened that he trembled all over, and suddenly he had a flash of inspiration: "Zongzhen, the humble status was set by Emperor Taizu. Since the general town has abolished the humble status, they should not judge me according to the Ming Dynasty Law! According to Taizu,
Emperor, how can Yang Chun'e be a good person and serve the people since she belongs to a lowly family?"
Zhao Han sneered: "You are quite clever."
Zhu Yuanzhang often took things for granted when doing things, and the "Ming Da Gao" was also very nonsense, and was abolished by Zhu Di himself.
Zhao Han said: "First, after Yang Chun'e was imprisoned, he did not have a lowly status for generations. Secondly, although Emperor Taizu established a lowly status, he also left a way for the lowly to survive. In today's Ming Dynasty, let alone a lowly status
If we can't survive, how can even good people live? There are also domestic slaves. Under the rule of Emperor Taizu, who among the officials and people would dare to keep slaves, and who would dare to take good people as slaves? In my opinion, all the princes in the court want to destroy the world.
The purpose of turning all the people into slaves is to reduce all good people in the world to lowly households. Speaking of military households, what is the difference between being a lowly household now and a lowly household? It is not that I want to disobey Emperor Taizu, but that his unfilial descendants will forget their ancestors!"
"In that case, what if we abolish the lowly status? What if we abolish the military households?"
This is a change of concept. Anyway, Zhao Han has soldiers in his hands, so whatever he says is right.
"I don't accept your strong words!" Wang Yuanlu roared, knowing that he would not be able to escape today, Zhao Han was determined to kill him.
"Poof!"
Zhao Han slapped the crowd fiercely: "You say I'm being unreasonable? Which of you has ever been reasonable?"
"Nowadays, there are bandits in all seven provinces in the north. Where did these bandits come from? There are harsh conquests from the imperial court, exploitation by the gentry below, and there have been severe disasters for years. The people will rebel if they cannot survive. Those who have been to the north should know
How can the rogues reason with each other? They did not divide the landowners' fields, they just killed the landowners' entire family and took away all the money, food, and people. Everywhere they passed must be white land!"
"Don't talk about faraway places, let's talk about Yichun and Fenyi in the north, Pingxiang and Xinjian in the west, and Taihe in the south. Farmers in all counties have rebelled. Why is this? They are just trying to survive!"
"The way of man is to lose more than you can give. So the poor get poorer and the rich get richer. I don't hate the rich. If you get property by obeying the laws and abiding by the law, it is what others deserve! But in the world, rich people are richer.
How many of them do not break the law? Among the gentry present, who dares to say that their land was bought in a proper manner, and there was no exploitation and no usury was allowed. You have not collected winter animals, and there is no small bucket in and big bucket out.
, I will return your fields immediately! Who dares to say?"
The gentry bowed their heads one after another, really not sure.
Even Li Banghua couldn't guarantee it, because he and his father might not exploit the tenants, but the slaves would definitely act against their masters.
No landlord in the world is innocent!
The so-called good people among landowners are just those whose ancestors committed evil to accumulate land, but in his generation they build bridges and pave roads.
"The way of heaven is to make up for the excess of damage!"
"Since you are acting rebelliously, then there will be a way of heaven to deal with it. What is the way of heaven? The peasants are struggling to survive and are forced to rebel, kill officials and landlords, that is the way of heaven! Throughout the dynasties, which dynasty was not like this at the end of the dynasty? This is the way of heaven. You have taken advantage of it.
The good thing is that if you don’t leave any way for the poor to survive, the poor will rise up!"
"I know that you gentry all think that I am a robber. I will divide the land you have accumulated over generations without any compensation. I tell you, if I don't come to collect your land, the farmers will rebel.
I will take your life!"
Zhao Han kicked away the referee's table, frightening Huang Shunfu and Ouyang Zhan who were standing next to him.
Zhao Han walked into the arena, looked around at the crowd, and said: "Today I put my words here, I am here to lead the rebellion. Equalize the rich and the poor, eliminate the noble and the humble, and create peace for all ages! I will only take your land, and I will not steal your money and food.
, I think I have exhausted all my benevolence and righteousness. Don’t force me to confiscate your family, exterminate your family, take away your money, food, and your family’s lives!”
Zhao Han took a step forward and said: "Under my rule, there is no base, and everyone is born equal. This is Qianshan Zhao Zhuochen's theory of personality. Personality is personality. There is no distinction between high and low at birth. Who has a higher personality?
, it all depends on whether he has done good things or bad things! Although status is high or low, it has nothing to do with personality." Zhao Han pointed at Wang Yuanlu, "Even if Yang Chun'e has not practiced good deeds and is just a prostitute, you can't rape her!"
Zhao Han pointed at the gentry again and said: "This Wang Yuanlu is from a good family and is willing to do things. I originally wanted to cultivate him. When he divided the land, his performance was only average, but I still promoted him to the mayor. I even promoted him to the mayor.
It has been decided that once Taihe County is captured, this person will be promoted to the magistrate of Taihe County. It is not because of his outstanding talents and virtues, but because he is a judge and a child of a rich family. I don’t want to completely break with you big families!"
When Wang Yuanlu heard these words, he immediately felt regretful. If he had not raped women, he would have a bright future.
Zhao Han suddenly emphasized his tone: "As long as you work hard, I will not treat you badly. But if you dare to violate the law, if you dare to form a party for personal gain, then I will have to use the "Law of the Ming Dynasty" to speak! If the "Law of the Ming Dynasty" is useless, then
Use the Ming Dynasty's imperial edict to embezzle sixty taels of silver and peel off the real grass!"
Zhao Han ordered: "Don't choose a place of execution, just hang me here and let the sages of the past generations in the Pantheon watch!"
"Zongzhen, spare your life!"
Wang Yuanlu did not excuse himself and knelt down with his legs weak, kowtowing crazily to Zhao Han.
Two officers came up with a rope, wrapped it around Wang Yuanlu's neck, and then pulled hard from left to right at the same time.
This is Chinese hanging, which is much more dignified than beheading. At least the whole body can be left behind.
I saw Wang Yuanlu scratching at the rope, kicking his feet, and his eyes getting bigger and bigger...
All the gentry present couldn't bear to see it, and many turned their heads and looked away.
Zhao Han shouted angrily: "I know that many officials, including many, think that raping a woman who was a prostitute is not a big deal. In fact, if she takes her as a concubine afterwards, it will be considered a compliment to the other party. Today I
Just make it clear that in my case, a prostitute is a human being and a prostitute is a human being. They are the same in terms of personality and the same in terms of law!"
