Chapter 372 I can only bow my head under Jun Ze's truth
All the crimes were unfounded, except for the "six other crimes" that she had actually committed.
It was precisely this article that made the Holy One suspicious of her.
Would a person who allowed rumors about the saint's unknown origin to spread really be loyal to him wholeheartedly?
The Holy One didn't know, so there was this Tribunal Tribunal.
Apart from Magistrate Su, only Junze knew about this crime.
It was impossible for the family to go to Jiangnan to question Magistrate Su in such a short time.
This alone was enough to plunge her into an abyss of eternal destruction.
Gu Yu suddenly thought of what Junze said to her: "Sometimes, I really wish you were dead..."
She could hold her head high and ignore everyone's slander, but she could only bow her head before Junze's truth.
Dillo continued to list her crimes:
"Always serving the saints, not knowing how to advise and admonishing, being good at favoring and harming the government, there are seven sins.
The saint bowed without hesitation, and Gu Yu showed no worries. Every time he came to see him, he talked and laughed as usual. This was the eighth sin.
To seize a maid by force is shameless and shameless. This is the ninth crime.
If a slave is allowed to do evil and has no proper discipline, it can be seen that he is rampant, which is one of the ten sins."
Finally, Di Luo slapped the table, showing a hateful face, and angrily scolded Gu Yu:
"Gu Yu, you are full of evildoers and ignore the laws of nature. What else can you say?"
Gu Yu's face turned pale, and he looked around at everyone and said: "With so many crimes, you must have spent a lot of effort to sort them out."
Di Luo said: "Gu Yu, the sinner! Even now, you still don't know how to repent and maliciously slander me."
Gu Yu looked indifferent and said: "If you have any personal or physical evidence, please present it. I will play with you slowly."
Dilo said: "Bring all the witnesses."
Jingzhao Mansion buzzed with more than a dozen people coming in.
Gu Yu's memory was amazing, and he said: "Let's start from the first point. You deceived the Holy Emperor, secretly helped the students to cheat in the imperial examinations, and you have failed the Emperor's favor. Who will stand up and testify?"
A junior official from the Ministry of Etiquette stood up and said: "Xiaoguan once stayed vigil with Mr. Gu Xiaogong during the joint examination. After the Gongyuan burned down, twelve students were injured. Instead of suspending their scientific examination, Mr. Gu Xiaogong allowed doctors to treat their injuries.
, instead, several separate compartments were set up. When Mr. Gu visited one by one, he talked a lot with several of the students. Seven of the twelve students were on the list, including Ding Xiaoji, the number one scholar."
Gu Yudao: "Should this first crime be mentioned together with the second crime? They are servile and charming, collude with each other, sow discord between the king and his ministers, causing the government orders to fail. Five of these seven people happened to be selected by me to serve in the Wenhan Division, too."
What a coincidence, right?"
The official from the Ministry of Rites said: "That's exactly why seven of the twelve people were on the list, and five more were selected by you to join the Wenhan Division. Among them, Gao Huai was even arranged by you to go to Yunlu, a famous rich county.
county.
I heard that Gao Huai became acquainted with the young master during last year's symposium. This spring, he has been in frequent contact with you to help you make a name for yourself, and his behavior is really suspicious."
Some scholars who were watching at the door were filled with indignation and said: "The imperial examination is for selecting officials for the imperial court. How can you practice joint sitting in front of the Gongyuan and at the same time be selfish and open a back door for students you know well?"
Gu Yu faced the student who had just raised his voice and said, "You have to know that if I hadn't proposed the symposium last year, it wouldn't have been possible. Without me this spring, we would still be members of a humble family and aristocratic families."
There is no need to say too much, any scholar with a brain can understand Gu Yu’s contribution in it.
Gu Yu turned to the junior official of the Ministry of Rites and said: "Then please ask the Ministry of Rites to post the test papers of the seven people, so that scholars all over the world can see whether they are worthy of entering the Jinshi list. In addition, you might as well enter the Wenhan Division and catch the five people."
Let me ask you carefully how they colluded with me.
And that Gao Huai, since we think he is not worthy of being the magistrate of Yunlu County, we can also send people to Yunlu County to investigate and see the changes that have taken place in Yunlu County after Gao Huai took office."
The words left the official in the Ministry of Rites speechless.
Ju Zishi said: "Do as she said. Go and turn out the test papers of the candidates and ask the Confucian scholars to make a public judgment. In addition, find the five Wenhan bachelors from the Wenhan Division and invite Gao Huai to the capital."
Di Luo looked at Ju Zi Shi, wondering why Ju Zi Shi had kicked Gu Yu out of the Criminal Department and now defended him everywhere.
But they sang in harmony and settled the matter. Dillo could only say: "Let's not mention these two items for the time being. We will wait for the witnesses to arrive before the trial."
Gu Yu sneered and said: "Article 3: In the name of administration, human lives are taken lightly and innocent people are killed indiscriminately. Who is the witness?"
A peasant woman and a little boy came out crying and knelt down and said: "My family had a few quarrels with the officers and soldiers who came to measure the land, and they were killed by the officers and soldiers. My father-in-law and brother-in-law were also seriously injured.
"
Gu Yu looked at Di Luo and said, "Master Di has been in Dali Temple for many years. Why can't he even try a case? He can only find witnesses from one side. Why don't you call the officers and soldiers who committed the murder?"
Di Luo said: "Go and bring the officers and soldiers who killed people!"
When the murderer was fighting with this family, the man from this family hit him on the head with a rake.
The civilians fought with the officers and suffered a blow first, not to mention that the officer was injured, so it was difficult for him to call him.
Di Luo said: "The officers and soldiers are still doing evil in Changzhong County and have not come over yet."
Gu Yu questioned: "Since you know that he killed someone, you still let him do evil in Changzhong County. Mr. Di, you are perfunctory and neglecting your duties. Can I intervene with you?"
Di Luo stood up and said: "Gu Yu! Human life is at stake, don't mess around!"
Gu Yu said to Di Luo: "You know that human life is at stake, yet you let those who hurt others get away with it, but you kneel on my head for the crime of murder."
Before Di Luo could say anything else, Gu Yu looked at the woman and said, "May I ask this sister-in-law, how many people do you have in your family and how many acres of land do you have?"
The woman was speechless.
Gu Yu asked again: "Do you know why we need to count people and measure land?"
The woman became excited and said: "You want to implement the land equalization system, take back the land we have worked hard to cultivate, and wait until next year to impose taxes!"
Gu Yudao: "Can the land you reclaim every year be cultivated? From what you just said, your husband, father-in-law, and brother-in-law all died at the hands of soldiers. So based on the minimum number of people and cultivated land, three men can cultivate 210 acres.
land, you, a woman, can cultivate 30 acres of land.
My brother-in-law’s wife, your mother-in-law, and other relatives, if you didn’t tell me, I’ll just assume they’re not here, and I won’t calculate it separately. According to the past taxation, several men have to pay 150 acres of grain, and you, a woman, have to pay 20 acres of grain.
. Regardless of whether the land is fertile or not, and whether there are droughts or floods, can your family cultivate 170 acres of land a year?"
The woman shook her head under Gu Yu's questioning.
Gu Yudao: "If not, who will help you plant the land?"
