059 The Confession
A carriage stopped when passing by Qinren Square, and the servant hurriedly asked the person in the car: "Master, the road ahead is blocked, do you want to go around Xuanyang Square?"
"What is happening ahead?"
"There is a quarrel ahead, and there are still a number of carriages waiting."
When Han Xiu heard this, he immediately got out of the carriage, and he lived in Yongningfang, not far in front. It was really a detour, which was far away. He stepped forward to see what happened. When he stepped forward, he saw two people curled up on the ground and surrounded by several sergeants. It seemed that he had been beaten.
"Boy, this is the carriage of General Jinwuwei Cheng. Now it was hit by the cart you were pulling goods. General Cheng just said that he would pay 50 pennies. If he said he had no money, he would have to be beaten. ."
"My brothers really don't have such a lot of money. I really can't afford it. Please raise your hands high."
But another person got up and said, "Brother, this is our fault. Our car was just parked on the side of the road. It was their car that hit it."
"Shut up, don't say it." The eldest brother finished speaking, and then begged the sergeant in front of him.
The sergeant kicked him directly, and then shouted: "Brothers, continue to beat him."
Han Xiu believed that these two brothers had said this, and they also stepped forward to stop them. Seeing that these sergeants were wearing third-grade purple court uniforms, they also stopped immediately.
"Where's Cheng Boxian?" Han Xiu didn't ask the others, and asked where the master is.
At this time, the housekeeper of Cheng's house ran forward from the side, and after holding a fist, bowed his head and said, "Han Xiangguo, my master went to the East City to choose a bow."
"Hurry up and call him. Actually, I want to see how he can get fifty sticks from two dealers today."
The housekeeper of Cheng's house didn't dare to say more, and ran away in a hurry. It didn't take long for Cheng Boxian to come out. When he saw Han Xiu, he just gave Han Xiu a polite fist.
Cheng Boxian is General Jinwuwei, the official rank is also the third rank, he is also the brother of Gao Lishi, naturally has no respect for Han Xiu, in his opinion, these so-called state ministers are like revolving lanterns, and they are changed diligently. , There is no need to give too much face at all, and Han Xiu himself is not a child of a big family. He would definitely not dare to change to Xiao Song here today.
Cheng Boxian, Cheng Yaojin's grandson, this guy climbed up in order to be promoted, but he could do anything. He could be regarded as a person who could let go of the dignity of the gentry, and he became a brother with the eunuch Gao Lishi. The gentry always looked down on the eunuchs, and he and Gao Lishi had a good relationship and became brothers with different surnames, which was enough to put him down. I just don't know if Cheng Yao will get up and slap the unfilial grandchildren after getting to know him.
Gao Lishi is the most filial person, and he is very supportive of his adoptive father Gao Yanfu and his biological mother Mai. Originally, Cheng Boxian was okay to agree with Gao Lishi to become brothers. It was not a big problem for Gao Yanfu, Gao Lishi's adoptive father and Mai Shi, his biological mother. The key is that after Gao Yanfu's death, Cheng Boxian ran to his coffin in order to please Gao Lishi, and gave him his beauties as a dutiful son crying in mourning, crying more uncomfortable than his death. Because of this, Cheng Boxian became the laughing stock of the Manchu civil and military and the rural folks.
Cheng Boxian asked disapprovingly: "I don't know why Han Xiang called me?"
"Don't you know General Cheng Cheng?" Han Xiu was angry when he saw him like this, and his voice suddenly became a little higher.
Cheng Boxian didn't care about Han Xiugao's upset, or some rascals said: "Han Xiang, these two boys ran into my car. They should pay for it. Does Han Xiang think, just forget it?"
What he said really made Han Xiu angry, and Han Xiu then said coldly: "Well, General Cheng, if this is the case, then I can only let the Siya of Wannian County handle the matter. "
If Han Xiu's words were told to others, it might be useless, but it would be really useful to Cheng Boxian, because his carriage was over-architected, and it would be no good for him to really make troubles. Cheng Boxian didn't say much, he told the guilty, and then left. This is not a big deal in himself, but he is used to the prestige, and it is the same today.
I thought it would be over, but the next day, Han Xiu learned that the two brothers had been interrupted yesterday. He knew very well that this was what Cheng Boxian had done. Han Xiu was upright and couldn’t rub the sand in his eyes. , Cheng Boxian has decided to bring him down. This requires an opportunity, and this opportunity appeared after half a month.
Too Chang Shaoqing Pan Yu was beaten because he ran into a concubine who was raised in the house and had an affair with others, and that person was Li Meiyu, the county lieutenant of Wannian County. Li Meiyu really didn’t know that the person he beat was too often Shaoqing, and his shot was too cruel, he directly beat Pan Yu to vomit blood, and interrupted one of his hands. It was the concubine's concubine, who hadn't told Li Meiyu what was going on at all, Li Meiyu returned it. When she was just a widow, and when Pan Yu ran into the two of them, Li Meiyu burst into flames.
Now the trouble is a bit big, the Wannian County magistrate had to report the facts truthfully, and finally let Li Longji know about it, and directly decreed to exile Lingnan.
At the Xingqing Hall, Han Xiu said: "Li Meiyu is a small official in Wannian County. The crime was only assaulting others. At that time, Tai Chang Shaoqing was not wearing official uniforms. The crime of exile was given to him. It’s a bit heavier."
Li Longji did not expect that Han Xiu would bring this matter back, let alone him, the other courtiers were the same, and they didn't know what happened to Han Xiu today. New Bayi Chinese website debut
"Then what should be done according to Han Xiangguo's words?" Li Longji was obviously a little unhappy.
But Han Xiu said: "Now that there is a big evil person in the dynasty who has not been punished, but a small official is exiled. Your Majesty thinks this is really feasible?"
Li Longji also heard something, and asked, "Aiqing, who do you mean?"
"Golden Wu general Cheng Boxian, relying on grace, greedy for money, housing chariots, all overstepping, the minister asks your majesty to punish Cheng Boxian first, and then Li Meiyu's crimes."
Li Longji must know what happened to Cheng Boxian. He didn't expect Han Xiu to use Cheng Boxian to stop him. Li Longji's eyes were already extremely unhappy, and his face was ugly, even the courtiers could see it.
But Han Xiu is such a person with strong principles. He doesn't care whether Li Longji is upset, and continues: "If the crime committed by Li Meiyu cannot be tolerated, how can Cheng Boxian not be held accountable? This is a serious crime. If your majesty does not deal with Cheng Boxian, the ministers will not dare to exile Li Meiyu."
To reason, Li Longji couldn’t say. Han Xiu stood there. Even if he felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly, he could only bear it. After blowing his beard and staring at him, Li Longji had to say: "Li Meiyu entered Dali Temple, Deal with it in accordance with the law, I am tired and retired.” (End of this chapter)
