Chapter 298
Guo Jingping got to Jiang Huaipong and put two chess games on Jiang Huaipong. Only then did Mr. Jiang come back, enter the house and say hello to Guo Jingping, and then start yelling about fatigue.
Jiang Huai stepped forward and pinched his brother's shoulders, "Have you eaten with me?"
"I used two meals before and after." Mr. Jiang said bitterly.
Jiang Huai immediately ordered someone to prepare hawthorn tea for his second brother to digest food. "Qianting came here specifically to wait for his second brother to have dinner together. Why not have the second brother to have tea? Is it better for his second brother to have dinner with Qianting?"
Qianting is the face of Guo Jingping. Guo Jingping originally had only name but no word. When he married the bride and returned to Beijing, his wife married him one, meaning that Guo Jingping went through thousands of pavilions from Qingxi to Kang'an.
Mr. Jiang nodded, "Brother is coming back soon, let's have a meal together."
Guo Jingping asked with a smile, "My second brother has been out for less than two hours, why did he use two meals?"
Mr. Jiang sighed, "I did a big thing today. You know that I have always had a head and a tail, and my head was so shaking that I couldn't get it out of the way. I'm going to finish it."
Guo Jingping asked very cooperatively, "Second brother, let me tell you, I am locked up in Qianniuwei Camp every day, and I am almost blind and deaf."
Mr. Jiang happily took the hawthorn tea handed over by his third brother and began to talk about his feat of saving people from the sea of blood today. It was not until the food was served, and his elder brother Jiang Song stopped him, "Change barley tea, talk about something else first, let's talk about this after the meal."
Mr. Jiang obediently turned on the next article and told him why he went to the Ministry of Justice. "Li Yanguang said that he killed the son of the wealthy businessman of the surname Liu in Qi County, and the magistrate of Qi County blatantly sheltered the person with the surname Liu. I just thought that this family with the surname Liu must be more than an ordinary merchant! Whose relatives do you guess he is?"
"Whose family belongs?" Guo Jingping and Jiang Huai asked in unison.
Mr. Jiang was selling a lawsuit, "Think about it, which official surnamed Liu in Kang'an is from Qi County, Jingji?"
Liu is a big surname, and many of them are Kang An's surname. Seeing his second brother's expression with gloating, Guo Jingping asked, "Yijiang Hou Liu's family?"
Mr. Jiang looked at Guo Jingping with a grudge, "How long have you been to Qianniuwei?"
"Half a month." Guo Jingping said honestly.
Mr. Jiang wanted to beat him up, "What a half month! You went to Qianniuwei's document and came down in early June. It has been three and a half months so far! Liu Ji was from Qianniuwei's home. You stayed in Qianniuwei for three and a half months, but you didn't even know where Liu Ji's hometown was?!"
Guo Jingping giggled foolishly, Jiang Song glared, "You just talk nonsense! Qianting returned to his hometown after receiving the transfer order. How many days did he come back? Besides, he went to Qianniuwei as a job, and he was not sent by the Ministry of Revenue to check his household registration, how could he know these idiots?"
Mr. Jiang became honest immediately after being scolded by his elder brother.
Jiang Huai immediately smoothed out the situation, "Since it is not Yijiang Hou, then it is Liu Shoucheng, the young minister of Dali Temple?"
"By the way!" Mr. Jiang Er took a sip of the newly changed barley tea, "I thought about it when I was at the execution ground. Qi County is in the capital of the Gyeonggi, under the emperor's eyes! The Li Yanguang case actually passed through Jingzhao Prefecture, the Ministry of Justice, and the Dali Temple. The case was closed with Li Yanguang's death penalty. The backer of the Li family in Qi County must be among these three yamen and hold real power. Today, I went to the Ministry of Justice to inquire, and it was true! Liu Shoucheng's ancestral home is Qi County!"
Jiang Song frowned, "Since you think of this, why did you go to the execution platform to save Li Yanguang?"
This is something that affects the whole body.
Although the Great Zhou Dynasty used heavy punishments to deter the people in legislation, and there were more than 500 crimes involving the death penalty, the Zhou emperor ruled the country with "benevolence", respected Confucian benevolent politics, regarded people's lives, and regarded prudent punishment as a virtue. Therefore, when sentencing, "the legislative system is strict and the use of the law is forgiven", and rebelling against the death penalty is an extremely cautious thing.
According to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, cases of death sentences must be reviewed and reviewed. Only those who are unforgivable and guilty will be sentenced to death. In the fourth year of Jinglong, Jingzhao District, namely Kang'an City and the 12 surrounding counties were sentenced to death and beheaded by Qiu, and only twenty-eight people were sentenced to death.
Li Yanguang's father and wife both died at the hands of Liu Can. After that, Liu Can aggressively beat and smashed the Li family. Li Yanguang could no longer bear it and killed him. This was not among the most unforgivable and should not be sentenced to be executed. However, after several reviews and reviews, he was finally pushed to the criminal stage.
If Li Yanguang succeeds in reincarnation, the three yamen of Jingzhao Prefecture, the Ministry of Justice, and the Dali Temple will all be responsible for the crime of inadvertent supervision and dereliction of duty. The one with the most serious crime is Dali Temple. Not to mention the wrath of the emperor, even the censor's saliva will have to drown them!
As the official of the Jingzhao Prefecture, Jiang Erye was sent to the prison to behead him but took the stage to save people. This was equivalent to destroying his own platform. Although the people would praise him a few times, in the eyes of all officials, they were extremely ignorant of the current affairs.
So after the news of Mr. Jiang Erzhan who went to the criminal platform to rescue people reached the six ministries' yamen, officials of the Ministry of Rites verbally praised Mr. Jiang Erzhan for his concern for the people, but Jiang Song was not happy at all. In his opinion, the extremely smart second brother should not do such a stupid thing.
How could Mr. Jiang Er know the truth that his elder brother could understand? He smiled bitterly and told the truth, "Brother, third brother, Qianting, I didn't want to care at that time. But when I heard the sound of the head falling to the ground, when Li Qing knelt on the punishment stage without a single tear, I didn't listen to my orders and jumped on my own."
The three of them were silent, and Jiang Song patted his second brother on the shoulder, "You are just too soft-hearted." The most unfair thing to be an official is soft-hearted.
"The second brother is a bodhisattva's heart and a true and good man." Guo Jingping said sincerely.
Jiang Huai refilled the tea for his second brother, with a worried face on his face.
Mr. Jiang sighed, "A good person doesn't live long. I never want to be a good person."
"What nonsense!" Jiang Song glared.
Mr. Jiang immediately changed his words, "I am kind to others and be blessed by God. I will definitely live a hundred years with my eldest brother and my third brother!"
Guo Jingping...
"Qianting will live a hundred years!"
Guo Jingping smiled silly, "I'm far worse than my second brother. I'm content if I can live for 80."
Everyone...
After this interruption, the atmosphere in the house eased again. Mr. Jiang Er continued, "The Ministry of Justice must not want Li Yanguang to revise his confession. It is not good for anyone, so his flesh and blood is indispensable. I originally thought that the officials of the Ministry of Justice and Dali Temple would vent their anger. Although Li Yanguang suffered some hardships, he would not lose his life. But Liu'er said that the jar that Li Qing brought today was the one I used when I went to Li's house to have a drink five years ago. I thought that I had a good relationship with the Li family, and wanted to help Li Yanguang to get out of the Ministry of Justice. "
"Second brother went to find who is the master of the Ministry of Justice?" Guo Jingping asked curiously.
Mr. Jiang shook his head, "It is better to take care of the county magistrates now. You can't find officials to be officials, but you have to find someone who is executed. Your second brother, I will give up my value and invite the constables of the Ministry of Justice, the yamen, the prison guards, and the prison guards to drink and give them silver. These people are the key, because if you have a stick, whether your skin is broken or your bones are broken, it is all in the hands of these people."
Guo Jingping asked again, "If the adults from Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice insisted on using heavy punishment to abolish Li Yanguang, these people would have to obey their orders, right?"
