The tone was slow and the voice was deep, but Liu Jiyu subconsciously sat up straight, calmed down, and said as naturally as possible: "Your Majesty, please review, I will tell you everything I know."

"Ten days ago, you incited hundreds of people to follow you on the road?"

"yes."

"Why are you inciting these people to go with you? What do you think?"

Hearing this, Liu Jiyu said with an upright face: "I have no intention of lowering my rank. I just want to advise the country and speak directly to my father."

Xia Yuan continued: "I would like to ask again, why are these hundreds of people willing to go with you?"

"My thoughts are the same as those of a lower official. I advise the country, impeach traitors and traitors to my father, and list the evils and evils of our Ming Dynasty."

"Do you know what kind of behavior you are doing? What kind of crime is it?"

Liu Jiyu's face became more righteous and awe-inspiring, "I don't know what the crime is, but I will not hesitate to advise the country!"

Hearing this, Xia Yuan suddenly asked: "After the turmoil in Fengyingku, were you scared, confused, and at a loss?"

"."

Hearing this, Liu Jiyu just wanted to reply, but Xia Yuan did not give him a chance. Instead, he pressed forward step by step, "You are afraid, you are confused, you don't know what you are doing, and so are hundreds of people. They beat the Shangguan, including one

According to the Ming Dynasty law, how should we deal with the Minister of Hubu?"

"I'm a lower official."

"Are you saying you don't know? Do you think you are not guilty if you don't know, or do you think your lack of knowledge can reduce your guilt?

According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, beating a superior official will result in dismissal from office at the very least, but for serious cases like you, you will be exiled and your wife and daughter will also be implicated."

"You actually thought about this at the time, right? You thought about your family, and that your wife, children, and children would also be affected by you."

"I"

"When you call yourself a lower official, do you forget your superiority and inferiority?"

Xia Yuan's tone suddenly increased. Liu Jiyu trembled and subconsciously shouted, "I'll be the official."

"You thought about your wife, children, and children, and you felt scared and frightened. There was only one thing on your mind at that time."

Xia Yuan's tone became softer and he asked gently: "Tell me, what were you thinking at that time?"

"What I want to do," said Liu Jiyu, suddenly realized, "What I want to do is to give advice to my father, to impeach these corrupt officials, and to give advice to the Ming Dynasty and the world."

"Rather than what?"

"Without it, the official would have been unable to speak clearly and could not enunciate clearly."

"Can't you pronounce clearly?" Xia Yuan smiled and patted the armrest of the chair with his hand, "Okay, since you can't pronounce clearly, let me tell you, I'm pretty eloquent.

Rather than sit back and wait for death, it is better to go to Shangshu. This beating of Shangguan and causing a big fuss in the treasury should be characterized as punishing corrupt officials on behalf of the country, and as a side project of the Qing monarch to punish the sycophants."

"Perhaps because of your loyalty to the country, your father may give you a lighter sentence, or even pardon you, which is not impossible.

After all, there was an incident in the imperial dynasty where Wang Zhen was beaten for traitoring a member of the party. This happened in the court hall and people were beaten to death. However, in the end, all the ministers were found not guilty.

You, an assistant professor of the Imperial Academy who is familiar with classics and history, thought of this, so you thought of Shangshu.

But you can't go alone. If you go by yourself, others will say nothing. It's better to ask more people to go. The more people go, the better, and the louder the voice, the better. So you can raise your arms and shout, inciting hundreds of people to go with you, but like this

?”

Liu Jiyu didn't expect that this young Shangguan had guessed his own psychology clearly, but he still said: "To tell you my Lord, no. The lower official didn't think so much at first. He just wanted to explain all the shortcomings to his father.

Not for myself, only for the country, only for the world."

"Then you are so lazy that you can't go to bed in the morning or at night, so why do you rush to do it right after you make a big fuss in Feng Ying Ku and beat up Shangguan?"

Liu Jiyu squirmed his lips a few times and replied: "Time is also about luck."

"The same goes for everyone else?"

"yes."

Seeing him like this, Xia Yuan couldn't help but cheer up and put away the trace of distraction in his heart, "Do you know who hates you the most now?"

"They are the corrupt officials who were impeached by us."

"Of course they hate you, so do you think the people you incited to go to school hate you?"

"Why do they hate the official?"

"You don't know?"

"I don't know, my subordinate."

"Is it good to live in prison?"

Liu Jiyu was startled, but then he seemed to realize it and said firmly: "It's acceptable."

Hearing this, Xia Yuan actually laughed, turned around and said to the Jinyi guards: "Did you hear that? He said that your prison is acceptable."

The few Jinyi guards also laughed together, "Sir, I have been working in this prison for many years, and no one has ever said such words, but this is very new."

"Since it's okay to live in this prison, and now there are only four days left before the New Year, what if your wife and children are brought back to reunite with you and spend New Year's Eve?"

Hearing this, Liu Jiyu lost his temper and whispered: "The official said something wrong. It will not be comfortable at all to live in the imperial prison."

"It's not easy for you, and it's not easy for the others. Compared with the imperial edict, the prison of the Ministry of Punishment is like heaven.

Originally, you could have been imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment on the charge of assaulting a superior officer. Even the Emperor would have thought that you were in arrears because of salary arrears, because you have no salary, your wife and children have no money, and no food for the New Year.

I beat someone out of desperation. It is excusable. I will give you a lenient sentence, and at most, you may be dismissed from office."

"but now"

Xia Yuan rubbed the handrail and looked at the dark cell. It had no windows and could not receive sunlight from the outside world, as if he was in a netherworld.

"But now she is imprisoned in this imperial prison for the crime of forcing her to marry."

When Liu Jiyu heard the word "forced into a uterus", his face showed obvious panic for the first time.

Xia Yuan also turned his gaze back at this time, staring straight at him, his voice seemed to come from his belly, with a deep tone, "Do you think those people hate you?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Yuan leaned forward, and his eyes stared straighter. Liu Jiyu felt that those eyes were like an abyss, as if they were about to suck him in. At this time, the light words came over,

"Actually, you know that they hate you. After all, it was you who incited them to go to the hospital. At the beginning, each of you was at a loss, scared, and panicked. In this kind of mood, people are not sober.

So you raise your arms and call out, and they respond one after another, and then they go to the hospital together.

But after being imprisoned in this imperial prison dungeon for so many days, of course you have figured it out. In fact, if you had not gone to Shangshu in the first place, you might have been given a lighter sentence, but now, you are charged with forcing the uterus."

"Do you regret it?"

Liu Jiyu seemed to have lost his strength. Although he was still sitting there, his body collapsed completely. "What's the use of regrets?"

He whispered in his mouth, and after a long time he raised his head and asked in a dry voice: "Sir, what will happen to my wife and children's family due to my crime?"

"What do you think?"

clan execution

These two words flashed through Liu Jiyu's mind. After all, this was forced into the palace. Even if the family was not executed, the family would be confiscated and the whole family would be exterminated.

Thinking of these, his heart dropped to the bottom of the valley. The valley was very deep, and there was a pool of ice below, which made his whole body stiff and froze his heart to death.

He sat there in silence and didn't say a word for a long time. After a long time, he asked hoarsely: "Sir, may I ask what official position you have now?"

"Like you, he served as an official in the court and served in the Ming Dynasty."

Hearing this, Liu Jiyu smiled, an extremely miserable smile, "I am in such a situation now, how can I still be an official?"

"Then do you still want to be an official?"
