Chapter 705 Killing Mother (2)
"Let him come in. Please search! The fastest updated novel," Wang Ju said unhappily.
Wang Anli walked in.
For Wang Anshi, Wang Anguo, the two treasure brothers, Wang Anguo. Wang Anli had a lot of conflicts with Wang Ju, and Wang Anli knew it, so he didn't have any trouble and went straight to the point.
"Zi'an, I've heard about e-political affairs."
"The Prince's Palace, it has nothing to do with you, right?"
"Of course it has nothing to do with me."
It can't be related, it can't be said to be related, otherwise Wang Anli would go into the business.
"Then why did you mention this?"
"Zi'an, please forgive me if you want to forgive me."
"Prince Prince, it's strange. I've been in the south for the past few years. Who did you offend me? Who would you spare me?"
"Zi'an, don't be excited. I heard in Chengdu that the official's house will hold the Ji Qiuming Hall ceremony soon."
The ritual of Jiqiu Mingtang mentioned by Wang Anli is actually the ritual of worshiping the sky in the Song Dynasty. It is divided into three types of rituals. One is the ritual of praying for valleys in the Circular Mound in the first lunar month. This is rarely held in the Song Dynasty and can be ignored. The second is the ritual of the Circular Mound in the south suburbs of the Winter Solstice. This is the most ritual of worshiping the sky. The third is the ritual of Jiqiu Jixinri Mingtang.
Among the previous generations of kings, the most frequent gifts of worshiping the sky during the reign of Emperor Renzong of Song Dynasty. In addition to these three gifts, he also brought his ministers to hold some gifts to the heaven and earth. It cannot be said that it is useless. In ancient times, the grand ceremony of worshiping the sky could more or less discuss the legitimacy of the imperial power to the people, increase the authority of the emperor, and also the reward of the great gift was also an opportunity to win people's hearts. However, each gift would cost more than tens of millions of silos. Therefore, Wang Ju wrote a letter in his early years and deliberately said that he would reduce the number of gifts to the heaven.
However, this year, the country's political achievements are not only not tense, but the national treasury is full. In addition, the good news from the south, it is normal for the court to hold a ceremony to worship the sky.
Maybe Zhao Xu would tell Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Kuangyi in the Mingtang about his contributions, at least the territory has expanded a lot in my hands...
Wang Anli said that on this festive day, the spread of the incident in Yizheng County to the court will destroy this festive atmosphere.
"Also, Yao Xun is the disciple of Uncle Lu Hui."
The two had conflicts. They didn't say anything more than a long time, and Wang Anli left after he finished speaking.
Qiong Niang also heard it in the room, and she said worriedly: "I didn't expect that the magistrate was actually Xianggong Lu's disciple..."
"Bozhou Lu family?" Zhang Nantuo also asked in surprise.
"Shituo, you know the Lu family too."
"I have heard of it in Dali. The Lu family in Bozhou is the first official family in the Song Dynasty." Zhang Nandao was also a little worried. Don't become the deputy prime minister of the Eastern Palace soon. If the Lu family hated Wang Ju and took the lead in dealing with Wang Ju, plus Wang Ju's previous political enemies, Wang Ju would be in trouble.
"It has nothing to do with Uncle Lu Hui," Wang Ju said with a smile.
“Why?”
"Because there was a murder case."
"Mother murder case?"
"This case has happened for a long time. It was a case in Taihu County two years ago. Taihu magistrate Chen Shiru reported that his concubine's mother (stepmother) died suddenly due to heartache. The court issued an edict to allow him to Ding You, so the Chen family died of funerals and returned to the capital. Unexpectedly, as soon as the Chen family arrived in the capital, a slave escaped from the Chen family and went to the Kaifeng government office to prosecute Chen's mother not because of an acute illness. Instead, she died of poisoning. Kaifeng prefect Su Zirong (Su Song, another scientist in the Northern Song Dynasty, had invented the world's first astronomical clock) sent his subordinates to the Chen family to promote the case. It happened that Chen's mother had to be buried before she could be buried. After the offense, Chen's mother opened the coffin and examined the autopsy. After the offense, Chen's mother did die of poisoning. Not only was she poisoned, but she also had a fatal nail on her chest."
“There is something weird.”
“Tell me
"Although she is a concubine's mother, when she was buried, County Magistrate Chen must have such a big nail, is it?"
"Yes. But if it is that simple, it is not worth telling it. After hearing the report from his subordinates, Su Zirong immediately interrogated him. The servants of the Chen family confessed that they were poisoned by the maids with medicine, but they did not kill them. So at night, he nailed them to his sternum, causing Chen's mother to die."
"Ah." Qiong Niang was so scared that she covered her mouth and said, "Where are these servants' courage?"
"I definitely don't have the courage. Su Gong continued to interrogate and found out that it was Chen's wife, Li Shi, and his mother-in-law, had always had a disagreement with his mother-in-law. So he told the maids that the doctor should pay you a lot of money for one day." Wang Ju said this, afraid that Zhang Nantuo would not understand, and explained again: "This doctor refers to Chen Shiru's official position. Therefore, the maids dared to kill Chen's mother. However, this case was delayed in Kaifeng Prefecture for more than half a year, but the case was not closed."
“Huh?”
"The direct reason is not Chen's wife, she can't escape, but did County Magistrate Chen participate?"
"Even if you don't participate, County Magistrate Chen is also aware of it?"
"The little lady is right. Is the Magistrate Chen the time he entered the coffin?"
"There are reasons for delaying, mainly because some officials believe that Chen's wife, Li, did not explicitly kill her mother-in-law, so the law will not die. Although the Supreme Court of Su did not say that Li's father would not die, he insisted that Chen Magistrate Chen was not aware of the situation."
"This is clearly a cover-up."
"The officials also believed that the Supreme Court Su was a shelter and that the mother-in-law was killed. Therefore, they summoned the Supreme Court Su to the palace and said furiously that this person was very evil and he should be poor. However, the Supreme Court Su said that the matter was in the ministry, and the minister dared not speak leniently, nor did he dare to tell him to make it serious."
"eccentric."
"Actually, it's not strange at all. It's mainly because of the background of these two people. Chen Shiru is the only son of Chen Zhizhong, the prime minister of the former dynasty. That's even more so. Her father is Li Zhongshi, the commander of the Three Sessions, and her mother, Lu, is the daughter of Uncle Lu Hui."
“What’s the end?”
"In the end, Su Zirong couldn't hold on, and the truth gradually emerged. After the fact, Li immediately found Madam Lu, and Madam Lu immediately found her father, Uncle Lu, and asked him to clear the matter with the Su Prefect. It is said that Lu Hui was upright and refused her request. However, Uncle Lu Hui did not come forward, but his nephew, Lu Xiya (son of Lu Gongchuo) and Yan Jing (Fu Bi's brother-in-law, Yan Shu's seventh son) interrogated the case."
"So, can Mr. Lu still say that he has not participated?"
"My grandma Qiong, why are you taking it seriously?"
"What happened later?"
"Until last year, the case was delayed for too long, which made the officials very dissatisfied, so they demoted the Supreme Court of Su to Haozhou. In addition, the Censor impeached the Kaifeng Prefecture and transferred the case to Dali Temple for interrogation. It happened that Dali Chief Jia Zhongmin was a new party member and decided that Chen Magistrate Chen was aware of killing his mother. Chen Magistrate Chen's mother-in-law Lu asked for entrusting the case because of fate. As a result, Chen Magistrate Chen Magistrate Lu Xiya and Yan Jing were arrested, and then accused Lu Huishu of personally asking for entrusting the Supreme Court of Su."
"It's possible that yes."
In the Song Dynasty, filial piety was the leader of all virtues. Although the one who killed Chen Shiru's stepmother, he was indeed his mother, not Chen Zhizhong's concubine. In ancient times, this case was undoubtedly a shocking case. Not to mention Su Song's cover-up, Su Song, the old minister of the three dynasties, could he hesitate? Could it be possible to rely on a woman and Lu Xiyayan Jing, who was not very high in official positions?
Therefore, Qiong Niang said it was possible. Wang Ju continued: "It is possible. The government also thinks so, so he issued an edict to go to Haozhou to question it, but Su Song firmly said that it is not enough to falsely abuse someone to die. The government had no choice but to demote Su Prefecture Order to Cangzhou again. The case was transferred to the Censorate for interrogation."
"There are many new parties in the Censorate," Qiong Niang smiled.
"Cai, Li Ding, Shu Dan and others are indeed new parties, so after last autumn, he decided that magistrate Chen would not want to stay in Taihu County to be magistrate, so he accused Li of instigating his maid to kill his mother in order to take advantage of the opportunity of Ding You to return to the capital."
"This is a bit skipped."
"Well, this statement is very forced, and Taihu County is a very good place. My judgment is that Li is a vicious woman. Because of the disagreement between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, she instigated the maid to kill her mother-in-law. After that, the magistrate Chen must have known it. However, he was afraid of his wife, or did not want the situation to expand, so he concealed the murder case. However, he came to the hands of the new party. He must have wanted to use this to attack Uncle Lu Hui until the Lu family. The official family was so wonderful, so he said that Chen Zhi had a son and kept it for sacrifice. How about it? Cai Que, the chief censor, asked the official family back, Chen
Shiru's crime of ruthlessness, but Hao Xie? The official family was speechless and had to use another means to narrow the situation down. He issued an edict saying that Jia Zhongmin, in order to investigate the case in order to exhaust the law, ran to Lu Huishu's house and called his son to the yard, and threatened him with words to force confession. Therefore, the edict issued Jia Zhongmin, Dali's minister Cui Taifu, Dali Shaoqing Yang Ji, and the supervisor's censor He Zhengchen, and others to fine 10 kilograms of copper each to show warning. Cai Zhongcheng quickly settled the case, and the Chen family and his wife and the 19 maids involved in the case were executed. Lu Xiya and Yan Jing were demoted for interfering in the case."
"What about Mr. Lu?"
"It's still Mr. Lu. Because of this case, I said it has nothing to do with Uncle Lu Hui. Although he is an old party, he is a gentle and not so vicious person. At least he will not do anything like Ma Guang and Yang Hui, a literary company. Secondly, the time is wrong. The reason for this vicious rap book is mainly because the official asked me to serve as the political affairs of the magistrate, but the case was settled last year and there is still some impact. At this time, Mr. Lu would only be careful."
"Since that's the case, the official, why did Wang Anli deliberately point out that Yao Magistrate was a disciple of Uncle Lu Hui?"
"The current Censor General is not Cai Que, but Li Ding. He is also a new party. He has more intense means and stronger revenge. It just so happens that the impact of this case has not yet subsided. As long as the case arrives in the capital, Li Ding will definitely investigate the case again in order to completely defeat Uncle Lu Hui. In that way, I will be deeply involved. Therefore, Wang Anli warns me that the big things will be turned into small things and small things will be turned into small things, and let the Qiongzhou government handle the case."
"Should officials be slandered?"
"My grandma Qiong, you said it wrong again. In his heart, what is written in the song book is not slander, but facts. I am a cruel butcher who harms the country and the people."
"Official, was this person instigated?"
"Not that, although the songbook has vilified me infinitely, but aside from these attacks and slander, it is almost close to the truth, and with him, it is impossible to touch. However, Yizheng County is so close to Chengdu, although it is not his instigation, he has 90% of the songbook that exists, at least he knows that someone is deliberately slandering me."
"What should we do?"
"Don't worry, Me Sheng, you have a few people and civilians dressed up and listen to it in various places in Chengdu."
"Here."
A few days later, Yelong Meesheng came back and reported: "Shaobao, there are no songs about Shaobao in the market, but I heard a message."
"what?"
"It is said that when we entered Chengdu City, the Chengdu government secretly notified the rap club to not rap any song books about Shaobao. It also said that Yizheng County was not satisfied with Shaobao because of Shaobao, so he ruthlessly killed more than a dozen people."
"This Wang Anli is really not a thing." Qiong Niang said angrily.
She was angry not only because Wang Anli was in disguise and threatened Wang Ju, but also because of this smear notice, but also because of Wang Ju's stayed in this inn and asked a doctor to treat her. Wang Anli came to the door. I believe the Chengdu officials also knew about it, but after a few days, no official came to visit? Wang Ju is about to be the deputy prime minister of the East Mansion, is this normal?
"My wife, don't be angry. God can still live if he commits evil, but man can't live if he commits evil." Wang Ju said.
It is unlikely that I would like to find the latter who actually wrote this songbook. However, Wang Ju doesn't mind Wang Anli's courage to do this, so he let Wang Anli be buried with him!
