第148杨乃武案(5)

The confession was recorded, and Xiao Baicai painted the confession. Liu Xitong immediately sent someone to spread the word Yang Naiwu. He passed the imperial examination and became a gentleman, and the title was also "master". Even when he went to the county government, he asked Liu Xitong to greet each other in person. He sat down politely and took Xiao Baicai to offer him. Of course, he changed it and deleted the words about "Master Liu". Not only did he confess, he also brought Xiao Baicai to the flower hall and confronted him.

Yang Naiwu knew at a glance that the confession was obtained by the torture. Therefore, he made up his mind to overturn the entire case. "In the spring weather in October, Ge Pinlian was suspended for four days, so how could he not have a corpse? Now he is stubborn and prejudiced, and he is threatened by a weak woman and punished him. Why not ask for it? There is nothing wrong with nothing to talk about confrontation or confrontation!"

These words were said very sharply. Liu Xitong was angry and very angry, but she couldn't touch him, so she had to sneer, "You are a new imperial examination officer, why can't I do anything to you?" He shouted, "Send the guests!"

Yang Naiwu felt that Liu Xitong was completely helpless, but he made a mistake in his plan. Liu Xitong wrote overnight and personally drafted a document, listing Yang Naiwu's past lawsuits, interfering in official affairs, inciting the bad deeds of rural ignorance, resisting food and rent resistance, as well as the sudden death of Ge Pinlian, Ge Bi's confession, and rumor that Yang Naiwu dared not confront him when he was in the case. He believed that "the various evil deeds of the juren are nothing different from animals, reading poetry and books in vain, and humiliating the scholars' should be scolded.

He invited the county's academic officials to come. This person was mediocre and weak. He would do whatever Liu Xitong said. He immediately listed the title and sent a provincial government in history, from the prefecture to the Tao, from the Tao to the province, and from the consulting government to the court. In just three days, he returned to the county and reported his life with great satisfaction.

Such a passage only eliminated Yang Naiwu's scholar, but still could not be eliminated, because the etiquette of the Juren must be approved by the Ministry for the removal of the Juren, and it will never be approved so quickly. But even so, it can make Liu Xitong overjoyed and sent Yang Naiwu again. This time the situation is different. His scholar has been removed and he has to kneel down and reply as usual in the common people. However, Yang Naiwu has been eating in the public office for many years, and is familiar with the matter of punishment and reputation, and there is no loophole in his words. Liu Xitong is not so easy to eat. After a day of trial, there is no result.

Liu Xitong thought it was wrong and wanted to remove the case from the house. He had a famous criminal priest named Tian Shoushan. Because of his free poetry, wine, and good at gold and stone, he got the nickname of Tian Huang. Although Tian Huang was cowardly, he was loyal and honest. He thought that although he had a confession from Xiao Baicai, there was a section of Yang Naiwu's confession. She said that Yang Naiwu gave her arsenic on the fifth day of the 10th month and asked her to kill her husband. On the fifth day of the 10th month, Yang Naiwu was at the Yue family in Nanxiang to hold a family dinner for the high school juren. Although he was taking a nap for two hours and couldn't figure out the direction for the time being, he could not solve this flaw. I was afraid that the case would be rejected when it arrived in the house.

If a serious case of a crime or aft or a crime is sentenced to death, it must be heard from the county and the government, and the trial will be transferred from the three courts after the autumn trial. In the county, when encountering such a major case, it should be reported to the government immediately, called "First Report". When the case is reported, the case is unclear, so it is generally very simple. After the trial has a certain result, the whole case will be resolved, but it will be very careless. If there are any unclear and untrue things, it will be called "Refutation". The case rejection means that the county magistrate handled it poorly, not only will the criminal be transferred, but the official business is back, which will cause a lot of trouble, but it will also lose face and affect the performance appraisal.

But Liu Xitong was fighting with the idea of ​​killing people with a knife: the prefect of Hangzhou Prefecture was Chen Lu, a native of Nanjing. He was a juren. He was stubborn and self-righteous. What he hated the most was a person who had a literary talent but had no knowledge. He did not go on the right path. He bullied people in his hometown, used the people to threaten the government, and used the fish of the villagers in the government. He was both faced and had a master and a ghost. He was so hateful that he was like a person like Yang Naiwu!

Even if Chen Lu refutes his case, there is no need to be afraid. It will take several months to go back and forth. At that time, the ministry will get the official documents to eliminate Yang Naiwu's reputation. Even if Yang Naiwu transfers it back, it will be better to punish him! If he doesn't believe it, he will not ask for help! After thinking about this, he has made up his mind and transferred Yang Naiwu to Hangzhou Prefecture.

When he arrived at Hangzhou Prefecture, the approval from the department also arrived. This time, Chen Lu had no scruples and let go of his work. Under the punishment of the great punishment, Yang Naiwu was scolded. By early November, a file in the case was released to the provincial censor's office. The censor's office was named Kuai Hesun, whose courtesy name was Shixiang. He was originally from Wujiang, Jiangsu Province and was from Daxing County, Shuntian Prefecture. He was born at the foot of the emperor and said that a very beautiful Beijing film was also contaminated with the style of many of the great men. The case was filled with Longjing tea and exquisite hookahs. From time to time, he had to pick his nails and smell snuff.

But Kuai Hesun was just a mediocre person who acted beautifully and was still a mediocre person who ignored the lives of the people. After a trial, he saw that the confession of the two people was not different, and then he transferred it to the governor personally for trial.

The head of a province in Zhejiang is Yang Changjun, whose courtesy name is Shiquan, and he is from Hunan. Like Weng Tonghe, he has been born once every twelve years and is extremely rare in the tribute. Because of his outstanding fame, Yang Changjun is quite arrogant in Zhejiang, and has no scruples in everything, but his reputation is not bad. When encountering such a serious case of rebellion, he dare not ignore it. He sent a man named Zheng Xiying to Yuhang County to investigate secretly.

Although it was a secret investigation, Liu Xitong and Chen Hu were not afraid. In their opinion, Yang Zhongcheng sent Zheng Daling to investigate in secret, which was obviously necessary to adjust him. As long as you spend money, there was nothing that could not be done! The wool left was on the sheep, so he got money from Yang Naiwu's house to do it perfunctorily.

In the 25th year of Xianfeng, the world was prosperous, the people were prosperous, and the prices were extremely low. Zheng Xiying was settled with 100 taels of silver. He brought back a document with Yuhang County. Unexpectedly, Yang Changjun lost his temper: it turned out that Zheng Xiying had to investigate secretly, but now it was the endowment of the two parties to obtain the same title, which lost the original intention of the secret investigation. Some people said they would send people to Yuhang County again, but some people thought that this would delay the deadline and delay the New Year was very unsuitable.

When the two sides met the governor, Yang Changjun still agreed with the latter's opinion, but Yu Zheng Xiying was very dissatisfied - naturally this kind of thing could not be hidden from him - called him and scolded him fiercely.

On the side of the Yang family, Yang Naiwu has an older sister, a girl with a bearded girl, and her husband's surname is Ye, and is known as Ye Yang. She knew that her younger brother had not done such a kind of act that was harmful to nature, and no matter what, she would save her younger brother's life.

Ye Yang took two ways. One was to find a retired master named Zou Guansheng. This man was skilled in swords and pens and was proficient in laws and regulations. However, for a word difference, he killed a thief who should not have died. He was the only son of this family, and he was unjustly killed. His mother and wife died of illness soon afterwards. Master Zou felt that he had committed a crime, and was disheartened and returned to his hometown.

After Master Zou's guidance, Ye Yang and Zhan Shanzheng (he is Yang Naiwu's brother-in-law) knew that this case had become an ironclad case in Zhejiang. If you were wrong in the end, from governor Yang Changjun to magistrate Liu Xitong, you would be punished very severely! For his own wealth and life, these people could not allow the case to be overturned. So the only way is to control Beijing - the so-called sue for the imperial complaint!

Around the tenth year of Xianfeng, the emperor had already made an order for the people to sue the people and made it clear to the world, and officials in various provinces were not allowed to leave any difficulties or intimidation. However, the ancient saying that the people should not fight with officials was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. As long as the people had a glimmer of hope, they would not dare to do such stupid things that dared to take the big picture of the world. Moreover, Beijing Control has very strict regulations, and they would definitely not be able to sue just by wanting to.

To explain in Zou Guansheng's words, there are two conditions. The first is that if you have been tried in the Supreme Court of Zhejiang, you still feel wronged, so you can go to the capital to sue, "You have this condition. The second one is difficult," said Zou Guansheng.

"What is the second condition?" Zhan Shanzheng asked.

"The second is to ask the content of the case. If the Beijing Registration's submission is verified with the original case, 'there are only minor differences and differences, and those who have no connection with the seriousness of the crime' will not be tried again. Instead, those who overturn the case will have to be punished. It must be the kind of "those that are completely inconsistent with most cases and are of great importance', which can only be accepted."

"This is also in agreement!" Zhan Shanzheng asked, "Zhejiang News Agency said that my brother-in-law killed someone, but it actually didn't. This is not consistent with the case, right? A murder case is of course a serious matter."

"Yes, but how to find the evidence is worth studying."

"Then, if the Beijing Control is accurate, will the ministry re-examine it?"

"This is not necessarily the case. There are three methods in the note document. One is to submit the entire case to the Ministry of Justice to be tried, the second is to submit it to the governor for trial, and the third is to send the imperial envoy minister to the province under its jurisdiction to review. Please make an order to decide these three methods."

After learning from Master Zou, Ye Yang and Zhan Shanzheng found another person, named Chen Zheng, and Yang Naiwu, both of whom were the juren who passed the subject and were preparing to leave Hangzhou and go to Beijing to participate in the examination.

Chen Zheng was loyal and honest, and knew that there were disadvantages. What's more important is that Chen Lu was in the Hangzhou Prefecture and served as a nurse. Zhejiang students had long hated him, so they made no promises and promised that after going to Beijing, they must explain this matter clearly to the Zhejiang Beijing officials in Beijing, and they don't believe that Chen can cover the sky with one hand?

Zhan Shanzheng and Ye Yang were naturally very happy, and at the same time they had an understanding: this case has become an example of how local officials who are not from Zhejiang are harming Zhejiang. In order to maintain their hometown, fellow Zhejiang fellows in Beijing must use Yang Naiwu to express their case - this is a very favorable change.

Chen Zheng arrived in Beijing on the tenth day of the second month, and the days before the examination were still long. He was busy running for this case first. He found a man named Zhu Zhi, whose courtesy name was Mingsheng, and he was also from Zhejiang. In other words, Chen Zheng's cousin was a juren. Military Machinery Zhangjing is commonly known as Xiaojunji. The most popular people in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces have always been gathering in literary style, and Zhejiang people are even more prominent. Now, the most famous people in Military Machinery Zhangjing are two people, one is Xu Gengshi and the other is Zhu Xueqin.

Zhu Zhi also knew about the case that happened in his hometown, but it was heard from him and unknown. Chen Zheng said in detail, "No wonder!" He said this, "The Ministry of Justice is very cautious about this case and has not yet been finalized. I will pay attention to this matter and wait for the memorial of the Ministry of Justice to see what it said and make the truth."
