Dengzhou Ayun case.

The cause was that a girl named Ayun was forced to marry an ugly man. Ayun refused to obey, but was tied up and sent to her husband's house. She was humiliated by her fiancé. She was angry, and she injured her fiancé with a knife and cut off one of her fingers.

Afterwards, the husband's family reported to the official, and Ayun confessed, and the magistrate was sentenced to death for "murdering his husband."

The case file came to the prefect. The prefect of Dengzhou claimed that Ayun was forcibly married during the period when he lost his mother and was mourning. He believed that this marriage violated the etiquette and law and was invalid. He could not be considered as "murdering his husband". He did not die, so he exempted Ayun from his death sentence and submitted it to Dali Temple for approval.

However, Dali Temple believed that "the marriage is true in violation of the law and the murder of his own husband is true," and sentenced Ah Yun to death.

The prefect of Dengzhou was dissatisfied and added that Ayun had a "submission" incident and insisted on avoiding the death penalty and wrote a letter again.

Then, the party struggle began.

The two parties had their own bigwigs involved and began a dispute in the court. The lawsuit was fought all the way to the Emperor Shenzong who had just ascended the throne.

Emperor Shenzong saw the dispute between the two sides, handed over the case to the Ministry of Justice.

The Ministry of Justice also stood on the side of Dali Temple, accusing the prefect of Dengzhou of expelling Ayun and sentenced him to death again.

This move suddenly intensified the party struggle. The two giants Wang Anshi and Sima Guang came forward to argue with each other in front of the Shenzong, and each of them attacked each other.

Subsequently, the big men of the court took sides, Chen Shengzhi, Han Jiang, and Lu Gongbi supported Wang Anshi; while Wen Yanbo, Fu Bi and others supported Sima Guang.

Everyone is respected and respected, and it is the current ministers, and ordinary cases have become excuses for party struggles.

These bigwigs argued with each other, and no one could convince anyone. They continued to fight for more than a year. Emperor Shenzong could not bear it and wanted to settle it. After several repetitions, he supported Wang Anshi. After two years, Emperor Shenzong pardoned Ayun with a special pardon, so that Ayun could return home, get married again, get married and have children.

Logically speaking, this ordinary case should end here, but Sima Guang and others did not give up. More than 20 years later, Shenzong passed away and Zhao Xu succeeded to the throne in the early years of Yuanyou, Sima Guang ordered people to arrest A Yun, who was over 40 years old, and sentenced him to hang and executed that month!

It has been six years since Ayun was sentenced to death, and it has been twenty-five years since the initial crime!

Now, Ayun's son is going to seek justice for his mother and sued him at the Censorate.

This once again aroused the vigilance of the two parties, and then quickly attacked each other in order to gain an advantage.

This case caused huge upheavals in the government and the country and spread rapidly.

It was a struggle between the two parties of the "new and old". The Shenzong Dynasty won the "new party" and ended with the "new party" and pardoned Ayun. At the beginning of Yuanyou, Empress Dowager Gao ruled against the government from behind the curtain, Sima Guang and others took power, and started over and sentenced Ayun to death.

The "old party" criticized the "new party" for being "inappropriate in discussing the law", "false law", "forming a clique for personal gain and cracking down on dissidents", and Ayun's crime of murdering his own husband is true.

The "New Party" counterattacked, put forward more legal basis, and even brought out the edict of Emperor Shenzong, criticizing the "old party" for overthrowing the edict of Emperor Shenzong, which was a "unofficial".

The two sides were competing with each other, and the already controversial government was quickly taken away by this case and started a new round of war.

The "Dengzhou Ayun Case" itself is a very small case. The fundamental reason why it rose so rapidly and lasted for more than 20 years is the party struggle.

Now, it’s still a party struggle!

The three legal and judicial committees cannot stop, so they can only ask for instructions from the Political Affairs Hall.

Cai Jing, Cao Zheng, and the new Censor Huang Lu came to the Qingtiaofang and stood in front of Cai Bian.

Huang Lu is a middle-aged fat man who looks steady and has a serious expression and slow movements. He raised his hand and said, "Gong-gong Cai, the one who came to complain is Ayun's son. More than a month ago, Dengzhou suddenly encountered sea breeze and his whole family was in trouble. This son took care of his family's funeral and set off in Beijing to seek justice for his mother."

Huang Lu's tone was also very slow, one by one, very clear and steady.

Cai Bian still remembers this case freshly. It has been repeated over and over again for many years, involving too many people.

He glanced at Cai Jing and Cao Zheng, frowned for a moment, and said, "You Censorate will follow the case?"

Huang Lu looked at Cai Bian and said, "Yes. There are many problems in this case, and the Censorate cannot refuse."

In the view of the Censorate, there are indeed many problems in Ayun's "murder of his husband" case: First, Ayun was forced to marry during the loss of his mother, which violated the etiquette and law, so it naturally cannot count, so murder of the "murder of his husband" cannot be established. The second is to surrender, and according to the law, it should be lenient. In addition, the "husband" has not died, Ayun will not be punished for punishment.

Cai Bian pondered for a while and said, "What are you going to do?"

Cai Bian's words are very meaningful.

This case is no longer about the case itself, it involves years of struggle between the two parties of the "new and old". The direction of the case is directly related to the DPRK Bureau.

Huang Lu didn't look at Cai Jing and Cao Zheng, and his tone was still very slow, saying, "The Censorate recommends a retrial."

Cai Bian glanced at him and said, "Tell me what you really think."

Huang Lu raised his hand and said calmly: "The official wants to overturn the case."

Cai Jing and Cao Zheng looked at him, both of them were solemn and silent.

Huang Lu is Zhang Dun's person, and Zhang Dun is Wang Anshi's assistant, so the relationship here is very clear.

If Huang Lu wants to overturn the case, that is, Zhang Dun wants to overturn the case. Once this case is turned over, Sima Guang and others will be denied.

Once Sima Guang’s “wrong judgment” case, it will be investigated!

This is a revenge and liquidation action against the "old party"!

Cai Bian was as clear as a mirror, hesitated for a while, and said, "What do others say?"

Cai Bian asked about several Shangshus in Beijing.

Huang Lu said: "They didn't speak."

Cai Bian frowned and had a headache. This matter was too complicated and he couldn't make a decision easily.

Thinking that Zhang Dun would come back in a few days, Cai Bian looked at the three chief officials of the three judicial departments in front of him. Suddenly, his expression changed, his eyes slightly opened, and then he frowned, his face was cold, and he paused. He stared at Huang Lu and said in a warning tone: "Press up this case first, don't try. Remember, without my permission, you three judicial departments are not allowed to move! Even if Zhang Dun comes back, you are not allowed to move! If you violate the order, even if Zhang Dun comes back, I can still let you die in Lingnan!"

Cai Jing looked at the younger brother expressionlessly, thinking about his words in his heart.

Because Cai Jing was in a confusion in the reform, his relationship with Cai Bian was gradually drifting away. The two brothers did not regard them as enemies, but they had reached the point of getting tired of each other.

Cao Zheng was also puzzled. Cai Bian and Zhang Dun were both reformists. Even though their ideas were different, they were roughly the same. Moreover, revenge on the "old party" can not only avenge and pave the way for the next revival of the "Xining Law".

Why did Cai Bian suddenly make such harsh words?

Huang Lu looked at Cai Bian with a hint of cold expression on his sincere expression.

Cai Bian knew the hostility in Zhang Dun's heart, stared at Huang Lu, thinking about his relationship with Zhang Dun, and suddenly said in a deep voice: "Come here!"

The imperial guards outside the green tiled room came in immediately, and one of them said: "King Xianggong Cai."

Cai Bian said lightly: "Huang Zhongcheng felt uncomfortable, so he asked him to rest in the side room. Without my permission, he would not be allowed to leave."

Huang Lu, Cao Zheng and Cai Jing's faces suddenly changed!

Cai Bian wants Huang Lu to be under house arrest!

A deputy minister wants to be under house arrest, who has a superior position in the position of censorship, who has given him such courage!

Cao Zheng had a tense face and didn't say anything, and carefully analyzed the problems in his heart.

Cai Bian will definitely not easily put Huang Lu under house arrest. All officials cannot tolerate such a crime, and even more so, the officials cannot tolerate it - unless he has enough reasons!

Cai Jing's eyes flashed. He was thinking about Cai Bian's expression just now, obviously something suddenly happened in his heart.

He knew that his younger brother had differences with Zhang Dun, but he would not break up yet. What were he concerned about when Huang Lu suddenly put him under house arrest?

Huang Lu looked cold and his tone became very fast. He looked at Cai Bian and said, "I would like to ask Mr. Cai to give his subordinates an explanation, otherwise he will not be able to obey his orders."

The position of the Censor Central Chief is extraordinary. Normally, even the priest and the young master can be strong. Even if Huang Lu does not have the backing of Zhang Dun, he is not afraid of Cai Bian.

Cai Bian's face was colder than him and said, "Because Huang Zhongcheng was feeling uncomfortable, please."

Seeing that Cai Bian did not give him any explanation, Huang Lu looked even worse, but did not really resist, so he snorted coldly, turned around and left.

The guards quickly "protected" the imperial edict asked them to wait for the orders of the three ministers.

When Cai Jing saw that Cai Bian really put Huang Lu in house arrest, his face gradually calmed down and said, "Can I know?"

Cai Bian glanced at him and said lightly: "You have done too much recently, please calm down."

Cao Zheng immediately didn't dare to speak. Cai Bian treated his own brother so ruthlessly, let alone him.

Cai Jing examined Cai Bian for a while and did not ask any further questions.

Cai Bian did not explain to them. After Cai Jing and Cao Zheng left, he sat and thought for a while and got up to go to the Zhengshi Hall.

Although the Green Tile House has a location for Su Song, Su Song doesn't like it here, so his duty room is still in the Zhengshi Hall.

At this moment, Zhao Xu was in the study of Funing Palace, looking at the memorials from the two roads of Hebei, including the signatures of Zhao Si, Xu Jiang and Li Qingchen.

With the three people signing together, things are not that simple.

This memorial describes the situation of the Yellow River in the two roads of Hebei in detail, using many "unbearable" words, which seriously means it fills the lines.

Zhao Xu's face showed a deep look and he was worried.

The system problems of the Song Dynasty led to almost no one doing anything in the local area, and a hundred years of people were overestimated, and the situation was corruption.

However, once the Yellow River breaks, not only countless people will be displaced, but the court needs to do its best to provide disaster relief.

The two routes in Hebei are still the front line to defend against the Liao Kingdom. If these two places are washed away by floods, the consequences will be unimaginable!

"I hope they don't let me down..."

Zhao Xu whispered to himself. He had done everything he could. Now, he is looking forward to the ability of Xu Jiang and others.

There is nothing to hide from Zhao Xu in the palace. Before Cai Bian arrived at the Political Affairs Hall, someone came to report it.

After hearing this, Chen Pi was shocked and hurried in to report the matter to Zhao Xu.

Zhao Xu was stunned when he heard this. Cai Bian actually put the Censor Huang Lu under house arrest?

It is a serious crime to privately arrest the imperial court officials!

Zhao Xu thought about it again and looked at Chen Pi and said, "He didn't come?"

Chenpi tightened her face and said, "No, I've gone to the Political Affairs Hall."

Zhao Xu looked entertained and smiled and said, "It's interesting."

Cai Bian put Huang Lu under house arrest and had not yet come to explain. This shows that something must be happening, which makes Cai Bian unable to come.

What could be done?
Chapter completed!
