Daming: Brother, there is no future for monks, let's rebel

The officers and men of the Black Cavalry Army, together with a few government servants from the Ministry of Criminal Justice, exhausted all their strength before they finally squeezed out of the crowd.

That's all, because they tried to yell when they went out.

"Colleagues, step aside, we are going to get evidence, if you don't move, we won't be able to get evidence, and we won't be able to interrogate those corrupt officials."

Almost every few steps they took, they had to yell like this.

These words were given to them by Zhu Han.Otherwise, even with the help of the soldiers of the Black Cavalry Army, it would take a lot of time to go out.

Even now, in order to let them get the evidence as soon as possible, many people take the initiative to make way for them.

This road is also quite difficult.

"Give way, let these military masters go out to get evidence."

"It's not that I don't want to let it go. There is no road on my side. The people behind should squeeze in."

"I don't think you should put your mind to it. How could those officials deal with the officials?"

All kinds of voices were mixed together, and the soldiers of the Black Cavalry Army couldn't quite hear what others were saying.

Just try to separate the crowd and squeeze outside.

It took a lot of strength to finally squeeze out of the crowd.

The soldiers of the Black Cavalry Army only felt that their eyes lit up, and their surroundings suddenly became brighter.

However, when they turned their heads to look in the direction of the crowded criminal department, they suddenly felt an urge not to come back.

When the men from the Black Cavalry went to get the evidence.

Liu Song looked at Liang Ji coldly and said, "Lord Liang, before I came here, His Majesty has personally explained it."

"For the officials in Yanjing, anyone who commits corruption and accepts bribes will be given a higher crime."

These words, if they were spoken in the original Ming time and space.

Maybe, it can directly scare the head of the Department of Cleaning Officials of the Ministry of Finance of Yanjing into a good deal.

Zhu Yuanzhang is different from other emperors.

If it were other emperors, even Tang Zong and Song Zu would have problems of one kind or another when dealing with personnel.

After all, as the founding emperors, many of their ministers followed them through life and death.

As long as it is not a major crime of treason, it is not easy for them to directly fight Thunder's methods.

At that time, it would be a bit too ugly to leave a reputation of ungratefulness.

Needless to say, in the Song Dynasty, even if civil servants committed serious crimes, they were exiled at most, and very few people killed people directly for their crimes.

Although the Tang Dynasty was a bit better, in order to check and balance the court, His Majesty Sheng Tianzi often compromised in this regard.

Only Zhu Yuanzhang really hated corrupt officials to the bone.

Moreover, Lao Zhu's biggest advantage is that he is pragmatic, and he never cares about the so-called sage monarch's false name.

Therefore, all court officials dare to embezzle and accept bribes.

Zhu Yuanzhang has never been soft-hearted in dealing with it.

What kind of skin-picking, the bloodier the method, the better.

Looking at the top and bottom 5000 years, that emperor is the most wise, maybe everyone has their own ideas.

However, like Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor who showed no mercy to corrupt officials and was not merciless in rectifying them was the only one in Scorpion Baba.

After all, there are not enough people who can be killed to be officials. How hot is Zhu Yuanzhang's means.

It can be said that those corrupt officials might be scared to death just by hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's name.

It's a pity that there is such an anomaly as Zhu Han in the Great Ming of this time and space.

When Zhu Yuanzhang killed indiscriminately, Zhu Han persuaded him more than once.

Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang did not really start killing in the court.

The advantage of doing this is that it did kill a lot of people.

The disadvantage is that some corrupt officials did not feel this kind of deterrence, and they did not take the court seriously.

Liang Ji looked upright and awe-inspiring: "Thank you for your guidance, my lord."

"The lower official has a clear conscience. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the accounts of the Ministry of Finance's Clean-up Department."

"We, the top and bottom officials of the Officials Cleaning Department, work hard every day to keep accounts for the imperial court."

"Eating the king's salary is a matter of being loyal to the king."

"Originally, it wasn't a big deal. After all, this is what we should do."

"However, when we are working so hard, the imperial court came to question us. Doesn't it make people feel chilling?"

Liu Song still had that calm look: "So, you still feel innocent?"

"It's natural." Looking at Liang Ji's aggrieved and angry appearance, it seemed as if he had really been wronged by the sky.

Liu Song nodded and said: "Liang Ji... I tell you this, in the hope that you will find your way back."

"You admit the crime yourself, and I can write a letter to His Majesty to mitigate..."

Liu Song didn't finish his sentence, when suddenly a weeping cry interrupted his words.

"Master Qingtian, please let the women be the masters!"

There seemed to be endless grievances and grief in that voice.

Many people couldn't help but feel like crying just by hearing this voice.

Liu Song frowned slightly, and slapped the gavel: "Bring the noisy people up."

The yamen servant of the Ministry of Punishment quickly helped an old lady onto the high platform.

The old lady had a stooped back, gray hair, and dimples all over her face, with a weather-beaten look.

When the old lady went up to the high platform, she seemed to exhaust her whole body every step of the stairs.

Seeing her wobbly appearance, Liu Song was worried that a gust of wind could send the old lady away directly.

Without the support of the yamen servants from the Ministry of Punishment, the old lady might not even be able to climb the steps.

Liu Song glanced behind the old lady, and found that there was no one around the old lady except the yamen servant.

This thing seems very strange.

You know, in the era of Daming, the elderly are very important.

For an old man of this age, even if he takes a walk in the street, he must be accompanied by his relatives.

If not, it can only mean...

Liu Song didn't dare to continue to think, but took advantage of the trend to pick up the old lady's clothes.

Seeing it this way makes people even more sad.

The old lady's clothes were in a mess of all colors.

This is not some trendy pursuit.

Instead, there were several layers of patches on the clothes she was wearing.

These patches are piled up layer by layer, looking from a distance, it looks like the old lady is covered with a lot of rags.

The old lady walked up to the high platform with difficulty, and immediately wanted to kneel down to Liu Song.

The scared Liu Song quickly stood up: "You must not do it, old man. I, Liu Song, cannot bear your great gift."

"Old man, you don't want to, let me shorten my life?"

"What are you doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up and bring a chair for this aunt?"

Soon, a yamen servant from the Ministry of Punishment came to a small mat to sit down for the old lady.

It's not that the yamen servant is stingy, at such an advanced age, he still doesn't prepare chairs for others.

The most important reason for this is that Daming is not a descendant after all.

Although Zhu Han's appearance brought earth-shaking changes to Daming.

But Zhu Han is not a god after all, nor can everything be changed.

Although the old lady is old, she is just an ordinary citizen after all.

According to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, ordinary people without fame actually only have the place to kneel in court.

Of course, if there are any special contributions, or some more prestigious squires, it is not impossible to sit at all.

And after they went to court, the stools they sat on were the same ones that the old lady was sitting on now.

Finally arranged for the old lady to sit down.

Liu Song asked patiently, "Why is this aunt complaining about injustice?"

"Do you know that the people we are interrogating here are all corrupt officials from the imperial court."

"If the person you want to sue is not here, I suggest that you go to Jingzhao Mansion to sue."

Yin Zhouliang of Jingzhao Mansion in the distance turned green when he heard Liu Song's words.

I said in my heart that I don't want to bring such a thing, Mr. Liu, you can speak well, why do you want to take Jing Zhaoyi with them.

The old lady shook her head again and again: "Master Qingtian, it's not that the women didn't go to Jingzhaoyi."

"It's just that every time I go, the officials of Jing Zhaoyi have to wait for the little lady."

"One year after another, women don't count on them anymore."

"Today, the women heard that there is Lord Qingtian who is going to clean up all the corrupt officials in Yanjing."

"That's why the women are bold and want to ask the adults to make decisions for me."

Liu Song didn't agree immediately, but looked around.

I saw that the Black Cavalry Army who went to get the accounts of the Ministry of Finance and Cleaning Department had not returned yet.

I was about to continue asking the old lady, but found out by accident.

Liang Ji, head of the Cleaning Department of the Ministry of Finance, saw this old lady, and his face changed instantly.

Liu Song immediately understood that this old lady must be inextricably linked with Liang Ji.

Unexpectedly, there was a surprise.

Snapped.

Liu Song patted the gavel lightly: "Women under the hall give their names?"

The old woman didn't dare to be negligent, and hastily replied respectfully: "My lord, Mrs. Gao Liu."

The status of women in this era is naturally not going anywhere.

In Ying Tiandi's practice, Zhao Min recruited many women.

These women themselves were able to earn money by legitimate crafts to support their families.

Moreover, the income of many of them has even exceeded that of their husbands, and their status in the family has gradually improved.

But Yanjing is too far away from Yingtian.

In many cases here, there is not much difference from before.

Many women do not have formal names.

At most, it is the surname of her husband's family, plus her own surname.

This is obviously the case for the Gao Liu family. Gao is her long husband's surname, while Liu is her original surname.

"Gao Liu, what do you mean when you cry for injustice?"

Gao Liu's voice was trembling with excitement, and before he could speak, tears filled his eyes: "My lord, the woman wants to sue this thief, and I ask you to make the decision for the woman."

When Gao Liushi pointed at Liang Ji, he gritted his teeth, as if he wanted to swallow Liang Ji alive.

She gritted her teeth and kept sobbing: "Master Qingtian, just three years ago, Liang Tian, ​​the son of Liang Ji, fell in love with my daughter."

"When it's day and night, you're going to cheat on my daughter."

"My daughter refused, and ended up jumping off the stairs and falling to her death."

"My husband and I went to seek justice from him, but this heartbroken guy blatantly covered up his son, and even ordered the servants to beat my husband."

"In less than half a month, my husband died of serious injuries."

"Master Qingtian, please make the decision for us."

Looking at the old lady, she was crying as if she was about to faint.

The people at the scene were also filled with righteous indignation.

"Hehe, this guy's virtue is no different from other officials."

"This city of Yanjing has long been tormented by those playboys, the Second Generation Ancestor."

"I'm going to have a look. There are already people who have filed complaints on the spot. What else can the court officials who came to interrogate this time do?"

The public opinion was raging, and even if no one of the people watching the excitement around the Ministry of Criminal Justice said a word, it could cause a roar like a sea wave.

Liang Ji only felt that he had a little impression of the old lady's chills on his back.

At that time, it was impossible for him not to show up.

Who made the mistake, but his youngest son?
Liang Ji can be regarded as a child of old age, so he naturally dotes on his children.

Although he usually teaches, but his son is also full of ears, and he doesn't take his father's words to heart.

Until one time, Liang Tianyi accidentally killed someone.

For his favorite son, Liang Ji had no choice but to come forward to settle the matter.

His grade, although it doesn't look particularly high.

This is Yanjing, if you throw a stone casually, you can hit several Shangshu lords, not to mention a mere head of the Cleaning Department?
But Liang Ji is different. He is the head of the Department of Cleaning Officials of the Ministry of Finance.

The person in charge of the money bag is just like the official department in charge of officials.

Who dares not give face?

With the first time, there will be a second and third time.

Over the years, Liang Ji has used his old face a lot for this matter.

As for the old lady complaining in front of him, Liang Ji really had a little impression.

The reason why I was so impressed was because the old lady had a very tough character.

He even scratched his face with his nails.

It was nothing at first, but after thinking of this incident suddenly, Liang Ji felt that the place on his face where this woman's claws had scratched him began to ache again.

"Liang Ji, what Gao Liu said is true?"

How could Liang Ji dare to admit such a thing?

He quickly pretended to be angry and explained: "It's a bunch of nonsense."

"My lord, this old lady is talking nonsense, please drive her out immediately."

"My son has been burying his head in reading for the past few years, even going out a lot less. How can he have time to do this kind of thing?"

"My lord, with your sharp eyes, you must be able to see that this troublemaker is simply slandering the subordinate official and his son."

"You scum who kills thousands of knives, dare to swear to God that your son didn't force my daughter to death, or my husband?" The old lady saw Liang Ji denying it, and immediately shouted angrily without waiting for Liu Song to speak.

Liang Ji's face turned slightly, and then he sneered pretending to be contemptuous: "I don't speak in a strange way, and swearing and swearing is meaningless at all."

"I'm too lazy to be as knowledgeable as a fool like you. If you don't have evidence, get out of here."
