After Ming Dynasty

Chapter 76
Zhao Shizhe returned to his hometown and contacted young talents from Shanzuo Taishe, such as Zhao Jinmei, Song Wan, Wang Shizhen, etc., arrived one after another. There were almost a dozen young scholars, forming a new group of forces.

And these days Zhu Yiyuan first led the army to attack Mengyin, then robbed Muling Pass, and then went south to Yishui... He didn't have any in-depth contacts with these people.

The defendant this time was a prison student named Tian Bin. His family had a lot of money. This time he came here and took a full 500 taels of silver to support the rebel army.

He brought four servants with him, and he was the only one among the group of scholars in Shanzuo Grand Society.

At this time, Zhao Shizhe and Song Jicheng's faces were not very good-looking, after all, they belonged to them, while on the other side, Zhang Lin, Jiang Qi, Luo Yi, Zhao Yingyuan and others all stared angrily and aggrieved.

At the same time, a group of poor scholars such as Wang Yu participated in the case outside, and Zhu Yiyuan punished them to do hard labor.Because they can read and write, they are often asked to help record accounts and organize logistics in the army.

Facing this case, they also came to observe.

At the same time, the magistrate Lu Xi, Ye Tingxiu and Gu Yanwu were all watching.

The combination of these parties is the current distribution of power under Zhu Yiyuan's subordinates.

There are folks who started with him the first time, and there are both literary and military.In addition, there is the Shanzuo Grand Society brought by Zhao Shizhe and the others, which can be regarded as newly joined anti-Qing literati.

Then there are the personnel that Zhu Yiyuan captured one after another. These people are generally congenitally deficient, unreasonable and not strong, but they are also an indispensable force under Zhu Yiyuan's command.

Of course, if you include Zhao Yingyuan, the old Chuangwang clan, and two people representing Emperor Longwu, Zhu Yiyuan's subordinates are even more complicated.

It is precisely because of the complexity that this case is difficult to handle.

"Tian Bin, let me ask you, what do you mean by giving Wang Huan a sweat towel close to your body?"

Tian Bin rolled his eyelids, lowered his head again, and said in a muffled voice, "It's nothing interesting, it's just a show of favor between friends."

Zhu Yiyuan glanced at Wang Huan, "Do you agree?"

"Of course I don't admit it, this bastard, give me a sweat towel, return it, touch my hands and feet, touch my face... also, touch my butt!"

In a word, the soldiers of the rebel army who were listening on the outermost perimeter suddenly burst into an uproar, what is this?

What the hell is a big man doing to touch the ass of a half-sized man, not because of his relatives?
They were confused, but Ye Tingxiu, Gu Yanwu, Zhao Shizhe and others were all clear about it.

Including the four servants who followed Tian Bin, it was even clearer.Everyone knows the virtues of their masters.He even looked at Wang Huan without resentment, this kid is not handsome?

"Tian Bin, what excuse do you have?"

Tian Bin said unconvinced: "I saw that this little brother looks good, so I said hello to him. I am much older than him, so it's okay to touch my face."

Wang Huan immediately retorted: "No, you, you also said a lot of dirty words, and you even talked about Zhu Qian."

Zhu Yiyuan's expression remained the same, "Speak."

Wang Huan gritted his teeth, and simply said: "Just say it, he touched my ass, said he wanted me to take good care of him, and said he had a way to make me more pleasing to him, and even took out a scroll of paintings for me." , it’s all about... goblin fights.”

Wang Huan really couldn't find any words to describe it, so he said that goblins fight.

But I have understood what I should understand, and I have counted what I should not understand.

Well, you are a decent scholar, why do such lowly things?
He even put his hand on the heads of the soldiers of the rebel army, it's just hateful!
Zhao Shizhe couldn't bear it any longer, and said angrily, "Tian Bin, you still haven't really recruited it now?"

Tian Bin looked around and was full of angry and cursing voices, so he could only say: "Dongshan Gong, I don't mean anything malicious, I just heard that there is no maid to serve you around, only this little brother... I thought about following him." Make a friend, so that he can help me to say something nice to him, I really have no malice, I am wholeheartedly fighting against Qing, not only donating money, but also willing to work for him, this is all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!"

Zhao Shizhe and Song Jicheng looked at each other, and they were basically sure that this was probably the case.This guy Tian Bin donated a prison student by spending money.

He has always liked to drill camps, and he was smart enough to think that everyone had the same hobby as him, so he kicked the iron plate.

Things are not complicated, but how to deal with them is more complicated.

Zhu Yiyuan's face was serious, "This kind of thing can't be prevaricated by just a misunderstanding... You molested the lieutenant soldiers with dirty thoughts, despicable means, and extremely bad influence. Immediately punished eighty, apologized to the victim, and then expelled from the army middle."

eighty?

Tian Bin turned pale with fright, eighty boards can smash their buttocks, and their lives can be beaten.

"I don't accept it. I came here to help fight against the Qing Dynasty with good intentions. I didn't make any big mistakes. It's just a matter of scholarly elegance..."

"Shut up!" Zhu Yiyuan suddenly yelled angrily, "I can't spare you just because of the four words of elegance! What you think of elegance is not just raising a few servants! Like the big traitor Qian Qianyi , marrying a brothel girl, who is talented and beautiful, can be considered very elegant, right?"

Tian Bin was stunned, and didn't know how to answer for a moment. Indeed, in his opinion, this is a matter of elegance.

Zhu Yiyuan sneered and said: "What you think is elegant, in my opinion, is just relying on wealth and power to bully the poor! Victims, regardless of gender, after all, a family that can live well, who would be willing to let their children be ruined? Not really Poor families can't survive, so they sell their sons and daughters. The daughter goes to the brothel, and the boy becomes a servant for people like you."

"You have violated the laws of heaven and the laws of the country, and your crimes will not be punished. How dare you call me elegant? I can tell you that my army is the master of the poor people. We are soldiers and relatives of the people. Under our rule, everyone No slaves are allowed, second no slaves are allowed, third no prostitutes are allowed, and fourth no servants are allowed to entertain the master."

Zhu Yiyuan said coldly: "This time, it's just an obscene behavior and words. If there is a real action, it will not be a slap in the face, but a decisive decision!"

Tian Bin was horrified, and quickly said angrily: "What kind of reason is this? He is a mere pawn, and I am the supervisor of Daming. If you make such a sentence, won't you be afraid of chilling the hearts of scholars?"

Zhu Yiyuan shook his head and said with a sneer, "If I don't punish you, the soldiers' hearts will be chilled."

Hearing this, the outermost soldiers all cheered.

"Well said, we are disciple soldiers, we don't allow these people to bully our sons and daughters!"

"Zhu Qian's case was judged fairly, which is very satisfying!"

At this moment Zhang Lin also had a smile on his face. With a large number of literati voting, he is just a scholar and his status is at risk. Who knows if Zhu Yiyuan will fire him and replace him with someone else.

After all, there seemed to be many people who could replace him.

But this case made Zhang Lin see clearly that Mr. Zhu is still Mr. Zhu, and he will not condone this group of people.

So Zhang Lin stood up decisively, "I remember that there was a scholar named Lin back then, who had his head beheaded because of abusing schoolchildren and committing many evil deeds. Now some people have such evil thoughts, but we have military regulations Yes. When I first came here, I said that the soldiers should be like a family, and they are not allowed to bully and oppress them, otherwise they will be punished severely. I think it’s a little light to beat him now!”

Zhu Yiyuan pondered slightly, and said, "Pull it down!"

Immediately, someone dragged Tian Bin down, and pulled off his pants, revealing his white and tender flesh.The soldier in charge of execution saw it and gritted his teeth!
For letting you bully and abuse the poor, your retribution is coming!

The hard wooden board was raised high, and there was a scream, and after a few blows, he was knocked unconscious.

The case was considered to be over, and the soldiers were overjoyed and went down one after another, Zhu Yiyuan actually took the initiative to walk up to Ye Tingxiu and Gu Yanwu, smiling slightly.

"Uncle, and Mr. Ning Ren, you should understand, right? Daming has too much decay and decay, too many bad habits... relying on this broken body, we can't expel the Hulu .”

Ye Tingxiu's complexion changed suddenly. As for Gu Yanwu, he hesitated for a while, then his eyes gradually brightened, and he subconsciously said, "Does Zhu Qian really have the courage to clean up the evils and save the peril?"
