First Prince of Ming Dynasty Chapter 718

  Chapter 718 brought to justice

  Li Gao's eyes were bloodshot, and he staggered out of the gate of the Pan Mansion. A servant waiting in front of the door gave him a hand. To be honest, he didn't want to come. No one knew that the magistrate was about to die.

   But there is nothing to do, no one is willing to come, so naturally they will introduce the least status, heh, they are both servants and small officials, and there are still distinctions between high and low.

   "Master, shall we go back to Yali?"

Li Gao nodded dumbly, his legs trembling uncontrollably. If possible, he didn't want to suffer this kind of waiting for death anymore, but he couldn't die like this. What do they leave behind, but it can't make them die together.

  Even if the family property is fined and the income is confiscated, as long as the person is still there, the people in Liyang will always take care of them, at least they will not starve to death on the street, and there is still hope in the future.

   It's a lie to say that you don't hate Pan Fu, but it's easy to die, but what can be solved?

  When a person is about to die, he must consider for his close relatives.

  After returning to the county office, he saw his aide came out with his luggage on his back. The two of them looked at each other without words but tears. Li Gao didn't stop him, but patted him on the shoulder and let him go.

   "Take the shackles."

   "Sir?"

"go!"

  Li Gao arranged the county seal documents and put them in the lobby, took off the black gauze and took off his official robe, and stood silently with his head up and silent, wearing only his white jacket and official boots.

  The officer swallowed, and tremblingly stepped forward to handcuff him to the shackles. This is the magistrate of the county.

  The shoulders and arms of the torture shackles hurt, and there were stains and stench on them. The heavy burden weighed down, and Li Gao knelt down. His body was in pain, but his heart was in vain, and he accepted his fate.

   Before it was time for a cup of tea, there was a sound of horseshoes trampling outside the yamen, and a group of people rushed in. The guards, who usually show off their might to the people, hid in desperation, not even daring to take a second look.

  The officials headed by the officials had eyes like eagles and falcons, and were dressed in five-rank official uniforms. Behind them were officials from the Ministry of Punishment in the capital.

  Punishment doctor stood in front of Li Gao and asked condescendingly, "Who is kneeling?"

   "My subordinate... Li Gao, the criminal magistrate of Liyang County, knows that he has violated the law and betrayed the emperor's kindness, so he is waiting for arrest with shackles."

   "Heh, he's pretty smart, come and verify his identity."

   It is impossible for him to come here to arrest people under orders. He will be whoever he says he is, so he has to check carefully. This is an important case that both the Holy Majesty and the Crown Prince know about. It is a serious crime to arrest the wrong person.

The county magistrate was easy to recognize. After arresting some people inside and outside to identify him, he confirmed Li Gao's identity, that is, removed his shackles, and was about to rush back to the capital. Where is he allowed to make gestures? There is no lack of shackles for him.

  After tying him to the horse, a burly man with cheeks stepped forward and said, "Guard Lang, let's go back right away. We should be able to return to the capital at night."

   "Your mind is full of horse manure? How can you do this? There is another servant, Pan Fu, who will be arrested, and then pick a few servants to take away the victims of the people, so as not to make mistakes, you and I can't bear it."

   "No."

  The man turned around and shouted: "Who is Pan Fu! Get out!"

  The county government servants huddled in a ball trembled a few times, but no one dared to speak. The old men from Beijing are powerful, but the Pan family is not a vegetarian, so they can still make their family ruined and their wives scattered.

At this time, a middle-aged man in official uniform walked in. His face was pale and his expression was dull. After walking a few steps, he lay on the ground, but he still shouted: "The villain is Pan Fu. Settle down the house, come and get the Death lead death..."

The cheeky man made a fuss, and several other officials of the Ministry of Punishment stepped up to the front with iron rulers and beat the county government officials crying for their father and mother, and then asked: "This man is Pan Fu? You sons of a bitch!" , have been carefully watched by Lao Tzu, if you make a mistake, you must die!"

   "It's Pan Fu, it's Pan Fu."

"Yes Yes Yes."

   "The little ones dare not lie to adults, he is Pan Fu."

They were satisfied, and then like picking chickens, they randomly picked a few servants and prepared to take them back to Beijing, whether they were used as witnesses or for interrogation. This kind of case that is heard by God is more troublesome. It's more troublesome.

The doctor of the Ministry of Punishment looked thoughtfully at the people who had wandered around in front of the county yamen for several times. It is not surprising that the common people like to watch the excitement, but it is rare to see such deliberate circles, and he noticed that these officers saw the man All of a sudden, I trembled a few times.

   "Listen well, the Ministry of Officials will come to take over the county office later, and I will stay here honestly until now!"

  After taking the man away, he beat the horse and left the county seat. After speeding up the horse for more than a dozen miles, he reined in the horse and stopped. The horse neighed suddenly, and the prisoner at the side asked, "Mr. Lang, why did you stop, but you are not feeling well?"

  Punishment doctor jumped off the horse and said: "I'm not at ease, I'm afraid there is something wrong."

  The group of people looked at each other for a few times, and immediately jumped off their horses. Several people with the county government officials dragged them off immediately, ignoring their begging for mercy, and dragging them aside, the iron ruler fell down.

  No one asked Lang Zhong if he was thinking too much. This is not an ordinary case, and the case has already reached the sky. If it weren't for the urgent urging from Beijing, they would all want to investigate in Liyang for a few days before arresting him.

  The cheeky man cast a cold glance at Li Gao. Although he is a small county magistrate, he is an official ordered by the imperial court. No one can be punished without being convicted by the Dali Temple of the Ministry of Punishment.

   "Lang Guan, why don't I lead someone back?"

   "Well, take a few brothers to change into plain clothes and go back to check it out carefully. We don't want merit but no fault."

   "No."

   "So, the Pan family is considered a powerful local?"

  In the side hall of Jinshen Hall, Zhu Biao rubbed the ring pendant, and ordered his colleague Shang Honghai to kneel in the middle. After killing several people in a row, everything came to light.

  No one can bear the means of the pro-military Duwei Mansion, and those who died were not because they didn't recruit, but Shang Honghai also cleared out a few positions for his confidantes in order to scare the chickens and monkeys.

   "As far as Master Hui is concerned, the Pan family is just a family of officials from generation to generation. It can't be called a powerful family. The people who make friends are also local ruffians, tyrants, private salt dealers, and at most they are county magistrates who suppress the flow of water."

   "Huh, if you really stand upright, a court official under the emperor's feet can't hold back a small official."

   "The minister checked and found that when Li Gao was working in other places, he was considered clean and self-confident, and he was not greedy for money. Then Pan Fu lured him with **** and dragged him into trouble."

   "It's interesting to say, for His Highness's sake, after Li Gao accepted the beautiful woman offered by Pan Fu, in order to hide the eyes and ears of others, this beautiful woman hid in Pan Fu's house, and came here to play with it every now and then between official duties."

   "But one time, Pan Fu was so itchy that he even got together with that woman. After being overwhelmed, he felt very comfortable, and he simply married this woman as a concubine."

   "Then Li Gao is dissatisfied, but he has been dragged into the water, and he is full of troubles. He has no choice but to come to the door to deliver congratulatory gifts in person. After that, I heard that there will be no chance to get close to the beautiful woman."

  After listening to Zhu Biao, he couldn't help shaking his head and laughing, lamenting his misfortune, angering him for not fighting, he was wronged by a hundred miles, and he was broken by a woman, and he was humiliated by an official.

After laughing, Zhu Biao didn't let go of his heart. The mere matter of a county is really not worthy of his concern. If Huang Lu didn't catch up with the time, this matter would only be presented to him after the fact for review and approval. beheaded.

   Ming law, unless the crime is as serious as a rebellion and rebellion, the local chief can be killed first and then play the role, that is, the imperial envoy holding the king's order flag can directly kill the official and kill the evil.

  The rest have to be reported layer by layer, until the central government, and the emperor's imperial pen can make a decision. Only when it is not necessary, Lao Zhu will not let Zhu Biao get involved.

Of course, it's not a taboo, but it's just that young people should not do too much when dealing with killing. Since Zhu Biao sketched the household affairs in that year, he hasn't done it for a long time. For a month, I would rather spend more time than contaminate my son too much.
