Chapter 635: Killing the fraudsters, the iron fist of the eldest son
"Your Highness, the Emperor's eldest son, and the Emperor's second son are eager to save people, and he is pity for the poor and cherishes the elderly. This is why you will not make things difficult for the Emperor's second son at this time, but you will do your duty as the inspector and implement the power of the king's law. As the saying goes, law is nothing more than human kindness..."
Chen Weisong, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, started talking at this time.
But before he finished speaking, Zhu Ciwei looked at him with an ice face: "I don't need you, Chen Butang, to teach me how to be the inspector's censor! The matters about the king's law are not something you, the Ministry of Rites officials, can be interfered with! If you talk too much, as the provincial inspector, I have the responsibility to participate in your intervention in local justice!"
"I!"
Chen Weisong didn't expect Zhu Ciwei to give him face so much.
He thought that no matter what he said, he would be a minister, and even if the other princes were not too enthusiastic to him, he would be more polite.
This made him feel a little dissatisfied with the eldest son Zhu Ciwei, and said to himself: "I really don't know why God has made you the first prince of Your Majesty. Fortunately, Your Majesty does not believe in the system of the eldest son!"
"The eldest son of the emperor?"
"The second son of the emperor?"
The people around were surprised at this time.
Someone even shouted to the old man's children: "You're done, it turns out that the prince is the one who blackmailed you!"
"Prince?"
"That's right, it's the prince!"
"You're done, haha, deserve it! You're asking you to cheat people!"
The two men, who were immersed in the joy of getting one thousand silver coins, shivered after hearing this. They looked up and saw Zhu Ciwei and other officers and soldiers standing behind him, and then knelt down: "Master, please spare your life!Master, please spare your life!"
The more rampant some people are in front of the weak, the humble they appear in front of the strong who hold violent machines.
The same is true for the old man's two children at this time.
Zhu Ciwei asked Zhu Cican when he saw this: "What this old man said is the truth?"
"It's the truth, but, brother, the key now is to let the old man go to the doctor."
Zhu Cican replied.
Zhu Ciwei asked the onlookers again. After learning the truth, he ordered: "Come, send this old man to the hospital, but keep someone in the clinic to strictly guard this person! And take down all the old man's children! Send it to the government hall lobby first! After the elderly seek medical treatment, they will also be sent together!"
An hour later, Zhu Ciwei personally interrogated the old man and his children in the lobby of the government office that he had temporarily borrowed.
The old man and his children all pleaded guilty and had no regrets because of the conclusive evidence.
Zhu Ciwei therefore announced: "How to judge the crime of extortion? This dynasty has a law!"
"The judgment standard is based on the amount of the final blackmailer's blackmailer's income and the physical and mental damage caused by the blackmailer's physical and mental damage. Among them, the amount involved:
If the master and servant are less than fifty yuan, they will be 60 yuan;
For more than fifty yuan to less than one hundred yuan, the main offender will be 3,000 miles away. The accomplice will be 60 feet;
One hundred yuan and more than one hundred yuan are considered bad blackmail, the main culprit is hanged, and the follower is three thousand miles away;
More than 500 yuan to 1,000 yuan is a great evil, the main culprit is beheaded and the accomplice is hanged;
Those who have 1,000 yuan or more are extremely evil, and they are suspected of illegal fundraising and chaos, so the main culprits are all killed immediately."
As he said that, Zhu Ciwei said, "Since the second son of the emperor Zhu Cican gave you 1,000 yuan and you took it away, then drag it out and beheaded! Xingwen Capital can report this matter!"
The old man named Ma Gui and his children Ma Cheng and Ma Li were shocked when Zhu Ciwei learned that they were named Ma Gui. They did not expect that they would be killed immediately because of this incident.
The three of them had to kowtow to Zhu Ciwei like pounding garlic: "Please beg the master, be kind!"
"Brother, wait!"
Zhu Cican shouted at this time and hurriedly said, "This old man named Ma Gui is already an elderly person. How can he punish him for his death because of his mistake? This is not in line with the way of respecting the elderly! Please give me kindness from the emperor!"
"No!"
Zhu Ciwei directly refused.
But because Zhu Cican was his younger brother, he explained more: "If I benevolence to him, it would be cruel to the good old man. In order to allow the good old man to be treated well in the future, such evil people must be severely punished. This is also the spirit of the father's law!"
Then, Zhu Ciwei warned: "You must not interfere. Your mission is to send Duke Li to Sichuan. If you intervene again, don't blame the emperor for impeaching you for the sake of national law!"
After hearing this, Zhu Cican couldn't speak anymore. He didn't expect that his emperor brother was so inhumane, so he couldn't help asking: "Does your elder brother, also want to be treated like this when you get old in the future?"
Zhu Ciwei did not respond.
At this time, Zhu Xieyuan had to stand up.
Because Chen Weisong has been threatened by Zhu Ciwei, if he interferes in local government affairs, he will be impeached.
So, Chen Weisong can only shut up now.
Zhu Xieyuan felt that as a Duke of the Kingdom, he was once a supplementary minister. According to the current etiquette system of the Ming Dynasty, in the court, ministers such as Duke of the Kingdom and auxiliary ministers who contributed to the country were treated higher than princes, and the prince had to perform the younger rituals first when they saw them.
Therefore, Zhu Xieyuan was preparing to rely on his qualifications to talk to the old man.
But before he could speak, Zhu Ciwei reminded him first: "If Duke Li doesn't want to raise his kindness and get into trouble after returning home, don't talk too much."
After hearing this, Zhu Xieyuan hurriedly choked back what he wanted to say.
He really can't guarantee that the eldest son of the emperor will inherit the throne in the future, and if he offended the eldest son of the emperor now, it would be naturally unworthy.
Therefore, Zhu Xieyuan also turned around and persuaded Zhu Cican: "Second Prince, this is a local judicial policy. We really cannot interfere, so as to avoid the suspicion of being involved in politics. It is better to obey the verdict of His Highness, the eldest son of the emperor, who is the inspector."
Zhu Cican pondered for a moment, and finally nodded: "Yes!"
"Drag the criminal to cause trouble, behead him immediately, hang his head to the public for three days to serve as a warning!"
Zhu Ciwei continued to die here.
"yes!"
...
The old man named Ma Gui directly caught Zhu Cican and resented: "It's all your fault! It's all your fault! Why did you take so many silver coins? Now that my family has been executed, I want my family to have no queen! Why do you have to take one thousand yuan out!"
Seeing this, Zhu Cican felt a little guilty and couldn't help but say, "I, I'm sorry, I didn't expect it."
Zhu Cican looked at Zhu Ciwei again: "Brother, can they be more polite? They collected 1,000 yuan, which was not their original intention, but I took the initiative to eliminate disasters."
Zhu Ciwei replied coldly: "The national law is ruthless. It is a fact that they get 1,000 silver coins by extortion. I cannot deceive the emperor, and it is even more impossible for me to trample on the judiciary just because you are my brother! In this way, how can justice exist?"
"Click!"
"Click!"
"Click!"
Ma Gui, his sons Ma Cheng and Ma Li were all beheaded in the downtown area next.
"ah!"
The old man called Xing Zhijian was so scared that he fell to the ground when he saw this scene. After being helped up by a boy, he also wanted to cheat the boy because he liked to cheat people. However, when he saw Ma Gui's head, his back suddenly became cold and he didn't dare to do this again. He just left here silently, and after a while he walked back and said thank you to the boy.
...
"Since you have met me, I will come to see you off. I know you like to collect books. I got a lonely book the day before yesterday, so you can take it."
Zhu Ciwei came to give it to Zhu Cican when he left.
Zhu Cican pushed away Zhu Ciwei's gift: "Although brothers and brothers are respectful, it is different between you and me, and their friendship is because of your iron heart. Besides, aren't you the Censor of the Jiangnan Inspection Commission now? How dare I receive the courtesy of the inspector privately!"
"This is a private brotherhood. I don't have official uniforms and I have the official essay."
Zhu Ciwei said.
"No need! Thank you for your kindness!"
Zhu Cican replied lightly, then got on the boat and entered the cabin.
