Chapter 10 The Ninth Chapter of Judgment of Strange Injustices, Cantonese Scholars Made Imperial Criminal Investigations, and Went to Chenzhou for Relief

Let's say that when Gongsun Ce returned to Kaifeng Mansion, he still entered quietly through the corner gate, came to the teahouse, put down the signboard of the medicine box, found Bao Xing and went back to Bao Gong.See you now.After seeing the ceremony, Gongsun Ce explained the reason for the secret visit in detail. Bao Gong was delighted to hear this, and thought to himself: This man is really talented and learned, it is really difficult for him to investigate this matter.So they asked Bao Xing and Gongsun Ce to change their clothes, prepare wine and meals, and ask the husband to rest.He also asked Li Cai to pass in the foreign class, sign out immediately, and take Yougouer to the case.The outside class agreed.Not long after I went, I came back and said: You Gouer brought it.

The master drummed up the hall and called: "Bring You Gou'er!"Kneel down in the hall.Bao Gong asked: Are you You Gouer?He replied: Master, the villain is called a donkey.Bao Gong stopped drinking: Hey!You are clearly a dog, why are you called a donkey?The dog replied: "Sir, the villain was originally called a dog, but because they said that a dog is small, it would be bigger if he changed his name to a donkey, so he changed his name to a donkey."If the master doesn't like to be called a donkey, he can just call him a dog.Shouted on both sides: Don't talk!Say less!Bao Gong shouted: "Dog."Answer: Yes.Just because Zhang Youdao's wronged soul came to the front of the government, saying that you had made a plan with the master and servant of Chen Dahu to murder him.But this matter is all Chen Dahu's plan to plot against Zhang Youdao's wife, Liu Shi. You are just sent by others, and you can't help yourself.Although it is a trivial matter to receive two ingots.You have to come from the truth, and I have my own government to rule with you, so that you can get rid of your crimes.You don't have to be busy, just speak slowly.When the dog heard the complaint from the wronged soul, he couldn't help being frightened.Later, I saw that the master amicably let go of his crimes and made decisions with him, so I felt relieved.That is to say, he kowtowed upward and said, "since the master has shown great kindness and made decisions with the villain, the villain has to tell the truth."Because the villain has friendship with Zhang Youdao's woman, but he has no friendship with Zhang Youdao.Zhang Youdao bumped into him that day, and he fell ill after running back, always missing Mrs. Liu.He didn't dare to go.So he came up with a way to kill Zhang Youdao. He either went to Liu's house or married Liu into his house, and then he was satisfied.Therefore, he called the villain to him and said, "I entrust you with a task."I said: What's the matter, master?He said: This matter is not easy, you have to search hard.I asked: what are you looking for?He said: This kind of thing is called a corpse turtle. It looks like a golden-headed worm with a shiny tail and is about the size of a gnat.I asked: Where did this kind of thing come from?He said: You have to look for it in the grave, and the corpse will always be melted. Only the brain is not dry, so there is this bug.As soon as the villain heard this, he felt troubled, and said: How can we find a way?Seeing that the villain was in trouble, he gave the villain two ingots and asked the villain to keep it for himself. After the matter was completed, he would give you six acres of land.No matter the day, I will always find it.Don't do any work during the day, but keep your spirit up, so it's easy to find at night.But what the master said, you can't help yourself when you are sent by others.He also said that being entrusted by others is the last person's business.So the villain went out to dig the graves every night, until he got to the seventeenth grave, and finally got this worm.If it is dried in the sun, ground into powder, or sprinkled with tea or rice, it will surely die of distress without any scars.Only the small red dots in the middle of the eyebrows are the poison.Later I heard that Zhang Youdao died, probably because of this kind of thing.I beg the master and the villain to be the masters.After listening to Bao Gong's words, there is probably no falsehood.The clerk presented the confession, and Bao Gong read it, took it down and called the dog to draw a trick.Sign out immediately and bring Chen Yingjie.The master told the dog again: "When Chen Dahu came to the case when he was young, you have to confront him face to face, so that the master can decide with you."The dog agrees.Bao Gong nodded and ordered to take it down.

I saw the messenger kneel down in the hall and said: "Chen Yingjie got it."Bao Gong ordered again to pass on Liu's and You's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.First bring Chen Dahu to the hall, and go to the torture tools in the hall.Bao Gong asked: "Chen Yingjie, why did you murder Zhang Youdao?"Come from the truth.When Chen Dahu heard this, he was frightened and suspicious, and quickly said: "That's not the case, Master Qingtian!" Bao Gong slapped the gavel and said: "You bold slave, do you dare to hesitate in front of the hall?"Left and right, bring the dog.Immediately bring the dog to the court to testify face to face with Chen Yingjie.The big family was so frightened that they shook their clothes and fought. After a while, they said: "The villain and Mrs. Liu have committed adultery, and there is no right way to murder him."These are all nonsense words of a dog, the master must never believe it.Baogong was furious and ordered to watch the big punishment.Shouting from left and right, he threw Sanmu into the hall, frightened Chen Dahu to the point of fright, and said quickly: "I'm willing to recruit, I'm willing to recruit."

So he searched for the dead turtle with the dog, quietly handed it over to Mrs. Liu, called him tea or rice, and immediately died of heartache, and told him to rest assured that there was no scar or even blood, and told him from beginning to end.Bao Gong read the confession and asked him to draw a trick.I saw the officer report: "Liu's mother-in-law and You's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have all passed it on."Bao Gong ordered Liu Shi to be taken first.I saw that Mrs. Liu was still complacent, coming to the hall, and seeing Chen Dahu at a glance, he didn't feel that his face had changed, his expression was flustered, and he couldn't help but kneel down.Bao Gong didn't ask Liu Shi, but asked Chen Dahu to confront the woman face to face.Chen Dahu cried to Mrs. Liu: You and I thought it was a secret when we did this, and no one will know about it.Unexpectedly, Zhang Youdao's wronged soul went to the master's stage, and the matter had been revealed, so he had to be recruited.I've already made a move.You should also paint it, so as not to suffer from flesh and blood.

When the woman heard this, she cursed: My enemy!I didn't expect you to be so pusty, and I couldn't do anything.Now that you have accepted, how can I refuse?I had no choice but to kowtow upwards and said: Zhang Youdao, who murdered his husband, is the truth, and there is no other words.Even when Zhang Zhiren molested him, he was also falsely accused.Bao Gong also painted his handprints.He brought You's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to the hall.The mother-in-law cried out about the past, and said that there was no support: just because Chen Dahu had promised a few acres of land, the mother-in-law was afraid that he would make false accusations, so she asked someone to write a letter.As he spoke, he took out the words from his sleeve and presented them.

When Bao Gong saw it, he recognized Gongsun Ce's handwriting, and smiled secretly in his heart: "No way, this is going to blackmail the big family."Then he said to Chen Dahu, "Why don't you give him the land you promised him?"Chen Dahu had no choice but to agree to allocate a few acres of land to You's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law because of what he had said at the beginning.Bao Gong ordered the county to handle it. Bao Gong asked Chen Dahu again, "How do you know the prescription of the corpse turtle?" Chen Dahu replied: It was my teacher who taught me.Bao Gong immediately sent this gentleman to ask him how he knew and why he taught him this way?Mr. Fei Shiqi replied: The villain has always studied some doctors, because he knows the properties of medicine, or when he finishes his homework, or on a windy and rainy day, he talks with Dongren from time to time.Because it is mentioned that this medicine should not be used indiscriminately, and that it has six channels and eight adverse reactions, it is the most poisonous thing, so the corpse turtle is mentioned.The villain had no intention of chatting, but the boss had a heart to remember, so something happened.Ask the master to investigate carefully.Bao Gong nodded and said, "Although you said this unintentionally, it's just inappropriate to speak to bandits."This matter should also be thin and sinful, and it is considered a warning to gossip.Immediately handle the documents and deport him back to his hometown.Liu's order was Ling Chi, Chen Dahu's order was to be executed, and Gou'er was ordered to be hanged.Plaintiff Zhang Zhiren is fine.

Bao Gong retired from the hall and came to the study, where he discounted the price and asked Gongsun Ce to transcribe it.Just as Gongsun Ce finished writing, Bao Xing came in, holding another piece of paper in his hand, and said to Gongsun Ce: "The master told me to make a clear copy of this and put it in the fold, and play it together with the fold tomorrow morning." The husband took a look and stared in a daze. After a while, he said, "Should I just write it like this?" Bao Xing said: "Master wrote it himself, and asked Mr. to transcribe it clearly. Is there any reason not to write it as it is?"

Gongsun Ce nodded and said: Put it down, I will just write it.I feel so uncomfortable.It turned out that this clip was for Chenzhou to release grain to those who shouldn't be trusted by the Jiaofang, saying that the Holy Majesty employed people improperly, and blindly contradicted words.How can Gongsun Ce have no reason not to be alarmed?Just write it down, if you hand it in tomorrow, I'm afraid it will be a resignation form.I, Gongsun Ce, have always had bad luck, and it happens that these things happen to me, so I have to listen to it tomorrow.Let's plan again. On the fifth drum of the next day, Bao Gong went to court.On this day, my husband, Chen Banban, was picking up the booklet. After handing it in for a long time, he summoned Bao Gong.It turned out that when the Holy Majesty met Baogong Zhezi, Long Xin was very displeased at first, but then he thought about it again, this was outspoken and dared to remonstrate, and he was loyal to the country, so he turned his anger into joy and summoned him immediately.Under Bao Gong's performance, the Ming dynasty's Chen Zhou Fang relief may have emotional disadvantages.

Therefore, the Holy Lord granted Baogong the title of Grand Master of Longtuge University, and he still took care of Kaifeng government affairs, went to Chenzhou to inspect the relief and manage the people's sentiments.Bao Gong didn't thank you, but knelt down and said: "I have no authority, I can't convince the public, and it's hard to obey the imperial edict."The sage said: "Who dares not accept the three rewards of Qing Yuzha again?"Bao Gong thanked him and led the decree to leave the court. Let's talk about Gongsun Ce ever since Bao Gong entered the court, he has been worried and restless, he wants to pack his luggage and get up, but he is afraid that rumors will confuse the public, so he has to endure it.Suddenly, I heard a voice shouting, thinking that something was wrong.When he was panicking, he saw Bao Xing first came in and told him that the master was conferred the title of Grand Master of LongTuge by the Holy Majesty and sent to Chenzhou to check for relief.Gongsun Ce was overjoyed when he heard this.Bao Xing said: "I am specially sent here to discuss with my husband, to send the good news, etc., and they are not allowed to make noise here."Gongsun Ce rejoiced and discussed with Bao Xing, and after rewarding the good news, not long after, Bao Gong went down to court.After everyone had finished their congratulations, they said to Gongsun Ce: "The Holy Majesty gave me three royal letters. Don't be careless, sir."You must read it carefully for me, and don't disappoint the grace of God.After all, I went inside.This sentence stunned Gongsun Ce, and he went back to his room, thinking about it, suddenly realized, and said: Yes!This is the method of chasing guests.If you don't want to use me, you can't rely on your sympathy, so you use such a difficult topic.Why don't I do this and fool around a bit, first to show my ambitions, and second to see Bao Gong's courage.Left and right are parting ways!So I studied the ink and dipped in the pen, first measured the size, and wrote clearly.Later, I wrote how to do it, and divided it into upper, middle and lower grades, the styles of dragon, tiger and dog.He drew three guillotines with a brush, and deliberately used calligraphy as a guillotine, making three knives in three ways, to see what Bao Gong had to say.After painting, come to the study.Bao Xing came back to understand, please come in, Mr. Bao.Gongsun Ce presented the painting list, thinking that Bao Gong would be furious, and it was over with each other.Unexpectedly, Bao Gong was not only not angry, but when he saw the single one, he couldn't help but be full of joy, and he hurriedly praised Mr. for being a genius!Immediately asked Bao Xing to summon the carpenter.Just ask Mr. to point out that you must put on a show all night and submit it to the court tomorrow morning.Hearing this, Gongsun Ce was so stunned that he couldn't even speak.In this matter, I have to say that I painted it for fun, and I can't change my mouth.I also saw Bao Gong urging the foreign class to pass on the craftsmen.Seeing that he really wanted to deal with this matter, Gongsun Ce had to withdraw, searched the list carefully again, and added how to wrap copper leaves, how to nail gold nails, how to install the ghost king's head, and added many other colors.Not long after, craftsmen and servants arrived.Gongsun Ce first asked him to look at it, and then taught him how to do it.Everyone didn't know what it was useful for, so they had to swing as ordered.Everyone was in a hurry and made a fuss all night before they could swing.When Bao Gong was about to go to court, he all looked at it, and ordered to put it in a yellow box and carry it to the middle of the court, ready for imperial viewing.

Bao Gong came to the court in a sedan chair. After three shouts, he went out to play and said: "My minister Bao Zheng received the holy grace yesterday and gave him three swords. I will follow the order and draw up the style. I dare not use it. I would like to present it to the emperor."While talking, the yellow box has already been carried and placed on the hall.The Holy Majesty glanced at it, and it turned out that there were three guillotines, divided into dragons, tigers, and dogs.Bao Gong said again: "If there are offenders, they will act according to their grades."The Holy Majesty already understood that Baogong intended to use the sound of the script to change it into a guillotine, and make it into a three-cut guillotine, thinking it would be used to scare foreign officials.It is not a certain day to ask for training, and when the imperial punishment is completed, get up quickly.Bao Gong thanked him and went out to the sedan chair.As soon as I arrived at the market, I saw ten elders kneeling down together, holding a speech.Bao Gong saw clearly from inside the sedan chair, and stomped his foot on the bottom of the sedan chair. This was a signal, and the bearer stopped immediately.Bao Xing hastily lifted the car curtain slightly, and handed the child in.Not long after, Bao Gong ordered the car curtain to be raised.

Bao Xing quickly raised the car curtain.I saw Bao Gong tore the paper into pieces, threw it on the ground, and said in his mouth, "what's the matter with these troublemakers?"Ask the local government to take him outside the city, lest there will be troubles in the city.After all, he got up in the sedan chair and went by himself.These elders, weeping and complaining, said: We have worked tirelessly to go to the capital, hoping to avenge our grievances, but this master is also afraid of power, it is better to meet him than to be famous.I have nothing to complain about when I am wronged.After all, he burst into tears again.The place nearby urged: "Let's go, don't make us suffer."Size is an errand, and crying is useless. Where is there no one who dies?After hearing this, everyone had to follow the place out of the city. As soon as I arrived outside the city, I saw a horse galloping forward and told the local people: "Send them out of the city, you don't have to worry about it, just go back."The place quickly agreed, pulled away and went back.It was Bao Xing who came, and he followed Ding's father to a place where no one was there, and Fang told them: "It's not that the master is not allowed to present a son."Because there are too many eyes and ears on the streets, it is not beautiful to leak the wind.The master told you all not to disperse, and to find a secluded place to hide, and secretly asked the master if we got up, and asked you to go with us.Now let's call two older people to follow me quietly into the city and ask questions at the yamen.Everyone is happy when they hear it.Among them, two elders called alone followed Ding Baoxing far away to Kaifeng mansion.Bao Xing went in to return to the Ming Dynasty, and Fang brought the two elders to the study.Bao Gong asked again carefully.It turned out that there were thirteen families, some of whom were put in prison, and some who could not come.Bao Gong told them: "Don't make any noise outside. When I get up, I will go with you."The two old men kowtowed and thanked them, and went out of the city anyway. Let’s say that after Baogong played Ming’s imperial punishment, he ordered Gongsun Ce to supervise the construction, to be majestic and impressive, and to be pure, honest and strong.So four warriors, Wang, Ma, Zhang and Zhao, were sent to serve the imperial punishment: the dynasty held the sword, Ma Han rolled the mat to tie up the people, and Zhang Long and Zhao Hu carried the people into the guillotine.In addition to supervising the construction, Gongsun Ce and the four warriors serve the imperial punishment every day, practice the rules, set the rules and regulations, and do not mess them up. In a few days, the imperial punishment has been built.After Bao Gong asked for training, countless officials came to farewell.Bao Gong enshrined the imperial punishment in the hall, and waited for all the officials to come together to inspect the imperial punishment.Everyone thought it was a novelty, and they were about to see what the law was.From time to time, they all went to the court, and saw that there were yellow dragon fur coats on the three imperial guillotines, and the four warriors were valiant and high-spirited. They are all vertical and chilly, which makes people feel chilled.When an upright gentleman sees it, he can still support it, but when a treacherous villain sees it, his soul will fly away.It is really a punishment that has never existed since ancient times. After everyone read it, some praised it, some said it was strange, some secretly said it was harsh, and some secretly said it was troublesome, and they all had different opinions.Everyone had to say goodbye, and Baogong sent him to Yimen and returned to the back.All the internal and external deacons got up in a hurry.Bao Gong secretly ordered Tian Zhong to follow Gongsun Ce.On the day of departure, many colleagues saw off at the ten-mile long pavilion, so there is no need to make a detailed list.Along the way, the elders who called the complaint also secretly followed. One day Bao Gong went to Sanxing Town, saw the ground was quiet, thought to himself: the local officials have a good system.Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard the voice of injustice, but no one was seen.Bao Xing had already dismounted from his horse, and followed the sound to find it. He was in the empty willow tree by the roadside, and when he showed his body, it was a woman again, with words on her head and knees on her knees.Bao Xing hastily took the present.At this time, the sedan chair has stopped, and he stepped forward and handed the certificate into the sedan chair.After reading it, Bao Gong said to the woman: "Your letter said that there is no one in the family, but who wrote this letter?"The woman replied: I have been familiar with poetry and books since I was a child, my father and brother are all tributes, and the husband who married is also a scholar, and I often write and ink.Bao Gong asked Bao Xing to hand over the accompanying paper, ink, pen and inkstone to the woman and write another one.I saw that the woman presented it without thinking about it.Bao Gong took a look, nodded again and again and said, "that woman, you go back first to listen to the preaching."When I arrive at the mansion, I will interrogate this matter with you.The woman kowtowed and said: Thank you Lord Qingtian! At that moment, Mr. Bao got up his sedan chair and went straight to the mansion.If you don't know what happened next, let's listen to the next chapter.
