Forty-eight years of Qianlong

Chapter 38 The One Pillar Building in Dongtai ([-])

Before you know it, night falls.

Lu Shoushan explained the cause and effect of the incident, and it was really hard for him to remember it so clearly.

A Miao brought them dinner, but everyone forgot to eat it.

Lu Shoushan said for a long time, and his mouth was dry, so he drank the little residual tea in the cup.

Wang Yuanfang, who was sitting beside him, picked up the teapot and filled Lu Shoushan with water, and asked, "Are the Xu family arrested?"

Lu Shoushan had a painful expression on his face, and after a long daze, he said, "They've all been arrested. The housekeeper, me, Xiucheng brothers... none of them escaped." Other distant relatives surnamed Xu, as well as distant relatives of Xu Shoufa and Shen Chengzhuo, fled one after another, and have since changed their names and surnames, and are nowhere to be found.)
"What happened later?" Several people in the tent asked in unison.

"In November of that year, the imperial decree of Lord Qianlong was issued. The eldest young master, the second young master, as long as the Xu family is over sixteen years old, all beheaded. The family's female relatives, children, and us are all exiled to Ninggu Pagoda. slave."

Deng Fei asked curiously at this time: "Then the old grandfather of the Xu family and the grandfather Xu have both passed away, shouldn't it be alright?"

"Dig the grave... Ling Chi smashes the corpse... The owl's head is displayed to the public!" Lu Shoushan mustered all his strength and said these ten words through gritted teeth.At this moment, his eyes became blood red, and the white porcelain teacup in his hand exploded with a "pop", which was actually shattered by him.

A streak of blood flowed onto the mat along the wound in the palm.

"Go and get the medicine box in the car!" Zhao Xin quickly shouted to Liu Sheng when he saw it.

Several people in the tent gathered around to check the injury, while Liu Sheng quickly ran out of the tent.

"This..." Deng Fei couldn't ask anymore.

Zhao Xin patted Lu Shoushan on the shoulder and said softly, "Brother Lu, let go of your hand, I have to help you choose the broken pieces of porcelain."

Several people around looked at Lu Shoushan with red eyes and tears, not knowing what to say for a while.

When Lu Shoushan was in grief and anger, he seemed to have forgotten the pain in his hand, and he was about to wipe his tears when he lifted his injured left hand.Wang Yuanfang on the side quickly suppressed Lu Shoushan's arm, then took a clean towel from A Miao's hand and put it on Lu Shoushan's right hand.

Liu Sheng quickly brought the medicine box. As soon as he took out the iodine, he heard Zhao Xin say, "Give me the tweezers first, there are still tiles in the wound."

Zhao Xin took the tweezers and offered to take out the broken porcelain from Lu Shoushan's wound; when it was cleaned up, he wiped the wound with cotton wool and iodine, and finally sprinkled the white medicine and bandaged it.

To say that the small company that Zhao Xin runs by himself has few customers, he has learned a lot of daily first aid knowledge.

After the wound was bandaged, Liu Sheng and Wang Yuanfang helped Lu Shoushan to lie down and covered him with a quilt.Zhao Xin looked at the fire in the stove and added a few pieces of wood.

The narration for several hours is like uncovering the scars that have healed; the bloody past exhausted the man in his 30s.After A Miao fed some water to Lu Shoushan, he slowly fell asleep.

When everyone saw this, they couldn't ask any more questions, so they got up and walked out of the tent.

At this time, Zhao Xin and the others didn't know that the final ending of "One Pillar Tower Poem Case" was far more than what Lu Shoushan described.

In October of the 43rd year of Qianlong, the Qing court's Metropolitan Procuratorate, Dali Temple, Taichang Temple, Guanglu Temple and other nine ministers jointly tried the "Xu Family Rebellion Case".

In November, nine ministers, including Agui, Zuo Shilang and Shen, made a proposal to Qianlong: Xu Shukui's son, grandson, brother, younger brother, brother's son, all those over the age of sixteen will be beheaded, and those under the age of 15 and their wives, concubines, and sisters will be killed The wives and concubines of sisters and sons are paid to the hero's family as slaves, and their property enters the government.

At the end of November, Qianlong issued a decree to spread the word to the world.

The case was handled as follows:
Xu Shukui wrote poems and Xu Huaizu published them.Although both of them have died of illness, they "still smashed their corpses and showed their heads to the public in accordance with the law of Great Rebellion and Ling Chi."Xu Shukui, who had been dead for 15 years, had his coffin cut open and his head hanged in Dongtai County for public display.

Xu Huaizu died for more than a year, his body was crushed, and his head was displayed to the public.

The brothers Xu Shitian and Xu Shishu were the grandsons of the criminals and were beheaded.

Anyone over the age of 16 in the Xu family will be beheaded.

The Xu family under the age of 15 and a group of female family servants were sent to Ningguta as slaves.

All the Xu family property was confiscated, and the one-pillar building was demolished.

Lu Yan, as an aide of Tao Yi, the political envoy, made random comments and manuscripts, reversed right and wrong, deliberately eliminated serious crimes, and executed them according to the crimes of contempt.No property was seized, and his wives, concubines and children were not slaves to the banner.

Tao Yi, as a high-ranking official of the vassal, did not personally review the rebuke book, but sent it to the governor to file it in detail.No property was seized, and his wives, concubines and children were not slaves to the banner. (After being personally interrogated by Qianlong, Tao Yi was determined by Qianlong that he had "heartedly protected him, so he committed great rebellion", was bribed by Xu Shitian, and then died in prison due to illness. However, he still did not escape this knife, He went to the guillotine with the above-mentioned five people, and cut off their bodies with a guillotine.)
Xie Qikun, the prefect of Yangzhou, when Xu Shukui's poems happened, although he switched to the vassal's text without partiality and was able to check out the rebellious words one by one, but after half a month's delay, he began to report to his superiors. , sent to the military platform to serve as atonement.Immediate release to Heilongjiang Mohe military station. (This Xie Zhifu later paid money to discuss the crime and was exempted from exile. Soon he took the seat of the Shanxi governor.)
Tu Yuelong, magistrate of Dongtai County.When the case of Xu Shukui's poems happened, he failed to investigate in time, and blamed Jiangning Bookstore.With a staff of [-], he acted for three years, and he was sent to Yili on the same day.

Huang Bin, formerly known as Mao Cheng, was a school teacher in the Yamen of the Tea and Salt Field.Later, he went to Shaanxi to serve as a staff officer, changed his name, and was admitted to Juren.However, both eggs were seized and the case was seized, but he was spared death.

Qianlong said that in his postscript, he was "extremely praised, but it was actually a rebellion, and he went to Gansu and Shaanxi later. Those who were lenient and fell, his postscript contained the phrase 'Mr.'s holy dynasties during his lifetime.' Hundreds, three thousand miles, and will be delivered to Hainan Island immediately."

Shen Deqian, a great scholar in Suzhou, once wrote the preface to "One Pillar Tower Poems".Qianlong sent the guards of the Qianqing Palace, together with the governor of Jiangsu, to go to the Shen family cemetery in Suzhou to destroy the inscriptions on the funeral inscriptions and remove the gravel elsewhere.All the official titles and palace titles and posthumous codes of Shen Deqian were removed.The tablets of the Xiangxian Temple were also withdrawn.All the descendants of the Shen family were present, kneeling to listen to the decree, and watching the destruction process.

As for the plaintiff, Cai Jiashu, who plotted Xu Jiatian's property, Qianlong believed that this person and Xu Shukui were in the same family.It was only because of the recent litigation involving the field property that he was accused of reporting it, and it was not "actually aware of the fact that you are respecting the emperor."But Ni Shu was the one who denounced him and was released on bail.This is a typical self-harm.

Gao Jin, the then governor of Liangjiang, Sa Zai, governor of Liangjiang, and Yang Kui, governor of Jiangsu, who were responsible for investigating the case, were also reprimanded by Qianlong in the edict.

The matter has come to this point, but the aftermath of the "Yizhulou Poetry Case" has continued until three years later.

In the 46th year of Qianlong, someone found out that Xu Shukui had written a preface for a man named Wang Guodong in Xinghua. As a result, Wang Guodong was beheaded, and his father Wang Zhongru was opened and killed.

Zheng Banqiao, who had been dead for more than ten years, was also implicated in the case.Because he and Wang Guodong were good friends, all of his anthologies that were printed, imitated, and reprinted after the 46th year of Qianlong were all shoveled (the three characters "Wang Guodong" were shoveled from the stereotyped board.)
　Say a few words.In order to write the two chapters of "Yizhulou Poetry Case", I actually consulted a lot of information. "Records of the Qing Dynasty" contains all the edicts on the case in the 43rd and 46th years of Qianlong; "Records of the Qing Palace" contains the memorials of Liu Yong, Gao Jin, Sa Zai, and Yang Kui on the case in the 43rd year of Qianlong's reign; The memorial and Qianlong's edict on the final disposition.There are several articles about this case on the Internet, which can also be found on Wikipedia.But I still want to deduce it into the novel after reading all the real historical materials.After reading all the historical materials according to the timeline, you can basically understand the whole thing.too tired!Go to the grave tomorrow morning and update it in the afternoon.
