Chapter 504

When Li Zhenwu led the main troops of Jinyiwei and Imperial Guards to Wei Guogong's mansion to arrest Xu Wenjue and others, he also sent out multiple teams to arrest other people involved in the case.

Chunhua Town, Yang Village.

Inside the Yang family mansion.

"Snapped!"

Yang Zhicai slapped Xiao Lian's face with a slap, causing Xiao Lian to fall to the ground with a slap mark on her face.

"Pinch your legs and you can run away, you bitch, are you thinking about that dog surnamed Qin?!" Yang Zhicai glared at Xiaolian and cursed.

Since the trial of Qin Guanwen in the Shangyuan County Court ended and Xiao Lian was brought back, Yang Zhicai found it unpleasant no matter how he looked at it, and it was not the first time that he beat her.

Xiaolian cried and explained, "I don't have a body... I just want to be noble. Master, please, just let me see Dagui?"

It turned out that Xiaolian also had a younger brother named Wu Dagui.

Before, Yang Zhicai controlled Xiaolian's younger brother Wu Dagui in order to ensure that Xiaolian would seduce and frame Qin Guanwen as he asked.

Wu Xiaolian thought that she would be able to see her younger brother after the matter was over, but in the past few days she mentioned it twice, but Yang Zhicai shrugged it off.

Hearing Wu Xiaolian's request again, Yang Zhicai showed an angry look, and his eyes slightly dodged.

Because Wu Dagui was gone.

Originally, he sent two followers to watch Wu Dagui in a courtyard in the town, but after he came back from Shangyuan County Court, all three of them disappeared without a trace.

This matter has become a heart problem for Yang Zhicai, and it is also the main reason why he has been irritable these days, beating and scolding concubines and servants frequently.

"I'll see you if you say I'll see you?" Yang Zhicai simply kicked Xiao Lian again, "Who are you? You're just a cheap concubine I bought back!"

Concubines are also divided into categories.

Some concubines have a head and a face and a natal family, and they marry in according to the rules.Some concubines were bought by the masters for fun, and no one asked whether they gave them away or sold them when they got tired of playing.

Xiaolian belongs to the latter category.

Yang Zhicai kicked and still felt unrelieved, and then stood up and kicked the second and third kicks... as if he wanted to vent all the annoyance in his heart on Xiao Lian.

Xiao Lian was kicked and screamed, but none of the servants outside the house dared to intervene.

Seeing that one of Xiao Lian's legs was about to be kicked off, there were suddenly screams and screams from outside the house.

Yang Zhicai finally stopped, and asked angrily, "What's the noise outside?!"

"Master, it's not good, officers and soldiers rushed in!" The housekeeper ran into the inner courtyard where Yang Zhicai was and shouted.

"What?!" Yang Zhicai was flustered when he heard this, and was about to run away.

He felt that the incident of framing Qin Guanwen happened before, after all, the disappearance of those two servants and Wu Dagui was too strange.

As a result, just as Yang Zhicai walked out of the inner courtyard, he was kicked to the ground by the imperial guards who rushed in and easily grabbed him.

Then all members of the Yang family were taken down, including Wu Xiaolian who was kicked and limped by Yang Zhicai.

"Why do you arrest me?" Yang Zhicai, who came back to his senses, struggled and shouted, surrounded by many people in Yang Village, "Why, after suing one of your commissioners, you started arresting people indiscriminately? Do you want to talk about the king's law?!"

"Want to talk about the king's law?" A Jinyiwei Xiaoqi led a group of people over, looked at Yang Zhicai coldly, "Okay, I will tell you about the king's law today!"

After speaking, he waved his hand, and the three of them were brought before him.

It was Yang Zhicai who disappeared the two servants and Wu Dagui.

Then another manager of the Yang family was pushed out. He lowered his head and dared not look at Yang Zhicai.

Jin Yiwei Xiaoqi looked around at the people of Yang Village, and said loudly: "Everyone, I, Jin Yiwei, have found out the case of Qingzhang Commissioner Qin Guanwen strongly base Yang Zhicai's concubine Xiaolian a few days ago. It is indeed Yang Zhicai's premeditated plan to frame Qingzhang Commissioner on purpose. , intending to obstruct the court's land tax reform.

After all, if the two policies of clearing the farmland and distributing the land into the mu continue, their Yang family's land will shrink to [-]% from [-]%, and they will have to bear more land taxes and service money in the future.

If you folks in Yangcun don't believe me, just listen to the confessions of these people.Manager Yang Er, let's talk about it first. "

Then, under the auspices of Jin Yiwei Xiaoqi, Manager Yang Er and others made it clear that Yang Zhicai deliberately set up a trap to frame Qin Guanwen, and even exposed several other murders committed by Yang Zhiwen.

The ordinary people in Yang Village saw the majestic Master Yang being knocked down, applauded one after another, and even followed to expose the evil deeds committed by Yang Zhicai on weekdays...

Yingtianfu No. [-] Prison.

The prison reform is part of the previous reform of the county government, courts and other departments.

Today, the prisons in the whole of Nanzhili are divided into two types: one is the temporary prison for mortals, with one for the police station and one for the court; the other is the prisons for long-term criminals.

The prisons of each government are located outside the city, like a closed manor. The conditions inside are much better than prisons, but the criminals need to work every day.

In the words of prison officials, it is to accept labor reform and create value for Ming Dynasty to atone for sins.

Qin Guanwen was twisting the hemp rope when two guards came over and said, "Qin Guanwen, your mother is here to see you."

Qin Guanwen was stunned when he heard the words, and then followed the two to the special visiting room.

After seeing his mother, Qin Guanwen couldn't hold back immediately.

But after ten days or so, his mother was already covered in white hair and looked extremely haggard, like an old lady in her 60s.

"Mother, my son is unfilial, I'm sorry!"

Qin Guanwen threw himself in front of the bars, held the hand extended by his mother, and cried loudly.

The remorse in my heart is like ten thousand ants eating my heart.

Qin's mother also had tears in her eyes, "Son, mother is useless. Even if you sell all your belongings, you still can't find a lawyer to sue for you. But don't worry, mother will help you complain even if she stops the official sedan chair in the street and sues the imperial court."

"Mother," Qin Guanwen held his mother's hand tightly and shook his head, "Forget it, you just don't have me as an unfilial son, you take care of yourself alone, woo woo woo..."

Qin Guanwen knew that his crime had been proven, even if his mother sued, it would not be rehabilitated.

After all, he did sleep with Yang Zhicai's concubine.

Just as the mother and son were crying bitterly, two officials in green robes came over.

One of them said: "Qin Guanwen, there is a new situation in your case. Jin Yiwei found out that you were actually framed by Yang Zhicai and Wu Xiaolian.

However, it is also true that you have sex with other wives and concubines after drinking, which not only violates the discipline of the Qingzhang Commissioner, but also violates the "Law of the Ming Dynasty".

Your Majesty decrees that you will be punished with a reduced crime.Therefore, your sentence was changed from hanging to serving in the Gansu Army for three years. "

Hearing the words of the green-robed official, the mother and son were taken aback.

Immediately, Qin's mother knelt down and kowtowed to the two officials, and said repeatedly: "Thank you, Master Qingtian, for rehabilitating my son..."

Although three years of exile in Gansu is also a heavy punishment, it is obviously much lighter than hanging. At least the incense of the Qin family is temporarily preserved.

The green-robed official motioned to the staff next to him to help Qin's mother up, and said, "Don't thank me, old man. This case was discovered by Jin Yiwei, and the decree is from His Majesty. If you want to thank, you can thank Your Majesty."

"Jin Yiwei, Your Majesty..." Mother Qin was stunned.

Immediately, he bowed and kowtowed in the direction of the Forbidden City, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for rehabilitating my son..."

In the room, Qin Guanwen also kowtowed and kowtowed in the direction of Zijin City with tears in his eyes.

The commissioner of Qingzhang who was framed like Qin Guanwen accounted for at least half of the more than a dozen cases. Some were acquitted, and some were reduced. They were all grateful to Aimee Zhu.

As for those who were not framed by others, but were caught after breaking the law, they should be beheaded and exiled.

Because the Fusi people in Jinyiwei Nanzhen made arrangements at the beginning of the land tax reform, and with the assistance of the imperial guards, they were arrested at an extremely fast speed, and even in Wei Guogong's mansion, Ying Tianfu conspired to obstruct the land tax reform. More than half of the nobles and the hardcore elements of the big landlords were arrested.

Therefore, until the arrest operation that lasted for several days ended, the nobles and big landlords of Yingtian Mansion did not make any waves.

Just in mid-December, when the "Da Ming Pao" was published, it made a "detailed" report on the matter, explaining to the people the plots designed by the nobles and landlords to hinder the land tax reform, and explaining the plots of the Xungui and the landlords. Why do nobles and landlords obstruct land tax reform?

After this report came out, it aroused the attention and discussion of many people...
 Second more.

  Good night~
