Chapter 14 Qin Ji satirized the officials of the capital
She was just about to leave, but was stopped by the governor Chen Lianghan behind her.

"Stop, do you also know that you are just a small Juren?"

"You little Juren dare to openly insult my mother and wife in the courtroom. Do you think this official will just let you go?"

Chen Lianghan looked at Jiang Zhao's thin back and asked furiously.

Although his wife and mother are not as noble as the empress dowager and empress, they are not something that a poor family can casually mention.

What's more, this little poor family still compares his mother with a lowly commoner, how can this make him not angry, not angry?
For Jiang Zhao who was called, the anger on her face was gone at this time, and all that was left was calm.

She turned around slowly, looked at Chen Lianghan calmly, and asked in a light tone: "Then I don't know what your lord wants?"

"You harass the court at night and insult the official's wife and mother. According to the law, you should be exiled for five hundred miles."

"But I think you are still young and don't know right from wrong, so I don't want to punish you so severely."

Jiang Zhao frowned slightly, looking at Chen Lianghan, wondering what kind of punishment he would make.

Chen Lianghan paused for a moment, then continued: "However, capital punishment is inevitable, and living punishment is inevitable. Although you are young, you have reached the age of the governor. This officer should teach you a lesson, so that you will not be so ignorant in the future."

After finishing speaking, Chen Lianghan took out a command arrow from the command arrow barrel, threw it on the ground, and said loudly: "Come on, take him to the hall, and fight twenty big boards."

Hearing Chen Lianghan's order, Jiang Zhao sneered.

Before he could say anything, Wei Xiang, who was standing by the side, stepped forward and said angrily: "My young master is a juren. According to the laws of Tianyu, unless a juren breaks the law, unless he is exonerated, officials from all over the place are not allowed to use punishment privately."

"Snapped--"

There was another sound of a gavel in the courtroom.

What followed was Chen Lianghan's furious voice: "Presumptuous! How can you, a slave, have the right to speak in the courtroom!"

"Come here, beat this slave battle to [-] boards!"

Jiang Zhao immediately stopped the arrester who wanted to arrest Wei Xiang, looked at Chen Lianghan and said coldly: "Although he is a slave, what he said is the truth."

"I am a juren, and a juren has the right not to kneel before officials and not to be punished for committing crimes."

Instead of being angry, Chen Lianghan laughed, and said angrily: "Okay, you are a juren, you can see officials without kneeling, and you will not be punished for committing crimes."

"But the slave next to you is not a slave, but a small slave. I still have the right to punish a slave if I want to."

After finishing speaking, he ordered the arresters to take Wei Xiang to the hall.

Jiang Zhao naturally refused to let them take Wei Xiang down.

It's just that although these arrests are not qualified, they are all public officials. If they are hurt, Jiang Zhao's future will be ruined, and the two of them will end up with a reputation as a villainous master and servant.

Wei Xiang decided that it was impossible for him to destroy Jiang Zhao's future, so he stood still and let the police arrest him.

Although Jiang Zhao intends to stop her, but she is a scholar and a woman. Apart from her talent, she has no ability to resist at this time.

She did not expect that the damage to the family of the Tianyu Dynasty would be so serious.

At the feet of the emperor, the Governor of Kyoto dared to arrest and beat others.

Jiang Zhao looked at Chen Lianghan who was sitting upright watching the play, and said angrily, "My lord is acting like this, but how is it different from Qin Jile in the poem?"

Chen Lianghan didn't know what Qin Jile was, so he asked, "What is Qin Jile?"

Jiang Zhao looked at Chen Lianghan and sneered, and read.

"Qin Ji is here, leaving Nanzhong, the color hair is blue and black, and the neck is red;"

"The ear is clever, the heart is clever, and the tongue is clever, and the bird's language and the human's language are all intelligible."

Hearing Jiang Zhao read a few sentences, Chen Lianghan didn't understand. From Jiang Zhao's tone before, Chen Lianghan understood that Qin Ji is not a good thing.

Although he didn't know what Qin Jile meant, the two poems written by Jiang Zhao were obviously describing birds, so what did it have to do with him?

But he didn't speak, just listening to Jiang Zhao continue to read.

"Yesterday the long-clawed kite, today the toucan."

"The kite carries a nest of suckling swallows, and the black hen's eyes are dry."

When writing this, Chen Lianghan has already noticed something is wrong.

He is talented and talented, and he has naturally studied poetry.

But what Jiang Zhao wrote was about birds, not people. Although Chen Lianghan sensed something was wrong, he didn't know what Jiang Zhao's poem meant.

"The rooster fell to the ground and the swallow was shocked, and then picked up the eggs and grabbed the chicks."

"Are there no eagles and ospreys?"

"The meat in the crop is full and refuses to fight."

"There are also flocks of Luan and Cranes. Standing idle and raising their heights is not as good as hearing about them."

After reading this point, even though Jiang Zhao's poem did not directly express her thoughts, several living animal images were created in the short lines.

Their faces are vividly depicted, which can naturally remind people of the sinful faces of various officials of the Tianyu Dynasty.

Therefore, it is not difficult to see the symbolic meaning of the work from the lines.

Chen Lianghan was furious, and ordered his arresters not to let Jiang Zhao continue reading, but also to put him in prison.

But in the sky above Jiang Zhao's head, talents were slowly gathering, and visions appeared one after another.

Officials are well-dressed and eloquent above their official positions. The people below hope that they can serve as officials and the people, but they are cadavers. They only know how to collect money, but they turn a blind eye to the suffering.

The people had great expectations from the beginning, but they refused to save them.

Instead, he stepped on the corpses of the common people.

Everyone present seemed to feel the sorrow of the people in the vision.

One by one clutching their hearts in pain.

Only Jiang Zhao and Wei Xiang entered the arena, and they were not affected by the vision.

Jiang Zhao sneered as he looked at the miserable officials.

These people oppress the common people on weekdays, extracting the people's fat and anointing, that's why they are affected by the vision today.

If they really have a clear conscience, how can the vision affect them?
Jiang Zhao looked at these officials who fell to the ground in pain with cold eyes, ignored them, and continued to read.

"Qin Ji, people say that you are a bird of speech, don't you see the suffering of chickens and swallows?"

"I heard about the phoenix king of birds, but you didn't say a word for the phoenix, so I used noisy words."

In the last few sentences, chicken swallows are used to describe the common people at the bottom.

They have always been law-abiding, but when encountering unexpected disasters and losing their lives, no one stood up to uphold justice for them.

Those officials, either satiated all day long and watched in peace, or flew away and ignored the difficulties.

This poem uses various animals to map various officials of the Tianyu Dynasty, boldly exposes, deeply satirizes, and completely exposes the hypocrisy of the superficial justice and solemnity of the feudal dynasty.

Chen Lianghan looked at the vision in mid-air, and his nose was almost crooked from anger.

Isn't the official with the corpse in the vision his face?
The vision was in the mid-air above the capital city, and all the people in Huaijing City who were sleeping could see it.

However, the night market of the Tianyu Dynasty is developing well, and most of the people are still hanging around the night market at this time.

One of the people found a vision in mid-air, pointed at it and shouted loudly, "Look, what is that?"
