The reincarnation of transmigration is king

On the 16th day of the twelfth lunar month in the 26th year of Tianqing, it was the day of the Dongli Dynasty and the China Great Court Meeting.

The so-called Dachaohui is the gathering of all officials to meet the emperor.Because it is just in time for the end of the year, the big court meeting on this day is also a bit of a year-end summary plus a commendation meeting.

It was five o'clock in the morning, and it was still pitch black outside. Luo Ming dressed neatly and went to the imperial city in a sedan chair.

This is Luo Ming's first time participating in a court meeting, and the court clothes and other things were newly made this month. The black brocade robe is embroidered with gold and silver threads all over the color, and a four-clawed golden dragon is entangled on the chest, and the mouth of the dragon is straight to the shoulder. , There is a tendency to soar into the sky.

Luo Ming and Jiang Nianbai met each other in a hurry, they had nothing to say to each other, they got into the sedan chair respectively, the bearer raised the pole of the sedan chair, and steadily carried the sedan chair towards the direction of the imperial city.

The weather was still early at this time, and the dark sky was gradually turning from dark to bright. There were no pedestrians on the road, and most of the people I met occasionally were officials from the DPRK and China participating in the Great Court Assembly.

After entering the imperial city, many officials were already standing on the stone steps leading to Yongtai Hall. Luo Ming got off the sedan chair and met with all the adults. After exchanging pleasantries, they just waited for Tianqing Emperor Luo Ping to go to court.

After another half an hour, a young eunuch in the Yongtai Hall chanted loudly, and all the officials stepped up the stone steps one after another to enter the Yongtai Hall to meet him.

Standing according to the rank, everyone shouted long live.

After kneeling down three times and prostrating nine times, the masters of the provinces and Taoists played the scriptures.

This is the last court meeting before New Year's Day. After this court meeting, it will be the New Year. No one will make the emperor unhappy during the new year. Any disgusting things will be reported after the new year.

So today's memorials are all good news and not bad news, where the grain harvest is bumper, where the floods are dealt with, how many victories have been fought at the border, etc., all of which are good things.

Luo Ming, as Prince Jing, had the highest rank among the princes. He was standing at the next step of Luo Ping's throne. Opposite him was Liu Ziqi, General Zhen Guo, and the civil and military officials were lined up on both sides according to rank.

These are the most famous ones in the court. Outside the Yongtai Hall, there are many officials below the third rank standing on the stone steps. They are not qualified to enter the Yongtai Hall without an edict.

After listening to it for a while, Tianqing Emperor Luo Ping became a little bored. The melodies of these adults seemed to be written by one person. It was a fancy way of saying praises, but no one knew that the current Dongli treasury was empty. How many times this year? A province reported drought and flood, and the Ministry of Household Affairs couldn't even come up with the money for disaster relief, so it moved here and there. In the end, Luo Ping paid 10 taels of silver from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to save the emergency.

The emperor is not easy to do, he is obviously bored in his heart, and on the surface he still wants to put on an even and stable royal appearance. Luo Ping sits upright on the dragon chair, listening to the people below with one ear but the other. .

Luo Ping doesn't feel comfortable sitting, let alone standing.

It's been almost an hour, and the boss who read the memorial is still there, almost everyone is reading it lively. A memorial is written like a foot wrap, smelly and long.The civil servants are used to it, and they can still keep listening. The generals are all impatient, and they changed their left and right feet a few times. The old man is still stroking his beard and reading happily. He threw him out of the Yongtai Hall with his beard.

It's okay to think about it, how can I really do that.

The hall was extremely quiet, and everyone listened silently to the hoarse voice of the old man, feeling drowsy.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

Suddenly there was a thundering drum sound outside the Yongtai Hall, everyone was startled. There was only one possibility to hear the drum sound here - someone knocked on the Dengwen drum in front of the main gate of the imperial city!

The Dengwen Drum was set up by Tai/Zu, so that the common people can go up to the heaven to hear it and use it to sue the imperial court.In the nearly 200 years since Dong left the country, there are only two cases of knocking on the drum to report to the imperial court.

As for why there are so few, it is because if you want to beat the drum, the person who sues must pay a huge price. Unless you have suffered a strange injustice, no one will take this risk.It was originally an arrangement to appease the hearts of the people, and it would take one's life to achieve the goal. Who would dare to knock on Dengwen drum lightly.

The drum sounded three times, and the warriors in front of the hall had already returned from listening. They ran up the Yongtai Hall quickly, knelt down on one knee in front of Tianqing Emperor Luo Ping's throne, and said, "Long live Qi Zuo, someone is crying for grievances outside the Suzaku Gate!"

Luo Ping asked slowly, "Why don't you let him sue at the Yamen of Yousi?"

There are three divisions in Dongli: Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and Procuratorate.

People usually go to the local county government to file a complaint. If they feel that the county government’s judgment is unfair, they can go to the county government to file a lawsuit.Generally, the case of the joint trial of the three divisions is considered a major case, and if it can alarm the emperor, it will be a sensation in the court.

The samurai looked around, his eyes stayed on Jin Dayuan and the Minister of the Ministry of Justice for a moment, and he bowed and replied: "Long live back, the person who sued claims to be surnamed Yun, and he is a descendant of the Yunjiabao in the suburbs of Beijing. The person he wants to sue is Jin Dayuan, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and all the officials of the Ministry of Punishment. He dared not go to the Ministry of Punishment, so he could only go to the Golden Palace to file an imperial complaint and ask the emperor for a trial, saying that only in this way can the Yun family's grievances be cleared."

All the officials were in an uproar, and the Yunjiabao incident was full of uproar. More than [-] members of the whole family were buried in the flames, which can be said to be a strange case that shocked the world.

Everyone's memory is still fresh, and when they heard about the descendants of the Yun family, they were all surprised, "Didn't all the members of the Yun family be burned to death..."

"Hmph, it must be an imposter who made trouble for no reason. He even wanted to sue a first-rank official in the court. This accusation also sued more than 100 adults in the Ministry of Punishment. What a guts. It's really boring. "The one who spoke was Ding Wenjing, Shangshu of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, he and Jin Dayuan single-handedly handled the Yun family's case back then.

Ding Wenjing trembled in his heart when he heard the words of the descendants of the Yun family. Eleven years ago, he was bribed by Jin Dayuan and colluded with him to buy off a gang of thugs and kill more than 11 members of the Yun family. , and set fire to Yunjiabao, destroying the corpses and eradicating traces.

It is a surefire thing, after 11 years, such a big change suddenly happened, even though he has been in the officialdom for a long time, he couldn't help but feel guilty, he looked at Jin Dayuan, Minister of the Ministry of Officials in a panic, and saw him also with a dazed face, dumbstruck Yeah, obviously not sure what's going on.

Ding Wenjing has been an official for more than 20 years, his mind changed, and he suppressed the panic in his heart. He said what he said just now, trying to stop people from outside and prevent him from entering the Golden Palace.

Most of the officials agreed with Ding Wenjing's words.Many adults saw the case with their own eyes, and felt that there was nothing suspicious about it. The Ministry of Criminal Justice also had Yun Zhentian's personal statement, which was solid evidence, so there was nothing to doubt.What's more, the Yun family's case was ultimately settled on treason, and treason has been a taboo of the Tian family since ancient times, and it is very easy to be implicated, so no one dares to speak for the Yun family casually.

Jiang Nianbai stepped forward, bowed and said: "Long live, since the person here dares to sue, he must have been wronged. Why don't you ask him to go to the Golden Palace to ask, the matter will naturally be clear."

"What is there to ask? There are all witnesses and physical evidence in the case back then, and the criminal's confession. The evidence is as solid as a mountain. What else is there to ask? It is clear that someone deliberately caused trouble and used the case of the Yun family to eliminate differences. Mr. Jiang , you are so enthusiastic, did you let me tell you what is on my mind?"

Jiang Nianbai smiled lightly, "Master Liu, what you said is really unreasonable. The Tai/Ancestor has left a legacy that anyone who knocks on the board and hears the drum to sue the imperial court, as long as he rolls the nail board and atones for the serious crime of suing the government with the people, he will be fine." Be extra merciful and ask for a personal trial. Mr. Liu, you have been an official for quite some time, and you are an important member of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, so you can’t even remember Dongli’s laws!”

"You! I won't argue with you... This person's origin is unknown, how can he be allowed to enter the Golden Palace to face the saint? If he is an assassin, can Mr. Jiang afford the risk?"

Jiang Nianbai was arguing with others, and immediately an adult intervened, the court was divided into two factions, and the arguments continued endlessly.

Luo Ping pondered for a while, unable to make up his mind.Looking back at Liu Jun, Liu Jun secretly pointed in Luo Ming's direction.Luo Ping understood, and looked in Luo Ming's direction, only to see Luo Ming slightly nodded at him.

Now that Luo Ping had the backbone, he felt much more at ease, and immediately raised his hands and shouted: "My lords, don't be in a hurry. Since the Tai/Zu has left a legacy, let's call the drummer and ask him carefully."

Ding Wenjing still wanted to argue, but Luo Ping's face was already gloomy, he tossed his sleeves and shouted, "Shut up!"

This frightened Ding Wenjing.No matter how bold he was, he would never dare to offend the emperor in the Golden Palace.He didn't dare to speak any more at the moment, and looked straight at Prime Minister Liu Pei and Minister of the Ministry of Officials Jin Dayuan, hoping that the Prime Minister would help him out of trouble.

Liu Pei's face sank like water, and he kept silent.Although the events of the past were caused by him, he had never touched his hands from the beginning to the end, and it was not good to stand up and speak out suddenly at this time, but to help Ding Wenjing and others, so he had to wink at Zuodu Yushi behind him to let him play by ear.

Jin Dayuan, however, was completely petrified. The things about the Yun family were all done by him to please Liu Pei, so he did such unreasonable and immoral things. He has been living in fear for the past 11 years. The ghosts of the family are afraid of suffering in hell after death.Unexpectedly, before he died, the ghosts of debt collectors came.

The samurai in front of the hall quickly ran down the golden hall, and within the time of a cup of tea, a person was brought from His Royal Highness.

It was Qian Huan who came.

Qian Huan was dressed in filial piety, white from head to toe, his thin body was wrapped in a wide white cloth robe, hemp rope was tied around his waist, and white cloth strips were wrapped around his head. He had a pale face, He entered Yongtai Hall with a blank face.

Qian Huan came to Luo Ping's throne, knelt down and kowtowed, "Long live the grass people!"

Luo Ping looked at the people below, "Ping body!"

Qian Huan didn't dare to get up, she straightened up slightly, lowered her head, and kept looking at her feet.

"It was you who sounded the Dengwen drum?"

"Yes!"

"Are you guilty?"

"The grassroots are not guilty!"

Qian Huan raised her head sharply, and said loudly: "Caomin's family of more than [-] people was murdered by Jin Dayuan, Minister of the Ministry of Officials. He bribed the door of the Yun family and asked the door to go to the Ministry of Punishment to falsely accuse my father of hiding Xiangrui privately, with the intention of treason He also colluded with the officials of the Ministry of Punishment and severely punished my father, beating him into a trick. My father is nearly fifty years old, and he still has to suffer in prison. In the end, he was unjustly interrogated and beheaded."

Qian Huan turned her gaze, and stared at Jin Dayuan with sharp eyes, "It's him!"

Raising his hand and pointing, Qian Huan said sharply: "It is he who colluded with Ding Wenjing, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishments, and bribed the bandits to kill more than three hundred members of my family!"

"Long live!"

Qian Huan kowtowed and cried, "They are the most heinous criminals! Cao Min cleared up his father's grievances and sought justice for my Yun family's more than [-] people. What crime is there?"
