The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 1369 Extra Story (5): Xue's Rehabilitation [-]
"Boom, boom, boom!" There was a dull drum sound, and the people around were all startled.

"This, this is someone who wants to sue for impeachment!" A commoner looked over, he wanted to see who had the guts to sue for impeachment.

"Oh! Why is it a young girl?" A woman exclaimed immediately.

"Ouch! Girl, this is not something you can play with, put it down quickly!" There was also that enthusiastic woman who planned to step forward to pull Xue Shuyao.She thought the girl was young and didn't understand that this was beating the drum to express her grievances.

Xue Shuyao turned a deaf ear to these, and she beat the drum with great effort, exhausting her whole body's strength every time.

"Xue Shuyao, the daughter of the Xue family, came to beat the drums to express her grievances, begging the emperor and the court to return my Xue family's innocence!"

"Oh! I really came here to beat the drums and complain." The woman who was going forward to fight back hurriedly retreated. This is a court order, and she dare not have anything to do with this girl.

"This girl is so courageous! She really dares to sue!" Immediately, there was a lot of discussion around, this is not something ordinary people can bear, let alone a girl's family.

"Who are you? Do you know this is beating drums to appeal for grievances?" A pair of guards came over and shouted loudly.

"The Minnv is the daughter of the Xue family, this is the pleading of the Minnv!" Xue Shuyao handed over the pleading paper in her hand, at this moment her heart was fully supported by a wave of belief, and she didn't even feel afraid when facing the cold-faced guards.

"Do you know that once the imperial court is filed, you will be whipped fifty times?" Seeing that it was a young and beautiful girl, the guard couldn't bear it after all. He was afraid that she would not understand the law, so he explained the matter to her first.

"Minnv knows, please pass me the pleading paper for Minnv!" Xue Shuyao nodded, she had made up her mind.

Seeing his firm attitude, the guard had no choice but to swallow the words that came to his lips.He wanted to say that when the people sued the officials, they would be flogged fifty times first, and then there would be punishments.However, the other party was indifferent, and he couldn't say much.

"Give this pleading paper to the Secretary of the General Administration!" The guard handed the pleading paper to the person behind him, turned around and said to Xue Shuyao, "Just wait!"

After receiving the pleading paper, Chang Xuezhou, Secretary of the General Administration, opened it in surprise, and was so frightened that he almost threw the pleading paper out.

"Here, who handed over this pleading paper?" Chang Xuezhou had just been promoted to Zuo Tongzheng, and he didn't expect to encounter such a big incident when he took office.There are as many as seventeen officials accused of this, many of whom are high-ranking officials.

Even one of them turned out to be the teacher of the current Prince Regent, isn't this courting death?
"It is said to be the daughter of the Xue family, and she is waiting outside the palace at the moment."

"Quick, stop people quickly, I'm going to the Ministry of Punishment!" He is only a fourth-rank official, and he can't even see the regent on weekdays, let alone the emperor.

According to common sense, this matter should first be interrogated by the Secretary of the General Administration, and then handed over to the Ministry of Punishment.But he can't control so much now, so let's hand it over to the Ministry of Punishment first!

The most urgent task is to pass it to the regent through the Ministry of Punishment first.Be good in front of the regent and those ministers first, and worry about having no future in the future?
Thinking of this, he immediately ordered, "Tie him up and lock him up first!"

"My lord! Someone came from Dali Temple, and he said that the pleadings have been accepted today and will be handed over to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for interrogation!" A councilor hurried over and reported to Chang Xuezhou.

Chang Xuezhou was taken aback when he heard the words, and then he realized that it seemed that the regent knew about it a long time ago.

"Go and keep an eye on Yang Shiqi, that pleading paper must have disappeared for no apparent reason." Gu Chengyu said to a guard of Dali Temple.

Yang Shiqi was involved in this, and he was afraid that the other party would be ignorant of the pleadings.

"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Criminal Justice has handed over a pleading, stating that it is the orphan of the Xue family who wants to reverse the case for the Xue family!" The Minister of the Ministry of Criminal Justice entered the Wenhua Hall, and saw that Gu Chengyu was reviewing the memorial for the emperor, while the emperor was listening to the officials of the Imperial Academy explaining his homework. Can't help the eyes flash.

Gu Chengyu actually sent someone to interfere in this matter, but Liang Zhirui was also involved in it, isn't he worried at all?
"Mr. Xue?" The little emperor was a little puzzled. This happened before the Three Dynasties, and he had never heard of it.

Gu Chengyu put down the vermilion pen in his hand, glanced at Yang Shiqi, and explained to the emperor: "Reporting to the emperor, the case of Xue's extermination happened in..."

"So, that person is the orphan of the Xue family? But hasn't the family of the Xue family been exterminated? Where did he come from? The little emperor frowned. If this person's identity is true, then he is the court's son." Offender.

"Exactly! This person is a prisoner of the imperial court! Back then, she escaped by chance and dared to sue? Please the emperor bring this person to justice!" Yang Shiqi immediately nodded in agreement when he heard the words.

He was a little flustered at the moment, if Xue's orphan wanted to overturn the case, then the events of that year would definitely be revealed.He also participated in what happened back then.

"Your Majesty, since she has come to your door, it is of course necessary to arrest her. But let's see what the so-called criminal evidence is in her hand. If Mrs. Xue is really wronged, after all, she will be a hundred years old, and she will be loyal to the court."

The little emperor couldn't make up his mind, because too many officials were involved, not to mention the emperor's grandfather, Emperor Huiming.If he accepts it, it will definitely affect the reputation of the emperor's grandfather.

"Your Majesty, this pleadings lists many officials who have colluded with Daxing. If this matter is not investigated first, the consequences will be disastrous."

Xue Shuyao waited outside for quite a while, when she became more and more anxious, a guard stepped forward and arrested her, "Follow us to the Ministry of Punishment!"

Xue Shuyao finally became apprehensive, saying that she was not afraid, how could it be possible?
When they arrived at the lobby of the Ministry of Punishment, Xue Shuyao was held down by the guards and knelt on the ground.When she looked up, she found that there were several officials sitting above, and Gu Chengyu was also among them.

When she saw Gu Chengyu, her impetuous heart finally settled down.

"Who is in the hall?" Zhou Wei, the right servant of the Ministry of Punishment, slapped the gavel and shouted downwards.

"The daughter of the people is the daughter of the Xue family. Today I am beating the drums to appeal for grievances. I want to sue the current court magistrate Liang Zhirui and the minister of punishment Yang Shiqi for slandering my Xue family back then. I also ask the officials to return Xue's innocence!"

After Xue Shuyao kowtowed three times, she clenched her hands tightly into fists, remembering the criminal evidence in her arms.

"You are the daughter of a criminal minister, but a criminal of the imperial court. The emperor's grace is so great that you have the opportunity to plead your case. If you sue the official, you will be flogged fifty times. The crime will be punished. You have sued many officials. If you are not true, not only will you be whipped a hundred times, but you will also be sent to the army. Come and execute!"

Xue Shuyao trembled, and let the guards put her on the stool. Before she could get ready, the whip came off.

She suddenly felt a burning pain in her back, which made her almost scream out.She gritted her teeth tightly, and the second whip came down quickly, and she couldn't help but look up at Gu Chengyu.

I saw Gu Chengyu's expressionless face and deep eyes, unable to see what was in his heart.

In fact, Gu Chengyu felt uncomfortable, and he secretly cursed that this punishment was too inhuman.However, this is the law, he can only pick up the file on the table and look through it to divert his attention. .

He has already been treated, and although it hurts a little, it will not hurt his muscles and bones.After all, with so many people watching, it's not good to be too fake.

Xue Shuyao turned her gaze back. She silently endured the pain in her back, only to find it difficult to breathe.

I don't know how long it took, but when she was put down from the bench, she was already limp and turned into mud, after all, she was a body of flesh and blood.

"Do you want to continue?" Gu Chengyu asked softly.

"The daughter of the guilty minister wants to rehabilitate Xue." Blood overflowed from Xue Shuyao's mouth. Although her mind began to blur, she still heard Gu Chengyu's voice.So cold, so ruthless.

"Go to the second punishment, roll the nail board!" Zhou Wei, the right servant of the Ministry of punishment, was also impressed by the fierceness of this woman. Even men rarely survived the fifty lashes.

However, they have long been accustomed to these things, so they don't have much emotion in their hearts.

"Take it off!"

Xue Shuyao suddenly felt that someone was stripping off her outer garment, she immediately held it firmly, unwilling to let go.

"Take off the coat and put on the nail board!"
