The days when I ransacked the house in Jinyiwei

Chapter 312 Liu Daxia’s Ending
Morning the next day.

Jiao Fang, the Second Assistant to the Cabinet, first launched an attack on Liu Daxia: "Report to the Emperor. Cen Meng, the second son of Cen Pu, the former chieftain of Tianzhou, and his wife risked their lives and went to Beijing to sue the current chieftain Cen Xiao for killing his father and seizing the throne in the 12th year of Hongzhi!"

As soon as this remark came out, the court was in an uproar.

The Ming Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety.Unfilial piety is a heinous crime.Not to mention patricide?
Not only in the Ming Dynasty, killing one's own father was also a heinous crime regardless of the dynasty or generation.

The civil servants of the Ming Dynasty have always been sworn in with crime!
The court immediately exploded: "If this matter is true, Cen Xiao should be executed in a hurry!"

"Yes. If it is true, the imperial court should raise troops to attack Cen Xiao!"

"It's simply sensational! For the sake of power and position, he even killed his own father!"

"That's not right. It was six or seven years ago. Why didn't the Ministry of War report it?"

Liu Jin stood up at the right time and said: "Your Majesty. Liu Daxia, the Minister of War, actually accepted a box of jewelry as a bribe from Cen Xiao in the 12th year of Hongzhi. He concealed the parricide for Cen Xiao."

"The old slave has arrested Liu Daxia for interrogation. He confessed to accepting bribes and concealing reports."

"This old slave respectfully invites the emperor to interrogate Liu Daxia."

Chang Feng stood up and said: "Your Majesty. It is against the rules to arrest the current Xia official without any purpose!"

Liu Jin said, "Your Majesty, when the Inner Factory was first established, it was the duty of the Inner Factory to detect lawlessness among officials. Xia Guan of the Ministry of War was also among the officials."

Emperor Zhengde said: "Let's do this. According to what Liu Jin said, I will be the chief judge to interrogate Liu Daxia. If it is true that Liu Daxia took bribes and concealed the report, the internal factory will not be held accountable."

"If Liu Daxia is wronged, I will punish him severely from top to bottom in the factory."

"As for the jurors, I will choose three people. One is Liu Jin, one is Chang Feng, and one is Zuodu Censor Tu Fu."

Tu Yu was one of the Qingliu leaders in the court and had always had a reputation for fairness.

Emperor Zhengde asked him to serve on the jury in order to make him a witness.

At noon that day, the North Flower Hall of the Leopard Room became the lobby where the case was heard.

Emperor Zhengde sat on the dragon throne.Liu Jin, Chang Feng and Tu Yu were sitting at the bottom.

A group of Han generals in Jinyiwei acted as yamen servants standing in the hall, standing on both sides with pestles and big sticks.

Emperor Zhengde loved role-playing.

He picked up the gavel and slapped it with a graceful "pop"!Then he shouted: "Shengtang!"

All the Han generals sang in unison: "Mighty."

Emperor Zhengde said: "Bring the plaintiff Cen Meng and Mrs. Wa Shi."

Cen Meng and Mrs. Wa's family went to the lobby.

Cen Meng can only speak a few words of Chinese.The complaint was handled by Mrs. Wa's wife.

Mrs. Wa was filled with righteous indignation and told the story of Cen Xiao's parricide to Emperor Zhengde.

After hearing this, Emperor Zhengde said: "Since this is a trial, I can't just listen to your side of the story. Do you think there are any witnesses to Cen Xiao's parricide?"

Mrs. Wa's wife asked, "Your Majesty, aren't my husband and I witnesses enough?"

Emperor Zhengde turned on the Qingtian Grand Master mode: "There are rules for Ming Dynasty officials to investigate cases, and the plaintiff cannot be a witness."

Liu Jin interjected: "Your Majesty, there is a significant witness for Cen Xiao's parricide."

Emperor Zhengde asked: "Oh? Who?"

Liu Jin replied: "Liu Daxia."

Tu Yu raised an objection: "That's not right. According to you, Liu Laobutang is willing to testify for Cen Xiao's parricide? If he testifies, it will be equivalent to confirming his own crime of accepting bribes and concealing the report!"

Liu Jin smiled and said: "This is the valuable thing about Liu Daxia! Hongzhi is not called the Three Gentlemen for nothing! He is indeed a gentleman."

Emperor Zhengde said: "Lead the Minister of War, Liu Daxia."

Chang Feng was previously worried that the inner factory would torture Liu Daxia.

Unexpectedly, Liu Daxia came to the court with neat official robes, steady steps and rosy complexion.It doesn't look like he has been tortured at all.

Chang Feng looked down upon Liu Jin too much.

Since Liu Daxia himself admitted to accepting bribes and concealing reports, why should he be sentenced to death and suspected of "extorting confessions through torture and subduing others"?Liu Jincai is not that stupid.

Staying in the inner factory for one night, Liu Jin ordered his eunuchs to serve Liu Daxia.Even Liu Daxia's dinner and breakfast were cooked by Liu Jin's famous chef who was sent by his family to the prison.

Liu Daxia paid homage to Emperor Zhengde.

Emperor Zhengde respected Liu Daxia very much, a distinguished veteran who had governed the country, fought in wars, served in frontiers, and managed troops.

Emperor Zhengde said: "Give Liu Qing a seat."

Chang Feng violated etiquette and spoke first to hint at Liu Daxia: "Lao Butang. Last night you were imprisoned in Jinyiwei Prison by the inner factory. Did the people in the prison sentence you to force you to admit to accepting bribes and concealing reports?"

Liu Jin's expression changed: "Your Majesty, Chang Feng is trying to persuade the guilty officer to retract his confession in front of you."

Chang Feng's fourth level of quality: "I'm not, I don't have it, don't talk nonsense. How can Eunuch Liu accuse someone of their innocence out of thin air?"

Emperor Zhengde waved his hand to interrupt the quarrel between the two, and then looked at Liu Daxia: "Liu Qing, I ask you, is it true that you took bribes and concealed the report?"

Liu Daxia replied: "It's true."

Liu Jin interjected from the side: "Your Majesty, you see, just as the old slave said, Liu Daxia is a gentleman and has confessed to the illegal things he committed in the past."

Emperor Zhengde asked Liu Daxia: "Why do you do this?"

Liu Daxia replied: "Your Majesty. I am doing this for the sake of the stability of Guangxi."

"It doesn't matter whether the chieftain of the frontier is a normal heir or a patricide. The important thing is that the chieftain must be loyal to the Ming Dynasty!"

"I concluded at that time that although Cen Xiao committed patricide, he was very smart and would not go against the powerful Ming army."

"Having been a chieftain for seven years, was there any rebellion in Tianzhou? Was there any barbaric rebellion? None. This proves that my judgment at the time was correct."

"If I had reported the murder of my father and heir to the throne at that time, the imperial court would have sent a large number of troops to attack Cen Xiao and trigger a rebellion."

"In Guangxi, one chieftain has been rebelling for many years, and ten chieftains have followed suit. By then, the ground in Guangxi will be in chaos."

"The imperial court will send countless troops and spend countless money and food to suppress the rebellion."

Liu Daxia's words made Emperor Zhengde think deeply.

Emperor Zhengde secretly thought: If it were me who had dealt with Cen Yi's father-killing incident, I would have chosen to settle the matter.

What is the injustice of Cen Pu and Cen Meng compared to the stability of Guangxi as a whole?

Although he knew that Liu Daxia was an old man who wanted to seek the country, Emperor Zhengde still wanted to punish him.

If you want to take back the military power of the frontier and garrison armies in the world, you must remove the stumbling block of Liu Daxia!

Emperor Zhengde said: "Liu Qing, although you did this for the stability of Guangxi, it violated the court's laws."

Liu Daxia did not deny it: "Go back to the emperor. The law is the law, regardless of whether the law is lovable or not."

"I am willing to accept all punishment."

"There is another matter that I would like to explain. Those who purify themselves will purify themselves. The box of jewelry sent to me by Cen Xiao was sent to the inner transport warehouse by my tribute. There is a detailed tribute note from the inner transport warehouse as evidence."

"The detailed tribute bill is in the study of the minister's house. The emperor can send someone to get it to verify its authenticity."

Emperor Zhengde said: "There is no need to take it. I know Liu Qing's character. Since you admitted to taking bribes and concealing reports, take Liu Qing back to the imperial prison first so that he can serve you well. If he is missing during the imperial prison, I'm asking you for a single hair."

Two Han generals took Liu Daxia down.

Next, we will discuss the punishment of Liu Daxia.

Liu Jin hoped to torture Liu Daxia to death completely, physically.

Liu Jin said: "Your Majesty, Liu Daxia, as a Xia official in the Ministry of War, colluded with the border chieftains to deceive the emperor. This is a real conspiracy and an attempt to rebel."

"According to law, Lingchi should be sentenced to death! But please remember that Liu Daxia is a veteran of the Four Dynasties and has made great achievements. The old slave suggests that Liu Daxia be given Bai Ling to commit suicide!"

Chang Feng said: "When did Liu Daxia intend to rebel?! If he wants to rebel, the more chaotic the world, the better for him. He should send troops to attack Tianzhou Cen Xiao and provoke a large-scale rebellion in Guangxi!"

Liu Jin said: "In short, Liu Daxia must be killed. If Liu Daxia is not killed, the government will not be able to stand upright. How will the world judge you? How can a Xia official of the Ministry of War who protects a man who kills his father survive in the world safely?"

Chang Feng and Liu Jin were tit for tat.

At this moment, Zuodu Yushi Tujie spoke up and expressed his opinion.

Tu Yu said: "Your Majesty, Liu Daxia's crime must not go unpunished. But he must not be killed! His purpose of doing this was for the imperial court, but his method was against the law."

Liu Jin was a little anxious: "Even if we don't kill him, at least we must remove him from his official position and send him to guard the border!"

Chang Feng was about to refute, but he didn't expect that Emperor Zhengde immediately made the final decision: "Okay, I will remove Liu Daxia from his official position and demote him to a garrison soldier to guard the border in Suzhou!"

"In addition, the governor of Guangxi was ordered to send [-] elephant taming guards to escort Cen Meng and his wife back to Tianzhou and regain the position of chieftain."

"If Cen Xiao dares to resist, he will be wiped out!" "That's it!"

In this way, Liu Daxia, one of the three gentlemen of Hongzhi and a veteran of four dynasties, lost his official position and was sent to the northwest at the age of 73.

Cen Meng and Mrs. Wa's wife shouted: "Your Majesty is wise! Long live long live!"

Chang Feng thought of interceding for Liu Daxia: "Your Majesty."

Emperor Zhengde waved his hand: "Stop talking. I have made up my mind! In addition, if Liu Daxia died of confusion while guarding the border, Liu Jin, please stop being the governor of your inner factory!"

Emperor Zhengde really slapped Liu Jin: I dismissed Liu Daxia's official position and sent him to garrison in the northwest.If you are still not satisfied, insist on killing him.Don't blame me for being merciless to you.

Liu Jin quickly said: "Yes, I obey the order. I will go to Xinsuzhou to guard the eunuchs and let them take good care of Liu Daxia."

Emperor Zhengde looked at Mrs. Wa's wife again.

Mrs. Va's face has the charm of a foreign woman, not to mention that she also has long legs that are bent forward and backward, and she walks like "duang, duang, duang".

Emperor Zhengde was attracted to her.

As a man, let alone the wild flowers on the roadside, even if you see the dog poop on the roadside, you still want to lick it for a taste.

Emperor Zhengde said: "Ah, Mrs. Wa's wife escorted her husband to Beijing this time. During the bloody battle with the killer sent by Cen Xiao, it was really thrilling."

"I like to hear twists and turns and thrilling stories the most! I will leave Mrs. Vacheron to have dinner in the Leopard Room tonight."

"Okay, back out!"

Emperor Zhengde was shocked, and the Liu Daxia case in the first year of Zhengde was settled.

Chang Feng led Cen Meng back to his house.

Liu Xiaoyan asked: "Where is my sister Wa's family?"

Chang Feng did not answer, but said to Cen Meng: "You go back to your room to clean up, and prepare to go south to Guangxi and take up the post of chieftain."

After Cen Meng left, Chang Feng lowered his voice and said to Liu Xiaoyan: "I'm afraid the emperor is attracted to Mrs. Wa's wife. Let her have dinner in the Leopard Room, and she may have to spend the night."

Liu Xiaoyan was furious: "This kid Zhu Houzhao, how can he not learn from others but learn from Meng De? What kind of yellow girl is there in the Leopard Room? He just fell in love with someone else's wife!"

Chang Feng smiled bitterly: "Alas"

Let's talk about the night in the Leopard Room.

Emperor Zhengde hosted a banquet in honor of Mrs. Wa's wife.After three rounds of wine and five tastes of food, Emperor Zhengde was already confused and infatuated.

He ordered Gu Dayong: "You all retreat."

Gu Dayong led the palace ladies and eunuchs out of the dormitory and closed the door of the dormitory.Then he covered his mouth and chuckled.

In the dormitory, Emperor Zhengde left his throne and sat next to Mrs. Wa. He put his arm around Mrs. Wa's shoulders and said, "Good sister, hehe."

Mrs. Wa Shi used a little force and broke free from Emperor Zhengde's hand.

Then she stood up, took two steps back, and said straight to the point: "Your Majesty, do you want to sleep with me?"

Emperor Zhengde said with a salivating smile: "That's right! My dear sister, please give me a night's stay."

Do you think that the next scene will be a drama in which a chaste and martyr girl would rather die than obey, and the unruly king forces the martyr girl to death?
Not also!

I saw Mrs. Wa's smile: "There are many men who want to sleep with my sister. You are the only one."

"Don't talk about staying with you for one night, even three or five nights will be fine."

"But I have rules. Only men who can beat me are worthy of sleeping with me!"

A woman from a prosperous family like Mrs. Va is bold and bold by nature.

When she said this, the nonchalant Emperor Zhengde suddenly became interested: "Really?"

Mrs. Wa's answer: "Really! As long as you can beat me, you can sleep as long as you want! You can sleep however you want! I'm at the mercy of the emperor!"

Emperor Zhengde was overjoyed!
He spent a year learning weapons, fists and kicks from Jiang Bin and other border warriors in the Leopard Fang.

However, Jiang Bin and others only dared to teach him moves, but did not dare to fight with him.

Mrs. Vacheron said so.Emperor Zhengde's desire for sex was secondary, the important thing was - hey, finally someone dared to compete with me!
Emperor Zhengde was very confident in his martial arts.Our Xiao Zhu’s martial arts training this year was not in vain!
Emperor Zhengde asked: "Want to compete with fists and kicks or weapons? My dear sister, you choose!"

Mrs. Wa said: "How can you use weapons when fighting against the emperor? Swords have no eyes. I think it's just a fight with fists and kicks!"

Emperor Zhengde walked to the wide space in the center of the dormitory and raised his hands towards Mrs. Wa's wife: "Good sister, please take action!"

As soon as Emperor Zhengde finished speaking, Mrs. Wa's left kick kicked Emperor Zhengde in the stomach.

Emperor Zhengde felt pain and took a few steps back.

Mrs. Wa's right whip kicked Emperor Zhengde down.

When Emperor Zhengde fell to the ground, Mrs. Wa's left jab hit Emperor Zhengde in the face.

Emperor Zhengde was stunned.

Mrs. Wa's wife rode directly on Emperor Zhengde's dragon body.I originally wanted to hit him on the head with a small fist, but then I thought: After all, he is the emperor!Forget it, let’s get spanked!
So Mrs. Wa's big hand waved and slapped Emperor Zhengde's butt one after another.

While slapping Emperor Zhengde, she scolded: "There are so many young men who want to sleep with my sister! You don't have any real ability and you still want your sister to serve you?"

After being slapped for more than a dozen times, the somewhat timid Mrs. Wa suddenly realized that she was not beating a wild young boy from Guangxi, but the emperor of the day.

She stood up.

Emperor Zhengde was quite capable.A kite turned over and soared into the sky.

Mrs. Wa thought that Emperor Zhengde was going to be angry.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Zhengde actually clasped his fists with his hands and bowed deeply to her.

Emperor Zhengde's third consecutive quality: "Sister, you are so capable!"

"I'm so incompetent!"

"Please teach me your skills!"

This made Mrs. Wa's wife confused: "Your Majesty, do you mean you won't sleep with me?"

Emperor Zhengde looked serious: "From today on, I will treat my sister as my mother and respect her as my aunt!"

"My imperial aunt Liu Xiaoyan is my riding and shooting master. You will be my boxing and kicking master from now on!"

Mrs. Wa said: "Ah, good! In fact, the art of boxing and kicking does not require any pretense, just one word 'quick'!"

Emperor Zhengde said respectfully: "Female master, wait a minute. I will get a pen and paper to write down your teachings."

Emperor Zhengde looked like a cheap man.Not only did he not get angry after being beaten, he also recognized Mrs. Wa as his master.

That night, Emperor Zhengde simply summoned a group of leopard slaves in the leopard room martial arts hall.Zhenger Ba Jing worships Mrs. Va as his teacher
Chang Feng couldn't help but laugh when he learned about this from Mrs. Wa's wife. He laughed secretly in his heart: The emperor is really careless!

According to historical records, in the autumn of the first year of Zhengde, due to the fierce incident in Tianzhou, Liu Daxia, the Minister of War, dismissed his official position and sent troops to Suzhou to guard the border.

Liu Daxia wore civilian clothes and kowtowed through the Daming Gate before leaving.The spectators sighed and shed tears, while the fathers and common people carried baskets to offer food and drinks.The people burned incense to wish Liu Xiaguan alive.
When they arrived at the Suzhou garrison, all the generals were afraid of offending Liu Jin.Liu Daxia was not given food or clothing.Confucian students from the northwest walked three hundred miles to bring food and wine to Liu Daxia.

One day the garrison soldiers were performing drills.Liu Daxia joined the army carrying troops.Baihu said, "It doesn't have to be like this."

Liu Daxia said: "Garrison soldiers are also warriors. Warriors should practice every day."

Senior officials were demoted to garrison soldiers and were not allowed to have servants.But you can bring your children and grandchildren to fulfill your filial piety and take care of daily life.

Others asked Liu Daxia why he did not bring his descendants.

Liu Daxia said: "When I was an official, I did not seek benefits for my descendants. Now that I am being punished, how can I bear to ask them to come to the northwest with me and suffer?"

In the summer of the fifth year of Zhengde, Liu Jin was executed. Liu Daxia was pardoned and returned to his hometown. The imperial court granted him the opportunity to retain his official salary, but Liu Daxia refused.Teach your children and grandchildren to farm and make a living every day.Any surplus will be distributed to the old clan.

Descendants made prefabricated tombstones and epitaphs for him.Liu Daxia said, "Don't use your kind words to make me feel ashamed."

In May of the 11th year of Zhengde, Liu Daxia died without illness at the age of 81.Emperor Zhengde gave him the posthumous title of "Zhongxuan" as a posthumous gift to his Taibao.
The plaintiffs in Liu Daxia's case, Cen Meng and Mrs. Wa's wife, returned to Guangxi.With the help of the Ming army, he killed his eldest brother Cen Xiao and regained his position as chieftain.

Cen Meng's life was short-lived and he died before he was forty. At best, he was just an unknown little chieftain in southern Xinjiang.

Mrs. Wa's glory shines in the history books!Famous forever!
In the sixth year of Jiajing's reign, because her husband and son died one after another, Mrs. Wa's wife took over the affairs of the state personally, and Tianzhou became awe-inspiring.

In the seventh year of Jiajing, Jiaozhi invaded, and Jiaozhi elephant soldiers rampaged across the border of Guangxi.Mrs. Wa's wife led a strong army to defend her family and country, and defeated the enemy's elephant soldiers in Jiaozhi.

After this battle, Zhuang Bing changed his name to "Guangxi Wolf Soldier", which is well-known throughout the ages.

In the 33rd year of Jiajing's reign, following the emperor's edict, Mrs. Wa led six thousand Guangxi wolf soldiers and rushed to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to fight against the Japanese enemies. They fought bloody battles for several years.In every battle, he must take the lead, bravely take the lead, defeat the Japanese pirates, and repeatedly perform extraordinary feats.

People in the south of the Yangtze River say: "The Huawa family can kill Japanese people."He is respectfully called the "Stone Pillar Female General".

Zhang Jing and Hu Zongxian, the two governors of Zhejiang Province, successively requested the imperial court to designate Mrs. Wa as the "Second Grade Imperial Lady".

Oh, by the way, when Mrs. Wa's wife fought side by side against the Japanese pirates in the southeast, she had two close bosses and comrades-in-arms.The boss's name is Yu Dayou, his comrade's name is Qi Jiguang
That's another story.
