Back to the Qin Dynasty as a prince

Chapter 4: The 4 parties' public trial is turbulent

Hurrying slowly, Fusu arrived at the lobby on time.This is the place where the trial is held. It is no different from the usual room, but it is much more spacious.Qin people don't like extravagance, and most of the yamen are simple and generous.

When Fusu sat down, he found that Hu Hai, who was watching the trial opposite him, was standing there.At this time, Hu Hai lost the arrogance of the past, and stood quietly on the side without saying a word, whispering something to the others.Seeing Fusu approaching, they first stepped forward to greet him, although the others did not understand why Hu Hai, who used to be arrogant in the past, was so obedient today, they followed suit without saying a word.

Fusu responded one by one, like a gentle gentleman, making everyone feel caring.Only the sharpness in Hu Hai's lowered eyes can see the means and determination of Fusu, a gentle gentleman!

Fusu sat down alone, and the whispered discussions around him started quietly again.

"I heard that Mr. Fusu beheaded a swordsman this time, and he was the chief instructor of Mr. Huhai?" A scholar-bureaucrat who was listening to the trial said quietly to the people next to him.

"It's not just that. Mr. Hu Hai's teaching entered the palace and offended him. Naturally, he was killed by him!" Another scholar-bureaucrat retorted, arrogantly speaking to his colleagues with the advantage of information.

"Oh? That's a new thing. Although Mr. Fusu is famous for his benevolence, it's a pity that he has a soft temper." The scholar-bureaucrat shook his head.It's a pity.

"If it is considered weak to kill someone like him in front of his own brother, I am afraid that General Meng will not dare to kill a chicken!" Meng Tian is the number one warrior in China, and this scholar-bureaucrat is obviously weak to Fusu disapproving of the statement.

The two discussed in low voices, but they didn't know that Hu Hai's face had turned dark again.It's just that they are not afraid. Although Hu Hai is deeply favored by the emperor, he couldn't do anything to them before he was the emperor of the empire.

As for Fusu, he was talking with Feng Jie in a low voice.

"My lord, you and I are not the protagonists today." The place where Feng Jie and Fusu were located was empty except for the guards, so they were not afraid that other people would hear any secrets.

"Oh? Why did Feng Yushi say that?" Fusu was puzzled. Could it be that the eldest son of the emperor and a deputy prime minister are not the protagonists?

"Hehe, although Your Majesty has annexed the world. But people's hearts are not ancient, but not everyone wants to unify the world. Those Confucian scholars who have broken their minds because of their studies are afraid that they will be sold out, but they will still be grateful and think of themselves!" Feng Jie said to the Confucian scholars. He has no good impression, and is even more disdainful of restoring the ancient system.

"Could it be that there is a conspiracy behind these Confucian scholars?" Fusu guessed a little bit in his heart, but he didn't know how far away from the truth.

"Huh, before the annexation of the world, all the schools of thought are clamoring. After you sing, I will go on stage and travel around the countries to show my strengths. Now the world is a bucket, well, a swarm of bees gathered in Xianyang. If it is said that only Confucianism is involved in this matter, I will be the first to not believe it!" Feng Jie shook his head, he could be regarded as a Legalist.It's just that this coat has gradually disappeared after ascending to the court.

"Meng Yi!" Two words came out of Fusu's mouth at last, Meng Yi and Meng Tian were both famous generals at the end of Qin Dynasty.The former had a prominent reputation in the court and advised the first emperor.He is the first-class confidant of the first emperor.The latter was in charge of the army in Henan, and his reputation in fighting against the Huns grew in the frontiers.And the Meng family are the generals of the Qin Kingdom for generations, they can be described as prominent.More importantly, they are also supporters of the Military Academy!

"Your Majesty is wise. Indeed, His Majesty has ordered General Meng to lead the imperial army to arrest the suspect." Feng Jie said without saying anything else.Holding a book with his head down, he has finished what he should say, and the rest depends on Fusu's comprehension.

Seeing this, Fusu sat up.I thought to myself.

The emperor obviously didn't put the breakthrough in the public trial. After all, what can be obtained in a public trial can be obtained in a private trial.Naturally, there is no need to do so.

From this point of view, it is obviously unreasonable.The First Emperor's talent is roughly self-evident.An eldest prince and a deputy prime minister, the censor doctor, the lineup is indeed strong enough, but if it is not a public trial, it will not have much impact.

right!What Fusu captured was the word "public"!

Doctor Yushi, one of the top three ministers in the world, is enough to attract the attention of the world, plus Fusu, the son of the first heir to the empire.The meaning couldn't be simpler, it is to let the two attract everyone's attention.And the most important punch was in Meng Yi's hand, leading the imperial army to make a surprise attack when everyone was unprepared.No matter how powerful these imperial enemies lurking in Xianyang are, it is enough!

However, Fusu left one last doubt.Just a simple Confucianism incident in history, how much is hidden in it.To ask Qin Shihuang to take the lead, a prince, two prime ministers, and one Shangqing to do it?

Suddenly, a drum sounded.All around quickly quieted down, Feng Jie was the presiding judge, and Fu Su sat beside him.

"The trial is open, the inmate!" Feng Jie slapped the gavel and shouted.

"Heirloom offender!"

Afterwards, a man with disheveled hair and prison clothes was brought over by two yamen servants.

"Who is in the hall, please state your name and place of origin." Feng Jie's words are complete nonsense. If it turns out that he doesn't even know the prisoner's name, then his ability will be questionable.

However, everyone present knew that these were necessary procedures, and there was no voice of doubt, thinking of other things.

"Student, Fan Cen. From Jimo, Shandong." Hearing this, Fusu felt happy, lonely?Then I thought it was Jimo, Shandong, and I was relieved.

"Are you guilty?"

"The students don't know what crime they committed. Fan came from Jimo, East China Sea, and traveled thousands of miles to study in the imperial capital, in order to sell what he had learned all his life to the emperor's family. The law of heaven is clear, and he was wronged and imprisoned!" Fan Cen went on talking, talking endlessly, He even said that tears flowed down the place where he was emotional.It really makes people cry when they hear it, and it makes people feel sad when they hear it.

However, Feng Jie, the presiding judge, actually listened with great interest in order to stop him.

After Fan Cen finished speaking, Feng Jie did not order anyone to execute the sentence.On the one hand, this is a public trial, which emphasizes legal fairness. If severe punishment is used, it is easy to be suspected of extorting a confession by torture.In addition, it was also Feng Jie who had confidence in himself.

"Heir certificate!"

Afterwards, a young man in Tsing Yi came in.Ordinary-oriented, still pretty.As soon as he entered the hall, he said: "Little man Qi Er, I have met the official."

He looks like a servant in a restaurant and inn, and his best skill is to observe words and expressions.The high-ranking officials on the field bowed down one by one, without falling behind.Obviously a very slick character.

Although everyone didn't care about this little servant, they felt a little more fond of him.

Feng Jie asked Fan Cen, "Do you know this boy?"

Fan Cen turned his head and took a look, without changing his expression, he said, "Students are too busy with their homework, so they didn't know."

Feng Jie smiled and turned to the servant: "Then do you recognize this man from Tangxia?"

Qi Er replied respectfully: "The villain knows it."

Feng Jie: "Then who is he? Why do you recognize him?"

Qi Er: "Because the villain's ancestor is also from Qi, so he is very attentive to this gentleman who came from Qi."

Feng Jie helped his chin with his long beard and asked, "Seven days ago, do you remember. Who did this person go out with?"

Qi Er replied: "It's the shopkeeper of Yuebin Inn, Qiu Xin! The two of them often slander my emperor."

At this moment, Fan Cen's face finally changed: "Nonsense! This is clearly slander. Shopkeeper Qiu has never met me at all, how could he slander His Majesty with me!"

After finishing speaking in one breath, Fan Cen's face suddenly turned pale.

Feng Jie slapped the gavel, and Fan Cen was startled: "Since you have never met Qiu Xin, why do you know about that Qiu Xin!"

Fan Cen's face was pale and bloodless, but he didn't say anything more.

Feng Jie waved his hand, and Qi Er, the servant, retreated respectfully, his slick look disappeared.Seeing this, Fusu felt a little clear in his heart.Without saying a word, he glanced at Hu Hai again, and found that Hu Hai had turned back to his true self of the second generation ancestor, chatting with this aristocratic family about the top card of the brothel, and talking with that official family's witty words mixed with meat and vegetables.

Feng Jie continued to pass on: "Successor offender, Qiu Xin!"

Not long after, a fat middle-aged man with a fair complexion and a smile on his face entered the lobby.In the face of many high-ranking officials in the court, there is no fear on his face.

A salute.

Fusu was a little surprised. In his impression, the status of merchants in feudal dynasties was generally low, although the collusion between officials and businessmen made those big merchants rich.However, the social status has never been improved. Except for the Song Dynasty in the Han, Tang and Ming Dynasties, the descendants were not allowed to be officials, and they were not allowed to be officials.In a feudal society, it is very normal for county magistrates to destroy families and exterminate families.

Fusu is not clear, since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.The status of merchants is very high. Because of the war, merchants have been given opportunities for development. Due to various reasons, various countries treat merchants quite favorably, thus collecting taxes. They are all big heads.Qin Guoxiang, Lu Buwei, the representative of Zajia, is a very successful businessman.It's just that with Lu Buwei's death, the miscellaneous family has gradually declined, and few outstanding figures have appeared.

Feng Jie stared at Qiu Xin without saying a word.Feng Jie didn't speak, and the others didn't dare to speak.For a while, the scene suddenly fell silent.All eyes were on Qiu Xin.

Although Qiu Xin is the innkeeper of the largest inn in Xianyang, he is usually quite a person in Xianyang.But being stared at by Feng Jie Fusu, two top figures in the world, coupled with many doubts, cold eyes, or greedy eyes.Soon he was defeated, cold sweat flowed down his back instantly.

At this time, Feng Jie saw that his aura had been completely defeated, and the business elite looked away proudly.Take out a scroll of bamboo slips: "Qiu Xin, 33 years old and August 15th. Born in Haishi, Danyang County, Wujun County, Baqiu Village. He entered Mongolia at the age of six and dropped out of school at the age of nine. You went to Shangqiu when you were [-] to [-] years old. , entered the school of a famous sorcerer, and learned the way of alchemy. But there is actually a man with the same name, surname, and age as you in Wujun who works at home and serves your parents. As far as I know, this person is your father. The result of a spring breeze many years ago." Feng Jie said
