Liu Haojia signed his name on the file and said at the same time: "I didn't punish you severely just because of their face! Fifteen years of hard labor is already considered light! But don't worry, we won't send you to the coal mine. Go, there is too much work to do here in Tianjin, only after we finish the work here will we consider sending people to the coal mines!"
Xu Zengshou was completely desperate when he heard this. He shouted loudly: "You are Wuhou, you are not qualified to judge the case! If the court finds out about this, you will have to live in poverty!"
Liu Haojia said: "That dyehouse is not valuable, what is valuable is the shop! And that shop is in my fiefdom, so I naturally have this authority! Someone, take him down!"
After Liu Haojia gave his instructions, someone immediately came up to take them. Hearing his shouting was annoying, I blocked his mouth again before dragging him down.
When Xu Peijiang and his wife saw that the case was over and Xu Zengshou was dragged away, they kowtowed to Liu Haojia to express their gratitude. Liu Haojia ordered someone to take the couple back to their home. After watching them leave, he listened carefully to what was going on in the hall. He wanted to see how the people would react.
He listened carefully, and sure enough, many people in the crowd were praising him loudly, saying, "The Marquis is indeed Qingtianna!"
"It's easy to tell the truth from the lie, much better than the county magistrate!"
However, Liu Haojia clearly heard someone saying loudly: "Mr. Xu Ge is too busy with state affairs and has no psychology. This is why such a scum has appeared. It really brings shame to Mr. Xu Ge!"
Liu Haojia looked carefully and saw that some scholars were speaking loudly here, obviously trying to clear the Xu family's name. Many people also nodded loudly in agreement, saying that Mr. Xu Ge had made great contributions in governing the country, but only in his family. Out of trouble. This is not Mr. Xu Ge’s fault!
Hearing the common people echoing these scholars' statements, Liu Haojia's good mood suddenly disappeared! These common people don't know what's going on at all, they are just following what others say! And I'm afraid there are many scholars who just follow what others say and have not considered the truth of the matter at all!
In Liu Haojia's view, Xu Jie only did two things in his life, which was to constantly fight political battles with Yan Song, and finally defeated Yan Song completely! The second thing is to train his own good student Zhang Juzheng to take over for his own future. Nothing else has been accomplished!
Everyone says that Yan Song is a female cadre, but is Yan Song really a female cadre? not necessarily! Can you think about it carefully, what evil things did Yan Song’s family really do? I'm afraid not! But the father and son were completely portrayed as female ministers who brought disaster to the country and the people!
In fact, in the eyes of the world, the real crime of Yan Song and his son is nothing more than "fascination"! To put it bluntly, the emperor will do whatever he says! As for other crimes, they are just a way for the winner to make his opponent look bad!
Under the political conditions of the Ming Dynasty, it was the time of ideological enlightenment. Although the concept of "virtual monarch" had not been really proposed, there was already a vague idea! Coupled with the need for civil servants to suppress imperial power, the officials at that time believed that anyone who completely obeyed the emperor was a sycophant!
And what Yan Song did exactly was to completely listen to Emperor Jiajing's words! Emperor Jiajing used Yan Song as his helper and hid in the palace to control the court, and there was no problem at all!
It is said that Yan Song and his son were greedy for countless amounts of money and lived a life of luxury and leisure. However, according to records, when Yan Song's house was raided, only a total of more than 300,000 taels of property were found! And judging from the Chinese literati's method of completely ruining a person by defeating him, I am afraid that the more than 300,000 taels of silver is also an exaggeration!
Moreover, after Yan Shifan died, Yan Song returned to his hometown, and the people in his hometown did not criticize him in the slightest, but instead gave him a lot of help. Otherwise, how could Yan Song, an old man of several decades, have lived for several more years relying on the tributes on the cemetery?
Looking at Xu Jie in turn, when Yan Song was in power, he did not hesitate to marry his granddaughter to Yan Shifan as a concubine in order to avoid being liquidated! In the eyes of the world at the time, this was basically him begging for mercy from Yan Song's family! And after he defeated Yan Song, Xu Jie poisoned his granddaughter to death without hesitation!
At the same time, since he joined the cabinet, the Xu family's wealth has expanded rapidly! Especially after he became the first assistant, he made a fortune so quickly that it was staggering! In the end, the Xu family got a title called "Half Songjiang", which shows that his family was annexed at that time.
How much land there is!
The most interesting thing is that when Xu Jie died, he didn't dare to be buried in his hometown! The reason for this is worth thinking about!
In the minds of Chinese people, returning fallen leaves to their roots is a must! Especially a pavilion elder like Xu Jie should be buried in his hometown and do a lot of things! But why did he place his grave in another place?
Because there is an old saying in China that goes "rabbits don't eat the grass beside their nests"! The Xu family held more than half of Songjiang's land in their arms, and they harmed many villagers! It is estimated that if Xu Jie's grave was placed in his hometown, someone would probably dig it up in the middle of the night!
Especially after Zhang Juzheng became the first assistant, he has been promoting the matter of clearing his father's land! But when Qingzhang arrived at Songjiang, it basically came to a standstill! After all, it is easy to say that students copy the teacher's land!
However, as Zhang Juzheng's teacher, Xu Jie never gave him the slightest support. He never said that he would actively invite court officials to investigate, but just ignored him as if he didn't know. In this way, we can clearly see Xu Jie's attitude, which is that he doesn't want to touch a single bit of my land! So comparing the two, it’s really hard to say who is the upright official and who is the female minister!
Seeing Liu Haojia judge a case neatly and neatly, the people's interest became even higher! So the people who came after hearing the news almost surrounded the county government office on the third and third floors!
But in fact, the next few cases were solved extremely easily! Because the loopholes in this case of plunder and robbery are so big that it can lead to a horse-drawn carriage! Moreover, the perpetrators did not bother to hide at all, or in their opinion, what they did was powerless for the victims, and there was no need to cover it up!
And in the officialdom, this kind of thing happens endlessly. Anyway, everyone has blood on their hands. If you give each other face, no one will pursue it! Therefore, a few cross-examinations will lead to the correct conclusion! Especially when they saw that one of the housekeepers in Xu Ge's hometown had been taken down, they had no intention of resisting!
So when Liu Haojia asked, they honestly explained the cause and effect of the matter, and accepted the punishment! So the trial speed was surprisingly fast!
After several cases were adjudicated, the curiosity of the people was completely satisfied, so the people who dispersed began to vividly describe the scene at that time to those who had not come to the county government office. Liu Haojia's figure has been raised countless times! For a time, Liu Haojia's reputation as Qingtian continued to spread in Tianjin!
