At night, in the Chui Gong Hall, Emperor Liu was leaning against a book in a casual posture, holding a memorial that had been approved and forwarded by the Political Affairs Hall and reading it. His eyes were really bad, so he leaned very close to it, almost touching his face.
There is also a pair of glasses placed next to the eucalyptus, with colored glass as the mirror and jade as the frame, which is high-end and luxurious. This was developed by the craftsmen of the Shaofu in accordance with Emperor Liu's requirements. After trying dozens of them, they finally got one that was barely usable, but the experience was not that good and the eyes couldn't stand it.
At this time, Emperor Liu's expression was not very good-looking, and he was slightly gloomy, just because of the content of the memorial in his hand. This is a final report on a case, which was submitted to the imperial court and required Emperor Liu's personal intervention. There are two reasons. One is that the case is serious, and the other is that the person involved has a special status. The perpetrator is Chang Ning Bo Haijin.
Hai Jin was originally from the Xi tribe, and he had been brave and good at fighting since he was a child. When Yelu Deguang went south to destroy the Jin Dynasty, he was a soldier of the Xi tribe who accompanied the army. Later, the Liao Kingdom lost power, the Central Plains rebelled, troops were raised in Hedong, and the Khitan retreated to the north. Hai Jin could not escape. He roared in the battle of Luan City and became a prisoner of Emperor Liu. Hai Jin was twenty years old at that time.
Because he was a Xi person, Hai Jin lived a hard life as a prisoner and suffered a lot of humiliation. Also because he was a Xi person, Hai Jin was able to join the Han army later.
During the counter-insurgency war against Du Chongwei, he took the initiative to join the "death squad" and attacked Yuancheng. Although the siege failed and he was seriously injured, his life was saved after treatment.
And because of his heroic performance in killing and wounding five guards during the siege, he was officially recruited into the Forbidden Army during the aftermath reward hosted by Emperor Liu.
From then on, Hai Jin started as an ordinary forbidden soldier and worked hard to fight. He basically participated in a series of wars in the early Han Dynasty and performed well. He fought with blood in every battle and was not afraid of death. "Xi'er "The reputation of bravery gradually spread among the army.
By the time the world was unified, Hai Jin had accumulated achievements and reached the rank of deputy commander of the Hujie Army. He was promoted to the second-class commander Ning Bo. Although he could not be compared with those top military dignitaries, he was definitely the backbone general of the Han army.
His origin as a Xi man made him one of the few foreign nobles in the Han Dynasty. During the Kaibao Northern Expedition, Hai Jin was naturally ordered to lead the army to join the war and participated in the bloody battle of Jinzhou. Later, he was transferred from the Liaodong battlefield to the west to fight with Wang Yanchao. Together they attacked the Xi tribe in Yanshan North Road. In the process, his identity as a Xi tribe played a big role in recruiting many Xi tribes.
After the success of the Northern Expedition, he was promoted to the first rank, and the imperial court established the Yanshan North Road. Hai Jin also stayed there as the deputy commander of the Yanshan Road, suppressing rebellion and suppressing various tribes. Later, he was successfully reorganized and guarded the Yanshan North Road for the court, guarding the borders of the domain for more than ten years. Year.
Of course, on the surface, Shanghai Jin was relegated to the second line because of his old age, but in fact, it was because he was arrogant in taking credit, rough in style, irritable and prone to killing. He had been in the border areas for a long time, and he became increasingly arrogant and violent when he was in power.
First, he was assigned to take charge of the team training of Yanshan North Road. Within a year, he was transferred directly. After another two years, he was completely retired, with all powers removed, and was forced to retire in Qingzhou, Henan.
You know, Hai Jin is only sixty years old now, which can be regarded as a retirement in his prime. During the past few years of retirement, his mood is naturally bad, and he even has frequent resentments and anger. His temperament has become more perverse, and his behavior has become more and more erratic. extreme.
During last year's autumn harvest, Qingzhou's harvest was generally poor due to an insect infestation. Haijin's family had more than a dozen households of tenant farmers. In order to pay the tenant rent, they mixed old grain with new wheat and turned it in.
Due to the poor sales, Hai Jin was also angry because of the tax reform and land clearing that was being promoted in Henan Province at that time. After learning about the situation, he was furious and arrested all the more than a dozen households of tenants for torture.
Hai Jin believed that these tenants were using old grain to pay the new rent, which was a fraud and contempt for his uncle Chang Ning. He also felt that these untouchables were taking advantage of the land reform in Henan Province and did not take Hai Jin seriously.
Faced with this kind of questioning, the innocent tenants naturally refused to admit it and just begged for mercy. However, Hai Jin refused to listen. He was so angry that he ordered his slaves to beat the dozen tenants to death... ..
After the murder, Hai Jin felt a little more comfortable, and he didn't take it as a big deal. The tenants were just untouchables who pointed at the uncle's house to eat, so they didn't take it seriously. After sending the body back, I thought I was generous and gave each family ten guan of money as sealing money.
However, what Hai Jin didn't expect was that one of the two families was dissatisfied and carried the coffin to the county government office to complain. After understanding the cause, the Linqu County Magistrate did not dare to neglect, concealed the news, and immediately reported it to Changning Bofu.
Knowing that the head of Qian Guizhou was ignorant of current affairs and dared to sue the government, Hai Jin was completely angry. That night, he led people to kill more than ten people from the two families. The sign of running water.
As soon as this incident came out, Linqu was silent. However, the fact that the Changning Mansion was so unscrupulous and unscrupulous naturally aroused the indignation of some people. Although today's Han world is also full of oppression and inequality, it still maintains a basic clarity. No matter how dirty there is in the dark, some moral limits are on the table. Hai Jin's brutal actions completely broke through the bottom line.
There is no such thing as something that can be completely concealed. Such a bad behavior, so many people died, and the follow-up treatment of Changning Bofu was so rough. He was quickly reported to the Taoist officials by the Linqu County government officials and did not go to Henan. Following the line of inspection, he reported directly to Zheng Qi, the deputy chief envoy.
Zheng Qi, who can be regarded as equal to Pan You, is naturally a ruthless character. After learning about the incident, he did not announce it to the Taoist State Council, but sent people to secretly visit Linqu. After the incident was confirmed, he immediately informed the Chief Envoy Li Yu and then went to the State Council. The arrest order was issued.
When faced with the arrest of officials from the Dao Si, Hai Jin did not react at all. The authority of the Henan Dao Si was not something that a mere head Ning Bo could contend with. However, after realizing the seriousness of the matter, Hai Jin's choice was also surprising. He actually resisted arrest.
Not only did he resist arrest, but he also organized all the servants and servants in his manor, gathered 200 people, and defended the fort. The difficulty of arresting the Taoist officials is secondary. The important thing is that the nature of the matter has escalated, from "ordinary" careless management of human lives, to gathering a crowd to rebel. In the end, a thousand soldiers and horses were mobilized from Qingzhou to round up and force Haijin to surrender. .
In the middle of last year's winter, Hai Jin was escorted to Beijing by carriage. As a privilege of a military nobleman, although Dao Si did not have the power to arrest and interrogate him, he did not have the power to convict him. When he arrived in Luoyang, he still had the treatment of a three-level trial waiting for him. , this can truly determine the fate of Haijin.
After several months of interrogation, it was only today that we finally came to a conclusion. This was because Emperor Liu accidentally remembered that the matter had not been settled a few days ago, so he sent someone to urge it, and then the efficiency suddenly improved.
The Tribunal of Justice stated in the closing speech that Hai Jin’s crime of killing people and recklessly managing human lives cannot be pardoned. As for gathering a crowd to resist arrest and guarding the wall, although he was arrogant and arrogant, the crime of treason was a bit too heavy. It was agreed that it could be The crime is reduced by one level and the penalty of annihilation of the clan is exempted.
Therefore, the final punishment given by the Sanfa Division is to kill everyone...
At this time, looking at the results of the treatment, Emperor Liu looked indifferent, pondered for a long time, picked up the ink pen, and put a check mark at the end of the memorial, which was deemed to have approved the conclusion of the three-division review.
However, after writing, he couldn't help but sigh and said quietly: "Although Hai Jin is a member of the Xi tribe, he has been loyal and brave for decades and has made great contributions to the country. It's a pity that he won't be able to keep it until later..."
