Chang'an romantic

Chapter 220 Liwei

"Too arrogant!"

Du Chengyuan and others burst out this sentence in their hearts at the same time, exchanging eyes with each other, with disdain, contempt and anger on their faces. Pang Fei, who was standing with them, raised his eyebrows and stared angrily. Many people scratched their cheeks and coughed awkwardly, turning their faces to avoid his eyes.

Qin Mubai stood on the stage and waited for a moment. Seeing that no one stood up to speak, he said, "So, everyone approved what I just said, which is very good. The army is not the same as other places. As the saying goes, military orders are like mountains. As a soldier, it is the most basic requirement to abide by military discipline and obey orders. If you can't do these two points, just take off your military robe and go back to your hometown to farm. The Tang Dynasty doesn't need this kind of coy soldier!"

The whole audience was silent, and Qin Mubai was sonorous and powerful word by word, which made many people's eardrums hurt.

"A strange thing happened in the army last night." Qin Mubai suddenly changed his words and said harshly with a little anger, "The left camp water army actually gathered the camp after the ban in the middle of the night, threatening to kill the barracks and fight with people. In addition, the leader also insulted Shangguan in public with extreme arrogance, and his behavior was extremely bad, which was a serious violation of the military order! Today, I will try him according to the law in public - come here, bring up the military prisoner Feng Scar!"

The troops opened their eyes together and watched several hundred riders pull out the tied Feng knife scars. After standing in front of the general, Feng's scar, who was blocked by a rag, still glared at Qin Mubai and cried.

"Kneel down!" Qin Mubai shouted fiercely, but Feng's scar's eyes were bigger, and his face was as angry as if he was going to eat people. The two hundred riders behind him were annoyed. They kicked left and right in his knees. Feng knife scar suddenly hit his knees heavily on the ground with a flutter. The two hundred riders both pinched his collarbone pain hole and held him so hard that he could no longer move.

"In public, this thief has been bound and wants to come forward to attack me. What a bold act!" Qin Mubai said angrily, "Where is the long history!"

"I'm in a humble position!" A thin man in his forties came forward and bent down to bow to Qin Mubai, "Shi Shen Youzhou, the commander of the Xiangzhou Military Office, has seen General Qin."

Qin Mubai nodded and saluted him and said, "Judge Shi, you are in charge of the military discipline and the punishment order. Please declare the crime of Feng Scar in public in accordance with the military law of the Tang Dynasty!"

"Yes." Shen Youzhou arched his hand, and a pair of triangular eyes unconsciously glanced behind Qin Mubai, but hesitated not to say anything.

Qin Mubai knew that he was looking at Du Chengyuan and snorted coldly, "Shen Changshi, is it possible to erect an inscription engraved with the military law of the Tang Dynasty behind him?"

"No, no, no." Shen Youzhou coughed awkwardly, stood up straight and said loudly, "Feng Daoscar offended Shangguan after drinking and tried to gather the sergeants to fight. According to the law, he should be sentenced to the reduction of his brigade commander's military rank, and his salary will be confiscated, and his staff will be punished for fifty. His first offense was made, and he also made contributions to fighting bravely against water bandits in the past. I was sentenced to the punishment and judged him: to be reduced to be a soldier, and he was responsible for twenty. Because he was injured, the cane punishment was sent first, and then he was ordered to commit a crime and make contributions. If there is a recidivism, it is not acceptable to punish the two crimes and the punishment!"

Feng's scar, who was pressed to the ground, straightened his chest and smiled, shaking his head and shaking his head. I thought to myself: It doesn't matter if the military rank of brigade commander is cut off and the salary of land is taken away. In the future, the wind will be flat, or this Qin is out of here. Isn't it easy for me to get my official reinstatement? The stick is twenty, leave it and hit it... Haha, this is even more a picture cake! - Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, you can still do it!

Qin Mubai sneered and stared at Shen Youzhou.

At first, Shen Youzhou still looked like an endorsement. Later, he was stared at by Qin Mubai and was uncomfortable. After that, he was a little scared and his mouth trembling.

"Are you done?" Qin Mubai said in a low voice.

"Recommative... General Qin's words, the humble position is over." Shen Youzhou took a deep breath and composurely replied, "General Qin thinks that the sentence is appropriate?"

Qin Mubai did not answer, but turned to look at Du Chengyuan and other officials behind him and said, "Do you think the judge's judgment is fair and appropriate?"

Everyone made a discussion, and then nodded one after another, "It's very good, it's good..."

Qin Mubai was not in a hurry. He raised his finger and pointed to Du Chengyuan and said, "General Du, what do you think?"

Du Chengyuan was calm and calm. He stepped forward and hugged his fist and said, "The chief judge is in charge of the military discipline and the criminal order, and he is familiar with the military order. He must have weighed it over and over again, and then combined with the 'reason law' to make a fair judgment. He thinks it is appropriate and shows his support."

Qin Mubai nodded expressionlessly and said, "General Pang, what do you think?"

Du Chengyuan and Pang Fei are both lieutenants of Guo Yi, who are Qin Mubai's left and right deputy. After asking Du Chengyuan and then asking Pang Fei, it is also reasonable.

Pang Fei took a step forward and clenched his fist: "Go back to General Qin's words, the last general thought that the judgment of the chief judge's history was completely unreasonable and inconsistent with the military order. It was simply bullshit!"

"What did you say?" Shen Youzhou's face suddenly changed, and he pointed to Pang Fei and shouted in surprise.

"Zhen Youzhou, I'll ask you!" Pang Fei looked at youzhou angrily and shouted, "As a long history, you are in charge of the internal affairs and military discipline orders in the army, but are you really familiar with the military orders and regulations of our Tang army?"

"I, of course I know! I don't know. Do you still know?" Shen Youzhou's face was already red, and he argued angrily.

"Well, I will ask you--" Pang Fei pointed to Shen Youzhou and said harshly, "What are you talking about in the seventh article of the 'Ten Kills' ordered by the Tang Dynasty?"

"Say, say... say... say..." Shen Youzhou stammered, blushed his forehead and sweated coldly. After thinking about it, he muttered, "It's like... lost, reselling, deliberately destroying ordnance, behead!"

"You fart!" Pang Fei shouted angrily, "If you don't remember, I have a military order here, you can take it and have a look!"

After saying that, Pang Fei took out a military order book issued by Baiqi from his armor pocket and smashed it heavily on Shen Youzhou.

An old face of Shen Youzhou turned red and white, and he couldn't suppress Pang Fei, a powerful general. He had to open the military order book with trembling, looked at the old eyes and carefully in a row. Suddenly, he was shocked and said, "Article 7 of the Ten Orders, the following offenders who do not accept the order, cut it!"

"Huh!" Pang Fei snorted coldly, "Look at what is written in Article 27 of the 52nd sentence!"

"Yes... those who leave the barracks will be sentenced to 50 and fast for two days."

"Article 31!"

"Those who escape from the camp and prostitutes are responsible for fifty, cut off their military status and drive them out of the barracks!"

"You turn it back again, the second order of the ten beheads!"

"Gather more than ten people to organize weapons fighters, cut!"

"If you turn it back again, you will be punished by Article 46!"

......

Shen Youzhou was so busy and sweaty that he turned over the pages of the book in a hurry, and his mouth was already stattering: "After the ban, those who went out of the camp without permission, 20 sticks, fined two meals."

"Enough!" Qin Mubai shouted, forced to look at the trial Youzhou, and said coldly, "The long history, I have ordered you to go back immediately to familiarize yourself with the military regulations, and you must recite it backwards. I will evaluate you in person in three days. If you can't do it, you don't have to do this long history!"

"What, what!" Shen Youzhou said in horror, "General Qin, although the inferiority of the position is low, at least it is the official position assigned by the Ministry of Officials. What power do you have to remove the inferior position?"

"Huh! Then why don't you give it a try to see if I can stop your official position now, let you go back to farming, and never step into an official career for the rest of your life? Qin Mubai sneered.

Jian Youzhou was stunned, and the military order book in his hand also fell to the ground. He looked at Du Chengyuan in panic and asked for help, but Du Chengyuan deliberately turned a blind eye to him.

Then he panicked and thought to himself: This man surnamed Qin is from the capital. It is said that he is also the son of Qin Shubao. He is both the general Huzi and the emperor's son-in-law. He must be well-sighted in the capital! If he wants to dismiss my official, isn't that a letter or a sentence? Du Chengyuan has some ways even in Chang'an, but how can those bigwigs who can walk the door go for me or fight against Qin Mubai? ...Oh, my God, why am I so stupid? I listened to Du Chengyuan's assignment to do such a stupid thing?

"No, no, no, General Qin forgives me! Forgive me!" Shen Youzhou swallowed a mouthful of saliva, hurriedly bent down and bowed his hands repeatedly, and said nervously, "I will go back to study hard and familiarize with the military order immediately. If it doesn't take three days, I will ask General Qin to test it in two days!"

"It's your knowledge. Go ahead!" Qin Mubai shouted in a low voice. Shen Youzhou picked up the military order book on the ground in a hurry and fled.

The scene was suddenly an uproar, and all the sergeants were shocked and talked about it one after another. Du Chengyuan and other generals looked more embarrassed and nervous.

"Guys, do you want to familiarize yourself with the military order and then judge whether it is appropriate to judge the verdict of Zhou Fangcai?" Qin Mubai asked.

"No, no..." Many people hurriedly waved their hands and answered.

Only Du Chengyuan, with a green and muffled face, did not look at Qin Mubai.

"That is to say, you have no doubt about the military order recited by General Pang Fei just now?" Qin Mubai said again.

"No, no, absolutely not!" The officials answered again in a mouthful way.

Seeing that Shen Youzhou suffered a big loss, he was almost dismissed as an official in the inattention. Most of the officials present clearly understood in their hearts: this Qin Mubai is not a reckless young man. He is completely prepared and has enough confidence and strength!

Otherwise, how dare he say such big words as Shen Youzhou in public? Everyone is not a three-year-old child. How can they be stricken by such a sentence? This Qin Mubai doesn't look like an idiot and a fool. How can he say such stupid words and give people a handle?

Obviously, his nud threat just now is to kill chickens and monkeys! - In the past, in the Xiangzhou military palace, he could make it easier with Du Chengyuan and keep his official job; but at present, if he goes against Qin Mubai, he will definitely lose his job!

The officials present have a lot in their hearts. The balance between the two, and their hearts have become clear - if the competition continues, Qin Mubai will win and Du Chengyuan will lose completely. After all, the elbow can't twist the thick thigh! Well, even if you can't betray Du Chengyuan, don't offend Qin Mubai!

"That's it!" Qin Mubai said, "Everyone has seen that General Pang Fei is extremely familiar with the military order of the Tang Dynasty. He temporarily replaced Changshi Youzhou and made a new judgment on Feng Scar. Do you have any comments?"

Everyone was speechless and looked at Du Chengyuan at the same time.

Du Chengyuan was already difficult to ride a tiger. He swallowed a breath of anger and said calmly, "General Qin, there is a saying in humble position. I don't know whether to say it or not."

"Since you say so, you must want to talk about it?" Qin Mubai smiled and said, "Since it's a public trial, you should express your own opinions. Tell me!"

Du Chengyuan was ridiculed once, and the corners of his mouth twitched and he did not dare to attack, so he had to swallow his anger and said, "As the saying goes, the law does not blame the public. As far as I know, Feng Scar was not the only one who went out to camp yesterday to prostitute, fight with people, and gathered people to roar. If it is really strictly investigated, many people dare not say that at least half of the soldiers of the Zuoying navy will be beheaded... General Qin, since he is a strict judgment according to the law, how can he only take Feng Scar to plead guilty? Even if his behavior is the most prominent and hateful, how can he conform to the military order just by punishing him? How can he convince the public?

Du Chengyuan's voice was not loud, just so that the sergeants in the first few rows could hear it. His words did not fall, and there was an uproar at the scene!

The sergeants were shocked!

"Do you still want to kill people?"

"No way! Is it possible that our whole Zuoying brothers will suffer?!"

......

Qin Mubai's eyes narrowed with a touch of murder, and he said angrily in his heart: You are cruel, Du Chengyuan! You want to let Feng Scar drag so many people into the water! What do you say that doesn't blame the public... Are you going to deliberately provoke all the sailors and soldiers in the left camp to create chaos, trap me under the target of public criticism, and let me become their public enemy to isolate me?!

So vicious!

Seeing that the sergeants were talking fiercely, Du Chengyuan quickly stepped forward and shouted, "Brothers, do you think I'm right? How can it make sense for everyone to commit crimes and punish only one person?

"Yes, yes! General Du is right!" Some of the sergeants shouted immediately.

Obviously, Du Chengyuan still has many confidants in this army.

"If the punishment is really strictly in accordance with the military order, at least half of the brothers of the Zuoying Water Army will eat boards, cut military ranks, deduct salaries, and even fall to the ground!" Du Chengyuan was unforgiving, and then shouted, "How can you convince the public with such a punishment? Is it possible to drive away and kill all the soldiers of our Xiangzhou Military Mansion before we can join the military order?

"Yes, yes! How can it be like this!"

......

Pang Fei stood beside Qin Mubai, holding the handle of the knife in one hand, and his eyes showed that he was about to cut people at any time.

Qin Mubai was as calm as before, secretly giving Pang Fei a look, signaling him not to be impulsive.

Du Chengyuan ran to the stage and shouted for a long time, and really provoked the anger of the sergeants. Seeing that the scene was already passionate, it seemed that it was going to change!

Du Chengyuan glanced at Qin Mubai with a smug smile on his face. Turning around, he bowed his hand to Qin Mubai and said with a serious face, "General Qin, it's not that he deliberately incites the wind, but that people's hearts and people's feelings. Please also ask Qin Mubai to measure the hearts of the people and punish them. Don't let the hearts of the brothers be cold, and don't provoke the brothers!"

"Du Chengyuan, are you done shouting?" Qin Mubai was like a nothing butt. He cut his hands behind his back and said slowly, "You incite and want to force the palace in public, and everyone present can be witnessed. When I finish dealing with Feng Scar, I will argue with you again! - Pang Fei, don't declare the sentence yet!"

"Yes!" Pang Fei came forward and stared at Du Chengyuan like a cold knife. His left hand holding the handle of the knife was about to pull the knife, which made Du Chengyuan bounce back reflexively - "What do you want to do!"

"The greedy and afraid of death dare to fight with us!" Pang Fei's left hand was held on the handle of the knife, and the knife did not come out of the sheath.

"You, you..." Du Chengyuan was teased once. He was so angry that his lungs were about to explode, and he didn't know how to attack. He could only point to Pang Fei and trembled with anger.

Qin Mubai stepped forward and said, "Before General Pang's sentencing, I would have two words to say."

"One, the army has military rules, and the law is not merciless. When death row prisoners go to prison, they are all going to be beheaded. Is it possible that because there are still unskilled people outside the prison, it means that the law is unfair to him? Is it possible to wait for all the repeat offenders in the world to be arrested before the vicious death row prisoners and criminals are punished? Du Chengyuan's theory is purely a big fallacy. All brothers don't have to listen to him;"

"Second, Feng Scar committed the crime yesterday, which he would have seen and caught in person. As the saying goes, the traitor is caught in bed and the thief grabs the stolen goods, and the evidence of Feng Scar's crime is conclusive and cannot be denied. There may be other accomplices in the crowd, but there will be no evidence, and they will never catch people randomly. Du Chengyuan's words are purely to confuse the public and stir up discord. In the future, brothers must be careful in what they say and do, and don't be caught by me for violating military orders. Otherwise, the punishment will not be forgiven!"

Then the sergeants breathed a sigh of relief: I thought I was going to be killed, but I didn't!

The mouths of those Du Chengyuan's best friends were also blocked. They were anxious and couldn't hold their words.

Qin Mubai waved his hand, Pang Fei nodded and crossed his waist, and shouted, "I will sentence the criminal Feng Scar in accordance with the military law of the Tang Dynasty - according to the second and seventh of the ten beheading orders of the Tang Dynasty, Feng Scar gathered more than ten people to fight in the armed battle; if he openly commits the order, he should beheaded; if he goes out of the camp to go out of the camp without permission, he should be punished five. Ten... Several crimes and punishments, sentence - Yuanmen beheading, cutting off military status and military rank, confiscate property and salary, and execute it immediately!"

"Yes-"

Four executioners in red, carrying more than one-person-long chopping knives, came forward and dragged Feng's scar and ran to the door.

The whole scene is full of surprises!

Feng Scar struggled desperately, and one of the executioners in red waved the handle of the knife and hit him on the head heavily, fainting on the spot.

Du Chengyuan's face turned white and he hurried to Qin Mubai: "General Qin, please say a few more words--"

"Puff--" I only heard a crisp sound from Yuanmen not far away. Du Chengyuan's whole body trembled and his eyes were straight.

Qin Mubai said lightly, "You speak too slowly, General Du. The dead are dead. Please take your condolences and collect the body!"

The executioners in red are all hundred riders. The military officers of the Chinese army, such as Si Ji and Si Ge, also have the duty of execution. The eight major cuts in front of the Chinese army's tent are all carried out by a hundred riders.

Du Chengyuan seemed to have been splashed with a bucket of cold water on his head. His face was trembling and his face was white and his lips were clear. He turned around and looked at Yuanmen. The four executioners in red walked over with a bloody hand in their hands and hugged Qin Mubai and said, "The military prisoner has been awarded the head, and the criminal has come to restore his life!"

"Di Da, Da Da..."

Feng Scar had a good head, which was broken from his neck and kept bleeding down. A head with a scar and a ferocious expression on his face made many officials behind Qin Mubai's face white and dare not come out.

The whole audience is awe-inspiring, and I don't know how many people are scared!

"The general's prisoner's head showed the whole battalion and ordered the three armies! In the future, who dares to break our military order is the same as this thief!" Qin Mubai shouted loudly.

"Yes--" The executioners answered the promise and ran to the array with their bloody hands to show their heads.

Du Chengyuan's cold expression was stiff in place, his face trembled like dead ashes, and he muttered, "How can I, what should I say to my wife?"

"Don't worry, General Du." Qin Mubai said, "After the head is shown to the three armies, I will let you collect the body and return the corpse to Feng Daoscar. As for the matter that you just confused the public, I would not have seriously investigated it for the sake of your concern for the lives of your relatives. But you have to write a confession and submit it to me, one is to admit mistakes, and the other is to promise that you will not make such mistakes in the future. Do you have any questions?"

"There is no doubt about the inferiority of General Qin's words." Du Chengyuan didn't know how to fight his spirit. He turned around and bowed to Qin Mubai and muttered, "General Xie Qin forgives, humble position... humble position will write well."

"This is the best." Qin Mubai smiled coldly at the corners of his mouth and looked up at the army.

Several executioners ran around the whole scene, so that the sergeants could see all the hands of Feng Scar, and then returned to the front of the general stage.

"This is the end of the day." Qin Mubai shouted, "I ordered the whole army to return to the camp, read the military rules of the military order, and make a unified assessment three days later. If there is any unqualified at that time, they will be severely punished!"

Qin Mubai's voice settled down, and the whole audience was silent. More than 90% of people dodge and dare not look directly at Qin Mubai, with a frightened look on their faces.

"Did you hear it clearly?"

"I heard it clearly..."

"Speak louder, are you all a lady?"

"Listen, clear, clear--" More than a thousand people roared, as if venting the infinite fear in their chests.

"Very good." Qin Mubai smiled with satisfaction and waved his hand, "Sold-"
