Chapter 60 Punishment
Everyone present looked at Zhuge Xianyu.
Zhuge Xianyu looked calm and said calmly: "The fight with 50% of the soldiers and horses was indeed done under my instructions."
Feng Qianjin said sharply: "You are finally willing to admit it!"
Originally, he had tried his best to find a way to identify Zhuge Xianyu from the other four people, but unexpectedly he actually admitted it. In this way, the main responsibility for this matter naturally fell on him.
Zhuge Xianyu said: "After the trial of the case that day, we met with the military commander outside Dali Temple. The other party made provocative words. I couldn't bear it anymore, so I ordered Fan Xiaodao and others to teach me a lesson. I am responsible for this matter, and the owner should be held responsible.
It’s on me.”
Fan Xiaodao said: "This matter has nothing to do with the chief arrest, I took the initiative to beat people."
Murong Tiezhu was also quite surprised and asked: "Master Zhuge, you have to think clearly before speaking."
Zhuge Xianyu repeated: "I have thought it over carefully. However, the troops of the Five Cities are in charge of market inspections and do not have the power to handle cases. They abused their power and overstepped their authority to interfere in the affairs of the Six Gates, which is a major overstep. In addition, they also forged evidence to frame the case.
My colleagues from the Six Sects are of extremely bad nature, please Sir Murong to deal with them as well!"
Feng Qianjin argued: "Mr. Murong, this matter has nothing to do with today's investigation."
Murong Tiezhu thought about it, discussed it with several hearing officials, and said: "This matter has a direct causal relationship with the fight." He immediately ordered the clerk to write the matter into the report.
Since Zhuge Xianyu has admitted that the main responsibility will be borne by him, and Fan Xiaodao and others are secondary responsibilities, to a certain extent, Zhuge Xianyu's behavior saved the four of them. Even if the responsibility was determined,
A street fight that results in the death of three or more people or serious injuries to more than ten people should be considered a major accident. Now that people are lying on the floor in the hall, it has exceeded the standard for serious accidents. If liability is determined in this way, Zhuge Xianyu is afraid
If he were to be removed from office and sentenced, his career would probably come to an end.
Zhao Xing came out of the queue and said, "Sir, I have some doubts about something."
"Speaking."
"On the day of the fight, sixty people surrounded the five of us. Out of legitimate self-defense, we had no choice but to take action, and the strike was very measured. It only caused the opponent to lose combat effectiveness, and no one was injured or disabled. But now there are so many serious injuries in the lobby.
I suspect that some of them have faked their injuries, so I kindly ask you to send someone to inspect the injuries."
Murong Tiezhu cast an inquiring look at Feng Qianjin, and Feng Qianjin said: "These people were indeed injured by five people." He barely supported his body, pointed at a group of people and said: "This Commander Liu just married his concubine last month.
, was beaten to a severe disability by Zhao Xing, and his life was cut off. This one is Li Baihu, a divine security guard known as the Soldiers and Horses Division. His legs were broken during the fight and he is still unable to get off the ground. And he,
He, he, are all brothers of our Army and Horses Division who have been through life and death, and they are all officers and soldiers serving the imperial court. I am willing to personally guarantee that they did not commit fraud!"
Murong Tiezhu said: "I hear you are quite angry!"
"Xiaoguan is also seriously injured. Just for the sake of the brothers, he has strong self-support, rheumatism, arthritis, lumbar disc herniation, and mitral valve laxity. These are all good things they have done!"
"Do you dare to verify it on the spot?"
"certainly!"
Murong Tiezhu said: "Send someone to find Doctor Xue!"
Not long after, an old man with gray hair and a boyish face came into the lobby. He was the current Dr. Xue from the Imperial Hospital. After Murong briefly explained the situation to him, Dr. Xue came to the side of the wounded in the Soldiers and Horses Division. Suddenly, everyone began to groan.
.
Murong said impatiently: "What are you pretending to be? I didn't see you shouting and yelling just now. Dr. Xue is here to treat you for free. Those who make random noises will be slapped with forty punches first."
Everyone kept silent.
Doctor Xue stepped forward and checked Feng Qianjin's pulse, then asked him to stick out his tongue, and said to Feng Qianjin: "Your tongue coating is yellow, and your kidneys are not in good condition."
Feng Qianjin said: "They were all beaten by Fan Xiaodao."
Doctor Xue shook his head and checked the others one by one. After about half an hour, he said, "Sir, these injuries are fine. They can recover in a few days."
Feng Qianjin said: "Even though they are in good health, their internal organs were injured. They used their internal energy when they started."
Doctor Xue said coldly: "Since the internal organs are injured, why are they wrapped up like this? Are you questioning my medical skills?"
He is the chief physician of the Royal Hospital. He treats His Majesty and the nobles in the palace all year round. He has a very aloof personality. He directly rejected Feng Qianjin’s doubts. Feng Qianjin said: "As the saying goes, internal injuries can be treated externally. They seem to be fine.
, but you are dizzy and have no ability to move at all. You old guy, I am afraid you are a quack!"
Doctor Xue was provoked and said: "In that case, I have a way to cure your disease."
He came to Murong Tiezhu and whispered a few words to him. Murong Tiezhu heard the words and said: "This is not good. But you can try it!" After that, he called two Jinyi guards and gave him a few instructions.
, not long after, two royal guards led two Tibetan mastiffs into the main hall. The Tibetan mastiffs were ferocious and barked wildly on the spot. When everyone saw this, they backed away.
Feng Qianjin said: "What are you doing?"
Dr. Xue said: "This miraculous doctor's technique is called Running Rehabilitation Treatment, and it has a great effect on your injuries."
"My people can't move, and it's difficult to even breathe. You're trying to kill someone by acting like this!"
Doctor Xue took a pack of powder and sprinkled it on them. The two Tibetan mastiffs drooled and smelled the smell of everyone, and immediately became violent. The two guards in Jinyi could hardly control them. Doctor Xue said: "Just try it.
When someone comes, close the door and let the dogs out!"
Feng Qianjin ordered in a low voice to everyone: "He is trying to scare us, please hold back! I don't believe he dares to let the dog go!"
Whoosh!
A Tibetan Mastiff broke free from the control, ran out, and pounced on everyone.
Upon seeing this, the dozen or so injured people jumped up and ran away. The scene was very chaotic for a time. Feng Qianjin, who was originally lying on the bed, saw the Tibetan Mastiff coming towards her, yelled "Oh my God" and started running wildly.
Doctor Xue took another packet of medicinal powder and sprinkled it on the Tibetan Mastiff. The Tibetan Mastiff immediately calmed down.
He sneered: "What? Is my method effective?"
Fan Xiaodao flattered him, "The miracle doctor is indeed a miracle doctor!"
…
The results of the investigation and handling are out. The two yamen took action. Although the Wucheng Army and Horses Division overstepped their authority first, the Six Gates took the lead and it was under the instigation of Zhuge Xianyu. In addition, the two yamen had a history of fighting before.
Both sides played their own cards, but the penalties imposed by both sides were somewhat thought-provoking.
The Military and Horse Division warned Feng Qianjin and fined him half a year's salary for overstepping his authority in investigating the case and framing Fan Xiaodao and Zhao Xing.
The results of the six gates were a bit tragic. Zhuge Xianyu ordered the six gates to fight. Although there were no serious injuries, the social impact was too bad. In addition to the impeachment of Yushitai, the imperial court removed Zhuge Xianyu from the post of chief arrester.
, was demoted to deputy chief arrest officer, and the remaining four people had secondary responsibilities. Zhao Xing and Ding Yi were fined, while Fan Xiaodao and Niu Dafu were in the probation period, and were fined half their salary, and the probation period was extended to one year.
Between the two yamen, the results of the processing are clear at a glance, which one is more serious.
"That's unreasonable!"
When Fan Xiaodao received the punishment, he immediately complained for Zhuge Xian Yu, "Just for such a small thing, Lord Zhuge was demoted? The matter started with us, but Lord Zhuge took the blame. I don't accept it, and I want to apply for reconsideration."
!”
"Reconsideration? Reconsideration with whom? This matter was investigated by Jin Yiwei and reported to the palace for approval. Are you going to file a complaint?" Zhao Xingdao said, "When taking action in the future, it is the right way to think more about the consequences."
Niu Dafu said: "But when you do it, one kick at a time, I don't see your feet being weak!"
Zhao Xing defended: "I have excessive bile secretion."
Fan Xiaodao said: "What's disgusting is that this incident was clearly caused by the Military and Horse Division, but the imperial court's punishment for them was neither painful nor itchy. This revenge must be avenged."
"Ahem!"
During the chat, Zhuge Xianyu appeared behind them. The three of them noticed it and even stepped forward to say hello. Zhuge Xianyu said, "Why, you are not convinced?"
All three nodded.
"Is the chief arrester willing to do this?"
Zhuge Xianyu said: "Your Majesty has already nodded in this matter. Thunder, rain and dew are all blessings. Don't talk behind your back, let alone take revenge for this, especially Fan Xiaodao. I heard that the investigation team initially wanted to dismiss you and investigate.
Later, I didn’t know that he had contributed secretly, but he just fined me a salary to get rid of the problem. You should cherish it."
Someone is secretly helping?
It's probably Xue Yingxiong, Fan Xiaodao thought. This matter was investigated by Jin Yiwei and must have gone through him before reporting it. He also has no other powerful friends in the capital. It is not difficult to guess that it may be because of his relationship with Song Jingang.
Let's take a look at it.
However, he still said angrily: "Half salary, less than one tael of silver a month, just don't do this errand! Even if you sell buns on the overpass or tell stories, you can make much more than this."
Zhuge Xianyu said earnestly, "Being a policeman is not to make money, but to protect the safety of a place. If you have this idea, just don't do it." He sighed and added: "But, I did it at Liumen.
After more than 20 years and no achievements, it’s time for me to abdicate and make way for others.”
Only then did the three of them see the package behind him and said in shock: "Captain Chief, what are you doing?"
"The imperial court has other plans for me."
"Isn't it just demotion?"
"Yes, but they want me to go to the six gates of Yingtian Mansion."
Fan Xiaodao and Niu Dafu didn't know, but Zhao Xing knew that this decree was equivalent to banishing Zhuge Xianyu in disguise. After all, the capital was under the emperor's feet, and Yingtian Mansion was only the capital. Once it was far away from the center of power, Emperor Tiangao
Far, far away, if you want to recover or be promoted, there is basically no hope in this life.
Unexpectedly, they made such a fuss and brought such consequences to Zhuge Xianyu.
Zhuge Xianyu, however, was open-minded and said, "I am getting older. I was a guilty person back then. Now that I can go to Jinling, it is a good start and a good end. You are different, you are still young, and you have a long road ahead." He warned,
"Xiao Dao, the capital is very dangerous. You act too recklessly. You should be careful with your words in the future. Zhao Xing, you have a chivalrous heart, but you are too straightforward. You must know that trouble comes from your mouth. You should weigh the pros and cons when doing things in the future."
Niu Dafu said: "What about me?"
Zhuge Xianyu smiled and said: "You spent three thousand taels of silver and entered six doors. I won't say more."
Zhuge Xianyu left.
No one saw him off, which was also his deliberate refusal. He knew that fighting with the Soldiers and Horses Division was just a pretext, and his departure would be a matter of time. This had been a foregone conclusion since Fan Xiaodao entered the capital. That incident that year,
Those who know the truth will die, no matter how hard they are, he was just demoted to Jinling, which can be regarded as a good death.
An era will eventually end.
