Chapter 14: Doing Too Much Injustice Will Suicide
The governor was promoted to the court to personally try civil cases, which was extremely rare in the history of the Ming Dynasty.
Just say that the murder case that happened this time should be the Qiantang County Office and the Hangzhou Government Office. But these two Hangzhou City parents were afraid of the background of the admiral and weaving eunuch Sun Qing, so they chose Mingzhe to protect himself as a turtle.
Logically speaking, there is a government yamen who are in charge of the government yamen. But Zhu Wan didn't plan to wait any longer. Although he was the governor of Zhejiang for only about a month, he saw Sun Qing's many domineering behaviors with his own eyes.
In order to take into account the overall situation, I was able to endure the general matter. But this time, Sun Qing instructed his lackeys to take human life into consideration. If he still pretended to be deaf and mute, how could he be worthy of the emperor's trust in him, how could he be worthy of the black gauze on his head, how could he be worthy of the more than 5 million people of Zhejiang Chengxuan Zhengshi?
The accumulated ills in the officialdom cannot be eliminated in one day, but someone always needs to do it. If everyone shrinks, then there will be no hope.
What's more, this time the conflict was all directed at eunuchs. The officials of the Ming Dynasty may not say it, but they are all despised and despised the eunuchs in their hearts.
Zhu Wan did not ask Zhejiang officials to jointly impeach Sun Qing with him, as long as they did not restrain themselves.
But Zhu Wan changed into official uniforms and sat down, and said that the miser was coming to the hall.
A moment later, the three miserables were taken to the church and bowed to Zhu Wan.
They are just ordinary weavers, machinists, and machinists. The biggest "official" they have ever seen on weekdays is the supervisor of the weavering yamen. When they see the dignified governor, they are all trembling with fear.
"People under the hall will raise their heads."
Zhu Wan gave the order and the three miserables raised their heads. They saw that there were more or less blood marks on their faces that were beaten by whips, which was very terrifying.
"Is the one who sued the admiral weaving eunuch Sun Qing?"
"Reporting to the master, we are suing the old castrated man."
An older weaver plucked up his courage and said, "This morning, four of us brothers and other weavers and the machine owners came to the weaving office to petition outside the weaving yamen, asking for the release of Chen Yuanwai, who was wrongly imprisoned. Chen Yuanwai is kind and never owes everyone his monthly money. During the holidays, he will also order people to give everyone some dried fish and jerky meat. How can such a kind-hearted person be corrupt? The reason why everyone can't hand over silk this year is not because Chen Yuanwai
The outside world swallowed the money allocated by the imperial court, but because Zhejiang was suffering from Japanese trespass, the silkworm farmers had no intention of raising silkworms. Where did this silk come from without silk? How could it be possible to weave silk without silk? The old castrated man didn't understand such a simple truth. We were just petitioning outside the yamen and telling him this truth. Who knew that this guy didn't listen at all, and he ordered his evil servants to take action to hurt people. My third brother was beaten to death. Please make the decision for the grass people."
The other two also kowtowed in tears: "Please make the decision for us, Master."
Zhu Wan was already furious when she heard this.
Sun Qing first falsely accused Chen Yuanwai of corruption, and then instructed the evil servants to commit murder in the streets in broad daylight. Such unscrupulous and domineering style was quite a bit like the Eight Tigers of the previous dynasty.
It’s a pity that the eunuchs are no longer in power, and the Zhengde Dynasty, who is excluded from Qingliu.
When Zi ascended the throne, he saw the disadvantages of eunuchs' chaos in politics and laid off a large number of eunuchs in various places. Although positions such as the Hangzhou Admiral Weaving Eunuchs were retained, their power was greatly reduced.
Now Sun Qing cannot recognize the situation. Not only will he not behave like a person with his tail, but he also frames the loyal and kind-hearted people for their lives. He is really seeking death.
"Where is the body of the deceased?"
"When you say that to the master, my third brother's body will be wrapped in a straw mat outside the hall..."
Zhu Wan immediately sent an order and ordered the coroner to go and check it.
While waiting, he asked about some details and the document beside him wrote down one by one.
After the coroner inspection was completed, Zhu Wan had already made some mistakes in her mind.
"Don't worry, you can't help but the net of heaven is vast and unlimited. I will definitely make the decision for you."
After Zhu Wan's guarantee, the three weavers thanked Zhu Wan one after another.
"Thank you, thank you, Master Qingtian."
If the perpetrator is an ordinary Zhejiang official, he can directly submit a memorial to impeachment. If the official involved is below the fifth rank, he can even directly order someone to take it down.
But it was a bit troublesome for eunuchs like Sun Qing.
In the Ming Dynasty, the eunuch system and the civil servant system were completely independent. Although there may be some business intersections between the two in daily life, they are essentially not related to the river.
In other words, although Zhu Wan could impeach Sun Qing, he had no right to verdict, and at most he could only limit Sun Qing's freedom. Before the emperor saw the memorial and issued an imperial edict, he had no right to deal with Sun Qing.
Even though Sun Qing has a very bad reputation, even if Sun Qing has already aroused public grievances.
I have to say that this is a bit sad. Moreover, before the emperor saw the memorial, it would definitely be written by the cabinet and approved by the Minister of Li.
If Sun Qing is in the inner court, it is also a problem if the Silis Commission will not make a statement.
But he didn't want to have so many concerns anymore.
When the new official takes office, everyone stares at him and Zhu Wan. The so-called "upward action and downward effect" is, if Zhu Wan shows me tactfulness, then all officials will definitely follow suit, and the officialdom in Zhejiang will become chaotic. Only when he is upright and keeps the bottom line can the officials below do something practical.
The situation in the southeast is now grim, with Japanese pirates and pirates in the Florida. If the Zhejiang officialdom cannot be united, how can it be possible to wipe out the bandits?
Therefore, Zhu Wan had to make up her mind to eliminate cancers like Sun Qing, both for the people of Zhejiang and for civil and military officials.
Black is black, white is white.

Chen Mansion.
Shortly after Xu Yan came back, his grandfather Chen Han was sent back by the people from the prefect's office.
Xu Yan thought that this must be Zhu Wan's words, otherwise this sleek Prefect Ma would not have let people go so happily.
No matter what, it would be a good thing for grandpa to come back.
When Chen Zongzhi heard that his father was back, he cried so excitedly.
Seeing that his father had lost a lot of weight, he was even more guilty.
"It's all my son who is useless. I'm watching my father suffer in prison. If Brother Qiu hadn't gone to find Lord Futai, I'm afraid his father would still be in prison."
Mr. Chen gave Chen Zongyi a blank look and said, "Why are you crying? I'm not dead yet."
Chen Zongzhi quickly rubbed his eyes.
Chen Han then turned to Xu Yan and looked up and down, nodded with relief: "Brother Qiu is so tall... I have a promising conversation with the governor."
Xu Yan hurriedly said, "Grandpa is too much."
Xu Huaiyuan smiled and said, "Old Taishan auspicious people will have their own appearance. Is this matter going to be awesome?"
