Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty-Six Liu Dashan's Bull Criticism!

The elders of the Songjiang Prefecture Farmers Association were almost laughing. Not only was the family of Liu Dashanren tied up to the Farmers Association by the people of the Liu family village, but even the housekeeper of Liu Dashanren's family was preparing to report Liu Dashanren's family in the form of surrendering and expose the ruins of Liu Dashanren's affairs.

It really perfectly explains what it means to search for without any effort.

Wu Ju, the leader of the peasant association of Songjiang Prefecture, immediately sent an official document to the Jinyiwei Yamen and the Censorate Office, requesting that the Jinyiwei Yamen and the Censorate Office send people to the Liu Mansion to investigate and collect evidence. At the same time, he also wrote to the Ducha Censorate Office and asked the Ducha Censorate Office to send Ducha Censor to participate in the public trial of the Liu Dashanren's family.

That's right, it's a public trial.

As we all know, Zhu Jinsong, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, has always copied as much as possible. When he can touch the rabbit and cross the river, he will never try the depth of the water by himself.

The public trial of a weapon was used since the day Zhu Jinsong rebelled, and later, rules were gradually formed. Any matters that were not involved in military or certain secrets, the Ming government could also make public trials, and try to be open, fair and just.

As for cases like Liu Dashan, which involves the interests of the people, it will be even more necessary to be tried on the public, but also the Jinyiwei, the inspector of the Censorate, the Songjiang Prefecture Office, and the Farmers Association have joined forces to conduct a public trial outside the Liujiazhuang.

But no one expected that even though the butler of the Liu family and a group of so-called "family children" were willing to be witnesses, even if the Jinyiwei and the inspector's Censorate found countless evidence in the Liu family compound, the Grand Lord Liu was still calm and even insisted that he was innocent.

Because Liu Dashanren knew very well that if he admitted the evidence from the Farmers' Association and the inspectors of the Censorate and the Jinyiwei, the best result would be that his family would go together. The worst result might be that all the father and son would be slackened, and they would not be able to go together with their family.

For this reason, when facing the interrogation of the Tucha Censorate and the Songjiang Prefecture magistrate, Liu Dashan directly denied that what he did was wrong. I admit that some things were done by me, but I cannot admit that I did everything. I admit that some things may be done wrong, but I absolutely do not admit that everything is wrong.

For example, those gossip tabloids, Liu Dashan said bluntly that he did not do anything wrong: "I, Mr. Liu, have never been tossed with any newspapers. I just wrote some articles and printed them out in boredom. It is completely different from the nature of the newspaper."

"As for why I want to write articles? Of course, it is because I think some places in the court have not done well enough and not in place, so I wrote them down in the form of articles and planned to submit them to the court."

"So, it is my fault that these articles are spread, but I am absolutely not wrong with writing articles and thinking about the sake of the Ming Dynasty!"

The Ducha Censor, who was responsible for the public trial of Liu Dashan and the elders of the Songjiang Prefecture Farmers Association, were shocked. Look, look at the other person, Liu Dashan, had just removed all the responsibilities on his body in just a few simple words!

If you follow the thoughts of Liu Daliang Man, I am afraid that Liu Daliang Man is not only innocent, but is still a great person who cares about the world and cares about the country and the people!

Unfortunately, civil servants like the inspectors and the prefect of Songjiang Prefecture may be brought into the ditch by Liu Dashan, while those old men selected from the folk in the Songjiang Prefecture Farmers Association are not affected by Liu Dashan’s arguments.

Chen Shengli, the leader of the Songjiang Prefecture Farmers Association, slapped the agglomeration and asked: "Serious Liu! I ask you, are the accounts found by the Jinyiwei in your house all real?"

Liu Dashan nodded first, then shook his head: "Sir, the villain does use these books to manage the property of the family. However, the villain's family has become rich since the Kangxi period and was spread to the villain for four generations. The villain is really not sure about the previous accounts."

"As for saying that the villain is in charge of the property in the family, it was already during the Qianlong period. The villain was not very proficient in math, so he handed over all the books to the housekeeper Liu Erbang to deal with this thief. Since he could sell his owner for honor, the villain did not know whether the books he had verified were true or false."

When Liu Erben, the butler of the Liu family, was furious when he heard this, pointed at Liu Dashanren and shouted: "It's just a slander! My second uncle Liu has been a servant in your Liu family for more than 30 years and is loyal to your Liu family. Now you say this?"

Grandman Liu rolled his eyes and asked, "I have been in the business for more than 30 years to betray me Mr. Liu. I really didn't expect that you, Erlu Liu, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, is also a villain who forgets his righteousness when he sees profit!"

Liu Erbo was immediately trembling with anger.

As Uncle Liu said, he had been in the Liu Mansion for more than 30 years and had been a housekeeper for nearly 20 years. It would be no exaggeration to say that he was loyal to him. If Uncle Liu's second son had not read more books in the library and recognized the true face of Grand Lord Liu, he was afraid that Uncle Liu would have stubbornly let his two sons accompany Grand Lord Liu's two sons to go out to sea!

However, Liu Erbol did not think of how to refute the statement of Liu Dasheng, because he was indeed the one who took the initiative to report it. During the Qing Dynasty, this was called using slaves to hinder the master, and it was a serious crime of being beaten to death.

After a while of silence, Uncle Liu simply sighed and said, "Since the master doesn't believe me, why did I be the housekeeper for so many years? If the master thinks that Uncle Liu has failed the trust of the Liu family, then Uncle Liu will be worth one life, so that people in the world can say that Uncle Liu sells his owner for honor!"

Uncle Liu's two sons were shocked!

Uncle Liu's eldest son looked at Uncle Liu and shouted: "Dad! Master Liu is obviously motivating each other with words, so my father must not be fooled!"

Uncle Liu's second son glared at Liu Dashan and shouted: "Liu Thief! Although my father is the housekeeper of your Liu family, these books are sorted out by the accountant of the Liu family. It's not that my father can make up for it. Don't swear to others!"

Grandman Liu snorted coldly and simply ignored the Liu family's father and son.

Looking at all this, Chen Shengli, the leader of the Songjiang Prefecture Farmers Association, snorted coldly, slapped the agglomeration again, shouted: "Uncle Liu! What crimes do you have and what crimes should you be? After all, you have to go through the ruling of the Ming Law. How can you easily say nonsense about one life and one life!"

After scolding Liu Erbang, Chen Shengli looked at Liu Dashan again and said, "Liu Dashan is indeed iron-toothed and bronze-toothed. Chen admires it, admires it!"

The heart of the Grand Lord Liu tightened, but his expression on his face had not changed at all. He bowed to Chen Shengli: "The villain is just telling the truth, I hope the master will not blame him."

Chen Shengli snorted coldly and asked, "Da Shan Ren Liu, the more than 70 contracts sold by the Jinyiwei found from your home. Are these true?"

Seeing that Liu Dashanren's eyes were constantly turning, as if he was thinking about how to deny it, Guanbu, the Jinyiwei stationed in Songjiang Prefecture, simply sneered and said to Liu Dashanren: "Does Liu Dashanren think that these contracts were all caused by our Jinyiwei?"

After asking, Guan Bu did not wait for the answer from the Grand Lord Liu to answer, so he stood up from the chair, bowed to the people around him, and then said loudly: "Listen to all, fellow villagers! Although our reputation as the Jinyiwei is not bad, he can't do anything to plot against him, Liu Da Jiao!"

"Besides, if we want to get dirty and frame the Jinyiwei, at least we have to get dirty and a very unforgivable crime of corruption. What's the matter with dozens of contracts for him to sell his body? It's not embarrassing enough!"

After Guan Bu finished speaking, the people around him nodded to show their agreement that the reputation of the Jinyiwei was from the Hongwu period to the Chongzhen period, and one hundred and fifty years later, it continued to the Holy Emperor period.

But it has to be admitted that although the reputation of the Jinyiwei is not bad, it will never attack the local genius and gentry like Liu Dashanren, because the Jinyiwei's targets have always been the big masters in the officialdom, and the big things they created are also big things such as rebellion.

Characters like Liu Dashanren may be a top-notch figure in the eyes of ordinary people, but if they are in the eyes of Jinyiwei, Liu Dashanren would probably not even be considered a stinky fish and rotten shrimp!

Grand Lord Liu felt a deep heart, and when the people around him also agreed with Guan Bu's words, Grand Lord Liu simply put his heart on his mind and gritted his teeth and said, "These contracts for selling their bodies are naturally true."

"However, adults can take a closer look. These contracts for selling bodies were signed during the Qianlong period. My Liu family also gave them real money and silver. It's not owed them."

"Although the emperor issued an edict after he ascended the throne, I, Mr. Liu, never regarded them as slaves. These contracts for sale are only kept at home and did not rely on these contracts for sale to ask them for anything."

"If the man doesn't believe it, you can ask these people who signed the contract to sell their bodies, except for him, Uncle Liu, who sells his fortune, how can he believe what he said?"

However, just as Chen Shengli, the leader of the Songjiang Prefecture Farmers Association, wanted to continue asking these questions about selling contracts, the inspector suddenly sneered and stopped Chen Shengli: "At the beginning of his ascension, His Majesty had already ordered that the Han family and the Han family be not be slaughtered as slaves. Those who sold their bodies as slaves would be given a favor by officials. If their own money was not enough to redeem their bodies, the local government would pay it on their behalf and repay it for ten years. If anyone who had kept selling contracts privately, it would be considered disrespectful. Doesn't Liu Daliang know the order?"

The magistrate of Songjiang County immediately stood up and bowed, "San Shanren Liu knew about this and responded first. There are documents that were personally banned by Shanren Liu in the Songjiang County archives as evidence."

The magistrate of Songjiang County was almost hating Liu Dashan, and at the same time, he was secretly grateful to the system set by the court that required notifications to everyone. It must be recorded. Local wise men and gentry like Liu Dashan, who were involved in it, must sign and seal it.

If it weren't for the document that Grandma Liu personally wrote, I'm afraid that Grandma Liu would be talking nonsense and would never admit that he knew this notice.

After all, sin without knowing and crime knowing the law are two completely different concepts. Once the fact that Liu Dashanren did not know this notice will be confirmed, the responsibility will fall to the head of the magistrate of Songjiang County. How can the magistrate of Songjiang County not hate it?

But when the magistrate of Songjiang County said this, Liu Dashan also remembered this incident.

Before he could think about it, Liu Dashanren argued: "The Caomin just wanted to leave these documents as a thought. It is indeed the villain's sin. However, the villain's family is not aware of it. I hope the great man will understand it!"

The Censor Ducha immediately laughed, looked at Liu Dashan and shouted: "Liu Dashan! These contracts sold are all documents from the time of Jianyi. You have kept them privately as your thoughts. I am afraid that you will not be able to see such documents in the future, but you are thinking about Jianyi!"

Before Liu Dashanren argued, Chen Shengli, the leader of the Songjiang Prefecture Farmers Association, continued to ask: "I ask you, have the more than 50 land deeds you have kept privately in your home as your thoughts?"

After being asked by Liu Shengli, Liu Dashanren didn't know how to answer for a while. According to what Ducha Censor just said, he collected the documents signed during the Jianyi period and thought about Jianyi. If he was to get the land contracts, wouldn't it be confirmed that he would give money to the deaf old dog family to summon souls?

Just as the Grand Sage Liu was thinking about how to answer this question, Chen Shengli continued to ask: "You sent the son of Liu Erbang to gather people and go to Qian, Li, and Zhang's house to set fire, what explanation do you have?"

The inspector also asked: "When I went to your house with my colleagues from the Jinyiwei and the peasant association to search, I found that your eldest son Liu Chuanshan and second son Liu Yuanqing had already packed up the gold, silver and fine materials. There were also these ruthless letters in Liu Chuanshan's study. What should you explain!"

After saying that, the inspector asked someone to take a bunch of letters to Liu Dashan, but it was Liu Chuanshan who wrote to some local geniuses and gentry, saying that he was about to go abroad and hoped that these people could help him collect letters from certain books. Some of the so-called books by Liu Chuanshan were basically books like "The Work of Heaven and the Work of the Bringing Things".

The inspector censor continued to shout, "Of course, no one stopped him, but he wanted to take these books to the Ottoman and the Holy Roman Empire. What explanation did you, Liu Dashi, explain? Could it be that you, you, did not know that Your Majesty has ordered the conquest of the Ottoman? What is the difference between the Lord's move and the enemy?"

The heart of the Grand Lord Liu completely sank into the bottomless abyss.
