Rise From the Humble

Seeing Shi Chaobin's remarks in the closing speech, Wang Xueyi's face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot, and he became ferociously twisted. His teeth were gritting, the veins in his fists were exposed, and his eyes were filled with uncontrollable anger.

"Shi Chaobin, you deserve death!"

Wang Xueyi glared at Shi Chaobin ferociously for three seconds, gritted his teeth, stretched out his trembling hand with anger, and tapped Shi Chaobin three times, then angrily picked up the closing statement, turned around and walked towards the public office hall.

In an instant, Zhu Ping'an vaguely heard a burst of angry scolding coming from the inner hall, as well as Wang Xueyi's panicked explanation. After that, he could no longer hear the sound inside.

After about a cup of tea, Wang Xueyi walked backwards out of the hall.

After returning to the public office, Wang Xueyi went straight to Shi Chaobin, took out a fresh official document from his arms, threw it to Shi Chaobin like feeding a dog, sneered, and said with a very relieved expression, "Master Shi, you Don’t you know the law on the left and the law on the right? Congratulations, you have a stage to show off your skills! Taizhou Tongpan!”

Taizhou Tongpan!

This is like being demoted three levels in a row!

Stand and demote! ! Just because he offended the strict party, he was immediately demoted! What a speed!

You really can’t afford to offend the strict Party!

Everyone was in an uproar.

The evil of the strict party is lawless! Mr. Shi, I'm sorry. Zhu Ping'an hated the strict party and felt guilty for Shi Chaobin. Although Zhu Pingan also knew that even without his own advice, Shi Chaobin would not be able to escape this disaster.

"Hahaha, okay, with you here, I, Shi Chaobin, have long been unable to stay in such a place of arrogance, collusion, and corruption of laws and disciplines! Taizhou, where Confucianism flourishes, is the best in Huainan. I yearn for it and won't even think about it for a moment. No delay, farewell."

Shi Chaobin laughed heartily, put his hands on his back, and strode away outside the public office in a cool and carefree manner.

hehe

He was just demoted to Taizhou Tongxuan.

Shi Chaobin waved his sleeves, laughed and strode away.

The crowd watching the court trial spontaneously made way for this court trial official who insisted on justice and looked at him with reverence.

Seeing Shi Chaobin laughing and leaving gracefully, the guilt in Zhu Ping'an's heart was slightly relieved.

"You damn duck has such a tough mouth! Your intestines are going to turn green with regret!"

Wang Xueyi looked at Shi Chaobin's back, spat at him fiercely, and cursed bitterly.

The closing words cannot be changed. Firstly, there was no time, and secondly, in full public view, the closing words could not be re-drafted.

Wang Xueyi had no choice but to submit the closing statement that Shi Chaobin had noted to Xiyuan. However, before submitting it, Wang Xueyi asked the presiding officer, Minister of Criminal Affairs, He Ao, to make a note on the closing statement as the presiding officer.

The content is naturally nothing more than Yang Jisheng's crime of falsely transmitting orders and other crimes, and the evidence is conclusive and so on.

In the past, He Ao would have hesitated, but with the experience of Shi Chaobin being demoted to the third level, He Ao did not refuse Wang Xueyi's request at all.

After He Ao made notes on the closing speech, the closing speech was quickly sent to Xiyuan for Emperor Jiajing to preview.

While waiting for Emperor Jiajing's approval, the content of the closing speech had spread to every corner of the trial site.

When they heard that Yang Jisheng was found guilty of the crime of falsely communicating orders, deceiving the emperor, and falsely accusing a superior official, the onlookers immediately became indignant.

"Why should I judge Master Yang to have misrepresented the order? Where did Master Yang misrepresent the order? What order did he misrepresent?"

"The judge is perverting the law! He is perverting a good person!"

"Why don't you check the content of Mr. Yang's impeachment?"

"Why are you only trying Mr. Yang? Yan Song was impeached. Why not try him? He is the one who should be tried!"

"It's not fair! Let the heinous Yan Song go without trial, but wrongly accuse a good person! What kind of world is this?"

"The Strict Party is full of evil, covering the sky with one hand, blinding the Holy One above, and doing all the evil below. Why doesn't God send down thunder to kill these evil people?"

The crowds of onlookers were large and powerful, and they were not afraid of being reckoned with. Every word you said, and a word I said, merged into a tsunami of indignation, sweeping through the entire court trial scene.

Wang Xueyi couldn't sit still, and from time to time he strictly ordered officials from the Ministry of Justice to go down to maintain order and stop the onlookers.

However, there was a huge crowd of onlookers outside, and if these officers couldn't even make a splash, how could they stop it? Moreover, the more these policemen stopped them, the more indignant the masses became, and the tsunami became more violent.

What people want, what people say is fearful.

The tsunami of righteous indignation spread to the inner hall of the public office, and Yan Song and others inside heard it clearly.

"These stupid people, what do they know! Wang Xueyi doesn't care what he does for food!"

Yan Maoqing frowned and stood up to walk out.

"Jing Qing, sit down. It is better to guard against the mouth of the people than to guard against the river. If the river collapses, many people will be hurt, and so will the people. It is better to block it than to sparse it. When the Holy Spirit decrees it, these stupid people will naturally know about Yang Jisheng His true face."

Yan Song shook his head and spoke slowly.

"It's difficult. Even if the imperial edict is issued, I'm afraid these ignorant people will only say that Mr. Ge deceived the Holy One."

A white-haired official spoke.

This is Wang Cai, the director of the Imperial Academy. In fact, he shouldn't be here. He is just an official in attendance and should be sitting outside. However, Mr. Wang was old, it was windy and noisy outside, and he was too weak, so he asked to come into the inner hall. He is the director of the Imperial College, and is considered the vice-president. He is very senior, and the people at the door dare not stop him.

"What kind of advice does Mr. Wang have?!" Yan Song saw that Wang Cai seemed to have something in his words, so he raised his head and asked.

"Mr. Ge, please listen. People's opinions are so powerful that people's words can be feared. In my humble opinion, why don't you give Yang Jisheng a break? Otherwise, because of such an insignificant person like Yang Jisheng, you will be harmed." It’s not worth it if you’re going to be in disgrace for thousands of years.”

Wang Cai stood up tremblingly, raised his hands and suggested to Yan Song.

After listening to Wang Cai's suggestion and the indignant words of the people outside, Yan Song closed his eyes slightly, thought about it, and then sighed, "What Mr. Wang said is reasonable, even if Yang Jisheng is dead, he will die with me. However, I also pity him for his loyalty to the Holy One and the Ming Dynasty. I also want to intercede for him in front of the Holy One, asking the Holy One to forgive him for this incident for the sake of his foolish loyalty."

"Father, the family has family rules and the country has national laws. If there are no rules, there will be no rule. As the chief minister of the Ming Dynasty, how can my father interfere with the national laws because of his own selfish interests? Father must not have such private thoughts. Otherwise, father He has really become a power traitor in Yang Jisheng's memorial." Yan Shifan saw that Yan Song was trying to relent, so he shook his head and stopped him with a generous speech. After speaking so generously, he leaned close to Yan Song's ear and whispered inaudibly. , "If Yang Jisheng does not die, his father will never have peace."

After hearing Yan Shifan's stop, Yan Song suddenly woke up, glanced at Wang Cai faintly, and never mentioned letting Yang Jisheng go again.
