The Record of Righteousness
Chapter 148 Dog
All the rebels of the White Lotus Sect were executed in the West Market, and all of them were beheaded. For a time, the whole West Market was a river of blood.
The leader of the thieves, Bai Yulian, was tortured with thousands of knives. Her beautiful and fair face turned into a blood-red skull. There was still some flesh and blood on her head, which was hung on a wooden stake for public display.
The heads of the rest of the civil and military officials of the pseudo-dynasty were displayed by the officials in the West Market for the people to see.
Let's talk about Wan Qing.
Wan Qing personally captured the pseudo-emperor alive, which earned enough face for the East Factory. He was promoted to the position of the thousand households in charge of the criminal justice by the court. For a time, he was naturally in a good position, and he had many followers.
As a result, the official positions of his subordinates naturally rose. Leng Tiancun and Li Guodong jumped from a small flag to a hundred households of the East Factory, and Long Shuo also changed from a lieutenant general to a hundred households, all under his command.
However, Wan Qing did not forget Huang Zunzhu's rebellion case. He reported Huang Zunzhu's confession and evidence signed by him to the Ministry of Justice.
During his tenure as the prefect of Huai'an, Huang Zunzhu colluded with the head of Gaoliu Town and many wealthy businessmen in the south, and smuggled grain and grass to the White Lotus Sect, amounting to hundreds of thousands of stones. Therefore, the White Lotus Sect had no worries about grain and grass in Shandong, and the government troops had no results in suppressing the rebellion for several years.
At this time, Huang Zunzhu had become a rat crossing the street. Even though he had some background in the court, his close friends in the court chose to turn a blind eye to such a traitorous case and did not dare to speak out for him.
After the trial by the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple, the main culprit Huang Zunzhu changed his confession on the spot and refused to admit to colluding with the White Lotus Sect, while his son Huang Zixuan confessed to colluding with the White Lotus Sect, and he also explained how his father traded with the White Lotus Sect, as well as the amount and time of the money and grain transactions.
Once the case was reported, it caused an uproar. The emperor was furious and ordered Huang Zunzhu and Wang Fuquan to be executed by slow slicing, their property was confiscated, their nine clans were exterminated, and their relatives and friends were demoted to slavery.
Only Bai Yiru, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Personnel, pointed out that there were many doubts in this case and asked the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple to re-examine the case.
However, in the face of the general trend, Bai Yiru was even slandered by some officials as an accomplice of Huang Zunzhu, and asked the emperor to dismiss him and investigate him.
At this time, Bai Yiru realized the seriousness of the situation, and wrote a self-questioning letter of up to 10,000 words to the emperor, and no longer defended Huang Zunzhu.
Afterwards, the officials of the Ministry of Personnel of the court seized nearly 100,000 taels of silver, more than 3,000 taels of gold, and 100 hectares of land in Wang Fuquan’s small mansion.
More than 500,000 taels of silver, more than 10,000 taels of gold, and countless precious antiques and paintings were confiscated from Huang Zunzhu's residence.
Three days before Huang Zunzhu was to be executed, the officials of the Ministry of Justice came to Wan Qing to ask for his release.
"Sir Wan, the emperor has issued an order to kill Huang Zunzhu's nine clans. I heard that his son Huang Zixuan is in your house. Today, the two of us are here to take him away from you."
Wan Qing asked the servants to serve the two officials and shouted:
"Dog, crawl in!"
After that, a male dog in the shape of a human hurriedly crawled in.
At this time, Gouzi had been completely trained as a dog.
He drooled, his hair was disheveled and covered with mud, and his limbs were lying on the ground, clumsily imitating the dog's every move.
Wan Qing stepped on the dog's head with his black boots and ordered:
"The soles of my boots are dirty, lick them clean."
"Woof woof!"
Under the surprised gaze of the two officials, the dog barked happily twice, raised his face and stuck out his tongue, and licked the soles of Wan Qing's shoes carefully.
The dog's eyes occasionally glanced at the two officials, with a trace of fear in his eyes. Wan Qing looked at him and knew what he was thinking. He smiled cruelly and said:
"Silly dog, how can you have no manners at all? How dare you look at people with squinting eyes."
Then he kicked the dog's thin face. The dog was frightened by the kick, and curled up in the corner with a hum and whine. Soon, a big lump swelled up on half of his face, and he cried out in pain.
Wan Qing kicked down, and his rather dissatisfied face turned into a proud one. He turned to the two officials and said:
"Are you satisfied with our dog?"
The two officials had never seen such a world before. They couldn't help sweating. They looked at each other and then flattered respectfully:
"Your Excellency has good means,"
"Come here."
Looking at the dog crawling slowly with a face full of fear, Wan Qing said slowly:
"These two officers are taking you away. The emperor has pardoned you."
"Awoo!"
The dog looked at the two officials in fear. He just heard what the officials said, and he didn't believe what Wan Qing said at all. After a bark, he ran out of the door and tried to escape.
"What a courageous dog!"
Wan Qing snorted disdainfully, put down the teapot, and when he looked again, he saw that he was holding a delicate tea lid of the teapot with two fingers, and raised it flatly towards the side where the dog ran away, and then flicked his fingers, and a cold light flew out of the air. The next moment, the dog screamed and fainted.
Gouzi had completely become a dog, just because Wan Qing had told him that if he was a dog, he had to do it in full. How could a dog talk or stand?
Gouzi had never said a word since then, and never stood up again. He huddled in the doghouse next to the vermilion gate of the mansion at night, and could only eat the leftovers of the family dogs and fight for food with other dogs during the day.
He was born into a family of officials, and now he had become a dog, so it was destined that others would step on him.
Even if he was treated as a dog and suffered the humiliation and abuse of the lowest maids and servants in the mansion, he still wanted to live a dog's life.
It's not that he didn't think about escaping. He escaped once, but because he was not familiar with the capital, and Wan Qing was now promoted to a thousand households, he was his eyes and ears in the capital, and he was soon caught by the servants of Wan Qing's mansion.
The angry eunuch Wan asked the servants of the mansion to clean him up, and threatened that if he dared to escape again, he would kill him.
Then the two officials thanked him several times and dragged the dog away.
In any case, Wan Qing knew that the roots must be cut, after all, he was a living example.
Three days later, Huang Zunzhu's family of more than 300 people and Wang Fuquan's family of more than 200 people were all taken to Xishi.
Huang Zunzhu and Wang Fuquan were executed by slow slicing, and the rest of their relatives were all beheaded.
