Luo Yangxing sneered, and Shen Si angrily rebuked: "We are not thieves who rob homes and homes.
We are legitimate businessmen.
How can we be decent in killing people?
Besides, the current emperor is a sage.
He will naturally not accuse me unjustly.
You can rest assured and wait for me at home."
The official will let us back soon."
Luo Yangxing remained silent and watched coldly as the men made way for him.
He led the royal guards and walked out, saying to Shen Si: "You know what's going on."
Shen Si smiled bitterly and said: "Actually, we are just trying to make ends meet, and we are asking for the Lord's mercy."
Luo Yangxing smiled and said, "It depends on how well you behave."
Shen Si said: "As long as the officials have needs, the little ones will obey."
Returning to the Jinyi Guards, Luo Yangxing said to his subordinates: "Ask the confessions of these people.
We can use them tomorrow."
Cao Huachun waited for them to leave and asked, "Does Commander Luo want to make this matter bigger?"
Luo Yangxing sneered and said: "First they wanted to attack the factory guards, and then they sent people to kill people and silence them.
It seems that the low profile of the factory guards in these years has been looked down upon.
We are not going to make a big deal of the matter.
It depends on the court.
Judge it.
Shen Si did what he said.
When asked for a confession, he told everything truthfully and asked: "Does the official need a little perjury to help the official kill him?"
Jin Yiwei Xiaoqi said with a smile: "This is not necessary.
This fact alone is enough to make them busy.
Moreover, if you perjured yourself, something will go wrong when you are asked in court, which is not good."
The next morning, the factory guard took the file to the Nanjing court and sued Wang Tu, the Minister of Rites in Nanjing, Zhang Wenda, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel in Nanjing, Zheng Sanjun, the Minister of the Ministry of Husbandry in Nanjing, and others for allowing their subordinates to use various means to defy the national law.
He evaded taxes, and later led people to attack the factory guard and bribed the murderer to kill and silence him.
At the same time, in newspapers, Daming Weekly reported this news at great length.
It not only described the case in detail, but also conducted a questionnaire survey below.
Anyone who answered the questionnaire could get a gift from China.
A pack of cigarettes and a box of matches.
Gifts can be collected with questionnaires at local agricultural cooperatives or factory guard stations.
The questionnaire was divided into three parts.
The first part asked senior officials from various ministries in Nanjing whether they should be removed from their official positions if they participated in such behavior.
The second part asks whether, in addition to being removed from official positions, how should these people be held legally accountable.
The third part is to ask whether you have confidence in the Nanjing Court to hear such a case.
Why?
This survey was a great success because there was the temptation of a pack of cigarettes and a pack of matches, and agricultural cooperatives have many distribution points, so the questionnaire response rate reached nearly 60%.
The results of the investigation were published in the next issue of the newspaper.
Ninety-nine percent of the answers in the questionnaire were that he should be removed from his official position and held legally responsible.
As for the third question, only 35% of the people have confidence that the Nanjing Court will hear the case.
The reason is that they believe that the court will do its duty and try the case fairly.
However, 65% of the people believe that officials have always protected each other, and it is very difficult for judges to perform their duties.
And the most important thing is that many people believe that wanting the court to try officials will make judges fearful and dare not really try the facts based on the facts.
When Wang Chengen reported the investigation results to Zhu Youxiao, Fang Congzhe said: "Then remove them from their posts first, and then hand them over to the court for trial."

Zhu Youxiao asked: "For what reason?"
Sun Chuanting said curiously: "They broke the law.
Isn't that the reason?"
Zhu Youxiao shook his head and said: "If they are deprived of their official positions because they broke the law, what will the court do?
The court is to determine whether they participated in such an incident.
Only when the court determines that they have broken the law can I deprive them of their official positions." their official positions."
Sun Chuanting thought for a long time before he understood it.
He asked uncertainly: "Then if your Majesty wants to deprive an official of his position, will he have to go through a court trial?"
Zhu Youxiao smiled and said: "This is different.
I can remove an official because I don't like his method of governance, I can remove him because he is mediocre and incompetent, I can remove him because he married a brothel girl or even because he doesn't smile well."
But if he is removed from office because he has broken the law, a judge must determine that he has indeed broken the law before he can be removed from office. " Only then did Sun Chuanting realize that His Majesty's investigation of tax evasion in Jiangnan was also accompanied by the establishment of the authority of the court.
Or perhaps, His Majesty was originally planning to establish the authority of the court.
Xu Guangqi praised from the side: "Your Majesty is wise, since there is a law, we must abide by the law.
This is the way to govern the country in a dignified way."
Naturally, the ministers were not flattering.
Zhu Youxiao said: "Okay, okay, I know what the ministers mean.
I am not a fool yet, and of course I will not take away my position just because others don't smile well.
Let's wait for news from the south."
The court received the evidence handed over by the factory guard.
Feeling panic, it hurriedly reported to Dali Temple in the capital and asked Dali Temple to send someone to try the case.
Wu Rendu, the Minister of Dali Temple, replied: "The case occurred in Nanjing.
This is originally the jurisdiction of the Nanjing Court.
You can try it yourself.
We will just send an auditor judge to hear the trial."
The president of the Nanjing Court was Wang Yaliang, the former Shaoqing of Dali Temple.
Although his name contained the word Yaliang, he was an upright official, so Wu Rendu gave him the second most important court of Dali Temple.
After receiving Wu Rendu's reply, he smiled bitterly at Chen Yincong, who came to hear the trial, and said, "This can be regarded as rushing the duck to the shelves.
There is no way out, only to do it."
Chen Yincong and he were Jinshi in the same subject, and they had a good relationship.
Hearing what Wang Yaliang said, he smiled and said: "Brother Yourong, don't you think this is a good thing?
We have always wanted to revitalize Dali Temple, and now His Majesty has handed over this case to us, which just allows us to put the majesty of the law into practice."
Showing this will make Dali Temple and courts at all levels a force that people cannot ignore in Ming Dynasty, and let everyone act in accordance with the law.
I think this is a great good thing. " Wang Yaliang gritted his teeth and said, "This is not against Dong Lin, but against the violation of the law.
I plan to resign after hearing the case to avoid being criticized."
Chen Yincong said: "Before coming, His Majesty told me that those of us who enforce the law are most afraid of having preconceived ideas.
We only try to judge the violations of the law by officials and citizens, and have nothing to do with party affiliation."
Wang Yaliang knew that this was what the emperor had sent to him.
He had been worried that after he tried the case, the result would be favorable to Donglin and the Emperor would not like it.
If the result was not favorable to Donglin, other Donglin people would attack him.
As a Shandong native, he was really in a dilemma.
Now that the emperor said this, he was asking him not to consider party matters and just uphold justice.
In this way, even if it was not in line with the emperor's wishes, he would not be blamed
