Huang Lin failed to withstand the attack of the old bureaucrat Wang Shuyue and obediently explained his acceptance of the donation.
Five hundred acres of land covers almost 90% of the village.
"Huang Lin came from Wangdian Village. After passing the scholar examination, he moved to the city. More than 500 acres of land is just one of the income. He is also registered in a carriage and horse racing company, and he can earn some money every year."
This man is so shameless!
Zhu Zhanji even looked at him sideways. You must know that a carriage shop is a literati doing business.
Fang Xing explained: "You have to know that there is an endless stream of such contributions, and those qualified literati will be picky. After all, they can't do too much to attract attention, so the one in Wangdian Village is considered to be close to the water. This is Cooperation benefits both sides.¡±
"It's just that the taxes were transferred to the Huang Lin family."
Zhu Zhanji deeply hates such methods. This is clearly a case of scholars competing with the state for taxes. Which dynasty and generation has this truth?
This is the implicit annexation of land, and after experiencing several famines, those farmers who cannot afford to pay the rent will naturally have no choice but to give the land to these scholars, and then continue to cultivate their own fields at a lower price than the tax, but in exchange for Just a tax-paying master.
But now how to deal with Huang Lin has become a problem. If it is handled according to the collection of donations, then Zhou Yi's death can only be attributed to the few villagers who took action.
This case is representative of all aspects of land donation, so Zhu Zhanji is also very cautious.
He summoned the six ministers of Jinling to discuss. The final question was whether the villagers who took action belonged to Huanglin or were natural persons.
If we admit that they are Huanglin¡¯s tenants, then we will recognize the legality of the donation.
It¡¯s hard to make a choice!
Zhu Zhanji and the monks were a little worried and angry!
Fang Xing is staying with Mochou, making toys by the way.
There were several small wooden animals placed on the ground, and Fang Xing was polishing them with fine sandpaper, rubbing them with his fingers from time to time. Mochou was sitting next to him, stroking her belly and smiling.
Fang Xing polished a pony, then put it on the ground and rocked it, and said to Mochou: "When I make a saddle again, it will be fun for the children to sit on it and rock it."
Mochou looked at Fang Xing¡¯s side face, tenderness suddenly surged in her heart, and then she touched her belly and said, "Your dad really likes you! He made a lot of fun things for you."
Fang Xing said: "You have to pay more attention to this child in the future. He will be sent to the academy from time to time That's all. It's unnecessary. When the time comes, go to the academy and say something, and then send a message to Fei Shi. Someone will escort you mother and son to the capital. . If you are not at ease, ask someone to report to me in the capital, and I will send a servant to pick you up."
There was worry in Mo Chou's eyes, and Fang Xing smiled and said: "I told you, it's up to you when the time comes. You may want to find another place to live in the capital. It's just convenient for me to visit your mother and son. Otherwise, if you go south and north, you How can I feel relieved?"
Mochou lowered her eyes, her eyelashes trembling slightly. She didn¡¯t want to go to Peking, but her child¡¯s future was not something she could decide alone
"Don't worry, it's cold in Peiping, but it's even colder in Jinling, and it's cold to the core."
¡¡
The mood swings of pregnant women should not be too great. After comforting Mo Chou, Fang woke up and went to Zhu Zhanji's place, only to see a depressed prince.
"What are you worried about?"
Fang Xing¡¯s hands were doing too much work and were starting to blister, so he wrapped a piece of cloth with ice and applied a cold compress.
Zhu Zhanji said: "Whether the blame can also be placed on Huang Lin's head, this is a headache."
Fang Xing thought about it and understood Zhu Zhanji's concerns. He flexed his wrist and said, "The rumor of cleaning up the donations has been out for a long time. Doesn't Huang Lin know?"
Zhu Zhanji slapped the table and suddenly realized: "Yes, Huang Lin made a mistake in this matter first, and delayed it by luck, and most of the farmers will ask him for instructions after knowing the news. So what did he do?"
Fang Xing said: "If he was abiding by the law, he would naturally persuade those people to take back their land, but he didn't. And what gave those farmers the confidence to dare to take action?"
Fang Xing¡¯s hint was very direct. Zhu Zhanji nodded, and then called someone to send a message to the Ministry of Punishment.
¡¡
Huang Lin felt that he was very unlucky. Collecting donations after winning the election gradually spread after the Hongwu Dynasty and became an unspoken rule.
But he felt that he was unlucky because the tenant farmers below killed the clerk who came to investigate, and he was regarded as a model.
What is the crime of collecting donations?
Huang Lin didn't think about it for a long time in prison, but he didn't panic.
How many people collected donations in the entire Ming Dynasty?
If it is serious, how will those involved in this matter panic?
And these people can be called the backbone of the Ming Dynasty - the gentry and officials!
After thinking about it clearly, Huang Lin seemed calm and unhurried when he went to court again.
Fang Xing came to observe the trial as a representative to express his concern for the deceased Zhou Yi.
"Bring your ID."
Wang Shuyue personally tried the case, so naturally he would not be like those officials.
Huang Lin was a little stunned. He didn't know what the so-called witness meant. When he saw more than ten people brought in, he couldn't help but be confused.
The subsequent questions directly made Huang Lin's heart drop to the bottom.
"Are you sure you've asked Huang Lin?"
"Yes, sir, I went to Huang's house at that time. After hearing what I said, the housekeeper said to ask Mr. Huang for instructions. When he came back, he said that it was Mr. Huang who said it. This was just a gust of wind, just for show. Let the little ones go back and farm in peace, and don¡¯t worry about it.¡±
"Later, someone from the government went to the village to ask questions. The children got scared and went to Huang's house again. The housekeeper still asked Mr. Huang for instructions and told him not to worry about it. No one dared to touch"
The old man who spoke was an old man from the village. He pointed at Huang Lin and said, "Finally, he saidif anyone from the government comes, just beat them out. Mr. Huang will naturally go to the Yamen to talk."
"The students were wronged"
Huang Lin hurriedly raised his hands and said, "Sir, these people are colluding to slander students. Please be aware of this."
The difficulty in this matter lies in the evidence, but Wang Shuyue did not look sad at all and sneered: "Bring his housekeeper here."
Huang Lin's body trembled, and when he turned around and saw his housekeeper being escorted in, his face turned pale.
There were no surprises, and no tough guys appeared.
When Wang Shuyue asked, the Huang family¡¯s housekeeper quickly confirmed what the villagers said, and then started
"Sir, last year Huang Lin asked the younger one to go to Widow Li's house to threaten her, saying that if she didn't send her daughter to Huang's house, her stall would be destroyed"
"There was also the year before last, when Huang Linrang was young"
""
Wang Shuyue blinked. It was not that he had little knowledge, but that he heard about the criminal record of an ¡®elite of the imperial court¡¯ in front of Fang Xing, the founder of science.
Huang Lin's expression changed drastically when he heard these "complaints", and cold sweat flowed down his face. He wiped his face with his sleeve, sniffed, and said seriously: "Sir, there is a naughty slave in the student's house. What this person said None of the students knew.¡±
Wang Shuyue just wanted to cover his face to show his shameless admiration for Huang Lin.
Fang Xing came to listen as Zhu Zhanji¡¯s representative, and it was time to speak.
"Mr. Wang, the evidence is easy to find. All you need to do is check where the money went."
When the housekeeper heard this, he hurriedly said: "Sir, all the money Huang Lin put in the dark cabinet on the south wall of the study, covered with a calligraphy and painting."
Fang Xing was happy when he heard this, and raised his eyebrows at Huang Lin and said, "Does Mr. Huang have anything else to say?"
Huang Lin was sweating profusely and said: "Sir, studentsstudents"
As long as you find the secret cabinet, this is ironclad evidence!
Wang Shuyue shouted: "Get him!"
¡° Then there was no suspense anymore. Wang Shuyue immediately characterized Huang Lin as someone who flouted the law and instigated farmers to kill people.
This crime
Fang Xing went back and told Zhu Zhanji about the trial process. Zhu Zhanji was helpless.
"Why are these people so bold?"
"Because they feel that they are superior to others and outside the law, they are naturally bold."
Zhu Zhanji frowned and said: "This trend cannot last long. If it is allowed to spread, in a few decades, the entire Ming Dynasty will begin to rot."
Fang Xing thought to himself: Isn¡¯t it? The power of the Ming Dynasty continued to decline as this group continued to expand and grow. By the time of Emperor Chongzhen, it had reached a point of terminal illness and was irreversible. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
