Chapter 915: Not Believe at all

Hatu was imprisoned in the Jinyiwei Prison, and commander Zhang Sheng quickly got the news.He also immediately understood that he could not make any decisions about this matter.

During the Hongwu period, the Jinyiwei had independent power to interrogate and arrest. During the Jianwen period, the power was deposed. Yonglechu restored all judicial powers again, and its main target was high-ranking officials and nobles.

But the Tatars caught today are members of the mission, so how could the Jinyiwei interrogate themselves?

Zhang Sheng thought about it and decided to report it directly to the emperor.

The Jinyiwei was responsible for guarding the Meridian Gate of the Palace, and the commander and others allowed to go directly to Fengtian Gate and be responsible for the post of the Imperial Gate.

However, Zhu Gaoxu basically did not work in Fengtianmen, so the generals of the Jinyiwei were privileged to enter the Rouyi Hall on the west side.

When Zhang Sheng came to the gate of Rouyi Hall, he found at least a dozen ministers were waiting at the gate, probably to discuss matters in this hall.

After he bowed his fists to the Lords, the eunuch Cao Fu came over and began to ask Zhang Sheng's reason.

So Zhang Sheng told the eunuch what the Tatar Hatu did first.

The ministers were all around, so naturally they heard it.

After hearing this, Hu Yi, the Minister of Rites, looked worried and complained: The Prime Minister of Tatar has already said that Alutai is willing to submit to his vassal.At this critical moment, why do you have any more branches?The Tatars have always been violent, why don’t you send people to take care of them?

Zhang Shengdao: The Tatar envoy moved into Huitong Hall, not a prisoner, so there is no reason why we should not let them go out.The last general also called the Beizhen Fushi to send people to follow him, but the Tatar named Hatu left the team privately. When we divided the manpower and went over, he had already done bad things.No one wants this to happen.

Zhang Sheng refused to admit it, but he felt a little upset.He was still careless about this matter and should pay more attention to it early and send more people, and maybe there would be no today's happening.

The two men were also talking about it.

It is said that human life is at stake, but the Ming Dynasty has a vast territory and it is not rare to have a case of death. Looking at the entire court, it is not a big deal.

However, this case involves border defense strategies, which everyone finds are a bit tricky.

If the death penalty of Hatu was ruled according to the law, would it affect the great event of Arutai's surrender?

As people spoke, Emperor Zhu Gaoxu walked into the courtyard. His steps were very big and his body still looked strong and powerful.

Everyone knelt on the brick floor and shouted, "Long live."

Emperor Zhu Gaoxu turned his head and made a gesture and said: I'm not giving up, everyone comes in to speak.When he spoke, he glanced at Zhang Sheng, but before he could speak much, he walked into the hall first.

Zhu Gaoxu took his seat behind his big table.Before everyone could talk about government affairs, Hu Yi asked Zhang Sheng to talk about the Mongolian affairs first.

Zhang Sheng recounted the previous words again.Hu Yi and others then began to discuss the pros and cons, each with their own reasons.

After a while, Zhu Gaoxu spoke, and everyone immediately turned to the upper hand and listened.

Zhu Gaoxu said coldly: Whether it is Yang Shiqi's son or the warrior of the Mongolian prime minister, it is natural to kill people.

Zhang Sheng suddenly noticed that the palace maid named Lian in the west sprinkled tea on several tables and was turning to look at the emperor.

Her eyes were filled with worship.

Even Zhang Sheng exhaled a breath and thought to himself: The emperor should make a decision and feel happy.

The hall suddenly became silent and extremely quiet.

Zhu Gaoxu's eyes stopped on Xue Yan's face, and then saw Gao Xianning and said: Gao Siqing will be responsible for handling this matter later.After Zhang Sheng went to examine the case, he followed the Ming Dynasty's law to severely punish the thief.

Gao Xianning stood up and worshiped Zhang Sheng: I will receive the order.

Another minister's voice said: The Tatar is sending Mahazi, and he will plead for the sinner on the condition of Arutai's surrender and receive the title.

Zhu Gaoxu said: It’s fine if Alutai doesn’t want to be banned.In a short period of time, the Tatars could not be sincerely obedient. I think they were just a temporary solution, so let's not give too much hope.Besides, do you believe that peace can be achieved through tolerance and kindness alone?Anyway, I don't believe it at all.Otherwise, the two million string-controlling men in the Ming Dynasty would simply take off their armor and go home to farm.

After hearing this, everyone worshiped: The wise and wise man.

Zhu Gaoxu said: The Ministry of Rites sent someone to comfort the victims, gave the funeral expenses and pensions, and said something nice. The surrender of the Tatars and the Wats is simply unreliable, so the dukes should take care of their own people first.

Hu Yi said: I will obey the imperial edict.

Seeing that most of the nine ministers stood in the hall, Zhang Sheng guessed that everyone was going to discuss military and political affairs, he clasped his fists and said: I will do the errands immediately, please leave.

Zhu Gaoxu waved his hand.

Zhang Sheng knelt down and kowtowed and thanked him, and withdrew from Rouyi Hall.

He arrived at the Meridian Gate and ordered his men to go to the house of the miserable, and give a confession and testimony.

Then he went straight to Hongwu Gate, found a Mongolian lieutenant, and entered a bureau room in the imperial prison together; then ordered Hatu to be taken out for questioning.

Because the previous dynasty was the Yuan Dynasty established by the Mongols, the Ming Dynasty was founded for decades and was quite familiar with the Mongols. There were even the most Mongolian soldiers and border troops who had surrendered for many years in the army.

After Zhang Sheng's question, even the translator's official did not need to be invited.

After a while, Hatu was escorted.Through the translation of the Mongolian sergeant, Hatu asked a question, are you going to let him go?

Zhang Sheng ignored it and asked directly: Did you break into a private house and kill someone today?

Hatu admitted happily, as relaxed as admitting that he hadn't taken a shower for a long time.

Zhang Sheng made a gesture, and a captain walked to Hatu with the confession written in two languages.

The captain grabbed Hatu's hand, pressed it in the small box, and pressed it on the paper.

Seeing this, Zhang Sheng said: After the trial, I will take it down.

Hatu asked through the Mongolian sergeant: Why don’t you let me go? I want to see Prime Minister Maerhazi.

Zhang Sheng frowned and looked at him and said: I can't see you, you can't live for at most three days.If you kill someone, you will be executed soon.

Hatu was in a hurry and struggled with the iron chain. Alutai wanted to reconcile with Mingguo. Don’t you want Alutai to accept the enthronement?Aren’t you afraid of restlessness on the border?

Zhang Shengxin was angry and said coldly: A few years ago, you Alutai were beaten and ran away everywhere, and the Khan was assassinated by a wrecked dog. You forgot it very quickly.I want to beat us to accompany you.

The lieutenants and soldiers around them all burst into laughter.

Hatu said again: You guys are bold!I want to see Prime Minister Ma Erhazi and Hu Yi.

Zhang Sheng clasped his fists and said to the north: The emperor said that killing someone is natural and righteous!take away.

Hatu was dragged to the door of the office. He was so anxious that he shouted: I will compensate ten sheep!

After listening to the translation, Zhang Sheng stared at Hatu with a fierce look on his face and said: Ten thousand sheep are useless, go to die.

After waiting for a long time, the lieutenant who went to the crime scene came back and received the confession of the victim's wife.

Zhang Sheng took another testimony and asked the soldiers of the Jinyiwei who arrested people today to sign and arrest them.

After collecting the three pieces of paper, Zhang Sheng got up and left, preparing to send them to Dali Temple in person, and the matter was finished.

...In the afternoon, a small riot broke out in Huitong Hall.

A group of Tatars were blocked in the gate.

They heard that Hatu was arrested, and at first said they wanted to meet with officials from the Ministry of Rites, and the guards claimed to invite them. Later, officials from the Ministry of Rites did not come for a long time, and the Tatars wanted to go to the Ministry of Rites to find someone on their own.

The Ming army guards were afraid that they would cause trouble, so they blocked the door and did not allow them to go out.

There are also envoys from many countries living in Huitong Hall outside the right gate of Chang'an, including Mantaya, Javanese, Zhenla, Siamese, Japanese, etc.

When everyone heard the noise, they watched the excitement at the entrance of their own yard.

At this time, Hu Yi, the Minister of Rites, finally came in person.The accompanying official persuaded the Tatars in Mongolian dialect.

After a while, the horse came out of the yard and scolded the Tatars.Then Ma Erhazi stepped forward and greeted Hu Yi.

After greetings, Hu Yi said: Among the Mongolian missions, a famous Hatu committed a crime at a private house in the north of Dazhongqiao at the beginning of Si pm this morning.If you break into a private house, you will travel three thousand miles; if you kill someone, you will be killed; if you beat the injured official, you will be killed.The evidence is undoubtedly conclusive. According to the Dali Temple, multiple crimes were punished and the car was broken.The leader was not strict in control of his subordinates, and he should have been punished; because the leader was a visiting envoy, our court was lenient and was exempted from it as appropriate to give it to the whole country.

Many people from all countries could understand Chinese language. When everyone heard this, there were more people coming out to observe.People all seemed to be watching how the Tatars ended.

Ma Erhazi lamented and said in Chinese: Hatu is a warrior. He failed to die on the battlefield, but was surrendered and dismembered in a foreign land. It is really regrettable.I asked Mr. Hu to report to the emperor, to give him a grace outside the law, to avoid his death, and to let his parents, wife and children meet.

Hu Yi bowed and said: This is what the emperor means.

Ma Erhazi said again: Hatu first arrived in the Ming Dynasty and did not understand the rules. He killed a commoner. Why didn’t the court put major matters first and treat me with sincerity?

Hu Yi said kindly: The nature and life of the Han people are not divided into scholars and common people, but they are all equally important as the imperial dynasty and the country, and they will never be killed. Even if the official killed the people, they will still pay their lives.This is not a life, but the promise made by the wise ruler and ministers to the 100 trillion tribes. It is fundamentally related to the country and cannot be compatible.I hope the righteous will understand that I will be sincere to the righteous. This fact cannot be helped by love.

After he said that, he looked at the horse and said, "Can we still go in and talk?"

After a while, other Tatars probably understood that the Ming officials refused to plead and started a quarrel at the gate of the Huitong Pavilion. Some of the Tatars were extremely angry and shouted something with their fists.

The official translated some words and told Hu Yi in his ear, and Hu Yi only knew the content.The Tatars demanded to return to the grassland immediately and stop peace talks with the Ming Dynasty, so as not to be slaughtered again.

Hu Yi had nothing to say, but he did not leave because Ma Er Hazi was still standing opposite him.Hu Yi calmed down and waited for Ma Erhazi's response.
