Before any public trial, "The White-haired Girl" must be staged.

The drama version, only in the case of insufficient manpower, allows missionaries to quickly learn this drama.

If there are enough people, it will be a big show, that is, the opera version of "The White-haired Girl".

In the early Ming Dynasty, Yuan Zaju was popular all over the country, and it was commonly known as Beiqu.

In the mid-Ming Dynasty, Nanqu tunes counterattacked, and Yiyang tunes, Qingyang tunes, Huizhou tunes, Taiping tunes, and Kun tunes became popular rapidly.

After the standard pronunciation reform of Kunqiang, it is known as "official tune", and all the pronunciation is in Mandarin. The rest of the dramas quickly followed up, and they also adopted Mandarin to speak, so the famous actors must be proficient in Mandarin.

At the end of Ming Dynasty, Nanqu ruled the whole country, and it was divided into southern tune and northern tune.

The northern accents are dominated by Xiansuo tune and Bangzi tune. Among them, the daughter's tune, girl's tune and Luoluo tune in Shandong and Henan provinces belong to Xiansuo tune. Qin opera has also developed and grown, and is classified as a branch of Bangzi opera.

Southern accents are dominated by Kunqiang and Gaoqiang. Among them, the high tune is a mixture of Yiyang tune, Qingyang tune and many other southern tunes.

The Southern Tune and Northern Tune came into being, and it is the ancestor of hundreds of local operas in later generations in China.

Shandong doesn't need too many performances, because the landlords and gentry can't survive. The land distribution will not be obstructed by the landlords. There are too many unowned lands. After the people get the land, even if the landlords have fields at home, how many farmers are willing to cultivate them?

To be honest, there are tens of thousands of acres of fertile land in Shandong, and they can only be left unused for the next year or two.

The Kong family is a different kind!

Heterogeneous people naturally need to be taken care of, and the missionary officers sent to Qufu, everyone can sing a big show.

They sang in a high tone at this time, and the people in Shandong could understand it.

The performance of "The White-haired Girl" has not yet finished, and the people watching the play are already boiling. Happiness is diverse, but sadness is always the same. The experience of the white-haired girl can also resonate with the people of Qufu. The master Kong here is countless Huang Shiren.

Some people cried and wailed bitterly, while others cursed angrily.

"Take the evil slave Kong Lin!"

There has long been a routine for the public trial conference.

To deal with local big families, the gentry cannot be tried directly. Because some gentry disguised themselves very well, and even had a good reputation, and all evil deeds were done by domestic slaves.

There must be a public trial of the evil slaves first, and then the evil slaves will bite out the gentry.

In the end, it will inevitably become a dog-eat-dog situation. The gentry and the evil slaves blame each other, completely igniting the anger of the people.

The house slave named Kong Lin was dragged to the high platform of the public trial, his legs were weak and he knelt down.

The mission officer held up a tin trumpet, pointed at this person and said: "Kong Lin's surname is Du, and he was originally a popi in Dongchang. A few years ago, the White Lotus Sect captured Qufu, and many of the Kong family fled. This Kong Lin took refuge in Dongchang." After killing Kong Yinmao, the Bailian Cult bandits perished, and Kong Lin followed Kong Yinmao back to Qufu... Please come to the stage to express your grievances!"

A young man was brought up, and immediately knelt down to the mission officer: "Kong Zhenxiang, a grassroots citizen, pays his respects to the official, and asks the official to make decisions for the grassroots!"

The mission officer said: "Get up quickly, Your Majesty has an order that the people are not allowed to kneel when they see the officials!"

Kong Zhenxiang thanked him and stood up, pointing to Kong Lin and said, "That's the guy! Caomin was originally the landlord of Qufu, but the Bailian bandits came, and Caomin's father and elder brother were all killed. Buried thousands of taels of silver. When the grassroots returned home to use it, they were followed by this guy. I don’t know where to get an IOU, and I borrowed silver from him in Dongchang. Poor God, when the grassroots fled, they only went to After leaving Dong'a, I have never been to Dongchang at all, and I have never met this person, so how can I borrow his money?"

The missionary officer asked, "What happened next?"

Kong Zhenxiang said: "At that time, Caomin was only fifteen years old, and he was young, so he quarreled with him and beat him with a stick. This guy pretended to have his leg broken, and conspired with Kong Xinglu to bring the lawsuit to the clan office. They listened and believed, sentenced me to repay the debt, and made me pay ten taels of soup for medicine. Caomin's mother was not willing to be wronged, and hanged herself to prove her innocence, but this man beat her down and said that Caomin's mother committed suicide in fear of crime!"

The missionary officer asked again, "Give him the money?"

Kong Zhenxiang's eyes were red when he spoke: "This guy gathered more than ten people and snatched away the money at night. The Caomin went to the clan's office to report to the official, but the clan's office urged me to pay back the debt immediately. The upper fields in the Caomin's house are all by the canal. Shangtian was used to repay debts, and it all fell into the hands of Kong Yinmao, Kong Xinglu and his son!"

Why is it that after the war and famine, Shandong has fewer people and more land, and there are still people who are deliberately plotting to seize land?

Because of the severe drought, the land far from the water source was abandoned by the landlords one after another. Those with power and power bullied others by taking advantage of their power and set their sights on the upper fields that could be irrigated!

The domestic slave named Kong Lin is nothing more than a dog that obeys orders.

"It's wrong!"

Kong Lin cried: "Master Guan, Caomin is a foreigner, how can he bully the landlords in this county? It's all at the behest of the master. Caomin only gets ten taels of silver for soup and medicine, and the reward afterwards is only two taels of silver. "

"Bring Kong Yinmao, Kong Xinglu and his son!"

An old man, a middle-aged man, was dragged to a public trial.

The mission officer asked, "Is what Kong Zhenxiang and Kong Lin said true?"

There are too many people who know about this matter, and the house slave has already confessed, so the father and son cannot deny it.

Kong Xinglu quickly said: "Master, my father and I were wronged too. My family only got 20% of the occupied Shangtian, and the rest was taken away by the clan."

The missionary officer shouted: "Bring the Kong clan and raise Kong Yinzhen."

Another old man was dragged up.

The missionary officer asked, "You have taken over 70% of Kong Zhenxiang's upper field?"

Kong Yinzhen sighed and said: "This incident was quite a big one at the time, the old man did take 70% of it, but later the second son of the patriarch's family took half of it."

A series of one, one question is a large series.

More than a dozen people were involved in the case of occupying Ueda alone. They were of the same family, and they really could do anything. They just bullied Kong Zhenxiang, both father and brother were dead, and the family only had a fifteen-year-old boy, an unmarried girl, and a widow whose husband died.

Pointing at the dozen or so people, the mission officer picked up the tin horn and shouted: "Who else has been bullied by these people? Anyone who has a grievance will come up!"

"I!"

"And I!"

"..."

Dozens of people stood up one after another, and were arranged by the missionary officer to go to the stage one by one.

Some cases are well known.

In some cases, there are hidden secrets.

Moreover, a case must involve a lot, and the number of people being tried on the stage quickly became dozens.

Anyway, as the evil things were told one by one, the people in the audience were already excited, and began to pick up earth and rocks and throw them at those bastards.

"Execution!"

The execution was presided over by the judicial system of Qufu County, and the whole process of the public trial was recorded.

More than 20 people lined up and were hanged with ropes on the spot.

These are involved in serious cases, such as murder, rape and so on.

There were more than forty people who were sentenced to hard labor and had to serve the government for five years without pay. During the service period, they are not allowed to settle down, not to share their fields, and all property is confiscated. Three generations of descendants are not allowed to be officials, nor to have a franchise business license. If you dare to commit crimes during your service, you will be exiled to Taiwan Island immediately.

"Good kill!"

"Master Qingtian!"

As the heinous criminals died one by one, the people also knelt down to thank them.

"Dad, what's the matter with you, Dad?"

Before the trial of Kong Yinzhi and his son, Yan Shenggong fainted from fright.

"With Kong Xingxie!"

Kong Xingxie, who was pinching his father, also fainted when he heard this.

Really dizzy, scared dizzy.

Because what he did, according to the judgment just now, must be a dead end.

"Da da da da!"

He rode a fast horse and rushed there, shouting along the way: "Your Majesty's order, Your Majesty's order!"

Mao Qiling, who was watching the public trial, changed his face slightly when he heard the words. Could it be that the emperor wanted to let the Kong family go?

After Mao Qiling received the handbook, he read it carefully, and then laughed loudly: "Haha, a true sage and enlightened king!"

Mao Qiling handed over the emperor's handbook to the judicial officials.

Judicial officials immediately re-sentenced. Of the more than forty people who had just been sentenced to hard labor, sixteen of them were commuted to death sentences.

This is the emperor, above the rule of law, one sentence can decide the fate of all people.

Even if a constitution is enacted in the future and the emperor is really pissed off, the emperor can forcibly violate the constitution. Zhao Han's constitution can only restrain the descendants, it is impossible to prohibit the descendants from doing things.

With Zhao Han's letter, Kong Yinzhi's death is certain, otherwise it would be really difficult to sentence him to death.

The Kong family in Qufu, one Yanshenggong, one patriarch, one patriarch, forty patriarchs. There were also their descendants and domestic slaves, and more than a hundred people were executed in public trials!

Kong Yinzhi, Kong Xingxie and his son were woken up by splashing cold water, and after waking up, they were dragged to hang to death.

Kong Yinzhi cried and said: "Don't kill me, don't kill me, I am the descendant of Confucius, I am going to Nanjing to see His Majesty... Wuwuwu, don't kill me, please, don't kill me! I have never killed anyone, and I even opened a warehouse to release food, and they did all the bad things... um... help... help..."

Yan Yingyuan looked at the corpses all over the ground, and couldn't help asking Mao Qiling: "The county lord, after killing so many people from the Kong family in Qufu, how will we face the world's scholars in the future? The reputation of a king may not be tolerated by scholars."

Mao Qiling said with a smile: "Which forest is the Confucianism? I, Mao, was thirteen years old when I was selected as a scholar, and I won the first place in Hangzhou Mansion. Confucian classics, not to say that I am proficient in them all, but I have also read them roughly. I read Confucian classics, I only see the word benevolence and righteousness. When I came to Qufu, I couldn’t see benevolence and righteousness. This is a place where filth is hidden! For the sake of Confucius, I will kill these people! As for what those rotten scholars said, fuck me Mao Shit. The last time I angered His Majesty with my words, His Majesty still let me be an official, so I know what to do. The monarch and his ministers are suitable, and there is such a monarch as there are ministers!"

"The county lord has seen His Majesty? What kind of person is Your Majesty?" Yan Yingyuan asked curiously.

Mao Qiling laughed and said, "You are a gentleman. It is not benevolence, but the people. When you are an official in the Datong court, you should know that the people are the first. If you govern the people happily, the emperor will be happy. You understand what I mean." ?"

Yan Yingyuan nodded: "Understood."

Mao Qiling said: "I am the county magistrate, and you are the magistrate. If we want to govern Qufu well, we have to work together. Remember, remember, everything is based on the people."

The two of them killed Yan Shenggong and more than a hundred members of the Kong family, no matter what the purpose was, they would definitely be famous all over the world.

However, what kind of reputation it is, I'm afraid it's hard to say.
