Chapter 647 Zhu Pingan, do you know your guilt
Scars are the medals of a soldier.
The Court of the Ministry of Justice seemed to have turned into a show for Zhao Daying. Zhao Daying was shirtless and showed the scars on his back to everyone in various postures and shapes, just like a general returning home after a victory. , high-spirited and high-spirited.
Zhao Daying took in the shocked looks of everyone and raised the corners of his mouth with satisfaction, already winning.
My scar is my medal.
My scars will also become your crime, Zhu Pingan, in framing General Zhongliang.
Zhao Daying glanced at Zhu Pingan with the eyes of a winner, as if he had already seen Zhu Pingan being thrown into prison for false accusations.
"Master Zhao, why do you have so many scars on your body?" A military attache in the auditorium who had drank with Zhao Daying yesterday stood up and asked pretending to be curious, and suddenly asked about Zhao Daying In Ying's heart.
All the officials also looked over curiously, and Zhao Daying suddenly became the center of the entire court, attracting everyone's attention.
“This knife wound is seven inches long and one inch deep into the shoulder blade. It was left by someone Zhao when I went out to fight against the Tatars in Xuanfu in the 23rd year of Jiajing. At that time, the wind and sand were filled, covering The sky was dark, and I stood up to two Tatar captains by myself, killing one and running away, leaving this scar that goes deep into my shoulder blade."
"This gunshot wound is more than the size of two copper coins. It was left by me, Zhao, during the battle with the Haixi Jurchens in Jizhou in the 27th year of Jiajing reign. When I got up to kill the enemy, I accidentally went deep into the enemy's formation and was killed. A group of Jurchen cavalry surrounded me. When I was exhausted, I couldn't dodge and was stabbed. Fortunately, my life was saved by the war horse."
"The wound was six inches and six minutes long and more than three minutes wide. , It is more than five minutes deep. This was left behind by me, Zhao, when I was in Datong, China, and went out to the fortress with the general. The Tatars were cunning and their light cavalry broke up our army. I went out of the mountain and fought until the sun went down before repelling the Tatars. When I was chasing a Tatar captain, I was knifed. This knife almost killed me, Zhao. Fortunately, the emperor protected me and I lay down. It took seven days and seven nights to wake up.”
“This is also a stab wound, two inches smaller than the previous one. It was also left in the 27th year of Jiajing. The Tatars went to Datong to farm. I just recovered from my illness and went into battle, but my hands were rusty and I just cut down a Tatar wolf cub and failed again."
"This arrow wound was caused by the Gengxu Rebellion last year. I was ordered to lead my troops to pursue the Tatars. They were shot by a Tatar dog, but they were not spared even if they shot me, Zhao. I led my troops to cover them up and beheaded fifty-nine people.”
Zhao Daying was naked. He stretched out his hand and pointed at the scars on his arm, explaining in detail their length and size and the age of the injury. He explained the origin of the scars one by one like a treasure trove, and he was so impassioned that his saliva flew everywhere.
Zhao Daying told a thrilling story for each scar. The officials' blood boiled with excitement, as if they had witnessed the battlefield, as if they had seen a tiger general wearing a red armor charging back and forth among the enemy's army.
“Good!”
“Colorful!”
“What a great general!”
“Such a fierce general, he really was Zhao Zilong at that time!”< br>
"With General Zhao and such a bloody and brave tiger general here, why worry about the Tatars not being destroyed, and why not worry about the Japanese pirates not being eliminated!"
"General Zhao is really brave and powerful against ten thousand enemies. It is our great fortune to have General Zhao. If everyone is like General Zhao, then our Ming Dynasty will surely be defeated again "Seal the wolf and live in Xu."
Every time Zhao Daying introduced a scar, there would be a burst of cheers in the hall, especially the military attachés in the auditorium and all the officials in the hall. They were all shocked by Zhao Daying's scar.
Not only the strict party, but also the Li party, the neutral party, and all officials praised it unanimously!
It goes without saying that Yan Dang, even if Zhao Daying has no scars, even if Zhao Daying is a loser, they are still on Zhao Daying's side. This is their position.
At the beginning, officials from the Li Party and the neutral parties were somewhat biased against Zhao Daying. Zhu Ping'an's memorial to impeach Zhao Daying for killing a good man and taking merit was well written, shocking and bloody. It was shocking and pointed to people's hearts. They had just learned about the memorial. When I read the content, I was shocked and angry that there were such heartless people in the world
But now
After seeing the criss-crossed, centipede-like wounds on Zhao Daying’s back , but they said they looked at Zhao Daying with admiration.
Hearing is false and seeing is true.
Although Zhu Ping'an's memorial was well written, it was only written on paper. They did not see it with their own eyes. At this moment, they witnessed with their own eyes the criss-crossing knife wounds, sword wounds, and arrow wounds on Zhao Daying's back. Already shocked.
In my heart, I can't help but think of this wise saying left by my ancestors: Hearing is false, seeing is true. From this incident, they mastered this sentence again.
Even though the positions are different, even though Zhao Daying is a strict party. However, it cannot erase the fact that Zhao Daying is an unyielding general.
With so many criss-crossing scars, who dares to say that Zhao Daying is not a bloody and brave general? !
For such a brave tiger general, will he lack military merit? A fierce general who has been fighting for the country and the people for many years, will he chop the butcher knife on the people?
It’s completely unnecessary. He lacks military merit. He can just go to the battlefield and charge for a while. Why should he risk the disapproval of the world to "borrow" the heads of ordinary people, and besides, wave the butcher knife at innocent people? This is simply a great shame for the tiger generals, who don't bother to do this.
Zhu Pingan, what are you fighting with me for? !
Listening to the thunderous cheers and looking at the officials in the hall who were shocked by him, Zhao Daying could not help but raise the corners of his lips.
Strike while the iron is hot.
After Zhao Daying explained the scars, he immediately knelt down on one knee, his eyes full of angry tears, clasped his fists and asked the presiding judges in the courtroom to make the decision for him. His words were full of indignation and sadness: "I, Zhao Daying, Ying went to the battlefield before he was crowned, and fought for the Ming Dynasty for more than ten years, whether it was Tatars or Jurchens, regardless of the enemy. How cruel, I, Zhao Daying, never frowned once or even took a step back! However, in the end, I was accused of killing a good person and taking credit for merit, and I will not accept it!"
"The general does not seek promotion and wealth, but only seeks justice and washes away the unfair grievances of the general!"
"The sky is clear, the sky is clear. I have been fighting for more than ten years, but I have been accused of such a crime. I have no face to see my ancestors. I might as well commit suicide to prove my innocence, or go to Jiuquan with my innocence." The descendants of the ancestors.”
Zhao Daying spoke angrily, his voice getting louder and louder, and finally it was like a roar. His face was red as if he was filled with anger, and the veins on his neck were exposed. In excitement, he clenched his fists with both hands and slapped his chest hard, " "Boom, boom, boom" sound.
Finally, he grabbed the sword on the ground and wiped it on his neck.
If the Jinyiwei next to him had not acted quickly and stopped Zhao Daying, Zhao Daying would have killed himself.
This situation makes everyone sad when they see it.
Anyone who watched it felt unbearable, as if they felt the same, as if they had seen Yue Pengju die in Fengbo Pavilion.
"Pa"
The alarm in the courtroom was like thunder. Wang Xueyi, the Minister of Punishment, shouted sternly towards the courtroom:
"Zhu Ping'an, Do you know your sin?" (End of Chapter)
