Chapter 1974 Two major pitfalls
Chapter 1972: Two major pitfalls
"Sir, the officials and families involved in the rebellion have all been arrested by General Qin Prosecutor."
Bao Zheng bowed and reported: "After the officials were interrogated and convicted, they could be sentenced at any time."
Jia Xu nodded at first, then seemed to remember something, and said meaningfully: "Bao Zheng, write carefully. After all, this is more than two thousand lives, not a trivial matter."
Bao Zheng showed surprise. He said that he was interrogating, but it was just a process. After all, the crime of rebellion was confirmed. No matter how careful the trial was, the result would be the same. At most, women and children could be exempted from death, but it would be the end of lifelong slavery.
Jia Xu saw Bao Zheng''s expression and knew that he didn''t understand what he meant. Of course, he was not going to say it clearly, so he said, "I don''t care what method you use, I will give him a month to try."
"This... the official should do his best."
Bao Zheng smiled bitterly, and his black face was even darker, and he always felt like Jia Xu was deliberately making things difficult for him.
Jia Xu said in his heart, Liu Bei, I have done my best to protect you. If you dare to break my plan, I will make you worse than death.
After Bao Zheng finished his report, Di Renjie stood up again and said, "Sir, how should we deal with the Sima family?"
After a little thought, Jia Xu sighed softly, "It''s hard to deal with."
Sima Fang, the head of the Sima family, was the earliest Qin and Wen gentry, and Sima Fang has always been loyal and conscientious, and has made great efforts to the development and growth of the Jin army. It can be said that he is the only remaining veterans of the Jin army. In the future, he may even compete for the governor and become a vassal.
The Sima family was originally a hard-core Qin faction, and the outstanding children in the family, such as Sima Lang, Sima Fu, Sima Cuo, etc., all went to the Qin army.
Who would have thought that Sima Yi, the second son of Sima Fang, who was hard-core and pro-Qin faction, not only got involved with the imperial party, but also personally participated in the coup.
This is not just a cheating father, but a cheating family!
Jia Xu even wondered whether Sima Yi was Sima Fang''s biological child, whether he was humiliated and abused by Sima Fang or other Sima disciples, so that he deeply hated his family?
Otherwise, how could he harm his family like this?
"Sima Yi rebelled. Did the Sima family participate?" Jia Xu asked.
Di Renjie said confidently: "The officials have checked it, no."
"Oh? Why are you so sure?"
"The Sima family has many children as officials, and more than ten people including Sima Fang, Sima Lang, Sima Cuo all came to our army.
After the Imperial Party launched a rebellion, Sima Cuo was even more a defender. If the Sima family really participated in the rebellion, it would be not just the North Gate that was lost. ”
Di Renjie is indeed right. Although he cannot thoroughly investigate the Sima family because of the war, he can only analyze based on the current information that the Sima family did not participate in the rebellion. This is just Sima Yi''s personal behavior.
But don’t think that this is Sima Yi’s personal behavior, it has nothing to do with the Sima family.
The blood relationship between Sima Yi and Sima Fang was not something Sima Yi could have unilaterally escaped, but rebellion was a serious crime that implicated the nine clans.
If this matter is handled according to law, the Sima family''s fate will definitely be the same as those rebel families, which will be to kill the nine clans.
But the difficulty lies in the difficulty. Sima Fang was a veteran of the Jin Dynasty. Not only did he not have any mistakes, but he made contributions.
All major families have many children. If one child breaks the law and implicates the entire Sima family, it would be a bit too unkind and easily disappoint the hearts of the officials of other families.
After all, if the Sima family can produce a Sima Yi, it is difficult to protect their family, and there will be no Zhao Yi, Qian Yi and Ma Yi. This is also why Di Renjie dared not make a decision easily, but instead came to ask Jia Xu for the reason.
Jia Xu secretly scolded Di Renjie for being cunning in his heart, and never looked for him when he had good things. He would make his decision when he had offended others. This was clearly intended to let him offend others!
This little fox.
Although Jia Xu felt pity for Sima Fang, he would not break his principles for him. After a little contemplation, he said, "First punish Sima Fang for improper discipline. He dismissed Sima Fang and his eldest son Sima Lang, so that he could reflect at home and not leave the mansion for half a step. He should deal with the Sima family when the lord comes back."
After all, Sima Fang was originally the Jin faction, and the Jin faction was the second largest faction of the Qin army. If the Sima family was really beaten to death, Jia Xu would be equivalent to offending the entire Jin faction.
Although Jia Xu was not afraid of revenge from the Jin clan, there was no need to drag himself into the water just because of something irrelevant.
Therefore, even Jia Xu is not good at dealing with Sima Fang, only Qin Hao can issue the final punishment.
"Sir, General Sima Cuo is also a child of the Sima family. Now it is the wartime stage. Do you need to dismiss his military power first just in case?" Di Renjie said again.
"No." Jia Xu waved his hand.
Although Jia Xu didn''t know much about Sima Chou, Qin Prosecutor found him shortly after the war and used his life to guarantee Sima Chou, saying that Sima Chou was both loyal and brave, and both civil and military, and would definitely become the cornerstone of the Qin army in the future.
There are only two possibilities that allow Qin Jian to guarantee an outsider with his life:
First, that person was Qin Jian’s illegitimate son.
Second, that person is indeed a talented man.
And Sima Cuo is naturally the latter.
It was also after this consideration that Jia Xu dismissed Sima Fang and Sima Lang and his son, but retained Sima Cuo''s military power.
This is actually a kind of comfort to the Sima family, but it weakens the Sima family''s clan line, but strengthens the division of Sima Cuo.
With the assistance of ministers such as Han Fei, Di Renjie, Bao Zheng, and others, Jia Xu quickly sorted out the mess in Luoyang.
After dealing with all the matter well, Hu Hai''s problem became a problem that Jia Xu had to face.
If it is really confusing to say that Sima Yi rebelled and harmed the Sima family, then Hu Hai, as a child of the Qin family, in turn, rebelled his own family, would be simply incomprehensible.
You should know that the imperial party accumulated strength to plan for several years, which only caused losses to the Qin army, but because of Hu Hai''s own fault, the Qin army killed 8,000 soldiers in battle.
One Hu Hai defeated eight imperial parties, and he did what the entire imperial party had not accomplished!
Rebellion is a serious crime to kill the nine clans. Hu Hai not only rebelled, but also surrendered to the enemy, causing the death of eight thousand soldiers in battle, which is even more serious. It is not an exaggeration to kill the ten clans.
But the key is that Hu Hai was born into the Qin family and killed the ten clans of Hu Hai. Isn’t it just to kill the ten clans of Qin Hao?
Could Jia Xu kill the ten clans of Hu Hai? It is impossible to think with your toes, and he doesn''t have the power.
Because Hu Hai alone implicated the entire Qin family, it is impossible not to punish such a big mistake. Hu Hai was not caught for the time being, so he could only punish people from Hu Hai first.
