The talk is smooth 25 years (1845) , the Zhang Jiren of one's previous experience of a successful candidate in the highest imperial examinations will to badge city know government office to allow to go up, just do to hand over matters concerned, the proposal that because the each other of attributive problem accuses cemetery,meets two last names. Browse dossier, discovering this is Cong Jiaqing 19 years (1814) contend for bring a case to court with respect to what happen, had had 30 up to now old, because do not have contracted writ, have successively held the posts of so know government office to be able to be not solved, because this knows you home newly to allow every time, party can accuse.
Party of arraign of Zhang Zhi government office, discover accuser is an old skilful writer, nowadays have been person of many years old 70, hunch, anility, wear a patch pile the shabby long gown of the patch, really " the condition of poor and pedantic but Ju " . Zhang Zhi government office thinks: Scholars of such a poor and pedantic, can ground of work with perseverance contends for bring a case to court to be in cemetery 30 old, this place cemetery is opposite most propbably he is very important, nowadays is dusk year, come travel-stainedly still government office Ya brings a lawsuit against, should be bad luck of negative Qu Han.
See the accused again, it is an elegant teenager, beautiful money bought a government office to know to hold together, wear 5 taste an official to take, jauntily, none awe-stricken appearance, let a person see feel detest. Zhang Zhi government office thinks: One can spend thousand silver to buy the person of official title, in the home should not impoverished, why should tangle to death with scholar of a poor and pedantic sodden hit the ground to contend for one hill is in grave? What says geomanticly? Is or underground is buried is there treasure?
According to common sense, official other people and civilian common people engage in a lawsuit, have the local official of integrity a bit, the metropolis is partial and civilian common people, because await upright in those days not the strong point of A makes, has main moral character hits despot namely, act on so: Always the official contends for bring a case to court with civilian person, sentence civilian person to win the lawsuit surely; The person that always have a scholarly honour and official rank contends for bring a case to court with the person that do not have a scholarly honour and official rank, the person that sentence name of have rendered great service surely loses a lawsuit; Always despot and small civilian contend for bring a case to court, sentence surely small civilian win the lawsuit; Always wealthy person contends for bring a case to court with the person that do not have money, sentence wealthy person to lose a lawsuit surely. Look in these officials, the official, person that have a scholarly honour and official rank, despot, wealthy person is overmatch, have natural advantage, if deflection they, with respect to meeting inequity, also can get of public opinion censure. As the official, say your official corruption takes bribes, bureaucrats shield one another, or only despot, wealthy person follow sb's lead. This case old skilful writer of a poor and pedantic, contend for cemetery with official other people, say this manages the value of cemetery normally, namely a few silver, one can spend thousand silver, buy government office to tell held person together, how can be this trifling tens of cemetery of two, with scholar of a poor and pedantic, hit lawsuit of more than 30 years? Old skilful writer is destitute, this a few silver are right for him, it is undoubtedly a kind gigantic produce, the contention that its fling caution to the winds, also be excusable. So a such rich official other peoples, are why bother and a poor scholar contended for produce? Give him a few silver, also cannot calculate what tickler, why hard conflicting 30 years, do not agree to let half minutes?
Taking a variety of suspiciousing, zhang Zhi government office begins to interrogate, quiz first accuser. According to offerring: Old skilful writer is called Huang Fang to come, this place cemetery is ancestral grave, from before bright when the cemetery that has been oneself, bury a Zu Liezong that has oneself, have in family tree " the crow spills landform 4 grave " say. Jia Qing 18 years (1813) , king of this locality despotic gentry builds high bully others on the strength of one's powerful connection or position, with oneself it is official other people, bully Gu of situation of his home deficient, forcibly occupy cemetery, in order to bury its father. Huang Fang will refuse to obey, come the county accuses, this county is a name with doing not have contracted writ, do not grant to accept, huang Fang will be forced to accuse to government office Ya, have successively held the posts of adult telling seat of government to cannot adjudicate on quite. You consider old person, I do not cross a poor scholar, except suffers Qu Han loss, how dare engage in a lawsuit with official other people, will to law court confrontation frequently? Still hope Zhang Zhi government office is done advocate, break return cemetery, in order to bring the soul of a Zu Liezong. Zhang Zhi government office says: You say Wang Jiangao bully others on the strength of one's powerful connection or position, forcibly occupy the cemetery of your home, can ever you cross the line that solve with its consult? If he gives you a few silver, whether can be you accepted reconcile? For Huang Fang: Say what cannot betray quite to ancestor cemetery is absolutely normally, but ancestor belongings descendants is defended, descendants incapacity, without with fare, betray ancestor producing also is common thing, if he gives price is reasonable, the student wishs to take ancestral grave change, accept what often Your Excellency to reconcile.
Zhang Zhi government office asks respondent again, according to offerring: The accused is Wang Jiangao formerly, it is Wang Lanting now, it is Wangjian Gao Zhizi. Wang Jiangao once had allowed to tell seat of government in Guangxi, because of Ding You return to one's native place buries grandfather, be come to by sly unripe Huang Fang block, say this cemetery is the ancestral grave place of his home. This cemetery is my home clearly, yellow Fang Laiming shows a graph to go back on one's word, father with his willfully make a trouble, drive out its, just bury grandfather. Different fizzles out to just come unexpectedly sly control a county, after that sly accuse seat of government, lawsuit was hit 30 old, father is furious nevertheless, at dying 3 years ago, only low duty should appeal to nowadays. Adult you think, my home for generations is an official, the home has fertile land to count just, building 100, also the cemetery that not worthwhile goes to grabbing scholar of a poor and pedantic. Said again, the official other people of tassel of for generations hairpin, first ancestor it is the famous person that has thick mind, how can bury the cemetery in others, is is this pair of row Zu Liezong great and irreverent? Children and grand children still has why on earth of appearance Yin Yan Huo! It is his malign good person clearly, still ask adult to do advocate, punish severely malign sly apprentice, for old father redress an injustice, accuse comfort the in the day spirit of a Zu Liezong.
Zhang Zhi government office says: Since you are other people of for generations official, be full of belongings again, give him some of silver, make concessions to avoid trouble, be good? Wang Lanting says: This character needs old person, this ancestral grave if of his home, low job goes some of money what to calculate, the problem is this ancestral grave be my home, bury my Zu Liezong, put in business problem far from, by what do I give him silver? Is this abet Diao Feng? Said again, if I give him money, be equal to those who admit this cemetery is his home, he if with this for the name migratory graveyard, my row Zu Liezong is met be insulted, if I do not make him migratory and sepulchral, he coerces me necessarily with migratory graveyard, want money again, low duty will how?
Zhang Zhi government office listens, ask: Cemetery conflict both sides does not have conclusive evidence, so can the witness is card?
Huang Fang answers back and forth: The accused with home village or town of despot bully and oppress, nobody dare be card. The student is impecunious, ask factitious card without money again.
Wang Lanting refutes: Often Your Excellency, the fact is not such! I ask a witness, huang Fang comes not allow, saying is I spend money buy factitious certificate, because this has successively held the posts of adult telling seat of government not to allow low duty to bring testimony of a witness, it is to fizzle out to just come clearly blackguardly, do not allow other to be card, be not without the witness.
Zhang Zhi government office says: Huang Fang will family tree is card, does your home have He Wei card?
Wang Lanting says: Those has family tree to be by, I also have family tree to be card. Tell on chart: ' curtilage right by the 4 grave inside the ground ' , should be this ancestral grave. You consider old person! His home crow spills landform 4 grave, does this crow have fixed dwelling place? My messuage is right by the ground, it is fixed place, does how could have a holiday?
Zhang Zhi government office says: You 2 people are told justifiably, you have family tree to be card, he also has family tree to be by, but family tree is your ancestor place is made, how can you be card? Home Wang seeks factitious testimony nowadays, home Huang says beautiful money asks person witness, the witness' testimony of course cannot enough count, and Huang Jiayou does not have a witness, be to do not have testimony of a witness so! You do not have contracted writ twice nowadays, have family tree only, how to undertake decide? Look can come out the dead in graveyard please only attest! Let them talk about family tree to indicate He De. If do not remove graveyard, this case cannot adjudicate on. If remove graveyard, your row Zu Liezong is couldn't get again quiet. How can this be good? Such! You go back first, wait for this government-owned appear in one's dream and make a request to list Zu Liezong at yours, ask they are what meanings! Say to be retreated alone hall, let former, the accused go out to wait.
Former defendant indissolubles greatly, lawsuit hit 30 years, all previous classics know a county countless times, tell seat of government, had not come up against this kind of hear a case, this is what hear a case! Living person pays no attention to, go asking a the dead however, the the dead won't be verbal, saying is appear in one's dream and make a request, it is eyewash simply!
Although former, the accused does not believe Zhang Zhi government office can careful bright this case, but also be to not be at ease, so leave no stone unturned hits your home of explore Zhang Zhi doing. Discovering Zhang Zhi government office is make a great show of being in earnest really, it is unexpectedly in government office Ya fast of Buddhist monastic discipline 3 days, town god's temple migrates to lodge later. This kind of act, make former, the accused feels strange not just, the person that always hears of, all without exception feels adult telling seat of government is to installing a god to play dirty trick, also do not block their curiosity of course.
The following day in the morning, former, the accused goes to transmit orders of Zhang Zhi government office together graveyard hill goes oyer, the person of city of whole seat of government knows to knew government office to hold a dream in the palm, do not know what to dream of, before following, go to, come vast and mightily to graveyard hill, really " if the person that watch is blocked up " .
But see Zhang Zhi government office lets a person place next desk desks at sepulchral edge, all surrounding annulus of the person that watch stands in all around. Transmit orders of Zhang Zhi government office takes former defendant, say before everybody face: I already the dream lists Zu Liezong to yours. They say to there is host oneself in this grave, but do not tell this official right now, should be this official is told today. This official thinks, does your row Zu Liezong say lie? When in the morning, listen to you to list Zu Liezong to say: ' since adult wants to conclude sepulchral attributive, why to make him do 2 people pray in the worship on bended knees before ancestral grave? If not be his ancestor, he cannot come again quite in the future ancestral grave offers up a sacrifice. ' you 2 people are ancestor with the withered bone in graveyard nowadays, once conclude, the ancestor that cannot be you again quite later. You preexistence undertakes take leave of before this is sepulchral today, await this government-owned tomorrow decide!
Hear piece of word that tells seat of government, old skilful writer fizzles out to just nod saying is, obsequious, and face of Lan Ting criterion shows the king that government office tells to hold together appear to be reluctant, whacker is not willing. Zhang Zhi government office also does not permit their argue one's case, command their lot is divided early or late hold a memorial ceremony for is done obeisance to.
Huang Fang of old skilful writer will be caught do obeisance to first, rise hastily, the carelessly before coming to grave has been done obeisance to, fall back on is watched at the same time. Wang Lanting rises before coming to grave, touching gravestone, genuflect cries greatly in the cry loudly on the ground the ground says: The person that it is descendants, cannot arrive again quite later before grave sacred ancestor. Our home in order to list Zu Liezong's cemetery, come with Huang Fang lawsuit 30 one's remaining years, father dies because of this, unworthy descendants I engage in a lawsuit then even. Know government office to Your Excellency not to divide green red black and write nowadays, dream of bewitching of by means of, want absurd to add decide. Row ancestor lists Zong Zaitian's spirit, beg you to protect me, if break my home, this is the blessing of descendants, also be the blessing of a Zu Liezong. If cannot break my home quite, bade farewell with row Zu Liezong from now on! Injustice! Injustice! Say volt to go up, weep bitterly, also stand not to rise again.
See this state, zhang Zhi government office stands rise, side with watched people loudly say: Who does not have an ancestor? Who does not have descendants? If be the ancestral grave of others, hold a memorial ceremony for cannot come again quite after, he can such sadness? The world does not have such truth! You see the circumstance of ancestral grave of take leave of of this 2 people, it is really false, should look clearly, still come with this official judgment?
Watched people in chorus hallooes: Old person emperor bright! Need not you say, we understood. Say to mock old skilful writer to fizzle out to just come, in succession denounce his deficient and shameless, poor and break heart, regard the ancestor of others as unexpectedly oneself ancestor, if such doing, if do not allow his may you be the last of your line, that is ghosts and gods unidentified! If make him complacent, that ability is blue sky does not have an eye!
See everybody mocks snarl, government office face about is opposite Zhang Zhi for Huang Fang of old skilful writer: This is everybody the thing of be obvious to all, also be everybody's sensible thing, what view do you still have?
Right now Huang Fang comes is to be full of shame, be forced genuflect is on the ground kowtow offer an apology, entreat Zhang Zhi government office to carry high expensive hand, avoid at punish sb for his crime. Zhang Zhi government office sees state, rebuke at once for Huang Fang: You are a poor scholar originally, to be in cemetery, accuse others with respect to accuse falsely " despot forcibly occupy " , thinking is deficient and rich contend for, cheap and expensive contend for, feudal official is met assist poor and lowly person, it is Diao Min really, the hit 30 years lawsuit of your work with perseverance, think total meeting has a muddleheaded official, adjudicate on cemetery at you, you can lend cemetery blackmail of Xiang Wanglan booth, accurate of channel of little imagine weather, person what is not had do not have Xiao in person, not be oneself is close ancestor, its love is not true also, this official adjudicates on, can establish contract again, other cannot again with contention, punish severely otherwise do not borrow. As to the scholarly honour and official rank of the member that be born that Huang Fang comes to, this official waits for details report to learn politics, will stripping change, also do not allow you to endanger home village or town again.
This action of Zhang Zhi government office, it may be said is with one action 3. It is the name that earns deities, did not expend what energy, contend for bring a case to court the case end a case of 30 one's remaining years; 2 be in the public eye, also won't be pointed to to call bureaucrats shield one another, depend on despot, from which easy gains, more earn clean-fingered name; 3 because understand thoroughly favor,be, "Teach in order to apply candidly, shen Mi with sincerely machine " , taught the people already, also earn work Shen Mi's name.
