The unjust case of the famous Yang Yuelou
Yang Yuelou is a famous actor in a Peking Opera class who is famous for his good acting skills, and he is praised for his Yuli Pavilion and literary martial arts. During the eleventh year of Tongzhi and the twelfth year, he performed in jinguiyuan, a famous theater garden in the Shanghai concession, and dumped the shanghai men and women generally Beijing tune non-preference only for coveting Yang Yuelou. In the winter of the twelfth year of Tongzhi, Yang Yuelou caused a lawsuit because of his marriage to a merchant woman. Yang Yuelou continuously performed dramas such as the Vatican Palace showing the love between men and women in Jinguiyuan, and a mother and daughter surnamed Wei, a tea merchant from Xiangshan, Guangdong, went to see Wei's female name Ah Bao Nian Fang Seventeen for three consecutive days, and they fell in love with Yang Yuelou.
After returning, he wrote a book detailing Si Mu's intention to be engaged to the marriage contract, and together with Nian Gengti, he sent someone to Yang Yuelou to meet him. Yang Yuelou was suspicious and afraid to do as promised, and Wei Nu became ill and became heavy. His father had been doing business in other places for a long time and had not been in Shanghai, and his mother, Shun Sui's daughter, had sent someone to inform Yang Yuelou, so that Yan Media concubine could propose marriage. Yue Lou went to see the promise, Qian Mediamaid had a marriage certificate, performed a dowry to betrothed and began to prepare for the marriage, but the matter was known to Wei's uncle and was firmly blocked by the etiquette of good and lowly, but withdrew.
Wei's mother secret merchant Yang Yuelou imitated the old customs of Shanghai to rob relatives, and Wei's uncle and the party gentry merchants in Huxiangshan township sued the official for the crime of abduction and theft of Yang Yuelou. Therefore, on the day of his wedding in his new residence, the county sent a messenger and patrolled to the Zhiyue Building and Wei Nu, and obtained seven boxes of clothes and jewelry for Wei's mother and daughter, which was rumored to have four thousand gold, and on the way to the public court, it was recorded that a small car was sitting in danger, telling the heavens and earth to sacrifice the ancestors' red clothes and still had not gone.

At the same time, Youling has always been regarded as a dalit, while the tea merchant surnamed Wei is not only a good family but also donates an official title, which is a certain status! Yang Yuelou, a merchant with small wealth and wealth, married the daughter of a good family in the form of a dalit who violated the law of etiquette for good and unmarried people, in addition, Wei Yang's marriage had the proper form of marrying a clear media, and the township party punished the official county officials for kidnapping and theft, and this kind of unconventional thing also aroused people's interest and thus a public opinion.
The last person to clarify the grievances in the case was Empress Dowager Cixi. However, the Yang Yuelou case was a confused decision.

Yang Naiwu and cabbage
At the end of the Qing Dynasty, Yang Naiwu, a shizi of Yuhang, was selected in the township examination and set up a banquet to celebrate. Tenant Ge Xiao's wife Bi Xiugu is quite beautiful, known as "little cabbage". She was originally the daughter-in-law of the Ge family, who had worked as a maid in the Yang family, and had an early love affair with Yang Naiwu, and it was difficult for her to become a family member because of her reputation, so she had to marry separately.
Liu Xitong of Yuhang Zhi County had been greedy for indiscriminately collecting money and grain, and was sent by Yang Naiwu to contact the disciples, cutting off the financial road and harboring resentment. His son Liu Zihe rapes Bi Xiugu with ecstasy and poisons her husband Ge Xiaoda to death. In order to save his son's life and vent his personal anger, Liu Xitong "transferred flowers and trees", tricked Yang Naiwu into going to the county court, tortured him to extract a confession, and decided to "plot a husband and rob a wife" and asked him to be a capital offense. Yang Naiwu, his sister Yang Shuying, and his wife Zhan Shi were dissatisfied, and repeatedly appealed, which lasted for two years and dozens of churches before and after, all because Liu Xitong dredged bribes from top to bottom, so that the officials and officials protected each other, they were still convicted of capital crimes and detailed by the Ministry of Punishment.
Zhan Shi was also detained for failing to file a complaint, but Wang Shiping, a member of the Imperial Examination, joined forces with the gentry to go to the Punishment Department to argue for grievances, and Xia Tongshan, a servant of the Punishment Department, rejected the detailed text and asked the three major constitutional councils in Zhejiang to be tried. In order to save her brother, Yang Shuying embraced her nephew to visit the provincial city and asked Xiugu to retract her confession according to the truth, and Bi Xiugu felt deeply guilty and immediately agreed. Who knew that In order to save his own face and the top son of many officials participating in the trial, Yang Changjun, the governor of Zhejiang, relied on the strength of Zuo Zongtang on the frontier to deliberately disobey the orders of the fantai and the zhaotai, and did not allow Bi Xiugu to retract her confession, and reverted to the idea of "adultery and murder".
Yang Changjun's move aroused the indignation of the gentry in Zhejiang, and Yang Shuying, with their support, went to prison to let Yang Naiwu write a complaint of injustice, risked his death to go to Beijing, and rolled nails to file a complaint. Emperor Guangxu's biological father, Prince Alcohol, hated Yang Changjun for scorning the imperial court, and fearing that the governors of the provinces would follow suit, decided to overturn the case on Yang Naiwu's behalf as a warning.
Just when Yang Naiwu saw through the dark officials and wanted to tell the world with blood and head sacrifices: "The people of the Great Qing Dynasty are looking forward to the blue sky", he got the answer of prince Shuo that "the great Qing has a green sky". On the day of his release from prison, Yang Naiwu witnessed Bi Xiugu being escorted to a nunnery to become a monk, and although he had saved his life, he was already disabled, and he was almost a wasted person, and he was not even allowed to restore his meritorious name, and he could not help but ask himself: "Is this unjust case of zhaoxue?" The Great Qing Dynasty has a blue sky?......" A song of injustice has been passed down for a hundred years, and the long companion hates to say that the blue sky!
Huai'an Qi case
In the thirteenth year of Qing Jiaqing (1808), the Huai'an flood, the government relief, Li Yuchang was ordered to Shanyang County to investigate the relief, living in shanyuan nunnery. Wang Shenhan of Zhixian County asked Li duo to open a household registration to fill his own pockets. Li did not comply, and Wang was afraid of the leak, and bribed Li Servant to poison Li Yuchang. The prefect Wang Hub was also bribed by Wang Shenhan for 4,000 taels of silver, and during the autopsy, he reported the case by hanging himself.
Uncle Li found blood from the relics, opened the coffin to see the poison, and went to Beijing to file a complaint. Shandong Fuzhen was ordered to review the truthfulness, so he detained Wang Shenhan and others to the Punishment Department for severe interrogation. As soon as the news was confirmed, Wang invaded and embezzled 23,000 taels of disaster relief, Tongzhi Lin Yongsheng 1,000 taels, and the remaining dozens of people were not equal. Wang Shenhan was sentenced to be beheaded, the prefect Wang Yi was hanged, the governor of Jiangsu, Tie Bao, and Tongzhi Lin Yongsheng were both dismissed from their posts, and the inspector of Jiangsu, Wang Rizhang, was dismissed from his post, and liuhe served, and Li's entourage was executed at Li's tomb Ling Chi Emperor Lao Erzhen was angry with the remaining 8 people who were given the responsibility of the migration staff. This is one of the four strange cases of the Qing Dynasty.
Zhang Wenxiang stabbed Ma Lie
After the defeat of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, people rumored that Zeng Guofan had ambitions, but in fact, his subordinates had already instigated him to seek the throne. During the battle against the Taiping Army, the Qing court had to rely heavily on the Xiang Army, but now that the Taiping Army was "flattened", she could allow Zeng Guofan to sit in the southeast of Jiangnan with a tiger lying in the southeast, and she was not at ease sleeping. So she transferred Zeng Guofan away from Jiangning, sent Ma Xinyi to be the governor of Liangjiang, and quickly dismissed the Xiang army.
Jiangning was captured by the Xiang army, and liangjiang had always been regarded as private land by the Xiang army, and they had operated there for several years, so how could they easily give it to Ma Xinyi. Ma Xinyi, who had not had his own army for decades, came to Jiangning alone, like entering the Dragon Pond Tiger's Den. When Ma Xinyi was assassinated, the imperial court knew in its heart that in order not to provoke a mutiny and shake the rule of the Qing Dynasty, it quickly transferred Zeng Guofan back to Jiangning to sit in the town. Since then, the throne of the Viceroy of Liangjiang has long been in the hands of the Xiang clan, and others dare not ask for help.
After the defeat of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the inferiority of the Xiang army was fully exposed, and they were even more ferocious than the bandits, and they blatantly plundered. After the implementation of the system of reducing courage and changing soldiers at the end of the Qing Dynasty, tens of thousands of Xiang soldiers and soldiers were dismissed, including many generals. These people did not return to their villages to farm, but wandered around and plundered. Some people participated in the Brotherhood, and some were originally members of the Brotherhood. The dismantling of the Xiang Army expanded the black forces, and the scattered soldiers and brave soldiers combined with the black forces and became a major public nuisance in society. Ma Xinyi was very severe in punishing the scattered soldiers, especially when he appointed Yuan Baoqing, who was known for his fierceness, as the chief of the battalion affairs office, and when he caught the scattered soldiers who harmed the people and committed illegal acts, he immediately rectified the law on the spot. The stragglers and the black forces hated him to the bone.
Yan Shizhang, who had given Sun Yiyan a voice, was quite scheming, and he wrote a "Diary of a Journey to the South", which recorded the whole process of going to Ningning. According to his great-grandson Yan Mugao, the diary read: "The horse stabbing case is related to the Xiang Army. "There are big men behind the horse stabbing case."
Zhang Wenshu assassinated Ma Xinyi and pounced on the heavily guarded governor's office. Immediately after Ma Xinyi was stabbed, there was a drama of the "thorn horse case" being staged, and it was the time of the township examination, and Yin Zhaoyong, a scholar and government in Anhui Province, came up with a test question, and even made a mocking remark; Qiao Songnian also came to join in the fun and wrote a crooked poem to testify, and the general of the Xiang Army erected a monument to Zhang Wen in detail, and so on. All of this shows that the horse stabbing case was a planned and organized political murder. From the implementation of the case to the strong cooperation of public opinion, as well as the meticulous planning of the trial and the shrewd design of the conclusion of the case, it shows that it comes from the hands of a high person.
