“草民所言句句属实，句句属实！”刘姓家将则一边躲，一边继续高声叫喊，唯恐郑子明等人听不见自己的指控，“正月时奉命给辽国兵马带路的，正是草民。朱家给辽军提供粮草牲畜的账本，就藏在朱寨主的书房里。书房正中央那块地砖下面有个暗格，大人派人进去一搜就能找到。草民罪该万死，若是能拉着朱氏满门下地狱，草民心甘情愿！”
“冤枉——！”话音落下，众朱家的嫡系子侄们再也顾不上跟此人拼命，纷纷以头跄地，大声喊冤。
到了这种时候，郑子明怎么可能再被他们的谎言蒙蔽？立刻派人去朱寨主的书房里，按照刘姓家将刚才的指控，将朱家与辽国人做交易的账本给搜了出来。
有了账本之后，接下来的审讯，已经不用再费丝毫力气。知道自己难逃一死的朱氏子侄们，个个垂头丧气，对爪牙们揭发出来的任何罪行都招认不讳。而众爪牙们，为了那微茫的逃生希望，也将朱家过往所犯的所有罪行，都深挖细掀，力争做到毫无遗漏。
其中还有两名跟刘姓家将一样，原本将朱寨主当作恩公，愿意为朱氏一门肝脑涂地的死士，通过别人的举报，才发现自己这些年来居然一直在为仇人效力。顿时，恨不得将朱家子侄全都生吞活剥。主动爬到俘虏队伍的前列，知无不言言无不尽，将更多的关键罪证都揭露于光天化日之下。
夏天的暴雨，来得急，去得也快。当天空中又露出了湛蓝，审讯也进行完毕。按照刘汉国的律例，朱寨主和他的几个儿子，侄儿，外甥，都应该被判处凌迟之刑。郑子明没兴趣折磨人，干脆命陶勇带领弟兄们将这群罪犯一起推出了庄子外，全体斩首了事。
在朱家寨为虎作伥的爪牙们，大多数也恶贯满盈，陆续被推出寨子外问斩。只有少数几个刚刚被朱氏父子提拔没多久，还未来得及作恶的年青家丁，得到了赦免，被打了一顿军棍之后，释放回家。
至于朱家的女眷和一堆未成年孩子，陶勇和李顺儿两个建议斩草除根，郑子明却没有采纳。而是从缴获的朱家浮财中，分出了几车干粮细软给这批人，勒令他们离开寨子，去别的地方投靠亲友。
刘姓家将和另外两名被朱寨主害死的满门，却又当作猎犬收养的死士，按照所犯下的罪行，原本也在被处死之列。但是赵匡胤却怜悯这三人的身世，抢在宣判之前，站出来替他们求情。
郑子明对这三人的遭遇，也心有戚戚。沉吟之后，便赦免了三人的死罪，只是剥夺了他们历年所得，勒令他们也带着干粮和部分细软，离开朱家寨，与老婆孩子一道去投靠亲友。
谁料那三人侥幸逃得一死之后，却没有立刻回家收拾行礼。而是先结伴来到了庄子外，一眼不眨地看着仇人们个个身首异处。然后又跪在地上冲着自家父母坟茔方向各自大哭了一场。最后，则结伴走回了先前审讯他们的院子，跪在泥水里，大声喊道：“父母之仇，不共戴天！若非大人，我等一直到死，也是个糊涂鬼。根本没脸去见自己的祖宗和家人。大人之恩，我等无以为报。愿从此将这条烂命交给大人，无论是替大人挡刀挡箭，还是牵马坠蹬，都决不敢辞！”
“呵呵，居然是三个有良心的！”杨光义闻听，立刻笑着打趣。
“若不是有良心的，也不会被朱家给欺骗了这么久！”赵匡胤笑了笑，将头转向郑子明，低声劝告，“收下他们吧！他们今天所做所为虽然事出有因，却也绝了自己的活路。你如果不将他们留在军中，哪怕他们走得再远，半年之内，全家老小也会死于非命！”
“没这么严重吧！毕竟那是他们的父母之仇？”韩重赟不反对郑子明收留三个家将，却对赵匡胤的最后一句话，深表怀疑。
“没这么严重，当初你又为何劝子明跟乡绅们握手言和？！”赵匡胤笑了笑，低声反问。
他年龄比韩重赟长，阅历也远比后者丰富。后者到目前为止，依旧把发生于朱家寨的罪孽，作为一个特例。而他，却通过今天的审判，看到了一个群体的恶毒。
韩重赟被问得无言以对，只能讪笑着摇头。赵匡胤知道此人性情敦厚，所以也不逼着他接受自己的观点，将目光转向郑子明，继续说道：“他们既然奉命给辽国人带路，自然会在辽军当中，结识许多一样的奉命带路者。你按照这个线索查，从此事半功倍！”
“那，那岂不是真的要把整个沧州的士绅全都杀光？”韩重赟被吓得头发根根倒竖，赶紧大声出言劝阻。“小肥，朱家人残害儿童，罪有应得。但其他庄子，即便跟辽人有过瓜葛，也，也可能是迫不得已。你，你已经杀了足够多了，该，该适当收一收刀了！”
“正因为先前杀得足够多了，才不能现在收手！”赵匡胤看了他一眼，摇头冷笑，“子明今天有句话说得很对，这帮家伙，根本不配做士绅。杀干净了他们，才好重整河山！”
注1：与士大夫共治天下，最早起源于刘邦，而不是文彦博。文彦博只是对士大夫三个字，做了更明确的定义。
