Chapter six hundred and fiftieth fugitives
Chapter 655: The Escaped Soldier
Huang Daozhou rubbed his sore forehead and was unable to say: "According to the law of the Ming Dynasty, Zhou Xian is not a sin that is unforgivable. He will not die. The dead are unjust first. Therefore, according to the law, Zhou Xian will be guilty for twenty years, and travel thousands of miles to vote.
Bar."
Ma Cheng praised in his heart that Yuan Gong's students were not frivolous. The case was well sentenced and the crime was convicted. The Ming Dynasty law came according to the Tang law. In addition to the ten evil sins, even if they were killed and set fire
, it can also be adapted based on the case. The Ming Dynasty law is still very reasonable, not the dogmatic and stereotyped laws of later generations.
The deceased is unrighteous, and the deceased is first taken into account. Unrighteousness is also a classic in the ancient law.
Ma Cheng felt that this Ming law was very reasonable and humane, and the law could not ignore morality. If morality does not exist, what is the meaning of the law?
Therefore, Huang Daozhou was extremely accurate in his judgment, so the plaintiff had nothing to say, so he had to bow and say, "Master, God," he said.
The defendant's lawyer was also satisfied and complimented: "Sir, wise."
The lawyers of both parties were convinced, and the two books and offices delivered their pens and ink to the hands of their neighbors. They were stunned again, most of them could not write.
Huang Daozhou had no choice but to say helplessly: "I agree with Liu Xing's painting circle, and I agree with the painting formula of the innocent release."
The twenty neighbors then bowed their heads and drew circles on the snow-white ripe rice.
It was already late at this time, and it was almost dusk, and the case was tried for one day.
The two clerks collected the votes of the neighboring group and handed over the votes to Huang Daozhou. Huang Daozhou put a stack of rice paper on the table and asked the two deputy examiners to check together to show justice and integrity. The two deputy officers
After hearing the scrutiny, he walked up and checked it carefully one by one.
Soon, three yamen runners and three Shangguans moved out from behind the screen wall.
Twenty neighbors and lawyers from both sides also lined up to go out and sat back. The people outside were already impatient and cheered up and looked inside.
Huang Daozhou lifted his official robe and sat down, saying majestic: "I am pronounced the verdict!"
"mighty!"
The hall was filled with power, and the water and fire sticks beat the blue bricks on the ground rhythmically, and the people who were dozing off were cheering up.
Huang Daozhou cleared his throat and said mutely: "After the neighbor group ruled, the criminal Zhou Xian was released without guilt and retired!"
Buzz!
Huang Dao Zhou lifted the hem of his official robe and left. The people watching inside and outside the county yamen exploded, and the boiling water boiled. Thousands of people watched the yamen run forward and untied Zhou Xian's feet and hands.
Zhou Xian was still sitting in a daze with an innocent look on his face. He didn't know whether it was a dream or a reality, but he was stupid.
There was an uproar and the people started to make a fuss, and the miserable family also jumped up and turned red with their eyes.
"unfair!"
"Unfair, unfair, I'm not convinced!"
"Give me a complaint, go to the Admiral's House to sue!"
The miserable family started to make a fuss. The yamen runners didn't care about that. They lined up with water and fire sticks to clear the scene. Huh, the people rushed out of the yamen, and the gate of the yamen slammed.
At this time, two books and offices walked out of the side door and posted a notice on the wall.
This triggered another earthquake. The literate person shook his head and read to the notice: "From today, all murders, major cases, and major cases will be handled in this way."
"Everything that is unclear and the law is not observed will be decided by the great neighbors."
Buzz!
Zhou Xian, with disheveled hair, walked out of the side door, and the people buzzed and exploded again.
Zhou Xian was dizzy, stepping higher and lower as if he was trapped in the clouds. He walked out of the county government gate in a daze, but was startled by the dark onlookers in front of him, and was shocked to make a cold sweat and wake up, and confused again. That day
He couldn't bear it anymore, so he drew his sword to kill people. The man who killed the man was the cousin of the Grandmaster's wife. He had already accepted his fate and made plans to pay for his life. However, he did not expect that the turn of the situation would turn, and Liu An Hua Ming came out of the prison without any harm.
The two yamen runners drove the people away and turned around and smiled, "Sir Zhou, take care of yourself."
Zhou Xian responded hurriedly: "Take care, take care!"
Passing through the narrow alley given away by the people, Zhou Xian felt aroused in his heart, took a big step back home, missing his beloved wife and son at home.
In the crowd, Zhang Shuizi, who was thin and vulgar, let go of the short blade and endured it before he could scream.
Zhang Shuizi was in a state of excitement and was roaring in her heart: "The Grand Marshal is wise!"
Slap, Zhang Shuizi slapped himself hard. The people around him had already started to make trouble, and no one noticed his incompetence.
Snake, Zhang Shuizi slapped himself again and cursed with ferocious hatred: "How dare you say in your heart that the general is not!"
"Stir you to death, the Grand Marshal is a godlike figure. He is so noble, how dirty it is as dirty as you think!"
Zhang Shuizi slapped himself hard, cursing himself in his heart, then squeezed away the crowd, quickly passed through the crowded streets, found a place where no one was buried, and hurried over mountains and ridges.
Returning to the army, I felt more and more uneasy. This time I was really a big mistake. I remembered Shangguan Macan's respect for him and his face turned red with shame. I just thought that it was not long before I could come out, so I shouldn't be noticed.
.
In the city, county government.
Ma Cheng sat upright, Lu Xiangsheng, Huang Daozhou, Chang's magistrate, and several new chief officials of the Three Laws were sitting in the lower heads.
Ma Cheng couldn't help but exhort a few words of advice. Zhou Xian was acquitted, but the impact of this case was far from over. The Three Laws Offices will inevitably become the target of public criticism and face huge pressure. In the Ming Dynasty, they wanted to do it.
Something is too difficult. Ma Cheng has long experienced it. The turtle's aura is of no use. The turtle's aura will most likely die without a place to bury it.
Huang Daozhou was a broken can and gave up. With Macheng on both sides, he would never even make people smash the yamen.
If Ma Cheng hadn't personally stood up for him and supported him, his three courts would not have been able to hold on for a day and would have been demolished soon.
At this time, Wei Chao strode in and whispered, the assassin of the Sixth Young Master's subordinates had left the city.
Ma Cheng still remembers that good man who uses Japanese swords, a good man who can get bloody swords. At a glance, he knows that he is a cruel character who urinates and kills people and robs.
Wei Chao said worriedly: "Why would you deal with this person secretly?"
Ma Cheng thought for a moment and said softly: "Let Can'er deal with it by himself. He is now the leader of the first battalion, so he should have some opinions."
Wei Chao frowned but bowed, bowed to Lu Xiangsheng again, and then floated away.
Liaoyang Front, Daying.
Ma Can kicked and hit the wooden stake in dismay, his fists and legs fell hard on the wooden stake, causing him to sweat a lot and panting.
Not far away, Zhang Shuizi, tied up in a large number of ties, knelt on the ground, and was under the supervision of several personal soldiers.
Chapter completed!
