Chapter 208: In a human society, the law is beyond the reach of the law!
May.
Two months have passed since the Xianyang earthquake.
In two months, a lot of things happened in Xianyang. In addition to the Huang family fraud case in March, which involved tens of thousands of people, the Huns also marched southward. In just a few days, they plundered several counties in the north. The court was furious when they heard about it, making Meng Tian
He led an army of 300,000 people to the north.
During this period, there were also a large number of changes in official positions.
but.
This has nothing to do with Qin Luoheng.
In the first month, he had been studying the laws and regulations in Lishan Mountain, and in the next month, he was working hard in Yueyang County, managing the fields given by the previous government.
In the past few months, I have become one with the people around me.
It's early summer.
The weather is gradually getting hotter.
A breeze blew past, and the green and yellow wheat waves undulated and made a rustling sound. The wheat in Guanzhong has not yet reached harvest time, but it is growing well and nourished by a lot of manure. Guanzhong's wheat harvest will undoubtedly increase a lot this year.
A young man was holding grass and bending over to loosen the soil in the field.
What he grows is different from others. Instead of wheat, he grows cabbage and radish. This young man does not look like a Guizhou head. He is tall and straight, with a strong body, a handsome face, and raised eyebrows, which makes him quite heroic.
It's just that the skin may have been sunburned too much and is slightly bronzed.
This young man is Qin Luoheng.
In the past two or three months, he gradually settled down. By reading the regulations over and over again, he had a deeper understanding of the Qin system. Then he walked out of Lishan and entered the fields. Through interactions with the surrounding Guizhou leaders, he gained a deeper understanding of the Qin system.
We also have a better understanding of the law.
Now he is more mature and calm.
Not far away, Guizhou Shou, who was wearing linen clothes, was bending over, looking at the slightly yellowed wheat ears, with a silly smile on his face. This year's harvest is good. Even after paying taxes, there is still more money than in previous years.
Quite a few.
Qin Luoheng did not look around him, but looked to the side.
In the past, few strangers passed by where he was, but today for some unknown reason, a few people suddenly came, but he had long since lost his mind to meddle in other people's business.
He only glanced at it for a few times and then withdrew his gaze.
aside.
Da smiled and said: "Parents, although the harvest in the surrounding wheat fields is good, the yield of the radishes and cabbages we grow is also very high. In a few days, I will bring these vegetables to Xianyang to sell them. They should be able to sell them at a good price, at least
The harvest is higher than that of wheat.”
Qin Luoheng nodded slightly and said in a deep voice: "There is no need to rush to harvest the vegetables in the fields. Let's wait for An to come back first. He took a lot of cabbages and radishes to Xianyang to sell them this morning. If nothing happens, he should be back soon.
, first ask about the sales situation before making a decision.”
"In the past, radish vegetables were classified as wild vegetables and were not taken seriously by everyone. It is unrealistic to suddenly want to sell them at a high price."
Qin Luoheng is very pragmatic.
A few months ago, he would have confidently said that these vegetables would be sold at a good price, but now, he no longer has this illusion.
The reason why five dishes are five dishes.
In addition to the high yield and the ability to sow seeds at any time, the main reason is the current dietary conditions. In this era when everything depends on cooking and supplies are extremely scarce, the cooking time of five vegetables is obviously shorter than that of other 'wild vegetables'.
And this is also the biggest advantage of Wucai.
If the cabbage and radish could not be sold at a high price, he would have no choice but to go another way.
Pickled pickles!
However, salt in the Qin Dynasty was very expensive.
Qin Luoheng rubbed his forehead and felt a little headache.
He thought too little at first.
Just when Qin Luoheng was thinking about how to sell the vegetables, the few people in front of him who were still walking around walked straight towards his field.
Qin Luoheng frowned.
The leader was a woman with a black cloth on her head.
After she saw Qin Luoheng, she knelt down and begged: "Dr. Qin, please save my beloved. My beloved really did not steal cattle."
Qin Luoheng quickly helped the woman up and asked, "Don't be impatient. Tell me about your husband. If he is really wronged, I will explain the situation to him."
The woman quickly told the story.
In February, a man named Mao was sent to the Yongxian County Court because his cow was stolen by the pavilion chief. After Mao admitted his theft, he bit out an accomplice named "Jiao".
This woman is ‘Shuo’’s wife.
According to this woman, she went to serve in Xianyang in January and served for a full month. It was impossible for her to steal cattle with Mao.
After the trial of He Ling Shi'Cho' was completed, he was directly sentenced to be Cheng Dan for tattooing.
The woman believed that her husband had been falsely accused.
Therefore, he wanted Qin Luoheng to seek justice for his beloved.
After listening.
Qin Luoheng frowned.
In March, because the Huang family was exterminated, he was immediately restored to the position of doctor, but the title was lost for some reason. He was still in Lishan at the time and did not know this. He did not know until he came down from Lishan.
The beginning and the end.
but.
He didn't really care either.
He knew that he was not qualified to be Doctor Da Qin.
Therefore, I have never been to the Academy.
He knew that he knew very little about the laws of Qin, so he wanted to go deep into the place to deepen his understanding of the laws. Then he told Ling Shichang his thoughts. It happened that the judge of Yueyang County was implicated in Huang's fraud case and was arrested.
After being dismissed from office, he became the temporary judge of Yueyang County.
In the past two months, I have watched many trials and corrected many unjust, false and erroneous cases.
Therefore, it is quite famous in several nearby counties.
but.
Half a month ago, a new official judge was appointed in Yueyang County. Naturally, he, the temporary judge, was laid off. Since the vegetables were harvesting, he resigned quickly and took root in the fields wholeheartedly.
But farming is really not what he wants.
If possible, he still wants to go up.
Qin Luoheng put down the grass in his hand and said in a deep voice: "What you are saying is: your husband did not conspire with Shiwu Mao to kill a cow, but he was convicted by the Yong County officials for conspiring with Mao and was sentenced to death."
Do you want to be tattooed as Chengdan?"
The woman nodded repeatedly.
Qin Luoheng asked again: "When was your beloved sentenced?"
The woman said: "Gui Hai in the second month."
Qin Luoheng understood.
He knew why this woman came to him. Qin's law stipulates: "If the disciples decide now, after three months, they are not allowed to beg for mercy." "It is said that Guihai was sentenced in February, and it is already the fifth month."
Month, there are only a few days until begging is no longer allowed.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! If you pass the three-month period, you will be directly 'confessed'!
but.
He is no longer a judge.
Naturally, I cannot come forward to advocate for this woman.
He pondered for a while and made a suggestion: "Your beloved's trial is in Yong County, which belongs to Neishi County. If you go up to beg for help, you will have to go to Xianyang, the imperial capital. Therefore, your beloved only needs to go back to the imperial capital within the specified time limit."
It is likely that the person responsible for 'reviewing his old prison' is the Tingwei Mansion."
"I cannot appear in court for you unless I am a judge."
"However, if what you said is true, your husband did not have time to commit the crime, so this case must be a miscarriage of justice. As long as the case is handed over to the Tingwei Mansion, the Tingwei Mansion should give your husband a reward after accepting it.
justice."
"But there are no absolutes."
"If you want to overturn the case, you have to find evidence to overturn the case."
"The evidence that constitutes overturning the case is to find the evidence of alibi, that is, to ask the Tingwei Mansion to obtain the relevant love letter of your husband's military service. As long as the love letter states that your husband was indeed serving in the army at the time, then this false accusation will
Then it was broken without warning."
"Secondly, find relevant witnesses and use these people to prove that 'Jiao' was indeed not present, or that 'Jiao' was not present when 'Mao' was holding the cow, or through the testimony of these people, prove that 'Mao' was there
lie."
There was a hint of hesitation on the woman's face, and she said worriedly: "The order and history of Yong County at that time followed the same process, but in the end my husband was convicted."
Qin Luoheng shook his head.
said:
"Tingwei Mansion is different from Yong County."
"The Tingwei Mansion has been experiencing a lot of personnel changes recently. Many of the officials in the Tingwei Mansion have just been promoted. They are not so bold. They made peace with the county officials as soon as they took office. Furthermore, the officials in the Tingwei Mansion have higher positions than the local magistrates.
Shi, they have no reason to protect local officials."
"You just need to ask your beloved to beg for help."
"As long as the case reaches Tingwei Mansion, your beloved will definitely receive a fair trial."
"If you are still worried, after I go back, I can write a letter to the officials I know in the Tingwei Mansion. Then your beloved will definitely be treated fairly."
Hear the words.
The woman nodded repeatedly.
Kowtow again and thank you again.
Qin Luoheng shook his head and asked Da to send a few people out.
When these people were completely gone, Qin Luoheng couldn't help but sigh.
He didn't know what this woman was thinking. She didn't want to listen to the advice he gave her from the beginning to the end. She just wanted to give a message to the officials of Tingwei Mansion.
They believe in relationships more than solid opinions.
Because I am an official.
It's a doctor!
This cattle-stealing case is actually a small case, that is, officials in Yong County engaged in malpractice for personal gain. They may have been beaten during the period, but as long as the person who was "falsely accused" kept begging for help and went to the next higher-level government, he could basically get it.
Get a fair hearing.
but.
Many people among the people are afraid of officials and do not dare to beg for help. They are also worried that officials at all levels will be colluding with others, so they are afraid to speak out. The reason for this is that the laws of the Qin Dynasty were not spread too widely or too deeply.
Most of the laws that the people know are the "Tian Law" and "Jin Bu Law" that are commonly used in daily life, such as the "Corporate Law", "Thieves Law", "Thief Law", "Prison Law" and other laws, and few people have understood them.
, so it is easy to be deceived.
If this is the case in Guanzhong, let alone the six places in Shandong?
To popularize the law in the Qin Dynasty, there is a long way to go.
In the final analysis, this is not a problem of the people, but a problem of officialdom.
To solve this problem, we still have to rely on the training and selection of officials. However, there is a shortage of officials in the Qin Dynasty. How easy is it to train so many qualified officials?
For a while.
Qin Luoheng couldn't help but think of paper.
He looked at the Weishui River not far away, with a flash of joy in his eyes. He saw a lot of hemp bark floating on the water, many of which had been soaked and turned white and soft.
at this time.
An, who went to sell vegetables in the city, came back.
With a solemn expression on his face, he walked quickly towards Qin Luoheng, almost taking three steps at a time, and within a dozen blinks, he appeared in front of Qin Luoheng.
He bowed respectfully to Qin Luoheng.
He said in a deep voice:
"Parents, I passed by Ji Que when I came back and saw a notice above."
"The censor of Huafu has been dismissed from office!!!"
