According to the laws of the Qing Dynasty, for a case brought to Beijing by Shuntian Prefecture, as long as the victim survived for thirty days and was not beaten to death on the spot, the Yin of Shuntian Prefecture would personally accept the trial.
Yuzhu had served as the Yin of Shuntian Prefecture before, so he naturally knew very well that the suffering master understood the laws of the Qing Dynasty.
Because as long as the governor accepts the trial, the lawyer invited by the victim will be qualified to speak in court.
"Come here, bring the accuser." Yuzhu is an important official of the imperial court, and he also has a reputation. Naturally, he cannot openly accuse others.
"Mighty..." The three teams of servants standing on both sides of the lobby vigorously poked the water and fire sticks in their hands to the ground while shouting and cheering in unison.
Not long after, a middle-aged man with a bloody buttocks was dragged to the altar by two servants.
"Pa." Yuzhu slapped the gavel tree and shouted sternly, "Who is here? Where do you live?"
Hey, the plaintiff and defendant are clearly written in the complaint. This is a show of authority by asking questions knowingly.
"I would like to report to Mr. Qingtian. My name is Cao Xiaoyi. His ancestral home is Yongning County, Henan Prefecture. He now lives in the capital. The people are illiterate. Please ask a lawyer. I also ask Mr. Qingtian to summon him to report on behalf of the people."
On the ground, his forehead was pressed against the floor tiles, and the white shirt on his buttocks was stained red with blood.
After seeing Cao Xiaoyi's performance and hearing these words, Yuzhu had an idea.
It was just two short sentences. Cao Xiaoyi not only said it reasonably and legally, but also had no flaws at all. It must have been taught by a lawyer.
"Come here, please invite a lawyer to come to the court."
Although Juren was not an official, he was already qualified to be an official, so Yuzhu politely said "please".
Soon, a young man wearing a topless official hat, black silk patchwork, and black official boots walked leisurely into the lobby with square steps.
From the condescending jade pillar, one could clearly see that although there was no top bead on this man's official hat, the chest of Buzi was embroidered with the training bird of a ninth-grade civil servant.
In the Qing Dynasty, the court gave special treatment to scholars, especially those who passed the provincial examination.
According to the system of official uniforms in the Qing dynasty, the imperial lords could wear official hats without tops and the official uniforms of ninth-grade civil servants, while scholars could only wear Liuhe hats and Confucian shirts.
The difference in status between a scholar and a scholar can be said to be worlds apart. The gap is so great that it cannot be compared.
"In the fifty-sixth year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi, student Huang Ying, who came third in the Shuntianfu Provincial Examination of Ding Youke, paid homage to Senior Kui Yuan." Huang Ying bowed to the ground with great respect.
So far, Yuzhu has held numerous important positions.
However, the decisive factor that really made Yuzhu Jian stay in the emperor's heart and rise to great heights was none other than the first place in the first class of Bingxu Enke and the title of Jinshi.
Manchus rarely have talented people who can read, so the Manchurian Jinshi is full of gold. What's more, it is not as good as the Manchurian champion who got six yuan.
At that time, the old emperor proudly despised the Han officials around him. How could he say that there was no one in Manchuria?
The ones who are praised are the young Manchu champions, Yuzhu and Yuzhenqing!
With the changes in official positions, the names of Yuzhu among the subordinates also kept pace with the times.
When Yuzhu was appointed as the Grand Bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion, he was naturally the Yuzhong Hall.
After the foreman's south study room, there is Yu Xiangguo.
Now, Yuzhu and Songzhu have been dismissed together, and they only have two positions, one civil and one military.
According to the logic of the noble man and the lowly military man, Huang Ying only praised Yuzhu's academic title as the number one scholar and did not mention the military rank of infantry commander, which was considered original.
"That's all. Come, bring a chair for Huang Xiaolian." Yuzhu followed the rules of the court and greeted Huang Ying politely.
If Huang Ying was just a scholar, he could only stand and talk to Yuzhu.
If Huang Ying really became an official, she would not be eligible for a seat because of the large gap in rank.
However, Huang Ying was only a candidate, but she could still have a seat in the court.
It must be admitted that the Manchu and Qing court's preferential treatment of scholars was indeed implemented and had clear institutional guarantees.
After Huang Ying sat down, seeing that Yuzhu was not looking at him, he stood up again, raised his hands and said to Daji Mu, "This student was entrusted by someone to defend Cao Xiaoyi against the second-class guard Zhang Jia Hada for invading people's fields."
, private shops...many illegal things..."
Yuzhu half-squinted his eyes and listened carefully to Huang Ying's words. Combined with the statements in the petition, he could basically conclude that the fourth child was short of money again.
On the surface, Lao Shisan seems to be doing nothing all day long.
In fact, he shouldered the heavy responsibility and racked his brains to secretly contact the middle and lower-level officers of the Infantry Army Yamen, Fengtai Camp, Zhili Green Camp and Rehe General Manager Yamen on behalf of Lao Si.
These days, if you want to maintain a relationship, it is obviously impossible without money to open the way.
Think about it, eating flower wine, promoting Pai Gow in a small area, the joy of moving into a house, the joy of marrying a wife, the joy of giving birth to a child, everything needs the lubrication of money.
Bound by historical conditions, Lao Si could rob a wealthy family without even recognizing his relatives, but he didn't know how to make money.
The fourth child was short of money, and like the ninth child, he used any means to plunder.
To put it bluntly, it is an open robbery that uses power to bully others.
However, what makes Lao Jiu better than Lao Si is that Lao Jiu knows how to do big monopoly business.
For example, after Laojiu monopolized rare specialties such as Laoshan ginseng from Changbai Mountain and animal skins from Heilongjiang, they took the opportunity to raise their prices by more than ten times and then resold them to businessmen in the south.
The fourth child and the thirteenth child don’t understand this.
Even if they understand, their strength is far inferior to that of the Baye Party. How can they have the confidence to establish a monopoly?
In fact, the Yuzhu's Universal Bank ticket number in Zhen's name also belongs to the nature of using power for personal gain.
It's just that Yuzhu is more open-minded and doesn't use his privileges to create a monopoly.
In other words, as long as there is money in the pocket, anyone can issue a ticket number. Everyone competes with each other, the fittest will survive, and they are willing to surrender.
To put it bluntly, if Yuzhu did not take advantage of his privileges to deliberately harass people, the merchants who issued the invoice accounts should be grateful.
Unless he drank too much low-quality liquor, who would dare to do anything to the Universe bank account?
Hehe, does that mean you have a long life?
The first court appearance of the governor after receiving the case was just to deal with a scene, and it was impossible to make a verdict in court.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After Huang Ying finished speaking, Yuzhu lightly ordered: "Come here, take Cao Xiaoyi to the government prison and wait for careful interrogation."
"Dajimu..." Huang Ying wanted to leave the jade pillar to avoid long nights and dreams.
However, after seeing Zhou Quan's gesture, the Zao servant standing aside shouted loudly, "Quit!"
"Best congratulations!"
Yuzhu stood up slowly and walked into the back hall in full view of everyone.
Huang Ying didn't dare to make a mistake, so she could only watch Yu Zhu leave.
To be honest, the traps set up by Huang Ying secretly were solved by Yu Zhu in a reasonable and legal manner.
Yuzhu was very honorable in inviting Huang Ying to the hall, and offered him a seat, and listened patiently to what he had to say.
Even if it reaches the end of the world, Yuzhu is already in an invincible position and cannot be blamed.
Even if she wanted to kidnap Yuzhu morally, Huang Ying had no point of exerting any force.
After sitting back in the signing room of the third hall again, Zhou Quan smiled and said: "Dong Weng, why are you so polite to that Huang Xiaolian?"
Juren, in the Qing Dynasty, was generally known as: Xiaolian.
Of course, candidates in the Qing Dynasty had to pass provincial examinations throughout the province, which was completely different from the Han Dynasty's filial piety and integrity system.
Yuzhu picked up the teacup, smiled slightly, and said: "Zhangjia Hada is the uncle of Lao Shisan and a second-class bodyguard. Cao Xiaoyi, a common man, dares to sue, and Huang Xiaolian dares to go out to defend the lawsuit. Hehe, there must be something fishy in it."
"
The laws of the Qing Dynasty are clearly written in black and white.
However, it is better not to believe in the Qing Dynasty's laws than to fully believe in the Qing's laws and understand them naturally.
These days, people's complaints against officials are still beyond the control of Beijing. Even if Cao Xiaoyi does not die, he will still have to shed several layers of skin.
More importantly, in the past, few litigators dared to take on cases involving bannermen.
The bosses and subordinates in the government hate the litigators who have the reputation and cannot be spanked at will.
If there were no litigants to cause trouble and the government officials with great discretionary power could judge whatever they wanted, how much trouble would be saved?
To be honest, the gentlemen in the yamen usually have more financial resources and want to save some face, so that's fine with them.
After eating the plaintiff and the defendant, the subordinate staff who felt comfortable and smooth with their food absolutely hated the professional litigators.
Because the litigators are trying to get food from the tiger's mouth.
The subordinate officials' black income has lost a big chunk. How can we not hate it?
Therefore, in addition to Shuntian Prefecture, litigators in various provinces have many precedents of being framed by subordinate officials, losing their honors, and even being imprisoned.
Shuntian Prefecture is different. The main reason is that there are hundreds of Qing gossip officials on the territory of the capital.
The public officials who are so idle every day are worried about having nothing to do.
As long as the officials are alerted, the old emperor can easily be alerted.
The old emperor was a typical example of being both responsible and established. No matter what he thought in his heart, he always emphasized the integration of Manchu and Chinese, and he especially respected scholars.
In addition, the government officials in the capital are generally of high rank. Both the plaintiff and the defendant like to hire a judicial officer to help them litigate.
If you ask a scholar to act as a litigant, you will lose most of your momentum.
"Dong Weng, my disciples think that when the water is not deep and the water is shallow, let's go to Wenzong's mansion for the time being and see the follow-up actions before making a conclusion." As a counselor, it is Zhou Quan's duty to put forward reasonable suggestions.
Yuzhu nodded and said: "There is nothing wrong with the rules on the surface. I have a feeling that this matter cannot be trivial."
Zhou Quan said confidently: "Don't worry, Dong Weng, the students will be handled properly."
If Niu Tai said this, Yuzhu would definitely not believe it.
However, Zhou Quan's mind is extremely meticulous. Since he followed Yuzhu, no matter how complicated the affairs were, he has never made any mistakes so far.
After leaving the government office, Yuzhu went to Cao Chun's side.
Under Yuzhu's eyes, Xiao Tiezhui memorized today's homework.
However, little Fu Peng missed the mark and stumbled horribly.
Yuzhu picked up the ruler on the desk and was about to give little Fupeng a complete boyhood.
The chief steward of the concierge suddenly came to report, "Master, the Thirteenth Master is here."
Yuzhu glanced at Xiao Fu Peng, who had an earthy face, and coldly ordered: "I'll write this down for now. If I still can't recite the book tomorrow, let's settle the old accounts and new accounts together."
After throwing down the ruler, Yuzhu stepped forward and went out to greet Lao Shisan.
