"In this case, I still have two small matters that need to be reviewed and settled." Mr. Huang patted the gavel and the surroundings became quiet.
"Have you brought the household stickers of Li Wencai and Li Xiucai? Well, now that you have brought them, let's see whose household sticker the cow is written on." Huang County Zun motioned to the book office.
The clerk hurriedly shook out the household sticker, held it up, turned it around, and said loudly: "According to the household sticker, the farm cow belongs to Li Xiucai's family!"
"You are the principal of Xiao Li Village. Each of these household stickers has your handprint and drawing. Come to think of it, whether this cow belongs to your family or Li Xiucai's family, the information on the household sticker must be good. The cows in these years have been
The tax is also paid by Li Xiucai's family.
"In the matter of farming cattle, I have made the following judgment: one farming cattle, together with the calf, belongs to Li Xiucai's family. Li Wencai claims that he and Li Xiucai's family raise a total of cattle..."
Huang Xianzun looked at the book office, and the book office hurriedly leaned over and replied: "Five years."
"In the past five years, because Li Xiucai's family also used cattle, Li Wencai rented the cattle from Li Xiucai's family for two and a half years. After that, the total..."
Huang Xianzun looked at the book office again, and the book office quickly replied: "Three and a half years."
"Well, taking the two together, Li Wencai rented Li Xiucai's cattle for a total of six years. How much does it cost to rent a strong cattle for a year in your area?"
This time, Huang County Zun looked at Li Shikuan and asked.
"The starting price for an old cow is two coins, and the minimum for a healthy cow is four coins." Li Shikuan hurriedly leaned forward to answer.
"Then four ounces of money, a total of twenty-four ounces of money. Li Wencai must deliver it to Li Xiucai within ten days.
"Secondly, Li Wencai, as an upright person, oppressed his clansmen and deceived his superiors and subordinates. According to state-owned laws, Li Wencai was removed from his position as an upright person and was sentenced to ten days of shackles."
Huang Xianzun slapped the tree again, looked at Li Shikuan and said: "The rest of Li Wencai's evil deeds were all caused by the connivance of your Li clan. For those evil deeds, you will decide according to the clan rules what crime Li Wencai should be punished for and what crime he committed."
After deciding what the punishment should be, let Li Xiucai write a report and show it to me."
"Yes." Li Shikuan bowed and agreed. Li Xuedong had already lost consciousness and hurriedly followed Li Shikuan and bowed.
Huang Xianzun came down from the high platform, waved to Li Xuedong, and explained to him in a low voice.
Li Yinzhu was so happy that she couldn't stand still, and jumped on the spot from time to time. Li Yuzhu called out "big sister", her throat got lumpy, and tears burst into her eyes.
Li Jinzhu stood upright, looking at Li Xuedong, who was talking to Huang County Zun, and stayed for a moment, then turned to look at Li Xiaonan.
Li Xiaonan held the arm of the second sister Li Yuzhu, but she still hid half of her body behind the second sister, looking at Li Jinzhu with twinkling eyes and smiling.
Gu Yan shook the folding fan from time to time, looking from Li Xiaonan to Li Jinzhu, looking at Li Jinzhu from top to bottom, and then from bottom to top, and looked at it carefully twice.
After Luxiu came to him, she asked him to inquire about her three sisters.
On the night when Luxiu was sold to the third uncle by the third uncle, the eldest lady rushed into the third uncle's house with a knife, hacked the third uncle and his wife to death, and cut her own neck.
This eldest sister is not simple.
Magistrate Huang explained Li Xuedong carefully, talked to Mr. Yao, and walked out of the town.
Gu Yan put away the folding fan in a hurry, followed behind Magistrate Huang, and followed.
After exiting the town, Magistrate Huang stopped and looked at Gu Yan behind him.
Gu Yan took off the curtain hat and handed it to Shi Gun. He took two steps forward and smiled at County Magistrate Huang: "I came from the capital and traveled here to watch the magistrate's trial. There are a few things I don't understand. Can you enlighten me?"<
/p>
"Don't take it as a word of advice, just say it." County Magistrate Huang said with a smile.
Gu Yan walked side by side with County Magistrate Huang and asked with a smile as they walked forward: "That Li Wencai has repeatedly murdered that young scholar. Why did the county magistrate only deal with the two things of the cow and Li Zheng's dereliction of duty?" "The evidence for the cow and the dereliction of duty is conclusive and must not be dismissed.
"As for the murder of human lives, it is indeed true, but we really need to investigate." Magistrate Huang paused, looked at Gu Yan and said with a smile: "Seeing as you are also a well-read poet, you naturally know that this dynasty is different from the previous dynasty.
All human life cases must be investigated in detail by the government officials. After the case is ascertained, the county will make a decision.
"In investigating a case, there must be witnesses and physical evidence. The case of Li Wencai's murder of Li Xiucai has not been solved yet. Where can we find physical evidence? As for the witnesses, those people were caught off guard just now and told the truth.
When the government official came over, Li Wengang and others must have been prepared. In the Li clan, Fengzifang and Shengzifang, where Li Wengang and Li Wencai lived, were crowded. It was hard to say whether these people would change their words when the time came.
Yes. Nine times out of ten, there is no evidence."
Gu Yan listened attentively and nodded slowly.
"This is one, and two, even if there are witnesses, the government official believes that Li Wencai intended to murder Li Xiucai, but Li Wencai didn't succeed, right? There is a big difference between succeeding and not succeeding. Secondly, Li Wencai was the one who tried to murder Li Xiucai.
Elders, and Li Xiucai are still in the fifth server. A murder attempt has not been successful. Should Li Xiucai be tolerant and write a letter to plead for mercy?
"If you don't ask, it means that Li Xiucai is too mean and not generous enough, which will be extremely detrimental to Li Xiucai's future career. Please, if this attempted murder fails, he will be exiled for five hundred miles. Li Xiucai will beg for mercy again, but he will be exiled for one or two hundred miles.
I came back in a year or two.
"Li Wencai is over 50 years old. According to the law, his sons and nephews are allowed to serve as punishment. Li Wencai has many sons and grandsons. It's just a matter of choosing one of them to serve the sentence.
"One thing cannot be punished twice. Since the government has tried and convicted Li Wencai for murdering Li Xiucai, the Li family naturally does not need to pursue it further. In this way, wouldn't Li Wencai be unscathed?"
"Now let their clan deal with the crime of Li Wencai's murder of Li Xiucai. In a month and a half, you can have someone come over to inquire and see how their clan handles it." Magistrate Huang laughed. Gu Yan listened attentively, laughed, bowed and thanked: "You have learned a lesson. Thank you, Lord County."
"I don't dare to take it seriously." Huang County Magistrate returned the gift with his hand.
Gu Yan said a few more polite words, resigned from County Magistrate Huang, got on his horse, and ran for more than ten miles with everyone guarding him. He slowed down his horse and waved to Wang Gui, who was following the team.
When Shi Gun saw Gu Yan summoning Wang Gui, he hurriedly slowed down his horse and signaled the servants to keep a distance from Gu Yan.
Wang Gui is the spy commander of his family’s prince, and what the prince and Wang Gui talk about are all confidential matters.
"Have you heard about the case just now?" Gu Yan asked Wang Gui.
"Yes."
"First, go find out the day when Li Xuefu and Li Xueshou knocked Li Xiaonan unconscious. Second, give me a three-inch long and one-inch wide wound on the heads of Li Xuefu and Li Xueshou. After they heal, the scar will also be
Can't grow hair."
"Yes." Wang Gui didn't even raise his eyelids, so he simply said yes.
His son-in-law would always send him assignments that were not very high-profile. Compared with the messy assignments he had done before, this one was too ordinary.
