Chapter 277 Rejection(1/2)

In the eyes of the angry and almost insane people, everyone in the Li family, including good and bad, old and young, must die.

Public opinion is like a knife.

This knife can hurt people and kill yourself.

All Huang An has to do is hold the handle of the knife and prevent the tip from pointing at the wrong person.

Now, he suddenly felt that facing the naked gaze of so many people was not so scary anymore.

The common people who could hear Huang An's voice made a fuss for a while, but no one really made any noise.

They already have basic trust in Huang An who suddenly appeared.

In just a short moment, three heads of the Li family, plus Huang An, was the mastermind of the public trial.

For these two reasons, Huang An has initially gained the trust of the people.

What is said will never compare to what is done.

In this regard, the people are still wise.

His risky and decisive behavior achieved the desired results.

"I wonder if you fellow villagers would agree?"

No one responded, so he continued shouting:

"Maybe yes?"

Huang An's voice was loud and his roar was hoarse, as if his throat had been scratched by a barbed wire tennis ball.

But the common people did not find it unpleasant at all. Instead, they found it much more pleasant to listen to.

This kind of voice makes them naturally trust.

However, the common people have no one to speak, and there are only a few people who can take the lead.

Just when Huang An was secretly anxious and ready to change his words, two sharp voices suddenly came from the crowd.

"We promise!"

"promise!"

One on the left and one on the right, the two voices were also very loud.

Moreover, Huang An's ears felt familiar.

The person who arranged it before finally worked.

And just when these two voices fell, the sound of responses one after another shook the clouds away again.

Huang An breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.

Done!

Today's crisis has been resolved by 70%.

There is still the finishing work left, which is to fulfill the promise to the people.

He put down his raised right hand, turned around and walked in the direction of Zhao Yan and Luo Feiyao.

"Sister!"

Huang An yelled and wanted to smile, but the blood scab on his face had condensed, holding back the smile he was about to put on.

"Lord Luo!"

Therefore, he nodded to Luo Feiyao and the people standing behind the two women as a greeting.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the situation is under control.

Most of the solemn and worried expression on Zhao Yan's face has disappeared.

She quickly walked forward and stood beside Huang An, "Why are you here? It's too risky!"

There was blame in his tone, but more of it was worry and concern.

"However, it's lucky to have you, otherwise we wouldn't know what to do?"

While Zhao Yan was speaking, a pair of starry eyebrows were firmly placed on Huang An's face.

At this moment, her eyes were full of admiration and love.

This is the first time that Senior Sister Zhao has shown such a look of admiration like a little fan girl in front of Huang An.

Huang An was enjoying himself while talking.

He chuckled and didn't answer.

It's not that I'm pretending to be cool, but my voice is really broken.

It felt like he had been brushed with a steel ball, and the pain made his throat tremble.

At this moment, Luo Feiyao suddenly felt that standing here seemed a bit redundant.

This strange feeling, and the sudden feeling of unhappiness and irritability in her heart, temporarily suppressed her admiration for Huang An.

Originally, she planned to praise Huang An a few words, but he was really awesome.

From the moment it appeared to the end of the chaos, it only took less than five minutes.

He alone, with an iron sword and three heads, solved this turmoil that once made her feel desperate.

But now, she doesn't want to praise Huang An anymore, and she feels very annoyed.

However, Luo Feiyao is a woman with general knowledge after all. She can clearly realize that business is more important now.

The most important thing at the moment is how to appease the people's emotions.

She never wanted to face such a turbulent crowd of people again. The situation was the most tense in the minute before Huang An appeared.

Luo Feiyao felt that the people under the high platform just wanted to eat her.

It's a man-eating demon.

At that moment, she felt like she was going to pee out of fear.

Fortunately, Huang An is here.

Only then did her beautiful eyes return to Huang An, and Huang An asked Zhao Yan:

"According to Ming Dynasty law, how many people in the Li family should be killed?"

Huang An went straight to the point and asked the most critical question.

In order to address the emotional needs of the people below the high platform and ease the still tense situation, bloodshed is necessary.

The question is, how many people should be killed!

"We have tried a total of one hundred and thirty-five members of the Li family so far. According to Ming law, thirty-six people should be killed. The rest can be killed or not!"

Zhao Yan said as he walked towards the backmost position of the high platform.

She went to get the dossier recording the details of the public trial.

When Huang An heard this number, he suddenly took a breath of cold air.

"hiss!"

A total of one hundred and thirty-five people were tried, and thirty-six of them should be executed according to Ming law.

What is the probability of this?

A quarter!

Thirty-six, this is not the total number of people in the Li family who should be executed according to the law.

It is about the number of people who were sentenced to death during the day after the trial.

Even for various reasons, today, the first day of the public trial, most of the cases heard must be major and important cases, and the penalties imposed will definitely be much heavier than those in the following days.

The reference significance of this data is not very great.

However, this number is still too scary.

Huang An has read the Ming Dynasty Code and knows many of its articles and laws.

Judging from his moral outlook and values, the provisions of the guiding law "Da Ming Law" are relatively benevolent in most of the specific provisions.

This is the so-called serious crime and light punishment.

But even so, there are still so many Li family members who should be sentenced to death.

One can imagine what these people did that made people so angry that the people almost rioted.

However, this number is not without its benefits.

So many heads were enough to calm the anger of the people.

He no longer has to ignore his limited conscience and kill the Li family who least deserve to die.

Zhao Yan quickly brought the new record file to Huang An.

This dossier is not actually a formal official document, and the recorded content is relatively concise.
To be continued...
