Chapter 63 Zhu Pi

 After Zhao Ji completed his manipulation of the Imperial City Division to win people's hearts, he was escorted back to the Yanfu Palace in the Imperial City by his personal guards. The night is long, what can I do to relieve my loneliness?

At this time, the eunuch Liang Shicheng asked to see him.

Zhao Jidao: "Announcement."

After Liang Shicheng paid his respects, he reported: "In accordance with the official order, the old slave has urged Dali Temple to report the results of Lin Lingsu's case to the Yushitai as soon as possible.

The old slave went to the Yushitai without stopping and urged the princes at the Yushitai to quickly review the trial results of Lin Lingsu's case."

Zhao Ji took a sip of tea and was quite satisfied with Liang Shicheng's efficiency.

He asked: "Master Liang, how about the review at Yushitai?"

Liang Shicheng replied with a smile on his face: "At the reminder of the old slave, the princes of Yushitai were concerned about Lin Lingsu's murder of His Majesty with poisonous elixirs, and Lin Lingsu's presiding over the construction of Taoist Shenxiao Wanfeng Palace.

They believed that the evidence was conclusive when they embezzled public funds.

The reexamination by the Yushitai agreed that Dali Temple sentenced Lin Lingsu, the demon Taoist, to death.

The old slave also brought back Lin Lingsu's judgment document and asked His Majesty Zhu to approve it."

Zhao Ji nodded and said approvingly: "Master Liang is very resolute and resolute. Every time I tell you about my love, I can get it done quickly!"

After being praised by Zhao Ji, Liang Shicheng felt very happy. His fat face was filled with joy, and he also showed a smile that was very similar to the honest, kind and honest smile.

Liang Shicheng said: "I am honored to serve your Majesty and run errands. This is your Majesty's respect for me!

It is truly a blessing for this old slave to be able to contribute a little to the government!"

Zhao Ji smiled deeply, but he was thinking in his heart, when will he start targeting you, the corrupt and corrupt eunuch Liang Shicheng, who is known as a hidden minister?

At this time, Liang Shicheng was very foresight and handed over the documents from the Yushitai to review the results of Lin Lingsu's trial in Dali Temple to the Long Case in front of Zhao Ji.

Liang Shicheng smiled respectfully and said: "In the case of demon Dao Lin Lingsu, in the end, we asked the official to write and comment on it."

Zhao Ji knew that in the Song Dynasty, judicial procedures were no less advanced than those of later generations. The trial of a case, especially the judgment of a death row prisoner, had to go through trial, review, and finally be submitted to the emperor, who would approve the decision with his pen.

Death row prisoners are executed.

In the Song Dynasty, when horses were the fastest land means of transportation, it would take a long time for this set of judicial procedures for death row criminals to go through. Therefore, the customary execution of "Qiu Hou Wen Zhan" came into being.

Time point.

However, as a special matter, Zhao Ji decided that the execution of Demon Dao Lin Ling must not be delayed too long.

Zhao Ji saw that both the trial in Dali Temple and the retrial at Yushitai used the Lingchi death penalty method against Lin Lingsu.

Zhao Ji not only frowned.

Liang Shicheng was particularly discerning. He asked cautiously: "Is there anything wrong with the official family?"

Zhao Jidao: "Demon Dao Lin Lingsu certainly deserves to die, but...

Alas! Who makes me feel kind?

This execution at Lingchi, as the common name among the people, means death by a thousand cuts, isn’t it?”

Liang Shicheng hurriedly echoed: "What the officials said is absolutely true. This execution at Lingchi, as the people call it, is really the 'death with a thousand cuts' as the officials said!

It is said that the flesh of a condemned prisoner who was tortured was cut with a sharp knife, a small slice, a small slice.

The person who was tortured by Lingchi was still conscious at first, watching the flesh on his body being cut off piece by piece, and watching the blood flowing out..."

Zhao Jidao: "Master Liang, do you know what crime Ling Chi was used for?"

Liang Shicheng hurriedly replied: "Lingchi's punishments are all used for the most heinous crimes.

However, the demon Dao Lin Lingsu has been in Beijing for more than four years. He deceived the emperor and committed great corruption. He also used poisonous elixirs as elixirs and presented them to His Majesty in order to murder His Majesty.

His crime deserves the punishment of Ling Chi!"

However, Zhao Ji still feels that this ancient punishment of Lingchi is still too cruel and life-destroying.

What's more, Zhao Ji knew in his heart that the demon Lin Lingsu really wanted to murder the emperor by poisoning the pills given to the original owner Song Huizong? Zhao Ji didn't believe it.

Zhao Ji's royal pen and Zhu commented: "Changing the demon path, Lin Lingsu was executed at Lingchi and was beheaded."
