On the morning of the 25th, just like when the public trial of the harvesting and harvesting case was held, the surrounding streets were already full of water before dawn. And this time was different from the last time. This time the case was even more interesting. Attention, secondly, it is still the first month of the year. Even in Guangdong, there is no farming. Farmers from all over the country have come to the city to watch the trial, which makes the number of people even greater.
Of course, even if there were more 'audiences', Qian Minglin and Xu Boyuan would not change the place of questioning to a more spacious room. On the contrary, Qian Minglin also deployed more police officers to maintain order, ensuring that there were at least three feet of space between them. There is a policeman standing guard.
At the right time, Xu Boyuan walked out in official uniform of the sixth grade, facing the crowd of people below, listening to the mixed shouts outside the house, and said loudly: "Bring the criminal to court!"
The police at the scene agreed, and the door was opened in a flash. Many people wearing hoods were pulled out by the police and came to the place where the defendants were standing. When they stood upright, they lifted their hoods. Many people had been there since it was still dark. They had been wearing hoods since they were sleeping, and had never taken them off. Now they were suddenly taken off, and the sun's rays shone in from the east window, forcing them to lower their heads to avoid it.
There was a burst of exclamation from the people who were standing behind to watch the question. Others just paid it back. The Gao family used to be one of the best families in Guangzhou City, with a very high status. Ordinary people didn't talk to the master of the Gao family, they just talked to their family members. The servants spoke highly of each other, but now they saw the Gao family standing in front of them in tattered clothes and disheveled faces. Many people looked at them in surprise. Especially one of Gao Jingde's concubines also appeared in court, and many people saw them. This woman, who was equally disheveled but could not hide her beauty, even set his eyes on her.
With a "pop!" sound, Xu Boyuan knocked on the gavel, and the police on both sides also shouted: "Quiet! Silence!" before the scene became quiet.
Xu Boyuan coughed twice more and announced that the court was open.
First, of course, the policeman read out the indictment. A tall policeman with a loud voice stood up, saluted Xu Boyuan, and then read it loudly.
The whole case started from Gao Jingde's attempt to take "big medicine" to prolong his life and recruit people who knew how to harvest and cut raw materials, to wizard Jin Rong being recruited by him, to wizard Wu De taking the initiative to come to his home in August this year, and forcing Wu De to He helped himself to recruit people to harvest and cut the animals, and then Ude used the corpses to set up a 'formation'. Finally, he missed the mark and was discovered by the government and captured alive.
The process of how to cast a spell on Yunxi was omitted, but the existence of such a thing was mentioned. The process of Zhang Sanfeng's treatment was not elaborated, but more pen and ink was used to write it.
Yunxi felt that Zhang Sanfeng had great magical power and that the Buddhist and Taoist families did have 'magic'. Although these were all dismissed as feudal superstition in later generations, they were still useful in ancient times when the level of science and technology was relatively low. If people really believe in the existence of ghosts and gods, they will have a bottom line in their daily behavior and the social atmosphere will be better. Although the cross religion is a cult, the social order will be significantly improved in places where there are many religious believers.
The common people who came to listen, regardless of whether they believed in Taoism or not, their eyes widened after hearing what Zhang Sanfeng did, and they listened with great curiosity.
However, the envoys from the foreign countries sitting in the back hall did not listen to the following words at all. Their eyes were fixed on the envoy from Majapahit. Of course, the envoy named Sumanli from Majapahit did not stare.
Looking at himself, he looked straight ahead with dull eyes, as if his brain had received information that it could not process and had shut down.
Before reciting Zhang Sanfeng's rescue of Yunxi, the policeman who recited said: "..., Gao Jingde confessed that the two wizards he recruited, Jin Rong and the uninvited Ude, claimed to be from Majapahit,..."
Ordinary people had no reaction to this. To them, except for Annan, Korea, Fusang, and Mongolia, there was no difference between other foreign countries, and their names were not worth remembering.
For people, the meaning is completely different.
The public trial of the Ming Dynasty publicly stated that the most important criminal was from Majapahit. It was definitely not what he said. Even if the emperor of the Ming Dynasty was not slapped in the face like this, many envoys stared at Majapahit's envoys and thought:
'Will the Ming Dynasty send troops to attack Majapahit again?'
While they were thinking about it, Su Manli, who was sitting in a daze, suddenly jumped up and shouted: "His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, ministers of the Ming Dynasty, even though Ude and Jin Rong are indeed from Majapahit.
, and it has absolutely nothing to do with the imperial court of our country. It is a private behavior of ordinary people. Your Majesty knows it for sure!" Although Yunxi was not here at this time, he still kept talking, and his voice was transmitted from the back hall to the front hall,
This aroused the curiosity and confusion of the people who were watching the trial and the police who were maintaining order at the scene: they could not hear Su Manli's voice clearly. The police who were reading the indictment stopped and looked at Xu Boyuan.
Sweat immediately appeared on Xu Boyuan's forehead. He knew that something would happen if Majapahit's envoys were to watch in the back hall. He raised an objection at that time, but Yunxi did not accept it, so he had no choice but to accept the order.
"Quickly, let the police shut up that man's mouth!" Xu Boyuan ordered.
After Su Manli's mouth was gagged and tied to a chair, Xu Boyuan signaled the police to continue reading the indictment.
After another half an hour, the indictment was read out, and Xu Boyuan asked loudly: "Can I plead guilty to the crime?"
"Sir, it is true that the villain recruited Jin Rong to collect raw materials and combine them with 'big medicine', but he did not participate in the witchcraft case!" Gao Jingde immediately shouted: "The villain's confession never stated that he participated in the witchcraft case.
This is a major case of witchcraft. If someone else is framed by a villain, please be aware of it!" Although the case of harvesting and mutilating is also a capital crime, and most likely will be punished, most of the family members can survive; but if it is involved in a major case of witchcraft, that is
The crime of killing everyone!
In an instant, all the Gao family members present shouted, loudly saying that they did not know about this and asked for your attention. Everyone else at the scene except Ude and Su Dongli also said the same, and the scene became chaotic again.
stand up.
"Pah! Pah! Pah!" Xu Boyuan knocked on the gavel several times in succession, and the police maintained order before the order at the scene was restored.
He immediately said: "I will definitely investigate this matter in detail, and the criminal will not be punished!" Then he asked Ude: "Can you plead guilty?"
