"We're late, the case is almost finished, and we only caught up with a tail, but I heard the county magistrate announce the verdict. Zhao Junbao was amused by the small appearance of "Red Feather", and remembered the appearance of his daughter who had been married for more than three years when she was so old, and her father's love was a little overflowing.

"But is there a heavy sentence?" Zhou Lang asked.

Wang Erleng was condemned as the first evil and sentenced to beheading. Some of the remaining people were exiled, some were imprisoned, and the lightest ones could not be released until more than ten years later. The verdict was fair. Li Xiucai said pertinently.

"In my opinion, Wang Erleng's bastard has to be sentenced to a decisive sentence at the lightest, but he didn't think about it, but he was just a prisoner, and he was cheaper, and he could live a few more days. Zhao Junbao said with regret.

"Where is it so easy?" Li Xiucai smiled and explained, "Beheading is a major matter, and the county order has no right to enforce it at will." The case must be reported to the Criminal Department for compounding, and it can only be reported to His Majesty after it is verified that there are no mistakes or omissions, and it can only be executed after the approval of the Royal Pen. ”

"It's so troublesome? In the play, the judge of the case escorted the prisoner to the execution ground with a stroke of the pen, and the executioner 'clicked' the knife in his hand, so that the thief's head fell to the ground, which is really happy. Zhao Junbao said and almost sang.

"Naturally, we must not be careless in matters where human life is at stake. The more rigorous it is, the less the soul of injustice. Capital punishment is not only to impose heavy penalties on offenders, but also to warn the world that the cost of committing adultery is huge, and it is important not to have such a heart. Obeying the law is the right way, in order to enjoy peace and stability. Li Xiucai expressed his opinion.

Bai Sheng couldn't help but look at him twice when he heard this. This sour guy is different from other nerds. There is no shortage of people who can read in Vietnam, but there are not many people who can read and have unique vision and insight. If Li Zhao can uphold this heart, he may have something to do in the future.

"It's true, it's not easy for anyone to live for a lifetime. It would be too unlucky to be wronged in the head. Zhao Junbao agreed.

"Don't all the people in the play like to cry out for grievances? A few of them just confessed their guilt so honestly, and they didn't cry out for grievances?" asked with a wink of eyes.

"The evidence is conclusive, and there is no room for them to cry out for injustice. However, it is said that several of them passed the buck to each other, saying that they were deceived by others, in short, no one would admit that they were the masterminds, and they were trying their best to reduce their responsibility, which made the court lively for a while. Li Xiucai said.

"According to me, I still pulled it out and cut it the most painful. Those few bad seeds, one by one, are definitely not wronged. Zhao Junbao stretched out his hand and gestured and said.

"One by one, should you be the minister of the Qin mission to handle the case?" Li Xiucai smiled and said, "Even if the minister of the Qin mission has the right to cut first and then play if the emperor is in person, he can't easily cut off someone's head indiscriminately." How is that different from a faint official who cares about people's lives?"

"Oh, Xiucai, you said bad things about Qincha! I made a note of it, and I will definitely find an opportunity to sue you in the future. Zhao Junbao joked with a long voice.

Li Xiucai smiled helplessly, and then said: "This time the Qin Cha is the current twelve princes, which shows that the imperial court attaches great importance to floods. It seems that the people of Anhui are looking forward to a better life. ”

"What about the prince, isn't he still breathing out of the same nostril with those dog officials?" Zhao Junbao said disdainfully and indignantly.

"The Twelve Princes are different from them. Li Xiucai's voice was calm but unusually firm.

"What's the difference? Is it that you don't need to eat or drink or you don't spend money? 'The world is as black as a crow', what's the difference?" Zhao Junbao said unconvinced.

Bai Sheng's eyes flashed, he would not be like Zhao Junbao, but he also wanted to know what kind of answer Li Xiu would give.

"His Royal Highness the Twelfth has made a marriage with the girl of the Helian family, and this matter is known to the world. In this flood, the Helian clan donated a lot of money.

If His Royal Highness is just greedy for pleasure, he only needs to coax the future princess. Guarding the golden mountain of Helian clan, how much money does it cost?

If you just want a false name, you can just donate money and goods and continue to enjoy leisure in the prince's mansion. If you have a good name, you don't have to endure hardships. Why bother to let go of the comfortable life in the capital, but you have to come to this dangerous place from afar?

If the disaster relief is done well, it is inevitable that it will be praised by the emperor and praised by hundreds of officials, but once it is done badly, it will not only dislike the emperor, but will also be participated in by hundreds of officials and scolded by all the people, which is really worth the loss.

I can see such a simple thing, let alone the Twelve Princes?" Li Xiucai said unhurriedly.

"According to what you say, this royal highness is not holding the golden thigh of the Helian clan properly, and it is thankless to come out. Isn't he stupid?" Zhao Junbao didn't understand.

The "stupid" Twelfth Highness glanced at the "golden thighs" beside him, and silently wrote down Zhao Junbao in his heart.

"His Highness the Twelfth is very intelligent and courageous, and he is very comparable. How can you be stupid?" Li Xiucai praised sincerely.

"And what is he for?" asked the "Golden Thigh," pretending to be confused.

"For the sake of the court, but also for the people.

His Royal Highness Twelfth naturally knew that the stakes were still to receive the post of envoy, which showed that he had the certainty and confidence to handle this matter well. He was well prepared to make sure nothing went wrong. Afraid that a few people would not understand, Li Xiucai explained more thoroughly and thoroughly, "First and foremost, the support of the Helian clan.

With this, the disaster relief thing will not be smashed.

The Helian clan bought and sold all over the world, and could provide enough money to support it. In this way, the food and clothing of the victims, the prevention of epidemics after the disaster, the reconstruction of people's dwellings, and the construction of embankments have been greatly guaranteed.

In fact, as long as there are no large-scale starvation deaths, the spread of the epidemic, or the outbreak of large-scale civil uprisings, this errand is basically completed.

However, I don't think the Twelve Highnesses will be satisfied with this.

The second point is that His Royal Highness the Twelfth is precious, and as soon as the officials of the Wanhuai Mansion are sober-minded, they will not dare and will not blatantly fight against him.

Even if you play some tricks in private, you will have a lot of concerns, once you don't grasp it well and hurt His Royal Highness, the emperor will definitely investigate it to the end. At that time, I am afraid that it will not be as simple as breaking the fortune and losing the office.

In this way, even if they have the idea of dealing with disaster relief materials, they have to be more careful, and they have to weigh their own catties.

Of course, they can also choose to bribe the Twelve Highnesses, but with the inexhaustible gold mountain of the Helian Clan, the Twelve Highnesses are afraid that they will not be able to look down on this point. ”
