Chapter 191: Hubert
It was only after the jury from the Stone Statue City arrived at the scene that the trial ceremony was officially announced.
In this mysterious land, elves are regarded as the noblest and purest beings, regardless of their status, and even the lowest earth elves have the right to enjoy the fairest and most just treatment.
Penalties for crimes must be guaranteed to be free of error, and the two of the highest positions in the city are generally tried, and the oldest 100 people in the city serve as juries.
After the verdict is announced, the jury votes on whether to pass or not, and more than two-thirds of the total votes are passed.
In the event of a miscarriage of justice, the 100-member jury would all be convicted and imprisoned, with imprisonment ranging from three months to 10 months, and facing huge compensation.
If death is caused by the course of the trial, the jury must be followed by a funeral or a loss of property.
Therefore, for the sake of safety, the members of the jury will voluntarily refuse to accept the death penalty, unless it is a very serious crime, threatening the safety of the Stone City, and the evidence is sufficient.
"Elves, please be quiet, I didn't expect that there would be such a day when I would stand on a high platform and judge my daughter, but in front of the law, everyone is equal, not to mention Luo Li, even I have to accept the judgment. ”
Lord Ash took the scroll handed by the guards, which recorded the evidence of Luo Li's crime in detail, and the physical and physical witnesses were complete.
"The fairy elf Luo Li, on the charge of smuggling and collecting tobacco and soil, was sentenced to death according to the laws of the Sri Lankan elf kingdom, hanged or thrown into the lion cage. ”
The city lord of Ash read the words on the scroll lightly, and it seemed that Luo Li in the audience had nothing to do with her.
She knew that the smoke and soil were found from Chen Feng's body, and because of his status as a prince, she would turn a blind eye, so she didn't know and blamed Luo Li for all the crimes.
After the verdict was announced, there was a riot in the audience, and no one wanted to believe that the second young lady Luo Li would do such a thing?
"No wonder it's ugly? It's because of poisoning!"
"My chest is about to fall to my knees, and the fat on this body, I will say goodbye to her from now on!"
"It's really a shame for the elves, you can't just sentence her to death, it's too cheap for her, she should be tied to a stone pillar like now, without providing dew, and let her die of exposure and dehydration. ”
The elves plucked up their courage and talked about it, Luo Li in front of him was no longer an immortal elf, but a criminal who was riddled with serious crimes, and there was no need to deliberately restrain her in front of her.
All kinds of swearing remarks are overwhelming.
At first, they were still wondering how Luo Li had become like this, with long legs and big breasts, like an ugly monster!
But now everything can be explained clearly, which is the result of gnawing tobacco and soil.
Elves have always been law-abiding and rarely commit crimes, scorning their criminals as their own goblin kind.
The judgment bench in the central square has been abandoned for many years, and when it was reopened again, it was actually the death sentence of the fairy elves? Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the fairy elves who have been sentenced to death can be counted with their toes.
Hearing the word "death penalty", the jury immediately cheered up.
If Lord Ash miscalculates, and they just agree, then these old men will have to follow suit, so be careful.
They took all kinds of evidence and confessions, studied and discussed them repeatedly, and in the face of the results of the trial, these 100 people were like grasshoppers on a rope.
Smoke and earth can cause deadly damage to elves' lungs, and a puff of smoke can kill five or six adult elves on the spot.
What's more, this is still a whole piece, weighing two kilograms, and the degree of harm, it goes without saying, it can kill thousands or even nearly 10,000 elves, it can be determined that this is a very serious crime.
The dismissal of the death penalty is clearly not in accordance with the regulations.
"But!"
When the emotions of the whole audience were ignited, the City Lord of Ash said slowly: "Since Luo Li is an immortal elf and can refuse my trial, I announce that I will reject the death penalty just now, and instead imprison the City Lord's Mansion for half a year, and a fine of one million gold coins, which will be handed over within thirty days." ”
"We agree!"
Faced with this result, the jury nodded in agreement without even thinking about it.
The punishment of one million gold coins is enough to play a punitive role.
You must know that even the lord of Ash City has an annual salary of only 150,000 gold coins.
This fine, even if Luo Li is bankrupt, he can't afford to pay it back, so he has to be forced to work to make money, which is equivalent to indirect imprisonment.
"Then let's do it, loosen Luo Li's bonds, send him back to the City Lord's Mansion, and don't take half a step out of the boudoir for half a year. ”
"Wait!"
An old man with a frown suddenly stood up in the corner, and he walked slowly to the high platform with a peachwood cane.
"Grandpa, you don't walk the birds at home, why do you run to the central square on such a hot day?" Aatrox, who was nearby, hurriedly ran over to help the old man.
"Lord Ash, before I arrived, you started the trial, it would be too shameful for me to lose face. ”
"Admiral Hubert, I don't think there's any need to disturb you about this little thing. ”
Lord Ash bowed to him.
The old man in front of him is Aatrox's grandfather Hubert, born in the fairy elf, who has participated in the Great Patriotic War, defeated the attack of the skeleton several times, and is also one of the existing general rank holders in the elf kingdom, and his identity and status are extremely respected.
Even if he is now retired and living in seclusion in the Stone Statue City, his prestige is still there, and the important generals in the country are his cronies.
When the lord of Ash saw him, he had to be respectful.
"According to the rules, the two highest positions in the city are required to be in charge of the trial, and although I have been removed from the rank, my position is still above you, and it should be judged by you and me together. ”
Hubert narrowed his old eyes and looked at Luo Li on the stone pillar, his eyes full of cold killing intent.
From the point of view of the older generation, the marriage of the elves is very sacred, and when Luo Li and Aatrox were not born, the two clans had already begun to draw up a marriage contract, but it was delayed due to war.
Nominally, Hubert had already treated Luo Li as his granddaughter-in-law, and the two clans were often referred to as in-laws, otherwise he would not have supported Ash, a lowly flower elf, as the lord of the city.
But Luo Li broke the marriage contract and was willing to be defiled by a foreign man, which was equivalent to throwing Hubert's old face to the ground and rubbing it back and forth with his feet.
Shame on her! She has to pay the price.
And the heaviest price is death! Death in public can be used to vent Hubert's anger.
"I've heard about the smoke and dirt, it's very serious, and I won't tolerate it. ”
Hubert ordered someone to bring the box, which was full of smoke and soil, and he brushed his sleeves and said: "These are all found in Luo Li's boudoir, they have been weighed, and they are about seventy or eighty kilograms, and if they are lit in the square, it will be enough to make the Stone Statue City extinct." ”
