In such a shocking case of the sale of the extraordinarily large homeless people, in addition to Ruo Ao Zike, who was the defeated division, and Chen Huang, who was the court manager, naturally there were three officials of the three divisions who accompanied the hall, Sima, Situ, and Si Kou, who were interrogated by the three divisions together, and each tail of the phoenix pattern on their court clothes represented that their status was not low.

The three divisions will conduct joint trials, that is, in case of major cases, the competent criminal and prison organs, together with the supervision organs and judicial organs, will accompany the trial.

This is a message, called: Minister's News.

Now the time has passed, but the rivet and vermilion lacquer door of the Criminal Prison Department has not been opened for a long time, and when the sun rises, the door of the Criminal Prison Department finally opens with a bang, waiting for the ordinary people on the East Street to rush up.

"It's open, it's open, the door of the Prison Division is open!"

"Chen Tingli is about to start ascending, it seems that he has not been stopped today!"

Even Cheng Qingqing, who was on the second floor of the teahouse opposite, rushed to the window to look at the prison division when she heard the sound, but what she saw was Chen Huang respectfully sending Situ Nan out, "Captain Situ Du, the princess has forgiven you for the crime of collision and ordered me to release you on the spot!"

"Then thank you for your magnanimity!"

Situ Nan had an expression that he had known for a long time, but he still thanked him on his face.

The people of the Five Cities Terracotta Division had been waiting at the door of the Prison Division for a long time, and several small commanders respectfully stepped forward with clean clothes and clear water, and sprinkled them with willow leaves on his body to remove the bad luck caused by the prison disaster, "Lord Deputy Commander, you really came out! If Lord Ao Du Lieutenant is really clever, he said that your Excellency can be released today, and you can indeed be released." ”

"Hmph, let's go, find a place, let's wait for Lord Du to come out!"

Situ Nan nodded, looked back and took a deep look at Chen Huang standing on the gate and the untouchables around him, especially his eyes were fixed on Lao Wan, his eyes were gloomy, and he evoked a sneer: Chen Huang, and these untouchables, he will not let them go, dare to give him such a great shame!

"Yes, my lord, we have booked a private room in the teahouse opposite. The commander flatteringly invited him to the teahouse opposite to take a seat.

Zhou Jinghua stood in front of the window, looked down at this scene and smiled, "It seems that there is nothing to look at today's case." Xiao Jiang, let's go back!"

"Yes, Miss!"

Xiao Jiang turned around and followed Zhou Jinghua downstairs.

Seeing this, Qiao Yun hurriedly said, "Miss, my uncle won't really let that Situ Nan go, then it will be difficult to catch him again!"

"I don't believe that Chen Huang will let Situ Nan go like this. ”

Cheng Qingqing said firmly, these days, Chen Huang has been busy preparing this case day and night, and he wants to redress the grievances of the people, he will never give up easily.

At this time, the people saw Situ Nan beating his horse away with high spirits, and sighed one after another, "Sure enough, even the princess and Chen Tingli can't do anything about him and Ruo Aoduwei who is behind him!"

Xiao Si, who was holding the lame Lao Wan to see the public trial, frowned and said, "Shopkeeper, it seems that this case can only be like this......"

"No, the lady promised us that she would definitely give Aunt Liu justice. Lao Wan shook his head and said.

The old man sighed, "This case is difficult, today is still the trial of the three divisions, Lord Sima will inevitably favor parents and children, the son of Lao Situ, Situ Duwei has just been released, and Lao Si Kou is a perennial ...... The presiding judge is still Ruo Ao's third son, how can he win this lawsuit?"

Lao Wan still didn't believe it, his eyes firmly passed through the crowd of people, and as everyone looked into the prison department that was wide open in Zhumen, he saw that under the public hall, at this time, there were fifty mighty servants standing on each side of the court, holding water and fire sticks, with solemn expressions.

A loud shout: "Mighty!"

The whispering people shouted back in unison.

He and the little four, the five, and the six old men also retreated with the crowd.

The entire public hall was solemn and solemn at this time, and all the people standing outside the gate quietly stretched their necks and focused their eyes on Ruo Aozike, who was sitting high in the public hall.

A meager ray of sunlight shone through the cornices into the somewhat gloomy public hall, Chen Huang looked solemn, and took a few staff members and officials to carry down the files of nearly 10,000 missing people that they had been registering day and night day and night, and stepped into the public hall with the four big characters of "Mingde Prudent Punishment" hanging high in order.

There are two seats in the middle of the high hall, if Ao Zike is wearing a defeated three-tailed phoenix court dress at this time, he sits on the top of the main seat in the hall, and Chen Huang stands at the bottom of the hall in court to salute him who is sitting at the top and the three divisions who are jurors on one side, and then sit in the courtiers.

Although it was Chen Huang who was in charge of the prison.

But it was Ruo Aozike who was in charge of justice.

The three divisions have the right to jointly decide the case, and the case will not be heard by just one person.

Chen Huang picked up the top volume and unfolded it, which was the results of all the interrogations and the transcripts of his confessions in these days, and said loudly: "Lord Si Defeat, a month ago, on the tenth day of the seventh month, after the report of Lord Chengyoutu, 21 people were arrested outside the city of Yingdu, and after interrogation, all of them confessed that they traded in a deserted Zhuangzi outside the city, and forcibly abducted 1,200 homeless homeless people as slaves after the flood in our Chu State this year, and wanted to sell them to others to obtain huge profits.

On the third day of the eighth month, Zheng Guoshang Jia Xiangao and his two sisters, Xianyu and Xianqing, came to surrender, believing that the case of the homeless people was committed by their subordinate Xian's firm, and that a cadre of human traffickers were all their subordinates, and admitted that their tooth shop was in Chu for five years, and a total of more than 50,000 Chu people who were homeless after selling a lot of water for others, and at the same time claimed that someone chased and killed them on the night of the first day of August, and more than 300 of their servants were killed overnight, and his own brother, Xian Qiheng, died that night.

The history of this order (a work made in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period) has all examined the corpses, identified the body, and confirmed that it was all caused by knife wounds and homicide.

At the same time, in the past few days, 10,120 cases of displaced people who have disappeared after the flood have been registered, and all of them have been compiled here. ”

Chen Huang showed the eight-foot-long book of displaced people in his hand to the three divisions inside and outside the public hall and the jury, and a sound of inhalation suddenly sounded inside and outside the originally quiet prison division.

Although everyone knew that the Zheng Merchant House had forcibly abducted 50,000 displaced people, they did not know that they had all been killed and exterminated.

"Killed so many people?!"

"It's really intolerable!"

"This Xian Clan Trading House is not a good thing, it sells for 50,000 people in my Chu country!"

"Kill them, return our relatives!"

"Yes, kill them!"

……

For a while, there were voices of indignation inside and outside the court, and some people even threw the vegetables in the basket or the mud picked up everywhere on the heads of the three of Xiangao, Xianyu kept dodging, pouting and trying to justify, "Big brother, it's obviously not the homeless person we sold slightly, but your chord seven......"

Xiangao frowned and looked at her disagreeing, "Yu'er!"

Xian Qing snorted coldly, lowered his head and said, "Is it useful to defend now?

There was a lot of noise inside and outside the courtroom.

As the representative of today's jury, Lao Situ sat on one side and coughed heavily, Ruo Ziliang frowned in displeasure, and the old man, who was Si Kou, squinted his eyes half-squinted, as if he had fallen asleep.

Ruo Ao Zike saw Ruo Ao Ziliang looking at him unhappily, casually flipped through the big hand of the file, held the startling wood of Huanghuali, and slapped it heavily, "Quiet! This is the public court, and no noise is allowed, otherwise the violator will be dragged out and beaten again on the forty boards!"

"Mighty!"

The water and fire sticks in the hands of the officials on both sides slammed into the ground, as if hitting people, and suddenly the noisy people inside and outside the prison department were suddenly extremely gentle, and some timid commoners even shrank into the crowd and hid.

Ruo Ao Zike looked at the three brothers and sisters of the Xian clan and the twenty-one human traffickers kneeling in the hall, then he cleared his throat and asked, "Are the three of you who are the three brothers and sisters of the Zheng Guoxian clan mentioned by Chen Tingli just now?"

"Exactly, grass people, strings high. ”

"Grass people, Xianyu. ”

"Grass people, string green. ”

The three of them, dressed in prison uniforms, knelt down at the same time and replied, "Knock on your lordship!"

Ruo Zike changed his previous banter, and began to interrogate him in a precarious manner: "In what year and month did you start to kidnap the displaced people in my Chu State, after the capture, who did you sell them to, the profits from them, and where the displaced people are now, come one by one." ”

The calm and gentle male voice of the string high slowly replied, "In the fifteenth year of King Chu Mu, my fifth sister Xian Qing and seventh brother Xian Qi left Zheng State with fifty Zheng family slaves, came to Chu State, and began to engage in the dental industry.

At that time, the Chu State was flooded every year, and the people were displaced, so my seventh brother saw the huge profits, and took advantage of the traces of the great water in the Chu State to take more than 10,000 homeless people for free, some of them had nowhere to go and voluntarily followed, and some of them were taken captive.

Later, when a big customer learned of this, he bought these homeless people from my seventh brother, and asked my seventh brother to be responsible for him to trap these homeless people after the great flood war.

We have a rule in the dental shop: only ask about money, not people, or where to go.

Therefore, we only sent the exiles to the designated unmanned Zhuangzi outside the city on schedule, and in the past five years, we have sold a total of 54,861 people.

And in July this year, in the western suburbs of Chu State, we heard the news that some nobles of Chu State offered 50,000 slaves to the King of Chu.

Then the news came from the other side, but the purchase of the displaced people was suddenly stopped, and we had no place to go for the remaining 1,200 people, so we moved all of them to the foot of a hill near the eastern suburbs, and left them to fend for themselves.

Not long after, on the first day of the eighth month, my seventh brother and 300 of his servants were tragically killed overnight.

When we came back from doing business abroad, we found that the whole house had been slaughtered, so we came to surrender to avoid being killed.

If the adults ask the villain, where are the 50,000 homeless people now, as far as we know, they must have followed the horses to the battlefield. ”

"Sure enough, our relatives were sent to the battlefield!"

"Damn, these Zheng people!"

There was another exclamation and crying outside the prison department's court, "But they have been around us all these years, and they have never found out about ......."

"Who are the big customers you are talking about, answer truthfully?!"

Ruo Zike ordered "silence" and finally asked the most crucial question, while Ao Ziliang sat in the jury seat, leaned in slightly, and looked deeply at the three Xian brothers and sisters in the hall, as if they would condemn them to death as long as they answered.

And all the people stretched their necks forward, waiting for the answer with great concentration.

"It is your country that is the captain of the forbidden army of the Tiger Ben: Ruo Ao Yue Jiao!"

When the string high announced the name.

The audience gasped inside and outside the stadium: I really said the name!

Ruo Ao Ziliang suddenly tightened his sleeve robe, shook his hands into fists, and wanted to get up and scold, but what moved faster than him was Ruo Ao Zike, who was sitting on the top position, his eyebrows sank.

There was a heavy knock in his hand: "Presumptuous! If Ao Duwei is in charge of the 50,000 Tiger Ben Forbidden Army of my Chu Palace, and he is the first warrior of my Great Chu, how can he allow Er and other Zheng people to slander at will? Moreover, as the Commander of the Forbidden Army, why did he want to buy 50,000 slaves, you are climbing the filth If Ao Duwei rebelled, you can't do it?"

At this time, after the public hall, in the dark back hall, Ling Yin Ziban and Mi Huang, both of them sat quietly in the back hall as if listening to a play.

They heard it at the same time.

The former frowned, and even heard Ruo Ao Ziliang in the public court question: "If Ao Si is defeated, I'm afraid it's biased, right?"

"I wonder where Lord Sima thinks is biased?"

Ruo Si defeated and stood up respectfully and asked.

"Rebellion is a great crime of rebellion, and the purchase of slaves is not necessarily a rebellion, and if this is the case, if all the 50,000 slaves of Ao Duwei have been sacrificed to the king, it is even more untenable to rebel, and what Lord Si Defeated said is speculation, not fact. ”

Ruo Ziliang said in a deep voice, even if it was his favorite nephew sitting in the middle, his tone was still very tough.

Ruo Ao Zike smiled playfully and confessed, "Master Sima taught me a lesson." ”

Ling Zi, who was sitting in the back hall, frowned when he heard this.

And Mi Huang was silent, and continued to listen to the panicked voice coming from the court in front of him, "The villain doesn't dare, everything the villain said is the truth, the villain's brother and sister were afraid of being chased and killed, so they surrendered to the front, but the villain didn't know what Lord Duwei bought this batch of homeless people for, we only collect money, and never ask the buyer for it." ”

Ruo Zike raised an eyebrow and continued, "Okay, so do you have the credentials of all your transactions in the past five years?"

"The receipt stubs for all the transactions were all on the villain's three staff, and they took them all away, and now the villain has no evidence. Xiangao shook his head and replied.

"And where are they now?"

"Although we were slaughtered, we didn't find the bodies of the three of them, presumably they fled in advance and are now missing!"

"It's nothing, it's nonsense!"

Ruo Zike's hand slapped again, and reprimanded loudly, "Then why did you brothers and sisters not flee after being chased and killed, but came to surrender? Do you know what crime you should be guilty of when Zheng Guoshang Jia Pan defiled my important minister of Chu State?"

Old Situ also smiled and said to him, "Lord Situ really broke the key in one word. ”

Ruo Ao Ziliang also nodded when he heard this, and his color decreased slightly.
