Chapter 10: Hearing Cases for Officials and Redressing Grievances for the People.
Now that he has money, Bai Ye doesn't plan to save flowers, like any sugar gourds and sugar dolls, they are bought in piles, and if they can't finish eating, they will be sent to nearby children for free, which can be regarded as a small means to let the people of Bu County know him as a new official.
......
The next morning, the sun had already sunburned into the house, Bai Ye got up from the bed slowly, and after washing up, she saw that Han Ge's little girl hadn't gotten up yet, so she went outside to buy breakfast and put it on the table in her room.
At this time, there was a knock on the door outside the courtyard, Bai Ye hurriedly walked over and opened the door, and there were two officers and soldiers in black feathered clothes outside.
"What's the matter?"
The two officers and soldiers in black feathered clothes replied respectfully, "My lord, not long ago, someone beat a drum in front of the yamen to voice grievances, now calculate the time, I am afraid that the hall is about to open, according to the law, you have to be present." ”
"Oh! Bai Ye nodded, and when he left, he took out two 10-denomination silver coins from his pocket and gave them two, "Help me take care of the mansion, there is a little girl in it, protect her." ”
Seeing that the boss would actually give money when he ordered things, the two officers and soldiers in black feathered clothes smiled happily, and immediately stood up straight, raised their heads with their chests straight, "Yes! Lord Bai!"
"Well, yes, yes, it's teachable. Bai Ye nodded with a smile and walked to the Yamen Trial Hall with confidence.
......
Today's county yamen is no longer as comfortable as it used to be, and the empty card tables make the nearby space a little inexplicably weird.
Bai Ye drove straight in, passed through the outer courtyard of the yamen, and came to the trial hall. At this time, the trial hall was full of officials holding black and red wooden sticks, their eyes did not squint, and their expressions were serious.
When the black-clothed officers and soldiers in charge of guarding the gate saw Bai Ye coming, they all stood up straight and shouted, "Hello Lord Bai!"
Bai Ye nodded slightly and walked directly into the trial hall. Jiang Chuan and Master Luo Yun had already sat in their seats, and when they saw Bai Ye coming, they all nodded.
After Bai Ye sat down, Luo Yun took a sip of water and moistened his throat, "Take the plaintiff!"
Not long after, a woman, accompanied by two officers and soldiers in black feathered clothes, came over and knelt on the ground consciously.
Jiang Chuan spoke, "Woman, what is your name, and what do you have to tell you?" In fact, this matter had already been asked clearly before the opening of the court, and the people involved in the case were also called to the next room, and the reason why they asked again was only because of the regulations of the imperial court, and the procedures that should be in place should not be missing.
"My name is Tan Hui, I am a native of Jing'an Village, a few days ago, my husband went up the mountain to chop wood, fell off the cliff, and died in Huangquan, but unfortunately the family was poor, and there was no money for the funeral, the rich man of the same village, Nangong Mountain, found me, and said that I could borrow money urgently, I didn't know the inside story at the time, so I took it, but I didn't expect him to call me back a few days later, and the interest was more than ten times. At this, the woman's face showed anger, "I can't afford it, and he wants me to pay the debt with my body, or else he will go and dig up my husband's grave." ”
"Oh! Jiang Chuan nodded, "Xuannan Gongshan is here." ”
"Yes!" The two black-clothed officers and soldiers who pressed the woman were ordered to leave, and called Nangong Mountain next door.
Na Nangong Shan has a big waist and a round waist, wearing a green-purple striped brocade robe, a round hat, and a purple sand teapot in his hand, with an ugly face and an obscene appearance. He walked up to the woman, glanced at the woman's chest without a trace, and then looked at Jiang Chuan and said with a smile, "Hello Lord Jiang." ”
Jiang Chuan pursed his lips, "This woman sued you for usury, the court law stipulates that the interest on foreign loans shall not exceed three percent, but how can you be ten times the interest?"
Luo Yun lowered his head, and the brush in his hand slid quickly. He is primarily responsible for documenting the proceedings and providing additional questioning to the presiding judge.
Nangong Shan smiled, "My lord, I really only have three percent interest, it's just calculated according to the hour, it's written in black and white." ”
Tan Hui immediately retorted, "Everyone generally counts by month, you count by the hour, who will pay attention to it!"
"Hour?" Jiang Chuan was a little surprised, "You ...... It doesn't seem to have violated the law, ahem, well, I'll pronounce the sentence now, and the woman should return it......"
"Wait!" a voice sounded, stopping Jiang Chuan's closing of the case from being read out. Bai Ye returned the materials in his hand to the file keeper, got up and walked to the hall, "I just saw that those files say that her husband is a servant in your family!"
Nangong Shan looked at Jiang Chuan with a puzzled face, and then at Bai Ye, "Of course it is, what's the matter?"
"Just admit it. "According to Article 14 of the Regulations of the People's Republic of China on Work-related Injury Insurance, if a worker is injured or dies during his employment, and there is no obvious intentional negligence, the employer must bear the main responsibility. ”
......
Dumbfounded, everyone in the hall was shocked by Bai Ye's words, although they didn't understand it, but it looked really powerful and sounded very reasonable.
Jiang Chuan looked at Luo Yun with puzzled eyes, as if he was asking if there was such a provision in the law. Luo Yun understood the meaning in Jiang Chuan's eyes, pursed his lips, and slowly shook his head.
After a short silence, it was Nangong Shan who woke up first, and found the problem in Bai Yehua, "You just said Huaguo, although I don't know where you came from, but I know that you can't use the laws of other countries to control my Li people!"
At this time, everyone understood that the law that Lord Bai said just now was not from Li Guo, but from Hua Guo, and the problem was here.
Bai Ye had already expected it, and looked at Luo Yun unhurriedly, "Our Li Kingdom should have regulations on work-related injuries." ”
Luo Yun quickly thought about it in his mind, and then nodded firmly, "Yes, the owner is responsible for the casualties of the workers, such as medical treatment, funeral, family placement, etc. ”
At this time, Nangong Shan, who realized that something was wrong, turned his eyes on Jiang Chuan, "Lord Jiang, you have to be the master of the villain! I will definitely repay you well in the future!" He bit the two "good" words very hard, and seemed to have something else.
Bai Ye, who didn't have much patience, glanced at Jiang Chuan, who was still hesitant, and walked up to the judgment seat, "I declare that in addition to paying for the placement of the dead, Nangong Mountain also needs to give Tan Hui 100,000 copper coins to settle down. ”
Hearing this, Nangong Shan was furious, "You are just a Bai Lingwei, why are you trying me? If you annoy me, even if the Heavenly King Lao Tzu comes, he won't be able to protect you! You wait for me!"
"me!" you dare to threaten me!" Bai Ye raised his arms and shouted, "Come on, what should you be guilty of threatening the court officials during the trial?"
When the black-clothed officers and soldiers outside the door heard the call, they all rushed in, "Go back to your lordship, at least ten boards, and at worst thirty boards!"
"Okay!" Bai Ye smiled, "Hit me!"
Before the words fell, an officer and soldier in black feathered clothes dragged two benches up and placed them in parallel. Several other officers and soldiers in black feathered clothes pressed Nangong Mountain the two benches.
"Bai Lingwei, I will grass your ancestor! I will not let you go! In two days, it will be your death!Hahahaha!" Nangong Shan struggled violently, and the purple sand teapot in his hand was also broken. He didn't know Bai Ye's name, so he could only call the official name.
Bai Ye was also on fire, if it weren't for his identity, he would have been eager to rush down and fight, but now he could only say angrily, "The criminal threw things during the trial! What should he be guilty of?"
"Your Excellency, you will be fined ten sticks and 300 copper. ”
"Okay, add the ten sticks to me, and now he will add thirty sticks when he scolds!"
"Yes!"
......
The sound of "bang, bang, bang" sticks came and went, and the screams were deafening. Although Nangong Mountain didn't look very good, he still had a lot of backbone, and even if he was beaten, he didn't stop insulting.
"Bai Lingwei, you can't die well!
"You, I'm going to hack you to death!"
"Hahahaha, you beat! You beat me to death, your whole family will be buried with you!"
"Little Bai Lingwei, when my son comes back, I'll let him kill you Quanjia!"
“......”
"I ...... Lord Bai Lingwei, don't fight, I know it's wrong!"
"Ahh......h Don't beat me, I know it's wrong, Lord Bai! Don't fight! Beat me to death!"
"Please, Lord Bai!"
“......”
Only three minutes later, Nangong Mountain fainted.
"Oh, it's boring. Bai Ye stretched and walked out of the trial hall. Although the trial has been completed, he still feels that the aftertaste is still there, "I didn't expect to be so cool to be an official, punish evil and promote good, haha! Comfortable! Damn, that fat worm still dares to threaten me, I'm tired from fighting, go and treat myself to a good meal." ”
Just now he saw that those officers and soldiers in black feathered clothes were too light, and Nangong Shan could still curse people while being beaten, so he personally held the stick, and only after two sticks, Nangong Shan began to forgive. It was very refreshing when I played, but I felt a little tired after playing.
......
Jiang Chuan saw Bai Ye leaving, and hurriedly shouted, "Don't fight, don't fight, drag Nangong Mountain down, and then call the doctor in the medical hall to come and see him, don't let him die." ”
Hearing the order, the officers and soldiers in black feathered clothes who were still wielding sticks immediately surrendered their hands, "Yes!
Soon, all the people and things in the trial hall were withdrawn, leaving only Jiang Chuan and Luo Yun.
Jiang Chuan glanced at Luo Yun dissatisfied, and said in a deep voice, "What are you gesturing to stop me from doing just now?" I agreed with Nangong Mountain at the beginning, and he also gave me tens of thousands of copper coins, and now he has received money from others, and let him be beaten like this, how will we do business in the future?"
Luo Yunyin smiled, "Hehe, my lord, this may not be a good thing, our plan to send people to assassinate is still a little flawed in the end, but now Bai Ye has formed a bond with Nangong Mountain, and now we don't need to do it, his son is a member of Wudingmen, isn't it good to borrow a knife to kill people?"
"Oh! I see, so that's the case!Hahahaha, it's worthy of a unicorn, witty!" Jiang Chuan, who was relaxed, leaned on the table and drank tea, "Don't say it, the money for hiring a killer is quite expensive, so we can have a sum of money left." ”
Hearing this, Luo Yun hurriedly responded, "My lord, don't do it, you can't save this money, even if you don't have to deal with Bai Ye, you still have to deal with those dogs in Black Wind Village, the dogs are big, fat, and will bite, and now, it's time to slaughter." ”
Hearing this, Jiang Chuan thought for a while, "Well, what you said is reasonable. Then he nodded in agreement and sighed, "It's still the master's thoughtfulness." ”
