7 scary Magnolia
Day 3.
"Recruit or not?" You Xian Ling sat upright in the lobby and looked at Liu Meng who was pressed to the ground under the hall.
"Xiaomin really ......" Liu Meng cried bitterly, he really regretted it at the moment.
"Fight ...... again"
He Mulan watched the promotion process of You County Order speechlessly, and was dumbfounded by the simple and rude method of ancient trials.
It's really enjoyable.
Liu Yu'an used his death to frame Liu Meng without success, but he successfully used his death to arouse people's attention to the case of "Liu Meng's plot to seize family wealth".
As an outsider who had witnessed the dispute between the two sides and was the last outsider to get along with Liu Yu'an, He Mulan also participated in the court trial, but she was a witness and had an official position, so she was able to stand in the court and watch Liu Meng suffer.
The promotion of the hall is to record confessions, and He Mulan naturally will not pit Mulan's cousin who is far away at the border, so he wrote the name of "Mulan" in a dignified manner, and the clerk couldn't help but be taken aback when he saw this name, and then whispered.
After He Mulan finished talking about why she went to Liu's house, what she saw and heard in Liu's house, and what Liu Yu'an had complained about her, You County Ling ordered Liu Meng's family again, and arranged for Liu Meng to rent Liu Yu'antian's villagers. The Chinese people of that year had already moved away from Liu Jiaji, and it would take a few days to find him back, but You County ordered Shiji to go down with a buttocks cane against Liu Meng, and Liu Meng still explained where the scholar who wrote the document for him lived in.
These few pieces of evidence are actually complete, the villagers who matched the two families were originally well-intentioned, no one knew that it would become like this, even Liu Yu'an died, and now he naturally honestly said that it was the father of the deceased who rented the land to Liu Meng's family to plant.
But all scholars hate to provoke lawsuits, and there is no imperial examination here, and being an official depends on promotion, the most important reputation, few literate scholars, willing to write this kind of document that may cause disputes for people they don't know, so there are only a few people who can write documents for Liu Meng, as soon as he confessed that it was written by his wife's uncle's family, and suddenly the squire who heard the trial outside the hall all "Oh".
'This cliff is deliberate! ’
He Mulan looked at You Xianling and kept asking Liu Meng some trivial questions, as long as Liu Meng couldn't say it clearly or hesitated slightly, he called the soap under the hall to walk the cane, and couldn't help but laugh in his heart.
Unexpectedly, this county order is also a jealous and hateful, although it will not be judged in vain, but it is okay to make this kind of wicked person suffer ruthlessly.
Because the evidence was basically complete, Liu Meng was beaten dozens of times before and after, even if he was a strong man, he couldn't stand it, and then he almost asked what to say in the county order, and he didn't even dare to hesitate.
In ancient times, only "law", "precedent" and "sentence" were mostly in the hands of the magistrate, that is, how to judge and how to sentence was based on the law of the judge according to his own experience and likes and dislikes.
You County Commander is an ancient man through and through, and his style of acting is the style of ancient officials. He lost his father at a young age, although he was born in a high-ranking family, but his family was poor, and he grew up with clan support when he was a child.
He hated this kind of oppression of lonely people the most, and he pitied a pair of children of the Liu family, so he sentenced Liu Meng heavily, causing the audience outside the court to applaud.
Liu Meng plotted to rob other people's property, and was sentenced to be assigned to the border pass to repair the city wall, and he had to serve 270 days of hard labor every year. In addition to destroying the fake title deed in court and returning the land to the Liu family, the You County Order also ruled to compensate Liu Meng's family for half of the family property not to be included in the clan, and the clan should bear the responsibility of raising the two children of the Liu family, as well as the future marriage, and raising the family property until adulthood, and this family property will be used by the clan to raise the old and the young.
With such a verdict, everyone in the Liu family will fight to raise the two children left by the Liu family.
The confiscation of the family property in the back belongs to the sentence imposed by Liu Meng because of sympathy in You County.
It's just that everyone is happy with this punishment, and no one questions it, which can be described as "humane" to the extreme.
Liu Yu'an finally wants to return to his own field, in an embarrassing way.
And Hermulan was able to witness an ancient lawsuit in the form of a participant.
"Investigation", "Torture", "Search for Witnesses and Exhibits", "Interrogation", "Verdict", "Execution", ...... The ancient county government yamen was almost a combination of public security and law, which also made He Mullan admire this ancient yamen very much.
At this time, whether a case will be unjustly adjudicated, and whether it can be judged well, depends on whether the chief officer is unconscious or not.
This You County Commander is obviously a sympathetic, but not overkill, and has his own wisdom, and He Mullan admires him very much.
It's a pity that in order to avoid suspicion, You Xianling didn't communicate much with He Mulan, and although he used He Mulan's set of autopsy reports and conclusions to interrogate and close the "Liu Yu'an suicide case", he didn't mention anything related to "Mulan" in the file and case.
The Han people pay more attention to the ethics of women than the Xianbei people, since the Qin and Han dynasties, all the works are lowly people, and no one is willing to be cheap to learn these things or take this as a proud thing.
You County Ling did this to protect Mulan, so He Mulan received this love.
The case was very light, He Mulan and Hua Xiaodi stayed in Yucheng for five or six days, and You County Ling considered that they were Xianbei people and Hua Mulan's identity was special, so he did not let them live in the mansion with other witnesses during the trial, but arranged to live in the house of the head of the place.
Because Brother Hua is responsible for raising horses and planting military fields on weekdays, he rarely comes to Yucheng, before going back, He Mulan and Brother Hua walked around the market here, bought some vegetable seeds and salt and other things back to their hometown.
It is worth mentioning that they didn't bring anything with them when they went out, and there was no copper coin circulation in the early years of the Northern Wei Dynasty. [,! It is all thanks to a few cotton handkerchiefs and some gadgets on Hermulan.
Do you want to sue them that they have already wiped their mouths and sweat?
Forget it, let's not talk about it.
On the way back to his hometown, the little brother of Hua was in a state that was not quite right.
Although He Mulan is not the sister of Brother Hua, and she has not gotten along with Brother Hua much, but Brother Hua runs before and after for her on weekdays, serving tea and water, filling the tank and boiling hot water every day, no matter how cold she is, she can't turn a blind eye to him.
So Hermulan spoke:
"Little Brother ......"
As if startled by Hermulan's voice, Hua Mutuo slipped on his horse, and almost immediately shook his body straight, and continued to control the reins forward.
The equestrian and horse reactions are really good, worthy of a young man who has been raising horses.
He Mulan admired the riding skills of the little brother of the Hua family in his heart, and then said:
"What the hell are you trying to ask me? Say it."
I have been hesitant to say something, and it looks like I am constipated and I want to have diarrhea.
She asked him a few times if he was in a hurry to stop, but he said no, then he must have something to say.
Little Brother Hua had a suddenly distressed expression, as if something that shouldn't have been discovered had been discovered, and as if he was glad that his sister had discovered his love.
Just after Brother Hua's expression of "constipation is smooth" or "diarrhea is really clean" passed, he said in a low voice:
"Sister, why do you know how to look at the wounds of the dead?"
If it's a war, you can kill it, and you don't need to check your injuries, right?
Could it be that she has been exposed to murders and suicides on a regular basis?
I heard that there are many spies in Rouran, and there are also many spies in the army. Rouran and Xianbei people look about the same, could it be that my sister has also met this mechanical man?
It's a pity that Hermulan can't answer this question from Little Brother Hua.
So she was silent for a moment, and then she was not sure of her own words:
"Probably, because I've seen more?"
Mulan must have seen a lot of dead people, after all, she has been fighting for twelve years. That's probably right.
Little Brother Hua's face suddenly turned pale, so white that He Mulan asked in his heart whether the answer he said was really so terrible?
The man of the Hua family seems to be very afraid of dead bodies.
A child from a military family is afraid of death, which is simply the biggest drawback.
The road back to Yingguo Township from Yucheng became very quiet, and Little Brother Hua seemed to have been indulging in "terrible words", imagining it infinitely, so that when they returned home, Yuan saw his son's not very good face, and hurriedly looked up and down.
"What's wrong, what's wrong! When I saw that you had been gone for so many days, and another person from the head came back to ask us to pack up our clothes, I felt bad, and your grandfather was also waiting at the door every day, regretting that I had let Mu Tuo go with me......"
As soon as Yuan finished speaking, he realized that there was something wrong with what he said, and it sounded as if he felt that their family valued Hua Xiaodi more, and looked at his daughter "Mulan" with some anxiety in his heart.
He Mulan did not show a hurt expression, but comforted Yuan with a smile: "No, You County Ling is a good official, and the case is very clear. My brother may be a little bed-conscious and not very well-rested, right?"
She wouldn't tell his parents that her proud son was a guy who saw the corpse spitting out bile!
Hehe, cheap brother, thank you for your "sister's" understanding!
Hua Mutuo was stunned for a moment and kept nodding.
Yuan Shi breathed a sigh of relief, I don't know if it was because Songqi's daughter didn't care about her words, or because Songqi Yu Huamutuo didn't suffer.
He Mulan is not really Mulan, so naturally he will not be hurt. And her family is more partial to her younger self than her brother who is a man, so she doesn't have much feeling for the younger brother who is more worried about the Hua family.
It is very difficult for parents to really think about a bowl of water, and how to look at this problem depends on how they choose. People's hearts are flesh and blood, who said they don't care about Mulan?
It's just that Mulan has been away from home for 12 years, and they get along more closely with Hua's younger brother and become stylish towards Mulan.
Father Hua sat on a small stone pier by the door, and only knew that he kept saying "It's good to come back" and "It's okay", He Mulan's nose didn't know why it was sour, and his eyes were red.
Her own father is an old policeman, in fact, he is also a flower father, on the one hand, he is proud of the heavy social responsibility of the whole family in the public security system, and on the other hand, he is worried about the safety of her and her brother, every time they go home after the case, he has to wait for a long time, repeatedly chanting "just come back".
She's a little homesick.
Fang, who was holding her two-year-old daughter on the side, changed the depression that she usually saw herself, and hurriedly came up with the child from the house, without first seeing if her husband was good, but looked her up and down, muttering "Thank God", and handed the two-year-old daughter in her arms to Brother Hua, and chattered with him that when he was not at home, he worked hard to grow vegetables at home and feed Ma Duo.
When Little Brother Hua took out a box of new rouge bought at the market from her arms, she immediately put away her complaints and laughed.
This made Hermulan begin to touch the other side of Fang's.
belongs to her age, and still has the side of a girl's heart.
Everybody's a good person.
Perhaps it was such an ordinary and somewhat chatty life that made the heroine of the battlefield finally choose to return to her hometown
[,! That's what Mulan wants.
Why does she always feel sorry for Mulan?
