Before the Xuande Gate of the Song Imperial City

The weather is sunny after the rain, and the sky is also sunny after the snow.

After a night of heavy snowfall, the city wall, city tower, roof, and roof of Kaifeng Mansion were all covered with a thick layer of plain clothing, just like Li Sanjian's white clothes and white crown.

The entire Kaifeng Prefecture in Tokyo has also become a world of jade and silver carvings.

Several rays of golden sunlight pierced the thick clouds and shone on the vast snow, almost making people unable to open their eyes, shining on Li Sanjian standing on the high platform, shining Li Sanjian standing with a sword like a god.

After Li Sanjian opened his mouth and waved his hand to stop the noisy voices of the onlookers, he said slowly: "I am a big Song Minglu, and the robbers have stolen money for 300 years, and they are all executed; and the bearer of the rod, regardless of whether he has any stolen goods or not, shall be put to death; The robbers got rich for three years, and they ran through five hundred and three thousand miles. Two runs through five hundred texts plus one class, ten runs through the hanging, that is, the sin is flowing, all of which are worthy of thousands of miles; Whoever hurts someone because of rape, and whoever hurts someone because of theft, is hanged; The prisons are guarding the Lord and stealing, and stealing the goods of the prisons, and the sins are streamed, and they are worthy of the state, and they are hanged with thirty-five horses. ”

In addition to the major crimes of rebellion, the main crimes of the Song Dynasty were robbery, theft, homicide, burning or taking away the property of the house, fornication, and embezzlement.

Zhao Xin's crimes are enough for any of them, and any of them are enough for capital crimes, so Li Sanjian listed six crimes and six killings for him.

Zhao Xin accumulates weapons to raise Ding, if Li Sanjian insists on giving him the crime of rebellion, it is also reasonable, but it can be argued for a long time.

"Color!"

"Damn it!"

"It's cheaper to kill him."

"Color! Color! Color! ”

Every time Li Sanjian listed a crime, the people under the platform erupted in cheers, and the sound was wave after wave, and the sound shook Kaifeng Mansion.

Li Sanjian then tidied up his clothes, looked at the crowded crowd, and said slowly and loudly: "You have noticed the plain clothes on this official, right?" That's right, today the official is not wearing an official uniform, but a filial piety uniform, you may be curious, why does the official wear filial piety clothes instead of official clothes? Strange who is the official Dai Xiao? ”

Li Sanjian then paused and then said loudly: "This official Dai Xiao is not for others, let alone a thief who has lost his conscience for this, but for the people, for the people who died in his hands, some of the female babies who died are not enough... I'm not even ten years old. ”

Li Sanjian's voice was choked up and he talked about the girls who were killed, and the anger in his heart was even more blazing, and he was angry and angry.

"Canglang!" With a sound, Li Sanjian pulled out his sword and pointed at Zhao Xin and the others and said angrily: "As a judge of Kaifeng Prefecture, this official is in charge of criminal lawsuits, and he has received the grace of God and the country, how can this thief be allowed to harm the people like this?" How can this thief be allowed to trample on my Great Song Dynasty law like this? If this thief is not removed, heaven will not tolerate it! If this thief is not removed, the people will not be at peace! If this thief is not eliminated, how can we clear the injustice and prohibit violence? If this thief is not removed, I am ashamed to see the world! ”

Li Sanjian's white clothes fluttering, standing with a sword, pointing at Zhao Xin and angrily reprimanding, looking unusually handsome and chic, and righteous and awe-inspiring.

Isn't it the rain to go to the clothes, the moon shadow spring is long!

"Color! What a champion! ”

"What an upright and loyal Li Sanlang!"

"The mirror is hanging high, Judge Li is really my great Song Qingtian master!"

When everyone heard this, they cheered loudly and praised Li Sanjian. Some were even moved to tears.

Li Sanjian then took out the official seal, held it in his hand and said loudly: "Today, I, Li Sanjian, will fight hard to be an official of the imperial court, and I will also get rid of this thief and avenge the people!" ”

"People have committed Zhao Xin and other crimes, which is outrageous, but he is the son of the sect, according to the law of my Great Song Dynasty, he can break the staff, so this official decided to have seventeen canes on his spine today, come here, please use the staff!" Li Sanjian then loudly ordered Shankui, Xu Biao and others.

In any case, Li Sanjian must follow the Song law, otherwise he will be even more passive, at least he will not be able to escape the crime of knowing the law and breaking the law and breaking prison indiscriminately.

Of course, Li Sanjian is not completely in accordance with the Song law, if it is completely in accordance with the Song law, then Zhao Xin will be transferred to the Criminal Department, the Great Zong Zhengsi or the Zong Zheng Division, and after the Holy Judgment is played, it will be over, so Li Sanjian will bring Zhao Xin to justice and impose punishment no matter what, even if he is dismissed from office, detained and imprisoned, Li Sanjian will not hesitate, otherwise Li Sanjian will not be able to face those frightened eyes.

At the same time, Li Sanjian would not be impulsive to kill Zhao Xin on the spot, the beheading was Song Shenzhi's cautious punishment, and Li Sanjian did not dare to act rashly.

After receiving the order, Shan Kui, Xu Biao and the others took out five black and red staffs.

The staff of the Song cane punishment shall be three feet five inches long, the width of the big head shall not exceed two inches, the thickness and diameter of the small head shall not exceed nine points, and the weight shall not exceed fifteen taels. Wonderful Pen Court

Such a staff generally cannot beat people, of course, generally speaking, it is not allowed to kill people alive, it mainly depends on the person who tortured, if the person who tortures is determined to beat the person who is tortured to death, then no one can escape death.

Since the Sui and Tang dynasties, the five punishments of the past dynasties have five kinds of flogging punishments, cane punishments, hanging punishments, beheading punishments, etc., and the flogging punishment is the lightest punishment, which is divided into five grades, namely flogging 10, flogging 20, flogging 30, flogging 40, and flogging 50. The cane is the lesser punishment.

As the name suggests, the spine cane is a cane punishment imposed on the back of a criminal, because it hits people's backs, it generally has to bleed, so it is very easy to cripple people. The buttock cane generally does not injure a person because it only hits the buttocks, so it can be seen that the spine cane is much heavier than the hip cane.

Therefore, no matter which yamen, there are generally special people who give the staff, but today Li Sanjian ordered Shankui, Xu Biao and other five people to be the people who gave the staff.

Zhao Xin, Zhou Fanggeng and the other five people saw that they had raised their staffs, and they all showed panic, Zhao Xin struggled desperately, and a series of mumping sounds came out of the blocked mouth.

Zhao Xin was also punished with a rod in the main division of the Great Sect, but it was a dragonfly and a little water, and it was completely perfunctory and did not hurt the muscles and bones, but at this time, Zhao Xin had already seen a trace of coldness in Li Sanjian's eyes, so he couldn't help but tremble.

If you can survive these seventeen canes today, everyone will go their own way in the future, and it will have nothing to do with it, Li Sanjian looked at Zhao Xin, who was struggling, and sneered in his heart.

Li Sanjian then used a red pen to approve the torture documents.

This move shows that Li Sanjian's move has nothing to do with others, and Shankui, Xu Biao, Wu Miaoshan and others are just acting on orders.

After the torture formalities were completed, the five strong men personally selected by Li Sanjian, such as Shan Kui and Xu Biao, walked towards Zhao Xin and the others with their magic staff in both hands.

Seeing this, the onlookers immediately fell silent, and the scene was silent and silent.

It is extremely rare to be punished with a cane in public, and it is extremely rare to be a son of a sect, a prince of Wei, and an official of the imperial court, so everyone is wide-eyed, for fear of missing this once-in-a-lifetime scene.

However, some people secretly speculated in their hearts that almost no one had ever died with a cane in the past, so they speculated that Li Sanjian would easily let go of Zhao Xin and others?

"Slow down!" Just as everyone was holding their breath, a white-bearded and purple-robed court official panting "Zongma" rushed outside the Xuande Gate, and before he got off the horse, he immediately shouted.

"Old Mansion Zun!" Li Sanjian was speechless when he saw the comer, he wanted to cut through the chaos quickly, he didn't want to alarm Lu Changheng, but he didn't have to think about it, he still rushed to stop him.

Saying that he made such a big battle, it is almost impossible to hide it from the prefect of a mansion, Li Sanjian thought about it.

Li Sanjian was speechless, and Lu Changheng was even more speechless, plus dissatisfaction, anger, depression and panic, and some couldn't cry or laugh.

It's only been a long time, Li Sanjian actually made such a big deal again... It's only been a few days since the last time he made a big fuss in the public mansion, and the matter has not completely subsided, and this time he led people to make trouble in Xuandemen? Lu Changheng thought angrily and anxiously.

The judge of the Kaifeng Prefecture led people to be tortured in public outside the Xuande Gate, what is this? This is clearly for the court and the emperor to see, and it is dissatisfaction with the court and His Majesty, which is simply unheard of and appalling.

The fire at the city gate affected the pond fish, if the imperial court really investigates it, Lu Changheng will also be responsible, at least the joint crimes such as negligence of subordinates will not be able to escape.

The key is that Li Sanjian actually did this on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, I don't know what he thinks, it's really crazy, Lu Changheng said secretly in his heart.

Lu Changheng is old, sleep is very poor, it is not easy to fall asleep at night, early in the morning as soon as he heard that Li Sanjian led people to Xuande Gate to torture in public, he was immediately frightened and crawled out of bed, and came to Xuande Gate on a horse in disheveled clothes.

said that it was a horse, but in fact, it was a horseman leading the horse, but even so, it turned Lu Changheng upside down, but at this time, he couldn't take care of much, and after being helped off the horse by his entourage, he walked quickly to Li Sanjian and shouted loudly: "Li Sanjian, what do you want?" ”

"Didn't Fuzun see it?" Li Sanjian replied with a very indifferent expression.

"Li Sanjian, the imperial court has its own laws, Your Majesty only judges, as a judge of the government, you do not go to the court, ignore the laws of the court, and punish without authorization, what is the reason?" Lu Changheng asked angrily when he heard this.

"The Mansion is respectful!" Li Sanjian replied when he heard this: "As a judge of Kaifeng Mansion, isn't Li executing the laws of the imperial court?" What does it mean to disregard the laws of the imperial court? ”

"You..." Lu Changheng's white beard fluttered, and he said anxiously and angrily: "The matter of the sect should be decided by the great sect and judged by His Majesty, but you make your own opinions, aren't you ignoring the laws of the imperial court?" ”

"Don't worry, don't worry!" Lu Changheng was old, and Li Sanjian was afraid that he would be angry, so he said in a gentle voice: "Last year, Li arrested this thief, but this year this thief came out to do evil, fake the name of the thief, kidnap the ticket for extortion, and harm the people, so, can Li still hand over this thief to the main division of the sect?" ”

"This..." Lu Changheng was speechless, and glared at Zhao Xin and the others fiercely.

This is really too much, he just escaped punishment, but he was restless for a few days, and he came out to cause trouble, and he also got into trouble with Li Sanjian, a master who is not afraid of heaven and earth, he really deserves to be unlucky.

Lu Changheng said with hatred in his heart.
