Chapter 271: I am the daughter of the Taiyuan royal family
"I've seen Li Qincha...!"
Before the south gate, Li Zhan and Cui Zhiwen finally met, but this meeting was not pleasant, because behind Cui Zhiwen was a group of Lanzhou soldiers with weapons in their hands.
"Cui Tingshi... Are you trying to rebel? Li Zhan looked at the Lanzhou soldier with a weapon on the opposite side and asked lightly.
"Lord Qincha, this is to beat me upside down, you besieged my Lanzhou City for no reason, and said that I was the one who wanted to rebel?" Cui Zhiwen was unhurried and looked at Li Zhan with a pair of fierce eyes.
Here, Li Zhan rode on a horse and said: "The soldiers are besieging Lanzhou City, don't you know what the reason is?" β
"I don't know...!" Cui Zhiwen replied lightly.
"Your son and the children of other families in the city have to carry out a hunt every month, don't you know?" Li Zhan looked at Cui Zhiwen coldly.
Cui Zhiwen nodded: "The old minister knows... But that's the reason why you besieged Lanzhou City... You may not know that you have committed a taboo and used your military power to besiege my Lanzhou City without authorization, and I will appeal to Your Majesty and accuse you of plotting a rebellion. β
Li Zhan glanced at him coldly: "You can go to the table, but Ben Qincha must let your son obey the law today." β
"What kind of law does this official's son want to do?" Cui Zhiwen also looked at Li Zhan coldly.
"Your son Cui Yujue is a heinous crime, and he should be punished...!" Li Zhan looked at Cui Zhiwen's cold eyes without fear.
"Joke...!" Cui Zhiwen shouted loudly: "Qin Cha can know that the "Tang Law" stipulates... Slaves and sluts, law is better than livestock! β
This question made Li Zhan feel a little tricky, because this slave in the Tang Dynasty could be divided into official slaves and private slaves according to their affiliation. The social status of slaves and maids is extremely low, and they are regarded by their masters as production tools, soldiers, slaves, or playthings for others to play with, and have no personal freedom, and are regarded by their masters as their own property to be bought and sold and gifted at will. The Tang Dynasty also used the form of law to stipulate that the legal status of slaves and maids should be inferior everywhere.
The specific manifestation is that the Tang law stipulates that slaves and maids are cheap, and the law is better than livestock, which is a kind of proof that the law believes that slaves are commodities and have a price.
There is also the criminal law, and the treatment of "good" and "cheap" is unequal. Generally speaking, if a "good person" violates a "slut", the punishment will be lighter than that of ordinary people; "Sluts" who infringe on "good people" are punished more severely than ordinary people.
For example, the "Tang Law" once clearly stipulated that all capital crimes are not ten evils, and if a slave or maid kills the master, it is regarded as one of the "ten evils" of the "great rebellion", even if it is amnesty, it is not within the limit of amnesty.
In terms of sentencing, there is a big difference between a good man and a slave. In the same case of homicide, the master kills a slave or maid without going through the government with only a hundred rods, and kills an innocent slave or maid for only one year. And if the slave or maid kills the master by negligence, he shall be hanged.
It is true that a slave or maid who kills a beloved person must be put to death, and even those who beat their beloved must also be punished with the same punishment as a "mortal".
At this time, I saw Cui Zhiwen looking at Li Zhan again and said: "These slaves killed by my son are all heinous criminals, they were demoted to slaves because they did bad things, and they were bought by my Cui family."
In order to keep the party clean, my children will shoot these slaves to clean up the garbage for Datang, what's wrong with that?
On the contrary, you are innocent soldiers surrounding my Lanzhou City, you are suspected of rebellion, if you don't give an explanation today, the soldiers and civilians of Lanzhou City will never agree. β
"You...!" Li Zhan was stunned, he really didn't expect that this Cui Zhiwen was really sharp-toothed and couldn't say a word about himself.
Just when Li Zhan was speechless.
Xue Wanche on the side 'cut' and said, "I thought this Lord Qincha could say a lot, but I didn't expect it to be similar to me." β
"Poof...!" Because he didn't hold back, Hou Junji on the side laughed.
Li Jing turned around and looked at his half-apprentice and said, "Do you want to die... Telle Biu, Longquan Sword, Qin Wang Kai, this Qincha has a lot of relationship with His Majesty. β
"yes... Be careful, I always feel that he looks too much like a person. Li Daozong looked at Li Zhan in front of him and said to the generals around him: "And if you look closely, you can also see that there are some similarities in appearance, this difference is not simple." β
Li Daliang pricked up his ears and listened for a while and said: "Don't say anything, hurry up and find a way, if Qin Cha can't get off the stage, he really orders to attack Lanzhou City, whether we fight or not." β
Li Jing's brows tightened.
At this moment, Li Zhan spoke up: "Tang Law does have a rule, slaves and maids are sluts, and the law is better than livestock... But if you torture and kill slaves as wild beasts, which is against the harmony of heaven, are you not afraid of retribution? β
"Retribution...?" Cui Zhiwen laughed: "Qincha, the son is silent and not confused, I don't believe in retribution, I only believe in the law of the Tang Dynasty, if you want my son to subdue the law, you have to come up with evidence that can make him subjugate."
Using retribution as evidence to arrest my son Fufa, this Qincha, are you too naΓ―ve? β
"Bold...!" Shadow Elder shouted angrily.
"I'm not bold...!" Cui Zhiwen looked at Li Zhan and said: "What is bold is that this Qincha is arrogant to surround my Lanzhou City with a large army, and want to make my son subjugate the law, but he can't say where my son has violated the law, so he will answer by relying on a sentence of retribution for violating Tianhe."
It's ridiculous... Forget it, I don't want to cause more trouble, now I will leave with your people immediately, and the official will not blame the past, otherwise, don't blame me for Your Majesty. β
"You...!" Li Zhan was speechless again.
At this time, Li Jing came to Li Zhan's side and said, "Qincha... I think let's retreat first, we don't have the support of the law, it's not easy to use swords and guns, if we do, Your Majesty will know, and the Qincha may really not be able to explain clearly. β
"Do you just watch them torture and kill people...?" Li Zhan was very angry, after all, Li Zhan was a modern man and emphasized that everyone was equal, and this kind of abuse and killing really made Li Zhan intolerable. However, in ancient times, it was really difficult to achieve equality for all, and some people would agree with it, but it was difficult to implement.
"It's the torture of slaves, and if they are to torture and kill the people, then... Even Ling Chi Cui Yujue is not an exaggeration, but now that he is abusing and killing slaves, this is a bit troublesome. Li Jing said slightly.
"Hey...!" With a sigh, Li Zhan looked at Li Jing and said: "Wasn't it ridiculous for me just now, you should have known that this was the result, so you would ignore such a thing, and I still boasted to you, saying that we should protect the people of the Tang Dynasty, even if they are slaves." Li Zhan was a little ashamed, and at this time, Li Zhan knew that he still had a lot of shortcomings.
"No... On the contrary, Weichen agrees with Qincha's words, our army of Datang is to protect the people of Datang, and slaves are also the people of Datang, Weichen hopes that one day, Datang will no longer have slaves, and all the people can live in peace in the same position. β
Looking at Li Jing, Li Zhan nodded slightly: "You're right... All right... Order... Remove...! β
Before the 'army' could speak, suddenly, a young but crisp voice sounded: "I am Ru Wei, the queen of the Taiyuan royal family, I am not a slave, but I was tortured and killed by Cui Yujue, please send Qin to be my master." β
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
