Chapter 397: Blind to the end
Inside and outside the state office, quite a lot of people gathered, probably more than a thousand people. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoBecause for the first time in spring this year, Master Cai Qian was promoted.
It was not the promotion of De 1 County, but the fact that the state government personally promoted the court to review the case of Ding Er's demonic words to confuse the public, which shows that the state government attaches great importance to the task of Huashigang and does not allow any mistakes.
This is a must, although he Cai Qian is not promoted by the Ying Feng Bureau, but the Ying Feng Bureau and Hua Shigang's career, it is his father who single-handedly controls the emperor, through the interest chain of the Ying Feng Bureau, at least more than half of the Cai Party officials are benefiting, this is an untouchable opening.
A few knowledgeable people in the audience thought that Ding Er was probably going to be executed this time, and his shouting really touched the nerves of a large group of cattle people.
"Jiangzhou Tong judged that Gao Fangping arrived!"
In the shouting, hurriedly, many people outside the state government dispersed to make way, and for the first time in his life, the Great Demon King put on a new purple official robe and came with his hands on his back.
"Hey, he's really here."
"Could it be reversed, he is here to speak for Xiucai?"
"If he doesn't speak for Xiucai, what will he do when he comes to the state government. As long as he doesn't come, officials and officials will be reciprocal, and he won't add to the chaos. When he came, it meant that he was going to use the power of the General Judgment Division to fight against the state government. ”
"It makes sense, it seems that there is a good show to watch this time, one official has two mouths, and two officials have four mouths, see how they pull the calves."
Among the countless onlookers, there was a whispered discussion.
There was Ding Er's righteous assertion before, and this time Gao Fangping took office in Jiangzhou in the early days, he put on a guard of honor and drove to the state government to fight against Taiwan. This situation filled the people with curiosity, and at the same time, it also activated some of the hearts they had deposited for too long......
The killing rod that had just risen in the lobby of the state government knocked on the ground, and it stopped awkwardly because of Gao Fangping's sudden arrival. Because he can't kill Gao Fangping, at least Master Cai Qi in the hall has no right to kill Gao Fangping, unless his father ascends to the court, he can kill Gao Fangping.
Yang Hui, the judicial officer of Lietang, Xu Yongjie, the judge of Jiangzhou, and a group of scribes, including the clerk, also hurriedly got up and saluted Gao Fangping, although it was superficial work, it was still quite in place.
Cai Qian sat on the high hall and frowned and said, "Lord Tongju, why did you suddenly come to the state office?" ”
"It's nothing, let's listen to Lord Zhizhou's question." Gao Fangping said and walked up.
Cai Qian was depressed for a while, but in desperation, he had to nod slightly to his entourage, and then someone immediately sent a chair and placed it next to Cai Qian in the main hall. The form is also like in the Gao Tang Dynasty, Gao Fangping and Pei Yancheng were on the same stage.
After sitting down, seeing Gao Fangping staring at the Tang Mu placed on the table, Cai Qian hurriedly picked it up and put it on his left hand side to prevent Gao Fangping from accidentally being blinded by it.
Seeing Gao Fangping's strange look again, Cai Qian said in a low voice: "Don't think too much about it, it's really because you like to fool around in the officialdom and have a bad official reputation, not that this hall intends to target you." ”
"You know too much." Gao Fangping said with a smile.
Cai Qian didn't want to talk to this bad boy anymore, so he knocked on the wood and said, "Take someone to commit Ding Er!" ”
Gao Fangping was coldly knocked by this knock and jumped up in fright.
Sweat. The two adults, the judge and the judicial officer, looked strange, how do you think of it, how can this Gao Fangping look like a criminal, he would actually be afraid of the sound of the knocking of the tree?
Cai You also found out about this, so he deliberately knocked it again, and saw that Gao Fangping was scared again, so Cai You smiled gloomily, remained silent, and found a way to deal with Xiao Gao.
When Ding Er, who was beaten very badly and was still bleeding from his back, was brought to the hall, Gao Fangping jumped over and wanted to rob Cai Qian's Tangmu.
But Cai You, who had been prepared for a long time, hurriedly picked it up in his hand, but Xiao Gao didn't grab it.
"Master Gao, you are too disagreeable, what are you trying to do, what are you doing with your official body and pulling my clothes?" Cai Qian slapped Tangmu again.
Gao Fangping was taken aback again.
Randomly looked at Ding Er, Gao Fangping was just about to speak, Cai Qian squinted his eyes, and raised the hall wood to knock it down.
"Okay, you win, don't knock, I won't speak, just watch." Gao Fangping hurriedly shook his hand.
Cai Qian nodded with satisfaction, hid Tangmu in his left sleeve, and asked, "Ding Er, this time I didn't come to you to ask about the case, the case has been reconciled." You incite the people in public, disrespect the officials, and smear and slander the entire Jiangnan officialdom, your heart and motives can be punished. All the witnesses have been present, and there are not 1,000 but 500, which you cannot deny at all. Therefore, the mention of you this time is just a sentence. First of all, do you plead guilty to slandering and slandering officials? If he pleads guilty and apologizes and repents, he will be given a lighter sentence, and if he does not admit it, he will be convicted by the state government according to the law. ”
Ding Er shook his head weakly and said, "I don't admit it, Ding Er is not guilty." What I am saying is the truth that I know, and I am just stating and not spreading rumors. If it is not a rumor-mongering, how can there be an accusation of slander? ”
"Nerd, you've really been reading for two years. Since you claim that you are stating the facts, bring it. Cai Qian sneered and stretched out his hand and said, "This hall wants evidence." If there is no evidence to prove that you said in front of hundreds of people that you have embezzled royal funds, you are really insulting the cause of the royal Huashigang, spreading rumors, and slandering important officials! ”
Ding Erluo was stunned, became hesitant for a while, and remembered something.
After Cai Qian smiled slightly, he turned his head to look at the clerk and said: "Record the verdict process, as well as the judgment of this official: Ding Er has no evidence, and the rumors and slander should be the bureau, but the entire southeast officialdom, forming the crime of slandering and slandering officials." According to the law of the Great Song Dynasty, rumor-mongers were given warnings and punishments. Those who slander and slander officials and do not form a bad consequence under normal conditions shall be punished with a cane of 15 without punishment. Those who spread rumors to an audience of more than 100 people are considered to have a strong impact. Where the audience of more than 500 people is spread by rumors, it is considered that the circumstances are heinous and the impact is extremely serious, and the crime of defaming officials is formally constituted. ”
Turning his head to look at the scribe who was also listed as a witness on the side, Cai Qian asked, "How many people were there at the scene at that time?" ”
"Back to Zhizhou, at least more than 500 people." A clerk from the Ying Feng Bureau hugged his fist.
Gao Fangping was depressed for a while, this is the trouble of not being familiar with the business. Damn, it's really not like a pat on the head to be an official, Da Song is the same as later generations, is there really a punishment for being convicted after being circulated more than 500 times after spreading rumors? However, Gao Fangping did not familiarize himself with the law, so he didn't know if there really was one.
Cai Qian looked at Gao Fangping and said: "The general judgment of the adult is rich and rich, and he is a rare talent in Tokyo, is there anything wrong with the law cited by this hall?" ”
Gao Fangping looked at Ding Er, and saw Ding Er nodding slightly helplessly, which shows that there is really such a law. So Gao Fangping touched his chin and said embarrassedly: "The citation of the law doesn't seem to be inappropriate on the surface......
At this point, Cai You suddenly attacked, knocked down the hall wood and scared Gao Fangping to hide under the table, and then Cai You pronounced the verdict: "Ding Er read the book of sages in vain, did not think of serving the country and enterprising, wantonly smeared the official government, insulted the royal family, in fact, formed the crime of offending the royal family, slandering and slandering officials, and his attitude was bad and stubborn, he refused to admit his guilt, and there was no mitigating circumstance." According to the law of the Great Song Dynasty, the parish sentenced him to 30 canes, stabbed 1,000 li, deprived of his meritorious body, and repented for three years before returning to his hometown, and the case was decided. ”
After the clerk's record came into effect, someone stepped forward and ripped off Ding Er's cuffs, saying that he would deprive Xiucai of his body, and then put him on the ground to prepare to carry out the killing procedure.
The hundreds of ordinary people who were forced to testify were really helpless, and now it's good, damn Gao Fangping was so comically frightened that he hid under the table.
When Cai Qian put down Tangmu and twisted his beard to take a breath, Gao Fangping rushed out from under the table and took the Tangmu on the table.
"Wait!" Gao Fangping knocked down the hall wood, drank back the messenger who was about to hit the board, and said blindly: "Lord Zhizhou doesn't know if he was caught in the skull by the door last night......
Gao Fangping couldn't finish speaking, and many people in the entire lobby couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh. It's hard work.
Cai Qian couldn't help but be furious, and after slapping the table and finding that it was useless, he hurriedly went to grab Gao Fangping's tangmu, but he couldn't grab it.
After rearranging the rhetoric, Gao Fangping continued to ramble: "Lord Zhizhou's determination in this case is too arbitrary, and many facts are not clear enough. The citation of the law must be based on the premise that the facts of the case are correct, otherwise it will be the persecution of Zhang Guan and Li Dai. ”
Cai Qian said angrily: "Why is the case not clear enough in this hall, but your Qualcomm sentence is talking about it, I will listen to it?" ”
Gao Fangping looked at the hundreds of kneeling people who were present as witnesses in the back and said: "The so-called lone evidence does not stand, in this case, our company attended as an observer, and only heard witnesses from beginning to end, but did not see any physical evidence. It is true that according to the law of the Great Song Dynasty, if the witnesses are credible, and the number of witnesses has nothing to do with each other and reaches a certain number, a forcible conviction is supported. However, in the course of the trial, the officer found that the witnesses in this case were all ordinary people who had never read a book, and their understanding, memory, and judgment in this regard were worrisome. Based on this, the Division believes that there are flaws in the process of adjudicating the case of the state government, and there is a suspicion of 'inducing confessions'. ”
Gao Fangping looked at the scribe in question and said, "Suspect Ding Er, how many words did you have at that time?" ”
The scribe didn't know what to do for a while, and without waiting for Cai Qian to nod, he said, "It's a lot, it's fast." Every sentence is rebellious, and the humble duty is recited by recitation. ”
So, he recited hundreds of words fluently.
Gao Fangping looked at the clerk with a cold face and said, "Has it been recorded?" ”
"Documented." The clerk nodded with a smug look.
Gao Fangping smiled slightly, looked at a group of big-headed people who were forced to be witnesses, and said, "Recite them all for me, and you can't miss a word." It is important to know that our Han culture is broad and profound, with multiple meanings for one word, multiple meanings for one word, and sometimes the tone, context, and different pauses between a sentence can produce completely different meanings. As a basis for convicting a person who has made a name for himself in a dynasty, it must be clear to the magistrate that you are sufficiently qualified to judge what you have heard, so that you can be convicted by testimony without evidence in black and white. Whoever makes a mistake in a word, who makes a mistake in tone, who makes a mistake in the context and voice, who cannot remember what you heard, is excluded from the case for the sake of justice. If there is a word difference between the testimony and the clerk's record, don't blame the official for being unsympathetic, teasing the court, perjury, and framing Xiucai, but it is not a small crime! ”
As soon as these words came out, including Cai Qian, the soldiers, judges, clerks, and directors of the Lietang, countless people, all changed color.
