In the piercing "squeak" sound, the gate of Dali Temple slowly opened. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Golden sunlight instantly penetrated through the crack in the door, illuminating the doorway, which was still a little gloomy. Slipping in with the sunshine, there were also the eyes of the scholars and people who had long gathered in front of the government office.

At this time, the main hall was still empty, but the anxious eyes had warmed up the atmosphere of Dali Temple in advance. Yesterday, there was such a big commotion in the Chang'an County Ya, and Luo Yan was going to try the case overnight, and everyone wanted to know what the result was.

As for those nobles, for fear of being besieged by the scholars, they could only secretly send servants to report the news at all times.

Since Li Chengqian promised to retry the case, those noble sons and daughters have been re-detained in Dali Temple. People are just waiting for Luo Yan to appear, and the case will be officially tried.

The yamen was wide open for about half an hour, and I saw a small official suddenly appear in the main hall, and shouted anxiously: "Chengguo Gong will come immediately, and you will not come quickly to wait for the messenger." ”

Hearing this, the somewhat tired crowd who were originally standing instantly came to their senses. Looks like this is the rhythm that is about to begin. Although the Luoyan people have not yet arrived, just the hasty assembly of the messengers is enough to make many people tiptoe inside and watch desperately.

It was only half a moment, and Luo Yan's somewhat tired figure moved from the back office to the main hall.

According to the rank of the loose official, Luo Yan, who was wearing a red suit, was heroic, although he was a little slow between walking, but in the eyes of many people, Luo Yan was like a flame at this time. The irrepressible majesty made the originally somewhat noisy crowd suddenly quiet down.

After sitting down, Luo Yan first put the thick stack on the case, and then shouted outside: "Today, Luo Mou, as the chief judge, is acting for the case of the Chivalrous Society." I would like to ask you to witness the process of re-examination. During the trial, onlookers and others are not allowed to make a disturbance, but those who disturb the public court will be temporarily detained. If you feel that you have bent the law for personal gain during the trial, even if you submit a complaint to the six ministries of the three provinces after the trial, Luo will follow one by one. ”

These words made the faces of many onlookers and scholars change: "Could it be that Luo Yan was really bought by these nobles?" ”

However, Luo Yan did not give them time to continue thinking, and after finishing speaking, he said to the messenger: "Bring the son of the Marquis of Yanbian first." ”

The son of the Marquis of Yanbian is only a fifteen or sixteen boy. I was beaten before, but this kid was a hard bone, and he didn't shout at all. Then he took the manpower to fight with the people of the Chivalry Society, and finally did not know each other and joined the Chivalry Society.

This kid doesn't look young, but his hands are also very dark, among the hundreds of cases that Luo Yan has seen, he has been involved in more than 70 cases, and each time he is mainly beaten.

But now that he has been repeatedly imprisoned in Dali Temple, especially knowing that Li Chengqian wants to punish them, this young man can no longer be arrogant. With a dejected face, he was dragged up by the servants, and then stared blankly at the ground.

In this way, Luo Yan looked at it with compassion.

However, there must be something hateful about the poor man, and it is impossible for Luo Yan to leave the victim behind because of his pity.

"You don't have to speak, but you have to listen carefully to what I'm talking about. Last year, you and a cadre from the Chivalry Society injured a seventeen-year-old boy in front of a liquor shop in Jing'anfang. In the first month of this spring, he seriously injured a Hu merchant in Xishi...... Last month, he also injured a taxi in his early twenties at Changle Fang. If you confess these things, you nod your head, and if you don't admit your sin, you shake your head. ”

"I, plead guilty." The boy whispered in a hoarse voice. These things had already been mentioned in the course of the last trial, and although a few more had been added, he had forgotten that he had done too many evil things.

Instead of following those bitter masters to entangle here, and in the end they still can't escape, it's better to confess their sins directly.

"Since you have pleaded guilty, then pronounce the sentence." Nodding to the pen clerk and asking him to record carefully, Luo Yan continued: "The son of the Marquis of Yanbian, who is sixteen years old, is one of the backbone members of the Chivalrous Society. Beating passers-by, picking quarrels and provoking troubles, many bad deeds, depriving him of the right to inherit the title, confiscating the army for three years, and fining him thousands of dollars. ”

The onlookers were stunned.

"So ruthless." A lot of people can't help but think so. Luo Yan's handling this time was so harsh that they couldn't accept it.

"Next, the son of the Marquis."

Xun Shenghou had begged Luo Yan before, this is something that everyone knows, when trying this child, I don't know if Luo Yan will follow his personal feelings, this question is worth looking forward to.

"You only joined the Chivalrous Society in May this year, and according to what I have in my hands, you have been involved in nine assault cases, seven of which were hands-on and two were bluffing. You can plead guilty. ”

The young man nodded, Luo Yan's cold voice had already frightened him, where did he dare to speak.

"In that case, let you guard the gates of the city for three months, and a fine of one month's labour, and a fine of one hundred cents. Next. ”

It has only been less than a month and a half since I followed the Chivalry Society, but the time for punishment will be four months, which is already very powerful. What's more, everyone also heard clearly, this teenager is a side drum at all.

In this way, if there are few cases involved and the joining time is short, Luo Yan will be sentenced to hard labor and defending the city. As for those backbone members, just like the son of the Yanbian Marquis before, they were at least two years in the army, and more for three or four years, and as for the fines, none of them were less than 1,000 yuan.

In the whispered discussion of people, the leader of the Chivalry Society, Liu Jiazi, finally ushered in.

Relying on his aunt being the concubine, the Liu family still has no repentance, and stands there very stubbornly.

Luo Yan smiled inexplicably: "Do you have a knighthood?" ”

Liu Jiazi snorted coldly, but did not answer.

"So, do you have an official position?" Luo Yan asked again.

Liu Jiazi continued to stand without speaking, and Luo Yan asked again: "Have you ever read and written Lile?" ”

Seeing that there was still no response, Luo Yan finally cooled his face: "What are you servants doing, there is no lord or official position in this house, but he doesn't even understand the etiquette, as a criminal, he is still allowed to stand like this." Why, you want to tell me that he is standing taller than me, right? ”

The stern reprimand made the officers nervous, and immediately someone stepped forward to hold down Liu Jiazi and kicked it to the popliteal fossa, and Liu Jiazi knelt down in pain.

At this time, Luo Yan said: "The criminal must have the consciousness of the criminal, do you think that this is your home, which can make you run amok?" ”

"As the head of the Chivalrous Society, gathering the sons of the nobles, beating innocent passers-by at every turn, and the bad deeds are too numerous to mention, can you plead guilty?"

Liu Jiazi snorted coldly, although he didn't speak, his expression was obviously unconvinced. However, Luo Yan naturally had a way to make him subdue.

"Bring the files of Dai Shaoqing's trial of this case the last time, and bring these bitter owners and witnesses one by one." Luo Yan sneered, turned his head and commanded the little official standing in the first place.

In a short time, the dossier has been brought.

Luo Yan held up the thick pile of paper and said to Liu Jiazi: "The last time Dai Shaoqing tried this case, you have admitted all the blame. I wonder what else you have to say? ”

"Of course I want to say that it was all because you beat me and others to serious injuries, and in order to close the case as soon as possible and go home to recuperate, you had to confess. Now, I want to retract my confession. When Liu Jiazi said that he retracted his confession, he smiled very proudly.

It was as if in this way he was able to escape responsibility.

Luo Yan smiled. The smile was gentle.

"Alas, it's terrible to be uneducated. You think that you can get rid of this matter just by retracting your confession. Luo Yan stood up, walked to the bottom of the hall, and said to the onlookers outside: "The Law of Zhenguan is clearly ordered, but there is testimony from people who have nothing to do with the bitter master, which can be used as evidence for conviction. I really don't know, I suffered a big loss some time ago, and you didn't even ask these things clearly. ”

Although it was said to the crowd of onlookers, Luo Yan said that Liu Jiazi's arrogance was a little less, and in the end, Liu Jiazi's originally stiff body suddenly softened.

He finally understood why Luo Yan had to say a sentence earlier to bring the bitter master and the witnesses together, just to make him completely speechless.

Within two moments, the errand brought the first batch of bitter masters, although there was still some fear in the eyes of Liu Jiazi, but when Luo Yan asked, the bitter master and the witness were not ambiguous at all, and immediately made Liu Jiazi's evil deeds public.

After bringing five batches like this, Liu Jiazi's psychology finally collapsed, and he almost cried and shouted: "Don't say it, don't say it." I confess my sins, can't I confess my sins? "When he already knew that he couldn't stand up, those sharp blades that identified the equivalent of words kept slashing his mind.

Luo Yan waved his hand, signaling that the errand didn't need to bring any more witnesses, and then nodded: "Since you confessed, it will be easy to do." The facts are already clear, then you will be sentenced not to inherit the title, and you will be in the army for five years, and you will not be allowed to get away with the crime unless you have an amnesty, and you will be fined a thousand dollars. ”

After Liu Jiazi listened, he immediately collapsed to the ground.

And the onlookers were even more stunned. The previous sons of the lords, even if they were notorious, were only sentenced to confiscation, and there was no such thing as being exempted from the crime at all.

You must know that an emperor may not be able to announce five amnesties in his lifetime. Li Shimin pardoned twice, once when he ascended the throne and changed the yuan, and the other time was when he experienced three years of hardship and a great harvest in the world in the fourth year of Zhenguan.

If you want to do it again, within five years, unless the crown prince Li Chengqian determines the crown princess, and then gives birth to Lin'er, there will be a successor to the royal family.

However, I don't know when this will come. It is said that the prince's wedding date is approaching, but Li Shimin has not mentioned this matter to the courtiers until now.

"Okay." I don't know who took the lead, after Liu Jiazi signed and painted, in front of the main hall of Dali Temple, there was a sudden applause. (To be continued.) )
