In a cave on the grassland, Ye Luming looked at Xiao Zhen, who looked a little thin in the swaying firelight, and felt for the first time that maybe he was right.

Half a month had passed since that night attack, and the Jurchen armor soldiers were frantically biting them. Xiao Zhen, who was hit by an arrow in the lung, has not been well treated, and I don't know if he can ......

The most tense moment of that night attack was that Ah Guta and Xiao Zhen shot at each other, and Ah Guta's archery skills were only a little worse than Xiao Zhen.

Both of them instinctively dodged, and Xiao Zhen's arrow penetrated Ah Guta's iron scale armor and leather armor, and then penetrated the chain mail, and finally only half a centimeter away from Ah Guta's heart.

The arrows pierced through Xiao Zhen's two layers of iron armor and plunged into his lungs.

So the red-eyed two sides began to slash each other, and Yeluming seized the opportunity to launch a counterattack and successfully received Xiao Zhenbu to break through, but suffered heavy losses. When Xiao Zhen saw Ye Luming, he only said "control Youzhou and migrate the people", and fell into a coma.

Ah Guta had already woken up, looking at the Han officials and generals kneeling on the ground, and was upset. The Republic of Korea was in tears, his head had been broken, and many Han officials also knelt down.

"You dog minion, you actually plead for the Khitan dog! Xiao Zhen's guy shot and injured the Great Khan, and the Khitan dog was going to pay it back with his life..."Wan Yandi also ignored Ah Qimai's obstruction, and yelled at the Republic of Korea, and actually called Ah Gu a Great Khan, not the emperor.

"Enough! You and my brother started from the end of the slightest, and I have always taken care of you, even if you are stupid, I will never punish you severely. And you actually insulted my prime minister of Dajin today, do you not take the Jurchen to heart, or do you think that you are more suitable to be the emperor than me?! Ah Guda closed his eyes, and his face was very calm. Anyone who knows Aguta knows that only when he has a murderous intent, Aguta will close his eyes.

The drop of the needle could be heard, and after a few breaths, the military generals present knelt on the ground and shouted: "Your Majesty is angry."

Wan Yan also understood that he had provoked Ah Guta, and knelt down in a panic to plead guilty, for fear of being cut with a knife.

Yan Ye's brother Aqimai and son Wanyan Zonghan lamented in their hearts, and reminded them many times that they didn't use it. Maybe Aguta was Hanye's elder brother before, but now Aguta is first and foremost the emperor of the Dajin Kingdom!

In addition, Han also insulted the Republic of Korea in public, which is really unwise. Sooner or later, Dajin will have to reuse Han officials, after all, the difficult work of ruling the locality, educating the people, and collecting taxes will only make a mess for the Jurchens who have just come out of the deep mountains and old forests.

Also, even if the Republic of Korea is a minion, it is only a minion of the emperor alone. Wan Yandi also scolded Han Republic of Korea for being a dog in front of Ah Guda, this kind of behavior......

……

Mingyue Village was attacked half a month ago, at noon. Li Xiang sat in the courtyard of Gongzhong, together with many villagers, and took advantage of the free time at lunch to watch a unique "trial".

Gongzhong is equivalent to the autonomous government of Mingyue Village, and the villagers have disputes, and they can't do it privately, so they come here to settle it.

In accordance with Li Xiang's opinion, Li Mengkong reformed the public middle school. Among them, the important content of institutionalization is the rules, after all, it is still a small village, and it is a bit laughable to call the law directly.

Today's case is Liu Laogen'er suing Lao Wang, saying that Lao Wang seduced his wife. Liu Laogener suspected that he was cuckolded, and wanted to ask the public middle school to administer justice.

Although the stockade is small, the shelves are large, and there are all kinds of plaintiffs, defendants, defenders, lawyers and notaries. Of course, they are basically cameos, and most people haven't even figured out what their role is.

In Mingyuezhai, the lawyer is in charge of the plaintiff's side, and the defender is in charge of the defendant's side. The notary invited a person who was convinced by the villagers, and this role was later assumed by the local suggestion court.

Today, Li Xiang is the notary, supervising the handling of the incident in the public middle school, and he also has to sign and draw the charge.

Li Mengkong first pointed to the names of the participants, verified their identities, and pressed their handprints.

"Ahem, that, Liu Laogen, right. You said that the old man next door stole your daughter-in-law, but there are any physical evidence, or other evidence? Li Mengkong was really tired of this kind of bullshit, but Li Xiang asked for a public trial at the cost of a sumptuous banquet.

What's more, Li Xiang also allowed the villagers to watch. Therefore, in order to take care of ordinary villagers, the trial time was moved to noon, and the villagers were the most idle during this period.

I heard that someone accused his wife of stealing a man, and many villagers, especially men, ran out of their homes with rice bowls, wanting to see and understand......

In the laughter of the villagers, Liu Laogen jumped to his feet, "What other evidence, Lao Tzu came back from the ground several times, and saw my daughter-in-law coming out of the old king's house, and I knew what I did when I looked at the commotion!" ”

Thinking of that scene, Li Xiang couldn't help but bow his head and twitch. Li Mengkong hid his face with his sleeves and hid under the table to play his belly, and some villagers directly squirted out the rice.

"Sassy? What a commotion, Brother Liu said carefully. ”

"Yes, you can't just see those who come out of the room, you have to catch the traitors and hold them down."

"It makes sense, but Lao Liu's daughter-in-law's ass is so big, and Lao Wang is so strong, it's normal to steal a fish."

The villagers who rushed to hear the news almost crowded out of the door, and some people kept ridiculing Liu Laogen'er, giving full play to the gossip nature of the people of the Celestial Empire.

Seeing that Liu Lao Gen'er and the tall Lao Wang were about to fight, several veterans stepped forward to pull them away, and Zhao Bo drew a line according to Li Xiang's prompt, letting the two stand on one side.

Li Mengkong flipped through the regulations of Mingyuezhai and found that there was no adultery, which was very embarrassing. "What's that, I'm sorry Ha Liu Laogen, there is no adultery in the regulations in our village, and I will make up for it later."

Some of the villagers' chopsticks stopped in the air, what? Our village is not accused of adultery? Isn't that ......

Comrade Li Mengkong didn't care whether the villagers understood it or not, he just wanted to end the matter as soon as possible, and said to Liu Laogen'er with the complaint: "Come and press a handprint, and wait for the public middle school to make up for adultery, and if you want to sue you, come back again, don't worry." Don't bother, we have a case record ......"

The scene was quiet for a long time, and the sound of the wind blowing the corner of the wall could be clearly heard, and then there was a "coaxing", and the laughter shook the entire Mingyue Village.

Liu Chengdong's father and daughter put down their jobs and came over to see what was going on here, more villagers, including high-level people, gathered together, and soon the high walls of the house were full of people watching the excitement.

Many villagers who rarely had a good time laughed and bent over, a few people rolled on the ground, and one had just eaten and actually vomited. Li Xiang bit his fingers, a little stomachache, and secretly gave Li Mengkong a thumbs up. I didn't see that you still have the potential to be a joker!

Lao Wang only felt so embarrassed, Liu Laogen was about to cry, looking at Li Mengkong, he was a little suspicious of life. "Qingtian, it can't be like this, why doesn't this adultery matter? You are a public citizen, wouldn't it be good to beat Lao Wang directly, who dares to disobey, what rules do you need......"

Li Mengkong was also embarrassed, so he didn't interrupt his broken thoughts, but just made an expression of helplessness.

Just kidding, first have rules, then follow the rules, and change the rules if they are not good. It's a lot of trouble, and it won't be a mess, and you don't have to care about favors and the like.

Otherwise, I will make an exception for you today, and open the back door for others tomorrow, and Lao Tzu will not die of exhaustion?!

At this moment, a Hedong lion's roar came, "You Liu Laowen, you actually say that I am adulterous?!" You saw me being pounced on with your own eyes, and you came to complain, it's not a shame. ”

The courtyard gate was packed, but it couldn't stand the strength of Liu Laogen's mother-in-law, and was forced to open a passage, and Zhao Bo and several other veterans hurriedly surrounded Li Xiang.

"The old lady works in the workshop, working hard to earn money for the family, you only dare to sue for the things that are shaved in the field, I will let you sue, let you sue..."

The atmosphere was completely out of control, Li Xiang fell into the chair, covering his face and beating his chest, and laughed back and forth......

Li Mengkong didn't hold steady, and fell to the ground, convulsive......

On the courtyard wall, several young villagers fell, and rolled on the spot without knowing the pain......

Even the defendant Lao Wang was very happy, and his voice was like a bell.

The few masters who had just arrived were also very happy in a distant place, and the simple Liu Susu wanted to laugh out loud, but was stopped by Liu Zhai.

Liu Susu had no choice but to bite her little hand, her shoulders trembled, her face turned red, and she couldn't open her mouth to laugh. But Su Su still listens to her father, she wants to be a lady, but she is so tired of pretending to be a lady!

Seeing that the villagers had almost eased up, Li Xiang walked to the middle and motioned for Lao Wang to press his handprint and leave. Then he cleared his throat, and the villagers who were a little confused in their excitement concentrated and wanted to hear what the little master said.

Li Xiang first endorsed Li Mengkong, "Liu Laogen has a saying that hits the key, you are a public citizen, just beat Lao Wang directly, what rules do you want." But if a public person can beat Lao Wang casually, he can beat Liu Laogen casually, do you dare to ask for such a public person? "The villagers thought about it, they still can't beat people casually, they have to talk about the rules!

"So we have to have rules in Mingyue Village first, and then we can deal with it. If there are no rules, we will set the rules, and if we are not satisfied, we will revise them, so as to ensure everyone's interests. Think about it, is it better for the people in the public to only act according to the rules set by everyone, or is it better for the people in the public to make a decision. ”

Seeing that the villagers didn't know what to do, Li Xiang had no choice but to make it clearer. "Today's matter, if it is according to the law of the Great Zhou, the result is likely to be that Liu Laogen's daughter-in-law was beheaded, and Lao Wang next door was exiled. In some places, there are also pig cages, and it is also possible that the so-called parents took Lao Wang's money and then sentenced Liu Laogen to make false accusations. "As soon as you say this, the villagers will understand, there are too many examples before going up the mountain.

"That's all because you don't have to set the rules. No evidence, no procedures, no checks and balances. Are you satisfied with the result? ”

Liu Laogen just wanted to vent his anger, and he didn't want to kill his daughter-in-law; Everyone also thinks that even if these two commit adultery, they will not be guilty of death; If Liu Laogen's daughter-in-law is killed, his family will be ruined; There is also Lao Wang, he still has a son, what should I do..."Hearing this, the villagers finally understood that today's things are far more than just jokes, and some clever villagers began to think about the actions of the village.

"And who can guarantee that they will not make trouble, when they are Liu Laogener or Lao Wang, everyone thinks that it is better and fairer for the public middle school personnel standing on the stage to behave in a better way..."

Li Xiang struck while the iron was hot, "So what to do if there is a dispute, it is by no means the public people who have the final say, and the public middle school people have no obligation or qualification to decide what to do, but should strictly follow the rules!" ”

"Whoever sets the rules, everyone sets them together, and it is inevitable to add and modify. As for what will happen if there are many people and things in the future, I can't see that far, and we need to go on together. After Li Xiang finished speaking, the villagers of Mingyue Village fell into deep thought.

After the disbandment, when they returned home, many villagers thought about today's trial repeatedly, and some began to ponder some flavors. There are several of the most sensitive villagers, and they feel that there are some more things in Mingyue Village, which makes people feel very at ease.

A few days later, the public middle school posted a list and announced that the trial time would be changed to noon, so more and more villagers went to the public middle school to listen to the trial. With the provocative questioning of the villagers, the trial procedure has become more and more perfect, and many interesting things inevitably happened during the period.

Li Xiang's proposal began to hold regular meetings in which all heads of households could participate, and the regulations of Mingyuezhai were constantly improved. In line with this, Mengxue soon added a legal system.

The history books contain: "The new civilization of China began with the case of adultery." ”
