Chapter 15 The great benevolence is not benevolent, and the most benevolent has no relatives
Phoenix Dance
Early in the morning, the morning glow had just broken through the clouds, and the arrow towers of the gates of Xiangping City sounded a heavy horn, whimpering, sour and sad.
People poured out of the four open gates, rushed across the drawbridge, and scrambled to converge on the execution square outside the school.
A few days ago, we all knew that many corrupt officials and corrupt officials and their relatives who had committed crimes had been arrested, and the patriarchs had written unsuccessful reprimands, and were later tried and convicted.
All the people of Yan Kingdom, as well as the merchants, rangers, and scholars who came to Yan Land to do business, followed out to see such scenes.
The execution was carried out at the end of the hour, but there was still half an hour, and there were already a sea of people around the court.
When the people looked around, they saw a low-lying area with hundreds of wooden stakes planted on it, and three thousand ironclad knights surrounded it, isolating all the people who came to the periphery.
There are also many bulletin boards on the outer layer, on which are pasted the names of all the criminals, the names of the crimes, and the laws that have been violated, so that the people can see clearly, and they are all the great crimes of beheading.
Inside the ironclad knights, hundreds of selected executioners wrapped their heads in red cloth, holding plate axes with thick backs and wide blades, neatly arranged, and on a temporary stacked high platform in the center of the court, sat several majestic and cold executives, namely Le Yi, Chun Yuzhen, Ye Langsheng, and Xu Weigong.
In addition, some ministers were invited to come to observe, and in the face of such a scene, they were a little embarrassed, and the secret corner was lucky, which served as a deterrent to these newly promoted officials.
Ice and snow, a slaughter.
"It seems that the court is really moving this time."
"Yes, it's really unexpected, those arrogant and domineering relatives on weekdays, the ten tigers in the capital, the three young men, and those felons who are traitors and criminals, finally all surrendered to the law, and today they were sentenced to the first place."
"Skynet is magnificent, negligent but not leaky!"
The people on the periphery, hundreds of thousands of people, all of them were enthusiastic, they seemed to feel the iron and blood of the imperial court, and the power of justice, and everyone felt that the Yan Kingdom was thriving, and Lao Yan was waking up and rising!
For the first time, the relatives of the criminals outside the law showed a frightened look, hanging their heads and slumping on the grass and crying silently, because of the new law of Yan Kingdom, it does not involve the nine clans and the three clans, they are all one person who does things and one person is responsible, and they will never kill innocents in vain, everyone must be responsible for their own actions, otherwise once they violate, they will bear the consequences.
If it is the son of an official, then the father will be implicated to a certain extent, and obtain the result of demotion or isolation investigation, after all, there is guardianship, poor supervision, no education, and the father's fault, as a parent, the child breaks the law, and the responsibility of the parents is also there, at least they are not qualified to be a high-ranking official again, and they can't even manage their own children well, how can they handle state affairs well.
The inheritance of personality has the greatest relationship with the family, and there are many bad habits in the family and foundation of the criminal family, which will lead to the distortion of the conditions and thoughts of the child who delinquish the crime.
The cries of the families of these criminals, not only did not get the slightest sympathy from the audience, but they all had a trace of happiness, mourning their misfortune, hating their indisputable mentality, every prisoner on the list is basically the kind of heinous crime, and the killing is not enough to vent the hatred of the people.
Brutal peace, reckless disregard for human life, calamity to the country and the people, doing evil, embezzlement of huge sums of money, enclosure and killing of the people......
In the face of such a huge execution ground, people felt for the first time the majesty of the national law, the righteous wind of the imperial court, and the ruthlessness of the national law.
When the sun rose and was approaching, Le Yi suddenly ordered in a loud voice: "Escort the prisoners into the court——! ”
The flag bearer waved the command flag in his hand, and the three thousand knights of the forbidden army gave way to a portal aisle, and suddenly a long spear foot soldier was held in two columns, escorting the long line of human prisoners into the court.
The prisoners wore light blue coarse cloth clothes and trousers, and thick hemp rope tied their hands and feet, every ten people were a string, and there were more than 20 strings, including relatives, officials, noble young masters, giants, as well as scoundrels, family members, rangers, all kinds of identities, as long as they violated the law in the territory of Zaiyan, the severity was defined as the death penalty, they were all sent here, and they were uniformly executed to deter the people.
The prisoners slowly squirmed towards the center of the court, and the people on the four heights were silent, the first time they saw such a group of "ochre clothes", the first time they saw the red scarf executioners like a phalanx on the battlefield, everyone's heart couldn't help but tremble, the ochre prisoners were no longer arrogant and impetuous, all of them hung their heads and turned pale, and some were even so frightened that they were so frightened that they were crying for help, but to no avail.
When these criminals, full of despair and helplessness, were escorted to the court of justice, they suddenly felt the murderous aura around them, the north wind of the wilderness, like the roar of death, and they finally felt the majesty of this thing called "law", and felt the insignificance of their personal lives in front of the law of the power country.
Each stake had a name written on it, corresponding to the crime, and when the name was marked with a bright red cross, it meant that they would kill him, and they suddenly developed a deep fear, and some of them had weak legs and collapsed on the grass, wailing and regretting that they had not done the same.
At this time, Le Yi stood up and shouted: "The law is not merciful, the iron face is selfless, and those who touch it seriously will be punished!" ”
Suddenly, the surrounding crowd shouted: "The law is unforgiving, and the iron mask is selfless......"
A hundred responses, such as a mountain flood and tsunami, an instant collapse of the embankment, the sound shook the sky, rolled out, like a muffled thunder on the earth, this is hundreds of thousands of people, spirit, will, blood, will, support, respect, etc., fused into a force of justice!
Le Yi saw the understanding and momentum of the people of Yan Kingdom, nodded slightly, and his heart was also touched, as long as a country and the will of the people are condensed, like steel, and unite as one, then there is no difficulty that cannot be overcome, such a cohesive country will be prosperous and sweep the princes.
"Let's get started!" Le Yi sighed.
Ye Langsheng got up and ordered: "If you commit a crime, you will be found to be ——! ”
The subordinate enforcement personnel of the Criminal Investigation Department walked between the people and criminals, quickly verified their identities, and then rushed to report: "Tell Prime Minister Le, 280 criminals, all of them have been verified, and there is no mistake or omission."
Le Yi nodded, as the main person in charge of the law change, and the national law is also part of the new law, so he is here to preside over the overall situation, and at this moment he said to Ye Langsheng: "Execute it!" ”
Ye Langsheng arched his hand, and then said with a stern face: "Beat the drum to execute——"
Suddenly, a herald waved the order flag and shouted, "The executioner is in place——! ”
Two hundred and eighty executioners of red scarves lined up in a neat line, striding in great strides, and stood in front of each stake.
"Lift the axe—"
Two hundred and eighty axes were raised at the same time, and a snowy light flashed in the sunlight, and the cold air was cold, and the killing machine leaked out.
"One, two, three, behead ——!"
The thick-backed axe drew a shining arc, radiant, and at the same time, the blood splashed and scattered in all directions, two hundred and eighty human heads, almost at the same time, rolled down on the snow, bloody breath, white snow, bright red blood, particularly dazzling, strange power, such as a white lotus blooming red flowers, incomparably demonic.
The onlookers of the four fields shouted softly almost at the same time, clenching their fists, as if waking up in a nightmare, but their hearts were instantly liberated, how many bitter tears and grievances in the past, how many homicides, finally ended the grievances today, and the fear and respect for the national law reached a point of no return!
