Chapter 42: The Truth Revealed
Sure enough, Liu Xuan and Song Liang couldn't even open the toilet, let alone install it, so these two guys couldn't even open the toilet, and then fell to the ground, Liu Xuan said in a trembling voice: "My lord, the lower official is guilty!" I hope that the adults will fall lightly! This flush toilet was made by the lower official and asked the steward to buy the drawings of the craftsman Kong Sande, and the lower official should be damned! ”
Xu Xuan laughed and said, "I didn't expect this toilet to really speak!" You, a criminal official, confessed your guilt quickly, but saved the torture tools of this adult! Well, now that you have confessed your guilt, bring the facts to the truth, and there must be no concealment! ”
At this time, Liu Xuan also knew that it was too late to regret, because this time he might face the crime of bullying the king, and even his backstage would not be able to protect him!
Liu Xuan hurriedly glanced at Song Liang and asked him to answer. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
This Song Liang was already so frightened that his soul was not possessed, and this time he had to shed his skin even if he didn't die, of course he thought lightly.
Song Liang said hesitantly: "Big, my lord, it was the day when I heard that Li Kang and his son made a kind of flush toilet, so I instigated Lord Liu to use this flush toilet to suppress Lord Li Kang. All these are the sins of the villain, please be aware of them! ”
Xu Xuan slapped the shocked wood and said loudly: "Death is coming, you two still want to get away with it!" Even if they are instigated, their sins are equal! Come on, bring the craftsman back to the court for a second trial! ”
At this time, several officials responded to the call to repair the official kiln of the internal division and bring the hole three.
The case has been tried here, in fact, the truth has been revealed, but Kong San still has to be brought to the court for trial, after all, every case must have evidence and witnesses. It is also necessary to make the facts of the case clear, so that the case can be closed.
Xu Xuan went to the back hall to see the emperor, the result of this case was tried so quickly, which he did not expect, this kid thought to himself that the emperor had to praise him for his ability!
When he arrived at the back hall, Emperor Lizong was sitting there enjoying tea, and Xu Xuan hurriedly knelt down and said, "Long live the emperor!" Weichen finally lived up to the holy will and tried the toilet case, and when the witnesses and evidence were all in the court, the case could be closed! Look at the emperor's wisdom! ”
Emperor Lizong raised his hand and said, "Lord Xu, get up and talk back!" This case went well, and it's up to you to come up with a way to interrogate the toilet. This Liu Xuan is really bold, he dares to use such a method to attack his colleagues, and he commits the crime of bullying the king, he must be punished heavily to set an example! ”
Xu Xuan hurriedly said: "Thank you for your praise!" This is all the emperor's personal visit, and under the grace of God, Weichen is fortunate not to be dishonored! That Liu Xuan and his stewards committed the crime of bullying the king, the crime is unforgivable, and Weichen thinks that he should launch the noon gate and behead the public! ”
Emperor Lizong smiled and said, "Okay, just follow your opinion!" ”
Xu Xuan also retired at this time, because the emperor looked a little sleepy.
After a short time, the craftsman Kong San was brought to the hall, this guy was actually unintentional, and now he was brought to places like Dali Temple, and he was even more frightened, thinking that this time it was over, not only almost sorry for Lord Li, but also became a sinner.
Xu Xuan saw that Kong San's face was as frightened as earth, so he asked in a deep voice: "The people under the hall, but the cultivator is serving Kong San?" ”
Kong San hurriedly said: "Big, my lord, the grass people are Kong San!" Grass people, I'm sorry Lord Li! leaked important drawings and became Liu Xuan's accomplice, the grass people should be damned! But there are still eighty old mothers in the grass people's family, begging adults to spare their lives! ”
Xu Xuan saw that Kong San begged for mercy as soon as he came up, and couldn't help but laugh and said, "Kong San, Lord Ben hasn't convicted you yet, you don't have to be like this." You truthfully recruited how to give Liu Xuan the drawings of the flush toilet. ”
Kong San hurriedly told what happened that night, Li Xiang didn't expect it, it turned out to be such a leaked toilet drawing, this Kong San said it was really unintentional, but this person is in his thirties and has not yet asked for a wife, no wonder he can't resist the temptation of that kind of beauty.
Xu Xuan said loudly: "Prisoner Liu Xuan, submit the drawings of the flush toilet you got, and let this hole San identify whether it was painted by him!" ”
Song Liang hurriedly pulled out the drawing of the toilet bowl in his arms, and a servant came over, took the drawing from it, and put it in front of Kong San.
Xu Xuan said loudly: "Kong San, is this picture made by you?" ”
Of course, Kong San recognized the picture he had drawn, and at that time he thought that the girl left because he had taken her and was too ashamed to see him, but he never thought that it was like this, he was deceived! The drawing was also missing at the time, and he didn't care about it, but now he realized that he almost killed Master Li.
Kong San hurriedly nodded and said, "My lord, that's right!" This is painted by the grass people! ”
Xu Xuan saw that the case was finally clear, so he was shocked and said loudly: "Okay, the facts of this case are already very clear, it was Liu Xuan, the eunuch of the Imperial Palace, who sent someone to obtain the toilet drawings by improper means, and imitated them, and sent the toilet to the palace. According to the criminal law of the Great Song Dynasty, when the noon gate is launched, beheading! Steward Song Liang should be punished for the same crime! Because he didn't know it, but he was also at fault, he thought that he still had an old mother to support him at home, and sentenced him to three years of hard labor! ”
The next thing is to sign and draw the charge, after hearing the trial, Liu Xuan and Song Liang fainted with fright on the spot, and they were incontinent! This is a decapitation, who can not be afraid? Even the handprints were pressed by the officials who grabbed the hands of these two guys.
Originally, in the course of trial and enforcement of such a capital crime case, as long as the convict retracts his confession or claims injustice, the judicial organ must transfer the case to another department of that organ or to another judicial organ for retrial. This reflects a cautious attitude towards the death penalty and protects the rights of criminals, in order to reduce unjust, false and wrongful convictions. But because these two guys confessed their guilt and fainted again, plus the emperor personally agreed, there was no need to go through those complicated procedures.
The Great Song Dynasty has a system of reporting the death penalty, and death penalty cases can take effect after being reviewed by the Road Supervision Department and the Shuai Division. The execution of the death penalty only needs to be repeated in the Jingshi area, and in other areas, it can be carried out with the approval of the supervision department and the commander department. But now that the emperor personally approves it, Dali Temple does not need to report to the Criminal Division, and it can be directly executed.
Liu Xuan and Song Liang were immediately pushed out of the noon gate and beheaded, and the case was successfully closed. However, the matter is not over, Emperor Lizong is very satisfied with this kind of flush toilet, and he is even more curious about Li Xiang, who designed this kind of flush toilet, so Li Kang and his son were called to the inner hall after retreating!
When Li Kang and Li Xiang were introduced into the inner hall by the yacha, they saw a familiar face, yes, that person was the noble man they met on the street not long ago! However, at this time, this noble man was wearing a dragon robe, and there was no need to think that both father and son understood that they were really the emperor today!
