Chapter 278: Convicted of Murder?
Jia Lin originally committed suicide by hanging herself because of Long Yuhui, and Long Yuhui, who already felt guilty about Jia Shaojie in his heart, after Jia Shaojie's surviving person Jia Lin committed suicide by hanging the beam, the guilt in his heart was even deeper.
Although at this time, it is a matter of one's own reputation, or one's future fate. But between this and conscience, Long Yuhui chose conscience without hesitation. You can be a human being, but you must not have no conscience. Long Yuhui would rather suffer from prison than expose Jia Lin's affairs. For a woman, losing her virginity is tantamount to killing her.
Although Jia Lin is dead, Long Yuhui is still reluctant to do so.
The trial conference lasted for a whole day, and the defense led by Tang San tried their best, struggling to speak, and just won a trace of sympathy from the judge, and Long Yuhui squeezed them into the abyss with a word. The spirit of not admitting defeat made Tang San unable to give up like this no matter what, and he had a relatively close relationship with Long Yuhui.
The two are both classmates and confidants. It's just that the two have chosen different paths, so so far, their achievements have also come and gone. Tang San didn't want to see Long Yuhui sentenced to prison like this, although he already knew Wang Lin's intentions, he still didn't want to. He wanted to do his best to help Long Yuhui and get him out of prison.
But Long Yuhui's refusal again and again not only made Tang San feel a trace of disappointment in him, but even the trace of sympathy that the judge had just accumulated instantly turned into nothing. After a full day of trial, things didn't seem to be moving forward. Long Yuhui did not refute the fact that he killed someone, and he never refuted the two charges put forward by the judge.
The day's pimping is finally over. At the same time, in order to appease the people in China as soon as possible, or to carry out the next plan, under Wang Lin's instructions, a trial conference that attracted the attention of the whole world was over in just one day.
Before the judge pronounces the verdict, it is the time for Wang Lin, the juror, to speak, and if this is in a civil court, any jury leader, after expressing his opinion, will have a certain influence on the judge's verdict. The jury represents the will of the people, and although the law is ruthless, it can sometimes be merciful. Wang Lin doesn't seem to object to this, or maybe Wang Lin watched too much of the kind of lawsuit films in Hong Kong in his previous life.
The conscious system is okay, so the jury system is adopted.
Wang Lin stood up slowly, Wang Lin in civilian clothes, due to the difference in status and status, so in the eyes of many people, even Wang Lin in civilian clothes is still the focus of the whole of China and even the world.
"Ladies and gentlemen, after a day of trial, after questions and answers from the defense, the parties and others, in my personal opinion, I believe that General Long Yuhui is guilty. Personally, I think that His Excellency the judge should sentence Long Yuhui to murder! β
'Boom! When Wang Lin said a speech, there was a roar from the audience. Even the cursing was voiced, until the gendarmerie soldiers who maintained order at the scene took a lot of effort and several minutes to suppress the atmosphere of the riot at the scene. They really couldn't understand why Wang Lin did this?
Could it be that Long Yuhui was found guilty, and what good did it do him? If Long Yuhui is Wang Lin's natural enemy, the two are currently in the same position, and they both want to gain the emperor's trust. In this case, Wang Lin did this, maybe they can understand, although it is despicable, but the battle between the high-level is not something they can control, all they can do is just wait for the result.
But Wang Lin is already the emperor himself, what is he doing this for? Why do people above 10,000 people want to suppress their generals so much? If Wang Lin is sincere, then there is only one possibility. Unload the mill and kill the donkey. Long Yuhui's side has just established a great feat, and he has become the savior of the entire country in an instant. Long Yuhui's status in the hearts of the people has briefly surpassed Wang Lin.
The entire land of the Chinese Empire, the Chinese nation, has set off a dragon wind. Wang Lin's suppression of Long Yuhui at this time was undoubtedly telling everyone that he, Wang Lin, was not a broad-minded person, and he did not allow anyone to surpass him. Once this threshold is exceeded, then the person must disappear.
"However, I also have an unshirkable responsibility on this issue! I am the emperor of the empire, the builder of this country, the builder of this army. I still care too little about the military. In normal times, I only cared about the training of the troops, and did my best to improve their lives and equipment, so that they could survive as much as possible during the battle and be able to come back alive to see their relatives. β
"But I neglected one of the most important things, and that was the thoughts of soldiers. I know very well what the bottom of the empire is like now, and although I have been in the office all year round, I can tell you with certainty that I know no less than any of you. It was because of my carelessness that this happened. β
"The soldiers are desperate outside, but they are being bullied endlessly at home, and on the one hand, they have to deal with difficult enemies, and they may lose their lives at any time, and on the other hand, they think about their families, and whether they are being bullied by some people at this moment. Distraction on the battlefield is the biggest blow to the soldiers. I thought I had done almost everything, but after this happened, I really realized that what I had done was just a drop in the bucket. There are many more things waiting for us to do in the next few days. β
"Officers and soldiers were killed, the surviving people in the family were bullied, and after getting the news of the death of their fiancΓ©, they were martyred for love. I know all these things. If I had introduced some of the relevant policies earlier, we wouldn't be in the situation we are in today. All of this is closely related to me. β
"Here, I want to say that if I were Long Yuhui, I would do the same, and even I would do it more ruthlessly than him. Because there are some things that you won't be able to experience when the time comes. Of course, what I said now looks like I am pleading for Long Yuhui, and it is somewhat contradictory to what I said earlier. But so what? The country's laws will inevitably become more and more perfect, if Long Yuhui is acquitted today, will more generals run out to kill people tomorrow? And then find a whole bunch of reasons to prevaricate? In front of the law, even if he is the head of state, he still cannot escape the punishment of the law! Wang Lin exhaled deeply.
When he said this, Wang Lin also pinched a cold sweat, for fear that the onlookers below would find it difficult to accept this reality for a while and have any conflict with the gendarmes. Now that they are here, the gendarmes will definitely desperately hold the bottom line, and once the situation is uncontrollable, the gendarmes are very likely to use force. After all, protecting the emperor's safety is the first priority, and Long Yuhui is the hero of this country, which is not bad, no one objected, not even Wang Lin did not. But compared with Wang Lin and Long Yuhui, the former is obviously more important to this country, and his safety cannot be missed.
Quiet, there was a terrible silence at the scene suddenly, and the situation that Wang Lin had expected, except for the initial turmoil, no longer had any expectations become a reality. It's a bit disappointing, but compared to reality, this might be the best, right? There are no riots, there are no casualties, and it is better to be alive than anything else.
The onlookers opened their mouths wide, unreasonable, just trying to join in the fun, and take a look at what the emperor looked like from a distance, and at this time they were still shocked and excited to hear the emperor's voice! Some people are more flexible and have better brains. I heard some meanings from Wang Lin's words, but what are these meanings?
From beginning to end, doesn't it still say that Long Yuhui is guilty and can't escape the punishment of the law? If this passage was said by another person, maybe they still had the courage to stand up and resist, but this person was Wang Lin. This emperor who brought them countless surprises. At this moment, if they were to stand up against Wang Lin, they would never do it. Because in comparison, Wang Lin seems to have brought more things to this country, to this nation, and to each of them.
The people don't understand any big truths, some things in the political arena, tell them that they don't understand either. They only know that whoever is good to them and who truly stands with them will support whoever they want, even if they fight for this surname.
After Wang Lin expressed his opinion, the five judges nervously discussed the final verdict in the makeshift lounge. What does Wang Lin's words mean, others don't understand, don't they understand these majors? Wang Lin's previous remarks were not only to tell the people that no one could escape the punishment of the law. The same also told these judges that Long Yuhui was guilty, but Wang Lin was also at fault, so he should be sentenced, just don't sentence too severely.
It's just that Wang Lin's speech made these five judges sad, how should this be judged? Too light a sentence? Not to mention that the emperor is not satisfied, even some people who want to be brought to the hands of the law will not be satisfied, and they will definitely deliberately make trouble after that. But what if the sentence is too severe? Will this cost the Empire a senior general? It's difficult, it's hard to be an emperor, it's even harder to be an obedient judge.
After two and a half hours of discussion, the five judges finally reached an agreement. When the five judges walked out of the lounge, the crowd of onlookers outside seemed to be still interested, they knew what Long Yuhui's fate would be, but they just hoped that the sentence would not be too severe.
"After a one-day trial, as well as the comprehensive opinions of the defense, the parties, the jury, and the jury, on behalf of the jury, I announce the final verdict!" Zhao Li was secretly nervous in his heart, he didn't know if this answer sheet could satisfy the emperor and the people. Although as a military judge of the gendarmerie unit, he had no thought of offending anyone, because the duty of the gendarmerie is to offend people.
The onlookers below, the sound of heartbeats all sounded, they were looking forward to the verdict of the judge.
According to various evidence, as well as Long Yuhui's own admission, this court pronounced a verdict that Long Yuhui was convicted of murder! The deceased, Ma Tianming, was found guilty of accepting bribes, accepting bribes, buying and selling official positions, dereliction of duty, and oppressing the people. However, in view of the excesses of the parties' behavior, this court sentenced them to three months of proselytizing in accordance with the law. β
"The deceased Ma Qirui, the son of the deceased Ma Tianming, used family convenience to oppress the local people because of the forcible occupation of the people's daughter, and the person concerned did excesses when his life was not threatened, but in view of the fact that Ma Qirui was the son of Ma Tianming, the investigation by the local political axe organs and civil volunteers showed that this person had left many bad records! Therefore, this court decided that Long Yuhui was convicted of murdering Ma Qirui and sentenced Long Yuhui to ten years in prison, with two sentences in total, and according to the provisions of the Chinese Emperor's [***] civil regulations, Long Yuhui was sentenced to eleven years and three months in prison! As soon as he was announced, he was immediately escorted to a military prison to serve his sentence. β
"At the same time, this court pronounces a verdict to revoke Long Yuhui's post as commander-in-chief of the Ninth Group Army, revoke Long Yuhui's post as commander of the 56th Division of the National Defense Army, and revoke Long Yuhui's rank of lieutenant general in the National Defense Army!" Zhao Li read bitterly.
The military law is originally an extremely strict law, and the minimum penalty for some serious crimes is ten years, and if the two punishments are combined, the two sentences will be added together, plus one year in prison. This was mainly specially formulated by Wang Lin in order to control the crimes of military personnel. Unexpectedly, it was used on Long Yuhui at this time.
As for the revocation of Long Yuhui's military rank and position, this is reasonable, and anyone who is convicted by a military court will be revoked from his position and his military rank, regardless of his position. It's something you don't have to think about at all.
Long Yuhui's case was finally over, and some of the onlookers left the scene with the sound of crying, and returned home heartbroken and waited bitterly, waiting for Long Yuhui's release from prison. In the army, there are many soldiers who get drunk, and the officers seem to know the mood of the soldiers, except for some soldiers who stick to their posts. The soldiers did not stop the drinking, but the amount of alcohol they drank was controlled. In short, it's okay to drink, but it's okay to get drunk.
On the night Long Yuhui was sent to the Hainan Military Prison, Wang Lin personally ran to the so-called military prison. The military prisons in Hainan basically do not hold prisoners, and only a few officers who have entered the small black house will be locked up in the so-called Hainan military prison when they make mistakes.
Coming to the so-called prison, Long Yuhui suddenly looked relaxed, as if he had returned to the time when he had just come here, he didn't have to think about anything, he didn't have to do anything, he just had to work hard to do his own thing. Hainan Military Prison, to put it bluntly, is a small black house, Long Yuhui has been here for three years, not only did he not feel a trace of annoyance, but when he left, he was a little reluctant to hug the instructor and cry deeply.
This night, Wang Lin and Long Yuhui talked late at night, until one or two o'clock in the morning, which ended the conversation. After returning home in a hurry, I saw that my wife was sitting on the sofa waiting for me, and my son was lying on the big bed in the house sleeping soundly, and I felt a warm feeling in my heart.
"There are some things I shouldn't have asked, but I see a lot of reaction from the outside. So I can't help but want to ask you! Seeing Wang Lin coming back, Li Ruoyan gently put down the needlework in his hand, walked to Wang Lin's side, took the clothes he took off, and whispered.
"You are the queen, it should be your duty to be the mother of the world, in addition to caring for your son, you should also care about other people. Don't worry, he'll be fine, I'll send him to the place where he just came, where the boy is comfortable, and it won't be long before he comes out. Wang Lin seemed to know what his wife was going to ask him, and answered directly as if jokingly.
"I just got sentenced to eleven years today, and it won't be long before I come out? Do you want to make an exception? β
"Emperor, there will always be some privileges. My right to pardon has not been used once, but this time I let this kid try it first. Wang Lin gently stroked his wife, and continued with some emotion: "We haven't ...... for a long time? β
"No, I have!"
"What? Pregnant? Why didn't you tell me sooner? β
As a result, the great emperor of the Chinese Empire lived without a woman again. But it's ridiculous to think about it, the emperor of a dignified country, everyone has 3,000 beauties in the harem, and Wang Lin has never expected to have 3,000 harems, just have three. But so far, Wang Lin has no time to care about his personal problems except for being busy with work. If it weren't for Li Ruoyan at home, I'm afraid that this family at this time would have long since become a family, right?
Second, as soon as Wang Lin came to the office, he met the prime minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, who was waiting early, a figure above 10,000 people in China. as well as Minister of National Defense Tang San and Military Police Commander Hao An'an. After about half an hour of talking, the Ministry of the Interior suddenly announced that from now on, political officials at all levels, as well as political officials, regular workers, temporary workers, including cleaners and janitors, must report the amount of their assets to the Ministry of Internal Affairs within one month.
The Ministry of the Interior will investigate the reported situation in the coming period, and if it is found that the reported information is false, it will receive a summons from the court.
At the same time, within this hour, the Ministry of Defense also announced to the outside world that the gendarmerie unit will be officially divided into two, namely the military police internal affairs unit and the gendarmerie unit. At the same time, a decision was taken to expand the gendarmerie by 100,000 men. The internal affairs units of the gendarmerie will be stationed in various regions of the country and will be responsible for dealing with some problems among the families of military personnel and resolving the worries of military personnel, while the military police will continue to perform their previous duties and will still be responsible for military affairs.
As soon as the two pieces of news came out, the whole world trembled again, no one thought that Wang Lin's speed would be so fast, and they couldn't keep up with the pace when they were already fast.
