Chapter 780: Public Trial of Toast (I)
"Bring it on!" "Come out for me!"
"Harary?"
"I'm Harari!" A toast said.
And the man in the bailiff's suit said, "Check it out, check it out?" ”
"Verify your identity? You can't kill me! The Harari was startled.
According to generally speaking, after verifying the body, it is also the canonical punishment, which is generally used when it is executed. When the toast Harari heard this, he thought he was going to kill himself, and he immediately resisted. However, the bailiff's words made him a little relieved.
"Don't worry, we won't kill you without a trial!" The bailiff said.
This relieved Harari Toast, but he was immediately taken to his cottage, and he saw that there were crowds of people everywhere, and they didn't know what was going on. And this Harari didn't know what these Han people wanted to do, so he actually brought him back here?
"Are they going to reappoint me as Toast? If so, great! Tusi Harari also thought excitedly.
The toast Harari was taken to a high platform, then to an iron bar, and then to be handcuffed. And this made Harari not know what was going on, and he also felt that it was obvious that he should not be reappointed as Toast.
"Now, the trial of the criminal suspect Harari begins, and now we swear to His Majesty Wang Guorui, the Emperor of the Yanhuang Empire, that we will have a fair trial!" ……
The judges began to take an oath to Wang Guorui's photograph and then promised a fair trial. And that Harari didn't feel that there was anything wrong, and when he heard that he was going to judge himself, he was immediately very anxious.
"What are you doing? What are you doing, we have surrendered. Shouldn't we be rewarded? Shouldn't we be given wealth? Even if wealth shouldn't be given to us, it won't punish us at least, right? Harari said.
But the judge ignored it and continued: "Prosecutor, read the indictment!" ”
"The criminal Harari, during his tenure as a local Tusi in Guizhou, was brutal. Kill people at every turn. If anyone disobeyed the slightest, they all ordered to be put to death, from the time he inherited the position of Tusi to the time he was arrested, a total of one hundred and two people were ordered to be killed. and not only wantonly killed, but also raped the people's daughter! not only forcibly violently inflicted violence on the people's daughters, but even threatened to satisfy his lewdness. desired, so he attacked her family. There are also alleged ......"
A very long indictment, and the charges are simply too numerous to mention. Because of this one by one, there are many lives for those killed directly and indirectly. Even for a sacrifice, fifteen slaves were killed as a sacrificial ritual. And in order to make a religious ritual vessel, he actually killed people and decorated them with human skins, which is simply anti-human. Human. And these made the Han people present also feel extremely shocked, and the officials of the Han nationality and the various staff members of the army who came to accompany them also felt very angry when they looked at this Harari. This kind of random killer. It's just horrible. And this guy kills people more than many so-called tyrants.
And to hear such a long indictment. And these charges have also been investigated, which makes the ethnic minority people under the rule of this Tusi also surprised. Although they tell each other that this Harari is very cruel, they usually accept his rule, and they have been used to it for decades. But now all his records have been counted, which shocked the people of Tusi, because the situation was so terrible. They were all shocked.
"Harari, are you guilty?" The prosecutor asked.
The Harari immediately asked, "What is my sin?" I'm killing all slaves, what's the problem? ”
"Slaves? Who allowed us slavery here? In the legal code of our Yanhuang Empire, there is no provision for slavery at all, how do you own slaves? The judge asked.
Harari immediately said, "This is a reward from the Qing Imperial Court!" ”
"Wait. You accepted the canonization of the Qing court? However, the Qing court was an aggressor and did not belong to the legitimate government. Since you have accepted the canonization of the Qing court, you have to add one more treason! The judge said.
"Wait, wait, I didn't accept the canonization of the Qing court, but I accepted the canonization of the Ming court! Since the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, we have accepted the canonization of the Ming Dynasty and are responsible for ruling here. So I have dominion over this place, so I can do whatever I want? Harari said.
However, the prosecutor immediately replied: "In this case, does the Ming court allow you to kill people casually?" I remember that neither the so-called Ming Dynasty nor the laws of the Manchu occupation period could say that you could kill people here at will, right? Whether it is the law of the Ming court or the law of the puppet Manchu court, the people under their rule must be convicted by the government before they can be reported to the central court for the Ming Dynasty. Also, the so-called slavery in the Manchu Dynasty that you are talking about, this slavery system was only established in the Eight Banners. And no other person or organization can keep slaves, even any official in the Eight Banners does not have the right to kill slaves without authorization, and must be handed over to the judicial officials in the Eight Banners to kill. So whether you are in accordance with the Ming Dynasty or the laws of the pseudo-Qing Dynasty, it is also unfounded, what else do you say? ”
Obviously, these prosecutors have known for a long time how these guys will argue, so he has been preparing for a long time. Because whether it is the Ming Dynasty or the Qing Dynasty, there will be no private slaves. During the Ming Dynasty, when slavery was completely abolished, there were no slaves in the country at all, except for a small number of fallen people. Although there were so-called slaves in the Manchu Dynasty, it did not mean that the whole society was slaves. The slaves of the Manchu Dynasty were only the so-called slaves in the Eight Banners, but by the middle and late periods, the so-called Eight Banners slave system had collapsed. Many of the slaves of the Eight Banners have also changed and developed, and have become officials instead. And those masters of the year have declined. They only retained the nominal master-son relationship, and in fact it was no longer a slave dependency. What's more, the so-called slaves in the Eight Banners are not casually executed, and neither of them is qualified to be executed casually from the laws of the Ming and Qing dynasties.
Since the Tang Dynasty, absolute slaves have not existed, and even if the master wants to execute the slave, he must obtain the approval of the government before he can do it, otherwise he cannot do it himself. Later, slavery was no longer mainstream, it was caused by productive forces and cultural factors, and any slavery simply could not last long.
"Didn't the court let me rule here?" Harari asked.
The prosecutor immediately asked: "Then which court allows you to kill people at will, and you can execute others at will?" Can you take it? Do you have any evidence? ”
"This ......"
And this Harari, I don't know what to say, because since their ancestors, they have also had this privilege here, and this Central Plains dynasty of all dynasties has not taken care of this. And these have always been ruled according to the method of storing ancestors, that is, according to this method, whoever is unhappy will be killed, and this has always been their customary rule for hundreds of years. And even the Central Plains Dynasty didn't say anything, generally speaking, as long as they didn't kill the Han people, then they were okay. They killed their men and slaves as they wanted, and those toasts didn't have any ideas, nor did they think they were uncomfortable. It seems that this is what it should be, and it is a special power that they have had for generations.
However, these powers have never been written into any official documents of the Ming Dynasty and Qing Dynasty, but they have expanded their power by themselves, and then they have expanded their power by themselves by taking advantage of the idea that Emperor Shangao Yuan and the Central Plains Dynasty do not want to care more about this, so they will have this illusion that they have this power for generations, thinking that they have this power to kill people casually.
Not to mention that these Tusi think so, even the people and slaves under the Tusi also think so, thinking that Tusi has the right to execute them at will, and their fate is in the hands of Tusi. And now that someone has finally come to hold these toasts responsible, they are all surprised.
"Fellow citizens, no court has given them such power. Any court only gave them the power of self-government, but it never gave them the right to kill people at will. Neither has they been given the right to enslave you, and they have enslaved you, and no court has ever given them such power. They want you to work, and they have to pay you or pay you. But not only did they not pay you, but they even made you work without pay, and they executed you at will, and then your life was not guaranteed. This is a power that no court has given them, so it is illegal for them to kill you, and it is not in accordance with the laws of any dynasty. ”
"Folks, the so-called imperial court gave them the right to kill you here at will, that is just a misunderstanding. Neither the Ming Dynasty nor the so-called puppet Manchu Qing Dynasty gave them such power, and they did not have the right to kill you casually. Anyone who wants to be put to death must be judged, not killed and killed. And these toasts killing you casually are intentional homicide, and according to the law, they will be judged!
