Chapter 34 Law Enforcement
As soon as Zhang Yuhan saw Yu Junting, he said with an ugly face: "In Jianzhou, the Tusi family violates the law and can be fined as a substitute for the crime, which is the privilege given to the Tusi by the Heavenly Family." Yu Jianzhou is also a toast, do you want to take the lead in breaking the rules and self-destructive? ”
Yu Junting glared at Zhang Yuhan, she wanted to wait for Ye Xiaotian to touch a hard nail, and obediently begged her to come forward to clean up the mess for him, who knew that these people didn't go to find Ye Xiaotian's trouble, but instead decided that this matter was a troublemaker behind her back, and came to make it difficult for her, where did this start?
Father Xiang stepped forward, shook his head at Junting, and pleaded: "In Jianzhou, you and I have been neighbors for generations, and our ancestors have been married, so you also have the blood of my Xiang family." And the people of my Xiang family also have the blood of their families on their bodies. The dog is stubborn and has made a big mistake, Xiang is willing to be fined according to the law to replace the crime, why does Yu Jianzhou have to make everyone unable to come to the stage? ”
Yu Junting said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about, do you think that this official instructed Ye Xiaotian to do this?" The surname Ye is famous for not eating hard and soft, oil and salt not entering, don't believe you go to Huxian County to inquire, who doesn't know that this surnamed Ye is like a mad dog, as long as he bites it, don't want him to let go, about something. ”
Zhang Yuhan and others only thought that this was her excuse, where could they believe it, Yuchen came forward and said: "In Jianzhou, the prefect is sick, and the government affairs of Huxian County are all in charge of Jianzhou." Now Ye Xiaotian insists on executing my son, if it really goes to the court, you and I will not look good, and I will ask Lord Jianzhou to mediate. ”
Father Zhang, Father Wu and others all looked at Junting coldly and quietly watched her say. Yu Junting originally expected Ye Xiaotian to be harassed by these people and had to take refuge in her, but now he wanted to come forward to talk to Ye Xiaotian for these people, which was really a little crying and laughing.
Yu Junting said depressedly: "I, Yu Junting, dare to act, if this matter is really instructed by Yu, do you dare not admit it?" Could it be that Yu is still afraid of you? That's it, I'll come forward for you to say one or two. But your sons really should be disciplined, don't think that you are a powerful family and can do whatever you want, if you really want to provoke a civil uprising, everyone will be miserable! ”
After Yu Junting finished speaking, he said to the master Wen Ao on the side: "You go, invite me the stone in the dung pit!" ”
On the side of the torture hall, Li Qiuchi thought hard for a long time, and suddenly whispered to Ye Xiaotian: "I understand!" It turned out that Dong Weng wanted to use this matter to send Yu Jianzhou a favor, yes, yes, Yu Jianzhou is now the first person in Tongren. If she inherits Dong Weng's favor, it will definitely be of great help to Dong Weng's future, or Dong Weng is far-reaching. ”
Ye Xiaotian glanced at him and said lightly: "Mr. Li, when he saw the beauty of the person, he entered the hall and openly violently committed it, and he was completely unafraid of the law as if nothing had happened afterwards. Such acts are even more excessive than robbers, and if such scum is not punished, will the people have a way to survive in the future? ”
Li Qiuchi heard that there was something wrong with him. couldn't help but say in surprise: "What, is it true that Dong Weng really plans to severely punish Zhang Daoyun and the others?" ”
Ye Xiaotian kept his face calm and didn't speak, and Li Qiuchi exclaimed: "Absolutely not!" Dong Weng, the toast family. But those who enjoy the privilege of toast kill, do not need to ask for a decree! Toast's father mourned. Don't worry! The people of the fields under the jurisdiction of Tusi are all their masters, like slaves and servants; Buying, selling, transferring, and gifting are like cattle and sheep.
If the Tusi family has a marriage, the people will not dare to marry within three years, even if it is the emperor, there is no reason for the people to marry after their own family, but the Tusi family can set such rules, what is the toast, this is the toast.
My lord, you have to think clearly, this is Guizhou, not the Central Plains, the Tusi people can use gold and silver to offset their crimes according to the law, which is also recognized by the imperial court, even if Dong Weng sentences them to death, the court will not approve it, why should Dong Weng be this vain wicked? ”
Ye Xiaotian said word by word: "The court is not allowed, that is the matter of the court." I can't buy the powerful with my conscience and ignore the suffering of the people just because the court doesn't allow it. ”
Li Qiuchi persuaded: "Dong Weng is not an ancient person, why is he so inflexible." Dong Weng was able to take them to the court for interrogation, which made these powerful people lose face greatly, and it has already demonstrated the prestige of our torture hall and Dong Weng's strong style, so it is enough, it is better to see it! ”
Ye Xiaotian shook his head coldly and said, "If I am not a law enforcer, when I hear about this, I will at most scold a few words of injustice in heaven, but I will not force myself to stand up and be a person who sees injustice on the road." But since I'm a law enforcer, I can't be a foolish official. You have also seen the misery of the Luo family, how can this official have a conscience for the sake of the future. ”
Li Qiuchi was anxious, he only said that Ye Xiaotian wanted to use this matter to make a reputation in the torture hall, but then he thought deeply, thinking that Ye Xiaotian was using this matter to sell a favor to Yu Jianzhou, so as to hug Yu Jianzhou's thighs and lean his back against the big tree to enjoy the shade, who expected that he really wanted to deal with Zhang Daoyun and others strictly.
At this time, Li Qiuchi remembered that he was invited to Huxian County by Meng Qingwei with a lot of money, and Ye Xiaotian was just an impostor at that time, so he dared to make an enemy of Meng Qingwei, a county leader, and an arrogant local bully like Qi Mu.
This Ye Xiaotian is a slippery official with exquisite ingenuity on all sides, and he is clearly a donkey. Li Qiuchi thought of the possible consequences that Ye Xiaotian's insistence on doing this would incur, and he couldn't help but be worried, and he couldn't help but talk bitterly, but Ye Xiaotian was willing to listen.
At this time, Master Wen rushed to the lobby and said to Ye Xiaotian: "Lord Tuiguan, I have something important to discuss with you in Jianzhou!" At this time, Ye Xiaotian had just taken the five prisoners down, and was about to arrange for the Luo family and his daughter and a group of villagers to return to the village.
Yu Junting asked Zhang Yuhan and others to take Zhang Yuhan and others to the small living room for the time being, and waited in the hall with Dai Tongzhi. When Ye Xiaotian arrived, Yu Junting invited him to sit down, looked him up and down a few times, sighed softly, and said, "I am really impressed that there is a good official like you in my Tongren Mansion." ”
Ye Xiaotian said: "Lord Jianzhou summoned the lower officials, but he still has the heart to recruit? ”
Yu Junting shook his head and said, "Everyone has their own ambitions, I don't force them." What's more, I really don't dare to use someone like you. ”
Ye Xiaotian smiled and said, "So, it must be that Yu Jianzhou was entrusted by Zhang Tushe, Yuzhou and others to be a lobbyist for them?" ”
Yu Junting raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "Lobbyist? Ye Tuiguan dared to be so disrespectful to this official, who do you think you are? ”
Ye Xiaotian immediately got up and said, "It turns out that Lord Jianzhou summoned me not for today's case. The lower official misunderstood the Lord Jianzhou, forgive the sin, forgive the sin. ”
Yu Junting's face turned red, and he was so choked that he couldn't speak.
Dai Tongzhi, who was sitting with him on the side, hurriedly turned around and said: "Lord Ye, I can't hide it, Lord Jianzhou summoned me for today's case, but not for Zhang Daoyun and others to be lobbyists, but out of love for you." Lord Ye, Zhang Daoyun and others have indeed committed a big crime, people and gods are angry, Lord Ye wants to punish their crimes according to the law, and it is right! However, the law also stipulates that the Tusi family has the right to kill and kill the people under their rule, and even if they kill people for no reason, they can also be ransomed for the crime. The argument that 'the prince is guilty of the same crime as the people' does not work here. ”
Ye Xiaotian said loudly: "Dai Tongzhi doesn't need to say much, your kindness, Ye has already understood." Ye also knew that even if the case was reported to the court, it was likely that it would only end up with a severe reprimand and a fine. But that's not something Ye can control, now this case is still in Ye's hands, Ye doesn't do bad things, don't do bad people! ”
Yu Junting said coldly: "You know what the result is, but you still don't know how to be flexible, in addition to offending many powerful people, you can't get a foothold in Tongren from now on, what is the benefit?" It's stupid! ”
Ye Xiaotian glanced at her and said, "Xiaguan still remembers that yesterday Lord Jianzhou praised Ye for being shameless and cunning, why did he become stupid today?" ”
Yu Junting rolled his eyes and said coldly: "That's Yu Mou's eyes." ”
Dai Chonghua smiled bitterly: "Ye Tuiguan, you have justice in your heart, seeing the atrocities of Zhang Daoyun and others, hating and hating, it is also human nature. It's just that even if you are happy for a while, what can you do? Is it just for the three or two months that this official document will go back and forth to make them suffer some jail?
If you stop and save the face of the adults, I believe that they will be willing to ask them to give more gold and silver as ransom. Think about it, that woman has been violently assaulted, can you still turn back time and save her from suffering?
Now, her reputation has been bad, I am afraid it will be difficult to marry a good family, she has an old father and mother, only this one daughter, there is no other support, such a thing happened, how should I live in the future? If there is a ransom paid by the five families, her family will have no worries about food and clothing from now on.
Think about it, is it better for them to do this, or is it better to insist on asking for sins but to no avail? What's more, after this incident, it will be difficult for Lord Ye to gain a foothold here, and when the time comes, how many people who you would have been able to uphold justice for them will lose a blue sky? Lord Ye, if you do this, will it really do the victim a little good, or ...... Just to satisfy your desire to make a name for yourself? ”
Yu Junting's strong suppression, Ye Xiaotian was able to remain unmoved. Dai Chonghua's persuasion from the victim's position touched Ye Xiaotian's heart. Yes, in any case, this case has happened, some things are irreparable, and if it is reported to the imperial court, it will only make the five magnates lose face, will the emperor collude? In the eyes of the Son of Heaven, is it important for the loyalty of the toasts, or is it important to redress the grievances of a small family?
With the legal basis of "ransom substitution" in hand, it is conceivable how the emperor will choose, and what is the point of his insistence? Maybe it's really as Dai Tongzhi said, it would be better to let the Luo family get more compensation. You must know that with the power of Zhang, Xiang and a few other families, if they really put the five evil young people in prison, they will not be able to suffer......
Ye Xiaotian shook unconsciously.
