Chapter 514: Death by Yourself
The county commander's expression changed suddenly. At this time, he couldn't care about his curiosity, and hurriedly scolded the old lady: "Presumptuous! You dare to be so disrespectful to the county lord, it's arrogant! ”
The old lady dared to hold the shelf when she faced the brocade book, probably this is the so-called fearlessness of the ignorant! But in the face of the county order, she is not so arrogant. As soon as the county order drank this, she immediately stopped her mouth, and by the way, she took back the hand pointing at the brocade book.
It's a pity that Jinshu didn't plan to reason with their family today, so even if the other party's attitude has changed, she plans to take advantage of this to make trouble.
"Lord County Commander, according to the laws of the Xia Kingdom, how should those who are disrespectful to the county lord be punished?" Jin Shu raised his eyes unhurriedly and looked at the prefectural order on the seat. Although she was only asking about a real problem, the county order still heard a bit of a threat in it.
"This ...... According to the law, the light person shall be punished with 20 rods, and the heavier ones shall be punished with 50 rods, and shall be punished with ...... Three years of forced labor. The county magistrate answered Jinshu's question seriously, and glanced at the kneeling old lady Zhao.
Seeing the other party's old bones, the county commander couldn't help but let out a sympathetic sigh in his heart. If Jinshu really wants to investigate to the end today, the old lady may not be able to escape this board. At this time, if Jinshu opens his mouth, this matter will naturally be revealed in this way. It's a pity that the county magistrate looked at her face and knew that the county lord had no such plans at all.
There are still so many people watching outside. Besides, what the county magistrate said just now was indeed true, so he naturally couldn't continue to delay at this moment. However, for the sake of the old lady's age, the county order still reduced the intensity of punishment as appropriate.
"Come on, the Zhao family is disrespectful to the county lord, and dragged out the cane for twenty years!" As soon as the county order Chrysostom was opened, the officials on both sides immediately stepped forward, and one of them was dragging the old lady of the Zhao family by the arms and planning to drag the person out.
Seeing that she was really going to be hit by the board, the old lady immediately panicked in her heart, "My lord spares her life!" The lord ......, "Look at the board in the hand of the officer, if she really suffers from these twenty boards, I am afraid she will really have to confess here today." The old lady also knew how to judge the situation, and at this time she knew that it was useless to shout the county order, so she quickly turned her mouth and shouted Jinshu, "County lord!" The county lord spares his life......"
Jin Shu's face didn't see half a wave, and he even wanted to laugh in his heart. Knowing that the movement outside was coming into his ears, Jin Shu opened his mouth to reveal the matter. However, even if the county order ordered the officials to stop in time, the old lady would have already suffered at least ten boards.
Ten boards is nothing for a strong adult, but the old lady of the Zhao family is so old after all, and it is already a blessing that she is still alive after being beaten.
The onlookers outside couldn't bear to look at this scene, but after thinking about it, it wasn't just that the old lady was looking for something on her own. And everyone guessed according to Fang Caijinshu's words, and also estimated that this old lady was not a good person, so they didn't have special sympathy when they saw her being beaten.
It didn't take long for the old lady to be carried back by two servants. Compared with the vigorous appearance when he was dragged out, the Zhao family at this moment was obviously wilted. She was lying on the ground, and she didn't have the strength to support her upper body.
As for the old man next to her, as well as her precious son and precious grandson, it is estimated that she has already been frightened at this time, so she didn't even dare to do such a trivial thing as coming to help her.
