Xing had never read any books, and it was not strange that he didn't understand punishment, but because Xing Shuang asked so carefully, Jia Zhu didn't have a trace of suspicion, and immediately explained her doubts.

For there were five kinds of punishments: flogging, rods, migration, exile, and death.

The highest punishment is the death penalty, the first class is flow, and the second class is migration.

This means that the convict is forced to relocate thousands of miles away from his place of origin, and he cannot return to his place of origin for the rest of his life. You don't have to serve, but you have to be supervised, you can live on your own, and you can still live like a normal person.

This kind of punishment sounds like nothing to the ears of modern people, and the punishment is the same as not being punished.

But in ancient times, such punishment was set to the third degree, not without reason.

First of all, the ancients paid the most attention to the place of origin, even if they died, they should pay attention to the fallen leaves and return to the roots. For those who have migrated out of their place of origin and cannot return to their place of origin for the rest of their lives, there is no difference between living and dying.

Secondly, there were not so many cities at this time, so prosperous, and urban construction was not as rich as modern ones. It is difficult to say whether a place of origin is a remote or a wild place.

In modern times, as long as there is money, even the countryside can live. But in ancient times, where there was no city construction, it was like surviving in the wild, and money did not necessarily buy daily necessities, which was the biggest torture for people who were used to pampering.

After listening to the explanation, Xing Shuang sighed softly.

Jia Zhu saw that there was an unbearable look on her face, and she felt very guilty.

His father was holding a sword to kill his aunt, not to mention in the General's Mansion, even in the homes of ordinary people, it is also unbelievable. People who have never read a book still know that they should not disobey their brothers and sisters-in-law, and their father still claims to be full of poetry and books, and he still does such a thing, which is really unbearable.

"Aunt......" Jia Zhu wanted to say something, but Xing Shuang raised his hand to interrupt him.

"There is no need to mention it again at this time, for if it is really made public, your father will not escape punishment. But whether it was exile or migration, it would kill him. When Xing Shuang spoke, her voice fluttered, and it seemed that the blow was not small.

Jia Zhu and his entourage left tears in their eyes, lifted their robes and knelt on the spot, choked up at Xing Shuang and said, "Thank you aunt for your great kindness." ”

Jia Liang suddenly became anxious on the side, and shouted at Xing Shuang: "You're afraid you're crazy!" ”

Xing Shuang turned her head, winked at her husband, and when she spoke, her voice was still melancholy: "Master doesn't need to say it anymore, I can't cause my second uncle to move to another country for me." ”

Jia Liang was stunned, a little bit didn't understand what kind of medicine was sold in his wife's gourd, so he had to put down his doubts, turned his head and rushed down: "Take the second child to the ancestral hall and think about it in front of the ancestors!" No one is allowed to let him out, and no one is allowed to go in to see him without my command. If you violate this order, you will be killed! ”

The people below were all shocked, but they were also prepared.

The last time Aunt Zhao just scolded his wife, the second master was locked up by the eldest master and knelt in the ancestral hall for a night. This time, the second master wants to kill his wife, so it's no wonder that the eldest master will spare him.

The mother-in-law escorted Jia Zheng to the ancestral hall with a familiar car, and Jia Liang came over and pulled his wife and said, "Let's go back." ”

Xing Shuang knew that he had a lot of questions to ask in his heart, nodded at her husband, and then instructed Jia Zhu: "Go in and see your mother, she is also frightened." Besides, she had a wound on her head, and she had to rest. The old lady is still inside, and if you go in to see your mother in a while, you will send the old lady back, don't let too many people trouble your mother. ”

Jia Zhu wiped her tears and said "yes", watched her uncle and aunt leave, and then went into the house to see his mother.

Xing Shuang and Jia Liang went back to Qingyuanju, and as soon as they entered the house, they saw that Tanchun Yingchun and other children were already waiting in the house, and when they saw their parents coming back, they all greeted them and asked.

Xing Shuang had something to say to her husband, waved her hand to let them disperse, and then instructed: "This matter has nothing to do with you, even if you hear any rumors, don't ask again." ”

The sons and daughters did not dare to disobey, so they had to answer and retreat.

After everyone in the house left, Xing Shuang took the maid out again, and then told Jia Liang what he thought.

Jia Liang listened to his wife's plan and couldn't help but gasp again and again.

"Yes, you little trick."

Xing Shuang glanced at him and said, "Why is it called a black belly when a man knows a strategy, and a woman is called a scheming if he understands a strategy?" Are you a straight man with cancer? ”

Jia Liang smiled speechlessly and bitterly: "This is also a word made up by you women, what does it matter to me." But wife, do you really want to use this method? I think it's good to use my patriarchal rights directly to expel Jia Zhen from her citizenship. If your plan doesn't work, won't you vomit yourself to death? ”

Xing Shuang sneered and said: "It's easy to move your rights, but for a waste, ruining the image you have created for a long time, then haven't we worked hard all these years in vain?" ”

Jia Liang sighed: "It's also my negligence, I just thought that there was Zhu'er at home who could resist the heavy responsibility, and Lian'er and Cong'er were also sensible, so I forgot that there was a waste brother." ”

Xing Shuang comforted him when he heard this: "Not only did you forget, but I also forgot." It's also because I used to be blindly for the sake of fame, but my heart has relented. Now it seems that sometimes it is really not necessary to be soft. ”

Jia Liang also sighed: "You really can't be soft, it's better to be like this." Follow your plan first, and if something happens or you don't go according to your plan, I'll help you. ”

Xing Shuang nodded, and talked to her husband again, and then called the maid in, and did not mention it when she washed and changed her clothes and went to sleep.

only said that the next morning, Xing Shuang got up early in the morning and sat in front of the window. Jin Chuan and Yu Chuan came in to serve, but she refused to get up to freshen up, and the two maids were in a hurry.

Looking at the bed again, the old man was still asleep, and seeing that the time of the last dynasty was approaching, the two maids could only go and call the old man to get up first.

Who knew that Jia Liang sat up, scratched his head and scolded randomly: "The last fart is in the court, Lao Tzu is on fire, and he is on leave!" ”

After speaking, he covered his head under the quilt and lay down again, no matter how Jin Chuan and Yu Chuan called him, he couldn't get up.

Jin Chuan couldn't, so he had to go out to Rongxi Hall, find the master's henchman Jiawang, and ask him to bring a message to Jia Zhu and give the master some excerpts for leave.

Jiawang came to the side courtyard of Zhijietang at this end, reported the letter and waited for the transmission, but Jia Zhu walked out directly.

"It's just right, I'm also going to take leave, you can go to Rongxi Hall with me, pen and ink ready."

Jiawang was busy leading the way, and when he arrived at Rongxi Hall, Jia Zhu wrote two leave excerpts, one was presented to the Imperial Palace, and the other was sent to the Hanlin Academy.

Jia Zhu folded the fold and told Jiawang to deliver it, then turned around and went back to his yard.
