Chapter 314: What a crime?
Xing Shuang held Jia's mother, who stumbled and ran to the porch, with one hand, without looking at her, and shouted sharply: "Why don't you help the old lady go back to rest?" ”
It is rare for people below to see the eldest lady have a seizure, and such anger frightened even the mandarin ducks in a panic, and hurriedly came up to support Jia's mother.
Xing Shuang walked down the corridor, ignoring Jia's mother's cry, and said to Jia Liang: "Master is slow, the state has national laws, and the family has family rules." No matter what we do, we have to give everyone an explanation. Don't be angry for a while, but be told that we are bullying the small. ”
Jia Liang said: "He has been disobedient to me since he was a child, and when he grows up, he is even more disobedient everywhere. This time, he still raises his sword against you at every turn, and if he can't keep it, he will poison me next time, so as to relieve the hatred in his heart. ”
Xing Shuang was really upset when she heard Mother Jia crying, so she turned around and shouted, "Mandarin duck, haven't you served anyone?" Don't know what to do? The old lady is old, and it is not appropriate to be sad at this time, and it is not good to help the old lady go back quickly! ”
The mandarin duck trembled with fright, and hurriedly cried to persuade Jia's mother to go back, where was Jia's mother willing to go, turned around and rushed into Wang's house, wanting to plead with Wang's.
Wang had been listening to the sound outside, and she was startled when she heard Jia's mother come in, and quickly looked up at the top of the bed, not daring to disobey her sister-in-law's orders.
Xing Shuang just annoyed that Jia's mother kept crying, but now Jia's mother went in, and her voice was quiet, so she didn't care.
At this time, she turned back to her husband and said, "It's still the same sentence, you have to deal with him, you shouldn't deal with it alone." You are the head of a clan, if even you defy the Fa, how will the children of the clan feel? ”
Jia Liang was so angry that he jumped to his feet: "But he wants to kill you!" ”
Xing Shuang walked over and gently put his hand on Jia Liang's arm: "Okay, put the sword down." ”
Jia Liang was originally angry, but suddenly he was obedient like a kitten, and threw his sword on the ground with a bang.
"Are you scared?" Jia Liang couldn't wait to take his wife into his arms at this time and coax her fiercely. But this ancient is trouble, if he does this, Xing Shuang will not be able to raise his head tomorrow. He could only endure this thought, constantly looking his wife up and down, carefully observing his wife's expression.
"He's just a drunkard, he stumbles and doesn't even have the strength, and when I pass by with a vase, he shouts that I'm going to kill him, I'm going to be afraid of him?"
Xing Shuang sneered contemptuously, seeing that Jia Zheng dared to look up at him at this time, he walked over and relied on Jia Zheng to be tied up, and slapped him with a slap.
"What are you looking at?"
Jia Zheng was stunned, why didn't she know that this sister-in-law was so fierce before, didn't she want to come in the name of softness?
Jia Liang was afraid that his wife had leaked the filling, so he quickly pulled his wife aside, and dismissed the people around him not to approach, so he asked his wife in a low voice: "What's the matter with you, he's like this, you still won't let me cut him a few times?" ”
Xing Shuang also whispered back: "If you cut it today, it won't be so easy to clean him up later." He was charged with this crime, and he used it to drive him out for once. ”
Jia Liang's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "What do you say?" But if you drive him out, won't you also drive out the Zhu'er family, and then we don't want our title? ”
Xing Shuang's eyes flashed, and she squeezed her eyes at her husband: "This matter, naturally I have to find a scholar to solve it." We're both illiterate, so why don't we find someone who understands the law and ask? ”
Jia Liang suddenly realized, turned his head and rushed down: "Call Brother Zhu!" ”
There was Jia Liang's little servant standing at the gate of the courtyard, and as soon as he heard this, he immediately ran to the side courtyard. This Jia Zhu became a relative, and lived in the side courtyard outside the Zhijie Hall, because it was far away, and the Wang family had an order not to disturb that side, so the matter here, that side did not know it.
After a while, Jia Zhu followed the little guy with a sweaty face, and at this time, Jia Liang had already asked his mother-in-law to stand up with Jia Zheng in his arms, and didn't let him kneel anymore.
As soon as Jia Zhu entered the courtyard, he was shocked when he saw his father's extremely embarrassed appearance. On the way here, he had heard Jiawang say the reason why the eldest lord called him, and he was thinking about how to make amends to the eldest lord all the way.
Seeing that his father was tied up at this time, Jia Zhu said badly, so he hurriedly came up and asked Xing Shuang first: "Auntie is all right?" When I heard about this, I really worried my nephew to death. ”
Xing Shuang's mood calmed down at this time, and said to him calmly: "I'm fine, this matter is not in a hurry." I called you here for one thing. Your father's matter is so big a stir today, and I can't hide it if I want to. And your uncle's temper...... Alas, you know that too. ”
Jia Liang stiffened his neck and shouted, "What kind of temper do I have?" He beat his wife at home, you were kind enough to persuade but he shouted and shouted to kill, if I don't get angry again, is there still a bit of male blood? ”
Jia Zhu hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Uncle's words are very true, the eldest man should protect his wife and son, and the nephew does not dare to be partial, so he should talk about things." ”
Xing Shuang then said: "Although I haven't read any books, I also know that this country has national laws and family rules. It's just that your uncle's mind is never focused on reading, and it's a headache for another day. You are both a flower explorer and an errand boy in the Hanlin Academy, so you must know the law of the land better than we do.
"Let me ask you, what is the crime of my uncle trying to kill my sister-in-law?"
Jia Zhu broke out in a cold sweat, but because of his integrity, he replied honestly: "This move is a crime of rebellion." Anyone who beats or murders a grandparent or parent, or kills an uncle's parents, aunt, brother, sister, maternal grandparent, husband's or husband's grandparents or parents, shall be punished with beheading regardless of the offender's head. ”
Xing Shuang nodded, and then asked, "But he didn't kill me, what should he do?" ”
Jia Zhu said bitterly: "If it is an attempt, the punishment will be reduced by one degree." ”
Xing Shuang turned his head to look at Jia Liang and said, "Listen to what people say, you don't know if you ask three questions, and you still want to be an official of the imperial court." ”
Jia Liang stiffened his neck: "My father is dead, and I am the head of the family." My eldest brother is my father, so why should I deal with him? ”
Xing Shuang shook her head and said, "You better stop talking, I have a headache." ”
Jia Liang snorted, flicked his sleeves and stepped aside. Xing Shuang whispered to Jia Zhu again: "This punishment is reduced to one level, I'm afraid that your father can't stand that punishment, I only ask you, but there are lighter charges." ”
Jia Zhu was overjoyed when he heard this, although he himself was upright, he also knew that his father's incident today was too absurd, and even if he was punished, he was self-inflicted. But his aunt can think about people like this, it is really a bodhisattva's heart, and he is very moved.
"Aunt Rongyu, in addition to the sin of disobedience, there is also the sin of disharmony. Although this sin is also punishable by death, it is good that the father did not touch the aunt, and he should be able to lower it to two degrees. ”
Xing Shuang asked, "What is the difference between this one level down and two levels?" ”
