Chapter 69: When the Trial Proceeds
"We don't have much to talk about, you know what you're doing." A cold light flickered in Gu Xuan's eyes, "They will definitely get the punishment they deserve!" ”
The man sitting opposite Gu Xuan crossed his legs indifferently, he snapped his fingers, and immediately the servant behind him took out a box.
Boom!
The boxes were spread out on the table, and the slightly dark room immediately glowed with a dazzling golden light.
"It's a gold brick worth 1 gold coin, and if you agree to keep it private, then you'll get ten more of these chests." The man's hands were flat on the table, and his voice was as seductive as a demon's whisper.
10 gold coins are really enough for an ordinary person to squander enough property for a lifetime.
It was the early morning of the judgment day, and the trial was at noon, and this man came over to negotiate with Gu Xuan on behalf of the noble circle.
"That's a lot of money, but what if I say I'm not short of money?" Gu Xuan asked rhetorically with a lack of interest.
The man sneered, but he didn't expect the young man in front of him to open his mouth so loudly, and directly slapped it on the table and said, "Add another 5 gold coins." ”
Gu Xuan shook his head helplessly, this man would have misunderstood what he meant, he was really not short of money, and the money in the copy world would be of no use at all after leaving.
"Did I say I really don't lack money, or do you think you can do whatever you want?"
After hearing Gu Xuan's firm tone, the man finally changed his complacent appearance in the previous negotiation, and suddenly jumped up and said with a roar: "Don't be ignorant, all the families whose evidence you have have been bought by us with gold coins. If you really go to trial, your evidence is a useless pile of blank paper. ”
"Really? We'll see what happens! Since he tore his face, Gu Xuan didn't give a good face, and waved his hand: "Send off!" ”
The man was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Gu Xuan's decisiveness and non-negotiability, his eyes suddenly became dangerous, revealing a sinister aura, and then slammed the door with a cold snort.
Gu Xuan shook his head again, he knew a bad news, but it didn't interfere with his plan at all.
This man wanted Gu Xuan to cooperate with the four nobles during the trial. The execution ground of the imperial capital of the trial is very large, and when the trial comes, there will definitely be a sea of poor people to witness this unique trial.
Although these high-ranking nobles despise these poor people, they are fearful. Therefore, they planned to buy Gu Xuan with gold coins, and then sing a red and white face, so that these poor people could understand the authority of being nobles again.
However, this man didn't expect that Gu Xuan refused to cooperate without any hesitation. However, as he said, they have absolute confidence in this trial, and no matter how bad the situation is, these four nobles will definitely not be executed.
......
Imperial Capital Execution Ground! The disc-shaped buildings, arranged in circles and circles, can at least accommodate the general population of the entire imperial capital.
Usually it is a gladiatorial arena, and some jousting competitions are held from time to time. But everyone in the imperial capital also knows that this place is used as a place of execution.
Since the establishment of the empire for thousands of years, countless leaders of the rebels have been executed here after their failed rebellion.
"Old man, in fact, you don't need to appear in court, I have a way to punish these nobles." The time for the trial was about to begin, and Gu Xuan, who was staying in the lounge, said respectfully to the old man in the castle town.
"No, whether it's for the sake of telling everyone about the corners of the mouths of those ugly nobles. Or I, as a father, want to seek justice for my daughter, and I have to stand up. The old man slammed his cane on the ground, his face red and his ears choked with excitement.
This made Hill, who was always by the old man's side, anxiously pat the old man's back.
The old man waved his hand to signal that he was okay, and then said with a soft smile: "Thank you very much, otherwise I wouldn't have seen this day even if I swallowed this breath." ”
Seeing the old man's gesture of kneeling and thanking, Gu Xuan hurriedly stopped and said: "This is my business, and there will be more and more people to change this decaying empire in the future, and sooner or later it will become a gentle world." ”
"Really? I want to see that old man. The old man's rickety back straightened and said expectantly.
Gu Xuan nodded, turned around and went to the execution ground first.
There was a long passage in the lounge connected to the execution ground, and as soon as I walked out, I couldn't open my eyes in the dazzling sunlight.
Then he came into view of the dense crowd of all kinds of people. Even the straight passage where they walked was crowded with people, and the sound of their heated discussion was invisibly like a pressure.
"Gu-Xuan!" Suddenly, after the people saw the people who appeared at the execution site, the loudest shouts broke out fiercely.
The voices of these poor people were all in support of him. This made Gu Xuan no longer under pressure, and he laughed lightly, bowing and thanking him around.
Most of these bustling crowds were wearing only coarse linen shirts and trousers, and the tattered holes in the clothes were shabby. They were the poor people from the slums of the imperial capital, and after learning what Gu Xuan had done, they became the admiration of all the poor people.
However, the closer you look at the execution site, it is as if an inner circle separates the surrounding poor. Most of the people in this stand were dressed in loose fur coats of fine fabric, which were particularly conspicuous compared to the poor masses. Not surprisingly, these people were from the nobles of the imperial capital, and they looked back at the cries of the poor people around them with disgusted expressions, as if they felt that it was a shame to condescend here.
"Ernest ......" Suddenly, Gu Xuan saw an interesting person in this inner circle. The image of a bloated giant man is eye-catching with a greasy steak in his hand and a big bite to eat.
Then, Gu Xuan circled around again, and sure enough, he found General Bude with a Y-shaped hairstyle on the other side. The armor is tight, and there is an amazing momentum that can be felt from such a distance.
The empire is now the most authoritative, and the two who also correspond to civil and military officials have come to the execution ground of the imperial capital. It is enough to show that this event of the first aristocratic trial has a deep impact!
After scanning the crowd, he naturally came to look at the execution ground. In the center of the circular execution ground, a large podium was placed. Two staff members stood on either side, and a chair above the podium sat a Humpty Dumpty, legs crossed, elbows propped on the back of the chair, waving his arms and yawning from time to time. As if the trial that followed would be very boring...... And the ending is a foregone conclusion!
"Your name is Gu Xuan, right?" Humpty Dumpty glanced at the time and glanced at Gu Xuan, "It's early, and there is still an hour before the trial begins." ”
Before Gu Xuan could say anything, the surrounding poor people let out a noise of dissatisfaction with righteous indignation.
"Quiet, the defendant is a nobleman, and he needs to wear aristocratic attire when he goes to court, so the start time of the trial has been delayed by one hour." Humpty Dumpty raised his voice and repeated, while hurriedly glancing over the entire execution ground.
As a result, the noise grew louder, and everyone became angry because of this unconventional delay. Finally, after a long time, it seemed that the poor people were crying out tired, and gradually calmed down.
Gu Xuan didn't argue throughout the whole process, it was a waste of words. He had long expected that this short and fat presiding judge would be on Earnest's side, and would definitely favor the aristocratic side and suppress himself to the greatest extent.
However, Gu Xuan looked at General Bude with interest. Sure enough, he frowned, his face a little cloudy and thinking about something.
Interesting! Cutting off distracting thoughts, Gu Xuan closed his eyes and stood to rest, waiting for an hour to pass.
