Chapter 71: The Trial Ends
The staff who stood on the side of the four nobles were the first to react. It's a bad situation, it can't go on like this!
Originally, according to the plan of the nobles, the best case scenario was that the four nobles were arrogantly holding slave certificates, as well as those invalid evidence. With the help of the presiding judge Humpty Dumpty, the four nobles were acquitted and the authority of the nobles was once again established.
However, I didn't expect that after this old man's witness came out, the situation was bad and bad, and it had come to the worst result today. Even if the four nobles were eventually found not guilty, the authority of their nobles had plummeted.
However, instead of angrily scolding these four waste aristocrats, the staff knew that at least Humpty Dumpty's presiding judge should quickly acquit them.
He crept up next to Chief Humpty Dumpty and shook him violently.
Humpty Dumpty also reacted, stood up and pounded the table and roared, "Soldier! Soldier! ”
Soon, some soldiers who maintained order calmed down the rioting civilians. The main thing was that violence could not be used in plain sight, so it took a while to stop the scene of what could be called a riot.
"May I ask the four nobles, do you have any excuses for the testimony of the witnesses?" Presiding Judge Humpty Dumpty deliberately raised his voice and motioned for the staff to wake them up.
Now these four nobles are simply frightened and cowardly, and it is obviously a sure judgment to win. No matter how passionate, empathetic, and incendiary this old man witness is?
As long as these four nobles do not admit it, and then introduce a scapegoat that has been prepared for a long time, then this trial will definitely not stain these four nobles at all.
As a result, in the entire imperial capital execution ground, all the masses and even the presiding judge looked at the four nobles. Not a single one noticed......
"I... Me, me, me! As soon as the staff came, Buck jerked his head up, his pupils dilated, and he said four me in an obsessive way.
The staff's heart chuckled, shouldn't it? No matter how frightened they are, but this is a life-and-death situation, how can they possibly put on such a frightened and speechless appearance?
At this time, the other three nobles also raised their heads at the same time, looking exactly like Buck, and also said the four mes obsessively.
"I'm guilty!" In unison, the four nobles said hoarsely.
Swish!
Suddenly, the crowd in the audience suddenly jumped to their feet, and the soldiers who maintained order did not stop them. Because their expressions were like seeing the undead in broad daylight, their eyes widened, and they all gasped.
Silence, deathly silence.
Then the first to break the silence atmosphere were the nobles in the circle of nobles. One by one, they lost the pride of the nobles, just like the uncles and aunts bargaining in the vegetable market, and they roared madly at the four nobles in the execution ground.
However, as if they had not heard, the four nobles threw themselves to their knees and threw their heads in the direction of the old man.
Boom!
The sound of his head hitting the soil was so loud that everyone could hear it clearly and was moved.
The four nobles shouted in unison: "All this is what we ordered our men to do, and we confess our sins." ”
Click! It was like a bolt from the blue, and everyone on the aristocratic side was shocked to lose the ability to think. And the masses are convinced that they really saw the ghost in broad daylight, but so what?
The resounding applause that broke through the sky, flapped like crazy, and roared and applauded, God opened his eyes and so on.
"Chief Judge Humpty Dumpty, since even the four nobles of the defendant have confessed to their crimes, can they be convicted according to their crimes?"
The corners of Gu Xuan's mouth caught a smile of conspiracy, closed his eyes, and shouted to urge Humpty Dumpty to hurry up and proceed to the next step.
Capricorn Eyes!
Gu Xuan's barrier was the power of his Fourth True Ancestor, although the strength was not as powerful as the power of summoning the Dependent Beast, who was his opponent? It's four cowardly guys who have long been frightened, almost effortlessly.
He seduced the four nobles so that they could not resist their will and confessed their crimes.
This is also why Gu Xuan confidently came to use the form of trial, even if the nobles erased the crimes of these four nobles, it didn't matter if they admitted it themselves, right?
As for closing his eyes, Gu Xuan didn't want his blood-red pupils to be discovered by others.
In the end, the presiding judge Humpty Dumpty, who was riding a tiger, was desperately delaying time, while the four nobles still confessed their sins. Finally, he had no choice but to convict the four nobles!
......
Three days later, the four nobles were pushed to the execution table. Not only were they beheaded for their crimes, but they were also stripped of their assets and nobility.
The execution ground was crowded with people, and not a single nobleman appeared, and they did not dare to appear. Almost all the civilians of the imperial capital are crowded here to witness this scene that is enough to go down in history!
The turmoil of this trial incident deserves to be a sensational event that has shaken the long river of history.
In the past, it was not without nobles who were convicted at the execution grounds of the imperial capital, but without exception, the plaintiffs were all equivalent nobles, or directly charged by the emperor. The identity of the deputy captain of the imperial capital garrison was not enough for Gu Xuan's identity to transform into a nobleman.
Therefore, this trial is equivalent to the first time that a commoner has passed the trial and defeated the nobles! The meaning behind it not only made all the civilians in the empire straighten their backs, but also greatly dispelled the lawlessness of the aristocracy.
This was disguised and discouraged the revolutionary army, because the nobles relented from this incident. At least until this incident has passed, they will definitely not dare to do whatever they want.
This has drastically reduced the pressure on the civilians, so who will want to join the revolutionary army against the behemoth of the empire?
As for Gu Xuan, the figurine, his popularity reached its peak among the commoners, although he also became the target of hatred of all nobles.
In short, the current Gu Xuan was sitting in the office of the Imperial Capital Garrison, and he did not go to the execution ground to watch. There is no need, and there are things to be said to be explained.
Standing in the room were: Seleuc, Hill, Black Hitomi, Silver, and Natara.
"Vice Captain Gu Xuan, you, why are you resigning!" Sai Leu patted his chest puzzled, and asked Gu Xuan, who had already submitted his resignation letter just now.
Gu Xuan smiled disappreciatively, the exchange of interests, it was impossible for the nobles to let Gu Xuan sit in this position with the right to arrest.
"But, but I still ......," Seleu lowered his head and hesitated with his little hands crossed.
"Learn slowly, I believe that Seleu will have his own opinions in the future." Gu Xuan knew about this incident, which brought his status in Sai Liu's heart to the level of worship.
However, Gu Xuan just wanted to correct Sai Liu's paranoid sense of justice, and too much intervention would cause Sai Lu to lose his own opinions.
"No, I decided." Sai Lu raised his head suddenly, his eyes were no longer confused, and he looked at Gu Xuan with admiration, "The justice that Lord Gu Xuan abides by is the justice of Sai Leu!" ”
Belch! Looking at Sai Liu's energetic face, Gu Xuan couldn't say anything. Anyway, if only Seleuc didn't lose her own opinions, and who hates being looked at by people?
Seleuc then left the room. Her identity dictated that the rest of the conversation could not be made known to her.
That's about future planning, and an important piece of news: Bud is going to summon Gu Xuan!
