Chapter 140: Death sentence

Guo Fenglin's face showed a look of satisfaction, and he said: "Now that this official continues to try the case, Lu Maocai, since you don't admit your guilt, then this official will make you speechless!

"I'm waiting here!"

Immediately, several scholars led by Zhao Bo walked to the front of the hall and looked at Guo Fenglin deeply, showing a smug expression. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

At this time, Lu Ming was sitting on the chair, but they didn't dare to re-seat, for fear of "sin and deception", so they could only stand.

Lu Ming smiled and said: "Zhao Bo, now that I am a suspect, you are standing, it should be even more humiliating for you!"

"Shut up!, did the official let you speak!", Guo Fenglin shouted.

Lu Ming had no choice but to shut up and shook his head.

Guo Fenglin glanced at the witnesses and said, "Tell me everything you saw!"

"Yes!"

The witnesses began to narrate: "When I was grabbing medicine in Jishitang that day, Lu Maocai suddenly broke in, and without saying a word, he demolished Dr. Li's signboard, and then had a quarrel with Dr. Li, and killed him in a fit of rage!"

"That's right, I also saw with my own eyes at the time that Lu Maocai killed all the medicine children in order to cover up his crime after killing Dr. Li, and a few of our friends went up to stop it together, but they were not opponents. ”

"Lu Maocai is almost frenzied, he does all kinds of evil, these are what we have seen with our own eyes, please see, my lord, all of us have been injured, it is absolutely impossible to be fake!"

At this time, someone in the crowd shouted: "Lu Maocai has killed innocents so indiscriminately, and he has read the book of sages in vain!"

"My lord, Lu Ming killed my child who was a medicine boy in Jishitang, please be the master of the people!"

"My lord, Lu Ming is extremely vicious, careless of human life, and deserves to be executed!"

On this street, there were hundreds of people shouting grievances, which really surprised Lu Ming.

With a "snap", Guo Fenglin's face was furious, and he said: "Suspect Lu Ming, are you guilty!"

"Is it my turn to speak?"

Lu Ming snorted coldly and said, "If you want to add to the crime, there is no excuse! Do you think this kind of little trick can deceive everyone present?"

Then he stood up and said to the people outside the yamen: "Fellow fathers and villagers in Suzhou, these witnesses are all protΓ©gΓ©s of Guo Fenglin, do you believe what they say!"

"Don't believe it!"

Hundreds of people spoke in unison, and then the people behind also began to shout after knowing Lu Ming's question, and finally tens of thousands of people shouted, the sound was deafening.

Guo Fenglin's face turned pale and a little ugly.

"Ladies and gentlemen in Suzhou, you ......"

"Lu Ming, you are talking nonsense!"

Zhao Bo shouted, "This is the public court, how can you be honest!"

"Presumptuous! I am Liang Guomaocai, Liang Junqin's fourth-grade Wenjue, and you are only a witness in the court now, but you intervened when I was talking, and you should be slapped!"

Then he looked at Guo Fenglin, "Lord Guo, this is the public court, you should know how to do it!"

"You ......", Guo Fenglin looked angry.

"Palm, palm, palm!", countless people shouted along.

Zhao Bo gritted his teeth angrily and shouted: "Lu Ming, you are simply an inch, you are a suspect now, I am a witness, I ......"

"Smack!"

Guo Fenglin slapped the shocked wood and shouted: "Zhao Bo is guilty of the following crimes, come here, and slap your mouth for thirty!"

immediately dropped the order to sign, looking iron-faced and selfless, but said in his heart: "I'm sorry, Zhao Gongzi, I will definitely pour wine to make amends afterwards!"

"Yes!"

The official immediately took down Zhao Bo and slapped his mouth fiercely, and every time he hit, Zhao Bo screamed in pain.

After thirty palms, Zhao Bo's face turned red, but the official still showed mercy to his subordinates and did not break his teeth, and a bitter scene passed.

Yang Xiuyuan smiled and said, "This Lu Ming still has two hits! The officials above the public court are the greatest, and it is in line with the law to suppress Zhao Bo with an official position!"

The fourth prince nodded, his eyes firm: "If this person can help me become the crown prince, why can't I be at peace with the world!"

"Listening to the meaning of the fourth prince, do you think that the old man can't help you achieve great things?"

"Don't dare!", the fourth prince immediately bowed his head and looked apologetic.

Yang Xiuyuan looked at the four princes with appreciation, and thought: "Corporal Lixian, I care about the world, I really didn't see the wrong person!"

Then he returned to the court and looked at the situation.

Guo Fenglin took a sip of tea, didn't speak for a while, and was thinking at the same time.

After a while, Guo Fenglin spoke: "Suspect, do you really admit your guilt?"

"No confession!", Lu Ming said.

Guo Fenglin slapped the shocked wood again, and said: "Come on, the confession is coming!

"What are you going to do!"

Lu Ming's face changed in shock, and he was immediately captured left and right, and then, a servant took a confession and put it in front of Lu Ming.

"You want to force me to draw a charge?", Lu Ming's face was ugly.

"The evidence that you killed the whole Jishitang is conclusive, since you don't admit your guilt, then let this official help you! If anyone refuses to accept the grievances, he will be punished with 30 rods!"

Guo Fenglin's voice lagged behind, and many people who wanted to open their mouths to shout grievances immediately held back their words, showing a fierce expression.

Lu Ming couldn't break free, so he had to watch his hand being controlled by others, press his handprint on the confession, and was forced to confess.

Zhao Bo immediately snatched the confession, read it first and laughed, and then handed it to Guo Fenglin, "My lord, please take a look!"

Guo Fenglin looked at it again, showed a satisfied face, and said proudly: "You are Maocai, I will not bend to you, so you should feel very lucky." ”

"Guo Fenglin, you dog official, you can't die well!", Lu Ming roared.

"Dare to be hard-mouthed, come here, slap your mouth!"

"I'm sorry, Lu Maocai, we are also acting on orders!"

The official bowed his head slightly in apology, and then waved his palm fiercely.

"Wait!"

Zhao Bo immediately walked over, pushed the official aside, and sneered: "I'll slap my mouth!"

With a "snap", there was an extra slap mark on Lu Ming's face, but it dispelled his anger and became more sober.

"Haha, it's so happy, it's so happy!...... haha," Zhao Bo laughed.

Lu Ming also smiled, "Hehe...... Well played, well played, please give me another slap in the face. ”

"You ......", Zhao Bo was stunned for a moment.

Guo Fenglin shouted: "Then fight again!"

"Smack!"

Lu Ming also had a slap mark on the other side of his face, and this scene made everyone look angry and look at Zhao Bo viciously.

"Haven't you eaten!Give me some strength!You're still a scholar!", Lu Ming suddenly roared.

"Smack!"

This slap Zhao Bo used enough strength, but Lu Ming is a god-given scholar and has received four talent empowerments, so his physique is far better than ordinary people, this slap can't hurt him, but it will be very painful.

"I'll let you run rampant! I'll let you run rampant, let you run rampant!"

Zhao Bo kept clapping his hands at Lu Ming, and the smile on his face was very crazy and vicious.

"Enough!"

Guo Fenglin shouted: "He is Maocai, you still have to leave him some dignity, after all, someone has interceded for him." ”

Zhao Bo knew who he was talking about, it was the fourth prince who came to visit the prison yesterday, but he didn't know his true identity yet.

Guo Fenglin quickly drafted a document, together with the confession, and at the same time passed the content to the Criminal Department with the help of the official seal.

The death penalty can be decided by the Imperial Court Criminal Department, while only the Criminal Department of the Holy Court can approve the death penalty for scholars below the rank of Hanlin.

The Jingzhou Criminal Department soon received the contents of the paperwork, and when Tang Bin, a bachelor of the Criminal Department, was about to approve it, the door was opened, and a middle-aged man entered, who was Zhou Dongyue, a scholar of Legalist University.

Many of the officials of the Criminal Department present looked at it and looked unkind.

Tang Bin's face changed, and he thought that it was too inopportune, so he immediately said in a deep voice: "Scholar Zhou, what are you doing!"

"I heard that Lu Ming from Suzhou went to court on suspicion of murder, so I asked Liang Jun for an order and came to the Criminal Department to see what the outcome was. ”

Zhou Dongyue said as he took out a token.

"Look at the results? Hmph, it's a pity that you're late, Lord Guo applied for a death sentence for Lu Ming, and we have already approved it. ”

"Sentenced to death?"

Zhou Dongyue's face changed greatly, and he immediately shouted: "Tang Bin, you dare to approve the death sentence of Lu Ming, do you know that Lu Ming was wronged!"

"I know, but he has already confessed, so he will definitely die, and I also act according to the law, is there a problem?", Tang Bin sneered.

"You ......"

Zhou Dongyue's face was so angry that he couldn't wait to make a move on Tang Bin, but in the end he held back and snorted coldly: "Scholar Tang, you remember it for me, I will definitely avenge Lu Ming for this revenge!"

"Hmph, let's talk about it when you have that ability!", Tang Bin laughed.

"You wait for me!"

Zhou Dongyue waved his sleeves and turned to leave.

"Hehe, fight with us, you don't want to see if you have the ability!"

The ridicule on Tang Bin's face became more and more intense, and then he used the official seal to directly approve Guo Fenglin's trial.

Hongyan's biography immediately arrived at Guo Fenglin's official seal, only to see that his face was happy, and he released the document to everyone, and at the same time slapped the shocking wood, and said in a loud voice: "Lu Ming killed Jishitang, the evidence is conclusive, the crime is extremely evil, and heaven does not tolerate it, and now the official announces that Liang Guomao will be sentenced to Lu Ming to be killed, and he will be executed at noon!"

After the words were spoken, Zhao Bo suddenly burst out laughing, very happy.

"Oh my God!

Countless people sat on the ground, their faces desperate, shouting at the heavens.

"Lu Mao is innocent, how can he be sentenced to death?

"Lu Maocai wrote "Liweng Rhyme" and spread all over the world, making a great contribution to the human race, and he wrote a poem to kill demons in the north of the town and recover the lost land, how could he die unjustly!"

"Woo...... This dog official can't die well, he can't die well!"

Lu Ming's eyes were cold, he stared at Guo Fenglin tightly, and said, "Does Lord Guo really want to sentence me to death?"

"That's natural, the Criminal Department has approved it, you will definitely die!", Guo Fenglin said with a smile.

"Not necessarily!"

Lu Ming sneered, took out a golden token from his arms, and held it high, with the words "Avoid Death" engraved on it. (To be continued.) )
