Chapter 415: This is legitimate defense

There is no lower limit to the praise of Li Huairen by those officials. What is like a god, what is as wise as a torch, as if this Li Huairen is really some amazing master of breaking eucalyptus.

Zhu Han's goosebumps fell to the ground when he heard it. Not to mention that at this time, even in the future, few people dare to say that just by looking at the dossier, they can immediately judge the truth of the situation.

Even among those detectives, the detectives with a 100% breaking rate need to go to the scene to investigate clues in order to find out the truth of the eucalyptus.

If this Li Huairen really has this kind of ability, then he will definitely become the first detective in ancient and modern times. Such a person, even if it is in the Huanghuang history books, will definitely make a strong record.

Definitely a well-known figure. However, Zhu Han has never heard of such a person in history.

Dare to compare with Bao Zheng...... Not to mention anything else, the thickness of this face alone is definitely rare in Zhu Han's life.

"Oh, there is still a master of Eucalyptus Breaking like Lord Li in the Yanjing Criminal Department? This king has never heard of it before, and it is really disrespectful. Zhu Han sneered contemptuously.

What he admires most about Li Huairen is that he is obviously so sensual and touted, so Li Huairen can still maintain the majestic appearance of his clothes.

It's as if those words weren't a flattery, but they were true.

"The prince is falsely praised, and the lower officials are just doing their duty." …… What is the saying?

People are shameless, and the world is invincible. Zhu Han was suspicious, and pulled off the face of this thing to make a shield, afraid that it would not even be able to block the bullets of the musket.

Not wanting to talk to these guys with sick brains, Zhu Han asked with a calm face:

"Since Master Li is like a god, do you know the cause and effect of this incident?" Zhu Hanhuan thought that Li Huairen would use not knowing as an excuse.

As a result, this guy replied calmly:

"The lower officer has already read the file of the last interrogation."

"Because the victim owes him a little wages, this Miao Lifu openly committed murder with a knife in the downtown area, and this kind of people are simply lawless."

"Xiaguan knows that the prince loves the people so much, and feels that this Miao Lifu is pitiful. But the prince, this kind of Diao people can do murder and overselling goods for the sake of silver today, and they can kill for the sake of money tomorrow. ”

"Lord Wang, you can't excuse him in vain by ignoring the law of the country just because you see them pitiful, and treat the Da Ming Law as child's play."

"In the long run, won't my Da Ming Law become a dead letter?" Good fellow, after so long, there are only a handful of people who dare to point at his nose and scold like this.

If this Li Huairen is really a good official for the country and the people, it would be fine. But this guy seems to be iron-faced and selfless, but in fact, he has a bad stomach at all.

There is no need for Jinyiwei to investigate this person, just by looking at his series of styles, you can know what kind of virtue he is.

Anyway, Zhu Han has never seen a capable official who will be expressionless and let his subordinates boast about himself like this.

As soon as Li Huairen's words were finished, those officials of the Criminal Department also began to echo him.

"What Master Li said makes sense, just for the sake of some money, he dares to commit murder in the street, what kind of good person can this be?"

"Lord Wang, don't be deceived by this Diao Min, he is just pretending to be pitiful to win sympathy. We don't know how many such people we have seen in the Criminal Department. Each of them said that they were just forced to do so. ”

"In any case, it's not right to kill people in the street. Killing pays for life, this is a matter of course. Zhu Han watched coldly and found that among the officials of the Criminal Department, there was almost no one who did not speak for Li Huairen.

Whether they are really attached to Li Huairen or follow the crowd, Zhu Han will keep everything in mind if they open their mouths.

When I go back and wait for this turmoil to pass, I will dispose of all these people. This is the Criminal Department. The person in charge is the criminal name, and if this department is a bunch of fools, the impact will be too great.

Although the various pieces of the imperial court will eventually be handed over to Dali Temple for review. But if there is already a problem on the side of the Criminal Department, the Dali Temple side will naturally be affected.

Ahem! Zhu Han cleared his throat, and when the officials of the Criminal Department quieted down, Zhu Han asked in a deep voice:

"Miao Lifu, this king came to ask you, how much wages do you owe for the money?" Qian Yong is a businessman who owes Miao Lifu wages, according to Jin Yiwei's report, this Qian Yong is a side child of the Qian family in Hedong, responsible for taking care of some of the Qian family's business.

Money is used by this kind of person, and to put it mildly, he was born in a big family. In fact, in addition to the name of this big family, their status is not much stronger than that of the housekeepers.

Even, the status is not as good as those hired by them. This idea is very rare for a qualified shopkeeper, and the salary is absolutely indispensable.

But because the money is used by his own family, the treatment is lower than that of those hired shopkeepers. Miao Lifu's aggrieved answer:

"I originally negotiated one or two taels of silver a month, but I worked with him for half a month, and he should give me six pieces of silver. Later, the owner said that I still had to be taught on the first day of work, so I couldn't count it as silver. On the last day, I only worked half a day, so I couldn't count the money. ”

"The wages he owes me should be ......" Seeing Miao Li snapping his fingers, he worked hard to calculate. Li Huairen snorted disdainfully:

"It's a total of four pieces of silver, don't you even understand this account?"

"Just for this little bit of silver, you can actually hurt a human life, don't you have the slightest shame in your heart?"

"Shut up!" Zhu Han suddenly became furious, looking around for anything at hand. But Zhou Liang only prepared a chair for Zhu Han, and there was nothing else around.

It wasn't Zhou Liang who poked and poked secretly, which made Zhu Han a stumbling block. After all, this is a public court, not the living room of Zhu Han's palace.

As an observer, I can only prepare a chair. The officials of the Criminal Department were confused, and they didn't understand what kind of nerves Zhu Han, His Royal Highness the British King, suddenly had.

Just when they were puzzled, Zhu Han suddenly stood up. grabbed the back of the Taishi chair and smashed it directly in the direction of Li Huairen's location.

The action was so sudden that by the time the officials of the Criminal Department realized what had happened, the chair was already in front of them.

Li Huairen just subconsciously raised his hand to resist. The next moment, the Taishi chair made a close contact with his arm, and then tilted to the side.

The leg of the chair, fortunately, hit the head of a squire next to him, knocking off his official hat.

The officials of the Criminal Department were like frightened ducks. Although Li Huairen blocked the chair to prevent his smashed head from bleeding.

But after the Taishi chair fell to the ground, Li Huairen's hand fell unnaturally, and Cen Cen seemed to be in a very painful way with cold sweat on his face.

Seeing this, another guard of the criminal department who survived the disaster hurriedly asked with concern:

"Are you alright, my lord?" Seeing that Zhu Han didn't throw anything over, the others also hurried to care about Li Huairen.

"Lord Shangshu, your hand?"

"Doctor! Are you all blind? I didn't see that Lord Shangshu was injured, so I didn't hurry up to ask for a doctor. Li Huairen waved his hand with difficulty, signaling that he was fine.

After that, he raised his head and looked at Zhu Han with some anger.

"What does this mean, Your Highness? Do you think that this will be able to block the mouths of the world? The other officials of the Criminal Department also looked at Zhu Han with dissatisfaction.

A dignified prince openly beat the officials of the court. Is there still a royal law? Is there still a law? They are scholars, scholars.

Even those barbarians in Meng Yuan were polite to them.

"People?" Zhu Han looked at them with a cold expression, as if he was going to chop them up alive.

"You dogs, can you also be considered a citizen?" In this big tomorrow, Zhu Han and Zhu Yuanzhang were all beaten from the sea of corpses and blood.

Usually you may think it's nothing, but once Zhu Han is really angry, his momentum is quite terrifying. Many officials of the Criminal Department did not even dare to make eye contact.

There are also those who are not afraid of death, such as Li Huairen, the secretary of the Criminal Department. He raised his head without fear:

"The prince said this, and the lower officials couldn't understand it."

"People like Miao Lifu are people, aren't those merchants my people of the Ming Dynasty? They are also working diligently, and they are also paying the national tax on the imperial grain. ”

"Is it because people like Miao Lifu are poor that they can't even be sentenced for homicide?"

"His Royal Highness once said that everyone in the world should be equal, why did His Royal Highness put people like Miao Lifu above businessmen at this time?"

"It's hard because the merchants are rich, so they deserve whatever happens?" This Li Huairen seems to be upright, but he is a good hand with sharp teeth and reversing black and white.

"Li Daren is right, the merchant is also my Ming people."

"Even if he is in arrears of wages, Miao Lifu can sue the official, and the government will naturally call the shots for him. Since he killed someone, then he should prostrate himself. ”

"Lord Wang, what you did is indeed inappropriate, the lower official is righteous and outspoken, and there is absolutely no selfishness."

"If you let the merchants of Yanjing City know that you let them suffer losses all the time in order to protect people like Miao Lifu, their hearts will be cold." Listening to the officials of the Criminal Department, you and I defended the businessmen.

Zhu Han only felt funny. That's not what these people used to say. They will only say that Shinong industry and commerce, scholar talent is the most important, and they have contributed the most to the Ming Dynasty.

They will also ask for the lives of the people, blow the hard-working peasants to the sky, and advocate that businessmen value profit over righteousness, believing that there is no good thing in the whole world.

When it comes to money, it's like it's something incredibly dirty, and they don't care about it.

Now, it's the other way around. This group of officials, who used to treat businessmen like mustards, said good things about those businessmen one by one.

"So, do you think this king is reversing black and white?" Zhu Han asked coldly. Li Huairen subconsciously wanted to clench his fists, but as soon as he raised his arm, he felt a heart-rending pain in his forearm.

In pain, he gasped again and again, and it was estimated that his bones were broken. At that moment just now, Zhu Han made a move with hatred, and his strength was very strong.

Li Huairen is a guy who is not diligent and does not distinguish between grains and grains when he is studying, and when he becomes an official, he is even dressed and eaten, and his body is too fragile.

Just touched it, and the bone broke.

"Xiaguan...... Hiss...... The lower officials did not dare. Xia Guan and others just hope that this case can be handled impartially. Otherwise, the merchants of Yanjing will not have any security, and I am afraid that they will have to leave. The light in Zhu Han's eyes flashed:

"You're threatening this king?" Such an obvious trap, of course Li Huairen will not jump:

"Lord Wang, you are too worried, the lower officials just want to tell the prince that the consequences of doing so are just the consequences, and the public opinion cannot be done."

"Good!" Zhu Han laughed angrily:

"Since you want to judge according to the law of the Ming Dynasty, then the king wants to ask you officials who are responsible for the punishment."

"In my Great Ming Law, how is the judgment of intentional homicide?" Li Huairen could hear that Zhu Han had something to say.

It's just that I can't figure out what this prince wants to do:

"The murderer pays for his life, and after being reviewed by Dali Temple, he will be beheaded after the autumn to set an example." Zhu Han nodded coldly:

"Okay, it seems that Master Li hasn't forgotten the Great Ming Law."

"In this case, this king asks you again, if someone is committing a murder and is killed by someone, how should I judge it?" This time, Li Huairen's answer was also very fast:

"If your life is threatened, kill the perpetrator. According to my law, there is no sin! Many people think that the ancient laws were imperfect.

However, in the laws of the Ming Dynasty, there is really a clause similar to justifiable defense. Zhu Han once inadvertently saw a similar thing in the Ming Dynasty.

A drunk man accidentally discovers a corpse and reports it to the government. The government quickly found out the identity of this person, a gambler named Ma Zhende.

After multiple investigations, it was found that this gambler had gone to the house of a man named Wang Neng before his death.

Arrested quickly and investigated, Wang Neng first refused to admit it, and then was arrested and quickly found loopholes, and finally confided the truth after questioning.

It turned out that this Ma Zhen sneaked into Wang Neng's house last night to steal, and was killed by Wang Neng after being discovered. Because he was afraid of getting into trouble, he had to abandon his body in the wilderness.

After the local yamen interrogated, they felt that the matter was basically true, so they reported it to Dali Temple. However, Dali Temple found some inaccuracies in the dossier and rejected the case for retrial.

In the end, it was thoroughly investigated, and the truth was revealed. It turned out that Wang Neng was a gambler like Ma Zhen, and on the day of the eucalyptus, Ma Zhen drank wine and came to Wang Neng to collect gambling debts.

During the dispute between the two sides, Ma Zhenyi, who had drunk alcohol, accidentally fell and fainted. Seeing this, Wang Neng had a plan and deliberately created a situation where Ma Zhen came to steal.

The intention is to use legitimate self-defense to protect oneself from the law. Li Huairen understood Zhu Han's thoughts, and immediately retorted:

"Does the prince want to say that it was the money that threatened Miao Lifu's life, so he fought back?"

"But the prince, the money is only a few coins of silver with the wages owed to Miao Lifu, and there is no need to threaten his life at all."

"Miao Lifu killed people in the street, and it can't be regarded as self-defense in any case."

"Please think twice!"
