Chapter 184: Strange Death Penalty

As soon as Mo Qing died, all the entourages were scattered.

There are also those who have fast legs, and they ran back to Jiaxing City to report to the city, and they ran into the soldiers patrolling the city.

As soon as I heard about the fate, did I pay it back? Rush to the scene as fast as possible.

It was not a few miles away, but when they arrived at the place, Huyan's mother and son were still arguing, and they were finally captured.

The local prefect of Jiaxing is a man surnamed Qian, and almost all of his political career has been transferred in Jiaxing, and he stayed up until the year before last when he was promoted to the prefect.

People who are in their fifties this year, their health is not very good, and they don't have much political ambitions, so they want to go home to retire after serving as the prefect in peace and stability.

Therefore, in the past few years, Mr. Qian has not fought in the party, and he has not stood in line, and has honestly done his part.

Occasionally, I will be greedy for two small coins and accept some bribes, but I never touch the things that really have big risks and big benefits.

Peace is a blessing, those who are in their fifties, and those who are in their sixties have to accumulate some blessings for their children and grandchildren.

On this day, the spring was bright, and Master Qian was in the backyard of the mansion, drinking a little wine while listening to the two singers in the mansion singing.

At this moment, a criminal magistrate hurriedly broke in, forgetting to report in advance, and shouted how far away.

"Lord Qian, something is wrong, someone has died in the south of the city-"

The voice of the pusher alarm Lord Qian, who was listening to the music, and the old man was so frightened that he turned his back on his back.

"What do you say? Where did the death happen? ”

"Lord Qian, there was a death in the south of the city just now, and the bodies of a large number of prisoners and the dead have been brought back to the mansion, just waiting for you to come over."

In fact, the magistrate has already asked the whole story and has a basic understanding of the whole matter.

It's just that the identity of the deceased is a bit special, so he doesn't dare to judge easily, so he has to bite the bullet and come to his top boss.

There's no way, human lives are at stake.

Master Qian didn't care about drinking or listening to music, so he hurriedly returned to the bedroom, changed his official uniform, and came to the lobby with the official.

This place in Jiaxing is a little special now.

Originally, these civil criminal cases were directly handed over to the local county government for trial, and ordinary people could also go to observe.

Generally, the government office does not need to be tried directly, but only comes to review the eucalyptus submitted by the county government, unless someone crosses the level and comes to the government to file a complaint.

And this Jiaxing City, according to the regulations, is under the management of Jiahe County, and the magistrate of Jiahe County took office a month ago.

After all, he also started from the grassroots level, Master Qian sat firmly in the lobby, the third class of officials stood on both sides, and the magistrate and a master sat on the left and right.

"Ascend to the court, take someone to commit a prisoner-"

There was not much time, and everyone who interfered was brought to the lobby.

More than half of the dozen or so followers ran, and only four of them didn't dare to run, they followed Mo Qing from "Lin'an" to Jiaxing.

The matchmaker, Hu Yanfeng, Hu Yande's mother and son, and Mo Qing's corpse were also carried up, covering their faces with a white cloth.

"Who is the plaintiff, tell me what's going on?" Mr. Qian spoke.

A well-spoken entourage, as it is, told the story of the incident.

He didn't add fuel and vinegar, maybe in his opinion, what their master did was a matter of course, so he didn't go to the article to cover up.

When Mr. Qian heard it, isn't this a typical robbery of people's daughters? just failed to rob him, but was beaten to death by someone's son.

In this era, this kind of thing is inconclusive.

If it is placed in the next life, it will either be found not guilty and considered justified defense, let alone a minor child; Or, at most, the defense is excessive.

However, in this era, those who dare to rob people's daughters are all people with backgrounds.

Even the Taizu of the Song Dynasty dealt with a case of robbing a people's daughter, and in the end, he was actually the one who wanted to rob the people's daughter, and bought the woman with money, which was regarded as a concubine.

"Kneeling Hu Yanfeng, is what the man said just now true?"

"Lord Qiyu, it's completely true, it's just that my son Hu Yande is ten years old, and he can't do anything. This matter started again because of the people's women, and the people's women are willing to bear it with all their might, and I beg the adults to be kind and let my son go. ”

"Mother, you can't confess. My lord, I killed people, and they have nothing to do with my mother, if you want to arrest me, don't arrest my mother. ”

Hu Yanfeng and Hu Yande, both of them were in the court, and they were scrambling to take on this crime.

Master Qian is not in the dark, he knows that even if he acquits these two people, he will also say it in the law.

At this moment, the master on the right hand side of Master Qian quietly stepped forward, came to Master Qian's side, and said in a low voice.

"Lord Qian, this case is easy to judge, but it is not easy to judge."

"This deceased Mo Qing is not an ordinary splash, he is from Lin'an, it seems that he is still the nephew of Lord Mo Ze, Lord Mo Ze is a person of 'Shi Xiang', you see ......"

The word "Shi Xiang" made Lord Qian almost out of breath, and being able to sit in his position can be regarded as the middle level of the Great Song Dynasty, and he knows the energy of this Shi Xiang.

"If both parties confess, let's sign and draw the charge in court, Huyan's mother and son will be temporarily imprisoned, and the government will report your confession to the Beijing Criminal Department, and wait for the final verdict."

In this way, Hu Yanfeng's mother and son were temporarily locked up.

Immediately send someone to send the file signed by both sides and the evidence to officially execute the criminal department.

Then, he wrote a letter in his own hand, sent it to Lin'an, and handed it over to Mo Ze.

Not only do you have to sell favors, but you also have to find someone to back your back.

This kind of thing, anyway, the old money head himself is unwilling to shoot this board.

In case the incident really happened one day, he still wanted to get out of the way.

There are so many documents in the Criminal Department every day, and this Jiaxing handed over this copy, and it was logical that he was detained.

Coincidentally, that Lord Mo Ze also went out of Beijing on an errand on the order of Shi Xiang.

This ordinary human life lawsuit was delayed for more than half a year.

It wasn't until Mo Ze returned to Lin'an more than a month ago that someone gave him the letter.

After reading the letter, Mo Ze was furious, his own nephew actually died half a year ago, and he was beaten to death, why didn't the Criminal Department deal with it?

Although he is Shi Xiang's right-hand man, he has no right to manage the Criminal Department.

took the letter and went to Shi Miyuan to cry, and even complained about the inaction of the Criminal Department, to bring the perpetrator to justice, and to comfort his dead nephew.

The crying child has milk to eat, not to mention that this Mo Ze really died nephew, so he is his cronies, and Shi Miyuan can't stand idly by.

wrote a note casually, handed it to Mo Ze, and asked him to go to the Criminal Department to personally supervise the matter.

When they saw Shi Miyuan's note, the elders of the Criminal Department were also confused.

Is there such a thing?

Hurriedly summoned people, cleaned up the file overnight, and finally found the behavior submitted by Jiaxing more than half a year ago.

I opened all the files in public, the drawings of the plaintiff and the defendant, and even found the murder weapon.

The human and physical evidence was complete, the prisoners themselves confessed, and there were historical articles, so the criminal department issued a verdict overnight.

The murderer Hu Yande was sentenced to death, and the accomplice Hu Yanfeng was imprisoned for three years.

Mo Ze finally let out a bad breath, although he didn't like this nephew himself, and he didn't like him dangling in front of his eyes, so he sent him to Jiaxing.

However, now that he has been beaten to death, it is also to avenge him.

Even, I want to even kill the one named Hu Yanfeng, this is the "culprit".

I don't know if it was negligence on the part of the Criminal Department or deliberate, but it just so happened that the time for this year's autumn decision had passed.

This sentenced Huyande to death, but did not indicate when it would be executed? Let's let the old man in Jiaxing have a headache.

"The Sword Comes"

Besides, Jiaxing, the old man Qian, sent the official document to the Criminal Department, and the letter to Lord Mo Ze was also sent, and he was waiting for the reply, so that he could tie the knot.

However, the left waited and the right waited did not come.

After spring, it is summer, and after summer, it is autumn.

Master Qian really waited for the flowers this time......

After more than half a year, I finally waited for the text of the Criminal Department.

He didn't dare to dislike Shangfeng's efficiency, so he waited for the verdict, didn't he?

ascended to the hall again, summoned a cadre and others, and also brought out Hu Yanfeng's mother and son, who had been in prison for more than half a year, from the cell.

The verdict of the Ministry of Punishment was announced on the spot, and then the verdict notice was posted at the gate of the city to warn the world.

"Lord Qian, it seems that there is something wrong with the palindrome of the Criminal Department, which does not specify the execution time of death row inmates?"

The responsible master kindly reminded.

"Really? Don't have time? It is estimated that the adults in the Criminal Department have made mistakes in their busyness, so they will wait in prison for two days if they don't have time. ”

Mr. Qian pretended to be casual, he understood very well in his heart, and wanted our old money to carry this pot? No way!

The magistrate of Jiahe County, isn't he at his post? Just turn the two around.

"Downtown Xiayin" is all blonde, and it was in the prison in Jiahe County that he met Hu Yanfeng's mother and son.

When the blonde saw the two, tears fell from her eyes.

Although no one bullied them in the prison, they stayed in prison for more than half a year, eating, drinking, and living......

Where is this the place where normal people should be?

"Cell boss, please go buy some wine and food, and this money will buy a bowl of wine for the brothers."

As he spoke, the blonde took out ten taels of silver from his bosom and stuffed it into the cell boss who brought him in.

"Oh, I can't help it, Quan Sixth Master, the little one is also a person who has received your great favor, I didn't know that this Huyan family mother and son were your friends before, you should have known earlier, and the little one should also change them to a clean place."

"Come on, this mother and son are felons on death row, put me in the innermost number."

It turned out that this cell boss, when he was young, was also mixed on the street, once gambling in a gambling house, he won a few handfuls with good luck, and people were targeted when he went out.

If he hadn't happened to meet the whole blonde, not only would he lose his money, but he might not have been able to save his own life.

Later, I found someone to find an errand in prison, and after all these years, I finally became a cell boss.

And the whole blonde has already become a well-known "noisy hero", and this cell boss still bragged to his colleagues from time to time that he was the brother of the sixth master in the "Seven Heroes of Jiangnan".

This time, Quan Blonde came to the prison to visit Huyan's mother and son, but he didn't expect to meet an acquaintance.

Familiar to cooked, the money that should be used still has to be used.

Someone has money again, and soon Hu Yanfeng's mother and son were replaced with a clean and spacious cell, which was twice as large as the original cell, and there was a window above the head, and there was sunlight to penetrate every day, in addition to dry straw, there were actually two simple bedding.

"Sixth Master, you talk first, I'll go and get you some food. In this acre and three points of land, brother, I still have a little power, if you have something to say, make sure that no one comes to disturb you. ”

The cell boss turned around and left, and there was only blonde hair left in the cell, and Hu Yanfeng's mother and son.

This sudden change also made Hu Yanfeng's mother and son stupid, and they didn't say a word, just stared at the whole blonde hair blankly.

It's been more than 30 years, and when they separated, Quan Blonde was only ten years old, and Hu Yanfeng was not yet six years old.

reunited again, but I didn't expect it to be this kind of scene.

"Feng'er, do you still know me?"

The blonde tried her best to control her emotions, but her voice was still a little trembling.

Hu Yanfeng looked at the whole blonde hair carefully and shook his head.

Where do you know this?

The ten-year-old child has now become an uncle in his early forties, who has bypassed the pig-killing knife of the years?

"Haha, I'm old, but Feng'er is still so beautiful. I'm all blonde, Feng'er really doesn't remember your 'whole brother'? ”

The whole blonde laughed dryly, but tears flowed down again.

"What? Are you a full brother? ”

Hearing this, Hu Yanfeng's eyes widened, and he carefully looked at the all-blonde face again.

Between the eyebrows and eyes, you can vaguely distinguish the appearance of the year.

"Full brotherβ€”"

Hu Yanfeng shouted, pounced, and hugged the whole blonde hair tightly.

Nervous, fearful, and helpless for most of the past six months......

It was as if at this moment, all of them were vented out, and they instantly turned into nothing, leaving only the whole blonde in his arms, crying and crying.

Hu Yande still stood there dumbfounded.

The six months of prison life seem to have made the child grow up a lot and understand a lot of things.

When Master Qian announced that he was sentenced to death above the lobby, his mother Hu Yanfeng cried to death, but Hu Yande did not shed a single tear.

Instead, he stood aside, comforting his mother, and kept wiping her tears.

After crying for a long time, Hu Yanfeng seemed to realize that his "gaffe" just now, and his face was slightly red.

"De'er, come here, I've seen your ......"

"Call Uncle." The blonde said softly.

"Yes, De'er, come and see your uncle."

I met in Weimo back then, so many years have passed, and Hu Yanfeng has not forgotten the half bowl of fish soup he drank that day, and the whole blonde hair received the other party's great grace.

Hu Yande hurriedly walked over and knelt on the ground upright.

"Boy Huyande, kowtow to your uncle."

He has never had any relatives, especially after living in prison for more than half a year, and suddenly seeing a friend of his mother's relatives, Hu Yande's heart was unusually happy, or comforted.

Because, what he thinks now is that even if he is killed, his mother will finally have relatives to take care of him in the future.

"Brother Quan, why did you come here? How have you spent all these years? You ......"

"Feng'er, I saw your name on the notice posted at the city gate, I didn't expect that you have been in Jiaxing all these years."

"I know all about you. Don't worry, I won't watch De'er go to death, and I will definitely find a way to save you. ”

"But murder pays for life, after all, De'er ......"

Hu Yanfeng felt that things would not be so simple, after all, his son killed someone.

In her mind, killing someone will definitely pay for her life, but she hopes to exchange her life for her son's life.

"Sixth Master, the wine and food you want are here."

At this time, the cell boss came in from outside, carrying a large food box in his hand.

"Thank you, brother."

"Look at what the sixth master said, you can call me 'brother', what kind of face is given to me, you use it slowly, I'll keep a little guard outside to prevent anyone who doesn't open his eyes from coming in and bumping into you."

The cell boss went out happily, and was called "brother" by the sixth master of the famous "Seven Heroes of Jiangnan", so he is also a member of the "chivalry"?

"Feng'er, you must believe me, no matter how big a thing you do, Brother Quan will definitely help you settle it!"

"The child has your surname 'Huyan'? Okay, this is also after the gate, how can I let the whole blonde let the door go behind, just give to death! ”

"Is this kid really only ten years old? It looks like the embryo of a good general, and after going out, even if I get out of this old face, I will definitely find him the best master and train him well. ”

The whole blonde greeted Hu Yanfeng's mother and son, sat on the ground, and opened the food box brought by the cell leader.

There was only a small jar of soju, but there were many dishes, a whole roast chicken, a large piece of Dongpo elbow, and a plate of large meatballs, a total of six dishes, and a small pot full of rice.

Hu Yande's eyes lit up when he saw the food, he hadn't been able to eat enough once in more than half a year, and he had such a large amount of food, and it was when he was growing his body.

"De'er, eat more, you have been your mother, how long has it been since you had a full meal?"

Seeing his son's appearance, Hu Yanfeng's distressed tears fell again.

"Feng'er, your affairs are a little tricky, mainly because the person was killed by De'er, his uncle is a big official in the court, and you may live here for a while."

"But don't worry, I'll get you out sooner or later, and I'll ask a noble man for help."

I ate a meal for an hour, and even Hu Yanfeng ate a lot.

In front of the all-blonde hair, she didn't have a trace of restraint at all, as if she had returned to the small ruined temple back then.

In this way, for a period of time after that, the "Downtown Heroes" were all blonde and dredged up a lot of relationships in Jiaxing City, but they were always helpless.

Fortunately, Hu Yanfeng and the others are only living in a cell now, and they are still taking care of the cell leader.

All blonde hair and willing to pay money, their mother and son eat and drink better than in previous years.

In the afternoon, the "Downtown Heroes" were all blonde and returned to the "Mandarin Duck Villa".

After going out for a few days this time, there is still no better way, it seems that at the level of Jiaxing, no one dares to change the verdict of the Criminal Department without permission.

Although Hu Yande has no worries about his life for the time being, he is not a long-term solution to live in a prison cell.

"Sixth Master, are you back? The Lord said, when you come back, I will let you go to him directly. ”

The porter stepped forward, took the all-blonde horse, thought about it, and couldn't help but say another word.

"Sixth Master, Young Master Mo came over early in the morning, and he should be at everyone's master now."

"What? Mer is here? Great, I'll get over it. ”

"Downtown Xia Yin" is all blonde, and when he heard the porter say that Guo Mo had arrived, he suddenly felt that a cloud had dispersed.

didn't care about talking to the porter anymore, but in his own yard, he carried the light body exercises, and disappeared as soon as the smoke was gone.

"Good girl, is the sixth master's light skill so powerful?"

Leave the porter alone and doubt his eyes in the wind......
