Chapter 957: The Emperor's Imperial Trial (I)
The people in the city who appeared in front of the Taishou Mansion in Hangzhou today can be regarded as an eye-opener and a great insight.
First of all, the drum of grievances in front of the Taishou Mansion, which had never been sounded, was actually beaten by a group of people, and then someone really entered the yamen to complain. ap.
The results of these people were already doomed in everyone's opinion, so I was not too surprised when I saw the officials drag them out and beat them in public.
didn't expect that there would be another variable at this time, and someone actually came forward to stop the torture, and regardless of the prestige of the yamen, he directly led people to break into the Taishou Mansion.
This is a more astonishing move than beating the drum of injustice, and it is a bold move that the Xie family and the Qian family and other nine wealthy families in Jiangnan have never done when they were in power.
Such an act is enough to sensationalize, and it has already attracted more people to run to the Taishou Mansion, just to see the lively results, everyone wants to see what will happen to these guys who dare to go straight to the yamen.
And not long after, an even more surprising scene happened, if it wasn't for the fact that this was announced by the officials of the Taishou Mansion, no one would have believed that this would be true. Because what the other party announced was that the people from outside the world were allowed to enter the Taishou Mansion for trial.
In other words, Lord Taishou was really going to have a public trial in front of the people of the city, about beating the drums and complaining about grievances.
This is really a wonder that has not been encountered once in a hundred!
Feeling this, after confirming that this matter was correct, at that moment, thousands of people gathered in front of the Taishou Mansion were full of interest and rushed into the yamen, for fear that they would not be able to listen to this once-in-a-century interrogation in person if they were one step late.
And when these people kept pouring into the yamen and came to the lobby, they didn't need to listen to any interrogation movements, but as soon as they saw the pattern of people sitting, standing, and kneeling in the hall, they were shocked again, and they couldn't believe it in their hearts.
Because in the lobby in front of him, the one who sat at the top and should be the chief judge was not the Taishou Lord as everyone thought, but the man in Chinese clothes who had just brought a group of servants to save a few wrongdoers.
As for Chu Taishou, who should have sat in the position of chief judge, he could only stand at this time, and he looked no different from other scribes and servants.
This inverted dignity and humility status made the vast majority of the people a little unable to turn around, and looked inside in a daze, not knowing what to think.
Only a very small number of people with sharp minds suddenly thought of something, but the look of surprise on their faces was even worse, and they couldn't help but peek at the chief judge above, guessing whether the other party would be the most noble person they thought.
Sun Ning naturally didn't think too much about what the people thought about the accident at this time, but just slapped the startled wood hard, and shouted, "Bring all the relevant people up!"
The public trial is scheduled, and the location of this interrogation and interrogation will naturally change from the second hall just now to the lobby. In this way, the plaintiff and the defendant, who were all in place, were naturally arranged outside the court.
It wasn't until Sun Ning spoke that the servants were a little nervous and brought the people from both sides into the hall together, and then the two sides who knew his identity knelt on the ground almost at the same time, and kowtowed: "The grass people and others knock to see His Majesty the Emperor......
As soon as the words came out, there was an exclamation outside, and all the people couldn't control their emotions, screaming again and again, and some even knelt down with their knees weak.
His Majesty the Emperor, that is really like a fairy, a towering figure, they never thought that with their humble status, they would be lucky enough to see the Emperor at such a close distance.
Some people burst into tears because of excitement, some people kowtowed more than once because of excitement, and some people were stunned on the spot because of excitement, and there was no reaction at all.
Until Sun Ning, who was at the top, suddenly took the case again and shouted: "Above the court, all are quiet!" Everyone is just a little excited, and they have come back to their senses a little.
However, no one dared to stand there, and they all knelt down.
The fact that His Majesty the Emperor personally tried the case was already much more astonishing than the case itself.
Sun Ning exhaled lightly, and then softened his tone a little and said, "Everyone should be flat. Today, I just want to make a clear judgment of this unjust case, so that the people of Hangzhou can understand
Harrison naturally could not understand the cruelty of the political world, let alone the corruption and disgusting of the political family.
Brooklyn didn't bother to explain it to him.
He revisited the door of the chief surgeon's office upstairs and knocked on it.
Dr. Marcus Andrews happened to be inside.
Marcus Andrews was a black man who grew up in a very much federal style, came from a traditionally black family, and worked his way out of the slums to become a respected surgeon on the back of his own, even sitting in the position of chief of surgery for the second time.
Marcus Andrews is an ambitious doctor.
Brooklyn came to a conclusion while shaking hands with an enthusiastic Marcus Andrews.
The real world does not classify itself, medical care is limited to medical treatment, justice is limited to justice, and the real world is intersecting and influencing each other.
Brooklyn is not a big name in the medical world, and even he is a complete layman, but that doesn't mean he has no influence on the medical community.
As a result, Brooklyn's conversation with Dr. Marcus Andrews was very relaxed.
But Dr. Marcus Andrews' ambitions have a limit.
Brooklyn offered to work with Bellevue Public Hospital to find a medical team to help with the birth, but Marcus Andrews did not immediately agree, but asked about the situation.
Brooklyn thought for a moment, picking out what could be said and describing things in general.
He admits that it could be dangerous.
The news of the military's assassination of Chandler Kane was so loud that Chandler Kane himself was in their hospital, so Marcus Andrews thought of it the moment Brooklyn finished speaking.
He was a little surprised, then a little frightened.
They have seen the parties involved in the news before - Dr. Andrew was also one of the doctors who carried out Chandler Kane's rescue surgery - but at the end of the day, both sides are engaged in a war of words.
[The app that has been running stably for many years is comparable to the old version of the book-chasing artifact, which is used by old bookworms.]
The law of the imperial court. I won't pay attention to other red tape today, so get up!"
The emperor's words fell into everyone's ears, and the people were naturally excited again. It's just that in this response, it is obvious that there is too much lag, and everyone is frozen there, not knowing what to do.
Fortunately, at this moment, another person stepped forward and shouted solemnly, "Your Majesty has already made a will, but you still don't obey it?" Is this a rebellion?"
Only then did the people wake up from a dream, kowtow and thank you, and then trembling up, supporting each other and stabilizing their figures. Then, everyone looked at the Emperor with reverence and surprise, wondering what was going on.
What kind of important case can be tried by His Majesty the Emperor in person.
Sun Ning no longer paid attention to the reactions of the people who were hearing the trial outside, and his eyes fell on the people kneeling in the hall: "You plaintiffs, if you have any grievances, let's come together one by one now."
With the first two "rehearsals", this time Qi Laosi and the others are much more stable, and now they once again tell them about the injustices and grievances they have encountered.
In the end, he said with indignation: "Your Majesty the Emperor, they colluded with officials and businessmen to bully and dominate the market, and forced them to buy and sell, but they have left me and other small businessmen with no way to live. It's not that the grass people are stubborn and want to make trouble, and they are really desperate, so they have to beat the drum and cry out for grievances!" As he spoke, there was another thumping and prostration.
Sun Ning listened to their stories expressionlessly, glanced at the people with different expressions outside the hall, and finally turned his gaze to Ji Du and the others who were also kneeling and bowing their heads: "Defendants, do you have anything to say about this accusation?"
The three of them slowly raised their heads, and then Ji Du spoke on their behalf: "Back to Your Majesty, what they told is clearly slander and bite, and blood spews people!"
"Oh? You say they're wronging you?"
"Exactly, Your Majesty, these six people have never been merchants of silk shops, but just a few street scoundrels and idlers, who have settled down. This must be someone who paid them to bribe them and let them go to the yamen to make trouble, and falsely accuse us and other good people and businessmen!"
Ji Du said, plucking up his courage, straightening his body, and pointing to Qi Lao Si not far away: "If Your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can let someone come forward to identify it." These six people are also a little famous on the streets of Hangzhou, and the people around them must be able to recognize them!"
And as soon as he testified, several exclamations quickly sounded among the thousands of people who were hearing the trial: "It's him, Lou Jiu!"
