Chapter 207: Evil is full of pervasiveness
Having said that, He Ran knew that even if there were clear provisions in the law, it would still be very difficult to enforce them.
Even in her time, domestic violence was still a serious social problem.
And those wives who have been victims of domestic violence, even if some of them report the case, they are often unable to file a case because of insufficient evidence.
Even if there is evidence, as long as there is no death, the punishment of the perpetrator is not severe, and it cannot offset the inflicted harm on the victim and the mental injury.
But He Ran still hopes that the arrival of her little butterfly can make a little change in this male-inferior society within her ability.
When she returned to the office, she began to make changes to the original criminal law, and for the next few days, He Ran was immersed in the work of revising the law.
Pear reported to her the aftermath of the incident.
It turned out that the seven treasures of the Zhou family were originally from Zhoujiabao, and if the Zhou family hadn't divided the Zhou Chi branch back then, they could really barely be regarded as relatives of the emperor.
Zhou Wu, the grandfather of the Zhou family's Qibao, came to Jinyang as early as fifty or sixty years ago, and he still had some money in his hand at that time, so he bought a shop and bought a house.
Zhou Wu had three sons, and he was a famous bear child when he was in Zhoujiabao, and at that time there was a clan in charge, and they didn't dare to make a mistake.
When they arrived in Jinyang, without the constraints of the clan, these three sons became wild horses, and after Zhou Wu's death, they were even more lawless.
These three are the fathers of the Zhou family's Qibao, and the Zhou's Qibao is cousins.
This week, Qibao and their father, over the years, have been a tyrant in the southwest corner, they also have a group of bastards, bullying men and women to collect protection money, when the king of Jin was still there, there were also people who reported to the official, but they said that they were surnamed Zhou, and the people in the yamen began to make peace with the mud, and finally it was gone.
He Ran thought of Zhoujiabao, the Zhou family in Zhoujiabao didn't even have an official, and they were not as good as ordinary people over the years, but they also climbed to the thousands of households in Fan County as a backer, and the things that the seventeenth master did, just one thing was enough for him to drink a pot, but it wasn't until he and his daughter-in-law were tied into the ancestral hall and his own son was humiliated and left alone, that he could finally be convicted.
It can be seen that although the Zhou family of Zhoujiabao has long been isolated from the royal family, they still enjoy privileges to a certain extent in the eyes of the people and even the magistrates.
This reminded He Ran of the Eight Banners of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, even if the family property was so poor that it clanged, even if the emperor didn't know who he was, but when he arrived in the yamen, he could still be arrogant and commanding.
The seven treasures of the Zhou family said that they were relatives of the emperor and the country, He Ran didn't believe that the King of Jin would not know, and the King of Jin didn't care, or he didn't care about it, but He Ran didn't want to get used to them.
She said to Xiaoli: "Tell Zhong Yi that the matter of the Zhou family's Qibao must be strictly investigated." ”
She thought about it for a while, and then said to Xiao Li: "Tell His Royal Highness King Zhao about this matter as well." ”
What Zhongyi's reaction was, Xiao Li couldn't tell, because this person's expression was expressionless.
But King Xiaozhao's reaction was all written on his face.
King Xiao Zhao was anxious when he heard this, what is this surnamed Zhou, isn't it making trouble for him?
Those who are indiscriminate, he doesn't recognize them as relatives!
He also wanted to live in peace.
"Little pear girl, you tell your sister that you must severely punish these villains in the township, and you must not be soft, even if they are from the Zhou family, you will never tolerate them."
He Ran was satisfied with King Xiaozhao's answer.
As for the handling of Zhongyi's side, He Ran didn't care.
He Ran just knew that it was right to hand over this kind of matter involving the emperor's relatives to Jinyiwei, but she didn't know that Zhongyi's reaction to this matter was beyond her imagination.
Zhong Yi was very angry, and he actually checked for 30 years, found out all the evil things that the Zhou family had done over the years, and found a large number of witnesses.
Zhou Dabao's wife was not bought, but forcibly occupied.
The woman's husband is also an old resident in the southwest corner, the family opened a small shop, and later married a daughter-in-law, the new daughter-in-law just passed the door, was targeted by Zhou Dabao, they beat the man half to death, forced people to sell the shop for one or two silver, originally wanted to buy the daughter-in-law with one or two silver, but the man did not sell, Zhou Dabao pretended to let them go, but tied the man's wife, in front of the man, he wanted to strengthen the poor old woman.
When the son was helpless, he had to agree to sell his wife
This is the reason why Chow Tai Po claimed that his wife was bought.
The woman and Zhou Dabao did not officially marry, after she was brought to the Zhou family, it didn't take long for Zhou Dabao's freshness to pass, and the woman became a common plaything for the men of the Zhou family.
Everyone in the southwest corner knew about this incident, and the woman tried to run several times, but she was caught by the Zhou family, and she would be beaten half to death every time.
Zhong Yi investigated to the end, and found more than a dozen lives, only there were witnesses, there were as many as fifteen, and the Zhou family had killed at least fifteen people, not to mention those who had no physical evidence.
A few days later, the ten members of the Zhou family, the seven treasures of the Zhou family, and their respective fathers, were all sentenced to be beheaded.
The execution ground was set up in a vacant lot at the corner of the southwest corner of the street, and he was willing to personally supervise the beheading.
In addition, Zhong Yi also asked people to post a notice that in the future, if there are any people from the Zhou clan who pretend to be the emperor, they will all be killed.
With the same notice, Zhongyi also sent Jinyi Wei to Pingyang, posted a copy to Zhoujiabao, and asked the patriarch and clan elders of the Zhou clan to read it to the clansmen in person.
When he heard that he was willing to post the notice to Zhoujiabao, He Ran was stunned for a moment.
She didn't even think of posting this kind of notice to Zhoujiabao, but she actually thought of it?
This kind of affection seems a little weird.
However, He Ran didn't delve into the oddities of her favor, and she received two letters.
A letter is the news that the Jinling Jinghong Tower was burned down;
There is also a letter sent by Xiaokui, Xiaokui told her in the letter that Xiu Gu, who had not been in touch for many years, suddenly wrote to her, and Xiu Gu asked her to beware of He Ran in the letter, because He Ran is a liar, and Xiu Gu also told Xiao Kui that He Jinghong would never accept apprentices, so the fact that He Ran is He Jinghong's apprentice is nonsense.
After reading these two letters, He Ran didn't say anything for a long time.
It is very clear in the letter that the Jinling Jinghong Building was burned down by order of Min Lan, and when it was burned, there was a cry outside the Jinghong Building, and the reputation of Min Lan and the little emperor quickly fell to the bottom because of this incident.
He Ran's face sank like water, and the Jinling Jinghong Tower was designed by her painstaking efforts, and it was her most satisfactory work.
Min Lan, that wicked woman, actually burned down her building.
But Xiaokui's letter made her cry and laugh.
Xiugu, it's still so extreme.
Back then, the relationship between Xiugu and Li Jinxiu was very poor, she mediated twice, and then she didn't bother to care.
Later, when she disappeared, Xiugu went south and never got along with Li Jinxiu and them.
