Zhenguan Chang'an Xiaofangzheng

Chapter 490

The soft, slightly cold spring breeze, mixed with rain as thin as a cow's hair, falls on the long-dry land.

The farmer, who had been drenched for a while, had no time to pay attention to the heavy rain. It fell for more than an hour, and the land was not even wet.

It feels like you go to someone's house to beg for a drink of saliva, and they piss you off.

A proper humiliation.

Natural disasters are inevitable, but fortunately, the prefectural and county governments took care of the common people and ordered hundreds of overturned carts from the court to pump water.

What's terrible is that the mules and horses of twenty or thirty households were stolen, and the farmers almost collapsed and committed suicide.

The life of the state judge was squatting in the countryside, and finally caught the damn thief!
The envoy even declared openly that all thieves and thieves will be arrested, and the loss of mules and horses will also be recovered.

At this moment, the officials of the prefectural and county yamen, who usually speak rough and colorful, have a higher image among the common people, and even the stubborn men have become closer to them.

Farm work was going on outside the city, but inside the city it was bustling.

The city of Zheng County is so big, hundreds of people suddenly poured in, more than a dozen of them rode in chariots, followed by hundreds of oxen and horses, the streets were a bit crowded for a while.

There are still some idlers in the city, calling friends one after another to come out to watch the excitement, which is even more crowded.

"Look, there is a bound young man in front of every carriage."

In fact, it is not accurate, there is no one who is tied up before taking Yandi's chariot.

"Even if you're bound, even if you have whip marks on your body, the worst thing you can wear is raw silk. We can't compare it!"

"Whoever has a good brain, figure out why they appear here. If you figure it out, I'll buy a pot of green ant wine!"

The ancient blind man who was a fortune-teller smiled and said: "The surname of this jug of wine is ancient. The place where they went was the state government office. The most recent big case in the state government office was the theft of mules and horses. The judiciary joined the army at a hundred years old and led his people to arrest him."

"Of course, there are still some criminals and accomplices who escaped, but it's not that Facao didn't work hard."

"I heard that when someone in the court hindered him, he made such a trivial trick that it made people commit offenses. He was actually the heir of an official in the court!"

The one who asked for the wine turned around and took a pot of green ant wine and handed it to the blind man Gu: "Master Gu, explain in detail."

In the later generations, everyone in the work unit was referred to as "teacher", which already existed in the Tang Dynasty, but it was not common.

Gu Blind took a sip and smacked his lips in satisfaction: "But the rest of the party are all heirs of court officials, and none of them are easy to deal with. No matter how powerful the envoy is, he can't bring Judiciary to join the army to arrest people in Chang'an City, can he?"

"The envoy was furious, and presented to the court, strongly demanding that all the thieves be arrested, so as to set the court order. The emperor is sage, and he can't see the suffering of the common people, so he ordered all the families to surrender and pay compensation. Wow, what a charming figure!"

True and false, false and true, it is a good story that the common people love to hear.

If it is completely correct, does he still need to rely on divination?
The idlers laughed loudly: "Ancient blind man, so you are not blind!"

The ancient blind man sighed: "Life is difficult, only food, wine, and beauties can keep me from being blind."

In fact, most people in this profession are only half-blind, not completely blind.
-
In the second hall, Fan Zhengzheng told Ben Yang and Chen Xujun to work hard, the salt workshop can be slow, but there should be no mistakes or omissions.

After all, it is table salt, so don't be careless. Don't let someone else buy pickled salt, and the pickled ham turns blue.

(A real case of selling large bags of salt in a supply and marketing agency in a certain place in the early years.)
Tang Yidian, wearing an official uniform, crossed the courtyard and entered the second hall, looking a little flustered.

"Your envoy, more than a dozen wives from abroad, brought more than a hundred Fanghe and Jian slaves, drove more than a hundred mules and horses, and escorted more than ten offenders, and came from Chang'an City!"

Isn't that great?
It's just that Tang Yidian couldn't control the scene, after all, any one of them was a married woman, and his status was no lower than Tang Yidian's.

Fan Zheng nodded, led the people out of the second hall, and entered the yamen.

Appearing in a striking purple robe, the noisy Yayuan became quiet for a while.

"Shijun, the dog committed crimes ignorantly, and my family is willing to pay for the mules and horses that were killed. I only hope that you can judge the case impartially. The dog is just an accomplice!"

"My lord, my wife said it, but to be fair, even death is fine."

The ten foreign wives spoke at the same time, and the sound shook the sky, causing Fan Zheng to have a headache.

Like Zhou Xingchi's version of Tang Bohu and married nine wives?

Go reincarnate early!

Fan Zheng raised one hand, lowered it slightly, and fell silent instantly.

Fan Zheng extended his palm to the first woman on the left, motioning for her to speak.

"I am the wife of Liu Shi, Minister of the Ministry of War..."

Fan Zheng nodded: "Your Majesty, it's okay to say."

"The concubine violated the laws of the country. Although my husband is an official of the imperial court, he would never dare to show favoritism. Liu Fengshao killed the cattle and horses. My husband doesn't know how many, so I have the right to buy ten cattle and farm horses to make amends to the elders of Huazhou."

"Liu Feng has less crimes. We should ask Huazhou to deal with it fairly and redeem the copper. It is best to spend a few years in Huazhou in order to make him rein in the precipice and change his mind."

Fan Zheng nodded, Liu Shi's first wife spoke in a very orderly manner, she should be compensated, punished, and punished, but the word "justice" reminded Fan Zheng vaguely that she should not lose her sense of proportion because of the unhappiness with Liu Shi in the past.

"Your Majesty, please be at ease. The sentence is clearly based on the "Law of Zhenguan". If there is any error, the Junjun can directly denounce it."

"According to the law, if you steal and kill cattle and horses, you will be sentenced to two and a half years in prison; if the stolen goods are heavy, you will be fined. Fortunately, it was found that no one was hurt, and the hanging was avoided."

When Fan Zheng spoke of the hanging, the stubborn prisoners seemed to have their spines taken away, and they didn't dare to breathe.

Fan Zheng glanced at Li Shouyin, who was in a state of panic, and said slowly, "The thieves will add more crimes."

At the age of [-], he took the judicial assistant and judicial history, and collected the farm horses and cattle compensated by Liufeng Shao's family. After the disposal was completed, he and Sihu joined the army and Fenghu distributed the lost livestock to the farmer's family.

Ascension.

Fan Zheng sits on the public case and presides over the case at the age of a hundred. The jailer brought out Liu Fengshao who was covered in rancid smell, hair like weeds, and old linen clothes.

Liu Xun's Jun Junfa's wife was in the porch, quietly listening to Nianbai read out Liu Fengshao's previous confession, and after the review was correct, the verdict was passed.

The standard of measurement is [-] bolts of silk plus the sentence.

One cow and horse is equivalent to six pieces of silk, and eight mules and horses are enough for fifty pieces of silk. Their group has exceeded ten.

It was mentioned in the last chapter: those who co-steal, and steal.

Liu Feng should have been sentenced to four years as an apprentice, but considering his meritorious service in exposing him, the sentence was reduced to three years, and he redeemed sixty catties of copper.

Except for Li Shouyin who was imprisoned for four years and redeemed [-] catties of copper, everyone else was sentenced according to Liu Fengshao.

Although it is said that apprentices usually last for one year, one and a half years, two years, two and a half years, and three years, Fan Zheng is determined to rectify them, and it is nothing more than separate judgments.

Travel five hundred miles, and then your family is easy to find people, and you will go back to Chang'an City with pride in less than half a year?

Don't even think about it!

Li Shouyin didn't even struggle, like a walking dead.

Although he didn't come up with the idea of ​​stealing mules and horses for fun, but guiding this group of wicked people to harm Huazhou is something that can't be pushed away.

The director of Jingyuan last time, he was almost on the verge of falling, but Li Keshi's arrow sealed his mouth.

There won't be someone wiping his ass forever.
