Chapter 767 Judgment
After Ji Xin's speech, Xu Xu announced the end of the trial. Afterwards, Xu Xu gave an hour-long explanation of the main points of the law. This explanation was made by the Law Society for several nights, and it was as easy as possible to understand.The facts of the case and the applicable legal provisions were explained. For the arbitral tribunal to use the modern judicial system to hear the case for the first time, it is very necessary to explain the case and the trial process.

Unexpectedly, everyone was not bored with the process of interpreting the law, but was very interested. After the trial process just now, many people wanted to know why Australians did this, and the permissible interpretation just met their needs. Require.Although most people understand half of what they heard, they have more or less a preliminary understanding of the modern judicial system.

After making all the explanations, the clerk announced that everyone stood up:

"The judgment is announced below!"

Li Ke stood up, picked up the gavel and hit it:
"Defendant is guilty of 'breaking military marriage'!"

Everyone in the auditorium sighed and commented.

"In the name of the Senate and the people: seven years' hard labor for the accused, and one year's supervision!" the license announced.

The so-called supervision means that after being released, they must wear special marks on their clothes so that they can be supervised at all times.Not only restricted in many ways, but also a very humiliating mark.

Suddenly, there was a lot of discussion in the auditorium-everyone was surprised that the sentence was so severe.Because in the judicial practice of the Ming Dynasty, there were very few sentences of imprisonment.Moreover, such a case involving adultery, as usual, is nothing more than hitting the adulterer with dozens of boards, and then hitting the police with dozens of boards in the name of "rectification".I didn't expect the Australians to convict such a serious crime for "breaking military marriage".

Everyone knows what the so-called "hard labor" in Australia means. It means that it has fallen into the hands of Fu Youdi. That ghost place is frightening in Lingao. Everyone suspects that this unlucky "adulter" has entered the labor camp. Is there any chance of coming back alive?

Fucking with a soldier's wife will end up like this, which makes everyone feel uncomfortable.Australians think differently.In the 17th century, the profession of soldiers was looked down upon by "scumbags" both at home and abroad. No one thought it was a big deal for a soldier's wife to be raped.

As the gavel of permission fell again, the first trial in accordance with the newly compiled procedure of the procedural law came to an end.All stand, and the judge is the first to leave.Then the crowd dispersed slowly under the guidance of the police.In the auditorium that was dispersing, two people did not move. They did not stand up until the crowd in the auditorium was basically gone, leaving only the stools on the floor.The leader was a middle-aged man dressed gracefully and luxuriously, and at first glance he was a man of Ming Dynasty.He was accompanied by a young man.The two walked slowly towards the door.From time to time, the young man moved the benches that were still left in the passage.

When he got to the door, several people in short coats greeted him immediately.Send them to the carriage that has been waiting for a long time.

Li Luoyou closed his eyes and took a short rest.Gu Baocheng opened the drink box in the carriage, took out a small thermos bottle, poured him a cup of tea, and handed it to him.

Li Luoyou took a sip, the tea was the best Fujian Wuyishan tea.After not coming for a few months, the Australians' enjoyment has become more and more refined--when he came in the past, there was only hot water supply, but the tea was just poor-quality rough tea.

The carriage shook slightly and started slowly.Mongolian horses are small in strength and not fast, but they walk without permission. The road at Lingao is smooth and the car walks very steadily.After drinking two cups of tea, Li Luoyou calmed down a little.Sitting on the back of the hard wood board for more than an hour is quite tiring, not to mention that the room is full of people, if it is not hot now and the ventilation is good, he may not be able to sit on it.

It was Gu Baocheng's suggestion to come to Dongmen City to watch the court trial--the case triggered by this peachy incident has become a hot spot in the streets and alleys of Lingao under the vigorous publicity of the Cultural and Propaganda Department, and naturally spread to Qionghai. High accommodation.Li Luoyou had a lot of interest in Lingao's justice last time. This time he heard that there was a case that would be tried publicly in accordance with the "Australian Song Law". He couldn't help being very interested. All relevant newspaper materials were collected and shown to him.

Li Luoyou shouldered the mission of rescuing He Rubin's remnants, and it has been more than ten days since he arrived in Lingao from Macau.Since the Senate needed to hold a meeting to discuss how to deal with the remnants of the Ming army trapped in Qiongshan, Li Luoyou could only wait boredly on the Qionghai - sometimes Liu San or some other veterans he knew would come to chat with him, but everyone Part of the time he can only spend time by reading Lingao newspapers and books collected by Gu Baocheng.

Gu Baocheng has been in Lingao for a while, and he already has a little understanding of the way Australians do things—they will express or imply a lot of things in newspapers, and reading "Lingao Times" and various books published locally is the best way to understand their thinking good window.

Li Luoyou was very interested in his nephew's opinion - of course, this is not a real insight, just like he regularly reads the copy from the mansion.Many movements of the court can also be seen in the mansion.

However, the content of "Lingao Times" is much wider, and the form is much more lively.Many of these forms were seen for the first time by him. For example, the case of sabotaging a military marriage, the newspaper not only reported the cause and effect of the case, but also gave a so-called "background introduction" to "Ausong Law", especially It is the concept and practice of "destroying military marriages", and there are long articles.Li Luoyou carefully read the articles in the newspaper, and soon realized that the Australians were going to implement the "Australian Song Law" in Lingao.He was shocked.

The implementation of new laws is an important feature of the new dynasty.The newspapers openly talked about the laws of the Song Dynasty in Australia, which is clearly preparing to set up a flag to separate one side.Li Luoyou fell silent for a while—it seems that this Qiongzhou mansion will soon no longer be owned by Daming!The strange thing is that he is very calm about this reality, and he is completely free from the anxiety and indignation he felt when he heard that Shenyang had fallen.At the very least, these people claimed to be descendants of the Chinese Miao people, and did not treat the common people like slaves and pigs, and did many practical things to benefit the common people of the place.The common people lived much better under the rule of the Ausong people than under the rule of the Jianlu—much better even than Ming, which was merciless to its people.Officials only know their own glory and wealth, and they don't care about the life and death of the people and the territory of the country.

Now, the officials who ruled the people of Ming Dynasty sent him here, nothing more than to reach an agreement that could cover up the situation that they had provoked the war rashly and suffered a disastrous defeat.Every time Li Luoyou thought of this, he felt desperate for the court.He had heard that the emperor was a hard-working man who hoped to rejuvenate the Ming Dynasty, but with such a group of people under him as officials, even the reborn Taizu might not be able to accomplish anything.

Seeing that he was very concerned about this case, Gu Baocheng proposed to attend the interrogation process.Li Luoyou has long been very interested in the Australian judicial system - when he visited Dongmen City last time, he found that the Australian judicial system and laws are similar to Europeans.But the stay was very short at that time, and I didn't have time to see a trial. Now that there is such an important case, this opportunity should not be missed anyway.

Li Luoyou wanted to watch the trial, of course it was a special case - he played a vital role in the next step of the Planning Institute's upcoming plan.Under the instructions of the general office, Vest immediately took two of the "reserved tickets" and handed them over to them.

The whole trial process made him feel both surprised and reasonable-he realized that his past thoughts were correct, the Australian legal system was deeply influenced by the European legal system, including the form of interrogation.However, they have innovated on the European system.For example, he had never heard of the "destruction of military marriage". He felt that even European laws would not have such a strange clause.

"The Australians are trying to buy the hearts of the soldiers. I'm afraid they will have a lot of plans in the future." Gu Baocheng whispered in the car.

"If he can't buy people's hearts, how can he wipe out He Zhen's entire army? Could it be because of the sharpness of the firearms?" Li Luoyou said, "If you talk about the sharpness of the firearms, why are the firearms of the Guanning Town Army and the Jingying? Sharp, still beaten by Jiannu so hard that he dared not step out of the city gate, hiding in the city and watching them kill and set fire!"

Gu Baocheng knew that what my uncle was talking about was about Jiannu entering the fortress—the news from the north was very bad. Jiannu killed dozens of state capitals, plundered countless property, and kidnapped more than [-] people.

In Gu Baocheng's view, apart from sharp weapons and buying people's hearts, Australians are better than the government in many other aspects.But he didn't dare to argue, he just echoed with him: "Uncle is right."

The carriage came to the door of Qionghai House. This shop occupies a large area, but the building does not occupy a large area, and the front of the house is not prominent--different from other businesses who try to make their fronts as spectacular as possible, the front of Qionghai House It has a very simple appearance, and the front door of the three-bay room, whether it is decoration or style, is the appearance of a traditional time-honored brand.

The Qionghai ship does some retail business on the facade, selling various local products on the mainland.This is not its main business—its main business is bulk trade, and the Qionghai ship brings in various bulk goods that Australians need from the mainland, especially Liaodong goods and imported goods, especially all kinds of leather goods.Horsehide, deerskin, sheepskin, these are the equipment materials urgently needed by the Lingao industrial system.In addition, various raw lacquer, tung oil, silk and other industrial raw materials that are abundant in Guangdong and other places are also sold here.
