Chapter 63 Trial of the Three Divisions (Thanks to Yin Bai's 2 monthly tickets)(1/2)

Such a shocking case of a very popular refugee case, in addition to Ruo Ao Zike who was defeated by the Si and Chen Huang who was the court, there were naturally three officials of the Sansi who accompanied the hall, Sima, Situ and Siko, who held the Sansi trial together. Each of the phoenix patterns on their court robes represented their status as a good person.

The three departments shall conduct trials, that is, any major cases shall be tried by the competent criminal prison, the supervisory authority, and the judicial authority.

This is a message, called: Chen Xu.

Now it has passed, but the rivet and red painted gate of the Zhengzhou Prison Office has not opened for a long time. When the sun is at its peak, the gate of the Zhengzhou Prison Office has finally opened loudly, and the civilians and poor soldiers on the East Street rushed forward.

"It's open, it's open, the gate of the Criminal Prison Department is open!"

"Chen Tingli is about to start attending the church. It seems that he has not been stopped today!"

Even Cheng Qingqing on the second floor of the teahouse opposite, heard the sound and rushed to the window and looked at the Xingjuesi. But what she saw was Chen Huang respectfully sending Situ Nan out, "Situ Duwei, the grand girl has forgiven you for your crime of collision and ordered me to release you in court!"

"Then thank you for being magnanimous!"

Situ Nan had a long-standing expression on his face, but he still bowed his hands and thanked him.

The people from the Five City Military Command had been waiting at the door of the Criminal Prison Division. Several young commanders respectfully carried clean clothes and clear water, sprinkled them on him with willow leaves dipped in clear water, to remove the bad luck caused by the prison disaster for him. "Sir, you are really out! Ruo Ao Duke is indeed a clever plan. He said that you can be released today and you can indeed release it."

"Hmph, let's go, find a seat, and we wait for Lord Duwei to come out!"

Situ Nan nodded, turned around and looked deeply at Chen Huang standing at the gate and the untouchables around him. In particular, his eyes were fixed on Lao Wan. His eyes were too long and he sneered: Chen Huang, and these untouchables, he would not let them go, and he dared to give him such a great humiliation!

"Yes, sir, we have already booked a private room in the teahouse opposite." A commander flattered him and invited him to the teahouse opposite to take a seat.

Zhou Jinghua stood in front of the window, looked down at the scene and curled her lips and smiled, "It seems that there is nothing good about this case today. Xiao Jiang, let's go back!"

"Yes, Miss!"

Xiao Jiang turned around and followed Zhou Jinghua downstairs.

Qiao Yun said anxiously when he saw this, "Miss, my son-in-law won't really let Situ Nan go, then it will be difficult to catch him!"

"I don't believe Chen Huang would let Situ Nan go like this."

Cheng Qingqing said firmly that these days, Chen Huang has been busy preparing this case day and night, and wants to avenge the people, and he will never give up easily.

At this time, the people saw Situ Nan leaving with a sensation and sighed, "As a matter of fact, even the Grand Lady and Chen Tingli had no choice but to take him and the Captain Ruoao who was leaning against him behind him!"

Xiao Si, who was holding Lao Wan with a lame leg, frowned and said, "Shopkeeper, it seems that this is the only thing that happened in this case..."

"No, the girl promised us that she would definitely give Aunt Liu a fairness." Lao Wan shook her head and said.

The old man sighed, "This case is difficult. Today, the three officials will still be tried. Lord Sima will definitely favor the parents and children. The son of Situ, Situ Duwei, has just been released. Old Siko is a person who has been in charge of all year round... The third prince Ruoao is still the judge. How can I win this lawsuit?"

Lao Wan still didn't believe it, and his eyes firmly passed through the crowd. As everyone looked into the prison guards, the prison guards opened wide, they saw fifty mighty yamen runners holding water and fire sticks standing on both sides, with a solemn expression.

A loud shout: "Magnificent!"

The people who were whispering all shouted back when they heard the sound.

He and the old man, Xiaosi, Xiaowu, Xiaoliu, also retreated with the crowd.

The entire court was solemn and strict at this time. All the people standing outside the gate quietly stretched their necks and turned their eyes to Ruo Ao Zike who was sitting high in the court.

A thin beam of sunlight shone into the dark palace through the eaves. Chen Huang looked solemn, and brought a few staff members and yamen to the nearly 10,000 missing people who had been registered in the past few days and nights, and stepped into the court with the four big words "Mingde and Punishment" hanging high.

There were two seats in the middle of the high hall. Ruo Ao Zike was wearing a defeated three-tailed phoenix robe sitting high above the official seat in the hall. Chen Huang stood under the hall wearing a tingli and bowed to him and San Si who was sitting on the top and the jury on the side, and then sat in the escort seat.

Although it was Chen Huang who was in charge of the prison.

But it was Ruo Ao Zike who was in charge of the judiciary.

The three departments have the right to jointly decide on prisons and cases, so this case will not be heard by only one person.

Chen Huang picked up the top volume and unfolded it. This was all the results of the interrogation and the records of his confession in these days, and said loudly: "Si defeated Lord. One month ago, on the tenth of July, Lord Cheng Youtu reported that twenty-one traffickers were arrested outside Yingdu City. After the interrogation, all the confessions were found. They traded in an unmanned farm outside the city. After the flood in Chu State this year, they forced 1,200 homeless refugees to be slaves, hoping to sell others to make huge profits.

On the third day of the eighth month, Xian Gao, a merchant from Zheng State, came to surrender with his two sisters, Xian Yu and Xian Qing. He believed that the refugee sold a case was committed by the Xian family business under their subordinates, and all the human traffickers were their subordinates. He also admitted that their Yaxing had sold more than 50,000 people from Chu who were homeless after selling a lot of floods for others. At the same time, he claimed that someone chased him on the night of the eighth month. More than 300 servants were silenced overnight. His younger brother, Xian Qiheng, died that night.

All the coroners (coroners from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period) have been checked and tested, and the body is confirmed to be correct, and confirmed that they are all caused by knife wounds and killings.

At the same time, there have been 10,120 missing refugees who have come to register for the flood these days, and all of them have been compiled into a book here."

Chen Huang ordered the eight-foot-long refugee book in his hand to show the three departments inside and outside the court and the jury. The originally quiet prison department suddenly sounded inside and outside the prison department.

Although everyone knew that the Zheng merchants forced the abduct of 50,000 refugees, they had all been killed and silenced.

"Killed so many people?!"

"It's really hard tolerate!"

"This Xian Family Trading Company is not a good thing. It sells 50,000 yuan in our Chu State!"

"Kill them and return our loved ones!"

"Yes, kill them!"

...

For a moment, there were resentment sounds inside and outside the court, and some people even threw the vegetables carried in the basket or the mud picked up everywhere on Xian Gao's heads. Xian Yu kept dodging and curled her lips to defend herself, "Brother, it's obviously not the refugee we sold, but you, Xian Qi..."

Xian Gao frowned and looked at her disapprovingly and said, "Yu'er!"

Xian Qing snorted coldly and lowered his head and said, "Is it useful to defend yourself now? Let's talk to Sansi in the hall!"

There was a clamor inside and outside the court.

As the representative of today's jury, Situ sat on one side and coughed heavily. Ruo Ziliang frowned unhappily, while the old man, Siko, half-squinted his eyes, as if he had fallen asleep.

Ruoao Zike saw Ruoao Ziliang looking at him unhappily, and casually flipped the file's big hand, holding the gavel of Huanghuali, and slapped it hard, "Silent! This is a court that cannot be noisy, otherwise those who violate it will drag it out and hit the forty boards!"

"mighty!"

The water and fire sticks in the hands of the yamen on both sides hit the ground, as if they were hitting people. Suddenly, the noisy people inside and outside the Criminal Prison Division were extremely gentle, and some timid commoners even shrank into the crowd and hid.

Ruoao Zike looked at the three Xian brothers and sisters kneeling in the hall and twenty-one human traffickers, then cleared his throat and asked, "Are you three the three Xian brothers and sisters of Zheng Guo mentioned just now?"

“That’s right, the grass-roots are tall.”

"Caomin, string jade."

"The grass is a man, the string is green."

Xian Gaoxian Yuxianqing, who was wearing prison uniform, knelt down at the same time and replied: "Keep to the Lord!"

Ruo Ao Zike changed his previous joke and sat upright and began to interrogate: "When and when did you start to force the refugees in our Chu State and who did you sell them to after they captured them? The benefits you have gained from them are now here."

Xian Gao's calm and gentle male voice replied slowly, "In the fifteenth year of King Mu of Chu, my fifth sister Xian Qing and my seventh brother Xian Qi took fifty Zheng slaves to leave Zheng State and came to Chu State and began to engage in the business of teeth.

At that time, the Chu State was flooding every year and the people were displaced. So my seventh brother saw huge profits and took advantage of the flood of Chu State to capture more than 10,000 homeless refugees for free. Some of them had nowhere to go and followed them voluntarily, while some of them were captured.

Later, a great customer learned about this news and bought this batch of refugees from my seventh brother, and asked my seventh brother to be responsible for him to ban these homeless refugees after the flood war.

Our company has a rule: only ask about money, not people, and not where to go.

So we just sent the captured refugees to the designated unmanned farm outside the city on schedule. Over the past five years, we have sold a total of 54,861 people.

In July this year, the western suburbs of Chu State were talking about martial arts. We heard that the Chu nobles offered 50,000 slaves to the King of Chu. At that time, they thought this number was really coincidental, but they did not investigate it in depth. After all, we were just merchants who did not ask what the other party used to acquire slaves.

Then the other party heard news, but suddenly stopped the acquisition of refugees. We had nowhere to go, so we moved them all to the foot of a small hill near the eastern suburbs and let them fend for themselves.

Soon, on the first day of August, my seventh brother and his 300 subordinate servants were killed overnight.

When we came back from doing business abroad, we found that the whole family was slaughtered, so we surrendered to avoid the disaster of killing.

If the adults ask the villain, where are the 50,000 refugees now? As far as we know, I must have followed the prince-consort to the battlefield."

"Sure enough, our relatives were sent to the battlefield!"

"Damn it, these Zheng people!"

There was another scream outside the hall of the Criminal Prison Office, "But they were by our side over the years and never found it..."

"Who is the big customer you mentioned? Let's answer according to the truth?"

Ruo Ao Zike ordered "Sujing" and finally asked the most critical question. Ruo Ao Ziliang sat in the jury seat, briefly looked at the previous person, and looked deeply at the Xian brothers and sisters in the hall. It seemed that as long as they answered, they would be sentenced to death.

All the people stretched their necks forward, waiting for Xian Gao's answer with great concentration.

"It is the captain of the Hu Ben Imperial Army of your country: Ruoao Yuejiao!"

When the stern high reports this name.

The whole audience took a breath: I really said that name!

Ruoao Ziliang immediately tightened his sleeves, shaking his hands into fists, and wanted to get up and scold him, but what was faster than him was Ruoao Zike, who was sitting in the upper position, sank his eyebrows and eyes.

The awe-in-law in his hand knocked heavily: "Ruo Ao! The Duke of Ruo Ao is in charge of the 50,000 Tiger Ben Imperial Guards in the Palace of the Chu King, and is the number one warrior in my Great Chu. How could you allow the Zheng people to slander them at will? Moreover, as the Duke of the Imperial Guard, why did he acquire 50,000 slaves? Are you trying to rebel against Ruo Ao? "

After the court, in the dark back hall, Yin Ziban and Mi Huang were both sitting quietly in the back hall as if listening to a play.

They heard this sentence at the same time.

The former frowned and even heard Ruo Ao Ziliang questioning in the court: "I'm afraid that Ruo Ao Sibai's words are biased, right?"

"I wonder where Lord Sima thinks it is biased?"

Ruoao Sibai stood up respectfully and bowed to him.

"Rebellion is a serious crime of treason, and purchasing slaves may not be a rebellion. Moreover, if such a person said that the 50,000 slaves of Ruo Duwei had been given to the king, the rebellion was not true. What the Sibai Lord said was a speculation and not a fact."

Ruo Ao Ziliang said in a deep voice, even though the person sitting in the middle was his favorite nephew, his tone was still very tough.

Ruoao Zike smiled jokingly and sued him, "Mr. Sima taught him a lesson."
