During the trial, everyone arrived. But Princess Wenwan hasn¡¯t arrived yet. Everyone is waiting for Wen Wan to come.
Master Yao was complaining. It was true that he was the chief judge appointed by the emperor, but the deputy judge was the princess. Master Yao gets a headache just thinking about it, cough. The job of chief judge is not easy to do. If I had known that the other deputy judge was the princess, he should have resigned due to illness! He was not worried that the princess would be unhappy and there would be something wrong with the gauze on her neck. The princess has always been fair and honest, and will not find fault in this for personal gain. Just to be afraid, the princess asked some embarrassing questions in the hall. At that time, should he, the chief judge, listen to the princess?
Everyone waited for a quarter of an hour (big names always appear last). Waiting for him was a woman in palace attire but still handsome, Xia Yao. Xia Yao was followed by a child.
Xia Yao has a special status and does not need to kneel down. Of course, don't even think about Xia Yao blessing them. He just said hello to several adults when he came in, and then said: "My lords, my princess is very busy and has no time to come and sit in for the trial. The princess said that she believes that the two adults can hear this case well. I will What I heard was relayed to the princess." Wen Wan just made a busy excuse this time, not even a nicer excuse like illness.
Lord Yao was relieved when he heard that Princess Wen Wan would not come and would only send someone to observe. Xia Yao is also a woman, and she is also a woman who should not be underestimated. But as long as he is not Princess Wenwan, his pressure will be reduced a lot. Otherwise, when he sees that the princess is dissatisfied with the outcome of his trial, he glares at him and guarantees that he will be frightened and will do whatever the princess says (there is no way, his gentle aura is too great. He looks too much like an emperor). How can this case continue to be tried? There is no distinction between priorities. There will definitely be trouble in the trial.
Han Guo Zhu had nothing to say about Xia Yao coming over, but why did he bring a child over during the trial: "Miss Xia Yao, you can sit here. But the eldest son" Han Guo Zhu had seen Bai Shinian and Mingrui's appearance. Similar to Bai Shinian. As soon as he saw Mingrui, he knew that he was the eldest son of Princess Wenwan. But why did you bring the eldest son here during the trial?
?? But there is no way. Whatever the princess says is whatever it is. Even if the princess pointed out that the deer was a horse, she could only agree that it was indeed a horse.
Lord Yao and Han Guozhu broke into a cold sweat. It is a good thing to let your son see the world, but to let your son see the world and come to Dali Temple is really unprecedented and rare. Princess Wenwan is definitely one of a kind.
Mingrui saluted the two adults: "I want to disturb you two adults. If there is anything inappropriate, please tolerate it." At this time, Mingrui was not pretending. Mingrui was very old-fashioned when he said this, just like a little adult.
The two of them were sweating profusely. I have always heard that the princess was young and mature. This eldest young master has definitely inherited the mantle of the princess: "The eldest young master is too polite. Add two stools and invite Miss Xia Yao to sit next to the eldest young master." As Mingrui, It's also good enough to sit on a chair. Not to mention Mingrui's performance just now. The two people who have experienced officialdom have been restrained. Both of them had an idea in their minds that this child was definitely not from the pool.
Mingrui was not modest either. When the stool came and he sat on it, Xia Yao took the lead. However, the stool is relatively high, and when others sit on it, their feet are off the ground. But even so, Mingrui sat upright and meticulous. Very classy.
Xia Yao didn't reveal Mingrui's expression on her face. But I was a little surprised. To know. In the past, when Mingrui was at home, he didn't practice Qigong so seriously. When facing Wen Wan, she always smiles with a smile.
Lord Yao and Han Guozhu looked at each other and opened the court for interrogation. The prisoners were brought up, and the first one to be brought up was naturally the chief general, Yu Heng. Yu Heng also knew that he was in danger. I plan to take it one step at a time. Although I knew that Princess Wenwan was also involved in this case, I had heard a lot about Princess Wenwan's reputation and knew that she was an impartial person, so I didn't have high expectations. The only thing I look forward to now is to keep my family safe.
When Yu Heng came out, the first thing he looked at was naturally the main seat. According to normal thinking, Princess Wenwan must be in the seat. It's a pity that there are only two old men on it. In a blink of an eye, he saw Mingrui with a straight face. Due to inertia, Yu Heng trembled all over and cried out: "General."
Mingrui frowned. Although he had never met his father, he knew his father's appearance very well. He looks more like his father, almost eighty percent. The man in front of you must be called his dad (not only his appearance, but also his aura is not inferior to your dad).
After hearing Yu Heng¡¯s call, Mingrui looked back at him coldly but said nothing.
Yu Heng, who was brought up, was just in a daze. After calling it out, I realized that I was wrong. The general can't go back any longer. I heard that General Brother¡¯s Grand DukeThe son looks similar to him. The child in front of me must be an eldest son. The incoming prisoner called Mingrui respectfully, "Yu Heng has met the eldest son."
Mingrui nodded in agreement. Mingrui has read the information of the sixteen prisoners who were interrogated today, and every one of them has made outstanding military exploits. Among them, Yi Yuhengli had the most military exploits, so his official position was promoted faster.
¡°Fourteen of these sixteen people all climbed up from the bottom, and they all followed his father through life and death. Mingrui said coldly: "Now, don't take any chances. Confess all the crimes you have committed, and you must bear the punishment you deserve. Don't forget, soldiers should dare to do whatever they want. Dare to accept it. Don't wait until the punishment is harmful to your body before confessing, which will make me look down upon you." Under normal circumstances, unless such a hero has committed a treasonable crime such as treason, or the amount of corruption is not shocking, the death penalty will not be imposed.
The corners of Han Guozhu and Lord Yao's mouths twitched. They haven't started your trial yet, but Mingrui made an opening statement first. It is rumored that this eldest son is a martial arts fanatic and will definitely take the military route in the future. I just didn't expect that he was quite considerate. Facing Mingrui, who was sitting upright, both adults knew that this eldest son looked like a general, but his temperament was that of a princess.
¡°I don¡¯t know if Mingrui¡¯s words had an effect, but Yu Heng was not punished severely. Yu Heng just confessed the crimes he committed as honestly as if he had turned a bamboo tube upside down. However, it is different from the impeachment matter. He has extorted money from businessmen and also embezzled money. However, the prisoner would never admit to the rape of a civilian girl: "Sir, I admit what I did. I have no qualms about the punishment for what I have committed, and I will not frown even if I am beheaded. But. I really didn't rape civilian girls. This is really a false accusation. At that time, the general issued a military order, and there was an explicit order in the Huwei Army that anyone who dared to rape civilian girls would be killed. And to put it bluntly, what would I do if I got to this position? If you don¡¯t have a woman, how can you rape a woman from the countryside? This is framed and framed to prevent us from ever being able to stand up. "With power, there is money. What kind of woman doesn¡¯t have power and money? Besides, they also have certain principles in how they act.
Master Yao and Guo Guozhu looked at each other. The prisoner admitted less than half of the charges impeached by local officials. There is still more than half that I haven¡¯t admitted. As for the admitted guilt, it is enough to be sentenced to death according to Daqi law (the decision of whether to be sentenced to death or not is actually in the hands of the emperor). There is not much difference between other admissions or not.
South Korea Zhu frowned. In fact, the punishment may be different if you plead guilty fully or half of the crime, but your future will be lost. There is no reason for the prisoner to deny half and admit half. And as the prisoner said, if he has money and doesn't have any kind of woman, why would he rape a civilian girl? Well, to paraphrase the prisoner's inappropriate words, how can a civilian girl have such a specially trained Yangzhou Shouma to use. It seems that there is something serious going on here.
The two adults did not torture Heng, they just asked him to sign a bond and took him down. This is also a piece of luck for the generals of the Huwei Army. The two officials sent by the emperor to examine the case were relatively honest compared to Lord Yao. Not to mention Korean pillars.
After Yu Heng walked out, Mingrui looked solemn. Wen Wan had previously shown the three of them the prisoners' military exploits and the crimes they had committed. But now I see that it is very different from the impeachment of subordinate officials below. But before coming here, Wen Wan told Mingrui that she could only listen and not talk too much.
Seeing Mingrui's expression, Xia Yao also told Mingrui to listen quietly. Seeing that the people around him didn't respond, Mingrui knew that Xia Yao was using a secret voice. He nodded to Xia Yao, indicating that he would not speak. It was just a routine conversation just now
Every prisoner who comes in looks at Mingrui first. The one who reacts slowly is called General, and the one who reacts quickly is called Young Master. From this it can be proved that these people are very familiar with Bai Shinian.
Except for Mingrui, who spoke to the first prisoner, he did not speak to any of the other prisoners. They all nodded their heads to the greetings of the prisoners who came up, which was regarded as acknowledgment.
The first prisoner was very cooperative and did not take much time. But the review of the remaining prisoners didn't go so smoothly. Half of them were crying that they were wronged. They even complained to Mingrui and asked Mingrui to make the decision for them. Mingrui is like an old monk entering concentration without any fluctuation.
Those who refuse and do not cooperate will naturally be tortured. The two adults looked at Mingrui, meaning that Mingrui had better leave, regardless of punishment. Mingrui shook his head.
The process of torture was quite brutal. Mingrui's face turned pale with fright. This was really frightening. It wasn't that Mingrui was timid, but that the punishment was too horrific and the prisoner's screams were too miserable.
Mingjin has a big opinion about Wen Wan: "Mom is just partial. She lets my brother go but won't let me go. Mom, I will go tomorrow too."
Wenwan nodded Mingjin¡¯s forehead: ¡°You¡¯re just a skinny monkey, what if I let you go, if you don¡¯t want to cause trouble? Just stay at home, wait for your brother to come back, let your brother goLet me tell you. "
