Drunkenly Resting Head Against Rivers and Mountains Chapter 356: I said not to kill
Wu Zetian will hang a group of chaotic thieves and give up the will of the city for three days, and then Yushidai will be busy up and down.
Because Di Renjie passed the bleeding book, the emperor was suspicious. Qi Feng was sent to Yushitai to investigate whether officials were tortured because of severe punishment. Lai Junchen was confused and worried about the night. Dreams grow, regenerate branches. He put his heart straight and made a "Death Form" in the name of the detained officials. The empress issued the order of execution accordingly, but in fact many prisoners did not plead guilty or even tried it.
Lai Junchen had to call back all the history of the guards, and hurriedly go through all the procedures that should be taken in this trial, because the transcripts and confessions of these trials must be submitted to Dali Temple for record. In case one day the emperor rises, he will send an officer who is proficient in prison to check the files. If the elements are not complete, the emperor can be asked to find the final decision sloppy.
Zuo Yushitai has a total of 15 traveling servants. In addition to Lai Junchen himself, only the fifteen servants in the entire Yushitai have the right to go to court.
Before Wu Zetian took control of the Korean government, Shi Shishi was only responsible for inferring cases and impeaching officials. Whether the offenders were guilty would be tried by Ministry of Justice. The Dali Temple would review the death penalty. Execution of death penalty.
After the Empress Wu, in order to more easily crack down on opposition forces, it strengthened the power of servant history and simplified the examination and approval link for the death penalty. Since then, Shi Yushi has the triple powers of investigation, trial, and execution of law. He has the right to execute the prisoner on the spot, and the prisoner has no right to appeal.
Lai Junchen is able to cover the sky with one hand precisely because Yu Shitai has the power to kill such lives. The fifteen servants history is now in Beijing, plus Lai Junchen himself, divided into eight groups, two people in a group, the public offices of the Yushitai are used as public halls, assault trial criminals.
and Hou Sizhi's partner jointly tried the prisoner, Xu Yougong, who had just returned to Beijing not long ago. Xu Yougong is already in his early fifties this year. He has a thin figure and a clear face, so he looks younger and looks no more than forty.
Hou Enzhi is actually not fat, but his cheeks are indented, his jaw is pointed, and his beard is sparse. Compared with Xu Yougong's dignified appearance, he is dwarfed.
Lai Junchen prides itself on being alone in the DPRK and China, without forming a party or a party, to show its loyalty to Wu Zetian. Xu Yougong is like the second Lai Junchen in the small Imperial Court of Yushitai. He is also not a party or a party. He just wants to form a party and there is no way to start. Because the entire Yushitai, except him, all the officials are Attached to Lai Junchen.
"Hmm ..." Now ..., hearing ... ",
Hou Sizhi pretended to turn the roster of prisoners and waited for the clues from the clerk next to him. Suddenly, Hou Sizhi was trembling with a loud bang, Xu Yougong gave a shocking startle. , Stubborn face, sighed full of breath: "Come on! Men who commit Yang Fan!"
Hou En gave Xu Yougong an angry look, his sleeve flicked, and his head twisted aside.
Soon, Yang Fan handcuffs and shackles were raised into the public hall with a jingle, Xu Yougong reached out to get the gavel, Hou Si stopped his eyes quickly, grabbed the gavel, snapped it and snapped: "Criminal Yang Fan, don't kneel to stand trial!"
Xu Yougong coughs said: "Hou Yushi, this is not the ceremony of honoring the heavens, worshiping ancestors or Imperial Court, why did you still get down on your knees, do you need to kneel on the court? I know! Whenever you come to Zhong Cheng, your majesty must pay a five-body gift. That is to say that Zhong Cheng pays tribute to the emperor in his unique way. Above the public hall, you and I ca n’t hold the law and break the law. "
Hou Sizhi was ridiculed by him. A thin face was red like a monkey buttocks, but Xu Yougong made sense, Hou Sizhi could not argue, so he had to drink to Yang Fan: "Prisoner Yang Fan, there is a driver today. Captain Zhu Bin told you to accomplice with him, in order to respond to the rebellion, to rebel against the crowd, and subvert Da Zhou, can you plead guilty? "
Xu Yougong said slowly and reasonably: "Hou Yushi, haven't asked for the name and surname yet, to verify the true body, what are you in a hurry?"
Hou Sizhi could not bear it, saying: "This person is Yang Fan, can there be anything wrong?"
Xu Yougong was stroking his beard and said leisurely: "There is nothing wrong, the procedure should be taken. The official asked the case, it has never been a trace!"
Hou Si sighed and dropped the gavel, brushing his sleeves: "You test! You test!"
Xu Yougong asked Yang Fan's name, origin, and current position from beginning to end, and the clerk next to him verified that it was correct. This repeated his charge and asked, "Can you confess?" /
Yang Fan stood steadily in the hall, Shen Sheng replied: "Xu Yushi, Yang is innocent!"
Xu Yougong slightly raised two thick eyebrows and asked, "Isn't guilty, what's the explanation?"
Yang Fan said: "Yang has never committed a crime and is naturally guilty! Although Yang had served in Zhu Bin's subordinates, he did not have any personal relations with him, nor did he plan and rebel with him. However, after being sentenced and chasing indiscriminately, Yang was wronged. Please also ask the emissary to investigate. "
Hou En could n’t help but rushed and said, “Being in the public hall, it ’s a quibble! Si Liqing Pei Xuanli has admitted that he introduced him from there and took you to see Dong Guan Shangshu Li Youdao, accepting his huge bribe, Li Youdao I have promised you that once you succeed, you will be promoted to Great General! "
Yang Fan said: "What do you say about Li Youdao?"
Xu Yougong immediately said: "Li Youdao refuses to plead guilty and is in trial!"
Yang Fan widened his heart and said: "Yang Moushi has never conspired with anyone, nor even accepted bribes from others. Yang is willing to confront Zhu Bin and Pei Xuanli in court!"
Xu Yougong said slowly: "Zhu Bin died of an epidemic and can no longer confront you. As for Pei Xuanli ...",
He glanced at Hou Sizhi. Hou Sizhi called a clerk to ask a few words and whispered to Xu Yougong: "Pei Xuanli is now testifying at the Wei Yu History Department, and he can't come over for the time being."
looked at Yang Fan and said loudly: "Sinner Yang Fan, do n’t be lucky and think you can get through! You said you did n’t accept bribes from others, then you have 16 shops that you suddenly own in Nanshi. Where did it come from? "
Yang Fan said: "Did you say that shop ..." is a gift from a noble person! "
Hou Enzhi asked: "Who is your noble surname, where do you live, why is it for you?"
Yang Fan said: "This is Yang's private business, so it is inconvenient to advise!"
Hou Sizhi was furious, and gave a shocking shot, shouting: "Yang Fan, don't you toast or eat fine wine, do you have to suffer from some flesh and skin to be honest? Come on!"
"Be slow!"
Xu Yougong said again: "Hou Yushi, this is a major case of rebellion, which is of great importance. If the sentence is used rashly, the suspect will be sentenced, but the confession will be violent and will inevitably injustice the good person. It is only appropriate to ask him to refute, and bow his head to confess guilt. "
Hou Sizhi gave Xu Yougong a glance, and Yin and Yang said strangely: "With your Xu Wuzhang, how to collect evidence?"
Xu Wuzhang is the nickname of Xu Yougong. Xu Yougong was originally a Puzhou official, because he never used a punishment to make a case, but was investigated by multiple parties. He used a large number of irrefutable evidence to make the prisoner confess voluntarily Local love, respectfully called him "Xu Wuzhang." Xu Yougong was able to enter the dynasty as an official, just because his good name passed to the ears of Wu Zetian.
Xu Yougong said: "Although Zhu Bin is dead, Pei Xuanli is still alive. After he has finished his testimony, he will mention him over here. What is the hurry? In addition, I want to know who gave him the shop at Yang Fan, Can someone be sent to the Luoyang office to read the books and find out who transferred them from? "
Hou Si stopped his anger and whispered to him: "Xu Yushi, come to Zhongcheng and rush to close the case. You do n’t know, you are not embarrassed Houmou, you are doing right against Zhongcheng. ! "
Xu Yougong said as if nothing happened: "Xu is just impartial and the case is right, why talk against Zhong Cheng?"
Hou En whispered: "You thought Hou was so stupid that I didn't know to check the store's door contract. I already checked it! The problem is, there is no such person! This line is broken. Do you understand? Zhu Bin and Pei Xuanli It has been admitted that Yang Fan is their accomplice, can this person's rebellion still make a difference? If the board beat him to confess, the case will be closed, why should it be so troublesome? "
Hou Sizhi's remarks were straightforward. Because "based on facts." This is a semi-decided basis that appeared in modern law. What was the main basis for the judgment in the Tang Dynasty?
is a statement!
The so-called "crimes are determined by confession." Therefore, Lai Junchen only racked his brains and spared no effort to come up with a large number of non-human torture tools to force confessions. Therefore, although Wu Zetian did not see any evidence, only to see that the ministers drew the confession and pressed the fingerprints of the fingerprints, they made a decision.
However, confession also has some corresponding requirements as evidence. Under the principle of "convict from confession", there is also a principle of "conviction by public evidence", which means that confession must be more than three confessions to take effect. This is the so-called "three people confirm, two people testify".
Now the crime of Yang Fan has been confessed by Zhu Bin and Pei Xuanli. As long as there is one more person, whether he or Li Youdao, Yang Fan can be thrown into death row and pending.
Then why does n’t Lai Junchen find another person as the third testimony?
Because Yang Fan is in charge of the soldiers in the palace, although the official position is not big, the role in this "rebellion case" is very great, it is an important role in this rebellion case, Lai Junchen deliberately arranged such a role for him In order to kill him and prevent him from escaping, who let him have so many forces behind him.
Because Yang Fan plays an important role, in order to make things like that, Lai Junchen helped him compile a story of conspiracy with Zhu Bin and Pei Xuanli to lead the needle, and Li Youdao solicited reuse. There are fewer people, so there are fewer flaws, lest the backers behind the Yang Fan intervene to find loopholes.
Who knows that this matter wants to be closed, this setting has become a cocoon, Li Youdao has not pleaded guilty, Yang Fan has not pleaded guilty, Lai Junchen is not easy to find someone, and then act as an insider of Yang Fan rebellion, he has to be strict with Li Youdao. While trying to force Yang Fan to confess.
Hou Enzhi whispered these words and lowered his posture, which gave Xu Yougong a good face, but Xu Yougong didn't appreciate it. He said coldly: "It's impossible for the law to be incompatible with the law!"
Hou Enzhi has been tolerant for a long time. Seeing him being so indifferent, he couldn't help but be furious. He showed up when he was a scumbag when he was a squatter and selling cakes. Hou Si stood up, stepped on the chair, and pulled his sleeves, angrily said: "Xu Wuzhang, you I thought that if you understand Wang Fa, someone Hou doesn't understand Wang Fa? Someone remembers that if a criminal is cunning, he can be sentenced. "
Xu Yougong watched him put on a sloppy look, not anxious and annoyed, and slowly nodded, "Yes! It is punishable, torture can be done once every 20 days, no more than three times in total, the total number of rods No more than two hundred sticks. If the torture is fatal, the presiding officer is not responsible! You know this rule? "
"Ah?", ..., the official ... Of course the official knows! "
Hou Sizhi is basically an illiterate person, otherwise he will not sit down when Wei Yuanzhong is being interrogated. He, the chief judge, is standing with a joke of training. In fact, Xu Yougong didn't really know what he said. He only knew that he could indeed use torture to force confessions.
Now that Xu Yougong has confirmed this, Hou Sizhi is even more confident. He grinned and gave a wink to the officers in front of the church, grabbed the shocked wooden gavel, and shouted, "Come! Yang Fan used a stick and hit him until he moved! "
Xu Yougong said slowly: "What if Yang Fan doesn't work?"
Hou Sizhi said: "Then use two hundred sticks to talk!"
Hou Sizhi is so arrogant, although he is in a hurry, some recklessness, but also because of certainty. Xue Huaiyi After the last messy court, I was worried that Lai Junchen was in violation of Yang Fengyin and sent people to visit Yang Fan every day. However, since the emperor confirmed the conviction and committed the execution, Xue Huaiyi has not sent anyone to come. It seems that he also has Dreaded. With this section, Hou Sizhi's courage is enough.
Xu Yougong said slowly: "Tie Da's body can't withstand even hitting two hundred sticks, Hou Yushi, you made it clear that he will be killed alive in the public hall?"
Hou Sizhi shouted: "What can I do if someone kills him here alive?"
Xu Yougong stood up in shock and shouted: "Xu Yougong is here, this person cannot die!"
Hou Sizhi swallowed: "Movement!"
Xu Yougong shouted: "Who dares!"
Hou Sizhi grabbed a sign and threw it down the hall ~ IndoMTL.com ~ screamed: "Immediately use punishment! First hit one hundred, if not, then one hundred!"
Xu Yougong grabbed a sign and threw it down the hall, shouting: "Take Hou En down, strip off his official clothes, and hit the sixty boards again!"
Yang Fan this prisoner has become a bystander since he hit the lobby without saying a few words. The first two presiding judges were lip guns and tongues and arrows, and then the crossbows were drawn. They looked at the sign jumping around, looking at each other, not knowing which officials to follow.
Hou Sizhi pointed to Xu Yougong's nose and said, "Xu Yougong, do you dare to cover criminals?"
Xu Yougong waved like a dusty fly, "Why is this official acting impartially, how can I cover it up?"
Hou Sizhi pointed to Yang Fan and shouted: "The official wants to interrogate the confession, but you are obstructing it. Isn't this sheltering?"
Xu Yougong said: "According to my law of breaking prison, interrogation of criminals must first be sentimentally, and their arguments should be tried, repeated trials, and they can never be resolved. Sentence, then torture, offender, stick sixty! What is wrong with the officer. "
Hou illiteracy was fooled by Xu Yougong's remarks, his small eyes blinked, his arrogance suddenly became smaller, and he asked in a hurry: "You ... what are you talking about?"
