Chapter 135 Regular Meeting of Tingwei Temple
Half of the sky in Tingwei Temple collapsed.
Zhou Zhao was murmuring in her heart. She looked diagonally behind Li Huaishan. There was a small table with a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old sitting there. He held a pen in his right hand and a pen on his left hand. The long sword seemed to be the subordinate officer who followed Li Huaishan on weekdays.
"Now that everyone is here, let's get started."
As soon as Li Huaishan finished speaking, the young man behind him brought a wooden shelf and placed it in the center of the table.
The shape of this shelf is quite special. There are six thin wooden pillars standing on the base, and abacus beads are strung on the wooden pillars. The three pillars on the left are marked with Xu Jun, Tao Shangshan, and Li Youdao; the three pillars on the right are marked with He Mingluan, Yan Song..., and Li Mu's name is newly added under the last pillar.
The beads in the left courtyard are red, while those in the right courtyard are green.
Zhou Zhao remembered what Min Zangzhi had said about the competition between the two houses. Then he looked at Li Mu's empty pillar and instantly understood why he wanted to snatch the case. Probably every bead represented the solving of a case, but he didn't know How long is this cycle?
It was nothing short of a public execution.
Zhou Zhao sat behind Li Youdao, feeling pressured by the court officials.
She thought, looking at Li Youdao again, the little old man was slumped down, nodding from time to time, feeling like he would fall asleep anytime and anywhere.
No, Lao Li has no pressure.
"Under the same roof of Tingwei Temple, it is clear at a glance who has handled how many cases. The major cases of the past ten days are also difficult and miscellaneous cases. Chang Zuoping and Guan Youping talked about each."
As soon as Li Huaishan finished speaking, Guan Youping over there spoke, "Qi State has a difficult case to submit. A woman named Xu has been beaten by her husband Wu Mang for more than 20 years. More than a month ago, Mrs. Xu resisted after being beaten again. Wu Mang was brutally killed on the spot, and the evidence was conclusive. The Qi officials sentenced Xu to death. However, Xu and Wu Mang's three daughters refused to accept it. "
"Four people complained and petitioned, demanding that Xu be found not guilty, but the Qi officials refused."
As soon as Guan Youping finished speaking, everyone started talking.
Zhou Zhao listened attentively, and couldn't help but feel excited. She really wanted to express her opinion, but she knew that it was not her turn to sit at the table yet.
This is not an ordinary discussion. If Tingwei Temple gives a verdict, this case can be used as a precedent in the future, affecting all subsequent similar cases.
"The murderer must pay for his life. This is an iron law and cannot be changed. Moreover, in this case, it is difficult to determine whether Xu's actions were caused by accidental killing during resistance, or whether she had planned for a long time and waited for an opportunity to kill her husband while being beaten. Wu Mang?
And even if Xu is the former, once Xu is found innocent, subsequent cases will be difficult to judge. The public is right and the mother-in-law is right. At that time, every similar case will be brought to Juetingwei Temple. Are we allowed to sit here and discuss it? ”
The person who spoke was He Tingshi from the right courtyard, "The punishment should be strict."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Youdao, who had been napping earlier, burst into laughter.
He laughed so wildly that everyone looked over, and Zhou Zhao, who was sitting behind him, could feel He Tingshi's glare affecting her body.
Her eyes were bright, and she did not lower her head like the other attendants who came to listen to the meeting, trying to make herself transparent.
Zhou Zhao just wanted to roll up his sleeves and get in there himself!
"Li Youdao, how much alcohol have you drunk today? From such a distance, I can smell the alcohol on you."
Li Youdao touched his beard, looking like a man with a knife, "Old He! You are really old, why are you so forgetful? I have a disease, and even if I don't drink, the intoxicating smell of alcohol will emit from my body. You Is this the first time you’ve met me? Are you still giving me such childish eye drops in front of Master Tingwei? ." He said and looked over lazily, "Besides, lazy government is not advisable! I should share my worries with you. How can you just let someone be beaten by evil spirits just because you have to worry about future cases? Where is the poor woman who has been living for twenty years going to die?”
Li Youdao shook his head as he spoke, "I would like to ask, Master He encountered bandits on the way. When life and death were at stake, could he resist and save his own life?"
He Tingshi sneered, "But Wu Mang is not a gangster, and the Xu family is not an official who can suppress bandits."
Li Youdao sighed, "To the Xu family, Wu Mang is an evil ghost more ferocious than the gangsters. Why, Mr. He wants to say that officials can save themselves, but the people can only sit and wait to die?"
People in the left and right courtyards began to quarrel.
The three people in the right courtyard were as still as a mountain. They ran faster than a carriage and began to quote scriptures.
Looking at the three people in the left courtyard, Xu Jun slapped the table with his hands. It was not enough. He had already started to move his feet. Even if he was reasonable, he seemed unreasonable.
Tao Shangshan felt like he was already lying in a coffin and went up the mountain. He had a peaceful smile on his face. No matter what the other party said, he would just respond with um, ah, oh.
Only Li Youdao was fierce in battle, and his sarcasm and sarcasm made him stand out from the crowd!
Zhou Zhao looked at it and felt extremely disillusioned. She felt that these old men would soon use their special skill to pull back their hair...
Finally, Li Huaishan spoke, "Why do you need to pay for killing with your life? Because human life is precious. How can dying be precious and living being despised? Xu's actions were just to survive, not to kill intentionally. It is excusable and the death penalty can be avoided. ”
Seeing that they had come to a conclusion, the old men tidied their hair, brushed off the wrinkles on their clothes, and returned to their previous sanctimonious appearance.

Zhou Zhao's mouth twitched, and he heard Chang Zuoping say, "Hundreds of old cases in the left courtyard have been solved this ten days. The murderers of the Zhaixing Tower collapse case and the Ghost Bride case have been arrested, and their colleagues in the right courtyard who were kidnapped have been successfully rescued!"
Zhou Zhao listened and mourned for a moment of silence for Qin Lang sitting opposite.
Chang Zuoping said, his expression was calm and not sarcastic, but the people in the right courtyard opposite had expressions so gloomy that they could shed tears.
Li Mu and Qin Lang wanted to throw their heads under the table.
Zhou Zhao looked at Li Youdao, who was shaking his legs with excitement, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. How childish is this little old man!
"In the case of Zhaixinglou, we found a villa on the shore of the East River. It is very likely that it is a remnant of the previous dynasty. The Northern Army has been secretly searching it."
Li Huaishan nodded when he heard the words. Seeing that there was nothing to say in the right courtyard, he pondered for a moment and said, "This matter is very important. I have also gone there to see it. I am afraid that Yang Gu is a spy and an assassin. I Already reported to His Majesty.
When the city of Qianchao was destroyed, there was indeed an orphan living outside. That person was called Gongzi Yu. Considering his age, Young Master Yu is still a child now, so he is not something to be afraid of. But he was afraid that someone would use his tiger skin as a banner and try to plot rebellion.
Recently, I have received news that there are four powerful craftsmen around the young master Yu, and they are very likely to be lurking in Chang'an now. Although it is the responsibility of the Northern Army to track down the rebels and protect Chang'an. But we at Tingwei Temple are also bound to shoulder our responsibilities. If you find any clues in recent cases, please inform me as soon as possible. ”
Zhou Zhao's eyes moved and his expression gradually became serious.
She stretched out her hand and touched the Pegasus Dragon Pony that she had kept in her sleeve pocket.
Could this thing be given by Young Master?
