"Ahh Long Fei was stunned, he had never seen a defendant who would interrupt the words of the presiding judge and want to oppose Shenma.
He looked at Xia Xun blankly and asked, "I don't know what Fu Guogong wants to oppose" In a daze, he subconsciously used honorifics on Xia Xun, the suspect, and he didn't notice it.
Xia Xun stood there steadily, and said loudly: "Your Excellency the Presiding Judge, your Excellency the jurors, and Your Royal Highnesses the two princes, we all know that whether Shuangyuwei is a conspirator has not yet been concluded, and the charges have not yet been confirmed.
At this time, the presiding judge said that his country accepted bribes from the commander of the Shuangyu Guard, who had fornicated with the Japanese and the Japanese, wasn't it too hasty?"
Zheng Ci smiled, Zhu Gaochi nodded frequently, and said in unison: "Yes, it's too hasty." ” Long Fei's face seemed to have opened a dyeing workshop, red for a while, white for a while, purple for a while, black for a while, the conscience of heaven and earth, he was just used to the phrase of his surname.
Since ancient times, the court and justice are accustomed to the presumption of guilt, you see that the official who asked the case ascended to the court, slapped the shocking wood, and said at every turn, "Boldly disrupt the people, do not move the big punishment, judge you and don't recruit, come, the big punishment waits" If you are not guilty, why should you wait for the great punishment This is the presumption of guilt, whether you are guilty or not, I will fight first.
The problem is that Xia Xun is not Diao Min, so he wants to be more serious, Long Fei can't show his official authority, and his official authority doesn't know where to throw it when such a large jury and the jury composed of two princes appear.
Xia Xun walked around slowly, with one hand behind his back, and the other hand to help his tone, like a master teaching students: "Long Judgment, you just made three serious mistakes in this sentence" Long Fei ate and said: "The lower officials are ignorant, please ask the Guogong for advice" Xia Xun said: "First, the Tongwei case has not yet been concluded, and whether Xu Hu and others are guilty or not has not yet been decided.
At this time, as the chief judge, Long Juan kept saying how they fornicated with the Japanese cowards, isn't this the crime of being convicted without asking the case, maybe you are just unintentional words, but the unintentional words are the words from the bottom of your heart, I am very worried about whether your position and attitude can remain fair in the next trial."
Long Xuan squeaked, his face was flushed, he was just used to asking the case like this, and he just slipped his mouth, so many officials sat here and watched, how dare he bend the law for personal gain, let alone bend into a move, how did he know that Xia Xun would grab this little pigtail Xia Xun said: "Second, as a presiding judge, when you were promoted to the court to try the unconvicted charges of the national public, you used the sentence that the national public accepted bribes from the commander of the Shuangyu Guard, who was an adulterous widower.
It is very heinous for you to say this to the jurors and the two highnesses who are hearing the trial, and make them hostile to me, which may affect the normal trial that follows."
Poor, the dragon told him that he was sweating profusely, he wiped his sweat and nodded his head, and he couldn't say anything.
Zhu Gaoxu smiled and picked up the teacup, elegantly dialed the tea leaves, and said to Zhu Gaoxu, who was sinking like water, "Second brother, drink tea" Xia Xun talked eloquently, stretched out his finger, and said: "Third, whether this official accepts gifts or bribes is still uncertain.
Giving and receiving gifts is normal for people.
We ushered in the send-off, please eat and please, ordinary things, not necessarily giving gifts is bribery, receiving gifts is bribery.
For example, all the adults have feasted their colleagues, and they have given each other calligraphy and paintings, which is an elegant thing, can it be said that it is bribery and bribery, there are two important characteristics, if one of them does not match, it is not a bribe, but a gift, this must be clarified" In fact, how can a suspect be so arrogant in court, but when it is Xia Xun's turn to be a freak, he can.
Zhu Gaochi and Zheng Ci favored him, needless to say, Zhu Gaochu and Chen Ying already knew that no matter how arrogant he was, he couldn't be punished today, so why bother to be bored with people from both factions, and Lord Xue riding on the wall naturally didn't care.
As a result, the chief judge Long Feilong could only give up his hand pitifully and said: "Please also ask the national prince for advice" Xia Xun said earnestly: "First, what is given must be a valuable gift, and this value is mainly for the person who gives the gift."
If the giver has a lot of money, he catches two fresh fish from his pond and gives them to a friend, which is clearly a friendship, not a bribe.
If he gave away a priceless jade, which was extremely precious even to a wealthy family like him, then if there was no valid reason, it would be suspected of bribery. ” "Yes, yes, what Guogong said" "The second characteristic is whether the recipient of the gift, after accepting the gift, responds to the improper return, the use of power for personal gain, the convenience of favor, or the convenience of his illegal acts, etc., etc., etc., so to judge whether it is a bribe, it also depends on whether the giver has received any benefits from the recipient, and it is a benefit that is not allowed by the law of the land."
Long Fei had a smile on his face that was more ugly than crying, and arched his hand and said: "What Guogong said, hit the nail on the head, and the lower officials suddenly opened, and they were taught, taught."
In the past half a day, Xia Xun said while walking, Long Fei didn't dare to sit, just stood behind the public case, pouting his ass and waiting for the lesson, who is the judge of whom Under the hall, many idlers from the Yamen and other yamen came to do errands stood there quietly to watch the excitement, including the people of Qiu Fu, the Duke of Qiguo, the people of Zhu Neng, the Duke of Chengguo, and naturally the people sent by other officials of the Yamen who cared about this matter, but everyone tacitly knew that they were all "happened to do things", so everyone was idlers.
Among them, there is a young man, wearing a green silk official uniform with a tight waist and narrow sleeves, and a "unified hat", which is what he later used to call a melon skin hat, with happy eyebrows and smiling eyes, beautiful and beautiful, looking more delicate than a beautiful girl, playing with a folding fan that is out of season, watching Xia Xun teach the dragon to break things, both eyes are bent into crescents.
In addition to Xiao Ming'er, which other person can this person be?
Seeing that her sweetheart was majestic, Ming'er was very happy and proud.
Xia Xun didn't know that Ming'er was also in the hall, since he went to the hall, he was there to play the music, the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies was not a place where anyone could come, and he didn't think that his family would come in to see him.
Xia Xun said: "For example, in order to thank Yang Xu for helping him escape from Jinling, the Second Highness said some time ago that he had given two turtle beauties to each other, and they were placed in the homes of ordinary rich gentry, and they were willing to give them exotic beauties that were also extremely precious and rare, so it must be something to ask for and have a plan, but for the wealthy families and noble ministers, it is an ordinary thing to give beautiful concubines and beautiful maids to each other, can you say that the Second Highness is a bribe, and I can give the Second Highness what kind of reward for bending the law for personal gain."
Long Xuan hurriedly said: "It is reasonable, this is reasonable."
This kind of behavior is to give and receive gifts, and to reciprocate gifts, not to give and accept bribes."
"Smart" Xia Xun gave him a thumbs up, and then turned to Zhu Gaoxu, who was secretly gritting his teeth with hatred, but still had a shallow smile on his face, and said with a smile: "The two blonde and blue-eyed exotic beauties that His Royal Highness gave to Yang Xu are charming and knowledgeable, and Yang Xu is happy in them, and the aftertaste is endless.
Hehe, thank you so much, Your Highness. ” Ming'er was unhappy, pursed her lips, snorted secretly, and thought sourly: "Is it fun and endless?"
Her two slender jade fingers like green onions rubbed against the folding fan, and there was a feeling of screwing on the soft flesh of Xia Xun's waist.
Chen Ying coughed and said, "Fu Guogong, don't talk about anything that has nothing to do with this case." ” Xia Xun smiled, turned to Long Fei and said: "To sum up, whether I am guilty or not guilty, I need to be tried by the presiding judge to know, at this time, I will start on the grounds of accepting bribes, and I am accepting bribes from people who are in charge of the law, which is unfair."
Long said embarrassedly: "Then, then, cough this official has issued an edict to try whether Yang Xu, the Duke of Fuguo, has ever accepted a valuable gift from Xu Hu, the commander of Shuangyu Wei, and therefore used his power for personal gain, benefited convenience, and gave back an improper and illegal return, opening the door for the improper and illegal behavior of Xu Hu, the original defendant and the corresponding things have been submitted to the court, and the trial is now open."
After saying this long and winding words, Long Duan almost didn't suffocate to death, but after thinking about it carefully, it was really a drop of water to talk like this, and he couldn't help but be a little proud, Long Duan owed himself to the two princes and jurors who heard the trial, sat back on the chair gently, and said: "Ren Jian, Taicang Wei commanded Ji Wenhe's personal guard, Taicang Wei was ordered by Luo Yudu to take over Shuangyu Island, and when Shuangyu Wei was suspected of colluding with the evidence, you found this account book that recorded gifts to Yang Xu, the Duke of Fuguo, and now you say the relevant situation."
Yang Xu had already sat back in his chair, and suddenly interjected: "Lord Presiding Judge, it seems that everyone is not together yet, my person suspected of accepting bribes has already gone to court, why is the person suspected of bribery missing?"
Long was stunned for a moment, then turned his eyes to Chen Ying, Chen Ying cleared his throat and said: "That's the case, because Xu Hu is the key criminal in another big case, in order to prevent collusion with relevant people, he has been closely guarded.
This person was arrested for committing a crime, thinking that he would die, so far he has not said a word, no matter how you interrogate, he has never said a word, and he has not only said a word about bribery or suspected bribery.
Therefore, we, the presiding judge and the jury judges, have deliberated and decided not to mention him in court for the time being.
Since Taicang Wei searched out the account book and some exhibits on Shuangyu Island, with this evidence, Xu Hu, as a suspect, even if he denies it in court, cannot be used as evidence to clarify the case, so we can only screen the authenticity of the account book and related evidence. ” Xia Xun immediately said: "In other words, as a party who gave bribes, it can now be determined that he has denied the bribery, denied the authenticity of the account books and related evidence, right?"
Chen Ying was silent for a moment and reluctantly said, "So to speak." ” Xia Xun said: "Yes, yes, no, no, above the court, there is no ambiguity, all the imperial envoys" Chen Ying's heart rushed up with a burst of fire: "If Yang Xu hadn't made a secret decree from the Holy Lord, how could I spare you" After thinking about it, he finally felt that it was a foregone conclusion that he couldn't entangle with him, the top priority was to reduce the loss as much as possible, a broken wrist would hurt enough, don't be bitten by him, if you break your arm, it will hurt your vitality.
So he nodded stiffly and said, "Yes, Xu Hu denied paying bribes and denied that the relevant evidence was his own."
"Good" Xia Xun stretched out his hand and pointed at the secretary and said, "This passage, write it down" After Xia Xun finished speaking, he turned his head and glanced at Ren Jian of Taicang Guard, and said with a smile: "It's your turn, let's say it" As he spoke, he inadvertently made a small movement, and a public servant who was crowded in the crowd to watch the excitement immediately turned around and walked out Diarrhea last night, as a result of this morning at six o'clock tossed up, since the up, then the yard, the result is only half of the yard whirlwind, sitting there I feel that my body has slid far away, after regaining consciousness, I found that there was a nosebleed, it seems that this night is very exhausting.
Wash my forehead with cold water, plug my nostrils with a tissue, and insist on finishing this chapter, send it up first, I'll go and lie back, and the third is a little later.
