Chapter 84 Death Penalty Becomes acquit

The A Yun case was being interrogated in the lobby of Kaifeng Mansion. There were many people inside and outside the lobby. Hearing A Yun's aunt say that A Yun was guarding his mother's funeral, everyone was in an uproar.

"Let's be quiet. I haven't finished asking yet." Wang's words really had a deterrent. The lobby quickly quieted down. Wang looked at Wei Da, who was stunned by Tang Bian. Obviously, Wei Da did not understand Wang's intention. Sima Guang lowered his head and was also thinking about what Wang was going to do.

A Yun's aunt again asked: "You received Wei Da's grain and gave A Yun to Wei Da. You have agreed on the day of marriage."

"It's an appointment. It's scheduled for two months." My aunt said vaguely,

"Why?"

My aunt looked up and saw Wang's bright eyes. That kind of majesty made her shiver,

"Because, because..." She looked at A Yun's uncle who knelt down again and said nothing,

Wang Pianlang said in a loud voice, "Let me say it for you, because Ah Yun doesn't agree, right?"

"Yes, he dislikes that Wei is old and ugly."

As soon as his aunt's words came out, everyone turned to look at Wei Da, who was standing on the edge of the lobby. He was indeed much older than A Yun, and his facial features were long, with triangular eyes, a collapsed nose, a big mouth, and a pimp on his face. It can be said that fifteen people looked at it for half a month. The women on the jury mat frowned one after another. If he is his own daughter, who will marry him,

"Li Shenzheng, I'm going to ask them, and then I'm going to ask A Yun a few questions."

Li Shen made a gesture of invitation. This case made Wang ask, which seemed to be different from what everyone saw at the beginning.

"A Yun, you look up."

A Yun gently raised his head, and Wang looked at A Yun and frowned. His long face was full of tears or mud. Except for those innocent big eyes, he couldn't see his original appearance at all.

"Li Shenzheng, I want people to make a basin of water and let A Yun clean his face."

The officials in the hearing looked at each other suspiciously. They had never heard of the trial and were dedicated to the prisoner's face.

Li Shen also agreed. Then the yaman broke the basin and put the towel in front of A Yun. The yaman looked up at Li Shen sitting in the lobby. Indeed, the yaman was also confused. Did he let himself wash the face of a female criminal?

"Open the shackles." Li Shen said that the ward service was relieved. Anyway, such a weak woman will definitely not make a big deal,

A Yun has been tossing around for several months, and now she is very weak. She hasn't seen such cool water for a long time. She took a look at the reflection in the basin. After a while, she slowly picked up the water in the basin. She only heard the sound of water in the lobby. When A Yun finished washing, she sorted out her messy hair, and then Still kneeling there with his head down,

The rucage withdrew the basin, and the king said, "A Yun, look up again."

This time, A Yun raised her head. She first looked at Wang with gratitude, and then saluted Xu Zun with tears in her eyes.

Li Shen sighed in his heart. No wonder Xu Zun wanted to help the girl get rid of her. This is not like a vicious murderer, a beautiful little girl.

"You turn around."

A Yun knelt down and turned around and looked up at the entrance of the lobby. Why were there so many people? Although she knew that there was a hearing in the hall when she came up, she didn't expect to face the reality of a row of seats, full of men and women, and there were still many people standing outside the court behind them, looking at her,

"Ah." The crowd intermittently exclaimed and sighed,

Such a young and handsome girl, his aunt and uncle promised her to the old and smelly Wei Da for a few days of food. The women of the jury remembered the girl's life, and some of her eyes were red,

The impression score has been very extra, but how can Wang Fang help her clear her guilt? After seeing A Yun, everyone turned their eyes to Wang's side,

"A Yun, how old are you this year?"

At this time, Wang's tone was obviously different from when he asked his aunt just now,

"13 years old."

"Cax." Someone finally couldn't help it under the lobby: "Is this still a little girl? Why is her uncle and aunt so cruel that they can't be sentenced to death?"

"Yes, yes, you can't be sentenced to death." The people around you should also be at peace,

"Don't make any noise." The government official came over and pulled the person who took the lead in shouting outside Kaifeng Mansion,

A group of people immediately gathered up. The man still snorted angrily and told the people on the outside of Kaifeng Mansion what he heard inside. Now the outside of Kaifeng Mansion also blew up. The little girl was too pitiful.

"Li Shenzheng, ministers and members of the jury, now I can say my opinion."

"Speak up." Ouyang Xiu couldn't help it. He said to the king. When he said this, everyone in the hall looked at him and saw that he was secondary. When he saw Zhao Yu sitting next to Ouyang Xiu, shaking the fan and looking at the scenes that happened in the hall, the people in the hearing couldn't help but be nervous.

The king nodded to Zhao Yu, and then said, "A Yun's murder of her own husband is an unforgivable crime. According to the law, it should be beheaded, but... Even if A Yun does not murder Wei Da, he should be beheaded, so I ask A Yun to be beheaded twice."

A Yu didn't cry this time. She tilted her head and looked at the king very puzzledly. The great benefactor who spoke for herself said that he should be beheaded twice. There was a lot of discussion in the hall. Isn't this pushing A Yun to death?

"This king, have you taken the wrong medicine?" Ouyang Xiu said angrily,

Zhao Yu smiled and said, "Gao, put it to death and live later."

"I knew that this king is not a good thing. Concubine De, you see, you said to speak for this A Yun." Yang Jian's eyes turned red when he saw Concubine De looking at A Yun. At this time, he stirred up the wind and said,

"Next to the king, I've never heard of beheading people twice. What do you mean?" Li Shen asked,

"Li Shenzheng, the murder of her own husband is unforgivable, but the eighth unforgivable is unforgivable. If A Yun marries Wei Da two months later, she will only die two months late. For a girl who has no way to live at all, isn't it light to be sentenced to death now?" Wang said angrily,

"However, who made this easy-born girl have no way to live and moved the idea of killing Wei Da?" Wang's anger suddenly infected a lot, and everyone looked at A Yun's uncle and aunt indignantly,

At this time, dozens of pairs of eyes stared at A Yun's aunt like blades. The two of them hid on one side and their legs trembled all the time. This case has been tried so many times, and this is the first time that this result has come out.

"Qingtian, A Yun didn't kill Wei Da, Wei Da didn't die, and A Yun didn't go to the door. It can't be regarded as murder of her own husband. This has nothing to do with us." My aunt kept defending,

"Buzz." There was another burst of discussion, "Yes, it can only be regarded as hurting people. How can it be regarded as the death penalty of murdering a biological husband?"

"Everyone, everyone has heard that A Yun can only be regarded as a case of injury, or a deliberate injury, but she has a plot of surrender. Should she be punished lightly?"

Sima Guang is not stupid, and everyone sitting in the trial is not stupid. The emperor has come, and this is different from usual in the court. It is an internal contradiction in the court. Now the facts are in front of everyone. The people's voice is so high that they can argue with the emperor. That's duty, but the emperor must obey the people. Not to mention these officials who are looking at the face of the emperor sitting in the crowd,

"If the prince says so, his sentence can be reduced." Sima Guang was relieved at this time,

Prince, A Yun faintly heard these two words, and she looked at the king more blankly,

"The sentence is reduced, haha, if it's just to reduce her sentence, I won't endorse her."

Sima Guan's face sank. The king's side was going against the sky. Even Xu Zun and Li Shen in the hall were confused. What happened to the king of Zhennan today? Anyway, the fact that A Yun hurt people was already in front of him. Does he still want to make A Yun innocent?

There was a sigh under the hall, and the king was so big,

Wang side smiled and said, "A Yun is thirteen years old this year. This matter can be testified by the governor of Dengzhou. The marriage of the ancients was the matchmaker of his parents. During the funeral, A Yun's mother did not fulfill her filial piety to fight against marriage and hurt people. This is a fact. A Yun's uncle and aunt hid the funeral. Those who heard the funeral and deliberately did not mourn. According to the law, this crime is a violation of the funeral. Among the crimes, the punishment is the heaviest; the highest punishment is to hear that the parents and husbands are mourning, and they flow 2,000 miles away; the lowest punishment is to hear that the young relatives are mourning, and they are 40. What's more excessive. They are still talking about marriage in frustration. Therefore, the perpetrator of this case is A Yun's uncle and aunt.

Hearing that A Yun's aunt rolled her eyes and fainted, his uncle wiped his tears at this time. He was disappointing. He listened to his mother-in-law in everything, and his niece was already very guilty.

"What the prince said is reasonable, but it is also true that A Yun hurt people."

"Everyone, I ask everyone how old a woman is allowed to marry. I'll answer: "Yi Li · Tu Di Li": A woman is allowed to marry, and she is polite, and the word, "Rite Book · Inner Provisions": A woman is allowed to marry, ... Ten or five years, is it possible that the village woman in Dengzhou does not understand etiquette, and my officials of the Song Dynasty do not understand etiquette, A Yungang ten Three years old, thirteen years old, everyone, think that if you have a thirteenth daughter, you will have the heart to let him marry Wei Da.

Wang pointed to Wei Da, Wei Da touched his head, and his face was even more blank: "What's wrong with me? I have money."

"Cut, ~" The people in the hall despised Wei,

"Quiet everyone, A Yun's case is actually very simple. First, as I just said, A Yun's mother refused to marry during the funeral, so she went to scare Wei Da. Let's see how A Yun can hurt Wei Da. Second, A Yun turned himself in after committing the crime. He put down the butcher's knife and turned back. Didn't the person who made mistakes have a chance to change his mind? In the future, whoever commits a crime will simply commit a crime to the end. It will not be more troublesome. Third, A Yun is not yet an adult, and the guardian is dereliction of duty. If A Yun commits a crime, he should first punish the guardian, Gu Yun, who has not raised his father. His uncle and aunt are now A Yun's guardians guardians. Why don't he take a good view of her and sell her to her at the price of several days of grain? Where's Wei Da?"

A piece of silence above the lobby

"I've finished my words. Please ask the jury to make a verdict."

The jury stood up in an instant and applauded the king, which was enough to keep the dead alive, not to mention the little girl kneeling in the hall, who looked so helpless and innocent.
