The wicked man was executed, and the whole city once again watched.
This time, the people had learned from their last experience, so they all brought small stools, dried fruits, snacks and melon seeds, and carried water bags to occupy advantageous positions in advance.
Those who had been bullied by Wang Yuanwai's mansion and suffered unfair judgments from Jingzhao Yin Li Zhong all prepared hammers, wooden sticks and the like.
When Wang Yuanwai and Li Zhong in the prison car saw this scene, they were so frightened that they howled loudly.
They still vividly remembered the execution that took place two months ago. They never expected that things would change and it would be their turn so soon.
They wailed and wailed.
They knelt down and begged for mercy.
They sincerely repented.
Citizens: It is the King of Hell’s business to forgive you. Our duty is to help you relax your muscles and bones so that you can get on the road better.
After this incident, everyone in Xuanlong Kingdom, from the nobles to the landlords and gentry, warned their useless sons, fearing that they would accidentally offend someone they shouldn't.
Moreover, since the former Jingzhao Yin Li Zhong colluded with the enemy and betrayed the country and oppressed the people, Murong Ye ordered Gao Zhengqing to take office and Li Shengsheng to be the clan leader of the Zongrenfu.
The two worked together seamlessly, and some unjust, false and wrong cases were reopened and retried.
When they encounter incomplete laws, they will discuss with each other, and Murong Ye will make the final decision.
But there was one case that made Gao Zhengqing and Li Sheng a little unsure.
They encountered a very difficult case, a bullying case.
A group of teenage boys bullied a frail child who lived with his grandmother for a long time.
In the end, she even had murderous intentions and pretended to trick the boy into reconciling, but in fact she had set a trap and waited for the boy to keep his appointment.
The boy went there happily and learned that they promised not to beat or bully him again. He also brought them some freshly baked jam pancakes from his grandmother in an attempt to please the demons.
However, what awaits him is slaughter and eternal darkness.
The child's grandmother had reported the case to the police to seek justice, but the former Jingzhao Yin Li Zhong had already received money from the child's parents and clan of the abuser, so he simply beat the man out.
He claimed that it was just a play between children and everything was just an accident.
Is it a surprise?
Gao Zhengqing and Li Sheng looked at each other and saw anger in each other's eyes.
They investigated the files and found that the victim had multiple skull fractures and dozens of broken bones in his body.
In addition, a large amount of dirt was found in the victim's nasal cavity, and a large amount of mud and sand was also found between his fingers.
In other words, after being beaten, bullied, and buried, the victim woke up once, and his instinct for survival made him struggle with all his might.
But, he was weak, helpless, covered in wounds, his body had long been at the end of its strength, and the ending seemed to have been predetermined...
After Gao Zhengqing and Li Sheng checked the files, they went from being angry at the beginning to being silent at this moment.
Li Sheng clenched his fists tightly, thinking of his five-year-old brother who was beaten to death by Prince Gong.
"These beasts are still at large! Blood debt must be paid with blood. I'll send people to take them to jail right now!"
Li Sheng acted quickly and the three perpetrators were quickly taken into custody.
However, the child's parents cried and wailed outside the government office, claiming that the child was too young and ignorant and should be given leniency.
The child's parents even mobilized their power and asked many people who were unaware of the situation to help plead for mercy.
Gao Zhengqing and Li Sheng felt the pressure instantly.
When Murong Ye learned about this, he summoned the two into the palace and hit the nail on the head.
On the day of the retrial, there was a crowd of people outside the Jingzhao Yin government office.
Faced with the people who were unaware of the situation, Gao Zhengqing and Li Sheng did not say much, but brought up the three children who had committed the violence.
In front of them, a large table of sumptuous food was prepared.
They were in jail for two days without eating a single grain of rice.
At this moment, the smell of the food has already aroused my appetite.
"You three, sit over there." Gao Zhengqing said condescendingly.
Hearing this, the three of them looked overjoyed.
Do you want them to eat?
Their faces were filled with joy, and they rushed over and sat down obediently.
After taking a look at the abundant food in front of them, they couldn't help but frown slightly.
The rice in front of me is very good, but the chopsticks are standing upright.
They had heard from the adults at home that they should not place chopsticks like this.
Almost subconsciously, they reached out to take the chopsticks, straightened them, and placed them on the edge of the rice bowl.
"Bang!" The sound of the gavel suddenly rang out.
Everyone was shocked!
Everyone's attention was drawn to Gao Zhengqing.
"You brats! Since you know it's wrong to hold your chopsticks upright, you can still correct it."
"It shows that you are already sensible and not childish anymore."
"This is a trivial matter, let alone something as serious as a matter of life and death!"
"He knew it was wrong, yet he still killed someone and showed no remorse, making his mistake even worse."
"The verdict in this case is now as follows: Zhang Tian, Li Xiaoai, Wang Ergou, you are guilty of murder."
"Blood debt must be repaid with blood. This is only natural."
"Although you are young, and there is no precedent for the death penalty for young children in this dynasty, but if there is no precedent, we will create this one!"
"All three of them are subject to death penalty, and can be executed!"
"The parents of these three children knew their children had committed crimes, but they covered up their crimes. They even bribed the former Jingzhao Yin Li Zhong to maliciously expel the victims' families."
"As a parent, failing to teach your child to be kind is the first sin. Maliciously shielding and disregarding etiquette is the second."
"I now sentence my father and mother to be beheaded together. You can be escorted to the execution ground immediately!"
Gao Zhengqing gave an order and the whole audience was in an uproar.
No one could have imagined that such a young child would be sentenced to death and his parents would be executed as well!
Some people who don't understand the situation still have complaints.
Gao Zhengqing nodded slightly when he heard this, and the lawyer immediately stepped forward to explain the whole story to everyone.
When the people heard this, their eyes turned from sympathy to anger and resentment when they looked at the three children.
"At such a young age, he's capable of doing such a heinous thing. What will he be like when he grows up?"
"Your Excellency's sentence is good! Your sentence is good! This is a wonderful death!"
"Yes, your Excellency has made a good judgment. Such a vicious and cruel person should go to hell!"
After learning the truth, everyone clamored to support Gao Zhengqing.
Faced with this scene, the three children and their parents were immediately panicked.
They all knelt down with their children and kowtowed to admit their mistakes.
"My Lord, I know I was wrong. Please be lenient with me." Zhang Tian cried.
"Yes, yes, I was wrong. When I grow up, I can help Xiaoguang to respect his grandmother. Please spare my life, master..." Li Xiaoai knelt down and kowtowed madly.
"Yes, we are still young. Please spare our lives, Master..." Wang Ergou cried miserably.
"Heh," Li Sheng sneered and shook his head when he saw this scene.
"Do you really know you're wrong?"
"No, you just know you're going to die."
"Your sadness and grief are not due to guilt or remorse for killing others, but because you are crying because you are about to die."
"From the beginning to the end, you have never felt any remorse, so you deserve to die!"
