Chapter 328

On the tenth day of April, it was the day of reckoning.

According to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, local governments and counties open offices every five days to release lawsuits and accept various civil lawsuits.

As for criminal litigation cases, they were all cases of immediate prosecution and trial, otherwise, if there were a murder case on the first day of the first lunar month and the investigation and interrogation were only conducted by the government on the fifth day, wouldn't it have been a big mistake?

Of course, some facts were present, and homicide cases with little urgency would also be postponed until the release date for trial.

For example, in today's case

Your Excellency, I just had an affair with that woman, but I never thought of harming anyone's life. Please make a clear decision, Lord Qingtian! freewebn ovel.com

Report to the Lord; after careful investigation by the corpse examiner, it was found that the deceased accidentally stumbled and died due to a collision with a pillar, not due to external forces.

At first glance, this seemed to be a case of an affair leading to the accidental death of his husband.

But if that were the case, Sun Shaozong wouldn't have to be embarrassed. Although there was indeed an element of infidelity in this case, the person who died was not the woman's husband, but the woman's son!

The general process of the entire case was as follows:

Li was a widow for four years, with only a seventeen-year-old son under her.

Before, she used to spend all day wandering around her son, and she didn't think much of it. However, since her son found a job last year, he went out early and returned late every day, and he rarely communicated with his mother when he returned. Li suddenly couldn't find any spiritual support.

At this moment, Cobbler Wang at the end of the street took advantage of the opportunity and hooked up with her, which became a good thing.

If this cobbler Wang has a family and a business, it was indeed an affair with the Li, and this case was easy to say.

However, Cobbler Wang was also a widower and had some genuine feelings for Li. He had even asked someone to propose marriage to Li. Li naturally had no objections, but her son was angry and immediately beat the matchmaker out, ordering his mother and Wang not to come back again.

Li's lips agreed, but privately she didnt sever her relationship with Cobbler Wang, and he was still half-hidden in collusion.

The eight neighboring families, knowing the reasons behind it, all turned a blind eye and didn't consider it a shameful thing. They only lamented that Li's fate was not good and that she had such an unreasonable son.

But three days ago, Cobbler Wang went to have an affair with Li again. Unexpectedly, Li's son returned home early and blocked him inside.

Li had no choice but to let Cobbler Wang hide in the wardrobe.

Unexpectedly, shortly after Li's son entered the door, he smelled the foul smell of Cobbler Wang's feet, so he followed suit and pulled him out, tearing him apart.

Seeing Cobbler Wang being beaten and bleeding, Li was afraid of causing death and rushed to embrace his son, telling Cobbler Wang to run away quickly.

Unexpectedly, his son broke free from her shackles and chased after him in uncontrollable anger, causing a real loss of life. It was not Cobbler Wang who lost his life, but the son of Li!

If it were to be said that Cobbler Wang had resisted before, it would be enough. However, Li's son fell and died on his own, and Cobbler Wang didnt dare to touch him at all.

This kind of foolish thing, if it went quietly, the government would definitely not pursue it.

Although Li was originally passionate about adultery, when she saw her son lose his life, she immediately turned her back and refused to recognize anyone. She filed a lawsuit against Cobbler Wang at the Central Judicial Office in Daxing County.

Moreover, she didn't know who had advised her, but she insisted that her son die while arresting adultery. According to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Cobbler Wang should be punished severely!

Li.

Sun Shaozong reminded her with some headaches, "If adultery is to be punished, Wang Chengcheng will certainly be punished even more severely, and you may not be able to get rid of it yourself.

Report back to Lord Qingtian.

As soon as Li knocked her head on the ground, she said without hesitation, "As long as I can avenge my son, I will be willing to be reincarnated with Lao Wang.

Spat~

She was willing to die with him, but Cobbler Wang didn't want to pay for his life. He spat angrily and cursed, "That day it was you who called me over, but now there's an accident and you insist on killing me wrongly. Do I owe you anything from my previous life?

Nope.

Li didn't distinguish herself from him either, but insisted, "So I'll die with you.

In the afterlife, I will serve as a bull and a horse to repay the debts.

You... You, you... You, you woman.

Cobbler Wang was only angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven, but he really didn't know what to do. He had to kneel again and cry to ask Lord Qingtian to uphold justice.

But Sun Shaozong was indeed caught in a dilemma.

In recent years, it has been emphasized that marriage follows the husband, and death follows the son. Therefore, according to surface logic, Li's son was indeed qualified to catch the adultery between his mother and Cobbler Wang.

According to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, if the bitter lord died on the spot when catching a traitor, regardless of whether he died at the hands of the traitor or not, he must be dealt with severely. At least two thousand miles per disciple, with a slight emphasis on palace punishment and the execution of the eunuch.

In fact, when Sun Shaozong first received this case, he also thought that if he couldn't do it, he could simply send Cobbler Wang two thousand miles away. If he couldn't, he would choose a good place and wouldn't suffer too much torture.

It was just that

Dad, Dad

I want Daddy! I want Daddy

Dad

The crying Dad trio outside the door, the eldest only nine years old and the youngest only four years old, if he were to punish Cobbler Wang to be exiled for two thousand miles, how should these three children survive?!

How about

Castrate him?

However, not to mention that for most men, it was even more painful than death, and the survival rate of adult men after being castrated these days was only about 70%.

Cobbler Wang was so unlucky that he didnt look like one of the 30%.

This case was much more complicated than investigating!

Sun Shaozong couldn't help but scratch his ears and cheeks in embarrassment, but he also had to scrutinize his image as the Great Master of the Blue Sky, especially when the stars he boasted about were descending to earth or the reincarnation of Justice Bao, he couldn't

Wait a minute~

Sun Shaozong suddenly came up with a crooked idea. Although this method didnt conform to the rules of the royal law, he had never been such a principled person, especially when things were urgent and he couldnt manage many taboos.

Since he had made up his mind, Sun Shaozong immediately spoke again, "The situation in this case is complex, and it is difficult for me to decide at the moment. To avoid delaying other lawsuits, I will postpone the retrial of this case for five days.

Your Excellency.

How could Li agree, banging her head and waiting to continue shouting grievances.

Pa~

Sun Shaozong, without hesitation, gave a startled slap and shouted, "The court is closed.

The Yamen attendants in the two corners of the hall began to leave, and Cobbler Wang hurriedly withdrew. Sun Shaozong followed closely and went to the back hall. Li muttered a few times reluctantly but had to go home.

When Sun Shaozong returned to the back hall, he immediately called on Zhao Wuwei to remind him and finally explained, "Tell that Wang to be honest, I have given him the opportunity to exonerate himself. If he doesn't show his confidence, don't blame me for sentencing him to a palace sentence.
