Bao Zheng took a picture of the gavel and shouted angrily:
"Master Li, if you are rude, don't blame me for punishing you for disturbing the court!"
"Guard Zhan, take Mr. Li down to the court to rest."
The old man was about to be dragged out of the court, but he suddenly knelt down in the tunnel and said: "Please, Mr. Bao, let me watch the trial. I know I was wrong."
When Bao Zheng saw him kneeling in front of him, he quickly walked down the court, helped him up and said, "Master Li, please don't do this..."
Seeing Bao Qingtian coming down from the hall in person, the onlookers immediately started talking:
"Who is this old man? Do you think he is Li Jia's father?"
"This man is incredible. He is Li Tang, the transfer envoy between Zhejiang and Zhejiang. He is in charge of more than a dozen states. He is also a high official in the border areas."
"Good guy, then this is an upright official. His son is not like these dandies in the capital, who parade around the city with a bunch of losers every day."
"Otherwise, how could Li Jia be easily beaten to death by Cao Gou?"
"An honest official? You have to deal with it. He is not corrupt and has set a moral example, but he is cruel to us people. You have never been to Zhejiang and Zhejiang. You will know if you do..."
At this time, Bao Zheng had returned to the plaque of "Mingjing Gaohang", and the others also returned to their respective places.
It's just that old man Li looked at Du Shiniang with fire in his eyes. Judging from his expression, he seemed to hate Du Shiniang even more than Cao Bin.
There was also a big bump about three inches high on the back of Cao Bin's head, which made Du Shiniang feel distressed and kept asking for help.
Bao Zheng paused and asked, "Cao Bin, do you need a doctor?"
Cao Bin quickly shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter. I'm fine. Mr. Bao can continue to investigate the case."
What a joke, now is the time to pursue victory, how can we stop midway? If something goes wrong again, wouldn't that be causing trouble for ourselves?
To prove that nothing was wrong, he touched the big bag on the back of his head and grinned again.
Everyone was speechless for a while, not knowing whether to laugh or say "you deserve it".
Bao Zheng took the gavel again and said, "In that case, let's continue the trial."
"Du Yu, I want to ask you, Li Jia's father said that he has no hidden diseases, how do you explain it?"
Du Shiniang said: "Du Ya doesn't know whether what Mr. Li said is true or not, but I have indeed seen Li Jia get sick in the past year!"
Her meaning was very clear. Just because there were no hidden diseases in the past, it did not mean that there were no hidden diseases now. Li Tang had not seen his son for more than a year.
"Are there any other witnesses?"
Du Shiniang shook her head and said, "No!"
Bao Zheng suddenly frowned and felt embarrassed.
When Li Tang saw this, he quickly raised his hands and said, "Master Bao, this woman is in cahoots with Cao Bin. Her words cannot be trusted."
Du Shiniang's heart tightened and she suddenly became nervous. The old man finally got to the point.
Cao Bin sneered and said: "It is possible for me and anyone to be in cahoots with each other. If we show a little intimacy, let Master Bao think that we are in cahoots with each other."
"Du Yayi and I are not related, and we have no entangled interests. How could you tell that we are in cahoots?"
Li Tang said angrily: "You are hugging each other in public, and you still say that we have no intimate relationship? Maybe her bond of sale is in your hands."
Cao Bin said with a smile: "You can go find the contract to sell yourself. If you find it, I will lose."
In the past two days, he had asked Pang Yu to change Du Shiniang's status from a lowly status to a good status. Anyone who saw it would understand that she was already a free person.
"As for the cuddling you mentioned..."
With that said, he stood up and walked to Zhan Zhao. With his confused expression, he hugged him tightly, then kissed him fiercely, saying lovingly:
"Guardian Zhan, I like you."
Like a cat with exploded hair, Zhan Zhao instantly used force to push Cao Bin out. He wiped the saliva from his face fiercely, with a look on his face that he was worse than dead.
Cao Bin was thrown more than three feet away, and his bones fell apart. He struggled to get up with a look of embarrassment, spread his hands and said:
"Master Li, have you also seen that Guard Zhan and I are also working together?"
Li Tang's eyes widened angrily, pointing at Cao Bin and saying: "You, you, you..."
Then, he fainted with a "hiccup".
Cao Bin raised his hands to show his innocence and said, "Hey, everyone saw it. I didn't touch him. He fainted on his own!"
The onlookers burst into laughter. No one expected that such a lively scene could be seen in a trial.
Some married women were aggrieved by Zhan Zhao and felt that Cao Bin had tarnished their male god.
Bao Zheng was stunned and said: "Call the doctor! Wake up Mr. Li."
Then he stared at Cao Bin and said seriously: "You can argue reasonably in court, but you can't use your hands or feet. If you dare to be rude again, don't blame me for punishing you!"
Cao Bin quickly learned the lesson and said he couldn't do it anymore.
In fact, he wanted to kiss that big black face and feel like chasing stars, but unfortunately he didn't have the courage.
After a while, Li Tang came to his senses and shouted angrily:
"Du Yu is recanting her confession. According to the court rules, she must be punished with a rod. I ask Mr. Bao to impose the punishment."
Hearing this, Du Shiniang almost fainted.
Cao Bin's eyes were also filled with cold light and murderous intent.
The onlookers were extremely excited, especially the man, whose eyes were already glowing green.
You know, according to the laws of the Song Dynasty, when using a cane, you have to take off your pants and expose your buttocks.
If she really did that, Du Shiniang would only die.
Complaining without a pleading paper, filing a complaint at a higher level, stopping a sedan chair to complain, reversing the confession midway...
Regardless of whether you are justified or not, you must first kill the powerful stick, as few as twenty, as many as forty.
This is not the law of the Song Dynasty, but the old system left by the Taizu of this dynasty.
If the presiding judge tried the case in private and felt that the case was merciful, he would probably dispense with the killing stick and not be so harsh.
But now that the case is being heard in court, officials from the victim's family are demanding that the trial procedures be strictly followed, and even Bao Zheng can't refuse.
Seeing that Bao Zheng was silent, Li Tang immediately urged:
"Master Bao, what are you waiting for? Do you want to protect the criminal?"
At this time, Du Shiniang was full of fear. She stared at Bao Qingtian closely. If she really wanted to give the order, she would rush to the pillars of the room without hesitation, hit her head and commit suicide.
Bao Zheng gritted his teeth and was about to take a photo of the gavel, but Cao Bin quickly shouted:
"I'm not convinced. Du Ya is now neither the plaintiff nor the defendant. She is just a witness."
"If Mr. Bao hurt the witness like this, who would dare to testify if there is a murder case in the future?"
"From now on, everyone has nothing to do with themselves and just hangs up."
"Is there any justice in this Song Dynasty?"
"I hope Mr. Bao will think twice before you act. If you give this order, the Song Dynasty will be ruined and the country will be ruined!"
When Bao Zheng heard these words, the movements of his hands suddenly slowed down.
When Li Tang saw this, he immediately shouted:
"Bold Cao Bin, you dare to slander the imperial court? You have violated Taizu's old system. Do you want to rebel?"
