"Master Liu, I don't know how the case is going."
Huang Yunwei said lightly, and at the same time, the attendant brought a big chair for her.
Seeing her sitting next to him to hear the trial, Huang Ziling's face regained its proud expression.
Liu Changqing sat back down and said, "Back to Madam, the matter is very clear. Huang Ziling bullied the villagers and colluded with the local government. The evidence is now conclusive."
"Really?" Huang Yunwei picked up the tea cup and took a sip, "But as far as I know, the villagers did not complain, so how can there be any conclusive evidence."
"Madam." Liu Changqing said seriously: "The reason why these people are like this is because they were threatened by Huang Ziling or bribed with a lot of money. His crime has been confirmed."
"Master Liu." Huang Yunwei put down the tea cup and said with deep meaning: "Why should we make a big deal out of some small matters? It's just a civil dispute. If the villagers don't file a complaint, it means that Huang Ziling has reached mediation with them. How can the government accept it? Woolen cloth."
"Is this a simple civil dispute?" Liu Changqing said righteously: "This is covering the sky with one hand and having no law!"
"Master Liu!" Huang Yunwei was a little angry: "Don't make the matter so serious! In my opinion, this case should be ended here. This will be good for everyone."
"Is Madam trying to protect Huang Ziling?" Liu Changqing asked directly.
"You!" Huang Yunwei was furious: "Liu Changqing, you should pay attention to your words when you speak and act!"
Liu Changqing was silent for a moment, then faced the hall and said: "In this case, after investigation, Huang Ziling repeatedly seized acres of land from ordinary people, and even raped women, bribed the government, and used coercion and inducement. In summary, the crime is inexcusable."
"Here comes someone! Capture him! Responsible for forty years and put him in jail!"
Hearing this, the guards on the left and right subconsciously glanced at Huang Yunwei, obviously hesitant.
With the king and his wife here, the scene can be imagined.
Seeing this, Liu Changqing was undoubtedly furious and said angrily: "This is my order! I won't execute it yet!"
"No!" At this moment, the guard had to move.
But just as they stepped forward to hold Huang Ziling down, Huang Yunwei stood up angrily: "Who dares to do this!?"
The guards paused again, feeling anxious and unsure of what to do.
"Madam!" Liu Changqing also stood up, looked at Huang Yunwei and said, "This is above the court! As the wife of the king, you should set an example for the country. Now, are you going to violate the laws of our country!"
"You!" This hat is not too small. Huang Yunwei didn't dare to wear it. She first stared at Liu Changqing with her almond-shaped eyes, then took a deep breath and said as calmly as possible: "Master Liu, if things get serious, it won't be good for everyone. benefit."
"This is not the scope of my consideration!" After Liu Changqing finished speaking, he pointed at Huang Ziling below: "Hit!"
"How dare you!" Huang Yunwei was furious: "Liu Changqing! How dare you ignore me!?"
"Madam!" Liu Changqing was equally angry: "The criminal is here, and he can't be punished! Unless Madam comes with the king's order! Otherwise, it is disturbing the court!"
"you you!"
"Hit me!" Liu Changqing ordered again.
His successive orders coupled with his righteousness, at this time, the guard could no longer hesitate and could only bite the bullet and pinned Huang Ziling to the ground with his left and right sticks down.
Under Qin's method, the stick touched the flesh with only a few blows, but Huang Ziling began to scream heartbreakingly: "Sister, save me! Sister, save me -"
Unexpectedly, the King's wife came to protect him, but it had no effect at all. The thirteen villagers kneeling below were already frightened, their heads touched the ground, and they were trembling.
Huang Yunwei was furious. In disbelief, she widened her beautiful eyes, pointed at Liu Changqing and said: "Liu Changqing, you, you are so brave!"
Liu Changqing remained silent.
The sticks continued. After forty boards, Huang Ziling's skin and flesh were already torn and he was dying. "Sister, save me..."
Seeing her brother being beaten like this with her own eyes, how could Huang Yunwei not feel distressed? She couldn't help but staggered and took two steps back.
As a result, Liu Changqing turned a blind eye. After the punishment, he directly ordered: "Detain him! Put him in jail!"
"No!" The guards took the order and carried Huang Ziling away, one on the left and the other on the right.
Huang Yunwei came back to her senses, her beautiful eyes were already reddish, and she glared at Liu Changqing fiercely.
The latter's expression did not change, he stood up and bowed respectfully: "I wonder if Madam has any other instructions."
"Hmph!" Huang Yunwei snorted heavily and left angrily.
Looking at her back, Liu Changqing couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief. How could it be possible if there was no pressure at all.
At this time, the lady Wang who was kneeling below also said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty... you are really the Great Master Qingtian..."
The next day, Qin Palace, Chaoyi Hall.
The case file has been submitted to the Wang case. After understanding the specific situation, before Xiao Yuan could say anything, a minister stood up, bowed his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I think that the Huang Ziling case is just a civil dispute. , and reached a settlement with the villagers. Since the villagers no longer complain, the government has no reason to accept it. Liu Changqing's actions are really causing trouble out of nothing."
"Extremely ridiculous!" Liu Changqing sneered and retorted on the spot: "Huang Ziling seized acres of land from ordinary people, severely injured people, and almost destroyed his family. The evidence is conclusive. Is this still a civil dispute?"
"Furthermore, if it hadn't been for the king's order to investigate this case, would Huang Ziling have cared about the other twelve townsfolk? He would never do it, and these people would only suffer unjust injustice!"
"It's because he was found that he wanted to bribe the threat!"
After saying that, he faced Xiao Yuan again and said seriously: "Your Majesty, this is a bad question! It ignores the laws of the Qin Dynasty! If it is not severely punished, there will be no justice in the world!"
"Mr. Liu, are you exaggerating?" Xiao Yuan has already read the files on Wang's case. In his heart, he will take Huang Yunwei into consideration for Huang Ziling.
"Your Majesty!" As a result, Liu Changqing refused and said seriously: "Huang Ziling is a powerful family. It is for this reason that they dare to disregard the king's laws and trample on the government! If we don't deal with it, can everyone in this wealthy family do this? The law Where is it! Where is the public support!"
His words made the matter bigger and bigger. When Xiao Yuan heard the words, he couldn't help but take a deep breath and glanced at the ministers on the left and right.
Many people kept bowing slightly. Prime Minister Liu Yuzhi came out and said: "Huang Ziling is indeed guilty of this case, but fortunately, he has already compensated the losses of twelve other villagers. As for how to deal with it, Wei Chen suggested , the complaint of the civilian woman Wang should be the main one."
"Well..." Xiao Yuan thought about it and said, "For seizing other people's land, let's do whatever it takes. As for the Lanping County Magistrate, he bent the law for personal gain and was dismissed from his post and investigated."
After saying that, he seemed to be in a bad mood and waved away the court. Before leaving, he glanced at Liu Changqing.
