Perhaps because of his experience as a policeman, Shen Hao still retains many subconscious habits even though it has been almost ten years since he came to this world.
For example, Shen Hao has a natural sympathy for the common people at the bottom, and it is easier for him to take the things of the common people to his heart.
So much so that after the Li family's rebellion case was concluded, people in the guardhouse were either tremblingly considering whether they should take the initiative to admit their mistakes or quietly wipe their butts; or they were gloating about the misfortune while intensively looking for connections with the trustees in order to find a way out of the free " Find an official position in "Jia Zi Banner".
But few people think about how to deal with the innocent victims in unjust, false and wrong cases who need to be redressed after the case is over.
The laws of the Jingjiu Dynasty did have clauses explaining unjust, false and wrong cases, but there were no details. There was only a very general sentence: "Individual cases can be compensated accordingly according to the actual circumstances."
How much compensation will be given under what circumstances? How to compensate?
It didn’t say anything at all, it just let the “actually” responsible Yamen decide what to do.
I have to say that this legal provision is not so friendly to the victims of these unjust, false and wrongful cases, and it feels like you deserve your misfortune.
Tang Qingyuan said before that "play by the rules".
Shen Hao went to the case room to check. The most recent case of vindication within the jurisdiction of Licheng was seventy-eight years ago. An innocent man was accidentally killed in an unjust case of arson. After being found out, his family was given a hundred dollars. Two silver coins as compensation.
That's right, only one hundred taels, that's one life.
Not convinced? If you don't accept it, there's no place to cry. If you want to blame it, just blame yourself for your bad luck.
After Shen Hao came out of the desk room, he was full of complaints about the case seventy-eight years ago, and he was not prepared to handle it according to the above rules.
Only one hundred taels of silver can be paid to an wronged soul?
What is the concept of one hundred taels? It’s just equivalent to the normal yearly expenses of an ordinary family of three, that’s it? It was so inhumane and completely inoperable in Shen Hao's hands.
Back at the apartment, Shen Hao combined the unjust cases in his hands according to his own ideas, and listed out the compensation methods one by one.
"For those who died unjustly, those who still have living members of their families can be compensated according to the standard of one thousand taels of silver per life."
"Those who have no source of income can still apply for household registration at the Yamen, and the standards will be higher."
"Those who have been beaten into slavery, as long as they are still alive, will be immediately released from slavery and restored to civilian status. At the same time, they will be given compensation of 500 to 1,000 taels of silver depending on the situation."
"Send a notice of rehabilitation to the yamen where the ancestral homes of all rehabilitated innocent people are, and ask them to publicize it locally on their behalf."
Orders were passed out from Shen Hao's hands one after another. He was still leading the task of handling the Li family's rebellion against the command, so no one stood up to question this series of orders. After all, these compensations seemed unprecedentedly high, but in the final analysis, they were not That's too much. Xuan Qingwei never lacked money. As for household registration fields and the like, that was something the local government had to worry about.
The order was finally presented to Tang Qingyuan. Tang Qingyuan only said "You are kind-hearted" and approved it. After that day, under Shen Hao's urging, it took only half a day for these vindication orders to spread throughout all the cities within the Xuanqingwei jurisdiction of Licheng.
How many unjust, false and erroneous cases could the A-character flag have produced over the years?
Shen Hao and his people have sorted it out these days and found that Li Bing made a total of thirty-five unjust, false and wrong cases during his tenure as the general banner of the A-character Banner! Hundreds of lives were involved, and hundreds of families were destroyed.
...
Licheng, Yaxing.
This is the first place to receive Xuanqingwei's order of redress.
When the general manager of the dental shop read this order, he felt very uncomfortable. Because this order specified a long list, all of them were Lin family members involved in the original unjust case "Yunyang Smuggling Prohibited Materials Case."
There used to be more than 20 Lin family members, young and old, but now some have been sold and others have died, leaving only three people in Yahang. Two were sold relatively slowly because they had some cultivation, were martial slaves, and were of high value; one was a beauty and needed a long time to be trained, so it was not the best time to sell.
These three slaves have invested a lot of money in the dental industry. They originally wanted to make a lot of money, but now they can only think about it.
Consider these three people lucky.
In addition, the tooth shop also needs to give Xuan Qingwei a detailed explanation, which of the Lin family members sold in the tooth shop are dead and alive, and to whom they are sold, etc. If there is a link, is it correct? You have to speak out when you go to the Hao Ya shop.
Moreover, it is now a period of great turmoil in Li City. The Yanji knife in Xuanqingwei's hand is still dripping with blood and has not been sheathed. Who dares to jump out and seek death at this time?
"Follow the requirements of this order and do it quickly, that's all."
The steward sighed. He had no temper for Xuan Qingwei, so he could only admit that he was unlucky.
The news soon reached the hands of the last three members of the Lin family in Yaxing. Just like the dew coming after a long drought, the three people who were already desperate were instantly stunned. The excitement of being reborn became real from unreal, stimulating the three of them. The tears couldn't stop flowing.
"You are lucky. The eldest man of Xuanqing Guard helped you redress your rebellion and also gave you compensation. You can go to Xuanqing Guard to claim the specific amount. Take it. This is the identity slip issued by Yaxing. You You need this and another note from Xuan Qingwei to go to the Yamen to re-naturalize, both are indispensable, don’t lose them..."
I walked out of the dental shop feeling dizzy, holding a note, and when I looked back, it felt like a lifetime ago.
The two men and one woman are cousins. The two men are at the second level of Qi Refining and are the children of the third brother of the Lin family. The girl is Lin Xiner, the one who caused the whole case before, and is the only one still alive in the Lin family.
The three of them looked at each other with tears and sadness on their faces.
They were lucky enough to survive to the day of redress, but many people in their family had already turned into withered bones. Although justice has come, the price of being late is blood and tears.
An hour later, the three of them came out of the Xuanqing Guardhouse and went to the Yamen to re-register as civilians. Each of them had an extra three thousand taels in compensation.
It was originally possible to choose a household registration field at the Yamen, but none of the three knew how to farm, so they all took the money.
With this money, the three of them can live a relatively comfortable life even if they have no income.
"I asked them. My eldest father and the others were buried in a mass grave ten miles away from the city. They were all there, so they should be."
"I'm going to make some sacrifices, and let's go and tell the eldest father that someone has avenged our family's revenge on us."
"go together."
The three of them bought wine, meat, incense, candles, paper money, rented a carriage and left the city, and found a mass grave.
There are no tombstones in the mass graves, only old and new burial pits of various sizes. The scene is gloomy and desolate. Even if you want to worship, you can only kowtow to your relatives who are buried in unknown graves at the foot of the hill.
Coming down from the hill, Lin Xiner suddenly said: "I won't go back to Yunyang for the time being. I want to stay. I won't feel comfortable if I don't see Zhang Kuina's gang of thieves die tragically with my own eyes."
