Chapter 537: God's Judgment Xu Yan is not afraid of sophistry!
Chapter 537: The God of Judgment Xu Qiu, no fear of sophistry!
Early next morning.
The rooster crows the dawn, and the morning glow fills the sky.
Wancheng, Royal Posthouse.
The envoys of the Yi and Di from all sides have already gotten up and rushed to the banquet hall on the second floor.
The delicacies have been prepared, all in buffet mode. Envoys from all parties can choose at will and then enjoy them in the dining area, which is very convenient.
At the northeast window, several people were enjoying delicious food. Among them, a young man was sitting in the middle, obviously the leader of these people.
This person was Tadun, the leader of Wuhuan. After taking a mouthful of mutton soup, he asked: "Didn't the guy called Man Chong yesterday say that Ashena would be put on trial today? Isn't it interesting to go with him later?"
Take a look?"
"certainly."
Nanlou nodded affirmatively and said softly: "Nanyang Hanting is bullying others. I want to see how he will try the case. Don't think this is a trivial matter. In fact, it is of great significance."
"That's right."
Tadun was convinced and agreed: "This matter is indeed not a trivial matter. If the Nanyang Han Court can handle it impartially and not favor the Han people, then we may believe what they say."
"But if the Han people insist on putting Ashina to death with their strong words, we may have to maintain a certain degree of caution towards Nanyang Hanting to prevent unexpected events."
Su Puyan frowned and said softly: "To be honest, I sent someone to find out yesterday. Bu Dugen and the others were drinking at Hongbin Tower. It was indeed Ashina who caused trouble and killed the Han people."
"If it is handled impartially, I am afraid that one life must be taken for another, and Ashina must be beheaded. However, after all, this matter involves national affairs, and I am afraid that even Tingwei may not really dare to do this."
"I also sent someone to inquire."
Immediately afterwards, another capable minister, Di, came up and lowered his voice: "It was Ashina who was teasing the girl first. When the girl refused, he killed her. The waiter in the restaurant stepped forward to stop him, but was seriously injured ten times.
The rest."
"The essence of this matter is that Ashina made trouble first and killed people later. If we really want to deal with it justly, Ashina must lose his life."
"and"
Speaking of this, the capable minister Di glanced around and saw that no one was paying attention, so he said: "I heard from the people in Wancheng that Man Chong is known as a cruel official, and even the princes and nobles are like the court captain Xu Qiu."
Not letting go is true selflessness."
"If my guess is correct, Bu Dugen is completely defeated this time. His Han generals will definitely not be able to escape Xu Xuan's sanctions, and may even implicate Bu Dugen himself."
Of course, Tadun knew what was going on, but he didn't care at all about the matter or whether Xu Xuan would handle it fairly. He only cared about one thing!
The attitude of the emperor.
In a sense, this matter involves communication between the two countries. Although Bu Dugen is obviously not at that level, after all, it is a foreign tribe with tens of thousands of troops and absolute sovereignty.
How the emperor will deal with him will determine how he will deal with himself, the Qiang and Hu, and even the Southern Barbarians, Wuling Barbarians and other tribes in the future.
The matter is not a big deal, but it can reflect His Majesty the Emperor's attitude towards foreign races. Whether he comes to show off his power or is he sincerely seeking peace, you will know once you try.
"Hurry up and eat."
Tadun drank the last sip of soup and exhaled: "Let's go and see the excitement."
Everyone nodded: "Okay."
And at the northwest corner.
Xianbei Kebi Neng took a deep breath and frowned, but he couldn't eat at all: "This guy Bu Dugen must have done this on purpose. He wants to let the major tribes disappoint the Han court and launch an attack on the Han Dynasty."
"He must have anticipated that we want to use the power of Nanyang Hanting to eliminate their brothers and rule the entire central Xianbei, otherwise he would never be so impulsive."
Xianbei in central China uses Bu Dugen, and Ke Bineng is the most powerful. Currently, Ke Bineng's power is far inferior to Bu Dugen, so he wants to use the power of Nanyang Hanting to clean up Bu Dugen and stabilize the situation.
one's own status.
even
Ke Bineng also wanted to become the second Tanshihuai. With the help of Nanyang Hanting, he gathered the power of the western, central and eastern Xianbei to become the real Xianbei king.
There was a strong man beside him, named Suo Nu, who was Ke Bineng's bodyguard: "Ah? No way, this guy Bu Dugen actually dares to do such a trick? This guy is really bad."
call-
Kebi Neng took a long breath and kept thinking in his mind: "Well, it must be like this, it must be! Suo slave, is there any news about the things you asked to inquire about?"
"kindness."
Suo Nu nodded: "The news has spread in Wancheng now. It is easy to find out. It was Ashina who killed four people in Hongbin Tower and seriously injured more than ten people. There are many witnesses. This is an ironclad case.
There is no room for sophistry.”
"None of that matters."
Kebineng knew in his heart that Bu Dugen was deliberately provoking.
At this moment, he didn't care at all whether it was a solid case or not, but His Majesty the Emperor's attitude towards the matter: "Eat quickly and go to the Tingwei Mansion after eating. If this matter is not handled properly, something big may happen."
"good."
Suo Nu hurriedly took two mouthfuls of rice, and when he stood up to leave, he took the opportunity to drink a bowl of milk tea: "Chanyu, wait. Wait for me, wait for me!"
The two of them left the Royal Post House and followed the flow of people all the way to Tingwei's Mansion.
really.
At this time, there was already a sea of people outside Tingwei's mansion.
Not only many Han people gathered around, but also many Yi and Di people gathered around. Through an unknown number of people, I could hear the cries of the victims’ family members and the comments from people around them:
"These barbarians were so ruthless. Such a young girl lost her life like this. If she falls into Xu Tingwei's hands this time, she will definitely lose her life."
"That's right! These barbarians are so ignorant that they dare to commit evil on our land. Have they forgotten that we are the real owners of this land?"
"This is simply unreasonable. Let them know this time that no matter what your status is, as long as you stand on the land of the Han, you must abide by the laws of the Han."
"I believe that the imperial court will never ignore us ordinary people. If the barbarians dare to make trouble, I am willing to go to the battlefield and fight to the death with these guys."
"Anyone who offends our strong men will be killed no matter how far away they are!"
"Yes, you must believe your Majesty!"
"The big man today is no longer the big man before."
"The Great Han Dynasty will revive from now on!"
"."
When Ke Bi Neng came to him, the Han people gave way and kept a respectful distance. Some even pointed fingers and openly insulted him, which made the slaves want to fight with fists and kicks to kill these ignorant people.
"Lock slave!"
If Kebi hadn't been able to stop him, he would have really caused a disaster.
What Ke Bi could worry about finally happened.
He had never doubted the fairness of the Han court in Nanyang, but he was afraid that the prejudices of the common people and the long-standing suspicion and distrust of the Han Dynasty by the barbarians from all over the world would openly explode at this moment.
I can still stop the lock slave, but what about others? Will they be so calm?
Kebi can be unknown.
Just when he was worried, suddenly a familiar voice sounded:
"Chanyu—!"
It's Dong Zhao.
Kebi could tell it immediately.
Xu Huang initially escorted him into the country, but Dong Zhao was responsible for receiving him.
According to common sense, at this time, Dong Zhao's mission has ended, how could he suddenly appear again?
Ke Bineng hurriedly turned his head and looked: "Gongren, why is it you?"
Dong Zhao did not hide it, and said bluntly: "Of course I am afraid that you will think too much, so I came here to accompany you. After all, ordinary people are just ordinary people, and their vision is a bit short-sighted. I hope Shanyu will not care about it."
"They are not targeting you, they are just targeting the perpetrators. The court will also send people to protect your safety and strive to resolve the matter satisfactorily."
Ke Bineng secretly breathed a sigh of relief and marveled at Nanyang Hanting's reaction speed, but he was still a little worried and hurriedly asked: "I don't know about this, does your Majesty know?"
Dong Zhao shook his head: "I don't know too well. You should know that my official position is not high. I am just an official subordinate to Da Honglu. It is difficult to see your majesty in ordinary times."
"But I believe it"
Dong Zhao said with certainty and certainty: "This matter will definitely give you and the people of the Han Dynasty a satisfactory answer."
Ke Bineng was dubious: "In that case, let's wait for the result."
Dong Zhao waved his hands and said: "Follow me. You will have a special seat to listen to Xu Tingwei's trial. If there is any injustice, you can raise it at any time. Xu Tingwei is the most valued talent by your Majesty. He is fair and impartial and only treats the matter.
No one."
Ke Bi Neng nodded: "Okay."
Not long after.
Xu Xuan, wearing official uniform, walked to the main seat, raised the gavel, and the sound of a snap made the whole venue calm down.
His bright eyes were like a natural light, and his awe-inspiring righteousness instantly spread throughout the venue. Even the wailing family members of the victims subconsciously stopped and looked up at Xu Xuan, as if expecting the other party's most just verdict.
.
"Bring someone to commit the crime!"
Without any nonsense, Xu Gong gave the order sonorously.
"Bring someone to commit—!"
Follow along with the order.
Ashina, Budugen and others were brought up.
but
Although they are human criminals, this group of people still looks arrogant and arrogant.
Ashina, in particular, raised her neck, raised her belly, squinted at Xu Zhuan, and shouted sternly: "Hey, officer above, can you guarantee that you are absolutely fair and impartial?"
Xu Xuan glanced at the man below him, and after listening to the translation of the person next to him, he nodded affirmatively: "I am a court official, and it is the most just place in this dynasty. You can rest assured about this."
"very good!"
Ashina nodded with satisfaction, and then said bluntly: "Last night, the little girl who served food tried to steal the money I put on the table, but I caught her with my own hands. In the end, she accused me of doing something wrong to her.
?”
"snort!"
Ashina snorted angrily: "I am indeed a bit lustful, but I am not interested in Han women. They are too delicate and far less sexual than our grassland women, so they are not fun."
"In anger, I slapped the woman. Maybe it was a bit too strong. After all, she was a warrior on the battlefield. I couldn't stop her and killed her by mistake."
"But who would have thought that all those guys from Hongbin Tower would rush up one by one, holding various weapons in their hands, and actually want to besiege us!"
"I, the Protector Ashina, was so eager that I had no choice but to take action against them. As a result, I used too much force and killed three more people and seriously injured more than ten others."
"While I deeply apologize for this, I hope Hongbin Tower can give you an explanation. What exactly are you trying to do? It's not like we won't pay!"
Damn it!
It's good that a bad person complains first and then bites back.
Not to mention the melon-eating people outside, even the barbarians from all over the world couldn't help but curse secretly:
"It's so shameless. It was Ashina who molested women first, but he actually said that they stole his money."
"I have never seen such a shameless person! The faces of the Xianbei people have been completely disgraced by him."
"Then if the witness is present, can he still rebel?"
"."
However.
Xu Qiu, the leader, was extremely calm. He had seen too many people who were messing around in court.
These people have always been those who will not shed tears until they see the coffin, and will never look back until they hit the wall.
To deal with them, you must find some irrefutable evidence, otherwise they will never admit it.
Xu Xuan said tentatively: "There are so many people here, do you still want to deny it?"
Ashina had already prepared a response: "Those people are all from Hongbinlou. They are all working together, which is not enough evidence. If Xu Tingwei really takes this as evidence, then I have nothing to say and am willing to be punished, even if
One life for one life is not a bad idea."
"but."
When the conversation changed, Ashina said coldly: "This Tingwei Mansion is not the most fair and just. You are using your power to bully others because you just want to attack our tribes from all directions."
When the people below heard this, they were all furious. If it weren't for the officers and soldiers forming a human wall to protect them, they would really have rushed up to beat them:
"You're talking nonsense! You bastard! You're like a dog and can mess around."
"It's so shameless, you lowly barbarians, go to hell."
"Do you think we Han people are the same as you? We are like dogs."
"."
Faced with the constant abuse, Xu Xuan gave a loud bang and shouted: "Quiet! As long as I am here, this matter will have its own conclusion. Ashina is right, the people in Hongbin Tower are indeed
There is the possibility of channeling one qi, but this is not enough proof."
This moment!
Not to mention the people of the Han Dynasty, even Ashina himself couldn't help but be stunned.
He really didn't expect that Xu Qiu would agree with his point of view so easily, abandoning the irrefutable evidence that could have directly concluded the case!
Therefore, Ashina simply went a step further: "In that case, let's ask the Tingwei to finalize the case."
Xu Xuan waved his hand to interrupt: "Wait a minute! Their words are not credible, but your own defense is also not credible. I still need to personally determine what the facts are."
"Someone is coming!"
Without any hesitation, Xu Zhu shouted loudly: "Go to the food table."
The guard bowed and held his hands in his hands: "Here."
Not long after.
A food table was carried into the hall.
Xu Xuan waved his hand to signal Ashina and said, "General, can you reconstruct the scene for us, how the maid stole your money, and how you committed manslaughter."
Although Ashina didn't know what kind of medicine Xu Qiu sold in his gourd, this matter was too simple for him and there was no difficulty at all.
Glancing at Bu Dugen, he saw that the other party nodded in affirmation. Ashina did not refuse and sat directly in front of the food table, nodding: "Okay, no problem, I'll hit hard, you have to find a woman who can withstand the beating.
"
Xu Xuran said: "Why, the general is so conscious now, can he still commit manslaughter?"
Ashina understood what Xu Qiu meant: "I can only try my best to control it, but I'm not sure whether it will kill people."
Xu Xuan waved his hand to indicate that the woman could proceed, and said softly: "Let's begin."
Later.
The woman held a tray and walked towards Ashina. As usual, she squatted sideways and prepared to serve the food, but just when the woman was about to stop and leave.
Ashina moved and immediately grabbed the woman's hand and shouted: "What are you going to do? Steal my money in front of me?"
"court death!"
Snapped!
Ashina slapped her directly, knocking the woman to the ground.
Then, before the woman could turn over, he held her down, raised his huge fists, and prepared to strike at her. He kept cursing and saying that the woman was a money thief.
Have to admit it.
Ashina's actions and words really look like that, they are very similar, and the two parties do not understand each other's language. No one can tell whether he is greedy for beauty or trying to steal money.
As soon as this set of actions came out, the survivors who served the food became uneasy. Even they themselves were not sure what was going on.
As for what happened later, he was even more confused and confused. He only said that Ashina killed someone, and he didn't even know why he killed someone. Ashina's reason was also very reasonable, to protect himself and the Chan Yu.
What a god!
There are simply no flaws to speak of.
Xu Xuan waved his hand to signal the two sides to stop, and then asked: "General, are you sure that this set of actions is what happened last night, right?"
"this"
Naturally, Ashina wasn't sure, so he didn't say anything for sure: "It's probably like this."
Xu Xuan said coldly: "Then you can carefully recall the memory. If it is not enough, you can do it again. It must be performed according to the original version without any mistakes."
Ashina carefully recalled what happened yesterday. He had already kept in mind the precautions Shanyu had given him, and there should not have been any mistakes.
but
To be on the safe side, Ashina performed it three or five times before saying, "That's right, that's it. It can't be wrong."
Xu Juanen nodded: "Very good, in that case, let's analyze it calmly. It is true that the witness may be false, but the physical evidence cannot be false."
Ashina was stunned and had no idea what Xu Xuan was going to do.
The next second.
Then he saw Xu Zhuan ordering people to carry the deceased up.
Then, he got up and left the table, came to the hall, lifted up the white cloth covering it with his own hands, and said softly: "May I ask General Ashina if this person is the woman who stole your money yesterday?"
Ashina nodded affirmatively: "Yes, it is this person."
"very good."
Xu Xuan let out a long breath, then squatted down, slowly raised the woman's arm, and opened her sleeves. There were clearly visible scratches and bruises caused by violence.
Xu Qiu, who is proficient in criminal investigation and handling of cases, is naturally also a master of criminal investigation. He can use some subtle traces to restore the true process of committing the crime at that time.
The reason why he asked Ashina to act it out first was to interrupt the possibility of him regretting it in advance. After three or five times, there was no memory error problem.
"Look, everyone, the scratches on this girl's arm were left by Ashina when she arrested someone. The bruises are on the bottom and the scratches are on the top. This proves that when the girl stretched out her hand, Ashina had already
Take action."
"As for Ashina's performance just now, it was clear that the woman relied on the cover of her long sleeves to try to take away the money. He discovered it and then reached out to grab her. Such scratches should be on the bottom, not on the top."
"This proves it!"
Xu Xuan's voice was loud and he shouted sternly: "Ashina is lying. He took action in advance when the girl was serving the food, not after."
"I"
Before Ashina could open his mouth to defend, Xu Qiu said again: "This can also be judged from the scene. If it is after the food is served, there should not be that dish on the table."
"And the facts also prove that the dish that was knocked to the ground was still some distance away from Ashina's dining table. It also proves that Ashina attacked the girl before serving the dish."
Ashina hurriedly argued: "I knocked the dish to the ground, isn't that okay?"
"lie!"
Xu Xuan looked calm and nodded slowly: "If it were touched on the food table, it would leave a lot of traces, but unfortunately, there is no trace of that dish on your food table."
"Eight-treasure porridge is a very viscous porridge with very poor fluidity. If it is accidentally knocked over on the food table, it will definitely leave traces."
“But it happens”
Xu Zhuan spoke righteously and stared at Ashina: "Most of the eight-treasure porridge was spilled on the ground, and the bowl containing the eight-treasure porridge is also on the left side of the food table. How did you knock it there?"
At this moment, Ashina's eyes had begun to wander, and he suddenly felt very weak. After all, he could not consider such detailed issues at all.
When he glanced at Bu Dugen, Bu Dugen also had a confused look on his face. He also did not expect that Xu Qiu, the Tingwei of Nanyang Hanting, observed so carefully and pushed away without leakage.
"how?"
Xu Xuan knew that the other party was already panicked, and immediately launched a psychological offensive: "Are you trying to think of a way to defend yourself? Don't bother, I still say what I said. Certification can be faked, but physical evidence obviously cannot."
"I can deduce what happened that day through the injuries on the body of the deceased and the traces at the scene. Did you molest the girl or was you caught stealing money? You can deceive others, but you cannot deceive me."
"I"
Ashina's eyes were wandering and her mind was shaken.
He didn't even dare to look at each other with Xu Xuan, for fear of being exposed by the other party.
However, Xu Zhuan, who was proficient in criminal investigation, had already seen through everything and said coldly: "You were greedy for the girl's beauty, but the other party did not cooperate, so you were furious, so you killed her."
"Then, the attendants who came to calm things down came and killed you. In anger, you fought, killing three people and seriously injuring more than ten people. You didn't care about the lives of the Han people at all, you just wanted to satisfy your own animal desires, right?
"
Ashina was about to collapse. She simply opened her eyes wide and shouted sternly: "So what? She is just a Han girl. It is an honor for her to be favored by me. She dares not to cooperate. She is simply looking for death."
