Thank you Shenchu Juju for generously rewarding me.

After reciting a few articles, Su Jin raised his hands to the ugly-looking Magistrate Zhu and said, "Does your Majesty know where these articles come from?"
Magistrate Zhu snorted and did not answer. Su Jin smiled slightly and said: "This is the supplement to the criminal statistics issued by the imperial court in the first year of Kangding. The full text has five articles totaling 572 words. The common people only recited three of them and the rest.
I don’t think I need to carry it anymore.”
How could Magistrate Zhu not know about this clause? In the first year of Kangding, the Ministry of Punishment issued five additional clauses to the Song Dynasty Criminal System for the sake of fairness in judicial trials. This is a clause that parents and officials like them must understand. When Su Jin opened his mouth, he knew it was broken.
This dirty boy took advantage of me.
Yan Biyun, who was listening in the hall, smiled and secretly praised Su Jin for his intelligence and ability to quickly find countermeasures according to the situation in the hall. Not everyone can have such intelligence; he couldn't help but think more highly of Su Jin.
.
Xiao Sui'er tugged at the corner of Yan Biyun's clothes and asked softly: "Dong Yan's family, what are you talking about?"
This sentence was exactly what everyone around him was asking. Several big shopkeepers and everyone listening quickly pricked up their ears to hear it.
Yan Biyun explained softly: "What Mr. Su memorized was the article in the "Song Xingtong" of the Song Dynasty. The main idea is to prevent malpractice for personal gain. If the case involves relatives and old friends in the family, the presiding officer must avoid the change. This Mr. Yamen is the prefect.
My lord’s biological son is involved in the case, how can the father participate in the trial?”
Everyone suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the Shaodong family wanted to ask the Yameni master if he was the son of the prefect. It turned out to be for the later arrangement; the Shaodong family was very thoughtful.
They didn't know that Su Jin himself was sweating. Fortunately, Su Xiaoguan had a wide range of knowledge, including collections of scriptures and official documents. He was a bookworm, so Su Jin was able to
He was able to mobilize all the knowledge for backup; of course, he had also thought about it. If the situation was not right, he would expose the Scarface Black Seventy-One case in public. No matter there was no evidence, he would have to drag a few people down anyway. Renzong was an honest official who was nosy.
Quite often, if trouble breaks out, there will always be someone to take care of it.
The spectators and common people bystanders understood what Su Jin meant after being pointed out by someone knowledgeable. There was a buzzing sound and they started pointing and talking.
Zhu Shiyong was filled with resentment in his heart. He thought that ordinary people understood the laws of the imperial court, but almost no one followed such laws in actual trials. However, he unexpectedly came up with such an unusual person, who just grabbed his pigtails. This time, he was passive.
Terrible, I wanted to express my attitude immediately and let the magistrate and others preside over the trial, but things will be difficult to handle later; today's small case of beating someone is just a cover, the real highlight is later, these same magistrates and magistrates will preside over the case.
Bu Jun doesn't know the details, so he definitely can't let them preside over it. Now it seems that he can only throw away the sesame seeds and pick up the watermelon and give up trying this assault case to prevent him from talking nonsense.
Having made up his mind, the prefect raised the gavel high and banged it three times to calm the scene, and shouted: "Quiet, no noise in the lobby."
The government officials have long been accustomed to cooperating with the magistrate. At this moment, they were glaring at the buzzing crowd outside. The common people quickly silenced. Seeing that the magistrate was feeling depressed at this moment, wouldn't it be wrong if they were dragged in and hit with dozens of boards to vent his anger?
It is an unreasonable disaster to be stabbed while lying down.
"Prisoner Su Jin, I think what you said is the truth. I really shouldn't be the judge to try your case of assaulting someone in the street. However, this case is not the case that I am presiding about today. I will follow the authority when the matter is urgent.
Therefore, it cannot be judged by others." Zhu Shiyong looked at Su Jin and said quietly.
Su Jin felt a chill in his heart and secretly shouted: "No, it's finally here."
Everyone frowned, not knowing what the prefect meant. Several owners of the chamber of commerce who were sitting aside and listening had proud smiles on their faces. The drama is about to begin. Su Jin, Su Jin, how are you waiting to die?
Su Jin thought for a while and said loudly: "The common people don't understand what you are saying. What the common people care about is just this fight case. Should I ask the chief official to give the common people a fair judgment? I don't say that I have no fault, but the young master in the Yamen is insulting others."
Previously, the common people were angry and took action. According to the laws of the Song Dynasty, they didn’t know what crime they should be punished for?"
Zhu Shiyong thought to himself: You have a good idea. I have already told you that there are other cases to try against you, but you can pretend to be confused and cling to this small case to your death. You want to ask me to change someone to try it.
I'll give you a jelly bean to eat.
Thinking of this, Zhu Shiyong said: "The fight between Su Jin, a native of Luzhou Prefecture, and Zhu Tianshun, a scholar of Luzhou Prefecture, actually happened suddenly, and each was at fault; but the circumstances were minor and not enough to be considered. There is no need to dwell too much on this case.
Su Jin, the one who hurt others, apologized and gave him twenty strokes of the cane on his buttocks as a warning. Zhu Tianshun's words were inappropriate and he insulted others first, so he gave him ten strokes of the cane on his buttocks as a punishment."
Everyone was in an uproar. They didn't expect Zhu Shiyong to have such an attitude. He originally thought he would punish Su Jin severely, but he didn't expect to let Su Jin go so lightly and skillfully.
Zhu Tianshun opened his mouth, looked at his father in disbelief through the gap in the white gauze, and cursed in his heart: "Old man, are you confused? In the end, even I was beaten, couldn't you change your career to become an upright official?
You old man has collected so many bribes and married so many concubines, is it too late to change your career now?"
Of course, Zhu Shiyong could not let his son be beaten, and said in a deep voice: "You can avoid the cane punishment by paying a fine. The fine of three sticks for each cane will be paid into the official treasury. You two can choose on your own."
Only a fool would be willing to have his pants taken off and spanked in public. Su Jin said without hesitation: "The common people are willing to be punished."
At that moment, Xiao Sui'er quickly took out 60 guan and presented it to him. Naturally, Zhu Tianshun had to go through the motions and pretended to have 30 guan donated by his family. The master accepted the fine and registered them one by one.
Su Jin turned around and bowed to Zhu Tianshun, whose face was covered with gauze, and said: "Master Zhu, I have offended you a lot and I have been too harsh. I am here to apologize to you."
Zhu Tianshun was so angry that he was beaten in vain by this kid, but his father had already handed down the sentence and could not make a fuss in court, so he had to swallow his anger and snort in response.
Su Jin smiled slightly, leaned forward and whispered in Zhu Tianshun's ear: "Next time you see me on the road, you must walk around him, otherwise be careful of your dog teeth..."
Zhu Tianshun's eyes widened and he jumped violently. He pulled the wound on his face until it hurt, and shouted: "You...you straight bitch, you wait for me."
Su Jin chuckled and said, "It's fine if Mr. Zhu doesn't want to forgive me. Don't roar in court, otherwise I'm afraid you will really get slapped with a slap in the face."
Zhu Tianshun was about to go crazy, and Yu waited for a retort. When his eyes met his father's stern gaze, the eggplant wilted like frost. If the fuss continued, his father might treat him to a meal of stir-fried bamboo shoots before he could get home.
Meaty.
Su Jin smiled and raised his hands in the court hall and said: "The magistrate is really the great master Qingtian who is still alive. He is wise in handling cases and does not show favoritism. The common people are all bound to obey. From today on, the common people must abide by the law and be strict with themselves. They will be our house."
The state's first-class good citizens have lived up to the magistrate's kindness in discipline."
Magistrate Zhu smiled and said: "Very good, very good."
Su Jin said: "Common people, please leave!" He turned around and left.
Magistrate Zhu laughed loudly and said, "Where are you going?"
Su Jin turned around and said, "Isn't this case settled? The common people can go home."
Magistrate Zhu laughed again. The laughter gradually turned low and turned into a gloomy sneer. He just heard him yell loudly: "Left and right! Give me Su Jin, the criminal who has no moral integrity and is forcing people to die."
Take it."
Several government servants rushed up like tigers and wolves, grabbing Su Jin hard and twisting him down to the cold bluestone floor in the hall, unable to raise his head.dd
