Chapter 100

In Lijia village, someone once slapped Li severely. Li Luoyang didn't say anything at that time when he knew it, but he soon slapped back and paid back in less than two days. The man's name is Li Pingwu. Now he is lying in Yizhuang, Anning County, more honest than Li Chengcheng.

Of course, Li Luoyang won't tell Zhang Jiong the whole story of this matter, but in his heart, he has long regarded Li Chengzhen as his real person and can't be bullied by others.

"What do you promise?" Zhang Jiong scoffed at Li Luoyang's threat. If it weren't for Li Luoyang's great weight in Liu Ting's heart, would Zhang Jiong wait until today? As the saying goes, the broken county magistrate, but in fact, the petty officials under the county magistrate do evil, even more terrible than the county magistrate. After all, there is another saying called "the county magistrate is better than the present one".

The prison has never been a comfortable place, and the cells in Anning county are no exception. In this era when the Imperial Palace has not been able to use the toilet, the cell environment is far worse than the imagination of future generations. The words "filthy" are not enough to describe. The only feeling of being imprisoned is that life is better than death.

Fortunately, the nerves of people in this era are also very tough. They are used to smelling the peculiar smell in the cell. There is nothing wrong with the cross flow of sewage on the ground. The only uncomfortable thing is that the moisture in this semi basement space is serious, and there are water droplets on the wall.

This feeling makes Li Cheng, who has stayed by the stove all his life, very uncomfortable. His body has long been used to high temperature and dryness, so he felt as if he had been immersed in ice water in less than an hour. Fortunately, he is still in his prime. Even if he feels unwell, his body has no problems.

This morning, he had just arrived at the blacksmith's shop from Liao's courtyard. Just as he was about to open the door, he saw a group of vicious yamen servants surround him, impolitely lock him up and throw him directly into the prison.

Because he was not good at words, Li Chengzhen hardly resisted or argued in the whole process. He didn't even ask why he wanted to detain him, but he was as honest as ever. Even the Yamen escorting him felt that Li Chengzhen's silence was a little terrible. They were not afraid of Li Chengzhen's plot, but felt that Li Chengzhen's reaction was not like a normal person, And like a madman.

Those who beat and scold others are not crazy, but dandies. Those who are clearly not dumb but like to speak with their eyes may be crazy, because they are so insane that they can't remember how to use their organs.

However, the Yamen guards are not really worried. It's better for a silent suspect like Li Chengzhen to put the evidence before the court. Even if the trial is over after promotion, the rest is to be detained and executed after autumn. If the family doesn't want the suspect to suffer in prison, they can run several times a month to give some money, and the prison head can make a small profit.

The death penalty review system established in the Li and Tang Dynasties was gradually abolished with the continuation of the Wu and Zhou dynasties. Due to various factors, more and more prisoners are eligible for the execution of the death penalty. If a lot of food is wasted according to the review system of Li and Tang Dynasties, why should a mortal give them food? The grain in the Imperial Granary is also purchased from farmers, Why waste it on a dying man?

Therefore, the review of the death penalty in the Wu and Zhou dynasties can be carried out only with the approval of the government, unless there are family members who stand up and shout grievances and want to continue to fight the lawsuit, but in fact, this situation is not much, about half of it. The rest is basically that the county government reports it to the government, goes through the motions, and then waits until a suitable day is selected after autumn, Even many prisoners on death row don't even have family members, or their family members are unwilling to show up. After the body and head are verified, they are often thrown into the random burial post outside the city, so that he lives and dies.

In theory, Li Chengzhen should have family members. Even if he doesn't have family members, there are neighboring villagers, but he killed his own village head and clan head. The prison head completely lost hope after hearing about the case committed by Li Chengzhen. A person who dares to kill the clan head basically doesn't have a head. He has a family, but in order to continue to survive in the family in the future, These families must also make a choice - whether it is a dying suspect or their future life? Any village leader will have a great influence in the place under his jurisdiction, especially Li Baoshan, who is both a clan leader and a village leader. In the village, he should be "a man of nine words". Even he dares to kill. In the end, it is not only the murderer who is unlucky. Maybe the murderer's family will suffer losses for several generations in the future unless they find a way to move away.

Based on his own experience, the prison leader decided not to waste time and energy on Li Chengzhen. He was originally a live mute and it was difficult to communicate. In addition, he had not been in court yet. If a word didn't agree and hurt him, it would be difficult to explain at that time.

He was not remembered by the prison head. For Li Chengzhen, he didn't know whether it was good or bad. In short, he stayed quietly in the cell until Li Bai and Li Luoyang appeared at the gate of the prison.

In fact, Li Bai and the prison head should be "his own people". Everyone will talk and laugh when they meet at ordinary times, but when it comes to meeting Li Chengchen, the prison head is not very happy.

"But he can't. He's a murder suspect, and he killed the village chief."

From top to bottom, Murakami is not a court official, but from bottom to top, Murakami is also a court official, which is different from petty officials such as Li Bai and Zhang Jiong.

"Here, please forgive me. Uncle honest is a good man. Although he has no relatives, he treats me very well." Li Luoyang smiled and stretched out his small hand, holding a universal ticket - silver.

Copper is so worthless that it costs 300 yuan for a bucket of rice. 300 yuan is already an old part. It's inconvenient. It's better to use silver. A small piece can be worth thousands of yuan. It's just suitable for this kind of scene.

The cell head skillfully pinched the silver ingot with his fingernails, looked at the traces on the surface, slightly jawed his head, then stared at Li Luoyang as if he had just reacted and said, "speaking of it, are you the child prodigy who wrote the funny talk of Liaozhai?"

"I can't talk about child prodigy, but I did write the story." Li Luoyang was a little modest, but he was meditating on Pu dada. Don't blame him. He will correct your name in the future.

"Oh, it's really you. I finally saw a living man today." as soon as the old man was happy, he slipped the silver into his belt. Fans are fans, the rules are rules, and the prison will not let go of the money that should be collected.

"Officer, can we go in and see people?"

"Go, I'll take you in!" the prison head smiled and waved with great momentum.
