Chapter 1944 Kill the chicken to warn the monkey
Wei Jingxuan said: "What about this official? Everything this official does is based on His Majesty's will and criminal law. If you are not convinced, hold back for this official, and then dare to have an opinion, this official will be charged with contempt for the court. , I'll add another 100 boards for you."
She didn't even want to take 100 big boards, let alone 200 big boards, Qiu Xiaoru didn't dare to speak.
In order to avoid trouble and get the money as soon as possible, and to serve as a wake-up call to the villagers in Quanlihua Village, Wei Jingxuan first sent someone to send them back to Lihua Village, intending to get the fine first.
Of course, those who have money will pay, and those who have no money will use the land to pay, or go out to borrow, and the fines will be quickly collected.
After the was collected, the Xuanwu guards did not leave, but set up several benches in the place where the villagers of Lihua Village were meeting, and called all the people of Lihua Village over before the execution began.
This is Helian Rongjiu's idea. If high-yield grains are circulated to other countries, it will pose a huge threat to their countries.
Lihua Village has the most high-yield food and is also the focus of nearby villages. Every move is being watched. In order to avoid this happening again, he wants to give them a severe warning.
At this time, all the people who were going to be beaten were all lying on the bench, all shy and shameless, and kept their heads down.
Zeyu also came this time, looking at the onlookers and said loudly: "Collaborating with the enemy and treason is a serious crime, Gao Shi and Mo Ershan have been sentenced to Ling Chi's execution and beheading respectively, and their actions have also affected their families. "
"Except for children under the age of fourteen, everyone will be subject to a hundred big board. If they can live, they will live, but if they can't live, it is their life. Everyone should take this as a warning. After this warning, if this kind of thing happens again next time. If something goes wrong, it can’t be solved by taking a hundred boards, it’s also possible to be beaten to death.”
After saying that, he ordered the execution.
"what!"
"Ah, it hurts so much, hit it lightly."
"It hurts to death, please take it easy."
"It hurts."
"Gao Shi, you are a scourge!"
"Mo Ershan, even if you are dead, I will curse you too!"
…
For a while, the only sound of the board hitting people and the sound of begging and cursing could be heard at the meeting place.
Most people have never seen such a scene. Seeing that everyone's buttocks were beaten with blood even when they were wearing clothes, they were immediately scared to the ground and dripping with cold sweat.
When some children saw the bloodstains, they were soon scared to tears, and shivered while hugging their parents.
Li is getting old, so he is not too afraid of this kind of scene. Seeing that the second room of the Mo family is not among the executioners, he asks curiously, "Little master, how did the second room of the Mo family survive this crisis?"
Murong Lingran said: "It's very simple, they all helped me grow high-yield crops, and this time they were indeed wronged. Your Majesty has spared them extravagantly. I just heard from Lord Wei, so I just punished them. They are only five taels of silver each."
"So it is." Li Zheng breathed a sigh of relief.
Now, among those who are executed, basically they have never touched high-yield grain from beginning to end.
Murong glanced at the villagers present, and had to say that Helian Rongjiu's method of killing chickens and showing off monkeys was very useful. Now everyone looked terrified, but it was a little bloody.
Soon, those who were implicated were executed. Wei Jingxuan ignored them, said a few words to Murong Lingran, and left with them.
