Chapter 697: Take people by order

  Chapter 697 Take people by order

  Chang'an City is the capital of the Tang Dynasty, with a population of one million, many officers and soldiers, a large population, and the largest number of prisons.

  In the city, there are Xingbu Prison, Dali Temple Prison, Jingzhaofu Prison, Jinwu Prison, Dongxitufang Prison, Chang’an County Prison, Wannian County Prison, Zhenfusi Prison, and Yushitai Prison.

  Prison after prison, all over Chang'an City.

  However, Chang'an Prison, like all prisons in Datang, does not have a separate administrative organization, but belongs to various departments.

  For example, there was no Yushitai Prison. Originally, Yushitai Prison was temporarily held in Dali Temple Prison. Similarly, the Ministry of Punishments was originally the highest government agency in the judicial field, and there were no prisons.

   But later, a new prison was also established, which was located in the Ministry of Punishment, and the Yamen of the Ministry of Punishment was in Shangshu Province, so the prison of the Ministry of Punishment was also established in the imperial city.

   "Where is Zhang Yungu being held now?"

   "Yushitai Prison."

  Qin Lang shook his head, "The Yushitai Prison is not very safe, so transfer it to the Jinwu Guard Prison."

  Ma Zhou didn't object, "Okay, I'll write."

   "Quan Wanji has gone to Mount Li, and I'm afraid he has already met the Holy Spirit." Qin Lang told Ma Zhou another news.

   "Saburo never leaves home, but nothing can escape your eyes."

   "I still have some ears in the capital."

   "Why didn't Saburo stop him?"

   "Of course I can stop him if I want to, but we have already done what we should do, so it's better to let him go to the Holy Spirit."

Ma Zhou was a little puzzled, but Qin Lang said, "Quan Wanji tried his best to make a big commotion, so let's let him fall into a big somersault. At that time, there will be loud thunder and little rain, and the unlucky one will be he."

  Ma Zhou immediately wrote an order to have Zhang Yungu transferred to Yushitai Prison and transferred to Zuojinwu Guard Prison. Yushitai Prison also had prison, questioning, and Baizhi duties. As the chief officer of Yushitai Prison, Ma Zhou, Doctor Yushi, was also the highest leader of Yushitai Prison. Of course, it was very easy to transfer a prisoner.

  Jin Zuowu Guard Prison is located in Chongrenfang. It was originally Xuanzhen Temple, but after it was banned, it was changed to the prison of Zuo Jin Wu Guard. The left Jinwu Guard belongs to one of the Six Armies of the Beiya, and is in charge of the nine gates of Chang'an Outer City, while the Right Jinwu Guard is in charge of the Sixth Street of Chang'an. It is also mainly for criminals who commit curfew, access control, street fights, theft, and robbery.

  Zuo Jinwu Wei Wu Guang Wu Heikai, Qin Qiong's old subordinates in Wagang, who joined Tang Dynasty together, and Qin Lang transferred him there when he was the governor of the town.

  Qin Lang transferred people to Jinwu Prison. The most important thing is that Jinwu Prison is the prison of the Beiya Imperial Army. This is an army prison, guarded by the Imperial Army, and it is very different from other prisons.

   "Quan Wanji met with the saint, and he made one-sided remarks, I'm afraid..."

  The crown prince has already ordered Yushitai to impeach Zhang Yungu, even took him into custody for interrogation, and retrialed Li Haode's case, but if the emperor intervenes directly, I'm afraid it will be troublesome.

   "Could it be that you, Yushitai, haven't figured out such a simple case?" Qin Lang asked with a smile.

   "It's already close to ten. Li Haode is indeed insane, but he is not completely crazy. He is crazy sometimes, so sometimes he talks nonsense, but sometimes he is like an ordinary person."

   "Can these be diagnosed by a doctor?"

"Yes, the imperial physicians from Dianzhong Provincial Shangyao Bureau, the physicians from Donggong Pharmacy Bureau, and the imperial physicians from Taichang Temple's Imperial Medical Office have all been invited to make a diagnosis. There is no doubt that the rash is confirmed. They all have medical certificates and the signatures of the physicians." Ma Zhou is still very efficient.

"Zhang Yungu and Li Haode brothers don't actually have any friendship. Zhang Yungu went to prison to visit Li Haode, and he just showed his fellowship. Yushitai has already planned to sentence Zhang Yungu for the crime of loss and leaking secrets. According to the regulations, Disclosure of such secrets is punishable by one and a half years in prison.

The criminal law of the Tang Dynasty followed the system of the Sui Dynasty, and adopted the five punishments of the Sui Dynasty. There are five types of punishments, death, exile, imprisonment, rod, and flogging. For the third class of thousands of miles, there is another flow of additional labor, that is, three thousand miles of labor, three years of hard labor, as a pardon for certain death sentences.

   As for the prison sentence, it is divided into five grades, ranging from one year to three years, with a difference of half a year.

Imprisonment is the penalty of deprivation of liberty and forced labor. Since the Sui Dynasty, other additional corporal punishments have been stripped away. It is no longer like chopping hands, feet, picking noses, etc. in the pre-Qin Dynasty, and there is no need for tattoos, shaving, head, and spanking, etc. in the Qin and Han Dynasties. light.

Zhang Yungu lost the opportunity to leak the secret, but it is not a major secret, and it is not that he will be beheaded if he leaks the forbidden Chinese language, so he will only be punished for a year and a half at most, and although Li Haode is suspected of being punished too lightly, he is generally fined not too much. If it is high, it means a fine, and if it is serious, it means demotion.

Therefore, Yu Shitai's final disposition proposal is to misconduct the trial, be convicted and dismissed from office, leak secrets, serve in prison for one and a half years, and be fined to serve in the Zhongnanshan quarry. When he arrives there, he will be arranged to be a record-keeping officer. errands.

  In the case of Li Haode, it is assumed that Li Haode did have epilepsy, but because of his illness, he made false rumors and caused bad influence, so he should be punished.

   "According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty and the law of thieves and robbers, what Li Haode committed was creating a demon book and a demon statement."

  Datang took very strict precautions against making monster books and making monster words. There were strict punishment regulations, and it was clearly stipulated that those who made monster words and monster words would be punished.

Li Haode belongs to the self-reported rest syndrome, pretending to be supernatural, and pretending to be a sign of wealth and auspiciousness. This refers specifically to saying that a certain person has a special body and what should be done. For example, Han Gaozu had seventy-two sunspots on his left thigh. Therefore, there are words like Emperor Xiang.

  Of course it involves specifics, and there is also the issue of the scope of transmission and the issue of harmfulness.

  The law stipulates clearly that anyone who participates in fabricating demon books and rumors to endanger the court and society shall be sentenced to death by hanging. Secondly, those who did not participate in the compilation of demon books and rumors, but spread them by themselves, if they spread them to more than three people, they would also be sentenced to death by hanging.

   Those who fabricate and disseminate demon books and rumors that do not actually harm the court and society are only a hundred sticks.

   It was neither fabricated nor used, it was just a private possession of the demon book, and it was only two years old. Only the harmless demon books are kept privately, and the stick is sixty.

  Private possession of Xuanxiang utensils, Qiyao calendar, prophecy books, Taigong Liutao, Huangshigong Sanlue and other military books, etc., for two years. Those who fail to pass on or talk about it, follow the method of creating demonic words, and those who study astronomy privately, then transfer to a scholar based on a book that is not their own, and it will take two years.

So in the Tang Dynasty, if you have nothing to do, don't watch the sky at night, say ominous or auspicious words, you may be punished if you say such words, unless you are an official or student of the Taishi Bureau, but you can see but you can't talk nonsense Spread it indiscriminately, otherwise it will be a rumor.

   Don’t mess around with almanacs and military books, or collect them randomly.

Don’t just say that you had a dream, dreamed of a fairy or something, if you have something special on your body, such as seven moles on your feet, big moles on your chest, horns on your forehead, etc., you can’t say what it is associated with. Otherwise, you are guilty.

Li Haode just said that he is a god, and even talked about government affairs indiscriminately, and the spread was very wide, which caused a very bad influence. Fortunately, he didn't say that he was the emperor or the reincarnation of the emperor, and he didn't say that he wanted to rebel. , plus he does have madness, so it can be alleviated.

   Yushitai made demonic words, but the words were harmless and insane, so here a hundred sticks were used, and the family members were ordered to take them back to guard them, and they were sentenced not to commit another crime.

  As for his brother Li Houde, the governor of Xiangzhou, he was responsible for his ineffective supervision, so here he was punished by demoting a member of the Ministry of Industry, Wailang.

  Qin Lang smelled the fragrance of tea while listening to Ma Zhou's words, "The efficiency is very high, and the handling is fair."

   "Because this case has become a big deal, it has already been dealt with more seriously, otherwise Zhang Yungu's handling will be fine." Ma Zhou complained a little for Zhang Yungu.

"If things get serious, someone has to take some responsibility. Li Houde is not wronged, but Zhang Yungu is a pity. I think this matter is handled well. Hurry up and raise it at the East Palace meeting, pass it with the prime ministers, and then report it to the saint .”

  ·······

  Quan Wanji, who knew the affairs of Yushitai, didn't care about the hard work, and rode behind Wang Kai, the young supervisor in the palace, and led the five hundred Yu Linlang all the way back to Chang'an City.

   Yushitai Prison.

  Quan Wanji said to Wang Kai, "The imperial prisoner Zhang Yungu is in the prison."

   "Bring the prisoner out and take him to the front street of the imperial city to behead him for execution!"

  Habayashiro, who was heavily armed, broke into the prison directly.

   "Reported to the young prison, but no criminal Zhang."

  Quan Wanji asked the jailer, "Where did Zhang Yungu go?"

  Watching this scene, the jailer said tremblingly, "I was just taken away by Chief Ma's official document."

   "Where did you mention it?" Quan Wanji asked.

   "It seems to be mentioned that Chongrenfang Zuo Jinwu went to prison."

   "The prisoner of my Yushitai, what qualifications does Zuo Jinwuwei have to take away?"

   "It was mentioned by Ma Taichang's writing." The warden is just a low-level subordinate, who has never seen this scene before, and his face turns pale with fright.

  Quan Wanji turned his head, "Young Prison, I'm in Zuojinwu Prison, go to Chongrenfang."

  Wang Kai frowned, "Zuo Jinwu belongs to the Zhen Fusi, I'm afraid this matter will be difficult to handle."

   "If there is anything difficult to do, we have an imperial decree."

  But Wang Kai ignored Quan Wanji, although the imperial decree is good, the problem is that it came in a hurry, it was just a verbal order, and there was no edict.

   "Where's Ma Zhou?" Quan Wanji couldn't help but ask the jailer.

   "Taiwan Ma has gone out, and the subordinates don't know the exact whereabouts."

"According to the order of the sage, from now on, I will know the affairs of Yushitai. Ma Zhou has been dismissed from the post of Yushi doctor and replaced by Zhongshu Shilang. You immediately call people and go with me to Zuojinwu Prison to arrest Zhang. Take it back!"

   Quan Wanji was willing to take the lead, so Wang Kai led others to follow.

   A group of people went to the front of the original Xuanzhen Temple in Chongrenfang, which is now Zuojinwu Prison, and usually detains some prisoners who violated the curfew, stole and robbed, and fought on the street.

   "This official is Quan Wannian, the newly appointed Quan Zhiyu Shitai. According to the order of the sage, the prisoner Zhang Yungu is to be transferred to the provincial king Shaojian in the palace. Hurry up and hand over the prisoner to this official."
