Great Tang Southern Emperor

"Okay, since everyone has agreed, why not implement it? As for you..." Turning his gaze to Piero, Li Zhen said solemnly: "You can go at ease, this matter is not so easy to finish, even if it is If you are dead, we will also help you collect evidence that you did not commit a crime, and if it is finally found out that you are not guilty of a crime worthy of death, I will naturally be responsible to the end."

"Are you kidding us?" If Piero still didn't understand what he had experienced at this time, then he would really be an idiot, and glared at Li Zhen: "You can't be killed, you can't be humiliated, you are a dignified prince, how dare you play a trick on a man?" Dying man, what about your so-called demeanor? I think you are a rascal, even more rascal than a rascal."

As for the sin not unto death?

Are you kidding me?

Although Piero is a smuggler, he has a lot of appointments at hand. He can find evidence of his crimes if he searches casually. How can there be any chance of overturning the case?

Even he himself is very clear about this, the so-called reversal of the verdict is just a comfort.

Li Zhen smiled: "What is the demeanor of a wise gentleman? It was just imposed on me by others. I have never admitted it myself. What's more, what I said is true. As long as you can show evidence that you have not committed a crime, I will be fine. Naturally, I will let you go-but you can't take it out? There is no other way but to deal with you according to the law...Fang Yiai, why don't you execute it? "

"Yes, come here, pull the criminal Piero out to me, the car is broken."

"Yes."

Immediately, two warriors dragged Piero out for execution, but this man was tough enough, and he has not uttered a word of begging for mercy until now.

"By the way, the execution location should be placed at the downtown entrance of Area [-], so that everyone can watch it together."

"My subordinate understands."

"Okay, let's continue."

"Yes, continue the trial." Fang Yiai shouted: "Wang Tiezhiwen with weapons."

"Whoa!"

The trial continues. Anyway, those who can appear here today will have their lives on their hands. No matter what their crimes are, they will inevitably be stabbed in the end. Therefore, Fang Yiai's trial is a bit hasty, but because there is a jury, in the It can also be done procedurally, and I am not afraid of what someone will say afterwards.

Chapter 1086 Execution + Exile

Chapter 33 Execution + Exile

The trial in area [-] is continuing, while the people in area [-] are watching the excitement. From time to time, a group of young soldiers will escort a criminal over and send him to the temporary execution platform.

"Ouch, another one was pulled out."

"What is this identity?"

"Hey, it's the auction king, this old boy is not a thing."

"That's right, wasn't he the one who sent someone to snatch away the heirloom of the Zhang family on Qianjie?"

"For the sake of treasures, people are all over the house. This bastard has today."

"..."

"Crack!"

After a crisp sound, the auction king's body was separated, and his fate was considered good. Over there, the boss of the underworld who was cut in half is not dead yet, lying there crying all the time, it is simply horrible.

"Hey, another one came out. It's the shopkeeper Zhang from Tongrentang? Why did he appear here?"

"Yeah, Tong Ren Tang is just a drug dealer, I never heard that they killed anyone."

"That's because you don't know. This bastard sold hawthorn pills, and sold them in large quantities. It harmed many people and ruined many families. It's simply a legacy of endless poison."

"It turned out to be like this. That's really damned. All those who sell hawthorn pills will die."

"..."

The news spread more and more widely, and more and more people gathered to watch. The news had even spread to other areas, and people in other areas, regardless of the fact that it was already dark, came to watch with lanterns.

But with the passage of time, the people onlookers have gradually lost their previous mentality of watching the excitement, and instead they are all pale as snow, and the timid ones no longer dare to look any more, and slipped away quietly, and the rest are gone. They are all watching while suppressing the fear in their hearts—it is conceivable that the construction tonight may be a collective nightmare.

It was too bloody—from the beginning to now, more than twenty people have been brought here for various executions, and even the ground has been stained blood red.

And these 20 people are exactly the number of gangsters who gathered this time. It is their existence that supports the largest black market in Nanyang. It can be said that each of them is guilty of serious crimes. Apart from escaping, only those princes who were not in Luzon at this time were able to survive.

Each of these 20 people was sentenced to the most severe punishment, the best was hanging, and at least a whole body was left behind. The worst one was also a human trafficker, and he was also a trafficker who specialized in child trafficking. I don't know how many children there are, but the fact that more than fifty children died at his hands is simply a heinous crime. He was even sentenced to death. It is said that he will be chopped alive for [-] knives for more than three days. From the very beginning, the screams never stopped, and the hearts of the onlookers were chilled, but at the same time, there was a trace of joy in their hearts. Such a scumbag should be punished like this.

And it seems that the 20 people are far from the end, because according to some people's speculation, since the imperial court has launched such a big battle and blocked the entire No. 20 and No. [-] areas, it is of course impossible for them to be so hasty However, the target is definitely not just these [-] gangsters.

After all, the existence of the black market is not due to these bosses, they are just the builders and rulers of the black market. The real core of the black market is actually the criminals from all over the world. Among them are traffickers, mercenaries, pirates, Robbers, smugglers, etc., it is they who continuously provide various goods for the black market bosses, that make so many big bosses today, otherwise, it would be impossible to form such a large scale if only these big bosses do it themselves. of the black market.

In other words, if Li Zhen only punished the chief culprit today and spared those lower-level criminals, then even if he killed all the current group of big bosses, the place would still be destroyed soon. There will be a second batch of bigwigs, so that they can only treat the symptoms but not the root causes. Only by fundamentally solving all the cores can the court completely wipe out the black market.So some people think that the imperial court will definitely not easily let those guilty people go, and will definitely kill them.

What's more, the imperial court has launched such a big battle. According to their calculations, there are at least 1 elites alone, not to mention that the crown prince of the dynasty personally sits in the town, and the Luzon Metropolitan Guards all show up—if only these 20 people are killed , I'm afraid it's not worthy of such a big scene, right?

And this is also the reason why they feel shuddering—the blood of more than 20 big bosses has already dyed the surrounding ground red, and the number of those lower-level scumbags is even more, don't count those crimes Those who have died, even counting those who really committed capital crimes, the number will be tens or hundreds of times far more than these twenty people. If they are all killed, God knows how many people there will be. blood?I'm afraid it's really going to be a river of blood, right?

Although these people are all scum, and each of them has committed a crime that cannot be redeemed by killing ten heads, but if so many people gather together and execute them all... the impact on them will still be very strong.

I have to say that there are still some sensible people among the audience, but they are only half right. First of all, since Li Zhen has made such a big move, it is naturally impossible to kill only a few leaders. The idea came from the black market, but it is impossible for him to kill all the people who committed capital crimes at once, as they thought, which is definitely impossible.

After all, these two areas, No. 10 and No. [-], are illegal areas. It can be said that all the people living in them are criminals who have committed crimes. More than one person is killed, and more than [-]% of the remaining two-thirds will be imprisoned-so many people, how can the court have enough cells to accommodate them?

What's more, he killed more than 100 people before, which caused the court to be shocked. Li Zhen even went back to Chang'an in person, and promised Li Shimin in front of all the officials, that he would not do this in the future.If he broke this oath today, no matter what kind of punishment he would suffer for it, the damage to his reputation would be enormous.Especially now that he is approaching the critical juncture of enthronement, Li Zhen herself will absolutely not allow herself to make such a mistake at this time, leaving herself a huge weakness for no reason.

However, although they will not all be killed, some people who have committed the most heinous crimes will definitely be slaughtered. As for those Li Zhen who have slightly lesser crimes, he does not intend to let them go-letting them stay in human society is simply disrupting the human society. social order...

"By the way, Lin Fa, have you finished what I asked you to do?" Looking at the criminals being dragged out to be executed, Li Zhen suddenly turned her head and asked.

"Ah? Oh." Lin Fa was stunned for a moment, and then realized: "His Royal Highness, we have found it, but it is not within the jurisdiction of the subordinates, but within the jurisdiction of the Dagang Fleet. Your Highness can Luzon will rest for two days first, Situ has already heard the news and has already set off, and will soon bring his fleet to meet His Highness—it’s time for him to bring these criminals back.”

"That's right, that's fine."

Li Zhen nodded. Situ is Situ Chen, the governor of the Dagang Fleet. He is also the first graduate of the Naval Academy. Together with Lin Fa and two other outstanding graduates, they are known as the four elites of the new generation of the Navy. Now the four of them have achieved it. The difference in the position of fleet commander is that Situ Chen and Lin Fa are the commanders of the strengthened fleet, while the other two command only the Class A fleet.

As for what Li Zhen ordered Lin Fa to say, it is also very simple to say, and it is related to the criminals this time-he actually learned from the experience of England in later generations, exiled the prisoners to a remote place, and did not allow them to step into the prison again. Human society.

The difference is that Li Zhen does not have the guts of an English ruler to dare to use the entire continent as a place of exile. Now he can only choose one or a few isolated overseas islands that are harsh but barely survivable, and then throw all the prisoners there. It fends for itself.

In fact, for these criminals, the best place to deal with them should be in the slave camps of Li Yusi, but with the development of society, Datang's native thoughts have also been released. In recent years, various theories have emerged one after another, among which Some Madonna bitch ideas began to spread, and the brilliance of humanitarianism spread all over the world. Some people even proposed to pardon the crimes of prisoners, or began to call for exemption from the death penalty.

Of course, this is definitely impossible to pass, but under the influence of some people, the imperial court finally exempted Han sinners from being sent to the Li Yusi, and this is one of the reasons why the crime rate in the Tang Dynasty has soared in the past two years (Another reason is that with the development of Nanyang and other places, the Liyu Division has a sufficient source of slaves, and it no longer looks down on the few criminals in China).

After all, the price of crime is too low. I didn’t dare to commit crimes before because of the shadow of Li Yusi. Everyone understands that it is a hell. Once you enter it, you don’t want to climb up. There is only one end there, and that is death, so No one wants to enter there, and naturally they dare not commit crimes.But it’s different now, Li Yusi has a sufficient source of slaves, and there are various appeals from the outside world, so the shackles are gone, and the evil in human nature begins to be released...

Fortunately, Li Zhen has insights thousands of years beyond this era, and has more coping methods than others.

If you don't want criminals to suffer inhuman torture, then we promise you that, but although we promise not to fill them in the magic cave of Li Yusi, there is no need for the country to raise them for nothing, and to feed them with the country's food A bunch of scum, that's a waste of resources - so exile became a matter of course.

In fact, the earliest people in Luzon were exiled (of course, the number was far less than that at that time), but the people in the court underestimated the potential of Luzon. In just a few years, Luzon has changed from a wild place where only criminals could be exiled to the most important overseas territory of the Tang Dynasty. The annual tax contribution almost exceeds that of more than [-]% of the state capitals of the Tang Dynasty. Even Li Shimin They all once called Lu Song the most shining jewel in the crown of the Tang Emperor in private—snatching away this title that should have belonged to Tianzhu.

However, Pearl or something does not have any special meaning. The main reason why Tianzhu was able to occupy this title was that it was one of the earliest lands developed in England. If they were the first to develop Luzon or Borneo In the case of Tianzhu, this title is not inferior to Tianzhu.
