Space Fisherwoman: Going fishing in the sea and getting rich

Prince Gongxuan said, "Perhaps it will come down in the next two days, but I met the county magistrate before and asked him about it. He said that the people of the Song family have bad character and have committed many evil deeds, but according to the law, they cannot be sentenced to death."

However, if it can be proved that Song Hexiu is really the son of Prince Gongxuan, then everyone in the Song family will not escape death.

The sentence for murdering the eldest son and grandson of a meritorious official is different from that for murdering the son of an ordinary citizen.

Song Chuman obviously thought of this question as well, and asked, "Your Majesty, what will they be sentenced to?"

King Gongxuan said: "The county magistrate said that he and his superiors and subordinates had discussed it and felt that letting them die would be too easy for them. Exiling them might just be what they wanted. After all, they are no longer able to live as human beings in Qingyu Village, so they might want to move to another place and start a new life."

"The only way to punish them and torture them is probably to send them to hard labor."

"So the county magistrate planned to sentence them to ten years of hard labor near Qingyu Village, and asked them to build roads. After the roads were built, they would dig ponds, etc."

Song Hexiu had read many books, and they said that people who did hard labor had to get up earlier than chickens, sleep for only two hours a day, and have only one meal a day.

If you move a little slower, the officers and soldiers will whip you to death.

Don’t even think about the wages, as the place you live every day is an open-air dam.

The officers and soldiers would give them materials and let them build their own huts.

In summer they are given quilts to cover themselves, but in winter they are only given mats.

The clothes given in summer are all winter clothes, and the clothes given in winter are all summer clothes.

If someone couldn't bear it and died, they would be thrown into a mass grave and their descendants would not be allowed to collect their bodies.

Many people can't even survive a year and are exhausted to death in two or three months.

However, if there was a shortage of people to do hard labor at that time, and they fell sick, the officers and soldiers would find someone to treat them.

Before they have recovered, they have to do hard labor again. They are not allowed to rest for long, nor are they given a chance to escape, so they suffer.

Song Hexiu sighed, without any sympathy for them, "They brought this upon themselves."

Song Chuman asked: "What about Song Chujin and Song Chuyin? Although they were mortgaged, they are still considered children of the old Song family."

She remembered clearly how the two of them bullied her and Song Chuhuai in the past.

She would be disappointed if she didn't see the miserable state of both of them.

The corner of Shen Tangyu's mouth twitched.

Aman, you...you are so thoughtful. You even thought about their children.

King Gongxuan said: "The county magistrate also took the two children into consideration. If they were girls, it would be fine, but they are boys. According to the investigation of the officers and soldiers, their reputation is not very good, so they were included in the candidates for hard labor."

"But if they were allowed to serve together in one place, it would also indirectly help reunite their family. So the government's plan is to separate them, with the children on this side of the river and the adults on the other side, so that they can see each other but not touch each other."

Song Chuman's eyes widened.

This is simply killing people and destroying their hearts.

Having the adults see with their own eyes how their children were subjected to hard labor and how they were beaten and scolded by officers and soldiers was like a needle stick in their hearts.

Song Hexiu nodded: "This way, they can indeed be punished."
