It is an old criminal who is used to criminal affairs. It is natural to write a verdict.

However, he hesitated to write, and hesitated for a while, and after writing, he thought about it for a while before he hesitantly handed it to Lu Dafang.

Lu Dafang glanced at him and handed him to Ouyang Bian.

Ouyang Bian took a look, then looked at the tea farmers separated by the banking supervision guards, with expectations on their faces.

Ouyang Bian smiled and said loudly: "Okay, I'll tell you something about the official duties of the Criminal Prison. He is an old Criminal Prison Officer. His profession is trustworthy for the laws and proficiency of the Song Dynasty.

Are you familiar with the law? You can come out? When I read it, if you have any objections, you can raise them on the spot."

One of the tea farmers stood up and shouted: "I am a Mingfa scholar, and I am familiar with the laws of the Song Dynasty."

Ouyang Bian nodded and looked at Li Dazhong. Li Dazhong said: "He is the son of a tea farmer, and we trust him."

Ouyang Bian nodded and said, "Okay, then I will read it one by one. If you have any objections, you can raise your hand, but don't make a mess. When asking questions, do you understand?"

"Understood!"

"You little imperial envoy, please read it."

"Okay, listen to you."

...

Ouyang Bian nodded, and still asked many soldiers to use as loudspeakers.

"First of all, it is about the punishment of the dead soldiers and officials. The deceased Zhang Daguan is the chief of goods affairs. It was originally implemented and it was legal to order the service area not to purchase and sell tea, and there is nothing wrong with this part.

However, when it comes to tea farmers producing tea, they become greedy. For personal political achievements, they threaten and induce and force tea farmers to become households. This is not in line with the law. He only has the power to prohibit, but does not have the power to force them.

Later, due to the poor harvest, the tea farmers were forced to make up for the shortage. The tea farmers had to sell the mountain farms, and some even sold their houses and fields. It can be said that the tea farmers went bankrupt or even their families were destroyed. Such behaviors were really a serious crime. Therefore, the sentence was announced as follows:

Zhang Daguan was dismissed from his post and sentenced to 20 years in prison. However, because he had been sentenced to death, he was dismissed from his official position during his lifetime and the court behind him no longer posthumously sealed him.

The dead soldiers acted obediently, and the right and wrong had nothing to do with them. The court would not pursue their faults, but would also provide compensation so that their families could survive.

Li Dazhong, what are your objections to this?"

The tea farmers around looked at the Mingfa scholar who had just stood up. The young man pondered for a moment and said, "The officials have a lot of room for disposal, but this kind of disposal is indeed a crime for Zhang Daguannas, and everyone is dead. I am convinced of this sentence."

Ouyang Bian looked at Li Dazhong.

Li Dazhong nodded and said, "We are convinced of this punishment!"

Ouyang Bian smiled and nodded: "Okay, just accept it. Next is the thirteen tea farmers who are detained that you are more concerned about..."

The audience held their breath.

Lu Dafang and Master Yu looked at each other and saw the concerns in each other's eyes.

“…According to the arrested tea farmers, they were all instructed by Tian Lun. Although it was not his intention to kill the official soldiers, he was the messenger in this matter, so he was the chief criminal.

As for the other twelve people, they participated in the killing of people. Although there was a suspicion of wrong killing, they eventually killed people, and they were officials and soldiers. Therefore, the sentence was announced as follows:

Tian Lun was entangled with the villagers and beat the officials and soldiers, and beat them to death by mistake. Therefore, the Criminal Prison Department ruled as follows according to the law of the Song Dynasty. Tian Lun was exiled for three thousand miles and fined ten kilograms of copper;

The other twelve people were punished by the accomplices, exiled thousands of miles, and each was fined one pound of copper.

Li Dazhong, this scholar, and many fellow villagers, do you have any objections to this punishment?"

The Mingfa scholar thought about it and said: "According to the laws of the Song Dynasty, this treatment is considered appropriate, and it is a ruthless judgment, which is also legal and reasonable."

Ouyang Bian looked at Li Dazhong, and Li Dazhong looked embarrassed.

One of the tea farmers jumped out with anger on his face: "What kind of punishment is this? Why did my brother Tian Lun fight to the dog official? It was because the dog official blackmailed my family's property and mountains, and had evil thoughts about my niece. My brother had no choice but to teach him a lesson.

Unexpectedly, the dog official couldn't help but fight, and then he got into a lawsuit. Now you dog officials are saying that they are for us, but they exiled these poor people who are forced to survive and die. What a bullshit Censorate or any bullshit mention of the official affairs of the prison are all coaxing us ordinary people! Let people go, let people go!"

After he yelled, other tea farmers also became angry.

"Yes, just kill that dog official. If it weren't for him, we would have today! Why should we exil to us tea farmers! Let people go, let people go!"

"That's right, and there is no word yet on the future of tea gardens. Can we remove our identity as a householder? I will not say until now! Let people go, let people go!"

"That's right, is this little dog official in the same group as the big cap dog official? It sounds nice, but he is merciless when he takes the knife. Don't believe him!"

...

The crowd was infuriated.

Lu Dafang's face turned slightly pale.

The adults' lips were trembling when they mentioned the matter of punishment and prison, but they were trying to calm themselves down.

Ouyang Bian sneered slightly, raised his right hand and clenched a fist in the air.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Five thousand cavalrymen on the field raised their spears or swords in their hands, aimed at the tea farmers, and tapped them, as if they were about to charge the next moment.

The spear and sword emitted a cold light in the sun, making people unable to help but feel numb when they saw it.

The tea farmers were shocked, and some were even scared to retreat and push each other, and for a while, there was a feeling of chaos.

Ouyang Bian stepped on the tall horse, looked down at the tea farmers, glanced around, and the person who was seen by his cold eyes dodged his eyes and did not dare to look at him.

Ouyang Bian shouted: "I said that the Song Dynasty governed the country according to law. Officials did wrong things, and a country ruled it. When the people did wrong things, they still had to take national laws as the criterion.

Zhang Daguan did something wrong, and was beaten to death by you, and the grief behind him was also deprived of. This is the law of the country;

Tian Lun killed an official because he was a manslaughter. According to the law, he was exiled for three thousand miles, which is also the national law!

Now you have to use the so-called public opinion to force the court not to deal with the national law. What kind of behavior is this? This is defiling the dignity of the national law!

Do you have only kindness in the court, but no sharp swords?”

Speaking of the latter, Ouyang Bian was both stern.

He was angry and widened his eyes, looking for any tea farmers who were unwilling to accept it.

No one dared to look at him.

"call!"

Ouyang Bian breathed out a sigh of relief, his face calmed down.

"Do you know that the mission I brought this time is not only to appease, but also to strangle the rebellion!"

Li Dazhong was shocked: "Sir, why are you here? Why are you here? We are just here to make trouble!"

Ouyang Bian smiled and looked at the man who called himself Tian Lun’s brother: “I insist on maintaining the original verdict, what do you think?”

The man was angry, but before he could speak, Li Dazhong rushed up and slapped him a few times, and scolded him angrily: "Do you want to kill us?"

After beating, Li Dazhong quickly crossed his hands and saluted Ouyang Bian: "Sir, we will accept the verdict!"

Ouyang Bian looked at other tea farmers.

The tea farmers said one after another: "We are also convinced!"

The beaten man also lowered his head, and his head did not dare to look at Ouyang anymore.

It’s okay to accept the verdict!

Ouyang Bian got off the horse and sat back in front of the stage.

Raise your hand to indicate.

This time everyone took the initiative to silence.

"Since I'm convinced, I'll sign and seal it."

Ouyang Bian looked at the client's consent.

Everything is finished.

Ouyang Bian stood up slowly, and the tea farmers looked at the young man in fear. They really felt that if they dared to cause trouble, their heads would really fall to the ground.

"The case is over, but the matter is not over yet. Next, I will read out the official decree to you."

The people sitting stood up one after another. The soldiers riding on the horse quickly raised their swords and guns to show respect. The tea farmers also hurriedly walked north and handed over.
