Chapter 464 Xu Da accepts a disciple(2/2)
It was already late, and today's public trial was about to begin. Zhu Han didn't even have time to eat breakfast, so he hurriedly changed his clothes.
Under the protection of the Black Cavalry Army officers, Zhu Han finally made it through the crowd with difficulty and arrived at the public trial outside the Yamen of the Ministry of Justice.
After a night of fermentation, more people came to watch the public trial today than before.
Even if many common people took the initiative to make way for Zhu Han and his party after discovering Zhu Han's arrival, it was extremely difficult for them to leave.
As soon as he stepped onto the stage of the public trial, Zhu Han felt an inexplicable pressure.
All these pressures come from the people who are eagerly looking forward to it.
As ordinary people, they could only enjoy a prosperous court in the Western District of the script.
I dreamed about it because I didn’t expect that after the great Ming Dynasty was established, this kind of thing would actually happen.
I heard that just yesterday, a dozen or so corrupt officials were beheaded.
It was not until midnight, when the sky was so dark that even with torches, it was almost impossible to see anything. Only then did the people watching the public trial reluctantly leave.
Moreover, early this morning, people rushed over to queue up.
At dawn, almost no one could squeeze into the three streets surrounding the Xingbu Yamen.
The officers and soldiers of the Black Cavalry Army could only form a human wall and kept persuading the people who came over.
"Everyone, slow down, don't be crowded, and be sure to watch your children and don't let anything happen."
"Fathers, please stop crowding. Please rest assured that everyone can see the public trial today."
"If anyone has a grievance, please come here to report it and tell us your grievances and what you want to sue. We will naturally report your grievances to the prince."
Originally, the people were worried that even if they went, it would be of no use.
As a result, when they arrived at the place, they discovered that a scholar had already been prepared here to help them write the pleadings.
The people who complained were originally queuing up, but a person in front of him suddenly burst into tears: "Father, your soul in heaven can finally rest in peace. The evil thief who committed many evil deeds was finally punished and had his head chopped off by His Majesty the King of England."
This man was kneeling on the ground, crying miserably, and a woman next to him was constantly comforting him.
This is not the first time this kind of thing happened this morning.
At the beginning, everyone was worried that something bad had happened.
After asking later, I found out that the scholar responsible for writing the petition told him that the corrupt official he wanted to sue had been executed in Wangye yesterday.
The man didn't expect it to be like this, and he couldn't help crying on the spot in excitement.
Now that everyone sees this kind of thing, naturally they won’t find it strange.
Some people have more complicated moods.
On the one hand, they hope that their enemies can be beheaded as soon as possible. After all, they are unwilling to live even for one more hour.
On the other hand, I also hope that those people live longer so that I can have the opportunity to watch these scum being executed with my own eyes.
"Shengtang!" As Zhu Han slapped the gavel, the thunderous shouts of "Long Live" came and went like waves.
Seeing this scene, even Xu Da couldn't help but feel a little worried for Zhu Han.
Although Zhu Yuanzhang's trust in Zhu Han cannot be increased, this involves imperial power after all, and no one can really guarantee what will happen.
"I hope Qi Wu is okay." Xu Da smiled bitterly and shook his head.
The public trial on the second day was another carnival that dazzled the people.
They saw with their own eyes that the corrupt officials who had harmed them and lorded it over them lost their heads one after another.
Some of these people cried loudly before dying, some begged, and several even peed their pants on the spot.
However, no one sympathizes with them.
Because from the day they started harming the people, they deserved this ending.
With Liu Song in the back hall, the situation was completely sorted out.
Zhu Han, who was standing at the front desk, had almost nothing special to do.
He even feels that he is now similar to the TV anchors of later generations. He does not need to be able to do anything practical, he just needs to read the script in front of the camera.
In fact, he is much more relaxed than those anchors.
Apart from the hotter weather and the sun, there was really no pressure at all.
When the sun is shining, someone will take the initiative to build a shed. When it is hot, someone will bring melons, fruits, pears and peaches and take the initiative to help him fan himself.
Even if he read the manuscript wrong, no one would blame him at all.
And those anchors will have their wages deducted if they read something wrong.
The only thing he had to do was probably when the progress of Liu Song's interrogation was relatively slow and the connection could not be connected.
First, let’s drag out a few guys whose crimes are not that serious and are relatively easy to get tried. They are just dragging them out to buy time to block the knife.
As he became more and more proficient, Zhu Han found that the public trial on the second day was much easier than the first day.
And in all of this, apart from Liu Song's first credit, the most important thing is that Li Yunxi, the humanoid calculator, is there.
Zhu Han lamented more than once that Li Yunxi was really born in the wrong era.
If we look at future generations, even if she is not a female mathematician, she will definitely shine in many fields.
It's a pity that this is the Ming Dynasty. Letting a mathematical genius like her check the accounts is just like using a cannon to fight mosquitoes. It is completely overqualified and underused.
However, Li Yunxi herself was quite interested in this matter.
