Liu Chun stood at the door, but did not go in, with his identity, it was indeed not suitable to break in rashly, so Liu Chun nodded and asked a family member to come forward and knock on the door, only to say that the neighbor was visiting.

When the housekeeper knocked on the courtyard door, a middle-aged man came out of it, he lowered his head, wore a hat, but there was still blood on his sideburns, and he had obviously just been beaten.

He glanced at the family, immediately lowered his head, and said embarrassedly: "There is something at home, and you have neglected the distinguished guests, please forgive me, and the villain will come to the door to kowtow another day to apologize." ”

Obviously, he knew Liu Chun's identity, but the current situation of their family was really inconvenient to meet guests, so he could only refuse.

The family was also angry, Lord Liu came to the door in person, not to mention your house, even if it was the noon gate, it was just going in and out! He wanted to teach this man a lesson, and at this time Liu Chun came over with a smile.

"I lived here during the Hongwu period, left for a few years in between, and now I'm back. It stands to reason that I should visit the old neighbors of Lao Cai, but unfortunately it is too busy to spare time. Come here today, if it's inconvenient to go in, can you ask a few words? ”

The middle-aged man peeked at Liu Chun, and sure enough, his bearing was extraordinary, and he unconsciously bent his waist deeper.

"Please, please."

"I heard that Lingtang ...... Is she okay? ”

The middle-aged man paused for a moment and said busily: "My mother passed out in a coma, just now, she has just woken up, and her body is fine." ”

Liu Chun nodded slightly, since there was no death, this matter was much easier.

"That'...... Can you tell me what your family is arguing about? It's a neighbor after all, and it would be great if I could help. ”

Liu Chun spoke, what is the identity of the person! How dare a middle-aged man refuse, but, but his father's appearance, if he collides with a nobleman, what can he do?

He was so anxious that he was sweating, and at this moment the old man came out of it, his back slightly hunched, but he tried to puff up his chest and keep his face tensed, so that he could look more confident.

"The old man meets your lordship."

After he gave the salute, he said in a deep voice: "The old man's house is unfortunate, and there is an animal that knocks out his grandmother, and the old man has reported to the official." disturbed the peace of adults, and the little old man deserved to die. It's just that the ugliness of the family should not be publicized, so please go back. ”

This is about to drive himself away, Liu Chun read a lot of things from the looks of the father and son, he smiled lightly, "Old man, I happen to be in charge of some cases, if it is really the murder of my grandmother, even if it is not successful, according to the law of the Ming Dynasty, it is a heinous crime, and it is to be beheaded!" ”

"What?"

The middle-aged man exclaimed, "How come? ”

At this time, the little Yu Qian said: "How could it not? The dynasty rules the world with filial piety, killing someone is a capital crime, killing a grandmother, it is even more serious, even if you don't die, it will be beheaded. In the "Great Message", it has been clearly stipulated. ”

"Ahh

The middle-aged man was shocked, he suddenly turned his head, knelt down on his knees, and wept bitterly, "Father, he is not guilty of capital crimes!" Father, spare him! ”

The old man still stiffened his face and shouted angrily: "Get out, do you want outsiders to see the joke?" ”

The middle-aged man was trembling and had to get up, but he was still worried, "Father, give Chao'er a way to live, he has no bad intentions!" ”

The old man raised his head, hesitated for a moment, suddenly gritted his teeth, and said angrily: "If he doesn't listen to me, he deserves to die!" It's useless for you to say anything! You're my son, you can't even want your father for a little brute, right? ”

The middle-aged man hurriedly shook his head, "The child doesn't dare, but, but Chao'er is also the flesh and blood of the child, and it is also the ...... of our family."

"No!"

As if he had taken mad medicine, the old man roared, "He's not! He is not filial! He doesn't deserve to be a member of our family, it's best if this little beast dies and dies! So as not to pollute the door of our house! Listen to me, from now on, treat this little animal as if it were life and death, and never mention it again. ”

The middle-aged man opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.

At this moment, Zhu Zhanji really couldn't help it, he stared at the old man, his eyes were on fire.

"Is there anyone like you being a grandfather? You're an old bastard! ”

When the old man heard this, he was shocked, the corners of his mouth twitched twice, and he didn't dare to say anything after all.

just bowed to Liu Chun and said: "My lord, this is the old man's family matter, the old man's family is unfortunate, and there are disobedient children and grandchildren, let the adults laugh, and the old man will discipline him well." ”

He turned his head and yelled at the middle-aged man: "Don't go back with me, kowtow in front of your grandfather's spiritual seat, and lead the family law!" ”

The middle-aged man was like a marionette, he didn't dare to say a word at all, and turned around to leave.

At this time, Zhu Zhanji and Yu Qian couldn't help but look at Liu Chun, do you want to condone this old stubbornness?

"Wait!"

Liu Chun chuckled and said, "Old man, you just said that this is a family matter, but you reported to the official again, this is not a family matter." And let Sun Ren be in the sailor camp, and the movement is not small. In view of this, I, Jinyiwei, have decided to take over this case, and you will wait for the investigation! ”

Jin Yiwei has always been in charge of big cases, how can such a dispute be worth investigating by Jin Yiwei?

Soon, those who had these questions all shut up.

Because in the backyard of this house, I found a house, which enshrines the spiritual seat of the ancestors, and it is a good habit to pay tribute to the ancestors on weekdays.

But in this room, there are bamboo boards, ropes, iron rulers, and even simple sticks...... Where is the ancestral hall, it is simply an execution ground.

These torture instruments were still mottled with bloodstains, and some were even soaked and turned into a deep dark color. Fortunately, incense is burned every day, otherwise it would have to smell blood.

Zhu Zhanji was so skinny, when he saw this, he was so frightened that he closed his mouth, his eyes widened, and he didn't dare to speak.

According to other neighbors, the family is still very good. They know etiquette, they also abide by etiquette, they will discipline their children, their children will never be like wild horses, running around, obedient, especially sensible, they are simply other people's children, full of examples.

But upon closer inspection, more details come out.

For example, from childhood to adulthood, if there is a slight mistake, they will be dragged to the ancestral ancestral hall, beaten, beaten with a whip, punished by kneeling, denied food, tied up and hung on the beams of the house.

All in all, all means of punishment have been exhausted.

Some people will also think that discipline is too much, but after thinking about it, as the old saying goes, the stick produces filial piety, you see that other people's children are so well managed, what qualifications do you have to say that other people's are wrong?

Let's take a look at our own children!

And the old man is often proud, feeling that if he is well disciplined, their family will get better and better.

Thirty years ago, he earned a yard by selling goods on a flat shoulder. At that time, he picked a good land, spared no expense, and built a big tiled house, and in order to build this house, he was so tired that he vomited blood.

Is it easy for him for the sake of this family?

Over the years, he has been old and doesn't take care of things very much, but his son is not promising, and he can't even manage his grandson. This little rabbit cub is not honest and inherits the family business. Isn't it nonsense to learn something new? The old man was ruthless, beat his grandson several times, and burned all his books and writings.

A ban was issued against going out.

But not so long ago, the seafaring fleet came back and brought back news from overseas, and there were newspapers everywhere, and there were introductions everywhere...... The boy climbed the wall, jumped out, ran to the dock in one go, and saw the magnificent globe, staring at it stupidly.

He found the Ming Dynasty and Yingtian, and it was just a little bit on it...... He went to buy newspapers again and read them hungrily. He knew the vastness of overseas, and he knew that there were so many countries, so many lands, and so many wealth.

His heart was suddenly opened, and the boy felt that he had found what he was looking for.

He shouldn't be confined at home, and he shouldn't be like his father and ancestors, living on a small business. He went crazy and ran back home, wanting to confess to his parents...... But at this moment, he was seen by his grandfather, who had been staring at him.

The strongest quarrel in their house broke out in history, and the old man used family law, punished him severely, and tied up his grandson and threw him in the room, without food or drink!

For two days, in order to prevent escape, he and the old lady guarded the door separately, two ways, either admit their mistakes and bow their heads and never run out again, or starve to death inside, preferring not to have this grandson.

The boy was tied, but he was unwilling to admit defeat, he approached the foot of the table, rubbed the rope on his foot hard, and after some hard work, he finally broke the rope, and fled outside desperately.

At the moment when he pushed open the door, the old lady was blocking outside, coming and pulling, the young man was already red-eyed, he used all his strength to break free from the old lady's obstruction, climbed the courtyard wall, and escaped.

He didn't notice at all, the old lady was about to chase him, but his feet slipped and he fell to the ground, and by chance, he knocked his head and fell unconscious.

After the old man found out, in order to recover his grandson, he even asked his son to go to Tianfu to sue in the name of killing his grandmother. Such a disobedient matter, how could Ying Tianfu sit idly by. Then he sent an official to come over, and chased him to the barracks, to arrest the people.

"With these torture instruments, it is not an exaggeration to convict a private torture hall!" This is Jin Yiwei's opinion on this case, but Ying Tianfu's side has a different opinion.

"People's grandfathers take care of their grandsons, no matter what, it's a family matter, it seems that the court shouldn't be involved, and it is convicted with torture tools, this Ming Dynasty up and down, how many ancestral ancestral halls, to the countryside, let alone beating people, even if they are disabled and killed, no one cares!"

Including the old man, he was also unconvinced.

"This is my family law! Even the emperor Lao Tzu can't interfere in my family affairs. My sons and grandsons are all mine, and even if the old man kills them, he deserves them! Even if I go to the Jinluan Palace to fight a lawsuit, I am not afraid! ”

It's tough!

"Your Majesty, people have named you, do you want a royal trial for this case?"

Zhu Di looked at the case file in front of him, the more he looked at it, the more angry he became, and what was even worse was that there were a large number of people who thought that Jin Yiwei was interfering in family affairs indiscriminately, and it was purely a dog taking a mouse.

"The royal trial, not only the royal trial, but also all the magistrates will listen! Let's see if I'm fair! ”
