It is impossible to punish adults

Chapter 73
"Okay, okay! What you said makes sense!" The girl in Ziyi was unable to argue with what he said, but she was not willing to give up, and continued to argue vigorously, "Forget it, you are right about this lynching. If I don't abuse it, then this thief shouldn't be so lenient! In my opinion, even if he doesn't chop his hands, he has to peel off the skin so that he knows that he will suffer a lot if he reaches out to steal, and he will dare to steal in the future. , to see if other people dare to not learn like this in the future!"

"No." Li Yuan saw that the girl in Ziyi was relieved, and smiled slightly, "If the stolen money is returned in full, the punishment can be reduced, and after the thieves are caught, they are willing to make up for the loss as much as possible, so as to reduce the suffering of flesh and blood.

If, as the girl said, even if you just steal money, you have to hurt your muscles and bones and take half your life as punishment, then the thief will not be willing to return the money, and what's more, in order to avoid the exposure of the crime, he may simply commit murder and hurt people. , Murder and silence, in this way, wouldn't it breed heavier crimes, and the gains outweighed the losses? "

Mu Liuyun was surprised when he heard Li Yuan's words behind the wall.

She has been in the company of the magistrate Yang and magistrate Kong all day long. She has long been accustomed to these people either talking about slapsticks and shouting and killing them to boost their prestige, or they strictly adhere to the principle of prudent punishment, but they do not. I don't know why the superiors asked for the punishment to be used cautiously, but they were numb and obedient. If they were not allowed to beat more, they would not be beaten, and if they were not allowed to be beaten, they would not be beaten.

Even Mu Liuyun himself always thought that the new emperor wanted to be a benevolent ruler, so he wanted to show benevolence and love for the people everywhere, but did not think of a more profound purpose.

Now listening to Li Yuan's words, there is a sudden feeling of relief, and the whole person is suddenly enlightened.

After Li Yuan finished speaking, he looked at the thief on the ground again: "Not to mention, I almost forgot, you little thief stealing in the street, so many well-dressed, but choosing such a girl's house, must feel The daughter's family is delicate and frail. Even if something is stolen, she can't catch up, and she can't beat her.

It's annoying to be so bullying!In this case, I will add five days of hard labor to you to help you grow your memory for a long time, remember this lesson, and never have evil thoughts in the future, and stretch your hands to the waists of others. "

When the thief heard this, he hurriedly kowtowed: "Mr. Xie Guan is so kind! The villain has never stolen in the past, and this time it was because the old mother at home was ill, so he was so confused!
Mr. Guan, if you want to beat me, I will punish me if I need to. I will definitely not have such evil thoughts in the future. If I do such a thing again, even if you cut my head off, I will never complain! "

Li Yuan nodded to him, then looked at the girl in purple: "Does the girl have any objections?"

The girl in purple was unable to refute Li Yuan's question, but her heart was full of fire, and she could refute if she couldn't find any suitable words. In the end, she could only stomped angrily, turned around and pushed the crowd out of the county office.

The girl in Ziyi ran away, and the thief was escorted by the yamen to the back to pick up the bamboo slices and smoke it. The crowd of onlookers outside had no fun, so they dispersed one after another, and the usual silence in the yamen was restored.

Li Yuan arranged for the official uniform and walked back to the back hall slowly, just as he was about to call the yamen to give instructions, he saw several yamen winking at him. He turned around in the direction he indicated, and saw Mu Liuyun and Yuan Mu who had come out from behind the wall.

After Li Yuan took office, Mu Liuyun still ran to Xisi County for a while. Although he had been gone for some time, Li Yuan recognized her. Seeing that the manager of the state government was here, he treated her politely. Shut up.

"Why did Mu Si Li suddenly come? But what happened to my Xisi County boundary?" He asked politely.

Mu Liuyun also saluted him: "That's not true, I accompanied Mr. Yuan to Xisi County to look for someone today because of a case in Taiping County, but...it didn't go well, so I stopped by Mr. Yuan's place. Come and ask for some tea."

Li Yuan listened to Mu Liuyun calling the man in blue shirt next to him "Master Yuan", he was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses, and respectfully saluted Yuan Mu: "I have seen Yuan Tixing before!"

Yo!This is a person who knows the goods... Oh no, the discerning eye knows the hero!

"Do you recognize me?" Yuan Mu was not particularly surprised when Li Yuan recognized him at once.

"I don't know, but Yuan Tixing's reputation on Gyeonggi Road is like thunder. I have always admired the thunderous methods of adults, but at least some of them have heard of it and have never dealt with Yuan Tixing." Li Yuan smiled, " As soon as Mu Si Li said that he came with Sir Yuan for the case, I thought that it should be Sir."

Mu Liuyun didn't expect Li Yuan to recognize Yuan Mu at a glance. Judging from this alone, let alone Fatty Kong, even if the prefect of Yang was in front of him, he would immediately compare.

"Master Li is really broad-minded. That woman is arguing with you in front of the court, and Master Li has never had the same knowledge as her!" Mu Liuyun didn't plan to really eavesdrop on the corner, so he naturally flattered.

Li Yuan said: "This person is the eldest lady of a martial arts hall in Xisi County. The ancestor of the martial arts hall's owner is said to be the champion of martial arts in the previous dynasty. As a bodyguard, there are also some big families in the capital, and they will also ask their disciples to be nurses, guards and the like.

The current master of the martial arts hall has four sons, and only one daughter. I also heard rumors that this woman is very skilled, but she has a arrogant personality and is not easy to deal with. Fortunately, this young lady is not bad at heart. So it's not that I don't have the same knowledge as her, but she doesn't have the same knowledge as me today. "

Li Yuan's remarks were very kind, and Mu Liuyun smiled after hearing it, but he had a better impression of this Lord Li in his heart.

It is very rare for a parental official to have a smart mind and a clear judgment of right and wrong. Coupled with the worldly knowledge and a smooth person, if such a person does not rise step by step in the future, it is simply unacceptable!
"Master Li just concluded the case with reason and evidence, which has benefited me a lot!" Mu Liuyun praised Li Yuan, but this was not a compliment, she really admired this modest gentleman from the bottom of her heart, "Today we came to Master Li because we wanted to Learn something about the Ye family."

"The Ye family? But Ye Chengsi from our county, Ye Yuanwai?" Li Yuan was slightly surprised, "Ye Yuanwai's family has done countless good things since I took office in Xisi County. Why did Mu Si Li inquire about them? Could it be that something has something to do with the Ye family?"

　It's really uncomfortable for "relatives" to "visit". Today is an update, and tomorrow will be normal!mwah!
