Chapter 242
The laws of the Dali Dynasty were extremely strict, and the punishment for theft was implemented as a crime of stolen goods. Simply put, the more you steal, the more serious the crime.

The law clearly stipulates: If a thief gets less than ten taels of wealth, a staff of sixty; to twenty taels, a staff of eighty;Every twelve plus one.

Li An was scared to pee this time, and he couldn't care about anything else, so he knelt down and begged for mercy: "Master Lizheng, please forgive me this time, I was blinded by lard for a while. The poor in the family can't get rid of the pot, so I don't know what to do." Thinking of going to my brother's place, I borrowed some time to go back as an envoy.

I haven't touched this money at all, and now you have taken it back, just let me live, I will never dare to do it again next time. "

Li An knelt on the ground and cried, with a lot of tears and snot in his nose, but he couldn't feel any compassion.

It's just... If this matter gets to the Yamen, the reputation of Li Family Village will also be ruined.

Li Shouyi was just saying something in a fit of anger, but after calming down and thinking about it, something was wrong.Although he has passed on, he is a real brother after all, don't let him be a villain here alone, but in the end he turns out to be a man inside and out.

Li Shouyi looked at Li Shou in embarrassment, "This..."

Li Shou was also in a difficult situation... Although Li An did it himself, but he couldn't do it if he was asked to personally send this worthless younger brother to the cell.Li An's health is not good, if he can't eat a meal from the yamen, and dies, what about his wife and children?
"Second brother, I was wrong, please forgive me this time." Seeing Li Shou's hesitation, as if seeing hope, Li An hurriedly crawled up to Li Shou on knees, hugged his thigh and wailed again.

Li Shou frowned so much that it was almost knotted, and he was so tangled in his heart that he didn't know what to do.

At this time Li Mingzhi suddenly stood up and said: "Uncle Li Zheng, he came to my house to steal once three days ago. It is not up to our family to decide whether to punish him or not. It's just that the stolen money must be taken away." Get it back."

The one tael of silver was lost, how can I pay for it?

Li An suppressed his tears, and denied it flatly: "I did sleep at home three days ago, nephew, you falsely accused me of stealing from your house three days ago, what evidence do you have?"

Li An looked at Li Mingzhi with a determined face, his cheap little eyes seemed to say: Haha, let's see what you can do to me!
however……

"The evidence, of course, is there."

Li Mingzhi turned around and left the house, and soon brought back an old cloth shoe, Li An recognized it at a glance, it was the one he had lost!
"This cloth shoe was dropped by the thief three days ago. Uncle Li, do you recognize it?"

Li An's eyes flashed slightly, but he still denied it, "Hmph, why do you say it's mine for a broken shoe!"

Li Shouyi looked at Li Mingzhi in disbelief. He also knew in his heart that the thief who stole three days ago must be Li An, but there is no evidence for the empty words, and there must be evidence for everything.

Li Mingzhi was confident, and he said calmly, "This cloth shoe has another mystery. Uncle Li, your leg was broken because of stealing when you were young, and it is inconvenient for you to walk, so your shoes are all specially made, left foot The insole is one-third thicker than normal insoles.

There is no other person in Lijia Village who can wear such shoes.If you still want to quibble, you might as well report to the official and search your house to see if you can find another shoe to match with it. "

"..."

How could Li An dare to quibble, his body softened, and he sat on the ground slumped.
