The father and son were drinking and discussing the general trend of the world. Cao Cao looked at Cao Ang, who was full of heroes and domineering spirit, suddenly felt relieved. This was Cao Cao's eldest son and a talented person in all directions!

"Father, is Xu Du's trouble now?"

Cao Cao laughed and said, "After the edict of his own clothes, the old ministers of the Han Dynasty shrank their heads back. Now they are brisk. Besides, you are in Jing, Xu reforms people's livelihood and conquered all directions. Who dares to jump out and seek death? Now your father wants to rely on your reputation."

Cao Ang hurriedly said, "My son dare not, his father is as powerful as a mountain, and his son is just a small tree that survives the mountain."

Cao Cao laughed and drank with Cao Ang before he let Cao Ang go back.

Cao Ang looked at the cold moon and sighed silently in his heart. Ten years of Jian'an are about to be the eleventh year of Jian'an. At this time, eight years have passed in a dream. Arms, people's livelihood, aristocratic families, and foreign tribes. "Cao Zixiu, the task is heavy and the road is long!"

The next day, Cao Ang was practicing sword at home, and suddenly a soldier came to report, saying that he was so popular outside the mansion that he asked for a visit.

Cao Ang frowned, "Full be fond?"

"Please go to the hall, and I will arrive later."

"promise!"

Cao Ang went inside and changed his clothes, turned to the hall, and saw Man Chong paced back and forth there, and seemed anxious, "I wonder what happened to the Lord of Man's Mansion?"

Man Chong smiled bitterly, "If it weren't for an urgent matter, I wouldn't dare to come and disturb me."

"Mr. Please tell me." Cao Ang did not dare to be careless and hurriedly asked Man Chong to sit down and say.

Man Chong knelt down after several cases, sorted out his thoughts, and said this matter Wanwanly.

However, there is a family in Qiao County. The owner of the family is named Xu Dazhuang and there is a scalper who accidentally lost his land while plowing the land a month ago. After searching for a long time, he felt distressed for several days. He still couldn't find it. He had to go to the government to prepare a case.

After about ten days, when he was plowing the fields, he found a yellow cow tied in the distance, which looked like his own family. He hurried over and saw that there was really a small gap on the ears of the yellow cow. There was this mark on the ears of his yellow cow, so the more he looked, the more he looked.

When he was plowing the fields, he vaguely remembered that there were four or five big men here, and he was always worried. What should he do if they came back to deny it and refused to admit that the cow was mine? He was cruel and untied the rope to tie the cow, "Go! Go home!"

Then the scalper ran away. Xu Dazhuang looked at the direction of the scalper running and was very pleased. Well, it was really his own cow, and he was indeed heading towards his own.

The owner of the released cow was Zhang Yi. He was from Wuping County. He was a landlord. The scalper was naturally unwilling to take four or five great men to catch Xu Dazhuang to meet the official. The Wuping County Magistrate was so big that he was all about it. He first went to find the cow, and then sent someone to search for Xu Dazhuang's house. He found a few cow hairs, but there were no human evidence and no physical evidence. What happened?

The magistrate of Wuping County was already in a big head, and Zhang Yi said, "This Xu Dazhuang stole my cow, but now he hid the stolen goods. He must have accomplices, and he tortured them to confess his guilt!"

Just when the slander was about to be defeated, the magistrate of Qiao County was unwilling to be willing. Ru Wuping County Magistrate captured the people under my rule on my territory. I don’t want to be faced? Besides, when you see this, you just want to slander him, but you can’t!

Both sides were not convinced, and they all started to make trouble, and they kept making trouble here.

It is said that Man Chong is not the turn of the prison, Man Chong is in charge of prison, but there is no way. Man Xu can't find a second person who is familiar with the meaning of the Dharmakaya Sutra, so this matter fell on him.

Man Chong is also very immature. I usually take people to mess with those who are innocent and honest in their crimes. How can I understand this thing?

But he is at least an authority in this field, so he has to come up with a charter, otherwise wouldn’t it be a joke?

But Man Chong couldn't handle it. When he heard that Cao Ang had returned, he remembered the eldest son who had studied the Legalist scriptures for ten years. He came to ask for advice on the second day of Cao Ang's return.

Cao Ang pondered for a while and it was really difficult to deal with. When he was a lawyer, he encountered a similar case, except that the subject was not a scalper, but a bird worth more than 100,000 yuan.

The criminal law was slowly developing at the end of the Han Dynasty, but there was still a kind of idea of ​​governing in civil affairs. If you want to develop agriculture, commerce and slowly build up the economy, you must formulate laws in advance. More things like this will definitely happen in the future. It is better to make a case first, so as not to have this incident again, but officials from all over the country will be blinded.

"Mr. Manfu, today I will bring Zhang Yi and Xu Dazhuang and I will interrogate him personally."

"Thank you, young master!"

Cao Ang followed Man Chong to the official office. When the people of Xudu heard that the eldest son wanted to cut off the "scalper case", they would come and watch it as long as there was nothing important at hand.

Cao Ang thought this was a good time to promote the law, so he discussed with Man Chong and opened four doors to keep the soldiers in order.

Cao Ang sat upright above, and Xu Dazhuang and Zhang Yi stood below.

"I am Cao Ang. Now I will cut off the affairs of you and the two of you. Do you have something to say?"

The two hurriedly bowed and said, "The villain knows that the young master is virtuous and kind, and has nothing to say."

Cao Ang nodded, "Since that's the case, I'll ask, you and the two of you answered, if you deceive, you will bear the consequences!"

"promise."

"Xu Dazhuang, why do you think that the scalper is yours?"

Xu Dazhuang replied: "The little man has a small gap in his ear, so the little man dares to believe that the yellow cow belongs to the little man!"

"Where is the gap? Is it the same as your own scalper?"

Xu Dazhuang hesitated for a while: "It should be...it should be the same."

Zhang Yi immediately jumped out and said, "Young Master, look, Xu Dazhuang is not sure that the cow is his. He will let the cow go directly, and he must have an accomplice!"

Xu Dazhuang immediately refuted, saying that he was not theft.

"Silent!" Cao Ang shouted coldly, and the two of them immediately fell silent and dared not speak anymore.

Cao Ang asked the two of them one by one, and they were almost the same as what Man Chong said, and he felt confident that Xu Dazhuang was wrong in his understanding of the facts!

"Xu Dazhuang, now you think about it, is the scalper just like the scalper that has been lost in your family?"

Xu Dazhuang suddenly knelt on the ground, "Young master, the villain is wrong, but he will not die if he is guilty!"

There was an uproar outside the official office. Is this acknowledgement?

Zhang Yi's face was full of pride. Why, I said that this person was a thief and this person was a thief, and the eldest son could see it.

Man Chong wanted to speak but stopped, he could tell that, but in this case, wouldn’t Xu Dazhuang be a death sentence?

In the late Han Dynasty, scalpers were important wealth and the main animal power of arable land. If they were killed and stole scalpers, they would be lighter to take a life.

"Since that's the case, I'll declare Xu Dazhuang not guilty. However, you can only find the scalper for Zhang Yi within ten days, otherwise you will pay it at the market price."

Everyone was in an uproar. Shouldn’t it be the death penalty?

Zhang Yi hurriedly said: "The eldest son, the prime minister once issued a decree to kill indiscriminately, and those who steal oxen should be killed!"
