my wife is a consul

Chapter 197 Fighting poison with poison
The court in Bate City learned a bit from the eastern part of the country.

On the judge's seat, the mighty City Lord Luo sat tall.

The four white-flag councilors were sitting in the jury. The ones Lu Ming had never seen were Economic Luo and Dajun Luo.

In the era of cold weapons, the Luo family of the great army is the most brave and good at fighting. The traditional skill of the Eagle-eyed Luo family is scouting, and its ancestor was a scout.

But now, the Hawkeye Luo family is the most powerful.

The Luo family of the great army is conservative. When firearms were first introduced to the Western Regions, they fought against the Musketeers of White Deer City with bare arms. Many brave children died in battle without leaving any blood. This may be the reason why the current Luo family of the great army is generally not as strong as their ancestors. .

Economic Luo's small head and fat body looked a little funny.

After all, Dajun Luo is the head of the family. Although he is five or sixty years old, he has a strong voice and a strong body.

In the auditorium, only members with yellow flags and blue flags are allowed to enter.

This case was quite a sensation. The chieftain family, not too confused or decadent, also vaguely understood the meaning of it.

Although the small and medium-sized chieftains knew that no matter whether it was Mayor Lu from the East or Fira Petroleum from the imperial capital, they would not be able to curry favor with them, but they still had to participate in the next big event.

The auditorium was full.

In this court, it was also the first time that Lu Ming saw the dog and Ha Shan.

Because Fila Petroleum controlled these two witnesses and victims so tightly that no one else could touch them.

The native dog has a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. It has the same face as a monkey, and its small eyes are rolling around. It looks like a cunning person.

As Liu Laocai said, Hashan is indeed not very beautiful, and her face is even more old. In the East China Sea, she is the kind of country woman in her 50s and [-]s, and she even has faint hair on her temples.

Moreover, when she answered Charles' question, she seemed so simple and docile.

The way she looked at Liu Laocai was complicated, faint, and full of hatred.

Originally looking at her, Lu Ming nodded, feeling that this is the perfect match that Liu Laocai needs.

But seeing the hatred in her eyes, Lu Ming's expression gradually became serious.

Hazan's hatred for Liu Laocai could not escape the eyes of Charles' legal team.

Therefore, the lawyer team seemed very relaxed. After all, the evidence was conclusive. Even ordinary lawyers would be ashamed to face others if they were defeated, not to mention that they were from the largest law firm in the capital.

Both Western language and Central African language are the official languages ​​of the empire. Charles even made a joke. Before asking Hashan a question, he said to Lu Ming: "Lawyer Lu, I know that your education level is not high, you are self-taught, and you don't understand Griffin. Nepali language, so, I let you, I will ask questions in Middle Continental language!"

It caused a roar of laughter.

As expected, Charles speaks all Zhongzhou language, and the translation and translation of the testimony of Hazan and the dog is also in Zhongzhou language.

However, just starting to induce witnesses to testify, Charles went out in person, and the assistant lawyers of his legal team thought it was inconceivable. The boss took Lu Qianxing too seriously, right?
Throughout the afternoon, the No. [-] witness, Hazan, and the No. [-] witness, Tugou, testified. Charles guided them to tell the story of the day.

Not only the white flag members shook their heads again and again.

Even the chieftains in the auditorium were filled with righteous indignation and shouted angrily from time to time.

"kill him!"

"Chop off his fat head!"

Even if Hazan is just a lowly commoner, being raped by a foreign race is a great shame to them.

Lu Ming basically didn't stand up to ask questions, but just listened quietly.

Next to Lu Ming, the assistant was a blue-skirted affairs officer randomly selected. For the first time, the little girl was sitting side by side with the boss behind a table. She was so excited. aware.

Beside the clerk was Liu Laocai, with an earthy face, frightened by the fierce and menacing aura of the natives.

……

The trial continued the next morning.

After the court session, Lu Ming stood up and said, "Your Honor, I request the summoning of witness No. [-], Ha Shan."

The list of witnesses prepared by Lu Ming is usually a lot, including the neighbors of Hashan and Tugou, including the couple who are going to seduce Liu Laocai, and even Ji Luo and the security officer of the guard in Ji Luo And a dozen city patrol soldiers were put on the witness list.

On Richard's side, there are only two witnesses, the first witness and the victim, Hazan, and the second witness, the dog.

Hearing what Lu Ming said, Richard got up immediately, "I request to call Witness No. Requests to call new witnesses have priority, not to mention, the witnesses I request to call are witnesses for the defense.”

Zhongquan Luo nodded: "Witness No. [-] will testify in court."

The thorn is the beautiful woman who seduces Liu Laocai every day.

After going to court, under cross-examination by Richard, the woman said Liu Laocai's character was extremely bad, why she was always staring at her like a hungry wolf, which made her very scared, and what made her drink, and secretly gave her valuables gifts or something.

He also said that Liu Laocai wanted to do something wrong to her that night, but she slapped her in the face.

Therefore, this evil fire must have gone back to vent on poor Hazan.

In the auditorium, there was a buzzing chaos from time to time, and some people even threw stones at Liu Laocai.

"Your Honor, all jurors, I want to make one point, the thorns are witnesses for the defense!" After Richard finished speaking, he shook his head and walked back to the prosecutor's seat.

The members of the legal team looked at Lu Ming gloatingly.

The boss said that this guy habitually stuffed many unnecessary people into the witness list to cover up his real intentions.

But Thorn was originally the No. [-] witness on his own side. After seeing her name in the other party's witness list, the boss's witness list removed the No. [-] witness.

Fight fire with fire, fight with your witnesses.

People who don't know the truth will naturally feel that your witnesses have said so, so why are you sophistrying?
Now, you have only one way, apply to the court to list your witness as a hostile witness, and then attack her statement.

Not to mention tiredness, the jury's perception of you is even more difficult to express.

Although, the jury here is just for show.

He even knows how to judge himself, two to two?In the end, the Zhuang Luo City Lord Council sentenced Liu Shoufu to be guilty.

"Your Honor, I have no questions for witness No. [-]. I request that witness No. [-] be called." Lu Ming stood up again.

Richard's legal team is even more funny, so give up?

I also know that attacking Witness No. [-]'s character with a bad face, seducing Liu Laocai, etc., will backfire, and will only make people think that you are sophistry?

However, a strange color flashed in Richard's eyes, staring at Lu Ming, pondering.

He had fought against Lu Ming, so naturally his assistants were not so optimistic.

Hazan timidly sat on the witness stand again.

Lu Ming walked up, looked at her, and after a while, asked lightly, "Have you heard of me?"

Hearing what the interpreter said, Hazan shook his head slightly.

Lu Ming smiled, and pointed to the prosecutor's seat, "Don't look at Richard and these people as menacing, they are very imposing, right? You are afraid of them, I understand. But in my eyes, they are like earth It's just a chicken and a dog! That's the one, the one who looks great, who was beaten by me and returned to his hometown." The direction of the finger is Richard.

Richard's face sank like water, and the assistant beside him had already stood up, protesting with righteousness and sternness.

Lu Ming said again: "So what about Fila Petroleum? The mercenaries I brought wiped out his two camps, just like crushing an ant nest!"

Lu Ming insisted on using his own translator when he asked questions, and Luo Yi did so, translating these words very straightforwardly.

Richard couldn't sit still anymore, Huo De stood up.

Zhongquan Luo had already struck the gavel, "Lawyer Lu Qianxing, what exactly do you want to say?"

Lu Ming turned around and smiled at Zhongquan Luo: "I just want to dispel some anxiety in the witness's heart, so that I can guide her to speak the truth."

Zhongquan Luo frowned, "I don't think so, lawyer Lu Qianxing, if you continue to intimidate witnesses like this, I will declare the case closed and I will make a formal ruling."

Lu Ming looked at him and nodded: "Actually, you little city lord, if I really want you to step down, you won't be able to sit in this position for more than three seconds."

Luo Yi translated it by himself.

Zhongquan Luo immediately turned pale with anger, and slammed the gavel, wanting to say something, but finally gritted his teeth, "This is my last warning." After hesitating, he finally did not dare to expel the dignitary in front of him from the court, Then directly rule Liu Laocai to death.

Hazan stared blankly at this scene, looking at the beautiful girl who should be a native just like himself, she was wearing strange clothes, but she was even more brazen, standing in the court like this and directly threatening the high and sky-like city lord.

The city lord looked so furious that he was so frightened that he just wanted to kneel down and beg for mercy now.

But in the end, the city lord did nothing, but gave a verbal warning again.

Lu Ming looked at Ha Shan and smiled, "Miss Ha Shan, you haven't registered your property with Mr. Dog, right?"

Hazan nodded slightly: "Yes."

"So, in fact, you and Mr. Dog, according to the Berbett Code, do not have a marriage relationship."

Hazan was a little dazed, shook his head and said, "I, I don't know."

Many civilians live like this.

Richard had already stood up, "No, this is a de facto marriage."

Lu Ming smiled at him: "Mr. Richard, this is Bate City. The place where we are standing is the Bate City Court. So, do you want to use the laws of the East China Sea to judge the affairs here, or the local regulations?"

Richard smiled: "Of course it is a local law!" He reached out and picked up a piece of paper, "Lawyer Lu, take a look, do you think that the laws of this country do not recognize de facto marriage? You are wrong!"

The members of the legal team all smiled, obviously well prepared and well prepared, the boss had already guessed that the defense would hit this point.

If it is an unmarried woman, if she is raped, the thugs will be less guilty and will not be beheaded. Moreover, they are even more afraid of this number of witnesses retracting their confession.

Because unmarried, there is no adultery.

If a married woman retracts her confession, saying that the other party did not rape her, but she did so willingly, the two will be guilty of adultery, and they will even be stoned to death.

But if they are unmarried, if witness No. [-] retracts their confession, the two will be even less guilty.

Lu Qianxing would definitely try to beat the unmarried point, and his boss had already expected it.

Waiting by myself, I started to work on the train from before. Under the boss's instructions, I did a lot of homework. Everything will be clearly arranged for Lu Qianxing.

Over there, Lu Ming took the note from Richard's affairs officer and looked down.

Richard smiled and said: "150 and seven years ago, Chongquan Luo, the city lord of the state, once ruled that a woman's escape was an escape from marriage, and she was immersed in the river and drowned. The relationship between the woman and her husband is like the first witness and the second witness. , Moreover, the marriage is considered valid after only three years of cohabitation. Witness No. [-] and Witness No. [-] have lived together for more than ten years. According to this case, it should be considered that the two have a de facto marriage!"

Lu Ming shook his head and looked at Zhongquan Luo, "The city lord 150 years ago, with the posthumous title of Xiong, was the father of your great-grandfather, right?"

Richard was slightly taken aback, Lu Qianxing, do you know this case?Then why, do you want to call it unmarried?

What's wrong with this guy?

At the judge's bench, Zhongquan Luo immediately frowned upon hearing Lu Ming's words. Indeed, the city lord was his great-grandfather's grandfather, that is, his great-grandfather's father.

However, that ancestor did a lot of absurd things, and even provoked civil uprisings, and his reputation was very bad. At that time, there were only three White Flag MPs, all of whom were branches of his own family. Then, after the civil war, it became four White Flag MPs. The status of councilors and city lords is not as good as before.

Therefore, the posthumous title of that ancestor is the ugliest animal that the locals consider—the bear.

Lu Ming turned to Richard again, "Lawyer Richard, it seems that you have a deep misunderstanding of the laws of the states in the Western Regions. In fact, the laws of many city-states in the Western Regions focus on written documents rather than precedents. Previous precedents, let alone Authoritative, even if there is no point of reference, Bate City is just such a city-state."

"Nonsense!" Richard frowned.

Many lawyers in my own law firm have come to the Western Regions to fight lawsuits, and it is common to learn from precedents.

Lu Ming smiled: "That's the truth, Lawyer Richard, probably because most city-states in the Western Regions respect the authority of you and your law firm, so no one has ever refuted you before."

"Besides, because my Kingdom of Gryffinni is so powerful, almost all lawyers have been educated by previous cases since the first law class, and believe that these are universal truths and legal norms that are taken for granted. Therefore, there are almost no lawyers. One would think that in this world, there are still legal systems that do not value precedents."

Indeed, if I didn't have the knowledge of my previous life, but grew up in the East China Sea and mixed in its legal circle, I wouldn't feel that there are other reasonable legal systems.

Lu Ming said and shook his head: "Lawyer Richard, many of us lawyers are too arrogant, and we don't pay attention to the essence of the laws and regulations of other confederations, but I didn't expect that you are one of them."

He continued: "The late Lord Xiong actually did a lot of absurd things, and the cases he sentenced were considered more absurd than wise. How can you take it as the truth? Thanks to you guys who found this Jurisprudence, but don't you know more about him?"

Richard frowned, looked at Zhongquan Luo, and seeing his embarrassed expression, he knew that Lu Ming was right.

Looking at his legal team, those assistants, the smiles on their faces had long since froze, and they all lowered their heads, not daring to show their air.

Lu Ming continued: "Although the Bebbitt Code of Law is a thousand-year-old law, since it has not been abolished, it is the supreme code of law in this country. It expressly requires that both parties to a marriage must be legally registered in order to obtain the protection of the Blood Dragon God."

"Lawyer Richard, you definitely don't know what the Blood Dragon God is. In fact, it's similar to the Son-Sending Avalokitesvara in the legend of our Central Continent people."

"So, as stated in the code, it also tacitly assumes that if a man and a woman have not registered their property, even if they have lived together for 1 years, they will not be protected by the Dragon God and will not have legal heirs, that is, the two parties are not legally married. "

Lu Ming was talking, and looked at Zhongquan Luo: "City Lord, according to the code, Hashan is an unmarried woman, right? Or does the City Lord think that the Bertie code is no longer authoritative?"

Zhongquan Luo's face was green and pale, and he looked at the chieftains who were gradually quieting down in the auditorium, and finally nodded: "Yes, Lawyer Lu is right, according to the laws of this state, Hashan is an unmarried commoner."

If you don't recognize the authority of the Beret Code, those extremely conservative and paranoid among these chieftains are afraid that they will riot soon.

"Your Honor, I request an adjournment and we will continue in the afternoon!" Richard stood up again.

"There is still enough time, I hope the trial will continue!" Lu Ming smiled and pointed to the clock on the wall, "It's only past eleven o'clock."

In February, near the Bate city-state, it is only dawn at eight or nine o'clock, the court opens at ten o'clock, and lunch is usually two or three o'clock.

Richard bowed slightly to Zhongquan Luo: "My lord, I just came here, and I'm not used to day and night. In my hometown, it's lunch time now. I didn't have enough food in the morning, and now I'm very hungry."

Lu Ming smiled, "Okay, being hungry is a problem, how about this, I have bread for Lawyer Richard, I think it's okay to adjourn the court for 10 minutes, although my questioning has been interrupted, It's very unreasonable." As he spoke, Lu Ming looked at Zhongquan Luo, "Your Honor, I hope you will uphold justice."

Zhongquan Luo glanced at Richard and the others, probably never dreaming that the lawyer Dong Hailu seemed powerless after listening to the plaintiff's extremely fierce accusation all yesterday afternoon.

But he didn't want to, when he really stood up to speak, Fira Petroleum was said to have hired the empire's legendary barristers who were the most capable of handling criminal cases with a lot of money. Those who were directly suppressed by him had no power to fight back and could only rely on adjournment Stand firm.

Even I can't do anything about it myself. If I don't follow Lawyer Lu's train of thought and admit that he is right, I'm afraid that most of the three-color councilors present will stand up and directly rebel against themselves.

"A 10-minute adjournment!" Chongquan Luo knocked on the gavel vigorously.

……

Temporary lounge.

Richard was losing his temper and had just dropped a thick stack of files on the floor.

Hazan and the dog trembled in the corner with fright.

The lawyers were even more silent.

Although it was true that Richard sent his temper to the assistant lawyers, but more importantly, he wanted to make an example of others. He turned his head to look at Hazan and the local dog, and was about to speak.

There was a sudden noise outside, and then, the door was pushed open, and Lu Mingshi walked in abruptly, while Richard's affairs officer and bodyguards who were blocking the door were pushed aside by several burly men.

"What are you doing?!" Richard's face sank suddenly.

Lu Ming smiled: "It's nothing, I'm here to bring you bread. Besides, according to the local regulations, it didn't say that lawyers from both sides are not allowed to visit during the adjournment period, right? Of course, after the trial is over, you can file a complaint with Zhong Quan Luo, maybe , I will be fined 10 yuan? 50 yuan?" He said, throwing a paper bag in his hand on the table.

Richard's face sank, "Lu Qianxing, I used to respect you..."

Lu Ming waved his hand: "That's not necessary. I have lost respect for you since I was a child in the Renault lawsuit. I remember that I told you this a long time ago."

Richard nodded slowly, and slowly sat back in the chair, looking at Lu Ming with a cold look in his eyes.

Perhaps, from this moment, he has already regarded the arrogant and domineering young man in front of him as a real mortal enemy.

Lu Ming looked completely unaware, leaning against the wall, twirling his fingers, watching his fingers play with his eyes.

In the room, there was silence.

Those assistant lawyers really didn't know how to react.

Only now did he deeply realize that this Lu Qianxing was really at the same level as Richard's, and that he behaved pervertedly, which made Richard feel like he was dying.

The clock on the wall was ticking.

Richard smiled suddenly, tore open the paper bag, took out the bread from it and ate it.

The assistant lawyers looked at this scene in amazement.

Suddenly someone knocked on the door, "It's time."

Lu Ming smiled, and stood up straight against the wall, "Okay, Lawyer Richard seems to be full, I specially asked for this bread from Lord Zhongquan Luo, I haven't opened it, it should taste good Right? It’s impossible for there to be impurities or someone has drugged it, right? Lawyer Richard, if you’re going to have a stomachache in a while, I’m going to have a good discussion with Zhongquan Luo. Could it be that he and you are trying to kill me? "

Richard snorted coldly, "The heart of a villain!"

Lu Ming smiled without saying a word.

……

In the court, because Lu Ming didn't finish asking questions, Hashan sat on the witness stand again.

Lu Ming walked to the witness stand and bowed slightly to Zhongquan Luo, "Your Honor, it is very good that this court recognizes the authority of the Burbitt Code, but before that, I request the pardon of Harsha and the dog. Cohabitation among unmarried people is a crime in the Bertibet Code. I heard that the custom 200 years ago, cohabitation without marriage, all property would be confiscated. People, they no longer go to register property, but quietly give some benefits to the guard, so as to avoid being levied fair property fees. Speaking of it, this is also caused by the indulgence of several generations of the city lord's ancestors, so I hope this court will pardon Ha At the same time, all unmarried cohabitants in this city will be pardoned for their crimes, and they will be given a few days to go to the four city guards to register."

Zhongquan Luo nodded: "Tonight, the city will issue an amnesty order."

Lu Ming nodded: "The City Lord is very open-minded, and I believe that Bate City will be extremely prosperous in the future."

For some reason, Zhongquan Luo was inexplicably relieved to be praised by this arrogant young oriental dignitary.

Moreover, Lawyer Lu and Mayor Lu now feel completely different from when they first met him.

On the contrary, it was Richard and his legal team, why..., alas, I can only say that the strong are more powerful.

Lu Ming walked to the witness stand, looked at Ha Shan, and smiled: "Miss Ha Shan, you are an unmarried woman now, so you have complete freedom, even if you marry Mr. Liu Shoufu, no one can interfere, and, Don't worry, after you marry Mr. Liu Shoufu, I promise to protect the safety of you two, no one will persecute you if there is a chance, do you believe me?"

Luo Yi was translating.

Richard stood up abruptly, "I object, what the defendant's defense lawyer said has nothing to do with this case!"

Lu Ming smiled slightly at Hashan: "Don't pay attention to him at all, as I said, the local chicken Wagoer."

Hazan was dumbfounded, looking very dazed, apparently not knowing what happened, what did this lawyer suddenly mean by saying these words to himself.

But from the opening of the court this morning, from his attitude towards the people of the imperial capital, his attitude towards the city lord, and the arrogance of going to the lounge of the people of the imperial capital to rest in the middle of the trial.

There is no doubt that he is definitely not bragging, he is indeed a powerful figure.

Even the high and heavenly city lord, who was pointed at and scolded by his native maid, would only dare to give a verbal warning.

Lu Ming looked at Hashan, and said slowly: "Now, I'm asking you, you just need to answer me, are you willing to marry Mr. Liu Shoufu? I won’t blame you, you know how he treats you, so, even if he is convicted, are you willing to marry him? He is about to be sent to the guillotine, waiting to be beheaded, you are willing, as his wife, for Will he see him off? Send him the last meal, let him eat enough to go on the road, this is the most sacred ceremony before the death penalty for us Central Continents!"

Originally, Richard had already stood up, "No, witness No. [-] does not need to answer this question at all, because even if witness No. [-] retracts the confession, the crime of rape already exists objectively. !"

But listening to Lu Ming's words and seeing Zhongquan Luo's expression of not knowing what he was thinking, Richard frowned slightly and sat down.

"So, are you willing to be the one who sends Liu Shoufu, a lonely ghost, on his last journey?" Lu Ming asked Ha Shan softly, "For that bouquet of flowers? Or, that ray of light?"

With tears in his eyes, Hashan looked at Liu Laocai who was sitting in a daze in the dock with a pale face.

She nodded vigorously suddenly: "I am willing!...I am willing! I, I don't want him to die either!"

Lying on the witness stand, he suddenly burst into tears.

Without Luo Yi's translation, Lu Ming could understand what she was talking about.

Turning around, Lu Ming looked at Zhongquan Luo, "Your Honor, I now ask you to pardon Liu Shoufu's crime of rape, and allow Mr. Liu Shoufu and Ms. Hashan to marry, because according to Berbit's orchard hadith, when a man forced to marry Huan, if the woman is willing to marry him afterwards, and he agrees to marry, then there is no crime! That is, the crime of rape should be pardoned."

"Although some of the hadiths of the sages of Bobbitt have not been written into the Bobbitt code, the various stories circulated in the local area reflect the great wisdom contained in the hadiths!"

"Babbit's code, the first sentence in the opening chapter says that the hadith is the law! It is even more clear that every hadith passed down by the sages of Berbit has the force of law."

Some big and small chieftains in the auditorium have already echoed. They are all conservatives and attach great importance to the hadith.

Lu Ming continued: "At present, Ms. Hashan has agreed to marry Mr. Liu Shoufu, and my client, Mr. Liu Shoufu, is single in Donghai and his wife has passed away for a long time. He is willing to marry Miss Hashan as his wife. Therefore, Your Honor, I request You immediately dismiss the accusation against Mr. Liu Shoufu!"

Richard's legal team has already exploded, and they are all studying what is going on, some are flipping through books, and some are arguing with each other.

Richard said nothing, just sat quietly.

Chongquan Luo hesitated for a moment, but looked at the messy Richard lawyer team, shook his head, picked up the gavel and knocked hard, "This case is dismissed! Retire!"

Liu Laocai opened his eyes wide suddenly, almost thinking that he was dreaming.

Unlike in Donghai, when the lawsuit was won, no one gave him a warm hug, only Luo Yi held Ha Shan's hand and led Ha Shan to Liu Laocai.

The audience chieftains were a little surprised to hear that Liu Laocai was still single and willing to marry Ha Shan.

Looking at Ha Shan, she is just a lowly peasant woman, but she will become the wife of a wealthy businessman in the East China Sea from now on?It's just unbelievable.

Richard walked up to Lu Ming, with contempt in his eyes.

"These terrible and absurd bad habits? You have also studied them, and you brought them up in court and confirmed their rationality in court. Do you know what you are doing? How many women will there be in this city-state in the future, because you Competitiveness, and encounter a hellish nightmare?"

"Although I lost, I am very calm, and I am proud of it! And you, after returning to Donghai, did you still sleep well? If you can, then I admire you!"

"When the news is sent back to the civilized world, I think, even if I lose, I will face it with my head held high; you win, but you will be condemned by the conscientious media!"

Richard sneered.

Lu Ming looked at him very calmly: "Take back your hypocrisy! If you lose the lawsuit, you have to stand on the moral high ground to seek self-comfort. Don't you think that you are pathetic?"

"Although I can't tell you, what I can tell you is that this place will change. The chieftains who are applauding this judgment will soon find that this is not the restoration of the old tradition they imagined, but a new era. Start!"

"Eagles and sparrows never have intimate conversations, so, Lawyer Richard, I think our conversation can end."

"In addition, in this lawsuit, you didn't lose because of some ugly stereotypes that you don't understand, and you don't want to understand, but because you never tried to understand your client, and you didn't know your client at all haha Shan, what is in her best interest."

"You just want to defeat me to wash away your shame, and even more want to send my client to the guillotine to get a generous reward. Therefore, it is inevitable that you will lose the lawsuit."

With that said, Lu Ming spread his hands, "Then, shall we see you next time?"

Richard stared at Lu Ming, nodded, turned and walked out.

Looking at his back, Lu Ming let out a long breath.

To be honest, if it wasn’t for my previous life, my world is already in the 21st century, and there are still such absurd and terrible laws in some places. It is really difficult for me to find the clues from those hadiths, and then understand what the hadiths are mean.

No matter how strong Richard's lawyer team is, even if the hadith was placed in front of them, they would not be able to think of the mystery in it even if they broke their heads.

And these stereotypes and vulgar customs have always existed in the nearby city-states, but never, and there is no need to go to court.

The courts of the city lords of the nearby city-states that enforced the Burbitt Code and had such outmoded customs knew that this kind of law was shameful, so they would not hear such cases, it was all private.

Today, I have pierced through this layer of window paper.

The conservatives also applauded, thinking that they would dream of returning to the Qing Dynasty.

Seeing that they were all applauding around him in a very friendly way, Lu Ming also smiled at him, taking it as the honor that gravediggers deserve.

　A chapter of more than 8000 words, comrades, let's order a monthly pass!

　　
　
(End of this chapter)
