Chapter 28 The Li family who goes too far

Mencius said: "Zhongni is not one who is too selfish!" This means that Confucius always leaves room for things and never does anything excessive!

Could it be that the saint was just trying to prevent overcorrection?

The thinking of a saint is beyond the reach of others! This is the sage’s far-reaching insight after careful consideration!

Lao Tzu said: "If the people are not afraid of death, why should they be afraid of death?!" This means that since the people are no longer afraid of death, why should they use death to threaten them? !

In fact, no one is not afraid of death, including ordinary people. It’s only when you know you’re going to die that you have nothing to fear!

And once they reach that point, they can do anything unexpected!

It is said that during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, there was a wealthy family named Li in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province. His family relied on their wealth and power, and they were arrogant and arrogant. They did not get along harmoniously with their neighbors.

Therefore, his house was often stolen by thieves and robbed by robbers. Even if the neighbors knew about it, they would turn a blind eye and no one would interfere with their family's affairs.

After many times, although the Li family did not care about the lost property, they could not bear the disturbance. So he offered a huge reward and asked the government to arrest the robbers!

As the saying goes, there must be a brave man under a heavy reward! The government detectives spared no effort and hunted for more than half a year, and finally arrested all the thieves and robbers, and no one escaped the trap.

Soon, these gangsters were sentenced to death in the first trial and locked up in prison, waiting for the review to be completed and executed.

The thieves got the punishment they deserved, but the Li family hated these people so much that they didn't want to let them go easily even if they were sentenced to death.

There is a saying that goes: "I won't let you go even if I die!" It means: I can't kill you alive, but I will kill you even if I die and become a ghost!

But when it comes to the Li family, it becomes: You violated me, even if you are going to die, I will not let you go before you die! I want you to die badly!

So, the Li family took out a large amount of gold and silver, bribed the jailers, and asked them to try every means to torture the death row prisoners, making them unable to die and unable to survive.

The so-called taking people's money and doing things for them. The head jailer in the prison had benefited from the Li family, so naturally he wanted to fulfill their wish.

No matter what you do, professional things need to be handled by professional people.

When it comes to torturing prisoners on death row, the head jailer is undoubtedly the most professional.

They knew that if they tortured prisoners on death row in private and the superiors found out, they would be held accountable.

However, this does not bother them.

These jailers have many ways to torture prisoners without causing them any injuries.

They half-hang the prisoners so that their feet do not leave the ground, making them unable to stand or sit firmly. They do not let them lie down when sleeping, so they hang like that, which is extremely uncomfortable!

Prisoners were not allowed to go to the toilet to relieve themselves, so they were forced to defecate in their crotches.

It was the height of summer, and the feces and urine were all in the crotch, and maggots soon appeared.

Those maggots were crawling all over my thighs, it was disgusting.

However, the jailers did not let them die and provided them with food and water for every meal.

The prisoners endured torture like this, which was worse than death.

Knowing that it was the Li family's idea, the prisoners hated the Li family to death!

They discussed privately: We have stolen property. According to the law, regardless of the principal or accomplice, we have been sentenced to death. Why do the Li family still torture us like this?

Everyone thinks that they must find some way to take revenge and make life difficult for the Li family!

After some deliberation, the prisoners thought of a way to retaliate against the Li family.

They all know that gang rape of a woman is punishable by death regardless of the principal and accomplices!

Anyway, they have already been sentenced to death. If they commit one more crime, they will not be killed twice, let alone cut into pieces!

Even if the body is cut into thousands of pieces and the people are already dead, who cares about that!

As a result, the prisoners unified their voices, and when they were brought to court for review, they unanimously confessed: While robbing the Li family's property, they gang-raped all the women in their family, young and old!

There was an uproar in public opinion!

Of course, the government will not record what the prisoners say, they will record it. However, all the prisoners spoke the same words and confessed, and some even described the horrific gang rape process, which made them not believe it.

During the trial, there were so many government officials above the hall and more people listening to the trial below, all of whom heard the prisoner's confession.

This spread quickly, and soon the news spread that all the women in the Li family had been gang-raped.

The Li family is usually very overbearing and unreasonable, and there are countless people in the neighborhood who hate their family. At this time, he stood up and fanned the flames.

As a result, everyone in Xi'an City knew: all the women in the Li family had been gang-raped by thieves!

The thieves had robbed the Li family's belongings and were already sentenced to death. However, the Li family could not let go of their hatred. They did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to hire people to torture them in all kinds of ways, making them worse than death, just because they raped a woman of the Li family. , this is the murderous move.

As for the thieves, thieves are also wise. They originally took the face of the Li family into consideration and did not confess this scandal during the first trial. Who knew that the Li family would torture them so cruelly, and they hated the Li family to death.

They were all dying anyway, so they spoke out without any scruples.

Only then did the Li family know what it means to make money with everyone's opinions, and then destroy all the bones! If you want to stand up and clarify the facts, you can be afraid of what others say. Everyone's words are reasonable and well-founded. It doesn't matter who is right or wrong anymore!

People only believe that all the women in the Li family are innocent!

The reputation of the Li family has been tarnished for nothing, and the impact must be restored first, but there is no way to save it. I can't help but regret what I did before!

The Li family paid a reward to catch the thief, but the thief was punished and did not hate the Li family; the thief was beaten severely during the interrogation, and even if the thief was imprisoned and tortured day and night, they would not hate the Li family.

Because they knew they had broken the law, the government also handled the case in accordance with the law.

But the Li family relied on their wealth to pay people to torture them in all kinds of ways, which was outside the law.

Of course, the prisoners were unwilling to give up. They hated the Li family and bit back, causing the Li family to suffer mental torture!

Therefore, Confucius said that nothing should be done excessively, which is very reasonable!

It's like throwing a stone and hitting it. If you hit it too hard, the stone will bounce back and hurt you!

And the Li family, relying on their family's wealth and power, wanted to bully the prisoners who had been sentenced to death for a quick gain, but they never expected to suffer backlash and let their family's reputation be tarnished for generations. Isn't this going too far? What are the consequences? !

A saint is a saint!

The thoughts of saints are deeper than those of ordinary people!
