Throughout history, although life and death were in the hands of the emperor, there was still a set of laws governing the country, which were humanized. The dynasty was the Song Dynasty.

The song dynasty was very strict with the judicial review system. Anyone who was sentenced to beheading had to complain before execution, and the beheading would be terminated.
Moreover, it is necessary for another official to re-examine the case immediately, and it is necessary for the presiding officer to evade the stipulation that each person can shout three times at most.
If someone deliberately makes trouble to make the prisoner complain, he will be punished with the prisoner. If the prisoner is really wronged, the prisoner will have a chance.
Other dynasties will not be as humane and strict as the Song Dynasty.
For example, the death penalty was reviewed three times in the Sui Dynasty and five times in the Tang Dynasty. Once the death penalty is approved, it will not change!
At this moment, the execution ground supervisor is none other than Ran Min, and the deputy supervisor is Wuxian county magistrate.
"It’s time for adults" on one side of the county magistrate trembling tunnel
Xu Wei nodded his head and looked at the sun hanging high in the sky. When he saw the sundial again, it was sure that this was the right time.
This sundial is an ancient standard clock, and it won’t go wrong too much. It won’t go wrong (fake) if it’s less time.
When a sundial is judged by the direction of the sun’s shadow, its base is usually circular, and a stick is erected at the center. When the sun shines on the sundial, the shadow of the stick at the center corresponds to the base.
There seems to be nothing wrong with this method, but there are still some time errors, but people are used to it in this era, just as Chinese people are used to "BJ time" later.
"Check the body!"
As Xu Wei made a crowd suddenly stir up, there were ten chief officers who pretended to look at the appearance of the ten death row prisoners and then looked at the portraits in their hands. After confirming the mistakes, they all reported to Xu Wei.
People who didn’t know about it asked.
"Who is the government going to kill?"
"hey! Dude, you just came to watch the fun, right? Wuxian has a big problem! I don’t know what caused it. Yesterday, the chief officer poisoned himself in the mansion, and the city was in a mess! It is said that it is because the tax accounts are not in collusion with officials and businessmen that the government can pay taxes at a big discount! "
"Patrol to wuxian emperor positions and face great anger to scrutiny! Who doesn’t know this ability of the Royal Guards? In this investigation, 130 people will be beheaded, their families will all be exiled to Liaodong to reclaim land, and those officials involved will be exiled from office even if they are not dead, and merchants will never be recorded. They will also be confiscated and sent to Liaodong Tunbian. "
"So the court wants to kill more than 100 people in one breath!" The unsuspecting young man took a gasp.
"Who said it wasn’t?"
"Tax this piece that is made the court taboo made positions taboo! See these 130 people who are about to be beheaded? More than half of them are Jiangdong Tusi brothers, and many of them are Wu Jun local officials. "
"ooh The imperial court executed so many officials in one breath. Isn’t Wu Jun confused? "
"Do you want to have more big Wei officials and talents? That root can’t be killed. When they are executed, someone else will take their place. "
No matter how many people are talking at the bottom, as soon as Xu Wei, the beheading officer, arrives at 3: 00 noon, he throws an arrow in his hand and says, "Execute!"
The executioner’s hands immediately clenched the ghost Dao, took a sip of wine and sprayed it on the blade with wine to wipe it, then pressed the prisoner’s head and cut it off!
"Ah!" The screams are endless.
The ghost knife is sharper or the executioner’s hand is better, which can cut the death row’s head neatly and make them beheaded, while the executioner’s hand is worse. If you cut one knife before you die, you will be tortured to death.
This bloody scene made Xu Wei feel sick and uncomfortable, but he still held back.
Then ten more criminals were taken to the execution ground and beheaded.
Those bodies that have been beheaded have been carried away and the death penalty is still in progress.
Blood is either dried up or fresh blood is flowing in the execution ground, and yellow and white things have infiltrated into the soil, which makes people feel a tingling scalp.
Among the executed prisoners, there are more arrogant people, such as this Wuzhong Zhu’s brother.
"Suddenly and violently wei tao! The tyrant will return to Sima’s family sooner or later! You rogue eagles and dogs will all die a natural death! I am waiting for that day! Wait for that day! Ha ha ha ha! Die a natural death! You all die a natural death! ……”
Xu Wei nu got up and said, "kill! Kill him! "
I don’t know how to write the word "dead" when I’m very close to death and dare to talk nonsense here!
This fellow was hacked to death soon, and in order to get back at him, the executioner also hacked to death with four knives.
