Vol 7 Chapter 44: About trial

Davers waited for a moment, and his ears were silent.
He looked up and stared at Kunogolata, his eyes closed and motionless, and his heart was amazed.
He knew that this old man who had worked hard for the establishment and growth of Dionia was gone...
..........................................
"... Teacher Lucias defended and said, 'The Sikels are our allies of Dionia. The elders of the kingdom and the emissaries of the alliance are privately banned. They are not prohibited by law. On the contrary, every year to the alliance of Turai And the Gentile messengers, before they officially met King Duffs and the Senate, they usually contacted the well-known veterans to understand the situation of the kingdom and asked them to speak for their own city. This has become a practice. Why are other veterans, These are normal contacts, but to La Odesian has become a sinner who sells the interests of the kingdom?!'
The public prosecutor, Froclyon, immediately rebutted, saying that 'La Odison personally met foreign envoys, received huge sums of money and gold, and spoke at the Senate meeting, not focusing on the interests of the kingdom, but every time it was Taknik. The interests of the An tribe speak, which makes the Tanikean tribe's repeated and repeated annexation of the tribe's robbery did not attract the attention of the Senate. Now its power has grown to threaten our fertile Catania plain. Safety! If this is not a treason, then what is treason! ‘After finishing, he also produced a lot of evidence of La Odesian’s acceptance of bribes, as well as his excerpted record of talking to the Tanikon tribe in the Senate...

"The evidence is solid, how is your teacher defending?" Cynthia asked curiously.

The teacher of Lucias said without hesitation, 'The kingdom law does not prohibit the veteran from accepting gifts from the visitors. Although the case is not so obvious after the case of Polixis, it is not uncommon, especially in the post. The elders of the city's chief executive, who did not go alone when they took office, two or three big carriages were full when they left office! The veterans have a good impression on the gift givers and it is not uncommon to say good things in the Senate, if the Senate Opening the records of its meetings, I believe that the public will find such a large number of cases, so the act of La Odesian is not illegal. As for the Taknikian tribe threatening the security of the territory, I am afraid this should not be blamed. Odyssein. The suggestion is one thing. The final proposal is passed. It is necessary to make a decision after all the veterans of the Senate are negotiating. Why are all the veterans not aware of Taknikian’s conspiracy?...'

Awesome defense!
Clithista sighed and curiously asked:
How did Lucias explain about La Odesian’s possession of land in the Sikels?

"He said that there is no conclusive evidence for this incident. It is also possible that the slaves saw the master fall, and exaggerated the facts in order to merit, not as evidence of the judgment." Croto Kataks replied.
"This is a bit of a sophistry." Clithista frowned slightly and said: "The fields are all in the West Kel, and it is impossible to go in for evidence."
"The teacher has no way. In the face of so much evidence, and the audience of the entire court are screaming at La Disian's traitor, he can only do everything he can to reverse the situation."
Just as Klotok Katex was defending Lucias, the backyard door was pushed open, and Daves, who had been quietly listening at the door for a while, walked into the garden.
"Father!" Klotok Katex and Cynthia shouted in unison.
"How is the adult of Kuno Gorata?" Clithista asked with concern. She remembered that in the morning, Daves was rushing to hear the news that "Kourogolata was getting worse and getting into a coma." Go out.
"He went to Elysee..." Daves said faintly.
The three people who talked about immediately fell into silence.
For a moment, Christovia asked: "When do you have a funeral?"
"After a few days, his family needs to be prepared. After all, it will be a great funeral. At that time, we have to go, the veterans have to go. Kuno Gorata has done for Diaonia. Huge contribution, he will be in the Pantheon!" Daves said in a deep voice, his words can be regarded as the conclusion of Kunogola Tower.
Clithista immediately understood her husband's intention: "I have been preparing for the kids with my parents in the past few days."
Daves nodded and looked at the son who stood by the side and asked, "Is going to the court today?"
"Yes, father."
"How is the result?"
"The jury finally ruled that the veterans such as La Odesian and Lacey Peratos did not trespass, but committed guilty of malfeasance. Judge Trito de Moss sentenced La Odesian and Lacy Peratos to three years in prison. The other few are one or two years, and the proceeds of bribery are confiscated, and the amount of fines is fine. However, in the end, you need your father to make the final decision (this is after the transformation of the Union of Dionya into the kingdom, Give the king a power and responsibility.)
"Do you think I am going to return this judgment and ask for a retrial? Or do you agree with this judgment?" Davers looked at his son and asked.
Croto Kataks knew that this was his father who was testing him. He immediately convinced his mind and thought for a while, seriously answering: "I think we should agree with this judgment!"
"Oh?"
"Because in this trial, no one has perjury and no one is smuggling. The trial is conducted in a fair and just environment. Even before the start, the audience are clamoring to severely punish the traitors. This has affected the jury. Judgment, but at the end of the day, even the audience no longer quarreled and agreed with the judgment made by the court. Father, I don’t know if this judgment is in line with your expectations, but it is in accordance with the provisions of the Law of Dionia. Under the procedure, in accordance with the legal provisions of Dionia, the final judgment of the jury accepts this judgment, which is to respect the sacred "Dyonia law" that you have led by you for more than a decade -"
"Croto, how can you talk to your father in this tone!" Clytoya, who was on the side, immediately whispered.
Daves smiled happily: "You have such insights, I am very happy! As a king, you can't be free to chaos, you must also abide by the law, you must know how to fear the law, only the king has done a demonstration. Citizens will not be chaotic, and the state’s order will be guaranteed!"
"Yes, father." Croto Kataks replied with respect.
Clithista smiled at her husband and looked at her son. How could she not know that her husband was educating his son as the future king?
Cynthia is also happy for her brother. Although her younger brother is the oldest son of Daves, she never thinks that Davers will pass the throne to Adoris. After all, he is just a adopted child, Crowe Torto has the true blood of Hades.
"Do you know why I have the final decision?" Davers asked again.
This sentence can be asked about Croto Katex, he thought for a while, and he stopped talking.
Davers understood what he was thinking and asked: "Children, do you think that I am guilty of this ruling?"
Croto Kataks changed his face and shook his head.
Davers smiled: "The legal item is dead, the human heart is alive, and the trial criminal is a human being. How can it be completely fair and just?! Moreover, although the law is sacred, it is not complete. In line with the morals recognized by the public."

Completely in line with the morality recognized by the public?

Davers saw his son as if he knew it, and explained: "For example, this time the judgments of these Sicilian veterans are in accordance with the laws of Dionia, but they have caused more harm and loss to the kingdom than they did. In the past few years of imprisonment, a war is about to take place in Sicily. If the measures are not right, there will be wars again and again. Do you think that imprisonment in just two or three years is too easy for them? For example, tomorrow will be interrogated. The son of La Odesian, Paphos, the demon who once killed five or six girls!"
Daves said that there, both Christopher and Cynthia on the side were angry.
"If you let Lucias defend him, with his ability, it is very likely that the murderer will be exempted from the death penalty, because the laws of Dionia have no clear rules for killing slaves and free people, but this is not the case. Is it in line with the conscience of our hearts? Does it conform to the gods of Hades?!"
"Father, this person is very sinful, and the people want him to go to and accept the judgment of the three judges!" Cynthia, who has always been gentle, intervened at this time.
"The teacher Lucias did not seem to accept the request to defend the person." Klotok Katex said in a hurry.
"If that's the case, Lucias is still wise and calm, otherwise he will stink even if he defends successfully." Daphus said to his son seriously: "Look, Devonian Law." There are still defects. On the one hand, we need to improve the law~EbookFREE.me~ On the other hand, we have to hold the final decision. When we find obvious errors in the judgment, we will re-request the trial to make the final result meet the vast majority. The morality that the people agree with..."
After listening to Croto Katax, he thought for a while and hesitated and asked: "Father... You just said that 'the heart is alive', but you have the final decision... How to guarantee yourself... Not selfish?"
Deavers glanced.
Clithista shouted again: "Croto!"
Daves waved his hand to stop his wife's swearing, patiently and proudly said: "Children, you have the courage to think, dare to question, not blindly, I am very happy, indicating that your study in the school is not in vain! I tell you, relative to the kingdom People, I am the most selfish, because I am a king, the whole kingdom is my home, how can I allow those who violate the law to destroy my home and steal my wealth! If I have selfishness, then this Selfishness is to protect the prosperity and stability of the kingdom, and -"
Looking at the young son, he said in a deep voice: "Maintain the Davos family's rule in the kingdom! Therefore, we can transcend the interests of ordinary people in the trial and treat the judgments fairly and fairly. The more we can keep Fair and just, the more you can get the support of the people of the kingdom."
