Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Vol 6 Chapter 25: Public trial and new bill

Trito de Moss slammed the bronze bell: "The accused, the last time to warn you! Then make wild guesses and accusations, this court will forbid you to talk again!"

Polluxes was busy swallowing his words back, looking back at the jury, and wondering if they were influenced by what he deliberately said. By now, he feels that he may be more and more embarrassed.

Aristocratic took out a papyrus and said to the jury: "This paper records the amount of property patrolled by the patrol to the house of Polixis. Fortunately, Polluxs did not deposit the money. Banks (At that time, the credibility of the Christopher Bank was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. In order to prevent the loss of property, the people deposited their belongings in the bank. They only need to pay a very low custodial fee each year, they can use it at any time, and use the certificate issued by the bank. It is very convenient to use the various cashiers in the territory of Dionia, and it is very convenient, so it is very popular. Polluxs refused to deposit money because the bank was opened by the Daphus family. Into the bank), so the patrol members and the servants of the house, as well as a small number of people who watched the lively and mistakenly entered the government can be witnesses. The total number of these goods is --"

Aristotle was deliberately paused, facing the thousands of double-focused eyes under the stage, and said loudly and clearly: "22 Talente 45 Mingna!"

The audience exclaimed again and again.

Aristotle is also adding: "As far as I know, Polissis, you have no income other than the income of 15 acres of land."

Polluxs argued forcibly: "There are many of them that are me... my grandfather and father are left behind..."

Aristocratic sneer smiled: "Why can you mostly have Hades silver coins in your home? (refers to the silver coins issued after the establishment of the Union of Dionia, because the head of Hades is engraved on the front. Famous) I asked your family, you can't exchange coins from the bank."

Aristotle's words blocked the lie that Polksis had come up with. Under his anger, he yelled: "Daveus's money is much more than mine. Why don't you check if he has any problems? !"

There was a buzz under the stage.

Aristotle is also laughing: "You see, I don't need to talk to me, the eyes of the people are bright. The industry of Dafos's family is very clear to everyone. The Christopher Bank has very low interest rates. How many Dionian citizens have helped me! How many shops are going to be bankrupted!"

"Yes, that's it!"

"Good heart Christopher!"

......

The people rushed to shout, and the anger that had to erupt before seemed to disappear without a trace. Therefore, Trito de Moss was happy to see it, and did not interrupt Aristotle's speech.

“Restaurants and large baths not only make the lives of the people better, but also make the city of Turui the ‘the most attractive city of Greece’...”

"Young people, you are right!"

"Daves adults have brought pride to Turui!"

......

"In addition, the money earned by Davers is not stored at home like you. He donates money, built a temple, and is building a library, stone bridge..."

"Is Stone Bridge also the money donated by Daphus? I really don't know."

"I heard that after the library was built, Daphus would also give a large number of precious books to the library."

"You Turifs are really lucky! Like I want to read a book, I have to come from Crimea..."

"Maybe one day, Master Davers will donate a library to Crimea."

......

When the audience talked about it, Trito de Moss asked: "The defendant, what else do you want to defend?"

Polluxis is like a drowning man who wants to make the final struggle. He even said: "Yes! Yes! My family used to have 350 acres of land in the city of Turui. This is true! I have a title in my home! Since Davis came, I... I voluntarily gave up all the land and only owned the 15 mu of land. I made such a big concession for Tunisia for Turui, is it everyone... Shouldn't you consider the loss of my family?!"

"Even if there really are these so-called title deeds--" Aristocratic looked at Polissis's unspeakable look, knowing that he had been chaotic, and his heart was more confident: "I hope the defendant wants to understand a little, After Rotonet destroyed the city of Turui, the old city of Turui no longer existed, and the original government ceased to exist. The contracts signed by the city hall of Tuli were of course invalidated. Master Davers led the army to defeat the Crotones. Did the original Turifs still dare to live in Turui? Obviously, they could not be forced to wander to other city-states, and even survived. Not to mention owning land..."

Having said that, Aristotle is a bit heavy, and then he raises his voice: "So today, although the city of Turui is still called Turui, it is not the original city of Turui, it is wearing Part of the Onia Union is the center of Dionia!"

"That's right, the current Turui has nothing to do with the previous ones. I still want to occupy more than 300 acres of farmland, it is a dream!"

"A person like you, a greedy person, Hades will definitely let you go to hell, let the madman of Radha Mandas beat you!"

......

In the sarcasm of the people, Polluxs seemed to have been exhausted with all his strength and sat back in the wooden chair.

Trito de Moss looked at him and said: "People in the audience should be quiet! Now the jury voted to decide whether the defendant is guilty!"

After that, the orderer immediately placed an hourglass on the judge's desk, and the jury citizens had to make a decision before the hourglass was dripped.

Each of them had two bronze medals in their hands, one engraved with "guilty" and one with "no sin", and almost no hesitation. The jury members quickly put a bronze medal in their hands into the copper cans at the table.

"Hey! Hey! Hey!..." The crisp sound was like a hammer hitting the heart of Pollux.

After waiting for the vote to end, the order leader walked over and began to sing the ticket. He took a bronze medal from the can and showed it to the members of the jury. He said in his mouth: "Sinful!... guilty!... guilty!..."

Every time I heard it, the audience cheered, and the face of Pollux was pale.

The result came out: 50 votes were found guilty and no one abstained. (If it happens to be 25 votes guilty and 25 votes innocent, then the judge in court has the final decision.)

The audience suddenly cheered and the Polisian face was gray.

Next, it is easier to judge the elders of Orpheus, Marcy Sakus, En Anilus, Olympus, and some nobles and public officials. In the face of iron-based evidence, everyone was found guilty.

However, the collective crimes of so many veterans and public officials have made the people present there feel fear and anger. In the end, the shouts in the square demanding "a comprehensive investigation of the Senate and public officials, and the crime of public property crimes of the Union of Corruption" resounded throughout the city.

The snoring came to the ears of the veterans of the Senate and they were shocked. Daves, who is proposing a bill to the Senate, smiled.

..............................

The public trial on this day continued until the end of the evening. Since the end, many people spontaneously ran to the front door of the Senate's Great Hall in front of the square and protested to the elders.

After the meeting, the veterans had to retreat quickly from the back door. When they came out, they all looked dignified.

"After the enactment of the new bill, the power of our Senate can be greatly restricted! Davers adults also have the heart to propose such a bill, what good for him!" Stromboli said with dissatisfaction.

"Daveus is right to do this! You listen to the shouts of the people in the square--" Cornelus pointed to his rear and sighed: "It is time to give citizens the right to participate in politics. Previously we At the time of Amendo Lala~www.novelmtl.com~ Isn't that always the case? You haven't experienced it yet. Why do you feel that you are not used to it now?!"

Stromboli stunned and thought about it and said, "I think that the system is quite good now, at least you don't have to worry about when it will suddenly be accused by citizens, not to worry that things have just been done halfway. Because the term of one year is over, it is terminated without being selected. In the Union of Dionia, I can do a detailed investigation of the matter to be done, then plan, and then concentrate on it step by step to achieve it... Now, a group of people who care only about their own interests and know nothing about it can also pinpoint our affairs!"

Such similar words continue to occur between the veterans who rushed back to the city.

Marigi and Plesinus are behind.

"Mariji, why do the governors want to propose such a bill? You must know that the anger of those citizens is not directed at him! I know very well in the temple, most of them are full of respect for the adults." Plesin Nass couldn’t help but say the doubts in her heart.

Mariji haha ​​smiled and whispered: "Your question has already been said."

Plesinus is more confused.

Mariji looked up and looked at the sunset that had already hidden behind the mountain. His eyes were stunned and seemed to be thinking back. Finally he murmured: "...the Greeks have been away from the Wangzheng era for too long, obviously they don’t know the king. What is important?"

The obvious metaphor of "being a king" did not surprise Plesinus. He thought about it carefully and still had no way to go.

In the mouth of Mariji, he spit out a word: "Balance!"

.................................

It was evening, the night shrouded the city of Turui, and the city’s Cly Stoia restaurant was full of candles, and the diners were full of fun.
