Chapter 974 Conversation in front of the Emperor

Rebecca Wenders's "spiritual ritual" was published in the form of a brief on the front page of The Sun. Once it was exposed, it immediately caused a sensation in the city.

Now, the center of this public opinion storm is no longer the previously accused Maxim Wenders, but the ***** cavalry lieutenant colonel Jack Feiffer.

Although it has been criticized by public opinion, according to the laws of the Kingdom of Feizhen, "adultery" is not a felony. Jack Feiffer does not even need to go to jail for it, but is only morally condemned by society.

According to ancient tradition, an insulted husband can challenge his wife's lover to a duel.

Maxim Wenders himself is not capable of challenging the notorious "Sledgehammer" Feiffer.

As his agent, Musk was deeply involved in the investigation of this case. After being indignant about Mr. Wenders's experience, he asked Judge Colt to approve Lieutenant Colonel Feiffer's application for a duel that had not been withdrawn in time.

Jack Favre has been jumping up and down in the guise of seeking justice for his cousin, but he has concealed from the public his evil intentions of having an affair with Rebecca, trying to have a surrogate child, and seizing the Wenders family's property. If this scum escapes sanctions, not to mention Mr. Wenders, Musk himself will not be able to swallow this breath!

Since this shameless man took the initiative to initiate a duel, let him taste the taste of shooting himself in the foot!

Musk acted entirely out of passion, which actually posed a difficult problem to Judge Colt.

It doesn't matter if two men duel privately, but if they have an open judicial duel, things will be more troublesome.

Today is no longer a barbaric era advocating "tooth for tooth" and "blood for blood". Courts usually do not approve this kind of judicial duel of jealous nature.

This behavior is exactly the opposite of what legal scholars have always ridiculed, "trying to maintain the fragile self-esteem of male chauvinists in a wrong and dangerous way."

Especially after a famous poet died in a judicial duel with his love rival, the country's literary and artistic circles suffered a great loss. In the past five years, all duel applications caused by jealousy and adultery have been rejected by the court.

If it was just jealousy that was common in social circles, the court would not change the practice.

However, the "Wenders murder case" was too big and had a bad impact. Just like the last "Dreyfus spy case", it has become a public event that shocked the whole country of Feizhen. If it is suppressed, it will definitely cause a strong backlash in the public opinion circle, and even make the public lose confidence in the justice of the country's laws.

As the saying goes, "legal principles are nothing more than human feelings." Even the biggest laws cannot go against public anger, let alone the views of a group of jurists who study "spherical chickens in a vacuum" all day long. Otherwise, it will shake the foundation of rule and dig their own graves.

As the public opinion became more and more intense, even His Majesty the King was alarmed.

At the court tea party held on the weekend, His Majesty George III specifically talked about this most concerned case with the cabinet's legal secretary, the Marquis of Porter.

The conversation between His Majesty and the minister was recorded by the clerk, sorted and polished, and published on the front page of the Avalon Daily on the next day in the form of a dialogue.

One of the conversations involving the "Rebecca case" is recorded as follows:

George III: Yesterday afternoon, when I was doing farm work in the garden, Emily came to visit me with a basket of tea and snacks.

George III: Later, we had tea and snacks under the tree and saw an ivy wrapped around the tree. My naive daughter thought that the ivy tightly wrapped around the tree was like a pair of men and women in love, worthy of poetry and praise, but I had to tell her that the ivy was a harmful plant parasitic on the tree. It absorbs nutrients from the tree to make itself bloom beautiful flowers, like a blood-sucking worm. If this symbolizes love, it is also a kind of morbid love based on inequality.

George III: I didn't mean to say something to spoil Emily's mood, but at her age, it's easy for her to have unrealistic romantic fantasies about love. Only when she hits a wall in the face of cruel reality will she realize her naivety. I hope my daughter can mature and learn to be strong before she suffers setbacks, so I tore off the ivy wrapped around the tree in front of her.

* King George III of Feizhen: He lives a simple life and loves to do farm work in his spare time. He is nicknamed "Farmer King".

* Princess Emily: George III's youngest daughter and the most beloved daughter of His Majesty.

Marquis Porter: My Majesty, your insights are not only very helpful in educating children, but also inspire me, reminding me of the "Feffer v. Wenders murder case" that has recently caused a sensation in the city.

George III: I have also heard about this case. As the investigation progresses, the inside story revealed is full of twists and turns and surprising.

Marquis Porter: My Lord, don't you think that the relationship between Lord Wenders and his ex-wife Rebecca is like that between a tree and ivy? It is the latter who is dependent on the former, but she is cruelly exploiting her husband, sucking blood from him, and blooming a charming poisonous flower that attracts bees and butterflies.

George III: My Lord, your words are very much in line with my opinion. Fortunately, the truth of the case has been clarified, and Lord Wenders can finally get rid of the lawsuit for killing his wife and restore his reputation.

Marquis Porter: Your Majesty, so far, it is not a happy ending. In this case, there is still a clown who has not been punished.

George III: My Lord, are you referring to Lieutenant Colonel Favre who falsely accused Lord Wenders of killing his wife?

Marquis Porter: Your Majesty, please forgive my verbosity. Some details must be made clear.

Marquis Porter: First of all, Jack Favell had an affair with his cousin Rebecca, which was morally corrupt and against human ethics. He has been expelled from the army, stripped of all titles and honors, and is no longer an active cavalry officer; secondly, although I despise Favell's character, there is no evidence that he sued Lord Wenders knowing that his cousin died in an accident, so the false accusation is not established.

George III: In other words, apart from revoking Favell's military position, we can't impose a more severe punishment on him?

Marquis Porter: From a legal point of view, I'm afraid so.

George III: This is really regrettable! Perhaps we should do something to prevent such incidents from happening again.

Marquis Porter: Your Majesty, my colleagues in the legal department and I have the same plan. It's time to legislate to fill the loophole of "adultery".

George III: My dear sir, under the banner of the Constitution, I am not in a position to interfere with the legislative process of Parliament. Let us put this topic aside and return to the original topic. If Parliament amends the penalty for adultery, can it be applied to Febvre?
