Chapter 36

Prefecture, hall.

Liu biaogao sat on the throne, his eyes fell on wenpin, and asked, "Zhongye, what's the result of the search?"

Wenpin waved: "bring it in"

immediately, two soldiers came in carrying a big box and put it in the hall with a bang. Later, another soldier put the sandalwood box presented by Huang Xiao on Liu Biao's desk.

Wenpin said: "Lord, what's in the sandalwood box is jewelry and jade. It's the most valuable. Among the large boxes were gold, silver, copper coins, and a small amount of land deeds. "

Liu Biao opened the sandalwood box, in a flash, stunned.

He saw many jewels and jades for the first time. The quality depends on the quality, and the absolute degree is priceless.

Liu Biao saw this, but also a bang heart.

Looking at Ma Yuan's eyes, it was even more murderous.

Ma Yuan, trembling in his heart, knelt down on the ground, kowtowed to the ground with his head, and explained: "my Lord, humble duty is unjust, humble duty is planted and framed. Please be aware of it."

At this time, Ma Yuan was in a mess.

If we don't explain clearly now, he must have been severely punished or even killed by a knife. In addition, during his years as Xiangyang County Magistrate, Ma Yuan's hands and feet were not clean. He embezzled a lot of money and offended a lot of people.

Liu Biao saw the jewels and jades and said with gnashing teeth: "the facts are all there. As a magistrate of Xiangyang County, where do you get so much money and land titles. As the leader of Jingzhou, I have never been like this. Are you a fool when you are my official

The words were full of anger.

Liu Xiu mouth slightly up, Liu Biao heart with greed, Ma Yuan will die.

Ma Yuan explained again: "Lord, the jewels and jades in the sandalwood box are not humble. They were given to me by Huang Xiao of Yicheng County. Huang Xiao has a dispute with Pang Tong. When he learns that Pang Tong is in prison, he wants to throw stones down the well, so he gives away a box of jewels and jades to let me do something about them. "

"Oh, it seems that I admit it!" Liu Biao's eyes were cold and said, "the gift giver is from Yicheng. If I remember it well, Ma Yin is from the Ma family in Yicheng, and you are also from the Ma family in Yicheng. Yicheng is very good, and so is your Ma family. "

Ma Yuan was sweating and nervous.

He knew that it was no use arguing any more. The facts were all there, and money could not explain it.

"My Lord, I'm wrong. I plead guilty. Please give me a chance to make contributions."

Ma Yuan banged his head on the ground and begged for mercy.

Liu Biao brushed his sleeve and said angrily, "as the magistrate of Xiangyang County, he is in charge of a county and shoulders the life and death of the people in the county, but he is corrupt and perverts the law. If you keep people like you, you can only let the people suffer. Drag it down and kill it. "

"No, my Lord. Please be gracious."

Ma Yuan exclaimed, his face full of panic.

At this moment, in Ma Yuan's heart, he had already regretted that he should not have been involved in the affair between Ma Yin and Pang Tong.

Ma Yuan kept struggling, but he couldn't hold the soldiers.

A moment later, the soldier dragged the horse down, and soon there was no sound.

Wenpin took the soldiers and took the collected property down.

Pang Lin knelt down on the ground, looking grateful, "the governor of the state is wise, and the grass people are very grateful. The grassroots only hope that the governor of the state can send a fair and honest official to examine his brother. Even if he dies, he will die plainly. "

There is a smile on Liu Biao's face.

If we solve the problem of panglin, his reputation will not be affected, and the Pang family can't say anything.

Moreover, he did not personally participate in the fight between Pang family and Ma family, so he was able to stay out. Ma Yuan is a member of the Ma family. Liu Biao executed Ma Yuan, but Ma Yuan was corrupt and perverted the law. It is normal for him to be executed.

Liu Biao thought carefully and said, "get up, nephew. Don't kneel down. There is no candidate to fill the vacancy of Xiangyang County Magistrate. However, the trial of Pang Tong could not be delayed. "

At this point, Liu Biao was silent.

Liu Xiu waited carefully. At this time, he could not give any advice to Liu Biao, let alone ask who should bring Pang Tong to trial.

Otherwise, Liu Biao would be suspicious.

What Liu Xiu wants to do is to consider how to exonerate Pang Tong according to the candidates determined by Liu Biao.

After a long time, Liu Biao asked, "when is the time for the trial?"

Liu Xiu replied, "the day after tomorrow morning, Pang Tong will be put on trial."

Liu Biao nodded slightly and said, "early the day after tomorrow, I'll arrange for Yi Ji to bring Pang Tong up for trial." After a pause, Liu Biao asked, "Pang Lin, are you satisfied with the result?"

Pang Lin nodded and said, "thank you, Mr. Zhou mu. The grass people only hope that my brother can get a fair and just interrogation. How to sentence him, the Pang family will not interfere."

Liu's face showed a smile.

"Well, go down."

Liu Biao waved his hand. His heart had already flown to the collected jewels and jades.

This batch of jewels and jades are extremely exquisite and of excellent quality. Although Liu Biao doesn't like jewelry and jade, Cai likes it. Liu Biao can give it to CAI.After Liu Xiu and Pang Lin left the prefecture, they returned directly to their residence.

Back in the mansion, Pang Degong and Pang Shanmin met him and asked, "what's the situation?"

Liu Xiu replied, "it's all right!"

Pang Lin looked haggard, but his spirit was quite excited. "Uncle, Ma Yuan was executed. Now, the person who tried the elder brother has changed to an Iraqi. Mr. Xiu's strategy is so ingenious. The sandalwood box is on the table of Liu Jingzhou's case. Ma Yuan's explanation is useless. "

Pang Degong glared at Pang Lin and said in a deep voice, "remember, it's Ma Yuan who was corrupt and perverted the law. Do you understand?"

Pang Lin laughed and said, "I understand!"

If it had not been for Liu Xiu's design and Pang's quick action, Ma would not have been so unlucky. But Ma Yuan was sandwiched between the Pang family and the Ma family, and even went to battle in person, which was doomed to be crushed.

Pound's words changed and said, "if it's an Iraqi nationality, it's fair to deal with it at least if it's not partial to Shiyuan."

Liu Xiu asked, "teacher, how is the information collected?"

"Pound replied," I'll get the news this evening at the latest. There is a certain distance between Xiangyang and Yicheng. It takes a certain amount of time to come and go. "

Liu Xiu nodded and said, "everything is ready. We are waiting for the trial the day after tomorrow."

Pound said justly: "Xiuer, do you really intend to exonerate Shiyuan yourself?"

Liu Xiu replied, "it's the most appropriate thing for a disciple to come forward."

"First, the disciple is the son of Zhou mu. Even if the disciple is a commoner and is not valued, he should not be insulted or attacked."

"Second, I made the plan to save Shi Yuan. I am most familiar with the situation."

"Third, if Shi Yuan killed someone and argued for him, he would certainly offend the Ma family. Brother Kong Ming has outstanding talent and unparalleled eloquence. He is a very suitable candidate, but brother Kong Ming is not a native of Jingzhou. Once he is targeted by the Ma family, he is easy to fall into crisis. "

"So, I am the most suitable person," Liu said

Pang Lin said, "Mr. Xiu, thank you very much."

Pound fair color way: "since it is you to fight in person, you must be fully prepared, but also to protect themselves."

Liu Xiu said with a smile, "don't worry, teacher. I understand."
