Xu Qing: "that busy finished not, you need to rest."
Li Changting: "it's almost over. There's no need to worry about the disaster in kunzhou. Your life Handbook has been praised by many people. They think that the people who can share such important things with them are just saints."
Xu Qing: "it just took me a few days. Kunzhou is finished. What's the matter with Lanzhou?"
Li Changting: "Lanzhou It's complicated over there. "
Xu Qing: "hmm?"
Mentioning Lanzhou, even Li Changting couldn't help sighing, "Lanzhou is a place where villains gather. It's quite different from kunzhou. There are many decent families gathered in kunzhou. At least on the surface, these decent families are decent. But there are evil villains gathered in Lanzhou. Even ordinary hundred surnames are mostly their believers."
Xu Qing expression complex: "these villains occupy a state?"
Li Changting: "the original site of Baidu gate is in Lanzhou. Unless we send heavy soldiers to clean it, we can't do anything about it with a few of us now."
Xu Qing: "what should we do? Does Lanzhou not care? "
Li Changting: "of course, we have to take care of it, but we can't be in a hurry. Hu Ling came here to rectify Lanzhou this time. The speed of the army is not as fast as that of our boat. It's not time to deal with Lanzhou.
Xu Qing: "but those villains have no good ones. Should they all be killed?"
Li Changting: "there are also good ones. They will be dealt with differently at that time. They won't upset a boat with one stroke."
"Bang! Bang! Bang
The sound of beating drums suddenly came from outside. Xu Qing curiously took Li Changting out to have a look.
"Who beat the drum to complain?" The county magistrate put on his black hat and rushed to the court. He looked a little tired. I think he was as busy as Li Changting. He didn't sleep well for many days.
Two men and two women were kneeling in the court.
"What are your grievances?" Asked the county magistrate.
"My Lord, my village..." Four people speak together, the result is each other's voice plan, a time look at each other.
County Master: "one by one, make it clear."
One of the women took the lead in saying, "my Lord, please make the decision for the elder sister of the people's daughter."
County Master: "what happened to your sister?"
The woman cried, "my sister was killed by her husband!" The woman pointed to the man kneeling beside him, "that's him!"
The man had a gloomy face and didn't speak.
When it comes to human life, it's not a trivial case. The county magistrate blinked and tried to cheer up and asked the man, "why did you kill your wife? Don't you know it's against the law to kill people? "
The man clenched his fists and said, "that poisonous woman deserves to die!"
County master a knock startled: "make it clear!"
The man sniffed and said, "I'm a peddler. I left home three years ago to do business and left my mother in the care of my wife. My mother lost her sight in the natural disaster. She was kind and kind. In order to save food for us, she was very hungry Every year, I leave enough silver for my wife to take good care of my old mother, but she She went to dig earthworms and cook them for my old mother. She cheated my old mother that it was noodles! Just to save this money and support her stupid brother! "
"I pity my old mother. She thought her daughter-in-law was filial to her, but I didn't know why she had a stomachache until I asked the doctor to see her and said that she was full of worms and couldn't live for a few days..."
The man couldn't help crying.
County master a clap startles a hall wood: "how unreasonable!"
The woman next to the man was a little guilty, but she still had the courage to say, "then you can't kill my sister!"
The man looked at her viciously: "she abused my mother all the year round and killed her. Doesn't she deserve to die?"
The woman was roared and shrunk, opened her mouth and said, "even if my sister doesn't do it well, you should go to prison to pay for your life if you kill someone!"
The man pointed to her and said, "I know your family is counting on my ancestral property, but I tell you, you can't think about it! I won't even give you a tile! "
The county magistrate knocked on the wood and said in a deep voice, "your wife is guilty, but if you kill someone, you will be sentenced. However, in view of your filial piety, I will consider it at my discretion. Come on, put him in jail first. "
"Wait!" Cried the man.
County Master: "what else do you want to say?"
"The man said:" I want to report a person
County Master: "who do you want to report?"
The man pointed to the woman next to him and said with a happy smile: "I report her father. Her father is a bandit. Five days ago, a carriage that went to Wugu village to distribute imperial goods was robbed by her father!"
The woman was shocked: "you are talking nonsense! My father is not a bandit
County Master surprised to stare big eyes, looked at Li Changting not far away, and then a slap startled, said: "bold!"The woman cried out: "my Lord, my father is not a bandit. He slandered my father! Please tell me
County Master: "is it right? Just summon people to know. Come people, go to her home and bring her father."
The county magistrate said, and then looked at the man: "how do you know that her father is a bandit and robbed the chariot which was distributed by the imperial court?"
The man replied, "I saw it with my own eyes. To tell you the truth, I was going to take revenge on this family. I went to her house that day and saw her father sneaking out of the city with two people. I was curious, so I followed him to have a look. They went to rob the imperial carriage before I arrived first."
County Master: "then why didn't you come to the Yamen to report the case at the first time?"
Man: "I..."
The county magistrate said angrily, "come on, I'm not honest. Do you want to taste the sticks in my court?"
The man swallowed his saliva and said, "I didn't report the case, because I went to my father-in-law that night. I wanted to threaten him to give me something, but he promised me well. Afterwards, he wanted to kill me. I hid for several days. I was caught by this woman and forced to come to the Yamen by her. That's how it happened."
The woman beside him was sitting on the floor, her expression was confused and unbelievable. She must have never thought that she was just trying to get justice for her sister, but she accidentally implicated her father.
The county magistrate hated the man and said, "this is more than murder. If you don't report back, you want to share the stolen goods!"
The man bowed his head: "I plead guilty."
At this time, a rushed back to report: "my Lord, the man surnamed Cao ran away. It seems that he heard something. By the time we arrived, the man had disappeared."
