When the county magistrate heard this, he didn't even bother to hide the joy on his face, and immediately said to Ruoshui.

"The white shopkeeper is right, it's not up to people to decide how much other people's land is collected, and if you don't want to have 10,000 taels of gold, it's already a mercy, so you don't have to complain. Quickly hand over the money to the county, no, no, to the white shopkeeper, and the county can spare you from punishment. ”

Ruoshui smiled bitterly, but she used these words to sarcastically mock the white shopkeeper for being unreasonable just now, but such unreasonable words came out of the county master's mouth, but it became hers.

Now, it seems that this killer weapon cannot be hidden, Ruoshui took a deep breath, and just opened his mouth, he heard a young man's voice coming from the periphery of the crowd of spectators.

"Student Li Xian, I've seen the county order!"

What a familiar voice~ Ruoshui turned around and looked around, only to see a sea of people surging for a moment, and a small path gradually branched out from somewhere, and a young man in a coarse cloth walked in with two loads of firewood on his back.

His face was elegant and handsome, and when he wore coarse cloth clothes, he also had a bit of bookish atmosphere.

"Li Gongzi!"

This person's face Ruoshui is very familiar, he is the woodcutter who squatted in front of Ruoshui Gate in the middle of the night the day before yesterday, I didn't expect to meet here today, and looking at his speech and demeanor, it seems that it is not just a woodcutter.

Hearing Ruoshui's low shout, Li Xian smiled at her, his face quickly turned red, and he walked quickly to the county master's side with a quick glance, clenched his fists with both hands, and made a simple gesture, without even bending his waist.

When I saw the county master, I didn't kneel! What is the origin of this Li Xian? Ruoshui thought to herself.

"Student Li Xian, I have seen the county order."

"Bold! How dare you not kneel when you see an adult! ”

The white shopkeeper doesn't know anything Li Xian and Li Yin, he is depressed at this moment~

Originally, he saw that this little lady was weak and deceitful, and wanted to take advantage of it, but he didn't expect that all kinds of methods came out one after another, causing him to stuff a lot of money to coax the greedy county master. When I thought that I had lost a lot of money without making a penny, I was very unlucky in my heart, and when I saw a young man who came out of nowhere, I suddenly shouted without even turning my brain.

"I have a meritorious reputation, but I am a talent who has been worshipping for five years, and officials under the five grades of the law do not need to bow down when they see it."

Li Xian was not annoyed, and explained to the white shopkeeper without hurrying, and the county master frowned on the side, and was also quite annoyed by this uninvited guest, but he didn't stop it much, just asked lightly.

"Li Xian, what are you doing here?"

"Back to adults, the students came to the morning market today to sell firewood, and when they heard that it was very lively here, they wanted to come and have a look."

Listening to Li Xian's words, the contempt in the eyes of the county lord was even more powerful.

A county in southern Hunan is located in a remote area, and there are not many people who have meritorious reputation, so he also has an impression of this Li Xian.

I heard that this Li Xian generation is a scholar, but it is a pity that his ancestors have never been lifted, and his father only knows that he is immersed in hard study and does not produce, and the poor family is tinkling. In Li Xian's generation, although he was a young and intelligent young man, he was selected for the show early, but because his family was really poor, he couldn't even raise money to participate in the provincial examination, so he could only make a living by chopping wood.

In the eyes of the county magistrate, although he has a meritorious reputation, he has no useless reputation at all, and he has no value at all to be befriended.

But although he has no career, he is a person recorded on the official register, and the county master is not much neglectful, so he can only rack his brains to think about how to send this nosy guy away.

"The case has been decided, you can go."

The county magistrate waved his hand patiently, trying to drive Li Xian away as if he was chasing flies. Li Xian was not annoyed, but suddenly said loudly word by word.

"Now that the case has been decided, what is the confession of the parties in this case, and where are the witnesses? The students are not talented and want to borrow it to observe it. ”

"Hurry up with the power, what you said will be sealed by the master after I return to the yamen."

"Nothing? I'm afraid it's not appropriate to make a conclusion like this~ Daling's law is cloudy, when an official judges a case, all confession evidence is sealed on the spot, otherwise the verdict is invalid, I don't know if adults can know about this? ”

Li Xian Luoli was so rambling that the county master had already begun to be impatient, but he couldn't refute it, so he had to glance at the master behind him. The latter immediately showed a look of understanding, and quickly rushed out from behind the adult.

"Hey! I said, you sour and rotten talent, why do you question our adult's verdict. Our Lord Qingtian has been in an official position for many years, and has judged countless cases, but there has never been an unjust or wrongful conviction, so how can you be allowed to mess around here. If the adults don't rush you, it's for the sake of your face as a fellow scholar, don't be ignorant of your mouths and tongues. ”

This speech is extremely ugly, the master is just a staff position, and he has no official position, he insulted and slandered Li Xian like this, according to the law, he should be punished with a hundred rods, but the only one present who has the power to beat him is the county master. But how could anyone in charge beat his own dog, the county master just snorted, and even acquiesced to the master's evil words.

Although Li Xian spoke up, as a scholar, he still had some ability to argue the merits with the county master, and when he met a guy like the master who was unreasonable and had to choke on three points, he could only hold back his face and have nothing to say.

"Brother Li~ You don't want to get involved in this matter anymore, hurry up and take the firewood and go~"

If the water is most unbearable, because others are implicated by themselves, they leaned forward and whispered a few words of comfort, but they didn't expect that the slightly intimate behavior of the two would become a handle in the eyes of those who cared, and the county magistrate drank in a deep voice.

"Li Xian, it seems that you and the defendant have known each other for a long time~ Now questioning the verdict of this official, I think it is simply to shield the criminal. I advise you to leave quickly, otherwise I will definitely write a letter to the Hanlin Pavilion and apply for your fame!" ”

"I, Li Xian, sit upright and act upright, what's wrong, it's just that I pointed out the problem in your case, Lord County Commander, and I want to remove my fame, is there any royal law in this Daling Dynasty?"

The Li family has been aiming at the imperial examination for generations, and the importance of fame is comparable to life for the Li family, and the county prince is about to turn his face if he disagrees, Li Xian is anxious and angry, and his hands and feet tremble with anger.

"In this one-acre and three-point land in Xiangnan County, our master is Wang Fa!"

The master proudly declared, but he didn't know that as soon as this sycophant sentence came out, it became a guillotine that wanted his life.
