Chapter 470: The Case of the Hypocrite (3)
Fang Lei led a group of people, sneaked out of the back door, hired two carriages, and went straight to the western suburbs, and after a while, they arrived at the mansion.
Zhong Xun was about to knock on the door, but Fang Lei hurriedly stopped: "Lord Zhong! Let's be gentle, don't disturb their spring dreams! ”
As he spoke, he put his arm around Zhong Xun's waist, carried light work, crossed the high wall, entered the courtyard, opened the gate from the inside, and the group walked in.
Fang Lei faced the door, his palm was like the wind, and he smashed the wooden board with one palm, so frightened that Hong Zhixian suddenly bounced up from the bed, wearing pajamas and pajamas, standing in front of the bed, not daring to move.
Zhong Xun said sarcastically: "Hongzhi County's golden house is so chic!" ”
"How did you find here?" Hong Tao asked in astonishment.
Fang Lei said: "Hmph! If you want people not to know, unless you don't do anything, when you left the yamen today, I followed you, in the backyard of the house, you arranged your wife to live in Yahuan, the servant's low wing, she knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and was pulled up by your wolf-hearted husband. Once you play the Holy Spirit, how many lives do you, a hypocrite who deceives the world and steal your name? ”
"Who are you? Why are you tracking me? Hong Zhixian asked puzzled.
Zhong Xun said: "He is the entourage of this patrol, I am responsible for the investigation, he is responsible for the secret visit, the fake county magistrate case in Cangsong County was found out by him, if he hadn't gotten out of the carriage before entering the city this time, and secretly investigated the truth, this patrol press was almost blinded by your illusion!" ”
"Didn't you tell the girl in the green house on the bed that we don't know each other in life? Tell you about it! When I was purging the secret organization under the control of the King of Lingnan, I lived in this county for a while, and it was easy to find out if you were in cahoots with the King of Lingnan! Fang Lei said.
It was not until this time that Hongzhi County knew that there was indeed a master hidden in the hands of the patrol envoy!
Zhong Xun pressed and said: "Two girls! Drag out the Qinglou woman on the bed, escort back to the yamen with this hypocrite, and wait for the fate! ”
The two lifted the curtains, and Xiao Peach was wearing pajamas, hiding under the brocade quilt and shivering, she had seen this kind of formation there!
Fang Lei said: "Lord Zhong! When I left Cangsong County, I once told you that when I inspected Hanshan County, I would crack another shocking case, this case is big enough, right? However, the cracking of this case will embarrass the emperor! I never thought that I would believe that a hypocrite who deceived the world and stole his name would be filial piety? ”
"This matter was highly recommended by the Duanzhou prefect in the performance, and he can't get out of it!" Zhong Xun said.
Early the next morning, Zhang Yang and Feng Zhutou escorted Master Huang into the Hong Mansion, found Zeng in the backyard, and said to her: "Hong Tao and the Qinglou woman bought a mansion in the countryside in the western suburbs, the golden house is hidden, and the mask of his filial piety has also been torn. ”
"Good! This hypocrite also has today, came to Hanshan County, after becoming the magistrate, he thought that he was already famous, and he didn't need my mother-in-law to cover up, so he showed his true colors, and was tortured by him for three years, and drove the concubine to live in this low house with the miscellaneous servants, servants, and Yahuan, and was roasted and sweated profusely on a hot day, and couldn't sleep at night, and I was not allowed to meet my son, and I was not allowed to step out of the house half a step, saying that I had lost him, and scolded me for being a cheap woman! ”
As Zeng spoke, he cried "duh", and Zhang Yang hurriedly instructed Yahuan to help her out of the mansion, get into the carriage, and drive straight to the county office.
In the court, Zhong Xun sat on the chair of the master who tried the case in Hongzhi County that day, Fang Lei took the position of the master, and Zhang Yang also played the role of a clerk. ”
Zeng saw Hong Tao and Xiao Taohong kneeling on the ground, already angry, under the support of Yahuan, he took a few steps forward, stretched out his slap, opened the bow left and right on Hong Tao's face, and slapped me more than ten times in a row. Today, God opened his eyes, and you, a villain who has annihilated humanity and are inferior to beasts, have also got the end they deserve! ”
Fang Lei shook the golden lacquer plaque of "filial piety touching the sky" at Hong Tao a few times, and said sarcastically: "Three years ago, you were promoted from a small mayor to the magistrate of the county with this plaque, and today, you are also in front of this plaque, from the magistrate to a death row prisoner, what a big laugh!" ”
Zeng suddenly knelt on the ground and knocked: "The first is that the woman sues Hong Tao for the crime of abusing his wife, and the second is that the woman of the Qinglou is guilty of hooking up with a husband with a wife, please ask Lord Qingtian to be the master of the people's wife!" ”
Her personal maid ring also knelt on the ground and knocked: "Yahuan Xiaolian, I am willing to testify for my wife!" ”
Fang Lei motioned to Xia He and Xiaoxi to help the two of them up, Zhong Xun patted the shocked wood, and said majestically: "This patrol has decided to accept this complaint, and will retry it after collecting evidence!" ”
According to the decision, Zhong Xun first tried the corruption case of Hong Tao deceiving the emperor, selling his reputation and reputation, and partnering with Master Huang, and then sat in the court in public, accepting the case of the common people suing corrupt officials and corrupt officials and retrying the unjust, false and wrongful cases, but he could only make a good start, and when the court officials arrived, they could be tried one by one.
Fang Lei proposed: "Lord Zhong! Let's let the yacha sound the gong in front tomorrow to open the way, go to the street to meet with the people publicly, and inspect the people's situation. ”
"Alright! Just do what you say, Fang Gongzi should not appear in public, this matter should be handled by Zhang Yang, right? Zhong Xun pressed in approval.
Early the next morning, Zhang Yang found the county clerk, their boss, Master Huang, had been detained, waiting to be sentenced to a heavy sentence, the new county magistrate and the master had not yet arrived, of course, they had to obey the orders of the magistrate, so they organized the yamen and the yacha to assist the lord Zhong Xun to march on the street, and re-establish the prestige of the county magistrate in the eyes of the people.
At noon, the team of people to inspect the people's situation set off, and there was a gong in front of the yacha to open the way, and Zhong Xunzhi followed behind, frequently waving to the lively street people on both sides of the street, saying that from now on, the people can live and work in peace and contentment.
