Chapter 28 Going to the Court

Early in the morning, the place where the old man lived in the main house had been arranged into a mourning hall. The horn began to blow in the middle of the night, and in the early hours of the morning, there were already many old neighbors and neighbors in Liangzhou who came to worship the spirit. Liu Xiucheng's family of three wore linen and filial piety, knelt in front of the spiritual seat to greet guests, and the two doctors and family members of Huang Sun also helped hand over incense and burning paper. Doctor Dong has been practicing medicine in Liangzhou for many years, and countless people have been saved.

The three members of the Liu family cried into tears, Liu Xiucheng couldn't take care of himself, Yang Zixi avoided in the house, listening to the noise outside, and was very disdainful in his heart.

She doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, and she doesn't understand the customs and etiquette of this world, in her eyes, the Liu family and his wife were mean and indifferent before the old man died, but after his death, they began to pretend to be filial piety, and this funeral changed its taste, it was really formalism, and it was not interesting at all.

Yang Zixi didn't want to argue with Liu Xiucheng in front of the old man's spirit, so he didn't leave the house until the middle of the night, when people were quiet, he took a stick of incense, stood in the courtyard, and worshiped in the direction of the old man's house.

But said that nothing special happened in the first three days, Liu Xiucheng invited fifty monks and Taoists to recite scriptures to Dr. Dong, which was extremely decent in Liangzhou. Three days later, mourning signs and spirit-summoning flags were hung at the door, and sacrificial tents were erected one after another. The largest and most conspicuous color shed of Wang Yuanwai's house is at the intersection, which is particularly eye-catching.

On the day of the funeral, Liu Xucheng, as a filial grandson, threw a basin in front of the spirit, and the servant began to ring the castantal, pointing to the coffin person on his shoulder. Liu Xiu became a face, and I don't know where to get a coffin of Nanmu, although the quality is not good, but the bottom plate is five inches thick, how can the funeral people be surprised, and Liu Xiucheng is filial.

The suona horn blew mournful music, paper money flew all over the sky like snow, and the group went out of the hospital hall and walked to the west of the city along the road built by the sacrificial shed. All the funeral guests were strange, as soon as this west gate came out, it was a cemetery, and Dr. Dong was not buried in the west of the city, could it be buried elsewhere?

saw Liu Xiucheng leading the funeral procession and went straight to the Liangzhou Yamen.

According to the usual practice, those who take the body of the deceased to the yamen to beat the drum, but if there is a great grievance, most of the deceased die unexpectedly, and the bitter master is eager to chase the murderer, so he has to do it as a last resort. Now, like Liu Xiucheng, the master died of illness but wanted to go to the yamen, but it was the first time.

The two doctors didn't understand what was going on, and the rest of the guests were even more confused, everyone followed him to the yamen, Liu Xiucheng rushed forward and picked up the drum and knocked it twice, then knelt down in front of the door, opened his throat and cried: "The master of the Governor Mansion is in charge!" When my master was confused, the gangster deceived me of the title deed of the hospital, and killed my master to death, although it was not murder, but it was better than murder. ”

This voice roared out, everyone was shocked, good, murder and contention, this is big news.

The two doors of the yamen creaked open, and an old man dressed as a master walked out, he glanced at Liu Xiucheng who was kneeling on the ground, and said righteously: "If you have a grievance, you should ask the lawyer to hand over the appeal, and it is not appropriate to beat the drum with the coffin to sound the grievance, or disperse quickly." ”

Liu Xiucheng walked forward on his knees, hugged the master's thigh, and cried: "Master Liu, the grass people are also forced to be helpless. Please also ask the troublesome master to send a message to the prefect, saying that the doctor Dong Shen, who had seen him sick, died unjustly, and asked the master to see the face of the past and preside over justice. ”

When the accompanying people heard Liu Xiucheng's misery, some people couldn't help but help: "Yes, yes, please ask the prefect to uphold justice." ”

Master Liu pretended to be in the hope of the public, and he couldn't get rid of it, and said: "Okay, the old decay depends on your wishes, Liu Xiucheng, according to the usual case, your master's body has to be sent to the house." ”

Liu Xiucheng was busy, kowtowed three more times to the plaque of the yamen, and cried: "Lord Qingtian has avenged the people!" ”

said that Yang Zixi was taking Zi Du to have breakfast in the restaurant, Zi Du ate a lot, and she fell out with the hospital again, even if it was breakfast, she had to stop at the restaurant. Suddenly, a team of officials came to the restaurant and said to the diners: "The prefect is handling the case, arresting the suspect, and no one else is evaded." ”

The diners were scattered, Yang Zixi and Zidui were blocked inside, glanced at the table full of dim sum dishes, and the leading official sneered: "I didn't believe it when I heard Dr. Liu say, how can a nine-year-old female doll be bold and abducted?" Now I believe it, as soon as the master died, he was in the mood to go to the restaurant to eat and drink, and his conscience was really eaten by dogs, which shows that he is a traitor or a thief. ”

Yang Zixi knew that it was not good, this was Liu Xiucheng who said that the government would come to get her! She stood up and said calmly, "What? What is the sin of eating too much? ”

"Take them all!" The leading official ignored her, waved his hand and said to his subordinates, "Don't let go of the little ones." ”

The two wolf-like officials rushed forward with a wicked smile, Zidu's face sank, and he was about to make a move, Yang Zixi hurriedly detained him, but he couldn't show his strange power in front of the officials, and the crime of resisting arrest was the same everywhere.

She suppressed Zidui, looked up and said to the officer: "We have our own legs to walk, so we don't need you to do it, or are you afraid of running away from our two dolls?" ”

When the officials heard this, they thought it made sense, it was not decent to press the two milk dolls to go out, anyway, the two of them couldn't run away, and it was best to be willing to go by themselves.

Yang Zixi went to the yamen with the yamen and went to the court, and saw Liu Xiucheng and Cui's wearing linen and filial piety, kneeling on the left side of the court, and a young man shaking a fan was standing beside him. She smiled coldly, and secretly said in her heart, this couple is really urgent! Before Master's body was buried, he began to fight for property?

When the Song prefect in the hall saw her and Zidui, he was stunned, turned his head and asked Master Liu, "The suspects turned out to be two dolls?" How big is that? Then Dr. Liu can be their grandfather, right? ”

Master Liu wiped his mustache and said in a low voice: "Master, you are handling the case impartially, can't you just consider human feelings?" You are soft-hearted, and you can't see the little doll being offended, at most you can hit the board a few times, but you don't break the law, but you can't be accommodating at will. ”

Governor Song is known for his soft ears, and he has always listened to Master Liu in nine times out of ten to decide cases, which is why Master Liu's status in the yamen is particularly outstanding. Hearing what the master said, it made sense for the Song Governor's Mansion to think about it, a small thief who was tried before stole the money bag of a rich man, but he was just an eight-year-old doll, and he couldn't bend the law for personal gain because he was small! ”

He raised his hand and knocked on the startled tree, and the sound of 'mighty' sounded in the room. Governor Song said in a beaming voice: "Yang Zixi, can you plead guilty?" ”
