Xianyang City, at the door of the government office, at this time, an old woman was kneeling at the door of the government office with a woman in her thirties.

A servant holding a knife on his waist came over and said to the two people kneeling in front of the government office: "We can't take your case in Xianyang, and this lawsuit has to be fought in your local county office." ”

"Official, you are discussing with the eldest master. Where is the rich man Zhang powerful, where is we powerful, where we are this lawsuit is really impossible to fight. We really had no choice, so we went all the way to Xianyang to report to the official. The old woman cried out. Looking at her shoes, they were covered in mud and tattered, and it was obvious that they should have come all the way.

"Auntie, it's not that we don't care, this country has national laws and family rules. This matter of Xianyang City, our government can manage it, but we really can't control it when we get out of Xianyang. Although this servant is fierce and vicious, he is good-natured and patiently explains to the old woman.

"This ......"

"How should this be good, my family died on the battlefield, and the land that I bought in exchange for my life was bought and sold by force."

"Our lives are miserable, how will we live in the future?" The old woman should not cry every day, and she shouts that the earth is not spiritual.

The servant also saw that the old lady was really pitiful, so he helped them come up with an idea and said, "Auntie, I'll give you an idea." You go to Lijiazhuang on the outskirts of the city, if you can find Rong Luhou, I will be able to give you an explanation for this matter. ”

"Lord Hou......"

"Master Hou, can you take care of our affairs?" The old woman said hesitantly, obviously out of confidence.

"Hou Ye has always loved the people like a son, and your son died on the battlefield, if Hou Ye knows, he must not ignore it." The official pondered for a while and said.

"Okay, then I'll go find Master Hou." The old woman gritted her teeth and said.

Fortunately, Lijiazhuang is a well-known place in Xianyang, and the old woman took her daughter-in-law to ask all the way and found Lijiazhuang. The living area of Lijiazhuang does not restrict outsiders from entering, and the old woman asked all the way to the courtyard where Li Chen lived.

It's just that now Li Chen is sick, and there are guards outside the courtyard day and night, so the old woman is naturally stopped outside.

"Liuzi, you go and see what's going on outside."

Li Chen, who was taking a nap, was woken up by a noise. Li Chen's body was much better, and he returned to the palace a few days before Yingyue, and the sixth son stayed by Li Chen's side day and night.

After Li Chen said that, the six sons trotted out for a while, and after about a quarter of an hour, they walked in with a gloomy face.

"Brother, it's the martyr's family who came here." Liuzi said with a gloomy face.

"Help me through." Li Chen said to the sixth son.

In the courtyard, Li Chen had already invited the two of them in.

"Old woman, I am Li Chen, if you tell me anything, I will definitely give you justice." Li Chen looked at the two of them and said solemnly.

After receiving Li Chen's assurance, the old woman began to talk about the beginning and end of this matter with tears in her eyes.

The old woman is from Lao Qin, and the person next to her is his daughter-in-law, who lives in Didao County in the Kanto region. Originally, there was a son and a grandson in the family, and life was happy. But how can the blood of the old Qin people be cold, when his grandson was just seven years old, his son ran to become a soldier. As the saying goes, the clay pot is difficult to break from the wellhead, and the general will inevitably die before the battle. No, a few days ago, his son broke into the bandits.

Although his son is gone, he did not make any meritorious contributions before he died. As soon as this battle exploit was converted, it was actually divided into 300 acres of fertile land.

It's just that he already has some fields in his own house, and the orphans and widows can't afford to add these new fields, so they want to sell the land for some money. So he discussed with the nearby rich man Zhang and sold the land for three hundred taels of silver. The rich man paid a fixed sum of thirty taels of silver, and the land also fell under the rich man's house in the presence of the people of the household.

But who knows, as soon as the people from this household left, the rich man Zhang did not admit it. Zhang Caizhu is a well-known figure in Didao County, and the county order of Didao County does not dare to offend. Every time they went to sue the official, the county government coped with it.

At this moment, the land that the son exchanged for his life was gone, and the money for the sale of the land was only thirty taels of silver. The orphan and widow had no choice in an instant, so she settled her grandson and took her daughter-in-law all the way to Xianyang.

"Zhao Que, Zhao Que."

After hearing this, Li Chen shouted angrily outside the courtyard, but he didn't expect that someone would dare to touch the soldier's life-selling money.

"Master Hou."

Zhao Que should have been outside the courtyard for a long time, and Li Chen walked in as soon as he called him.

"Go to the household department to check who is responsible for distributing the military merits of the soldiers in Didao County." Li Chen commanded.

About two hours later, it was already close to evening, and Zhao Que was able to come here.

"Master Hou, I have found out, the military merits of Didao County are the responsibility of Feng Langzhong of the Household Department. It's just that some of this Feng Lang is Feng Quji's nephew. Zhao Que whispered in Li Chen's ear.

"Let's go, go to the household department."

"Don't say it's Feng Quji's nephew, it's his old son who committed something, and I have to dig it out of the soil for him." Li Chen said viciously.

At the gate of the household department, Li Chen's carriage stopped, and Zhao Que followed the carriage closely with a group of people from the Hanging Mirror Division.

"Where are the people in there?" Li Chen asked.

"Yes, my people keep watching." Zhao Que said affirmatively.

At this time, it was already evening, and the people in the household department had already left clean, and this Feng Langzhong didn't know what he was doing here.

At this time, Feng Xiu was changing a military merit book, and he had just finished correcting the last stroke. This one fell, and he finally put his mind at ease.

"Bang."

At that moment, the door was suddenly kicked open, and several people from the Hanging Mirror Division pressed him to the table without saying a word.

"Master Hou, look."

Zhao Que picked up the military merit book on the table where the ink had not yet dried, this is really catching thieves and getting dirty, this kid's greed for military merit is obviously true.

"Li Chen, what are you arresting me for?"

Feng Xiu was pressed on the table and shouted angrily.

"What you did, you know in your own heart." Li Chen raised the military merit book in his hand and said.

"I didn't do anything, you don't want to wronged me, my uncle is Feng Cifu." Feng Xiu said stiffly.

In handling cases in this court, the emphasis is on the presence of human and material evidence. Now that the physical evidence has been modified by Feng, waiting for the ink to dry, no one can see the flaw. As long as he doesn't admit it to his death, without physical evidence, Feng Quji can naturally work for him.

"Zhao Que, dagger."

"Cao Nima's, play hooligan for Lao Tzu."

"Ah, it hurts, it hurts."

"I said, I said, spare me."

Li Chen snatched the dagger from Zhao Que's hand and slashed at Feng Xiu's fingers. His body was very weak, and the dagger got stuck in the bone when he slashed his finger bone. So he used the dagger as a saw, and in Feng Xiu's wail, he cut off three of his fingers.

"Say, what's going on in Didao County, but if you lie to me with a word, I'll cut off one of your fingers. When your fingers are done, you cut off your toes, and if your toes are not enough, you will cut off your flesh. ”

Li Chen splashed blood on his face and said hideously.

"I say, I say."

Where had Feng Xiu seen such a scene, he had already been frightened by Li Chen, and he spit out like beans in the bamboo tube.

"I received 10,000 taels of silver from the rich man Zhang of Didao County, and some of the soldiers who died in the war in Didao County had no father, no mother, and no wives and children. In addition, some orphans and widows who want to sell their land, I have also helped some within the scope of my authority. ”

Li Chen knew that this was definitely not a matter of being a little busy, the Guanzhong area of Didao County, the hometown of the old Qin people. The Guanzhong area can be said to be Lao Qin's barracks, so the land that is operated in Didao County is definitely not less.

"Take it away, check it, don't leave any of the people involved in this matter, and find out all of them for me." Li Chen threw the dagger to Zhao Que and said.

"These people who drink the blood of soldiers must die, and not one of them will be left." It seems that after experiencing a war, Li Chen is particularly tyrannical.
