Chapter 306: Making a Mess in Court
After a short walk, everyone went to the yamen of the state capital, and Lu Jing asked Yao Yi to shout a complaint.
Wan Ziqing heard the cry of injustice and took Yao Yi's mother and son to the court, Lu Jing and Chen Ji claimed to be witnesses and followed behind them, while Guo Yong, Qi Xu, and An Suchan took Xiao Yuqi to look at Yao Ren outside the yamen.
Yao Yi's mother and son came to the court, and then presented the paper with both hands.
Wan Ziqing saw that there were four people, glanced at it, and stopped at Lu Jing, but when he saw that he was dressed in ragged Confucian clothes, he knew that he was a poor scholar, so he stopped paying attention, and then unfolded the paper to watch, and saw that it was written:
Gao, a widow of sixty-four, lived in Yaojiazhuang, Pizhou, and sued her eldest son Yao Ren for killing his mother and killing his younger brother. Earnestly punish and set an example of evil things: the folk woman gave birth to two children, the eldest son Yao Ren and the second son Yao Yi, who lived in different places and cooked separately.
Yao Yi went out to trade, Yao Ren was robbed and killed on the way, Yao Ren and Liu conspired to lure and sell his younger sister-in-law Yang, and framed him and went to prison. When the women heard the letter, they came to the state to sue Yao Renzhi for rebellion. Yao Ren rushed to the middle of the way, killed his mother with a knife, and was fortunately rescued by passers-by. Now with the second son Yao Yi came to the ya, knocking on the grandfather's grace to pass on the investigation, in order to save the life of the mother and son, it is really virtuous, and knock.
Wan Ziqing saw that he was involved in the case that was tried yesterday, and he was angry that Yao Ren was making trouble for himself, but he couldn't overturn the previous case at this time, so he had to say angrily: "Bold, the previous case has already been tried, it was the Yang family who committed adultery with Liu Qing, falsely accused Yao Ren, and blackmailed money, and you came to make false accusations this time, I think you are clearly conspiring to seize Yao Ren's family property." ”
Lu Jing stepped forward and asked, "The judgment of the previous case is a little unclear, and the student is trying to ask for advice." ”
Wan Ziqing said angrily: "Who are you and where is your home?" What is the last name? can have a meritorious reputation, how can this official not allow you to put your beak in judging the case. ”
Lu Jing said in a deep voice: "The student's ancestral residence is Gusu, his surname is Gao's name and judge, he is a member of Gusu, and now he is traveling to study, because of the lack of entanglement, it is difficult to return to his hometown. ”
Wan Ziqing heard Lu Jing say that he was just a showman, so he was a little unhappy in his heart, and reluctantly asked, "What do you have to ask?" ”
Lu Jing asked: "My lord only listened to Yao Ren's false words, how do you know that the Yang, Wang Po, and Liu Qing conspired to blackmail?" If Yao Ren was not strictly punished, he tortured the three Yang people, tortured them into tricks, and was convicted of being sent to prison. Since the adults eat the court, they should judge the merits of the court impartially, so as to be worthy of the parents and officials of the people. ”
After hearing this, Wan Ziqing suddenly became full of anger and shouted: "You crazy student, you have been reading poetry and books for a few years, and you don't know the laws of the country, so you dare to defy the court and question your own officials. Since this official took office, he will pay attention to the people's feelings, and dare not wronged the people. ”
Lu Jing sneered: "Since the Lord Suri judges cases like a god, loves the people like a child, receives the favor of the emperor, and is not greedy for the people's money, why do you favor Yao Ren because of the five hundred silver, and beat the Yang family into a trick?" ”
After hearing this, Wan Ziqing couldn't help but be ashamed and angry, and the nameless fire started, slapped the shocking wood, and shouted: "What a crazy student, he dared to speak wildly, slandering his own official, obviously the Yang family escaped, committed adultery with Liu Qing, and the accusation was made with false words, and the matter has been confessed, and now her confession is on the record, how can you say that she was wronged?" ”
"You disturbed the court today, it is unreasonable, how can this state forgive me, come here, pull me down, and beat forty hands Jane!"
All the officials hurriedly replied in unison that they were about to make a move, and Lu Jing shouted: "This official is ordered to inspect the imperial history, and he is ordered to picket hundreds of officials in the south of the Yangtze River, I see who dares to do it." ”
Chen Ji hurriedly protected Lu Jing behind him, took out a bamboo tube and shot it out of the hall, and suddenly an arrow rose into the air.
When the officials heard this, they were stunned for a while and didn't dare to do anything.
Wan Ziqing looked at Lu Jing, his face was cloudy, his expression changed several times, he grabbed the hand of the torture stick, hanging in the air, wanting to give an order but not daring to give an order.
Pizhou Tongju and others kept praying in their hearts that Wan Ziqing would do it quickly, and everyone had already heard about the matter in Ganyu County, and Jiang Runnong's stupid man was cleaned up by him for provoking Qincha.
Lu Jing couldn't help sneering when he looked at Wan Ziqing, and was about to speak, when he saw Guo Yong break in, and said, "Lord Qiqi, Lord Commander has arrived, and he is waiting outside the ya." ”
Seeing this, Wan Ziqing hurriedly got up and came to the hall, bowed, knelt down and kowtowed: "Please be gracious and forgive me." ”
Lu Jing was about to speak, when he saw that Zhang Dizhou had entered the state office with everyone.
Lu Jing then walked out of the court, walked to the class room to change the official mansion, returned to the public court, sat on the main seat, saw Wan Ziqing still kneeling there, and said coldly: "You, a corrupt official, have received the favor of the country and do not be the master of the people, and you have turned into a trick, and you want to kill the lives of the Yang family, Wang Po, and Liu Qing, and this official will punish you for this matter today." ”
After speaking, he ordered people to take off their official hats and uniforms, pull out the four torture sticks and throw them in front of the court.
Before the soap servant approached, he beat Wan Ziqing with forty canes, and beat him to death, and blood flowed all over the ground.
Lu Jing shouted: "Put him in prison, and after the official thoroughly investigates it, he will be sent out." ”
The soap servant hurriedly dragged Wan Ziqing down and put him in prison.
Lu Jing then sent Yang, Wang Po, Liu Qing, and Yao Ren to the court, and ordered someone to detain Liu.
When Yang arrived at the hall and saw Yao Yi and Gao, he stepped forward to hug his head and cry.
Wang Po and Liu Qing saw that the person who persuaded them that day was actually a messenger, and they were secretly lucky in their hearts, and they were afraid, although they were now sentenced and imprisoned, they would no longer have to worry about their lives.
After Lu Jing waited for them to recount the relationship between his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, he stopped a few people and began to judge the case, and passed on Liu Qingdao: "It is a felony for you to buy a good prostitute, and this official will not pursue you if you repent halfway and have been punished, and when this case is settled, I will return your capital, I hope you will keep this matter in mind, and you will never do such a thing that violates customs and leaves people's flesh and blood in the future, if you commit it again, this official will be punished more severely." ”
Liu Qing hurriedly kowtowed and said: "Master Xie Qingtian is gracious, the villain will definitely change his evil and return to the right and do a serious business." ”
Lu Jing nodded and said, "Stand down!" Liu Qing hurriedly kowtowed and retreated.
Lu Jing ordered someone to pass it on to Wang Po and said to him: "What do you think, the official knows it, and he was willing to do the testimony at the beginning, but he was afraid that they would implicate you if they told the truth." ”
Seeing that her mind was all peeping through, Wang Po hurriedly kowtowed and said, "Ask for mercy from the adults, the old woman will never dare anymore." ”
Lu Jing continued: "You conspired with Yao Ren to sell the Yang family privately, and the blame cannot be escaped, and the official estimates that you are old and have been punished for this matter, so he will be punished lightly, come to someone, and put him in prison for half a month, and then release him." ”
Wang Po hurriedly bowed and said, "Thank you for your kindness, thank you for your kindness." ”
Lu Jing shouted again: "In the future, if you dare to do such a thing of money obsessed and abducted and trafficked, you will definitely not be spared." ”
Wang Po hurriedly said that she didn't dare anymore, Lu Jing nodded, and ordered the officials to take her into prison.
Lu Jing then sent Zhang Jia and Li Yi to fight for the second battle, and they were heavily punished for forty, and they were imprisoned and imprisoned.
Lu Jing shouted: "Yao Ren, what your husband and wife have done, killing your brother, and selling your brother and daughter-in-law, this official has already found out, hurry up and take real measures, and avoid heavy punishment!" ”
Yao Ren's heart was already dead, and seeing that his mother, Yao Yi and his wife were already here, it was difficult to argue, so he had to confess everything he had done in the past.
After hearing this, Lu Jing ordered him to draw a confession, and after his wife was detained, he announced the sentence together, and then left the court.
Two hours later, Yao Ren's wife Liu was detained, and Lu Jing opened a trial, and after Liu confessed, he put forward a conviction in writing: "Yao Ren rebelled against Lun to kill his mother, Liu conspired to help abuse, and asked Ling Chi to be executed; Yao Yi and Yang were innocently killed, the Yao family's two houses were combined into one house, and Jin Zhong, the son of the long house, was adopted by the second room. ”
Yao Yi, Yang, Gao and others listened to the judgment and were busy kowtowing and thanking them.
