Chapter 242: The Defendant Becomes the Plaintiff
Hearing that it was Mu Xi beating the drum and shouting grievances, Qin Ming was stunned at that time, wasn't it okay yesterday?
Could it be that Feng Gongzi did something to her?
At this time, the official of Shuntian Mansion opened his mouth and scolded: "Didn't you see the adults summoning the officials? I don't know if I'll report on such a trivial matter later. ”
Generally speaking, in the government office, some lawsuits are handled by officials.
Unless it is a big case, Fu Yin will be asked about it.
But at this moment, Qin Ming was very curious about what happened to Mu Xi.
So Qin Ming frowned at the magistrate and said: "The people are no trivial matter, their affairs are big things, and our duty is for them." ”
The pusher hurriedly bowed: "Yes, the lower official is taught." ”
Qin Ming nodded: "Well, you stand on both sides, today's first day of the official's appointment, just to try a case, you can also observe." ”
"Yes......"
Forty officials stood on either side, but fortunately the lobby was large enough to be completely uncrowded.
Then Qin Ming said: "Pass on Li Muxi!" ”
"Chuan Li Muxi......" The soap clerk standing at the door of the lobby said.
Not long after, at the door of the mansion, Li Muxi helped a woman slowly walk into the lobby.
She seemed to be a little scared, after all, this formation was too big, hundreds of officials in the courtyard outside were arrested, and there were so many officials in the hall, where had she seen this meeting?
Whoever it is, I guess I'm scared.
Even she didn't dare to raise her head, and the woman she was holding lowered her head and trembled slightly, and whispered to Li Muxi:
"Xiaoxi, don't you forget it...... We can't sue that person......"
Although Li Muxi was also afraid, she gritted her teeth and shook her head: "No, mother, I must sue ......"
"But these officials ...... It's impossible to help us ......" The woman was a little helpless.
Li Muxi said: "If Shuntianfu doesn't work, I will go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and if the Metropolitan Procuratorate can't work, I will go to Dali Temple...... I can't do it, I'll go to the palace......"
"You don't have to go there, here, whoever you want to sue, as long as it's true, will be in charge of you!"
Suddenly, Qin Ming opened his mouth and said, although the voices of the two mothers and daughters were very small, he still heard it.
Hearing Qin Ming's words, the two mothers and daughters were stunned, and then Li Muxi helped her mother, and the two knelt down together, and then spoke:
"My lord, the people have grievances, ask the adults to call the ......"
At this time, the magistrate spoke: "Can you have a paper?" ”
"This ...... There is no ......," Li Muxi kept his head down.
"You don't ...... if you don't have a paper" The pusher seemed to be about to reprimand, but when he saw Qin Ming glaring at him, he was so frightened that he quickly shut up.
"If you don't have a complaint, just tell your grievances!" Qin Ming spoke.
Li Muxi knelt on the ground and said: "My lord, my mother was injured by Feng Gongzi, the son of a wealthy merchant in the imperial capital, last night, and vomited blood......
Qin Ming frowned and glanced at the woman kneeling on the ground.
Looking at her like this, it seems that she is a little unstable when she kneels on the ground, there is indeed blood on her clothes, and her body is much weaker than last night.
No wonder they were all supported by Mu Xi when they came in.
So Qin Ming spoke: "Then why did Feng Gongzi beat your mother?" ”
Li Muxi's weak voice said: "Feng Gongzi wanted me to marry him as a concubine several times, but I didn't agree, and he threatened me to accompany him, but I also refused.
Last night he threatened me again, I didn't obey, but after he left, he led someone to block me outside my house and threatened me to accompany him, otherwise he would beat my mother to death.
My mother begged desperately, and finally wanted me to run, but was seriously injured by Feng Gongzi's kicks several times. Then he tried to forcibly ...... me If I hadn't taken out the scissors I had brought with me and cut my neck to death, I'm afraid I'd ......"
Saying that, Li Muxi cried, and her voice was pitiful.
Qin Ming said, "Let me see your neck." ”
Li Muxi nodded, then turned his head, revealing a wound on his side of his neck.
Qin Ming took a deep breath and said, "At that time, were there any witnesses?" ”
"Yes, the neighbor who lives next door heard the movement and came out to see it!" Li Muxi said.
Qin Ming nodded and said, "Okay, push the official, bring people, arrest Feng Gongzi to be interrogated, and bring Li Muxi's neighbor to testify!" ”
The official came out, bowed down and said to Qin Ming: "My lord, it's really ...... Really scratched? ”
"Can there be a fake?" Qin Ming frowned.
"My lord, then Feng Gongzi is the son of the Feng family, and the Feng family is the top three rich families in the imperial capital......"
The pusher wanted to remind Qin Ming of the Feng family's heritage, but saw Qin Ming frowning and shouting:
"This official asked you to arrest someone, what are you talking nonsense? Hurry up and catch it, and there must be no mistake. ”
The pusher was startled, hurriedly bowed down, and led the people away.
At this time, Shuntian Fucheng spoke: "My lord, if you want to interrogate that Feng Gongzi, you have to be prepared, that guy is not easy to deal with." ”
Qin Ming nodded, this Fu Cheng was also kind to remind him, he naturally wouldn't say anything.
Taking advantage of the time to wait, Qin Ming sat down and asked Fu Cheng: "How is Ling Gongzi doing!" ”
Wen Yanfu bowed: "Speaking of this, I have to thank my lord." If it weren't for the adults teaching the dogs, I'm afraid it would still be a troublemaker in this capital.
Now, he has gained fame under the teaching of adults, which really makes the lower officials shine brightly. These days, the dog is studying in the ministry, and if he performs well, he may be assigned a half-official position. ”
Qin Ming nodded and said, "Not bad." ”
"My lord, Xia Guan was extremely confused at the beginning, and now that he thinks about it, he has no face. Please also sir, don't worry about the lower officials. Fu Cheng said quite embarrassedly.
Qin Ming smiled and said, "In the future, if you are an official in the same house, don't talk about this." ”
Hearing the conversation between the two, the officials on both sides were also in awe of Qin Ming in their hearts.
At the same time, Mu Xi below seemed to be a little relaxed at the moment, and when he heard Qin Ming's voice, he felt a little familiar, so he secretly raised his eyes and quietly glanced at the master of Shuntianfu who was sitting in the daup.
Seeing this, Mu Xi was stunned for a moment.
I saw that the big man sitting above was actually the son who gave her mother and daughter medicine after listening to her song last night.
"Yes...... It's you ......," Mu Xi exclaimed softly.
Qin Ming looked down, and then smiled: "What? Surprised? ”
Mu Xi was stunned for a moment and said, "Hmm~ I didn't expect that you are the eldest master of Shuntian Mansion." ”
"Don't worry, I also saw the scene where Feng Gongzi bullied you last night, and when the witness arrives, I will call the shots for you." Qin Ming said.
Mu Xi bowed: "Thank you, ...... adult"
……
After a while, the magistrate returned, followed by a man in a brocade robe.
This kid was very leisurely, and after entering the public hall with steps, he bowed and bowed:
"I've seen Lord Fu Yin!"
This guy is Feng Gongzi, and behind this guy, there is a person who follows him.
When Qin Ming saw it, he was immediately angry.
Oh, that person is the young man who claims to be the first lawyer of the imperial capital.
The day before yesterday, Qin Ming made people slap his mouth, and today his mouth has not been swollen, but he didn't expect it to pop up again.
The lawyer was also stunned when he saw Qin Ming, and he didn't expect Qin Ming to become Fu Yin.
But then he spoke: "My lord~ I also came to defend Feng Gongzi this time. In addition, our Feng Gongzi also has to sue Li Muxi, here is the paper. ”
As he spoke, he handed out the paper and handed it to the master.
Qin Ming frowned, thinking about what he meant? Defendant becomes plaintiff? Do you still want to say that black is white?
