Early the next morning, Kaifeng Mansion opened. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Liu Er stepped forward to beat the drum and voice the grievances, Zhao Tuiguan had already gotten the news from his son, so he had already prepared, and when he heard the sound of the drum, he asked people to pass him in.

Liu Er was introduced into the hall, only to see a "Sunrise in the East" hanging in the middle of the lobby, with a light blue background, and at the bottom of the picture, there was a blue ocean and waves. There is a round of red sun above, and there are cranes flying on it, lifelike. In the middle of the upper part of the picture, the plaque of "Mirror Hanging" is hung high, and there are signs of "Silence" and "Avoidance" on both sides. On each side stood a row of soaps with wind and fire sticks in their hands.

I saw an adult in a cyan official uniform above, with a majestic face, a burly figure, and a forty-year-old appearance, with a brook embroidered on the complement of the official uniform, that is, a purple mandarin duck. The official uniform system of the Ming Dynasty was strict, the rank was different, the color of the official uniform, and the animals embroidered on the chest were different.

That adult is Zhao Tuiguan, his name is Zhao Xiong. I saw him slap the startled wood, and the soaps on both sides knocked on the floor with wind and fire sticks, and shouted in a long voice: "Wei ...... Wu ......: "Well, forgive me for hearing it as "corruption".

Zhao Tuiguan asked, "Who is kneeling in the hall?" ”

Liu Er knelt down and replied: "Villain Liu Er, Wei's county people." ”

Zhao Tuiguan then asked, "People from Weishi County?" What are the grievances, why don't you sue the county government, what is the reason for coming to this government? ”

Liu Erbai cried and complained: "My lord, the villain doesn't dare to sue the county yamen!" ”

Zhao Tuiguan said curiously: "Why is this? ”

Liu Er was busy informing Zhao Tuiguan about his niece's affairs in 1510. also said that the county order of Weishi County shielded his brother-in-law, but his niece sued the county government but was beaten and the case was suppressed, and finally he could only commit suicide with injustice.

Zhao Tuiguan patted the case and scolded: "I didn't expect that there would be such a thing, and the pleadings were passed up!" ”

The soap next to him took the paper from Liu's second-hand and passed it on. Zhao Tuiguan pretended to read the paper for a long time, but in fact, he already knew about this case.

After a while, Zhao Tuiguan raised his head and said: "The matter you are complaining about, the official has already understood, but there are witnesses and physical evidence?" ”

"Yes, the villain's neighbors Aunt Wu and Li Ergouzi can testify for the villain, and the villain's niece also sued the county government before her death, and the child should still be in the county government at this time."

After Liu Er finished speaking, he fell to the ground and exclaimed sadly: "Ask the adults to make decisions for the villains!" ”

"Well, you can relax, this official will investigate this case by himself!"

After Zhao Tuiguan finished speaking to him, he instructed left and right: "Prepare a car and drive, go to Weishi County." ”

Then Zhao Tuiguan took a group of soaps out of Kaifeng City and went directly to Weishi County.

The backyard of the Yamen of Weishi County.

"Hmm...... Yikes...... Your Excellency, you are so bad! ”

In the county master's room, such a coquettish voice came out. This voice is soft and charming, and people will unconsciously think about it when they listen to it.

"Haha, little beauty, let Master Ben love you well!" A man's voice followed.

The county magistrate of Weishi County is called Zhang Yuan, a fat man with a fat head, big ears and a big belly, and he is in his thirties. At this time, he was in the room with his favorite concubine, that is, the eldest lady of the Zhou family and Zhou Xing's sister.

"Master, big things are not good, big things are not good!"

Suddenly heard the call of the maid outside, the two people in the room were interrupted as soon as they arrived at the critical moment, Zhang Xianling's heart was very angry, his face was gloomy and he got up from the jade body, put on his robe, opened the door and scolded: "Bastard thing!" What happened? ”

The maid saw that the county master was unhappy, and knew that she had accidentally broken the adult's good deeds, and replied in a trembling voice: "Wang...... And the king's steward said...... said that an adult came to Kaifeng City, and now he is almost in the yamen. ”

Zhang Xianling was puzzled when he heard this: "Why are the adults in Kaifeng Mansion running here?" ”

The maid replied, "The slave and maid do not know. ”

"Go down."

After Zhang Xianling waved his hand to let the maid go down, he turned around and closed the door, and then instructed the concubine on the bed: "Wait for the lord to change my clothes, and I will go to see this adult." ”

Zhang Xianling put on his official uniform, and as soon as he came out of the backyard, he was told by Steward Wang that Zhao Tuiguan had taken people to the main hall, so he hurried to the main hall.

In the main hall of the Yamen of Weishi County.

Zhang Xianling greeted him and asked, "I don't know why Lord Tuiguan is here today?" ”

The magistrate is half a level older than the county order, so Zhao is full of confidence, and he replied with a smile: "This official came today to borrow your yamen to try a case under your jurisdiction." ”

After hearing this, the county magistrate of Weishi only felt that things were not good, and immediately wanted to sit with him to listen to the trial.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Tuiguan said: "I'm afraid it's inconvenient for Master Zhang to listen today, but this case has something to do with you." ”

Zhang Xianling's face changed when he heard this, and a cold sweat broke out on his back cheeks. turned to say angrily: "Lord Zhao, I, Zhang Yuan, am an official, and although I think that I have no great merits, I am also conscientious and conscientious, and I have never slacked off in the affairs under my jurisdiction. Besides, if the lower officials really have any faults, it doesn't seem to be under your jurisdiction, right? ”

"How Lord Zhang is an official, this official has no right to ask."

Zhao Tuiguan replied slowly: "This official is not here for you today, but the person who is told on this paper is your brother-in-law Zhou Xing, thinking that in order to avoid suspicion, the adult should avoid it for the time being." ”

Seeing his attitude, Zhang Xianling left the main hall with a pale face.

After Zhang County's order left, Zhao Tuiguan sat in the main hall and opened the court to ask about the case.

I only heard Zhao Tuiguan ask Liu Er: "You said that your niece was forcibly raped by Zhou Xing, the eldest young master of the Zhou family, and she sued the county government, but the county ordered Lord Zhang to shield her brother-in-law, beat her board, and suppressed the case, causing her to commit suicide unjustly, but what she said is the truth?" ”

Liu Er hurriedly said: "Adult, what the little one said is true!" ”

Zhao Tuiguan nodded, and then instructed the left and right: "Go and pass Zhou Xing to the hall!" ”

Zhou Xing was summoned by the county government, and he wondered for a while, how could his brother-in-law suddenly summon himself to the court to ask about the case?

When he was taken to the county yazheng hall, he saw that it was not Zhang Xianling who was sitting at the top, and he was stunned for a moment, and he only said in his heart that the assassination was exposed? When he turned his eyes and saw Liu Er kneeling at the bottom of the hall, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.

"The person in the hall is Zhou Xing?" Without waiting for him to think about it, Zhao Tuiguan had already asked out loud.

"It's the villain! I don't know what the adults have to tell the villains to come here? Zhou Xing hurriedly knelt down and answered.

"Liu Er sued you for forcible adultery, can you plead guilty?" Zhao Tuiguan asked directly.

"My lord, you have been wronged!" Zhou Xing hurriedly shouted injustice.

Zhao Tuiguan didn't talk nonsense with him, he had already sent someone to bring someone to testify. As soon as someone proves his crime and identifies his crime in court, the case will naturally be closed. What the? Evidence? Liu Er's niece committed suicide, what other physical evidence do you need? Zhao Tui's official trial of this case does not need this.

Zhao Tuiguan handled the case today, which is called a vigorous and resolute action. After witnesses Wu Damiang and Li Ergouzi were brought to the main hall and Zhou Xing was identified, the defendant Zhou Xing was taken into custody and sentenced to death by hanging. In "Da Ming Law", the sentencing can be heavier or lighter, depending on what adults think about the case. Li Xiuwen didn't say how to sentence him, he knew that Zhao Tuiguan was a smart person. Zhao Tuiguan is indeed very smart, and Li Gongzi did not say it explicitly, so it was naturally a heavy sentence.

As for Zhang Yuan, the county commander of the Wei family, he had no right to detain him, so he just took the certificate that Liu Er's niece left in the county office, and went back to Kaifeng Mansion. To bring down the county master, this also needs to be operated later.

The result of the interrogation on the side of the main hall, Zhang Yuan and Zhang County Commander already knew, he knew that if the case was concluded like this, his career would be over, but he was powerless to return to the sky, and he only said that the big thing was over in his heart! Then in my heart, I greeted my brother-in-law, Zhou Xing's ancestors for eighteen generations.

The old lady of the Zhou family, the "smiling tiger" Zhou Yongwang got the news from the county government, but he couldn't laugh anymore. After pondering for a long time, he wrote a letter and sent someone to Kaifeng. This Zhao Tuiguan's attitude is obviously aimed at his Zhou family, how can a case be concluded so quickly? I only hope that the one in Kaifeng Mansion can act in time to save his son.

Soon Li Xiuwen also received news from Li Dong in Kaifeng City. In this regard, he just smiled faintly, this Zhao Xiong and Zhao pushed officials to do things, and they were really resolute!
