Chapter VI: Suing the Silver and Clearing Grievances (Part I)
Chen Yi was taken to the public court by two officials, and Chen Yi secretly glanced at it, only to see the county master's face clearly. The county magistrate is slightly chubby, his skin is a little dark yellow, he has a goose egg face, his eyes are very small, he can see a small slit when he squints, the bridge of his nose is very high, his lips are very thin, there is a black mole on the corner of his mouth, and there are two or three thin and long beards on the black mole.
The county master, looking at Chen Yi who was brought up, took a closer look, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that it should be a child of a rich and noble family, and his tone of voice changed.
"Don... The Church... Kneeling... Who? For... What's going on... Things hit... Drumming has... What's the grievance? Who is being sued? ”
Chen Yi glanced sideways, Dog Dan and Shui Sheng, gave them a comforting look, signaling them not to be afraid.
"Miss, look, look at the drumming is a beautiful man, more handsome than the son of the master chasing you, did he just look at me, so happy." Biyun put his hands together, and he was about to laugh like a flower, and he was fantasizing in his head, Chen Yi slowly walked towards him, holding her hand and running, and running.
"Biyun, you dead girl, every time you see a beautiful man, your will be committed." The young lady next to her joked about the maid, and it could be seen that their relationship should be particularly good.
"Lord Qiqi, I want to sue Zhang for the silver in the butcher's pocket?" Before Chen Yi finished speaking, the crowd standing outside the yamen smashed the pot, and immediately chattered with each other.
"Sue the silver? This, I'm so big? Haven't heard of it yet? Today, however, I have come to the right yamen. Zhang San whispered to Wang Mazi.
"yes, it's really strange, it's the first time I've encountered such a thing."
"Sue the silver, isn't it strange at this time? It's the first time I've encountered such a thing since I became an official, it shouldn't be from ancient times to the present, I'm afraid that such a case should be the first one, maybe I can still go down in history! The county commander kept thinking in his heart, and a flower was about to bloom in his heart.
"Su... Silence, why do you... To sue... Sue the silver? The county magistrate picked up the shocking wood on the board and slammed it into a row on the board. The chatter subsided.
"Lord Qiqi, I'm going to sue Yinzi for the crime?" Chen Yi stood on the yamen and said humbly
"You're going to say... Sue Yinzi Ho... What is the crime? The county magistrate put his hands on his thighs and asked.
"My lord, please listen carefully to the villain, the villain wants to sue the silver for the first great sin, accuse it, and when the master is wronged, he does not come out for the master to defend himself, so that the master suffers a strange injustice, and the protection of the lord is unfavorable, but it is unfaithful; The second great sin is unrighteousness not to be punished for his master when he is punished. Chen Yi, looking at the county magistrate sitting on it, said calmly, thinking that one day I will change this feudal system.
Kneeling behind, when Zhang Tuhu heard this, he felt that something was wrong.
"That asks the guilt... Sin Silver, now body... Being in and... And where? The county commander hurriedly asked.
"My lord, that sin silver is on the body of Zhang Butcher?" After Chen Yi finished speaking, he pointed at Zhang Butcher and said.
"You... You are open-mouthed, I haven't seen you, how can the sin silver be on me, will it be on me, Lord Qingtian! You're going to call the shots for me! Zhang Butcher, kneeling on the ground, said loudly, and rubbed his eyes with his hand from time to time, if he could give Zhang Butcher a film and television award, the best performance award would definitely be him.
"If you don't believe it, you can ask people to search for it."
"Come... Someone to give... Search for me. ”
As soon as the county commander finished speaking, two officials walked out from both sides, and the two pressed Zhang Butcher to the floor, and from his arms, they searched out a bag of silver, and a little loose silver that was not packed into the bag.
"Lord Qiqi, this is the silver tael that his subordinates found from the butcher's chest, please take a look." The two bent over, one of them put the money bag in his hand in the palm of his hand, and the person standing next to the county order hurriedly took the silver in his hand and handed it to the county order.
"Lord Qingtian, this is the silver that Xiaomin has worked so hard to earn, how can it be the silver of sin? Your Excellency, you must call the shots for me. ”
The county order, looking at the bag of silver in his hand, no matter how he looks at it, it is no different from the silver he usually uses, how can it be sin silver?
"It's... This and I... What we usually do... the silver used, and... And there is no district... The difference, how do you break ... Assert it... It's what you describe... The sin described... What about the silver of sin? You don't... Don't play... Teasing the official? ”
The county order kept looking at the silver taels in his hands, really looking forward and back, left and right, and didn't understand.
"Master Qingtian, I think he is deliberately teasing you, you don't think you must be fooled by him."
"You, give... Shut me up... Shut up, this official judges... Judgment of the case... When to... I want you... You're pointing fingers. Chenyi, you have to be like this... How to prove... Prove that you say... What to say... Is the word true? ”
Before Zhang Tuhu's words were finished, he was interrupted by the county order tirelessly, he still wanted to be famous, and seeing the opportunity in his hand, how could he let the opportunity be lost in vain.
"Lord Qiqi, please send two people to bring two basins of water, and the adults will know when they see it."
"Okay, come on... Come on, give this official end... End two pots... Basin of clear water... Water comes. ”
About five snaps of their fingers later, the two officials brought the copper basin containing the clear water to the public court. (Five snaps, here refers to time, which is about one minute.) )
"How's this... How to district... Distinguish? ”
"Lord Qiqi, let the villain show you, and you will understand."
"Okay, quick, quick demonstration," the county magistrate said anxiously.
The onlookers outside wanted to know what the criminal silver looked like. People are using the strength of milk, and involuntarily stretch their necks for the elderly, the elderly, so they only have to put a giraffe neck on themselves, and some people who are not tall enough are standing on tiptoe.
Chen Yi stood up, took the silver, and surrounded two basins full of water, turning left three times and right three times, and people's eyes were constantly moving with Chen Yi's circle.
Suddenly, Chen Yi stopped his body, and picked up the silver to look left and right, front and back to see, people thought that Chen Yi should have a special method for judging silver, but in fact, it was not, in fact, Chen Yi deliberately held the time, waiting for two people.
When Chen Yi saw two people coming from a distance, he stopped looking at the silver in his hand, asked the official to help put the two basins on the stool, and said loudly:
"Don't blink, it's time to witness the miracle!" As soon as he finished speaking, he first poured all the silver in his wallet into the basin on the left, waited for two or three seconds, saw that there was no change in the water, and put the silver in his hand into the basin on the right. ”
"My lord, please come down and take a look."
The county order walked down from the board quickly, and carefully looked at the clear water in the two basins.
