Hearing that this person called "Chen Gui" was going to the county office, someone asked: "What are you going to the county government for?" The county government does not know the county now, does not accept the case, and waits for the new county to come before allowing the complaint. ”

There are also humanitarians: "If you have any grievances, go to Master Song, and Master Song will administer justice for you."

The sloppy man called "Old Rules" lowered his head and scratched his beard, and muttered: "Master Song......"

Everyone smiled disdainfully and said, "You don't even know Master Song?" Outlander, right? ”

Chen Gui said: "I am indeed a foreigner, a person from Anqiu, Mizhou."

Everyone said: "It's no wonder, Master Song is the savior of our county, and there is no case in this county that Master Song can't solve." If you want to sue, just go to Master Song. ”

"I'm not here to sue......"

He wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the gray-clothed thin man, who pointed to the direction of the county government and said, "The county government is over there, you go with me, although the county master is not there, but we can invite the master to preside over justice." said, and pulled the strong man in green clothes: "Didn't you just say that you are not afraid of seeing officials?" Then do you dare to go with me to see Master Song? ”

The strong man in green clothes muttered: "Although I don't know what Master Song is, but when I see an official, I see an official, who is afraid of whom?" I still say the same thing: I am not afraid of the shadow, and if I didn't steal your money, I didn't steal your money, why did you wronged me? ”

When everyone was about to go to the county government with these three people, Chen Gui suddenly took out an official document from the ministry and said: "Don't hide it, everyone, I am the new county of Xinzhi who is here to take office!"

"What? Is he a Shinchi Prefecture? ”

"It doesn't look like it!"

But everyone looked at the eye-catching official letter of the ministry, and had to believe what he said, the gray-clothed thin man knelt on the ground and looked up in surprise: "Are you really the new county master?"

"Well, I am." Chen Gui said lightly: "If you have any grievances, just tell me."

The thin man in gray pointed to the strong man in green clothes next to him and said: "He stole two of my money, and asked the county lord to uphold justice for the little one!"

Chen Gui looked at the strong man in green clothes and said, "You stole his two pieces of money?"

The strong man in Tsing Yi also knelt down and said, "Master Zhixian, the little one didn't steal the money, the two pieces of money were originally the villain's own."

The gray-clothed thin man said: "You stole the money and denied it!" Shame on you! ”

The strong man in green clothes said: "I didn't steal!" When you see that I have two pieces of money in my hand, you have a bad heart! You're shameless! ”

The stereotype is a little difficult, he just came here to take up his post, and he encountered this kind of difficult case, one was stunned and said that he stole it, and the other was stunned and said that he didn't steal, what should I do?

But after all, he is also a scholar of the Ming Law Department, and he has learned laws and regulations, so he is not at a loss, he raised his head and looked at the audience, and said, "This thing is easy to do!" When judging a case, the emphasis is on evidence, may I ask you, have anyone ever seen this ...... The villagers stole the money of this bitter master? He didn't know what the surnames of these two people were, so he replaced the strong man in green clothes with "this villager", and replaced the thin man in gray clothes with "this bitter master".

After waiting for a long time, no one was willing to stand up and testify, and Chen Gui had a look of distress on his face.

If there are no witnesses to witness it, it will be difficult.

Who stole the money from the thin man in gray can really be said to be known only by God, the earth, the thief, and himself, and no one else knows.

That's going to be tough......

He is a scholar of the Ming Law Department and a descendant of the magistrate, so he categorically cannot do anything to extort confessions by torture.

Thinking of this, I can't help but scratch my head......

It's hard to do......

The strong man in green clothes arched his hand towards everyone at this time, and said: "I said it, I really didn't steal his money, these two pieces of money were obtained by selling medicinal materials in Twenty Mile Pavilion, and my mother hasn't eaten meat for half a year, so let me go to the city to buy some meat and go back."

Speaking of this, he pointed to the thin man in gray and said angrily: "But this person! It's shameless! Say my two dollars are stealing from him! Folks! In the future, we must remember that 'wealth is not exposed' and 'wealth is not exposed'......"

The crowd muttered quietly and talked a lot.

"Hey, this man is filial!"

"Yes, how can such a loyal and filial person be a thief? But this person, with a sharp mouth and monkey gills, looks sneaky at first glance, and he must have deliberately framed him. ”

Some people also say that this gray-clothed thin man is a long-term worker in Wu's Cookcake Shop, and he has been working for the shopkeeper for five years, and he will not do anything to slander people's innocence for two dollars.

In short, the public said that the public was reasonable, and the mother-in-law said that the mother-in-law was reasonable, and after muttering quietly for a long time, he couldn't get a result.

At this moment, everyone suddenly heard a cough, the voice was very slight, but it seemed to have an indescribable attraction.

Everyone looked at the coughing place, and when they saw the person, their faces were full of surprise, and they hurriedly threw their hands towards the person: "Oops! It turned out to be Master Song! ”

"Master Song is here! This case can be broken! ”

"Come on! Master Song! This way, please! ”

The villagers made a way, and several people hurriedly made gestures of invitation, and their faces were both surprised and respectful.

Song Ting was not polite, nodded to everyone with a smile, and walked into the crowd, followed by the ghost sword, bowing his head and not speaking.

Song Ting first arched his hand towards the old rules: "Lord County." Xiaosheng Song Ting, the word Chaozhong, Yangzhou people. ”

The stereotype was overjoyed and muttered, "Oops! It turns out that you are the Master of the Song Dynasty in the Song Dynasty recommended to me by the prefect! I said that they talked about 'Master Song' just now, why do I sound so familiar......"

He bowed his hand to Song Ting and said, "Master Song, I heard that you are resourceful, you see, how to break this situation now?"

Song Ting took two steps forward, faced the strong man in green clothes and the thin man in gray who were kneeling on the ground, smiled implicitly, pointed at the strong man in green clothes, and said to the thin man in gray clothes: "You said that he stole the money?" pointed to the thin man in gray again, and said to the strong man in green clothes: "You said he wanted to cheat you out of your money and frame you?"

"Yes." The two said in unison.

Song Ting laughed calmly twice, and pretended to mutter: "No one at the scene saw how the money was missing, so the only way to ask the money is itself."

"Ask for money? This money doesn't speak? How do you ask for money? ”

"Master has his own tricks, don't talk too much!"

"Come and see, everybody! Master wants to let Qian speak! ”

In an instant, more people came over, and a few young women came over with their babies in their arms.

"How can money speak?" The strong man in green clothes looked at Song Ting, his face full of puzzlement.

Song Ting stretched out his hand: "Do you dare to take out the money?" I can make it talk! ”

The strong man in Tsing Yi was full of reluctance, and several onlookers accused him: "Don't take out the money yet!" Master Song won't ask for your money! Really! ”

The strong man in green clothes finally took out two pieces of money from his waist with a reluctant face and handed them to Song Ting, which has always been a thousand yuan, two pieces of money, and the weight is not small, heavy.

Song Ting held two copper coins in his hand, looked up and asked, "Who can sell me a bucket of water?" I'll be able to let the two coins speak for themselves in no time! ”

A pig killer immediately brought in a bucket of water, and said heartily: "Master Song benefits all the people, what kind of business can be talked about with a bucket of water, it just works!" If it's not small enough, go and fight! ”

"Okay, thank you." After Song Tingchao nodded lightly at the pig killer, he looked up at the audience around him with a smile, "Next, I'll let Tong Qian speak by himself......

After saying that, he threw the two copper coins into the bucket......

Everyone hurriedly lowered their heads and looked into the bucket, and after waiting for a long time, they didn't see any sound coming from the bucket, so they raised their heads and asked Song Ting: "Master Song, why hasn't this copper coin spoken yet?"

"Do you want to do it?" There is also humanity.

"How so?" Song Ting deliberately pretended to be surprised, looked into the bucket, and then smiled: "The copper coin has already spoken!"

Everyone expressed puzzlement, and some felt that they were being teased.

Song Ting lifted the bucket, pointed to the water surface and said, "Everyone, please see, this copper coin was thrown in, and a layer of oil splashed on the surface of the water." He pointed to the gray-clothed thin man and said: "I know this guy, he is the long-term worker of Wu's cooking cake shop, he makes cooking cakes all the year round, and his hands are naturally covered with oil, and the copper coins in his hands naturally bring a lot of oil flowers."

Speaking of this, he smiled faintly: "I think, whether this money was stolen and who stole it, now everyone has counted it in their hearts, right?"

A few people followed, and sure enough, they saw a layer of oil splashing on the surface of the water in the bucket, and listened to Song Ting's analysis, and they all pointed to the strong man in green clothes: "Okay!" It turns out that you really stole these two pieces of money! ”

The strong man in Tsing Yi still denied it: "I didn't steal the money, I sold medicinal herbs in exchange for this money!"

Song Ting said unhurriedly: "You said that you sold medicinal materials in exchange for this money, okay, where did you sell medicinal materials?" Sell to whom? ”

The strong man in Tsing Yi said: "The medicinal materials were sold to Zhang Langzhong of Twenty Miles Pavilion."

Song Ting's eyes stared at him, and he suddenly shouted: "The day before yesterday, there was a collapse in the Twenty-mile Pavilion, the road was blocked, the flood rushed the road, and there was silt flooding everywhere, and if you go there, your shoes will definitely be covered with mud!" Can your shoes ...... How is it so clean? ”

"Take it off! Take it off! Everyone couldn't help but say, took off the shoes of the strong man in green clothes, and saw that the soles of the shoes were really clean, and there was not a little mud.

Song Ting pointed at him again and shouted: "Besides, Zhang Langzhong has not been at home for the past few days, and he went to Suzhou City to see a doctor outside the staff, where did Zhang Langzhong come from?" Is there another Zhang Langzhong? ”

The strong man in Tsing Yi was speechless, and his face was blue.

"Good! Good! Master Song is amazing! ”

"Master Song is wise!"

Everyone clapped their hands and praised Song Ting, and at this time, Cao Bin, the head catcher of the county government, led an old dog, followed by two catchers with knives.

Song Ting pointed to the strong man in Tsing Yi and ordered: "Pull this thief to the lobby to hit the board!"

Although he didn't know what was going on, Cao Bin also raised his hand: "Pull this thief to the lobby to hit the board!"

The two catchers immediately took the strong man in green clothes to the county government hall.

At this time, Song Ting took out the two copper coins in the bucket and gave them to the gray-clothed thin man: "Take your money."

The man had tears in his eyes, and he was busy kowtowing: "Master Song is really a sunny day, thank you for Master Song's great kindness and kindness......"

Song Ting waved his hand, motioned for him to get up, and then walked over to Chen Gui, who immediately surrendered his hand: "Master Song, you are really a genius!" As soon as 'let the copper coin speak', the case was closed! Although I am a scholar of the Ming Law Branch, in front of you, I sigh to myself! ”

He waved his hand again and said, "Master Song, even if the prefect recommends me, I will definitely ask you to be the master!" Let's go down to the restaurant! ”

At this time, the sun was shining warmly, and it was noon, and it was indeed time to eat, so Song Ting smiled and followed this Xinzhi County to the restaurant.

Youjian also followed, Cao Zhutou was dressed in a fast suit, and after being introduced by Song Ting, Chen Gui knew that he was a head catcher, so he was invited.

said that it was a restaurant, not ambiguous at all, and really went to a pergola restaurant by the river, there were two tables in it, and in the cramped storefront, four people sat separately, and the old rules discharged more than 30 yuan from their waists, and said with a smile: "What do you want to eat, just order!" Today I have a treat! Then he asked the shopkeeper, "What do you have here?"

"Somen noodles, mutton noodles, fried screws, minced pork offal, sheep fat sausages, fried duck intestines, mapo tofu...... What do the guests want to order? ”

"What do you want to eat?" Chen Gui looked at the three of them and asked.

Song Ting and Cao Bin, look at me, I look at you, with a smile on his face, this newcomer to the county will not be so poor that he only has a few dozen pennies on his body, right?

No wonder he walked all the way from Michigan to take up his post with a cloak, a bag, and a pair of feet.

This cliché is really funny.

However, Yongtai County seems to have been saved......
