Chapter 23 Ascension to the Case

Zhou Ning returned to the back office and rested for a quarter of an hour, only drank a cup of tea, and began to change clothes. The official uniform of the pen, fun and pavilion www.biquge.info is not just a set, there are people who are promoted to the hall to wear, and there are inspectors who go out to inspect and wear, and these little things cannot be wronged.

Lu Qing muttered while helping Zhou Ning get dressed: "I'm busy smoking, I won't rest for a while, I haven't slept in bed for two nights, can I stand up to being confused in the sedan chair for a while?" ”

"Didn't you hear her say that she was suing for murder? The sooner the trial is conducted, the more clues there are, and the later the trial, the more difficult it will be to find out. Zhou Ning straightened the black yarn on his head and asked Lu Qing: "There's no problem, right?" ”

The clothes are with eight points of official prestige, and if the clothes are not worn properly, it seems that the person is not correct enough, how can he convince people if he is not right? Lu Qing swept up and down, and nodded after confirming that there was no problem.

"There are more murder cases, but there is only one county master, and you can't manage it if you are tired, why can't you sue one who comes first and then comes? Just ask her to write a copy and submit it, and then go home and wait. ”

Lu Qing couldn't help but persuade Zhou Ning in the end, and Zhou Ning has been so busy kicking the back of his head since he took office. It's just a small seven-rank county order, but in fact, he's busier than the first-rank prime minister.

Every day when I go out early and return late, it is common to handle cases by candlelight. Yunjiang County is not big, but it is said that the county seat is not large, and the scope under the jurisdiction of Yunjiang County is still not small.

Zhou Ning has only been in office for less than three months, and he has walked through most of the land in Yunjiang County in more than two months. Although most of the time when going out, they either ride a horse or sit in a sedan chair, it is really rare for officials who are willing to work so hard.

Zhou Ning enjoyed it, but he didn't feel hard. I don't dare to say that he will benefit one party for the first term of office, but at least he must be dutiful and worthy of his official uniform.

Hearing Lu Qing say this, he lowered his face and glared at him: "Human life is at stake, and there is no room for delay." With that, he strode towards the front hall.

Lu Qing didn't dare to say anything back, so he quietly stuck out his tongue behind his back. Head.

"Might~Martial~"

The sound of the hall number came from the lobby, and the side hall was the place where the people involved in the case temporarily stayed before going to the hall, which was very close to the lobby, and the voice in the lobby was heard very clearly.

Zhang Liu didn't need to be summoned, she couldn't sit still when she heard the sound of the hall horn, she stood up suddenly, and her heart rose to her throat for a moment.

The official quietly reminded her: "Don't be afraid, just reply to what the adults ask." ”

"Yes." Zhang Liu swallowed hard, and reluctantly pulled out a stiff smile at the officer: "Thank you, Master Jun." ”

Who is the military master? The official knew that the person she said was himself, and he didn't bother with her, so he replied, "It's nothing. ”

At this time, there was a sound of water and fire sticks poking the ground in the lobby, and Zhang Liu's scalp was numb when he heard it, what was going on?

How do you take a stick and knock it on the ground? She suddenly remembered that the people in the village said that 'going to the lobby is to be boarded', and it seemed to be true.

She gritted her teeth, her heart was horizontal, whatever she wanted, even if she had to fight a hundred kills in the court, she would risk her life. Death, Zhang Liu is not afraid now, what she is afraid of is that death will not be able to punish the evil and eliminate the evil.

There is such an opportunity to go to the lobby, even if you die, you must cherish it. She had just witnessed how Zhou Ning resolved the dispute on the street.

So many people praised her, she believed that she must have met a Qing official, as long as she could wronged and avenge her sister-in-law Zhaoxue, she didn't care if she would be punished.

'Smack! ’

The first time he heard the sound of the startling wood, Zhang Liu, who didn't know what it was, was frightened. Before he could calm down, he heard someone in the lobby shouting: "Bring the complainant to the court!" ”

Immediately after that, a series of voices came down with the words, 'Bring the complainant to court!' 'Bring the complainant to court!' ......, it sounds like an echo.

When one person speaks, many people repeat it in an orderly manner, which in itself is a kind of momentum.

"Let's go." The official looked at Zhang Liu's like a piece of wood, and smiled secretly in his heart, "This person is really weird, she stood up early, and the adults summoned her to stop moving." ’。

"Huh?" Zhang Liu was stunned for a moment, and then understood that the adult was summoning her. "Oh, good." She was so nervous that her body nodded as if it was a little stiff, wiped her hands vigorously on the placket of her clothes, wiped the sweat from her palms, and followed behind the servant.

Walking out of the door, the official motioned for her to go ahead, she lifted her skirt and stepped over the high threshold, and walked forward without raising her head.

When they arrived at the main hall, the official saluted Zhou Ning and retreated silently. Zhang Liu's 'poof' knelt down, supported the ground with both hands and hurriedly kowtowed to the county master.

"The woman kowtows to the old man, and asks the old man to make the decision for the woman." Zhang Liu has never been to the lobby, and he doesn't know any rules.

She only knew that when she came up, she would kowtow to the county magistrate and beg the county magistrate to help solve the case and catch the murderer.

The vast majority of good people don't understand the rules of the church, and Zhou Ning never picks this. He let out a soft 'um' and asked, "Who's kneeling?" ”

Zhang Liu looked left and right, and she was kneeling alone, she must have asked her. She raised her head blankly and looked directly at Zhou Ning again, how to answer this question?

She moved her lips not knowing what to say, she pointed to the tip of her nose and said, "Me." ”

Zhou Ning frowned slightly, what is it for you?

After being stunned for a few seconds, Zhou Ning understood what Zhang Liu meant. Zhou Ning asked her, 'Who is kneeling?' and she didn't know where to live and what her name was in her hometown.

The officials on both sides couldn't help but laugh, what is the structure of this stupid girl's brain? It's too funny, isn't it you who kneels? Nonsense the same.

Zhou Ning didn't blame her, but reflected on whether there was a problem with his question. A peasant woman in the countryside doesn't know a single big character, and you should speak as much vernacular as possible when communicating with her, and speaking official in an official tone is likely to cause communication barriers.

Barrier communication will widen the distance between people, which will make her more confused and afraid. If a peasant woman hadn't been forced to the point where she had no way out, she would probably be very reluctant to go into the yamen to complain, right?

"Where do you live?" Zhou Ning didn't shoot the wood, nor did he make a loud voice, and he didn't even say 'where does the family live, what is the surname', and tried to communicate with her like a chatter.

Hearing Zhou Ning's question, Zhang Liu blinked his eyes and quietly let out a sigh, how good is this, this is what he said.

"My family lives in Shixi Village."

"Oh, what's your name and how old are you?"

"My name is Liu Yufeng, and I'm twenty-eight years old."

Zhang Liu was very nervous, she firmly remembered the question that the official had told her just now, and the county magistrate could answer whatever she asked, and she couldn't talk nonsense.
