Chapter 54: The Entry Point
It has been three days since the Yakai of Yecheng County, but in three days, the entire Yamen of the Mansion can be full of birds, and at the entrance of the Yamen, the four big characters of redress for the people are extremely eye-catching, but no one cares, Pang Tong was sent by Lu Bu to judge the case, and he was lying in the Yamen all day long with nothing to do, and he was also happy.

Thinking of the fact that Lu Bu sent him to be in charge of the criminal investigation and judgment three days ago, Pang Tong was furious but had nowhere to vent.
"Champion Hou, are you mistaken, I didn't owe allegiance to you?" Pang Tong stared at Lu Bu with his neck on the same day to ask for an explanation.
"Yes, General Ben doesn't remember accepting your allegiance, just asked you to help me, you have come to my account for so long, eat and drink for nothing, after Shiyuan is a famous family, there will be guilt, rest assured, this time I will give you Yulu, five stones per month, this is not my Hussar Mansion set by Yulu, but the official service of the Han Dynasty, Shiyuan should be for the imperial court." Lu Bu's smiling appearance definitely looked more annoying than when he was cold.
, isn't that the same?
Pang Tong rolled his eyes, but his arms couldn't twist his thighs, just like Frustration, Lu Bu didn't accept his allegiance, just used his talents, in Lu Bu's words, it can be used by me, what's even more hateful is that these people who are used by him are distributed according to the old system of the Han Dynasty, and the benefits of Lu Bu's subordinates have nothing to do with them, Pang Tong is okay, and Frustration is still working for Lu Bu in the Western Regions, thinking about it, the mood seems to be better.
If someone really comes to avenge the grievances, Pang Tong will not really care, but if no one comes, don't think that Pang Tong will take the initiative to help Lu Bu break this deadlock.
Lu Bu's plan to unify the two is nothing more than to divide the family and the people of Jizhou, intensify the contradictions, and establish Lu Bu's credibility in Jizhou, in Lu Bu's words, that is called credibility.
If it really happens, no matter whether Yecheng can be taken by Lu Bu in the end, but the people's will is there, and then all of Lu Bu's decrees can be better implemented, according to Pang Tong's understanding of Lu Bu, I am afraid that this process will soon be spread by Lu Bu throughout Jizhou in various ways.
Sometimes Pang Tong doesn't understand, is it really appropriate for you to be so vicious as a general? This is digging the roots of the family!
If Lu Bu continues to win like this, Pang Tong estimates that in the end, the family will have to give in to Lu Bu and give up a lot of privileges, which is different from Cao Cao and other princes of the Central Plains, because whether it is Cao Cao, Liu Biao or Sun Quan and Liu Zhang, they themselves belong to the wealthy family, even if they can see the harm of the family, but in the huge system of the family, many things, they can only be gradually resolved in a subtle way, but Lu Bu is equivalent to a person outside the family system, he does not need to follow the rules in the family circle, What he wants to do is to break these rules with great force, and then on this basis, re-establish the rules that belong to Lu Bu, which is what Lu Bu often calls the legal system!
Originally, Pang Tong didn't think this was right, like most families, waiting to see Lu Bu's jokes, however, Yongliang and even Hetao, the Western Regions and later the merger of states, under Lu Bu's system, not to mention the Han people, even those naturalized Hu people and Qiang people also became loyal supporters of Lu Bu, such a result made Pang Tong stunned, which is also a reason why he never left here, he really wanted to see how far Lu Bu could go.
The sound of cicadas is a little annoying, but the four big characters on the list at the door are a little ironic at the moment, secretly, I don't know how many people are waiting to see Lu Bu's jokes, at the entrance of the government office, four soldiers who were admitted to Han nationality by Lu Bu after making meritorious service put on their helmets and stood in front of the door, even if the government yamen was full of birds, they also straightened their chests.
"Captain Wu, look at that person, he's been hanging here several times." A soldier stood up to the captain and pointed to a strong man who was looking at the street from time to time.
"Hmm." Wu Chang nodded, then stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder in the strong man's shocked gaze, and said in half-baked Chinese: "You person, why are you wandering here?" ā
"Uh......" The strong man hesitated: "Grass man Li Ping, it was originally a ......"
Wu Chang was a little furious, and frowned: "I didn't ask who you are, what are your intentions here?" ā
"Yes." The strong man glanced at the government office: "Can you redress your grievances here?" "No matter how you look at these people, it doesn't look like a place to avenge the people.
"Of course, isn't that written?" Wu Chang patted the list notice beside him.
"The villain is illiterate." The strong man smiled bitterly.
"Ha, it's a coincidence, I don't know either." Wu Chang touched his head and said, "Since it is revenge, then come in, and I will take you to see the adult." ā
"Thank you, big brother, it's a little meaning, it's not a tribute." The strong man hesitated, took out a few large coins from his sleeve and handed them to the other party.
"What does that mean?" The grassland people have a straightforward personality, and they really don't know how to deal with this kind of thing, so they touched their heads and said: "The lord didn't say that he wanted to collect money, you go in with me first, and after asking the lord, if you can collect the money, you will ask you again." ā
"Ha~" When the strong man heard this, his original worried mood was relieved, these people looked fierce and vicious, but they were very straightforward, and they were different from the soldiers they had seen before.
But soon, when I saw Pang Tong, who was drunk and unconscious in the county government, and had an ugly face, my heart was cold again, this kind of person can really avenge the people?
"My lord, don't sleep, someone has avenged you!" Dissatisfied knocked on the table and woke Pang Tong up.
"Is there really anyone who has avenged him?" Pang Tong raised his head drunken and glanced at Li Ping: "If you have any grievances, let's talk about it." ā
"My lord, do you want to sober up first?" The strong man looked at Pang Tong and hesitated, in this state, it is really hard to say whether he can handle the case.
"Ha, come and see if I can break it for you." Pang Tong smiled and said proudly.
"Yes."
The strong man's name is Li Ping, and he is the family member of the former Wei County Taishou Li Fu's family.
Li Fu is Yuan Shao's brother-in-law, who is quite influential in Yecheng, and as Li Fu's family, Li Ping's life is not bad.
The case happened three years ago, Li Ping, as Li Fu's family, also has some land in the family, seeing that he has reached the age, the family Zhang Luo helped him ask for a family matter, his wife is a girl in a village outside Yecheng, she looks good, and the young couple has a good life after marriage, but unfortunately, one day his wife came to visit Li Ping, but he was bumped into by Li Fu, and saw the beauty of Li Ping's wife, and had a bad heart, so he dragged Li Ping's wife into his room.
The things that followed were a bit old-fashioned, the wife was humiliated and committed suicide, this kind of thing is actually very common in this era, but Li Ping is a man and has a lot of ability, after learning about it, his mind was hot, and he went to Li Fu to seek justice.
Justice naturally did not get it, but was kicked out of the Taishou Mansion with a broken leg, and Li Fu was angry that Li Ping dared to do something to him, and in a fit of anger, he sent someone to arrest Li Ping's family and put him in prison, and it didn't take long for the news of his death to come, Li Ping was resentful, but he was helpless, but he was unwilling to give up, and after spending a year to recuperate from his injuries, he returned to Yecheng and waited for an opportunity to retaliate, but it was a pity that the small people of Shengdou had no great ability in this era, and they wanted to take revenge on Li Fu and other party members, which was undoubtedly a fool's dream.
Lu Bu's arrival made Li Ping see hope, so he wanted to give it a try, if he could take revenge, it would be the best, even if he couldn't, the result would not be worse.
Pang Tong closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair, it sounded very miserable, but he was born in a family, this kind of thing, from childhood to adulthood, he has seen too much, most of the time, this kind of case, he doesn't even have a chance to file a case, and he can only hold it until he dies, but now it's different, Pang Tong knows very well what Lu Bu wants, this kind of case was bumped into by Lu Bu, it can be said that he just handed the knife to Lu Bu, what he needs is the hearts of the people, what he needs is to stir up the confrontation between the people and the scholars.
What to do?
Pang Tong hesitated a little, and after a long time, Pang Tong slowly opened his eyes, looked at Li Ping, and there was a sense of indifference in his voice, turned his head to look at the Wu Chang and said, "Wuhai, you go and inform the people in the Department of Justice to collect information." ā
"Whoa!" Wuhai nodded and strode away.
"You're here, it's just a good time!" Pang Tong looked at Li Pingdao, who was at a loss.
"What does this mean, sir?" Li Ping looked at Pang Tong blankly, puzzled.
"I can't control this matter, I'm afraid the hussar general will personally ask about it!" Pang Tong stood up, shook his head and sighed, I didn't expect to come for three days, this time, it is a case directly involving Wei Jun Taishou, and next, I am afraid that there will be busy.
"Huh~?"
Li Ping was stunned, hussar general, isn't that the champion Hou Lubu? That is a figure of the same status as Yuan Shao, and he actually wants to personally inquire about this matter?
"Wait, there will be results soon." Pang Tong shook his head, this was a struggle between Lu Bu and the family, and he didn't want to get involved.
Just when Li Ping was ignorant, soon, under the leadership of Wu Hai, a team of hussar guards came in with a young scribe.
"Fa Xiaozhi? Lu Bu actually sent you? The corner of Pang Tong's eyes twitched, he didn't expect Lu Bu to send Fa Zheng directly, Fa Yan is now under Lu Bu's command, and he is suspicious, although Fa Zheng rarely interferes in the affairs of the Department of Justice, but he is not very popular.
"There's no way, the lord knows that Shiyuan doesn't want to get involved in this matter, so he can only take care of it from below." Fa Zheng smiled slightly and bowed to Pang Tongyi.
"Then it's up to you." Pang Tong waved his hand, too lazy to say these vain polite words to Fa Zheng, looked at the chair and leaned back, and said no more.
"You are Li Ping?" Fa Zheng didn't care, and turned his head to look at Li Pingdao.
"It's the villain." Li Ping nodded hurriedly.
"Do you know that under the rule of our army, falsely accusing an official is a serious crime." Fa Zheng said in a deep voice.
"The villain knows, please make the decision for the villain." Li Ping knelt on the ground, gritted his teeth and said, this may be the last chance for him, he doesn't want to give up.
"Good!" A gleam flashed in Fa Zheng's eyes, and he turned his head to look at Zhou Cang beside him and said: "Please General Zhou order all gates, block the city gates, from now on, no one is allowed to enter or exit, General Jiang, you go and bring people, invite Li Fu here, and then release the news, this case, I want to try it publicly!" ā
Pang Tong, who was sitting on the chair, suddenly opened his eyes when he heard this, glanced at Fa Zheng leisurely, shook his head, stood up and dragged the wine bottle away, it seemed that there should be nothing to do here. (To be continued.) )
