Yangzhou Mansion, on the court.

Jiang Yao was dressed in official uniform and sat behind the court desk with a gloomy face. On the left is Liu Tianmin, the same acquaintance of the Yangzhou Mansion. On the right, Huang Ze should have been seated. But the general judge Huang Ze is more than 70 years old, but he just has a name in the Yangzhou Mansion and does not come to be an errand.

To say that Jiang Yao, the prefect, is really tired. In the Ming Dynasty, the prefect was in charge of the decrees of a government, and the commander-in-chief of each county was responsible for announcing state decrees, governing the people, adjudicating lawsuits, inspecting traitors, evaluating subordinate officials, collecting taxes, and other government affairs. Besides, the prefect of Jiang Yao still makes a fuss from time to time to inspect the people's situation, and the people make private visits or something.

Jiang Yao was originally accompanied by two deputies, one with the same knowledge and the other with the general judgment. It stands to reason that for a trivial matter like today, Jiang Yao does not need to go through the trial in person. But one was sentenced to be sick for a long time, and Liu Tianmin, a fellow acquaintance, although he was only in his twenties and was in the prime of life, he had just been appointed by the imperial court and did not know anything about Yangzhou affairs. There was no way, Jiang Yao had to go to the court in person to ask about the case.

Zhao Wenhua stepped into the lobby of the mansion first, and when Jiang Yao saw that it was him, his eyebrows immediately tightened, and his head was a little big.

After Qin Li and Lin Yan'er came in, Jiang Yao was even more stunned and surprised.

Although Zhao Wenhua was a showman, he stood proudly in the public court, with an angry face, glanced at Jiang Yao a few times, and then said what happened just now. Of course, he completely put what he did on Qin Li's head. and said that Qin Li's mad dog bit people indiscriminately and framed him. He even punched and kicked him, and finally begged the prefect to make decisions for him.

Qin Li couldn't help but wonder a little when he saw Zhao Wenhua standing in the public hall without kneeling. immediately thought of this, Zhao Wenhua can't wait to ignore him, he is by no means an ordinary talent, maybe he has a deep background, otherwise he would not have dragged himself to see the official.

Qin Li is a lifter, and when he sees the official, he does not kneel, so he naturally stands in the public court. Lin Yan'er and Liu Jiao, Liu Feng's sisters and brothers, as well as Ergou and Hou San, two evil slaves, knelt down.

What made Qin Li wonder all the time was that the two evil slaves, Ergou and Hou San, said that they were going to come to see the official, but they did not escape, and they did not have the slightest fear. It seems that he doesn't know that if he enters the government, he will be punished by the Ming Law.

Zhao Wenhua saw that Qin Li did not kneel, and Jiang Yao's prefect did not care at all. Zhao Wenhua also glanced at Jiang Yao from time to time, but Jiang Yao was even more out of sight. Zhao Wenhua was also surprised. Xindao, it seems that this little cub is a little bit of a good place today.

Although Jiang Yao and Qin Li have known each other for a long time, at this time in the court, Jiang Yao also pretended not to know Qin Li, and asked in detail what happened.

After listening to Zhao Wenhua's story, he asked Qin Li again, obviously Zhao Wenhua and Qin Li said very differently, Jiang Yao couldn't help but be very suspicious and uncertain.

It is said that Jiang Yao and Qin Li have been in contact several times, and Jiang Yao has already determined that Qin Li is a treacherous villain and a flatterer. But such a villain actually saved several women trapped by Wu Jing in Yangzhou. He risked his life to fight with Jiang Bin and kept the mansion of Wang Dingsheng in Yangzhou. Then he and the emperor, Liu Niangniang skillfully maneuvered, and even asked the emperor to behead Wu Jing.

Jiang Yao couldn't see Qin Li more and more clearly. It was because he was skeptical of what Qin Li said.

Regarding what Zhao Wenhua said, Jiang Yao believed more. In fact, for Jiang Yao, if she didn't believe Zhao Wenhua's words, she would be very uneasy and guilty, and she felt that she couldn't live alone.

When Jiang Yao was a child in a private school, there was an enlightenment teacher, although the teacher was just an ordinary country talent, he had bad luck, and he failed to pass the exam more than a dozen times. But he is a person who is familiar with the Four Books and the Five Classics and has a very quick thinking. And the requirements for Jiang Yao are very strict, not only teaching Jiang Yao to read and write, but also teaching Jiang Yao a lot of principles of life, and placing deep hopes on Jiang Yao.

The teacher's grace is unforgettable, and the teacher's kindness is unforgettable.

To this day, Jiang Yao brings gifts to visit this enlightenment teacher every year.

Coincidentally, Jiang Yao's enlightenment teacher is Zhao Wenhua's grandfather Zhao Hongen. It is precisely because of this reason that Jiang Yao and Zhao Wenhua naturally know each other, and to a large extent, Jiang Yao respects Zhao Hongen's personality and also values his grandson Zhao Wenhua.

Usually, Jiang Yao went to Zhao Hongen's house, and Jiang Yao and Zhao Wenhua often discussed some scientific research knowledge and the truth of life. In Jiang Yao's heart, he thinks that Zhao Wenhua is a very stable, honest and loyal, very talented and smart person.

In addition, in addition to this relationship, Zhao Wenhua's maternal uncle is the magistrate of Jiangdu County, named Zheng Yunlin. Zheng Yunlin is usually very close to Jiang Yao, although the two are subordinates, they are friends to a large extent.

Originally, there were two parties Ergou and Hou San, Liu Jiao and Liu Feng. But Jiang Yao's face sank like water, and he didn't interrogate them. There was a moment of silence in the courtroom, and there was silence. The officials standing on both sides look at me, I look at you, looking inexplicable. But no one dared to speak, and did not dare to do much.

Jiang Yao's brain is spinning rapidly, what should I do? Jiang Yao was really embarrassed.

If what Zhao Wenhua said is true, then things will be too easy to do. He will immediately arrest Qin Li and deal with it according to the law. Even if he Qin Li is a royal gift, Jiang Yao is not afraid.

But if what Qin Li said was true, Jiang Yao was embarrassed. Then you have to deal with Zhao Wenhua. If you really dispose of Zhao Wenhua, hehe! How can Jiang Yao be worthy of his teaching and enlightenment teacher? It is not easy to explain to his subordinate Jiang Duzhi County Zheng Yunlin.

And Jiang Yao suddenly found that Qin Li's wife, Lin Yan'er, was actually supporting the emaciated singing woman with no blood on her face. Lin Yan'er looked angry, and seemed to be very sympathetic and concerned about the woman in the store. Again, looking at the two slaves, their faces were arrogant and proud, and they secretly exchanged glances with Zhao Wenhua from time to time.

Jiang Yao's heart moved, and he had already come to a correct conclusion. Although he was very reluctant to believe that this was true, and did not believe that Zhao Wenhua, a young man who was usually loyal and weak, would do such a hurtful thing, but the truth of the facts did not need to be interrogated at this time, and it was already clear.

And Jiang Yao thought further along with this result, and quickly understood Zhao Wenhua's intentions. Because Zhao Wenhua knew him, he had a lot of friendship, and he never asked him to do anything. This time, I want to use my own prefect to suppress Qin Li, and teach Qin Li a good lesson!

But...... Alas! It's okay to teach Qin Li a lesson, but you need to stand on reason! This is ignored, he framed Qin Li for a hard time, and he insisted on deducting on Qin Li, so is Qin Li an easy character to deal with? Qin Li coped with it easily in front of the emperor, it was really not easy.

Jiang Yao looked at the woman Liu Jiao in the store carefully, although Liu Jiao's face was pale and her right arm was difficult to lift, there was no fatal injury. Jiang Yao secretly smiled bitterly, alas! There's no way, I, Jiang Yao, will try the case with a clear conscience.
