The hearts of the people who were hearing the trial outside the court were also throbbing after learning the truth of this case. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info originally just wanted to see the lively them, but after listening to the county order that it was to convict the Xu family of occupying other people's land, they didn't feel a little biased towards the county government.

Because many of these people have been robbed of land by the Xu family, even if they have not been taken away from the dozens of acres of land that they rely on for their livelihood like Deng Bo, they have suffered a big loss in the hands of the Xu family, but they cannot get justice. If the county magistrate can really convict the Xu family this time, and even force them to return the land, does it symbolize that the family can also use the same way to regain the property that was robbed?

There are also some well-informed and nimble people who think of the lawsuit that happened in Yangzhou City that has been reported before. I heard that the Li family, which had a lot to do with the Xu family, was completely planted in Yangzhou Mansion, and their whole family was convicted of a lot of crimes, and the origin of this was a lawsuit with a drum beating and complaining.

Thinking about Yangzhou, and then looking at the eyes, all the people unconsciously have a different kind of expectation. Of course, some rational people are still not optimistic about this lawsuit, how can the Li family be compared with the Xu family? Moreover, there is the prefect of Yangzhou, at least he has a certain amount of power, and the eldest man of his own family, except for this one, has been completely ignored before, how can he fight such a behemoth as the Xu family without power and power?

Although they think so, most people are still full of hope that a miracle will happen. It's a pity that everyone's prayer failed to help the county order, and Xu Chang only made everyone's mood fall to the bottom with just one understatement.

Although he was forced to kneel under the hall due to the situation, Xu Chang still exuded a condescending momentum at the moment. I saw his gaze sweeping over the county order, the yacha and the people outside the hall one by one, so he cleared his throat and said: "Master, it seems that you haven't checked the details of this case at all, so I'll tell you here." Our Xu family took his Deng family's land, but it was not robbed, but bought, and it was bought from his Deng family with real money. I still have the notes I signed when I bought and sold......" As he spoke, he reached into his sleeve and pulled out a piece of paper full of words.

As soon as these words came out, not only those who heard the trial, but also the county magistrate was stunned, and he immediately turned his eyes to Deng Bo on the side, his eyes full of suspicion. If this person can't come up with decent evidence, but the Xu family comes up with the written evidence to buy the land, then the oolong of this court trial will be big.

Deng Bo, who was kneeling on the side, heard this, his body trembled, and then he kowtowed vigorously, and said with red eyes: "My lord, this land was not sold to them by the villain at all, it was my brother's ......."

"You still have brothers?" The county commander's heart was tightened again, knowing that he had been in a hurry before, and he forgot to know more details and did something to the Xu family, this time it might be worse.

At this time, a famous official had already consciously taken over the note from Xu Chang without the instructions of the county order, and then submitted it to the long case. In terms of status, this Xu steward is higher than the county order.

Even if he was unhappy, the county order couldn't be attacked, so he could only pick up the note and look at it carefully, and said to Deng Bo: "You tell everything, and you can't hide anything." ”

"Yes...... It's ......" Deng Bo knew that he had concealed the inside story and was very nervous, and his speech was even more stumbling than just now. It took a long time to tell me what happened.

It turned out that Deng Bo had a brother named Deng Tao, but because his parents died and the two brothers had conflicts, they separated early. But when the family was separated, there was always a dispute over the land left by his father and ancestors, because Deng Bo was a brother, so he divided it more.

Originally, although Deng Tao was dissatisfied with this matter, he didn't pay too much attention to it, because he was more flexible than his brother, and he had a much better life than his brother through business. But I didn't expect that there would be unforeseen circumstances, in a previous business, he broke the book, and owed people hundreds of taels of silver, coincidentally, this silver is still owed to the Xu family.

As a result, Deng Tao's life is extremely difficult. In order to get rid of the predicament, and at the same time thought of the benefits that his brother had obtained when he split the family, he turned his heart and gave away the old Deng family's property......

After listening to Deng Bo's narration and understanding the handwritten notes in his hand, the county commander's brows furrowed: "How can this really be true, since this land property belongs to Deng Bo, where does his brother have the right to give it to your Xu family?" Do you want to convince the ruler with this evidence? ”

"I do admit that because of other mundane affairs, my Xu family has not been able to come to the yamen in time to transfer the household, but this is not a sin." Xu Chang humbly admitted his mistake.

"You don't want to avoid the important and take it lightly, what the official said is that you have no possibility of trading at all!"

"Your Excellency's words are wrong!" Xu Chang suddenly shook his head vigorously: "Our transaction with that Deng Tao is absolutely legal. Because the name of their father Deng Zhuo is still written on the field, as a son of man, both Deng Bo and Deng Tao have the right to give up the field! ”

"What?" The county commander was so shocked that he almost stood up, and after he turned his gaze to Deng Bo, his heart sank even more, just looking at his shrunken appearance, he knew that what Xu Chang said was true.

In fact, this kind of thing was also extremely common in that era, and ordinary people have always avoided the government, paying attention to not entering the official door in life, and not going to hell in death. And for such a thing as separating the family from the real estate of the land, if they really want to change their name, they have to go to the yamen to go through many procedures, and they have to honor the officials, so they can naturally be exempted.

If the brothers are separated, generally speaking, they just find a middleman to talk about it, so why bother so much, it is the name of the field, and sometimes the name of the ancestor who is left. Generally speaking, this is not a problem, but today's case has caused trouble in this regard.

Xu Chang saw the county commander's surprised look, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Master, with these evidence, you can't say that our Xu family is bullying people, right?" He knew very well that as long as the other party was suppressed this time, it would be difficult for this madman to make any waves in Huating County. And if the Xu family wants to deal with him, they can also use this as an opportunity.

Deng Bo also sensed that something was wrong, and his whole person trembled into a leaf in the autumn wind, and it took him a while to muster up his courage and say, "Master, the little people are really wronged. This land is obviously mine, but it was sold to the Xu family at a low price by my uncompetitive brother, which is clearly the land they robbed my Deng family! ”

Of course, the surrounding people can understand how wronged he is, but at the same time, they also know that it is really difficult for the magistrate to speak for him this time. Who told them to have an omission, and this omission was also held in the hands of the Xu family.

The county commander's face had become extremely ugly, of course he understood how important this case was to him, but in this case, could he still help Deng Bo regain the land? If there is a different defendant, as a county parent, he can naturally use official authority to subdue the other party, even if you are reasonable, it is useless. But the other party is the Xu family, so they can only use reason and law to contend with it.

The thoughts in his heart kept turning, and the county order's eyes only swept over the contract note, hoping to see some other clues. Suddenly, his gaze froze, and he had found a loophole......

The people outside the hall also looked at the county, and many people felt that today's lawsuit was going to turn into a farce after all, and the county would also end in a bleak end, which made them disappointed, but also a little more afraid of the Xu family, knowing that the real decision in Huating County was the Xu family, even if it was reasonable, no one was their opponent.

Just when many people sighed, there were dozens of men in red robes at the entrance of the yamen, just looking at their dress, you can come out that these people's identities are not ordinary, and some of them have seen a look of fear and retreat on their faces, they recognized each other's identities, that is Jinyiwei!

After Yang Zhen and his brothers entered Huating County, they went straight to the county yamen along the road that was not too wide. Since the origin of this incident is on the county magistrate of Huating County, he naturally wanted to meet with him this time and discuss some more things.

In Yang Zhen's mind, as the parent official here, the other party must have an extremely detailed understanding of the local situation, especially the problems of the Xu family, and maybe he also has a lot of evidence that the Xu family is a traitor. Then he may be able to collect more evidence through him, so as to completely convict the Xu family.

It's just that he didn't expect that after approaching the county yamen, the number of people in this small city gradually increased, and when he came to the county yamen, he saw hundreds of men, women, and children surrounding the county yamen, talking loudly and quietly, looking excited.

"It seems that something else is going on here today...... Yang Zhen thought about it, turned over and dismounted, and ordered Cai Yingyang and Hu Ge to follow him in, while the others stayed outside and waited.

Although the small county government has been blocked by the people watching the excitement, Yang Zhen's appearance still makes people dare not take it lightly. As soon as they saw them coming, the people subconsciously gave way and let them pass calmly, and went straight to the front of the lobby.

"Xu Chang, you said that your Xu family was not at fault for buying the Deng family's land, but this official doesn't think so! It is clearly written on this note, seventy-three acres of fertile land, and your Xu family only spent no more than a hundred taels of silver to buy it. Let's ask, is there such a cheap sale of land in this world? You are clearly bullying people and buying them at a low price! Zhixian's deep voice came out of the hall, and when he heard this, Yang Zhen's eyes suddenly lit up: "Xu family? It's better to come early than to be lucky! ”
