Chapter 358: This official wants to break the old rules!

In recent years, the names of streets and alleys in various prefectures and counties have not been very distinctive. Almost every county has a county front street and a county back street, as the name suggests, it refers to the two avenues before and after the county office. At this moment, the county front street in front of the Ya in Hanyang County is full of idlers watching the excitement on the inside and outer three floors. After all, despite the fact that Hanyang's status as the commercial capital was ceded to the emerging town of Hankou due to the diversion of the Han River, the city was still quite prosperous, and the surplus population was not small, if far inferior to that of the southeast.

And Shao Fang actually blended in the crowd like this, instead of sitting in the teahouse by himself like many idlers with a little status, and sent his entourage to find out the news. He restrained his shelf and aggressive eyes, just like an ordinary idler, talking to the east and talking to the west, like those merchants in the southeast. And with those idlers helping him to inquire about the door in front of the county yamen, the news in it finally reached a little bit. It is said that the Hanyang County Commander Zhou Xianzun was neither humble nor arrogant, and he fought with Lei Jigu in the ring, showing extraordinary tenacity.

You must know that under the name of Lei Jigu's murderer, even Xu Xuemo, who was on the patrol before, was stunned when he saw this guy, and a county order had such a backbone!

"Those people from the Dongting Shang Gang are here, and the leader is the big dragon leader Tan Ye!"

"It's not just Tan Ye, but Zhao Ye, who used to be the leader, is also there."

"There is also He Daguan of Baoqing Mansion, who is said to be unparalleled in righteousness!"

And Wang Fulin, who was mixed in the Dongting merchant gang, only acted like a nephew who was brought to him by these people, and he was not at all inconspicuous. He had already changed into a completely different costume from when he met Shao Fang before, and he used the people around him to block his vision. You can take a good time to look at the idlers on both sides of the roadside. Finally. He found Shao Fang, who had no time and could not think of changing clothes. So he reminded Tan Mingfang in front of him and He Yun beside him. Hearing that Shao Fang was indeed here, both of them glanced in the direction he said with swift and incoherent eyes, and soon found someone according to his description.

Shao Fang's big eyes and black clothes are really easy to recognize! Moreover, if you look closely, you can see that this person is very different from the idlers who are watching the excitement.

They already believed six points, and now both of them believed eight points, even if they hadn't seen it before. But such a celebrity goes back to someone and verifies it. So, when the intention was expressed to the door of the county government, and after the people went in to report, Tan Mingfang and He Yun respectively explained to the merchants of Dongting Merchant Gang and Baoqing Mansion how to deal with it after going to the court for a while.

Of course, both of them can't help but whisper to their own henchmen that the key person who helped Shoufu Gao Gong to regain his appearance is now outside the county office, and the vigilance of several people has been adjusted to the highest. As for Wang Fulin, who was mixed in the crowd and was directly introduced by Tan Mingfang as his nephew, he had nothing to do at this time, so he simply listened to the people around him to relieve his boredom.

as the party being accused. The people of the Dongting Merchant Gang got a reply from Menzi in a moment, and asked them to go up to the lobby to see the county honor. Time. Tan Mingfang took the lead, He Yun followed, and a large number of more than a dozen people marched towards the court. Although the matter came suddenly, and they had already fallen behind, even if most people didn't know that Wang Fulin personally came to make peace, but only one of the Hui Gang, the second master Bao, came forward to lead the complaint this time, Tan Mingfang and He Yun were clearly confident, and such emotions certainly infected them.

In the public court, the second master Bao had just watched a good show of Zhou County's tongue fighting the thunder plague god, and he only felt thrilling, and secretly smacked his tongue at Zhou County's Zun to play a twelve-point skill, and the famous Lei Ji Gu battle became a draw. Therefore, when he saw the Dongting Merchant Gang coming to the court, he saw Wang Fulin mixed in at a glance, and when he saw that he was winking at himself, he only felt surprised and happy.

Wang Fulin is so capable, can he do such a difficult thing?

Although the Dongting Merchant Gang is not as wealthy as the Hui Merchants, they are only small rich people who have a lot of money in their pockets these years, and their net worth is as little as tens of thousands of taels and as much as one or two hundred thousand taels, but at this moment in the public court, under the noses of the Thunder Plague God, they have no merit and have to bend their knees to salute. As for Wang Fulin, dressed in ordinary clothes, he had already seen the opportunity to make a fuss when he went to court, and mixed in with the Hui gang as the plaintiff, so as not to stand out from the crowd when everyone else knelt on the ground -- and he had to explain to people that he had a reputation for showing off his talents, and he didn't need to kneel when he went to court.

By the way, he also wants to communicate with Second Master Bao.

Zhou Xianzun had just fought a big battle with Lei Jigu, and of course he also discovered Wang Fulin's return. At this moment, seeing that the people of the Dongting Merchant Gang had already knelt on the ground, he breathed a sigh of relief, and his back straightened for a while, secretly thinking that you had caused so much trouble to this county by fighting life and death, and finally knew how to be soft! Without waiting for Lei Jigu to speak first, he smashed the startled wood with his life, and said in a deep voice: "Tan Mingfang, Bao Zhuhuang and others sue Er and other Dongting merchants to provoke wantonly, forcing them to take two miles in the Xin'an Wharf as a bet, and the two sides disregard the laws and regulations of the imperial court to fight, so there are many dead and injured, is there a matter of this?" ”

"Returning to the county, the little people are wronged!" Tan Mingfang was talking in his mouth, but his eyes were always staring at Lei Jigu. Seeing that the plague god opened his mouth as if to ask questions, he hurriedly rushed in front of this person and said loudly, "The Dongting Shang Gang and the Hui Gang have always been at odds because of the dock, and they have had a few small fights and disputes in the past, but they were all up to the point and did not hurt the harmony, but this time someone fanned the flames and asked me to wait for the Hui Gang to make an appointment, which caused such a consequence." In this armed fight, Xiaomin and others were willing to admit the fight and accept punishment, but they implored the county to be aware of everything and severely punish the villain who instigated! ”

Lei Jigu originally thought that in this incident, the two merchant gangs involved would definitely cover it to the death, and Zhou Xianzun, the Hanyang County Commander, would also cover it for the sake of political achievements, but now it is the second master of the Hui Gang who personally led the complaint, Zhou Xianzun immediately received the complaint, and also severely accused him of exceeding his authority and meddling in the prison that had not yet been tried, but the Dongting Merchant Gang actually admitted it, but said that it was instigated. Rao is the official he once served as the official in charge of the criminal name of a government, and he has handled countless cases, and he has also seen many strange cases in the appointment of the imperial historian, and he still can't help but hesitate for a moment at this moment.

And this moment of kung fu was immediately firmly grasped by Zhou Xianzun. He slapped the startled wood again, and shouted in a deep voice: "Tan Mingfang, since you say so, is there any evidence?" ”

"Back to the county honor, the villain has already brought this person!" Tan Mingfang's words were shocking, and then he and He Yun got up directly, and actually went to the back to pick up a short and fat businessman, and said bluntly, "When I held a meeting as usual to discuss the matter of the dock berthing that day, it was this guy who suggested that while the governor of Huguang Wang Buyuan had just taken office, the Emblem Gang was caught off guard and gave them a dismount, saying that they were going to make up hundreds of people and let Xin'an Wharf cede Erli to our Dongting Merchant Gang!" ”

The stocky merchant was completely stunned at this moment. He only thought that he was following the other people to the county office to respond to the lawsuit today, but who would have thought that what Tan Mingfang said was not the same thing at all, and in the blink of an eye, he was thrown out. His scalp was numb, and he wanted to deny it vigorously, but who would have thought that other people who called him brothers and sisters in the past were actually you and me, and even someone repeated his original words that day. He only felt that his head was blank, and the next moment, he only heard an angry shout from the hall.

"This county is still thinking, although there are often frictions between many merchant gangs in Hankou Town, it is rare to hear of such vicious fights, but it turns out that you have evil intentions! Come on, first scold this fang for ten small boards and then question! ”

Zhou Xianzun suddenly threw down a hall stick, and the soap class soap on the standing hall moved in response, and immediately dragged the short and fat man out and pushed him to the ground, and picked off his pants and pulled the board down.

After only two hits, the short and fat businessman who suffered so much for the first time in his life immediately came to his senses, and hurriedly begged for mercy loudly: "The county respects his life, the small one is also deceived by others, and the small one is really deceived by others!" Ouch! Don't fight, don't fight! ”

Even though the small bamboo strips that fell from his buttocks instead of the big sticks of the cane, the short and fat merchant still wept and grabbed the ground. However, the soap of the soap class has always been the most hard-hearted person in the world, and the cousin didn't speak, who cares what this person shouts. When the ten boards were finished, they randomly pulled up the pants of the unfortunate bastard crisscrossed with a few blood marks on his buttocks, left the man on his knees, and then stepped aside to continue his solemn standing. At this moment, Zhou Xianzun asked sharply again, where did the short and fat businessman dare to hide a word.

"County Zun, the little one was also deceived by someone, there was someone who came to see him, saying that he could take away the dock of the Hui Gang and give them a powerful look, and the little one put forward this suggestion, and everyone agreed at that time!" The short and fat merchant glanced at his former companion angrily and hatefully, and saw that everyone was glaring at him, among them, Tan Mingfang and He Yun's eyes seemed to be about to kill, he couldn't help but shrink his neck, and said pitifully, "The little one is just confused by people's words for a while, that guy is a famous broker in Hankou Town, surnamed Feng, ranked sixth, and everyone calls him Feng Lao Liu......"

"Where is the head of the fast class Qin, immediately take someone to Hankou Town to arrest this person, if not, don't blame the county for strictly chasing after him!"

Seeing that Zhou County Zun was standing up and letting the torture room issue the paperwork at three moments, Lei Jigu finally tasted it, he frowned, and asked lightly: "Zhou County ordered not to punish this murder case, but to track down the instigator first?" ”

"Of course!" Zhou Xianzun raised his head awe-inspiringly, and said word by word, "Just as it is better to teach people to fish than to teach people to fish, Hankou Town is outside Hanyang City, and sporadic arms fights often occur. Since this county has found out that some people are taking advantage of the contradictions between the two major business gangs to plot misdeeds, it should be fair and honest, so that those who sow discord have nowhere to live, and break these stereotypes of relying on fists and knives to determine victory or defeat! ”

Wang Fulin, who was mixed with the bitter master, clearly saw that when Zhou Xianzun said this, the face of the inspector was clearly a little appreciative.

Lei Jigu should be a righteous gentleman and a capable official who is fair in adjudicating cases, but since Shao Fang is involved, he can only help this snobbish Zhou Xianzun to brush his reputation from Lei Qingtian, life is so helpless! (To be continued......)
