After finishing the meal, thinking that he was going to the county government to be tried, Xie Xiuqi beckoned An Erhu to go out.

Xiao Lori and Gu Li were sent to the gate of the courtyard, and Xiao Lori was even more reluctant to leave before the two brothers came, and I don't know if she was really reluctant, or it was a pity that the two of them, especially Xie Xiuqi, left, and she didn't have this good object that could be planted on his head with almost anything.

When she waved her hand in parting, Xiao Lori reluctantly looked at the figures of the two turning around, and suddenly said: "Brother Xiuqi, I will also be Cinderella when I grow up, and then marry you, okay?" ”

It's silent.

Xie Xiuqi was stunned and his mind was already racing - I'll go, my reputation as a good man has already spread far and wide, they don't really think that I was kidnapping an ignorant young girl just now, right......

A scene suddenly appeared in his heart: when the two tigers Gu Li and An Qian were busy, but the old patriarch Gu had not arrived, he smiled obscenely and used a lollipop to trick the little girl into watching the goldfish......

"That's not the case, I just told her about a few princes and princesses Cinderella......"

Xie Xiuqi hurriedly explained, but he wanted to speak again and stopped.

Ancient people knew a fart prince princess Cinderella? After this time, is it full of mouths and can't tell clearly?

He grumbled inwardly.

Sure enough, I saw that An Qian had already looked at her young master with strange eyes, the little girl bit her lip, her face was as white as jade, she didn't know what she was thinking, and her expression was already resentful.

Erhu's expression was extremely complicated, as if he wanted to say something, but he smiled bitterly and sighed.

Old Patriarch Gu, who had been smiling on the side, smiled even brighter.

Even Gu Li's family gradually became full of understanding, and saw that she hesitated for a while, as if she had made up her mind, but she chuckled lightly, and said in a low voice to Xie Xiuqi, who was stammering: "Young master...... You are so good to her and she likes you too. When she grows up, she should serve you as a concubine......"

"It's just...... The third son is still young, and he has not yet reached the age of marriage stipulated by the ancestral constitution......"

She wanted to speak, but she stopped.

"I'm not...... I have already changed my mind, how can I ......" Xie Xiuqi was so anxious that his face was red.

The old patriarch on the side also spoke with a smile: "Why should the third prince be like this, it is not overkill for the prodigal son to turn back." Young ** Mu Ai, this nature also. Although San'er is from a humble background, she is also a daughter of a good family, isn't it thousands of times better than her Qinglou and vulgarity? The second tiger is the person close to the third son, and it is a happy event to be close to each other. ”

The old man seemed to be happy to see this happen, and smiled.

Xie Xiuqi's heart was already full of bitterness - please don't mention Qinglou...... I really want to be a eunuch, sincerely......

For a while, the young man was so anxious that he just wanted to go to the side of the street, find a small advertising pole attached to the treatment of male inadequacy and cry bitterly: Why, why is my illness finally incurable!

In the midst of sadness, Erhu also seemed to be happy and sad on the side, and after being silent for a long time, he seemed to have made up his mind, but he made up for it again: "What the old patriarch said is extremely true, but San'er is still young now...... Young master, don't worry, how long will it take a few years? Anyway, sooner or later......"

Erhu asked, Xie Xiuqi, who wanted to spread all over the world, had an extremely wonderful face.

I'm not in a hurry at all...... No! I don't have that idea at all!

He raised his head to the sky, trying his best to hold back the tears of grievance that burst out of his eyes.

I don't mean that! It's not that I can actually attack a ten-year-old girl, especially such a little devil who has tricked me into a natural situation, whether intentionally or unintentionally--a fowl shou who can attack such a little devil! I'm a decent gentleman like Megumi Yanagishita! Our family is a eunuch......

He roared silently in his heart, his expression of grief and indignation already showing a strong indictment of the ruthless fate of antiquity by a postmodernist emotion.

Immediately, for the first time, he had doubts about what he was planning -- if a modern young man who was influenced by the atmosphere of the 21st century came to ancient times, could he really pretend to be an old-fashioned gentleman who abides by etiquette and law more than the ancients in every word and deed?

Obviously, everything was planned last night, but when I got up at noon, I somehow ** a few times - this is naturally commonplace in the 21st century, and others will not think about it, but this is ancient times......

And now thanks to the little devil San'er, the eunuch has not been made, but the yin stick has been done in a decent way, and it has become more distinctive...... Is this the rhythm of being hacked to death by the whole world?

My sister hadn't woken up yet, but when she woke up, what if she heard these things again...... How else could she think I didn't mean to do that night?

For a while, Xie Xiuqi only felt a splitting headache.

He looked at the innocent little Lori, and then at the people with different faces, but gradually became more or less happy to see it, and finally turned to Erhu with tears in his eyes.

Hello Erhu, Erhu your sister!

He greeted with great sincerity in his heart.

～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～

Zhang Zhen sat majestically in the lobby, looking at the crowd under the hall, his eyes were full of ease and smiles.

The county order was suspended, and the county had to avoid suspicion, but now Xie Xiuqi's arson case had to be tried by Zhang Zhen, the three masters. Although this case is not the best case in the past 100 years, it is not much different.

The facts of the case are clear, the people's will is turned against earlier, and everything is just a procedure.

But this case will definitely spread all over the empire, and it will reach the heavens, although I, Zhang Zhen, am a small character, but I have also personally tried this case, maybe it will leave a little impression in the hearts of adults and even His Majesty, right?

Zhang Zhen thought about it, and the smile on his face was even worse.

Immediately, he glanced at the old and the young in the auditorium, and his brows furrowed slightly.

This Yang Zheng envoy and Pan deputy envoy...... Why did you come today?

The Changzhi rebellion case has been completed, and it is said that it is time for the Supervision Department to escort the prisoners back to Fucheng. However, Yang Zhengzhi and Deputy Envoy Pan somehow returned to Fucheng before them, but they themselves wandered around Changzhi all day, but they toured the scenery of Changzhi.

Today, he even came uninvited, saying that he wanted to observe the trial.

Zhang Zhen is not afraid of shadows, but the two largest hanging swords in the province are dangling in the sky over Changzhi all day long, even if there is no loss in his heart, it also makes Zhang Zhen have some speculation.

Seeing that several legal officials around him had finished discussing and had already submitted the results of the examination, Zhang Zhen temporarily restrained his thoughts, and saw that the corners of his mouth showed a smile again.

He coughed lightly and patted the startled wood gently.

"Wei ...... Wu ......"

The low cheers of the officials suddenly rang out, and the whole court gradually fell silent, and the people looked at the hall with considerable anticipation—the time had come for the verdict to be pronounced at this point in the trial.

Zhang Zhen smiled and glanced at Xie Xiuqi, who was standing peacefully in the hall, and then looked at the supervision envoys on the side and nodded.

I saw him looking down at the results of the examination in his hand and read: "Inheriting the constitutional criminal law of the ancestors, after the collegial discussion of the legal room, Zhang Zhen, the magistrate of the county governor, sentenced Xie Xiuqi to the arson case as follows: The arson case is undoubtedly conclusive, causing minor injuries to five people, serious injuries to two people, and nearly 1,000 gold to other people's property. According to the law, it should flow three thousand miles, and the thorn should be filled with troops in Xinlu. ”

There was a buzz in the crowd, Zhang Zhen smiled, but he read again: "However, Xie Xiuqi's arson is a conspiracy of the Fang family, and he secretly bought Cai Wu and instigated it; The fire scene was even more fang's hands and feet, which greatly aggravated the damage. ”

"His sin is unforgivable, but his circumstances are quite excusable. Subsequently, the offender even exposed the great rebellion of the Fang family, and helped the Supervision Department to detect the reverse case in one fell swoop, and made meritorious contributions to the crime. He also remembered that the offender voluntarily surrendered, and his heart of remorse was fisted, and he had already paid all the arson damages. ”

"Therefore, according to Article 7, Section 8 of the Imperial Ancestral Constitutional Criminal Law, the law of rewards and punishments for criminals who have committed crimes and made meritorious contributions. In the end, Xie Xiuqi was sentenced to a non-refundable fine to atone for the loss of arson. After that, the merits and crimes are offset, and the rewards and punishments are exempted. If you commit another offense, you will not be spared! ”

"That's the verdict! Changzhi County Government, 1633 A.D., the third year of the Imperial Jingyou, October 17. ”

The crowd was louder, but it was mostly satisfied, and there were a few cheers from time to time.

Zhang Zhen smiled, cleared his throat again, and recited the final procedure stipulated by the ancestral constitution according to the script: "If all the fathers and elders here have objections, they can raise them in court, and if the number of objections exceeds eighty, the case will be retried and resentenced." If the retrial and re-judgment are still not satisfied, the fathers and elders can also appeal to the provincial government. ”

"If there is no objection, the case will be closed without change."

After speaking, he was already looking at the crowd with a smile, his eyes were instigating, and he was full of inquiry.

"I have no objections."

"Your Excellency is wise."

The crowd immediately screamed, in fact, the case was indeed judged to the extreme, and there was no controversy, so that people were convinced, not to worry about how many opponents would appear.

Zhang Zhen was also full of satisfaction, and saw him close the case file and smile happily: "The arsonist Xie Xiuqi has offset his merits and will be released on the spot." The instigated offenders Fang Hua, Fang Yuanbo, Cai Wu and others are not within the responsibility of the county because they are involved in the rebellion case, and will be tried by the Wangbei Supervision Division. The case was thus closed. Exit—"

He shouted, in a long voice.

As the "mighty" voices of the officials sounded again, the crowd nodded with satisfaction and gradually dispersed in the discussion.

Seeing that the case was finally heard, Yang Yizhang, who was already bored and yawned, was already a little excited: "What else is there to look at in this case?" I said Uncle Pan, you said that I still have something to do, and I am not in a hurry to go back to Fucheng, is it just to observe this case? ”

He looked at Pan Xiang sitting beside him and asked suspiciously.

"Definitely."

Pan Xiang only looked at Xie Xiuqi, and after a long time, he smiled mysteriously.
