Chapter 16 Set an example

As soon as Wu Kui went to the court, he saw Wu Jing kneeling on the side, saw Yue Su pointing at him, and said with a smile: "Of course I know, this is Wu Jing, the big butler in my house, I don't know why he angered the adults and wanted to kneel in the lobby." ”

"You're asking knowingly." Yue Su shouted loudly: "He came to the county government to bribe the official on your order, and the bribe of three hundred taels of silver is ironclad evidence, what else do you have to say?" Isn't it a crime to bribe an official of the imperial court, and don't kneel down for this official! ”

As soon as he said this, the servants on both sides immediately shouted loudly: "Wei...... Wu ......"

"Hahahaha......" Unexpectedly, Wu Kui laughed loudly, "My lord, how can you listen to one side, Wu Jing is the housekeeper of my house, but I didn't let him bribe the master, please ask the master to investigate this matter and return my innocence." ”

"The official will see for himself." Yue Su shouted loudly: "Wu Jing, who are you appointed to come to bribe this official, and you still don't give me the truth." ”

"Returning to your lordship...... Wu Jing raised his head and said: "Caomin was not entrusted, but he had a very good relationship with his brother Wu Sheng, and he knew that he was beating people, and he was afraid that he would suffer a lawsuit, so he bribed the adult in private, and wanted the adult to show mercy outside the law, so he spared him this time." I didn't expect the adults to be selfless, and the grass people now regret it, and I hope that the adults will be gracious and forgive the little people, and they will change their ways in the future. This matter is the idea of the grass people alone, and it has nothing to do with others, please know it. ”

"Really?" Yue Su turned his head to look at Xia Kuan and sneered: "When you and Sun Dacheng came to see this official together, this official remembers that you said that this silver is the filial piety of the master of the Martial Mansion, yes or no?" ”

Xia Kuan hurriedly got up and said: "I also heard what Sun Dacheng said, this guy is extremely evil, and there is no truth on his lips, and the lower officials were deceived by him, please be enlightened, don't believe this guy's nonsense." ”

"I see." Yue Su looked at Wu Jing again and said, "Bribing the imperial court officials is a serious crime, at your age, if you admit it, it is estimated that you will have to eat prison for the rest of your life, you have to think clearly." If it is truthfully recruited, the official can still give grace outside the law, so you can weigh it. ”

"Returning to my lord, this matter is indeed done by the grass people alone, and no one has instructed it, and now, it is too late to regret it, and I hope that the lord will be light." After Wu Jing finished speaking, he kowtowed vigorously.

"Well, he's still a loyal minion." Yue Su saw that Wu Jing was willing to bear the responsibility alone, but he couldn't control Wu Kui's mouth, so he gritted his teeth and said loudly: "Then the official will be sentenced, and the most popular Wu Jing is suspected of bribing the imperial court officials, and he is convicted." Come on, let him sign and draw! ”

Yue Su is also used to being a policeman, and he has also been to the court, but this time it is good, and he used the tone of a modern judge when the verdict was announced. Fortunately, I still remember that in costume dramas on TV, the final cases are all signed and charged.

The clerk's office had been recording on the side, and when he heard the adult's words, he hurriedly brought the written confession to Wu Jing and asked him to sign it.

After that, Yue Su said loudly: "Wu Jing bribed the imperial court officials and sentenced him to eighty canes and seven years in prison. Execute now! With that, he dropped the fire stick.

There are several kinds of fire sticks in the county government, some are to take people, some are to play boards, Yue Su just after Tong Zhou left, carefully studied the sticks on the table, and then I knew that the original arrest of people was also to give the fire sign to the errand officer. However, at that time, the smell of gunpowder was strong, and although he didn't give Tong Zhou a sign, he was also ordered to go immediately. Moreover, when he first entered the lobby to beat the concubine of the martial family, if he knew the rules and threw down the fire stick, at that time, I am afraid that no one would dare not do it.

"Yes!" When the messenger saw Yue Su drop the eight fire sticks, he didn't dare to slack off at the moment, pressed Wu Jing to the ground, picked up the board, and "crackled" the ground.

The Wu family has always been a high-ranking existence in Yangshuo County, not only rich, but Sun Dacheng, the son-in-law of the Wu master, is also the chief catcher in the county, so no one dares to offend the Wu family, usually only the Wu family bullies people, and I haven't heard that the people of the Wu family are bullied.

Now that he is beating the board of the chief housekeeper of the martial arts mansion in the hall, he was still apprehensive at first, but after a few boards, he saw that none of the martial arts family dared to speak up, and his courage was also a lot stronger. In my heart, it turns out that the samurai family is nothing more than this, at best, it is just a paper tiger, and when I see the county lord, I am not honest.

The next board is really a lot, and it hurts so much that Wu Jing screams, and several errand servants are getting bigger and harder. Besides, the eldest lord is watching from above, look at the posture, it can't be said that there is no blood.

Eighty boards, no matter who is on it, if you don't die, you have to go to half a life, and you can't get out of bed for a month. Wu Jing relied on being a practitioner, and when he came down from the eighty boards, he was already peeling his flesh and flesh, and he didn't even have the strength to shout.

"Lord Qiqi, the execution is complete."

Yue Su said: "Put me in prison." After speaking, a pair of eyes stared at the people of the Wu Mansion, Wu Kui and Wu Sheng both gritted their teeth, and the four evil slaves were so frightened that their legs trembled, and they had always been majestic butlers in their hearts, and they would be beaten like this.

Carrying Wu Jing away, Yue Su no longer looked at Wu Kui and the others, but shouted: "Carry the plaintiff Wang San to the court." ”

As early as when Wu Kui and the others went to the court, Yue Su had already asked Jin Chan to take the servants to carry Wang San, and after waiting in the warm pavilion, he heard the sound of playing the board in front of him, Jin Chan was excited, and Wang San didn't expect that this new old man would dare to beat the people of the martial arts, and he would beat him so hard. It seems that there is really an official who is in charge of the people.

Carrying Wang San to the lobby, Yue Su asked loudly: "Wang San, you said that your legs were broken, but do you remember the face of the person who beat you." ”

"Xiaomin remembers." Wang San said loudly.

"Then you recognize, the person who beat you can be in the hall."

When Wang San was carried up from behind, he had already seen Wu Sheng and the four evil slaves, who were the same people who had injured him last night. He immediately replied, "Lord Hui, they are all in the hall, and they are the leaders of the ...... he leads," he said, pointing to Wu Sheng, and then said, "The hands of the four people in the back." ”

"Good." Yue Su slapped the stunned wood and said loudly: "Wu Sheng, you and others maliciously hurt people, causing Wang San's legs to break, what do you have to say, don't kneel down for this official!" ”

"Wei ...... Wu ......" "Kneel down ......" The officers were now in good spirits and shouted loudly one by one

Wu Sheng also knows that if you don't kneel at this time, it will be humiliating yourself, and someone will come up immediately to press you to the ground, so it's better to be conscious. Kneeling in the lobby at the moment, the four evil slaves saw that the two butlers were kneeling, how dare they still stand, and knelt down together tremblingly. "The grass people are guilty."

"Wu Sheng, this official will ask you again, what grudge do you have with Wang San, why do you have such a heavy hand, and whether there is someone behind it, and you still don't want me to recruit from the truth."

"This ......" Wu Sheng hesitated for a moment and said: "Cao Minben and Wang San have no grievances, just because yesterday the sixth lady of my family was humiliated in the court, all because of him, the villain was not angry in his heart, so he took the servants to beat Wang San, and there was no one behind him. Extrajudicial mercy can be lightly dealt with. ”

"It turns out that you beat Wang San because your sixth lady was humiliated in the lobby yesterday, and you also have a share of the official in the lobby yesterday, why don't you come to the county office to beat the official?" Yue Su slapped the startled wood and shouted.

"The grass people don't dare." Wu Sheng dared to raise his head. The four evil slaves didn't even dare to respond.

"What a dog who bullies the weak and is afraid of the hard, according to you, is it more ruthless, and others dare not come forward to report when they are wronged. If I don't do it again for you, everyone in the world will follow suit, and I will be in the hall...... Isn't the Ming Dynasty a wicked man running rampant, and the country will not be a country! Yue Su was so excited that he almost came to a dignified China again, and he was still changing his mouth quickly.

Yue Su followed and said: "You four evil slaves, who is the first to beat Wang San, report my name." ”

The four subordinates looked at each other, and they knew in their hearts that the first one to do it was afraid that the responsibility would be heavier, and who would dare to admit it. just trembling and kneeling on the ground, no one dared to respond.

Seeing that they didn't say anything, Yue Su didn't ask anymore, and said loudly: "Since no one admits it, the four of them are all the first accomplices. Wu Sheng took revenge for personal gain, instructed the thugs to injure Wang San, causing him to be disabled, and confessed in court. ”

The clerk made a list of confessions, walked over and asked the five people to sign and draw the charge, Wu Sheng was just right, the four evil servants were all unjust, they were just acting on orders, and they were even implicated, and I don't know what kind of criminal law the eldest master would make. However, Wu Sheng's residual power is still there, and no one dares to say more, after all, the old man Wu Kui is still alive, don't lose your surname because of too much mouth.

After the painting was finished, Yue Su pronounced the verdict in court, "Wu Sheng instructed the four evil slaves to seriously injure Wang San, causing him to be disabled, the circumstances are serious, and there is no way to set an example if he is not severely punished." The main offender, Wu Sheng, was sentenced to six hundred years in prison for three years, and compensated Wang San for twenty taels of medical expenses; None of the four accomplices confessed to being the first accomplice, so they were all first accomplices and were sentenced to 40 canes and one year's imprisonment. With that, he dropped the fire stick.

A group of officers stretched their arms and sleeves, held down the five people, and started to fight in the hall, and the sound of "ping pong" was endless. Wu Kui saw his family being beaten, how ugly and ugly his old face was, such a big humiliation, he was the first time he had encountered it, what is the difference between such humiliation and hitting his face.

There were a lot of people gathered outside the lobby to watch the excitement, and when they saw that the two butlers of the Wufu were beaten together with the evil slaves, they squeaked in pain, and they were sentenced to prison, which was really happy, and everyone applauded.

After a group of prisoners were imprisoned, Yue Su retreated, and Wu Kui left angrily. When they came, they were six people, and when they left, they became one bare, so how could they not make people angry.

Yue Su came to the back office, found Tong Zhou, and called all the people in the yamen, not to mention the main book, what warden, the male and female prison heads, all called over, and they could be regarded as meeting each other, getting to know each other, and admonishing each other one by one. In the end, Yue Su said: "Tong catcher, I have two followers here, one is called Jin Chan, the other is called Tie Qiu, and their skills are also good. ”

The position of head catcher is a first-class important position in the county government, no matter who comes to be the county commander, he will send a confidant to take over, this kind of thing, everyone knows it in their hearts. When Yue Su said this, he also gave Tong Zhou some face, and Tong Zhou immediately replied: "The subordinates have no opinions, it is all up to the orders of the adults." ”

"Okay, it's decided, the two of them will hand over to you, and you take them to get acquainted with the brothers."
