Chapter 44 Sue the Officials with the People

The contradiction between Zhao Honglang and Pang Xiude has become white-hot, but in the current battles, Zhao Honglang was defeated, and the important officials in several county offices gradually disliked him as a county order, and turned to Pang Xiude's banner and became his pawn, but on the surface, Zhao Honglang is still the highest governor of the Cangsong County government.

"County Lieutenant Pang is so interested, he ran to arrest people when he was on duty, did he get the consent of the officer?" Zhao Honglang couldn't help but say in an aggravated tone.

In the face of Zhao Honglang's accusation, Pang Xiude pouted disdainfully, but still bent down and replied, "Lord Zhao doesn't know, this case is like fire and water, and it can't be delayed, after the subordinate heard the report of his subordinates, he was worried that the thief would escape, so he hurriedly led people to catch the thief, and in a hurry, he forgot to report to the adult, and hoped that the adult would atone for his sins!" ”

When Li Mingyuan, who was standing on the side, heard this, he had already guessed in his heart that Zhao Honglang had smashed his fist on the cotton in this round of confrontation. Pang Xiude insisted that the case was very important, and it was too late to tell him, which was also a common situation, if Zhao Honglang continued to pursue it, it would make people feel unkind, and the matter would be untenable.

Sure enough, hearing Pang Xiude's defense, Zhao Honglang's face changed three times, and finally said in a businesslike tone, "Since this is the case, don't take it as an example!" In this round of confrontation, Pang Xiude won again.

"Where are the scholars who hurt others and take away money? I want to see who is so bold! Zhao Honglang slapped Tang Mu, obviously wanting to spill his anger on Li Mingyuan.

"Student Li Mingyuan pays a visit to his teacher!" Li Mingyuan didn't call the county order, and directly called his teacher, but this was not a random call, because Zhao Honglang was the chief examiner in the first exam of his talent show, and without him, Li Mingyuan would not have been able to take the test for the fame of this showman.

Zhao Honglang, who had been black-faced, saw Li Mingyuan and showed a smile on his face.

"Mingyuan is exempt, why do you remember me today, it's okay, let's have dinner here later, and when I finish trying this case, let's have a good chat!" Zhao Honglang touched his beard and said with a smile.

Boss Wang and the others, who were kneeling on the ground, couldn't help but twitch, they didn't expect that this Li Mingyuan still had something to do with Zhao Honglang, so I was afraid that this matter would not be solved so easily.

Pang Xiude saw that Li Mingyuan actually knew Zhao Honglang, and it seemed that the relationship was not bad, but he had to send it when he was ready to fly, anyway, he and Zhao Honglang were already on the same page, and there was nothing to be afraid of.

"My lord, he is a scholar who hurts people and robs money!" Pang Xiude pointed at Li Mingyuan and said indignantly.

"What?" Zhao Honglang couldn't help but be surprised.

"Yes, Master Teacher, the student is the scholar referred to by these duplicitous people!" Li Mingyuan was dressed and said calmly.

Zhao Honglang was a little confused, what kind of person is this Li Mingyuan, he is so talented and famous, and he also received an errand as a captain of the eight-rank Xuanjie in the Tiger Ben Army, and he is also a confidant of the Marquis of Yumen, saying that he hurts people and takes money, which is completely impossible, and he doesn't need to do it.

"Mingyuan, you are an official of the imperial court, and your official is also trustworthy, is there any grievance in this, you take your time, and the official will definitely make the decision for you!" Zhao Honglang patted the wood, and the duke was selfless. Li Mingyuan is his student, and he has a good relationship with him, and he is still a person appreciated by the Hou Ye, as for Pang Xiude, they are their opponents. So whether it is public or private, emotional or reasonable, he has to help Li Mingyuan today, at least he can't make Pang Xiude feel better.

Seeing Zhao Honglang's situation, Pang Xiude couldn't help but burst into flames, he knew that Lu Dao was like this, it was better to find a way to clean up this kid, why bother to come to the county government to walk, now it's okay, things are out of his control.

"Lord Qingtian, don't listen to slander, please ask Lord Qingtian to make decisions for the villain!" Zhao Liuzhi said that he had no way to retreat, so he knelt directly on the ground and wailed, forcing Zhao Honglang to interrogate Li Mingyuan.

Zhao Liu's trouble, the rest of the crowd responded freely, and the court cried for a while, and all kinds of tragic situations made Li Mingyuan feel ashamed, and he couldn't help but review whether he had really done something rebellious.

A few splashes cried for a while, which made Zhao Honglang also extremely upset, but the law does not blame the public, not to mention that many people are watching the excitement, so he has to pat the hall continuously, "Quiet, quiet, what grievances do you have, who is complaining, but there is a complaint, submit it to the official!" ”

If you want to fight a lawsuit these years, you can't do it without a complaint, but Pang Xiude is so cunning and cunning, although the time is urgent, but he has already been ready, and with a look, the free man submitted the complaint to Zhao Honglang.

Seeing Zhao Honglang's slightly frowning brows, as well as the sneers of Pang Xiude and the others, Li Mingyuan knew that it was time for him to make a move. "Master Teacher, may I ask what should be done according to the law?"

Zhao Honglang, who was originally reading the complaint, raised his head and looked at Li Mingyuan with some doubts, not knowing what he meant by this at this juncture.

"The reaction is so slow, no wonder it's still a seven-grade county order after being mixed up for so long!" Seeing Zhao Honglang's confused eyes, Li Mingyuan couldn't help but feel a burst of contempt in his heart, and then enlightened, "These scoundrels sue the officials with the people, if the master does not punish them severely according to the law, so that the people of the world will take it as a warning, won't the people of the world follow their example in the future and sue the officials with the people?" ”

Speaking of which, Zhao Honglang was a real fool if he didn't understand it anymore, and immediately said excitedly, "What Mingyuan reminded is that the official forgot about it, according to my Dahua law, sue the official with the people, and don't ask the reason, first hit the fifty boards!" ”

Seeing Zhao Honglang with an excited face, Li Mingyuan couldn't help but wonder if the county magistrate had forgotten about it, or if he hadn't remembered it at all. In fact, it's no wonder that Zhao Honglang still has a lot of protection for scholars, especially officials, and all kinds of preferential treatment also make ordinary people blush. Take Zhao Honglang as an example, after serving as a county magistrate for so many years, it is the first time that he has taken the case of suing an official with the people, and this official is still Li Mingyuan, a military attache with a lower status.

As soon as I heard that I was going to hit fifty boards, Zhao Liu and the other three immediately wilted, the power of the board in this year is very strong, don't say fifty boards, twenty boards can be beaten to open the flesh, don't want to recover without a good recuperation of the month, as for the fifty boards, it can completely kill people.

The three of them looked at Pang Xiude as if asking for help, and the only one who could save them at the moment was this county lieutenant.

Pang Xiude, who thinks that he has no last resort, is also remorseful at this time, he has calculated everything, forgetting that there is such a thing, and it is the law of the country to sue the official for fifty years, he can't argue with it, and the only thing that can make him make a fuss is Li Mingyuan's official body.
