When Li Wenxuan was arrested and brought to the county government court, Wang Dake and the other six people had already knelt on the ground and shouted injustice. When they looked at each other, they were full of hostility towards each other. was bitten into one ear by Li Wenxuan, and the servants of the Lin family who were injured, naturally they would not forget the "oops" sound and moaning in pain.

Soon, Liu Wenjing, who is the magistrate of Guixi County, walked out of the back hall without hurrying and walking out of the back hall. With soap-colored official boots under his feet, he was wearing a seven-grade Ming Dynasty official uniform, a black gauze hat, and he was in his early thirties, sitting under the plaque hanging in the mirror with a kind face. Liu Wenjing, who had slapped the shocking wood, shouted in a straight voice.

Immediately, the officials on the left and right sides of the hall touched the water and fire sticks in their hands to the ground one after another, and shouted the sound of martial arts in their mouths.

"Lord Qingtian, you have to uphold justice for the little ones. We are all good people under your rule. Lang Lang Qiankun, in broad daylight, it was this person who committed murder and hurt people to my Lin Mansion family. Wang Da could point his finger at Li Wenxuan, who was standing not far away, with an expression of being wronged, and hit him backwards first.

Li Wenxuan, who is famous for his talents, did not need to kneel, and bowed his hand and said: "The truth is definitely not as he said. Wang Da is the wicked man who sues first. If they hadn't deceived people too much, they would have taken the first step, and the students would not have hurt others. The reason for the whole thing is that their Lin family dislikes the poor and loves the rich, and forcibly forced the students to withdraw from the marriage. ”

"Lord Qingtian, don't listen to his nonsense. He was a man of bad character. Wang Dake, who reversed right and wrong, fabricated the cause and effect of the whole incident and said: "My sister has a marriage contract with him. When my lord heard that he had died suddenly, he sent me and others to offer his condolences. Unexpectedly, this Li Wenxuan Xiucai, who had read the books of sages, would actually amuse him by pretending to be dead. The villain only distinguished two sentences with him, but he was annoyed and angry, and hurt people. As soon as he finished speaking, the five accomplices kneeling next to him nodded their heads in agreement.

Li Wenxuan, who snorted coldly, saw that he not only made up a set of stories, but also faintly felt that they were prepared. In the current form, I am not afraid that they will talk nonsense, but I am extremely worried that Liu Wenjing has secretly collected the benefits of the Lin family. If the Lin family had really already opened this joint, he knew that it would be useless to say anything.

Li Wenxuan, who carefully observed Liu Wenjing, did not see many clues. Although he was not sure to confirm his guess, he also had to defend himself: "Your story is well told, but it's just a story." There are six of you, and I'm alone. ”

At this time, Liu Wenjing, who was sitting in the main seat of the public court, did not say a word at first, and quietly listened to the respective statements of the plaintiff and the defendant in the court. Since he had a preliminary judgment, he really couldn't believe that Li Wenxuan, who looked Sven and was not burly, and was a scholar, was able to defeat six with one and was not injured.

Liu Wenjing, who was sitting on the chair, probably found a breakthrough point in his heart after reading the situation on the table and listening to the stories of both parties, so he looked at Wang Dake with his eyes and asked calmly: "Is there any divorce?" ”

Wang Dake, whose eyes rolled, had already been prepared, and his expression did not show the slightest flustery, and he did not deny it: "Yes." However, the reason why my lord asked to withdraw from the marriage was not because he hated the poor and loved the rich. First, Li Wenxuan did misbehave. If the eldest lord doesn't believe what the villain says, the slaves and maids of his Li family can testify about it. The second is that Sun Zhenren of the Qing Palace on Longhu Mountain has calculated Li Wenxuan's fate. He asserted that Li Wenxuan was able to kill not only his parents, but also his wife and people with close relationships. Therefore, my lord repeatedly weighed the pros and cons, and made the difficult decision to withdraw from the marriage. ”

After listening to what he said, Li Wenxuan was 100% sure that he had come prepared. Their Lin family really took great pains to force themselves to withdraw from the marriage. He was wronged, although he was extremely angry in his heart, but he had been trying to keep calm. At the moment, you can't lose your cool because of this, otherwise you will really become yellow mud and fall into the crotch of your pants, and it's not or.

Since there are witnesses, Liu Wenjing naturally wants to call the witnesses to the front of the court for questioning. A seventeen or eighteen-year-old, average-looking woman and a man about thirty years old, with pockmarked faces, came to the hall and knelt down. Behind the two of them, a Taoist in his forties, wearing a Taoist robe, a pure yang scarf, a long beard, and a whisk in his hand, walked up slowly.

The Taoist who did not kneel stood proudly, and said in a loud voice: "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable." ”

Liu Wenjing, who stood up suddenly, showed a look of respect on his face, and further confirmed: "May I ask the Taoist chief to really cultivate in the Qing Palace on Longhu Mountain?" ”

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable." The Taoist with a calm expression on the surface, said with full pride in his tone: "It's true. Poor Dao is a disciple of Zhiyi Zhenren. ”

"Someone, hurry up and move a chair." Liu Wenjing, who walked down, came to his side and said in an apologetic tone: "Slack." ”

In a moment, a yacha moved a circle chair to the front of the hall, and the Taoist sat down generously without any humility. After seeing him sit down, Liu Wenjing returned to sit down, ready to continue the trial.

Li Wenxuan, who saw it in his eyes, could know from the memories that had been fused that this Dragon and Tiger Mountain was Zhang Daoling, that is, the place where Zhang Tianshi became an immortal. He is the founder of Taoism, so this Longhu Mountain naturally became the general court of Taoism in the world. There are 81 Taoist temples, 36 Taoist temples, and 9 Taoist palaces built on Longhu Mountain, and the Shangqing Palace where Zhang Tianshi once cultivated the Tao and became immortals is respected.

At present, Shao Yuanjie, the head of the Shangqing Palace, has been favored by Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi, and has been ordered to be a real person, not only ruling the three palaces of Jingshi Chaotian, Manifestation and Lingji, but also leading Taoism in the world. Shao Yuanjie, who was recognized by the supreme ruler, was thus given a purple jade belt and a gold, jade, silver, and ivory seal to represent his identity.

Since then, Shao Yuanjie has lived in Beijing for a long time and accompanied Emperor Jiajing. It is said that he can also pray for rain and snow. The Shangqing Palace naturally followed the rising tide, with a greater prestige and a superior status. The Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain not only have a super high status in Guixi County, but also have an unprecedented influence in Guangxin Mansion, even the entire Jiangxi Province, and even the whole country.

Looking at Li Wenxuan, a man and a woman kneeling on the ground, it was not difficult to identify that these two people were indeed their former slaves, so they suddenly realized that their situation was quite dangerous. Since they came here, they naturally won't speak for themselves, they must have been bought by the Lin family. As he expected, as soon as Liu Wenjing asked the two of them, they told Li Wenxuan's various bad deeds and unbearable ones one by one like endorsements.

After listening to what the two of them said, Liu Wenjing patted the hall again and said, "Li Wenxuan, what do you have to say?" ”

"Students are never going to be what they say they are." Li Wenxuan restrained his anger and said: "The Lin family can use gold and silver to buy my two slaves and maids, but I believe that the neighbors will not be bought." Adults only need to send someone to the student's neighborhood and ask them to know the truth. ”

Liu Wenjing, who thought he was reasonable, was not in a hurry to send the messengers of the hall to summon the witnesses, and said: "If the two of you dare to deceive this county, then you will not be spared." I ask you again, are you telling the truth? The man and woman didn't squeak, but glanced at each other, and then looked at Wang Dake together.

Li Wenxuan, who noticed the subtle movement of the two, breathed a sigh of relief. From this point of view, Liu Wenjing doesn't seem to have received the benefits of the Lin family, otherwise he wouldn't need so many moves, he could just make a direct judgment with a quick knife. However, I was not too blindly optimistic because of this.

"What do you see me doing?" Wang Dake, who was not like these two people who were a little flustered, said in an accentuated tone intended to reassure them: "Li Wenxuan is that kind of person, and your previous words are not wrong. Although they heard him say this, the two of them still hesitated and did not dare to say anything more.

Liu Wenjing, who had a number in his heart, saw that these two people had made perjury to wronged Li Wenxuan. However, he had another consideration, and he did not expose this layer of window paper in person, after all, the Lin family is the leading local family, and he can also invite the Taoist priest of the Qing Palace on Longhu Mountain to come down the mountain, which is enough to show that this energy cannot be underestimated.

Liu Wenjing has been in the officialdom for so many years, and it is not that he does not know that he wants to have a good relationship with the big local households. In addition, I can see that the Taoist priest sitting in the hall must have seen the world, and it will not be the kind of character in the Shangqing Palace who serves tea and pours water, sweeps the floor and does chores, but should belong to the kind of master who can enter and exit the prefect's yamen and patrol the yamen.

As for the mystery, Liu Wenxuan also knows a little bit clearly. Today's emperor is obsessed with Taoism, so many of the officials under him will take the initiative to cater to his wishes. Even if some people don't believe it in their hearts, they must make a look of conviction, after all, officials who know how to understand Taoism will be promoted faster than officials who do not believe in Taoism.

Liu Wenjing saw that the two of them didn't reply, so it was difficult for him to find the bottom of the steps, so he took out a sign from the lottery holder and threw it on the ground and said: "Come on, give these two people ten boards to the county respectively, so as to punish them for contempt of the court." ”

The official standing next to him did not hesitate at all. At the signal of the team leader, the official who came forward was skilled in business, so he pressed the man and woman to the ground, picked up the board in his hand and started fighting. The two of them screamed when they went down to the second board, but they gritted their teeth and didn't plan to change their words.
