Chapter 35 The Great Hidden in the Court
"It seems that you have been in this prison for nothing, and you have not thought about why you were sent to prison? Is it really because of litigation? Seeing the young scribe's affection, the blue-robed boy became a little excited, shook his head again, and looked at him with a disappointed expression. I'll tell you that the fastest update of the novel is the eye. Hurry?
"You...... Are you Li Yuntian? The young scribe was stunned when he heard this, and then his eyes flashed, and he said in surprise.
"What did you say?" Li Yuntian couldn't help but raise his voice when he saw the young scribe calling his name.
"Student Yang Yungui, meet the magistrate." The young scribe realized that he had lost his words, and hurriedly bowed his hand to Li Yuntian.
"Yang Shengyuan, do you still think that the official sent you to prison because of a lawsuit?" Li Yuntian smiled slightly, stared at Yang Yungui and said.
"Under the dullness, please make it clear." Yang Yungui bowed his hand to Li Yuntian again, his eyes flickered a little, and he secretly guessed Li Yuntian's intentions.
It is rumored that Li Yuntian is a stunned Qingzhi County who is not deeply involved in the world, and some of his actions seem to confirm this.
But when he saw it today, Yang Yungui found that the rumors were not credible, and Li Yuntian felt a huge pressure in just a few words, which had never happened before.
"You know that those two cases can't be overturned, why do you still write letters to Liu Bo and Boss Feng? Wouldn't this force the official to beat them up, so that the official would have a bad reputation! Li Yuntian sneered and said with a stern expression, "Could it be that you are here to polish your pen for that little bit?" ”
"Adults don't know, even if they don't write a letter to them, they will find someone else, and I believe that no one in Jiujiang Mansion can write a letter that can be compared to the next, so I will start writing in the next." Yang Yungui shook his head and said proudly.
"In the county's view, even if the pleadings are beautifully written, as long as it is not helpful to overturn the case, it is a waste of paper." Li Yuntian saw Yang Yungui's arrogant expression, and coldly poured a basin of cold water on him, "Knowing that you can't do it, it's either stupid or famous!" ”
"My lord, in fact, the situation below is not useless, and all the clues are hidden in the situation." The corners of Yang Yungui's mouth showed a look of disdain, and he said lightly.
"If you know the clue, why don't you say it?" Li Yuntian noticed Yang Yungui's disdainful look and looked at him coldly, "If this official can't see it, is it going to watch them suffer injustice?" ”
"My lord, I am only responsible for the case, and the trial is an adult's business." Yang Yungui's brows furrowed slightly, and he said lightly, looking like he had nothing to do with himself.
"The official thought that you were just a talent, but now it seems that the official is wrong, you are just a coward who goes with the flow." Li Yuntian stared at Yang Yungui for a while, then shook his head in disappointment, "Fortunately, Boss Zhou didn't marry Miss Zhou to you, you are not worthy of Miss Zhou at all." ”
"She should find someone better than me." Yang Yungui's eyes lit up for a moment, and then dimmed, and his expression looked quite lost.
"Small hidden in the wild, hidden in the city, big hidden in the court, when can you understand this truth, Miss Zhou is not wrong." Li Yuntian shook his head, he felt that Yang Yungui looked arrogant on the surface, but in fact, he was very lonely in his heart, and the feeling of being alone and appreciating himself was actually very sad.
As he spoke, Li Yuntian walked towards the door, and Yang Yungui was stunned, his eyes revealing a thoughtful look.
"My lord, do you really want to know the clues of those two cases and avenge Liu Bo and Boss Feng?" When he walked to the door, Yang Yungui suddenly asked.
"If you know, why don't you help them?" Li Yuntian stopped, he didn't answer Yang Yungui, but asked rhetorically.
"There is more than enough in the heart, but not enough strength." When Yang Yungui heard this, his face couldn't help but show a trace of shame.
"A true hermit is in the midst of the current situation and is not shocked by honor and disgrace, and handles it calmly." Li Yuntian turned around and said to Yang Yungui in a serious voice, "Brother Yang, if you really want to avenge them, then don't just talk about it, show it with practical actions, everyone is drunk and I am alone It is an irresponsible escape." ”
"Adults have good words, but they are not very taught." Yang Yungui looked at Li Yuntian with a surprised expression, he never thought that Li Yuntian would look down on him so much, calling him "Brother Yang", and the heartfelt words just now spoke to his heart, which made him feel a sense of pity for Li Yuntian, and then his face turned pale, and he solemnly bowed to Li Yuntian.
"Brother Yang, if it's you, if you persuade Zheng Wen to open the coffin for an autopsy, and return the Feng family to an innocence?" A hint of a smile appeared on the corner of Li Yuntian's mouth, and he asked quietly.
"Ming Xiu plank road, secretly cross Chen Cang!" Although Li Yuntian's words were a bit clueless, Yang Yungui was stunned for a moment and understood what was going on, replied in a deep voice, and a fine light flashed in his eyes when he looked at Li Yuntian, he didn't expect that Li Yuntian had already seen through the Feng family's case.
"That official is waiting for the people of the Feng family to come in the county office." Li Yuntian laughed, left a sentence and turned away.
"No wonder Wang San wants to plant it in his hands!" Looking at Li Yuntian's departing back, Yang Yungui muttered to himself.
He thinks very highly of himself on weekdays, but today he undoubtedly fell behind in front of Li Yuntian, and Li Yuntian's hand made the other party have to open an autopsy.
Two days later, in the afternoon, Boss Feng appeared outside the county government office in Hukou County, picked up a drumstick and beat the big drum on the side of the door.
Seeing this, several officials standing at the gate of the county government couldn't help but glance at each other, if they had been before, they would have rushed up, snatched the drumstick in Boss Feng's hand, and drove away after a fist and kick.
According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, if ordinary people want to file a lawsuit, they must first submit the complaint, and then the county magistrate will open a court to hear the case.
Unless there is no time to write a complaint in an emergency, then you can go to the county yamen to beat the drum and voice the grievances, and the county lord must "listen to the drum and rise to the court" no matter what he is doing.
Usually, the drumming is a complicated case, and it disturbs the rest of the county magistrate, so few county magistrates like to encounter this kind of thing, so those officials will naturally not let the people beat the drum.
However, since Li Yuntian came to Hukou County, it was expressly forbidden to obstruct the people's complaints, which made the officials at the gate have to watch Boss Feng beat the drum there.
The sound of drums immediately attracted the people on the street, and they gathered around to see the excitement, pointing at Boss Feng and discussing it one after another, because many people knew Boss Feng in Feng Tian's case, thinking that he still wanted to avenge Feng Tian when he came to the county office.
Hearing the sound of drums, Wang Yu, the county Cheng who was drinking tea in the county office, frowned slightly, and then put down the teacup and walked to the court.
After Li Yuntian came to Hukou County, he rarely went to court to ask about cases, and the cases were all tried and decided by Wang Yu, unless Wang Yu reported to him again when he encountered those important cases, so he ended up a clean and leisurely.
"Who is kneeling in the hall, and what is the drum?" After Boss Feng was brought to court by a servant, Wang Yu immediately recognized him, Wang Yu had just come to Hukou County to take office when Feng Tian was in the case, so he had experienced this case and remembered Boss Feng vividly, so he was shocked and asked quietly.
"Lord Qiyu, Boss Feng, the grass people, came to report and expose a person who secretly colluded with the water bandits." Boss Feng hurriedly knelt on the ground and replied loudly.
"Boss Feng, this official asked you, do you have conclusive evidence?" Wang Yu's eyes flashed with a look of surprise, he thought that Boss Feng was here to avenge Feng Tian, but he didn't expect that it was a report.
"Yes, the grass people have conclusive evidence, the grass people's nephew Feng Tian once told the grass people personally, and the grass people suspect that he has been killed by that person now." Boss Feng looked at Wang Yu solemnly.
"Who is this person?" Wang Yu couldn't help but ask in a deep voice when he heard this.
"De'an County grain merchant Qi Degui!" Boss Feng replied loudly.
As soon as these words came out, there was immediately a small commotion among the people watching the excitement outside the public hall, and some people knew that Qi Degui was the largest grain merchant in De'an County, and he was very famous in the business circles of De'an County and even Jiujiang Prefecture.
"Qi Degui?" Wang Yu was stunned for a moment, then his face sank, and he slapped the shocked wood hard, looking at Boss Feng with a stern expression, "Boss Feng, do you know that false accusations will be severely punished." ”
"My lord, the grass people did not make false accusations, the grass people's nephew Feng Tian quietly returned home last month and accused the grass people of Qi Degui for having an affair with the water bandits, and wanted to kill him." Boss Feng's face was fearless, he looked at Wang Yu with a stern expression and said, "Originally, Feng Tian wanted to report his safety to the grass people two days ago, but there has been no news, and the grass people are sure that he has been killed by Qi Degui, so he came to report the case." ”
"Do you have proof?" Wang Yu felt that things had become very tricky, and asked expressionlessly.
"Although the grass people do not have evidence that Qi Degui killed Feng Tian, there is evidence of his collusion with the water bandits." Boss Feng replied loudly, and then kowtowed to Wang Yu, "Please let the grass people be the master." ”
"Boss Feng, you have to think about it, this matter is not only about the water bandits, but also involves two counties, once it is verified and falsely accused, the consequences will be unimaginable." Wang Yu saw that Boss Feng looked like he was swearing, so he frowned and reminded him that even if Li Yuntian wanted to spare him at that time, then Zheng Wen, the magistrate of De'an County, would definitely not let him go, not to mention that the humiliated Qi family would find a way to put him to death.
"My lord, the grass people are true, please let the grass people be the masters!" Boss Feng touched the ground with his head and said loudly, as if he had made up his mind.
"The matter is serious, this official wants to inform the county lord, and ask the county lord to decide." Seeing this, Wang Yu knew that Boss Feng's case was settled, and after a deep groan, he said to him, "You live in the county government first, and tomorrow morning the county lord will hold a court to hear the case." ”
Saying that, Wang Yu got up and left, he didn't ask Boss Feng about Qi Degui's incriminating evidence, the so-called Mingzhe to protect his life, Qi Degui's Qi family is like the Zhang family and the Chen family in Hukou County in De'an County, how can it be easy to provoke, so more is better than less.
Moreover, this matter involves Hukou County and De'an County, and it is not something that he can afford to mix with a county prince, and he needs Li Yuntian, the county lord, to come forward.
Since Li Yuntian and Lu Calyx went out of the city early this morning to play, he could only postpone the time of ascension to tomorrow and let Li Yuntian solve this tricky matter.
