Volume 2 Half Landscape Half Split Fate 006 Murder in the middle of the night
Li Shenshi was so ashamed of this ridicule that he simply broke the jar, gritted his teeth and said to the errand behind him: "What are you still doing in a daze? Didn't you hear me? Why don't you take this woman down quickly? β
Qiu Yizhi immediately became angry and shouted: "Who dares? β
Qiu Yi has been in the central place for a long time, and the people he has come into contact with are all heroes among the people, and he has heard and seen a lot of heroic spirits, and this roar really scared the officials so much that they didn't dare to take a step forward.
I only heard that Li Shenshi shouted angrily: "You guys hurry up, if something happens, it's all on my head!" β
Among these officials, there are also those who have something to do with this case, and they heard that the county magistrate was going to personally carry the bag, and finally mustered up the courage to step forward to arrest Yang Qiaoer.
Seeing this, Qiu Yizhi laughed cruelly and said to Zhao Chengxiao and the others: "These people don't know how to lift, so they have to teach a good lesson!" β
Zhao Chengxiao and the others were Qiu Yizhi's henchmen and soldiers, of course they knew what he meant by this - without saying a word, he rolled up his sleeves and fought with the group of officials.
Such county government officials are just some thugs and lackeys, who still bully the weak and fear the hard, and Rao is a large number of people, and it is not of much use.
And Qiu Yizhi's personal soldiers were originally outlaws on Yunmeng Mountain, following Qiu Yizhi's birth and death, the southern expedition and the northern war, all of them boiled out a good pair of bones, and after the personal command of Chi Lianghong, the chief captain of the Martial Arts League, they have already practiced a good kung fu with one as ten.
So in just a cup of tea, the group of officials were all knocked to the ground by Zhao Chengxiao and other eighteen personal soldiers, with minor or serious injuries all over their bodies, and they did not keep moaning with "babbling" in their mouths.
Where have the onlookers in Shanyin County seen such a scene, and after a short silence, a deafening cheer suddenly erupted.
Qiu Yizhi looked around, very proud in his heart, so he stretched out his hands and pressed down slightly twice, signaling the surrounding crowd to silence, and said to Yang Qiao'er, who was kneeling on the ground: "Your paper, the official has taken it." As for the merits of the case, the judge should carefully investigate it, and will always give you a clear answer, whether it is good or evil. β
He turned his head again and said to the stunned Li Shenshi: "Master Li, what is your role in this case, you must know it yourself. In the next three points of Sven for you, don't break it in public, you go back and wait for the impeachment! β
After that, Qiu Yizhi didn't pay attention to Li Shenshi, and walked towards the county government alone.
Zhao Chengxiao hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "How are these errands dispatched, please make it clear!" β
Qiu Yizhi sneered and said: "I don't need these miscellaneous things here, I will send them all back, and be a good citizen with peace of mind, which can be regarded as their creation!" β
As soon as the words fell, Qiu Yizhi entered the gate of the county government without looking back.
This San'in County Yamen has just been renovated, the top and bottom inside and outside look very neat and clean, the structure is also very bright, the lobby, the back hall, the study and other bedrooms, kitchens, warehouses, stables and other houses are readily available, and there is even a small garden nursery.
Qiu Yizhi was full of worries, how could he have the heart to visit the county office, and just walked to the back hall and found a chair to do it, but his heart was indignant - he didn't expect that there were such dirty things in this seemingly clean Shanyin County.
When Qiu Yizhi was angry, Wang Lao Wu trotted into the house, made a gesture towards Qiu Yizhi, and said softly: "The matter of Fang Cai, the small ones are all in their eyes." I don't know if the adults want to harm this Yang girl, or do they want to help her? β
Qiu Yizhi didn't seem to hear Wang Lao Wu's words clearly, turned his head to look directly at Wang Lao Wu, and said: "Old Wu, you have something to say, don't beat around the bush with me!" β
"Alas! Adults have always been above board, how do you know what is going on here? Wang Lao Wu sighed, "Although the little one doesn't know the facts of the case, looking at the appearance of Master Li, he is obviously deeply involved in this case." Today, the adults forced him to be in a hurry, and it is hard to guarantee that he will not jump over the wall in a hurry and kill people! β
"Hahaha!" Qiu Yizhi smiled and said, "Kill me? I have been in and out of the tiger's den several times, and I have been able to escape with my whole body, don't you know? Earn the door of Tongguan alone, don't you know? Personally entered the imperial city to persuade the puppet emperor Zheng Yao to commit suicide, don't you know? Want to kill me? You go and ask Zhao Chengxiao first! β
Wang Lao Wu hurriedly arched his hand and said: "That person surnamed Li is a fart in front of adults!" Even if he lent him eight pairs of bear-hearted leopard galls, he didn't dare to embarrass adults. What does the villain mean is that if he wants to find Miss Yang's bad luck? β
"What! He Li Shenshi wants to murder the accuser? Can he have the guts? Qiu Yizhi couldn't help but get up and scolded, "Isn't this Shanyin County a big Han world?" He is also an official anyway, how can he defy the law like this? β
Wang Lao Wu shook his head and said with a wry smile: "What a noble person your lord is, how can you know the twists and turns here." It's a small one, and I've been a broker for a few months before I heard about it. Take this matter as an example, since the adult has received the paper, he can't cover it, if he really wants to perfunctory past, the only way to kill the Yang girl is to kill her. Without the bitter master, the adults will not be able to judge the case, and this matter will be barely erased. β
The more Qiu Yizhi listened, the more frightened he became, he thought that the corruption of the Han Dynasty was due to the laziness and inaction of Zheng Yong, the former emperor who had been accused of "Emperor Mu Zonggong". And his father-in-law ascended to the throne as the emperor, made countless decrees to rectify the rule of officials, and severely punished and investigated several corrupt officials.
Thinking of this, Qiu Yizhi has secretly made up his mind to take this case as an opportunity to eradicate this group of corrupt officials and evil officials for his father-in-law and the people.
So he sorted out his thoughts and said, "Wang Lao Wu, you go out and find out where Miss Yang's family lives." Quick returns, no slowness. β
Wang Lao Wu listened to the order, agreed, and trotted all the way to run errands.
Qiu Yizhi saw him leave, and beckoned Zhao Chengxiao to come over, and said, "Brother Zhao, in the cell behind the county government, the sister of Yang Qiao'er's girl, called Yang Ying'er, was imprisoned. You send reliable people over at once, and take care of all your food and daily life, and don't let those ghosts and villains assassinate her!" β
Yang Qiaoer's family was originally a poor family in Shanyin County, and after being contaminated with this lawsuit for no reason, she sold all valuable items in order to avenge her grievances. After this turmoil, the old father and mother died in just half a year.
Yang Qiaoer had already planned to give up avenging, but she heard the news from somewhere, saying that Li Shenshi, the old magistrate of the county, was going to be transferred to another place, and a new branch jinshi was added. After she knew, she only regarded it as a dead horse as a live horse doctor, and was ready to avenge her grievances one last time, if she didn't succeed this time, she would be disheartened, and after sending her sister Yang Ying'er to death, she would go away.
However, the new magistrate Qiu Yizhi did not hesitate to take her case as soon as they met, which rekindled her hope, so that she tossed and turned in the middle of the night and couldn't sleep.
At this moment, Yang Qiao'er faintly seemed to hear the footsteps of someone walking outside the door, and she felt strange in her heart and shouted: "Who is outside?" β
As soon as she finished speaking, the footsteps outside the door stopped, and then there were several knocks on the door, and someone heard someone say: "I am a county official officer, and the new magistrate sent us over to summon you for interrogation." Hurry up and open the door and follow us to the county office. β
Although Yang Qiao'er is still young and a woman, she is bold and careful in doing things, and she feels that there is something wrong, so she said: "When is this?" I have never heard of a yamen trying a case in the middle of the night. You go back first, I'll go to the county government tomorrow morning. β
The person outside the door was stunned for a moment, then knocked on the door vigorously and shouted: "If you are told to go, you will go, what are you talking about!" β
Yang Qiao'er heard that he was rude and impatient, so she knew that the situation was wrong, and hurriedly got up and dressed, but her mind was thinking about how to deal with it.
Seeing that Yang Qiao'er didn't move, the people outside the door couldn't help but feel a little anxious, so they knocked and pushed the door harder. The door of Yang Qiaoer's house was already in disrepair, how could it withstand such damage, and it was completely unloaded by the people outside the door in two clicks.
Without the door to block it, the people outside the door became even more unscrupulous, and seven or eight people carrying lanterns entered Yang Qiaoer's room.
Yang Qiao'er was a young woman after all, and she was shocked when she saw this, and she curled up in the corner of the hut and didn't dare to move.
The person who entered the room laughed and said, "Miss Yang, why didn't you agree to ask you to open the door?" You see, it's a pity that a wooden door was damaged for no reason. β
Yang Qiao'er was frightened for a moment, and by the dim and flickering candlelight of the lantern, she barely recognized that these people were the original group of county officials who were beaten on the street todayβthey all had bruises on their faces.
Yang Qiao'er knew in her heart: these people had just been expelled by the new magistrate during the day, how could they be reactivated at night? It must have other intentions and bad intentions.
Thinking of this, Yang Qiao'er plucked up her courage, stood up with her back against the brick wall, and said loudly: "You are all Li Shenshi's doglegs, isn't it enough to be beaten during the day?" If you still want to come to me to spread wild, aren't you afraid that the new magistrate will condemn you for trespassing on a private house late at night, and then send you to the Western Regions as a soldier? β
Although the group of officials are all seven-foot men, they are far from Yang Qiaoer's calmness and courage, and they are also thieves.
At this moment, a person pushed aside the crowd, walked from outside the door, and said to Yang Qiao'er with a smile: "Miss Yang, don't you want to avenge your grievances?" Don't you think I dare to take the paper? Okay, okay, I'll take your case today, you can come with me! β
Yang Qiaoer rubbed her eyes, and couldn't believe it - it turned out that this person was Li Shenshi of Lao Zhi County - for such a little folk girl as her, she actually went out in person.
Although she is bold, she is weak in the face of the court officials; I thought of myself as a weak woman, isolated in the middle of the night, and my legs were weak in despair, and I was unable to stand up, so I was paralyzed against the wall.
Li Shenshi saw that such a famous fierce woman as her had finally succumbed, and he was proud in his heart, so he ordered his subordinates to send a messenger: "Miss Yang is sick and can't walk, you go and help her!" β
These servants are all evil ghosts in the color, knowing that in the process of supporting, it is inevitable to have physical contact with Yang Qiaoer, a woman in the flower season, so they smiled lewdly and stepped forward to stretch out their hands, and they were going to pull Yang Qiaoer up.
Yang Qiao'er saw that she was about to be humiliated, so she simply risked her life, and she didn't pay attention to the errand officer, and she didn't know where she got her strength, and she slammed down in front of Li Shenshi with a kick of her legs.
Li Shenshi was a weak scholar, old and powerless, and he didn't react under this sudden blow, allowing Yang Qiaoer to throw himself to the ground.
As soon as Yang Qiao'er hit her hand, she was unceremoniously, slapped Li Shenshi in the face with both hands, and kept shouting and scolding: "You corrupt official! Dog officer! Destroy my family! Even if I die, I will take you with me to Hades!" β
She scolded to the sore spot, and the beating with both hands was not enjoyable, she lowered her head, opened her mouth and bit Li Shenshi's left ear, and bit off half of his ear firmly.
