While the pock-faced man and others were busy rummaging through their belongings, Zhang Fugui left the yellow lotus who had gone crazy, endured the pain on his body, and escaped. He didn't run out of the city, stumbled to the county yamen, and desperately knocked on the drum next to the gate.

Liu Wenjing, who was sitting in the inner hall to serve his mother, also had to be transferred out to the lobby to work. Sitting under the hanging plaque of the Spiegel, he was promoted to the church according to the established procedure. Zhang Fugui, who was limping and kneeling on the top of the lobby, wept bitterly and asked Li Wenxuan to instigate Zhu Biao and others to break into the house without permission and deliberately beat and drive people away.

Because the other party knocked on the drum of resentment in front of the yamen, Liu Wenjing also had to do business. He took out a sign from the lottery holder, threw it down, and asked to catch Li Wenxuan quickly. Picking up the sign on the ground, he turned around and stepped directly out of the lobby threshold. He didn't bring too many helpers and chains, but just took one of his apprentices with him.

Seeing the other party's fast arrest at Li Wenxuan's house, he was not as arrogant as the last time he came here to take people, but accompanied by a smile and a careful face: "Daochang Li, someone sued you in front of the county honor, so please go with me to the county yamen." Li Wenxuan, who got up, knew that he had to go, after all, he had the sign issued by Liu Wenjing to take the person in his hand.

And Zhao Tian'er, who was standing next to her, looked very worried, and just wanted to speak, but Li Wenxuan, who was smiling, took the lead and said, "Don't worry, I'll go and go back." With that, he walked straight forward. Catch Kuai and his apprentice both signaled goodbye to Zhao Tian'er and Su Meiniang, and then turned around and followed Li Wenxuan.

Zhao Tian'er, who was still not at ease, had just taken a step outside when she was stopped by Su Meiniang next to her and said, "Since he said don't worry, then you and I will cook a meal at home and wait for him to come back." ”

"But ......" Zhao Tian'er, who wanted to say the worries in her heart, spit out these two words, and before she could say the following, she was interrupted by Su Meiniang: "There is nothing but." Let's go, let's go to the kitchen. Zhao Tian'er, who still hadn't let go of her heart, looked at the direction where Li Wenxuan was gone, but the person was pulled away alive by Su Meiniang.

Li Wenxuan, who came to the lobby, did not look at Zhang Fugui who was kneeling on the ground, but first politely saluted Liu Wenjing, who was sitting in the hall, and asked knowingly: "I don't know why the county of Ludao summoned the students to come?" ”

I have long heard that he is not only a Taoist, but also Liu Wenjing, who is very good at Taoism, does not have the first time to sit proudly. Standing up, he also politely saluted him, and then ordered the hall to say, "Look at the seats." I saw a servant hurriedly running to the back, bringing out a chair and placing it on the right side. Li Wenxuan, who was not polite, strode forward and turned around to sit down.

Liu Wenjing, who sat down again, didn't bother to look at the plaintiff kneeling on the ground, and asked with a blank face and a cold language: "Zhang Fugui, you sued Li Wenxuan for harming you, so can anyone testify?" ”

Zhang Fugui, who wanted to say that all neighbors in the neighborhood could come out to testify for him, didn't dare to say it, after all, there were neighbors in the crowd of onlookers and watchers. At that time, not only did they not help themselves to speak, but their expressions also revealed the meaning that they would dare to leave him, a scourge.

"This, this, this ......" Zhang Fugui, who was like a mirror, knew that letting them testify for him was to dig a pit with his own hands to bury himself. He couldn't find a good word to say for a while, and he suddenly felt speechless.

"This and this." Liu Wenjing, who looked impatient, slapped the shocking wood on the public case, and said sharply: "Just because you came here to talk about it, and there is no witness, then you are falsely accused." Come on, give me this 20 boards. ”

Zhang Fugui, who was so frightened that he was about to lose his soul, kowtowed his head to the ground vigorously on the one hand, and rushed to the doctor in a hurry: "Lord Zhixian, the villain's words are true. At that time, Sun Zhukuai was present. He can come and testify for the lesser ones. ”

Liu Wenjing, who had just pulled out the sign from the lottery holder, did not throw it away, but summoned Sun Zhukuai, who was a witness. Seeing this situation, Li Wenxuan, who was sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai platform, did not change the expression on his face in the slightest. Sitting on the side, he had long observed that Zhang Fugui was at the end of his rope and had no rules.

I believe that even if Sun Zhu quickly stands up as a witness and tells the objective facts, it is also the words of one person, and there are hundreds of people in the city behind him who will take the initiative to stand up and be a witness for himself. Moreover, Li Wenxuan, who could pretend to be deaf and dumb, had heard the relevant news from Zhu Biao one step earlier, so that he himself already had sufficient alibi evidence.

After Liu Wenjing asked Zhang Fugui to repeat the original words before and after, he began to ask the witness: "Sun Zhukuai, can Zhang Fugui's words be true?" ”

Sun Zhukuai, who looked around the lobby with two eyes, didn't want to wade into this troubled water, after all, it didn't do him any good. In addition, he noticed that Li Wenxuan had been treated as a guest by Liu Wenjing, so there was no need to offend Li Wenxuan for Zhang Fugui, who had no friendship with him.

Sun Zhu quickly judged the situation and pushed the boat down the river and said: "The small one, I don't know what to do." ”

Zhang Fugui, who was completely panicked, crawled under his feet with his hands and feet, tears and sweat mixed together, and begged bitterly: "Sun Zhu, you can't blacken your conscience like this!" You were there! ”

Li Wenxuan, who heard him say this, really felt very funny in his heart. A person who once had a black heart and not only turned his back on his master, but also colluded with outsiders to frame himself, even had the face to mention the word "conscience"? really responded to that sentence, people who are full of hair all over their bodies still say that others have more hair.

Liu Wenjing, who was still hanging in the mirror, asked again with a smile on his face: "Sun Zhukuai, do you really know what to do?" ”

Sun Zhukuai, who has been in the public for many years, has seen too much about the true and the false, and the false and the true, and it doesn't matter at all whether it is reasonable or not. He had long been numb, but he still didn't change his words and said, "Little, I really don't know what Zhang Fugui is talking about?" ”

Liu Wenjing, who didn't ask again, had already regarded Zhang Fugui as a slippery person, and quite quickly took out the lottery card from the lottery holder, threw it out and said, "Give me this Diao Min 30 board." ”

The yacha standing on the left and right sides first came up and directly pushed Zhang Fugui to the ground, and then the two yamen who came up from behind picked up the board in their hands and took turns hitting Zhang Fugui's buttocks. If they hadn't given the money to these yamen, they would have been able to break their muscles and bones within ten boards, and there would be no injuries on the surface.

If you use money and buy them off, it will be very different. Even if the thirty plates are knocked down, at most it will be a blurred flesh and blood, and it looks like a miserable epidermal injury. After a short period of recuperation, there will be no sequelae. Therefore, the board in the hands of the official can be both a life-urging charm and a life-saving charm.

"Lord Zhixian spares his life, Li Gongzi spare me!" Zhang Fugui, who was both sober and confused in his mind, had already been so frightened that his face was bloodless and said: "Childe, you are my slave and maid to speak!" ”

Li Wenxuan, who was still silent, only felt that he had brought it on himself. The board that fell on Zhang Fugui's ass was naturally real. Therefore, every board hit his ass and screamed like a pig. Halfway through the thirty boards, he fainted in pain.

"County Zun, Zhang Fugui is in a faint." One of the officials who paused to start was replying on one side and asking for instructions on the other.

"If you faint, then douse it with water to wake up, and then call me again." Liu Wenjing, who hated Diao Min very much in his life, did not let Zhang Fugui go.

The official who received the order turned around and walked out of the lobby, and after a short time, most of the buckets of well water were called, and with a "bang", it fell directly on Zhang Fugui's head. Zhang Fugui, who was woken up, still did not forget to shout "wronged" in his mouth.

Liu Wenjing, who was sitting in the hall, glared angrily and said, "What did you wrong?" You framed good people, and they deserved it. After speaking, he motioned for the official to continue fighting.

After receiving the order, the official who didn't say a word picked up the board again and slapped Zhang Fugui's ass. During the end of the thirty boards, Zhang Fugui fainted again, but he was woken up again, and after receiving it alive, he was dragged out of the court like a dead dog by the yacha and thrown out of the county yamen.

Seeing Li Wenxuan, who had already done the matter, he slowly stood up and faced Liu Wenjing, and said with a sense of praise in his politeness: "Liu Xianzun is really hanging high in the mirror, and he will not let such a bad man succeed." You are Bao Qingtian of my Ming Dynasty. ”

Liu Wenjing, who also stood up immediately, smiled very and said, "How dare you." As a local parent official, this should be the case. Otherwise, I would be ashamed of the emperor and this robe. ”

"The county is really too modest. Another day, the students will definitely send the plaque engraved with the world blue sky, after all, you deserve these four words. Li Wenxuan, who didn't want to stay here for a long time, didn't leave the road.

"Daochang Li, you have a good reputation. I can't afford it. Liu Wenjing, who knows that he has a high prestige among the local people, believes that the affirmation he can get from him will help establish his good reputation and good official voice in Guixi County.

Li Wenxuan, who felt that he was particularly hypocritical, still had to finish the process with him, so he insisted again and again, and Liu Wenjing reluctantly agreed.

Li Wenxuan said goodbye and said: "The student knows that the county is busy with official business, so he won't bother here. ”

Liu Wenjing, who walked down, personally sent him out of the lobby door. For this kind of high-standard courtesy, Li Wenxuan did not get carried away, but did not forget to politely stop at the door and say the word "please stay" again, and then went straight.
