At this time, in front of the trial hall that is open on the street on weekdays in Yanmen County, it has already been triple inside and three outside.

When Ye Teng followed behind Qian Tao and the others and struggled to squeeze in, he saw Chen Gong sitting calmly behind the main table in the middle from a distance, and on the unicorn mural behind him, the words "Love the People and Ruozi" were hung high. The 24 officers and men of the Beiwei Army, who had changed into the uniforms of the officials, were standing energetically on the left and right.

Although there were many onlookers, everyone was watching, and no one dared to come forward to complain. Look since ancient times, those who dare to be the first to eat crabs, after all, are a minority.

"My lord, this person just beat and molested women and women in the street, and the small people and the villagers were so angry that they sent him to the yamen, and asked the adults to be the masters!" The plainclothes brocade guard twisted the little hooligan to come forward to complain.

"Oh, where are the beaten, molested?" Chen Gong asked.

"The women are." Now, the woman holding the little boy gritted her teeth, dragged her injured leg, and tried to kneel in front of the hall.

"Give your name."

"Folk woman Chen Li."

"Do you know this person?" Chen Gong pointed to the little hooligan who was pressed to the ground by the plainclothes brocade guard.

"I know, it's the third son of the Zhao Mansion."

"Tell me what happened."

"Yes. The woman took the child to the street today, and when she met this Zhao Sangongzi, he stopped me on the street again, and the woman scolded him, and he pushed the mother and son to the ground, and then spoke lightly. ”

"Again, do you use to do this a lot?"

"Yes, a year ago, my husband died of illness, leaving only orphans and widows and an elderly mother-in-law in the family, and the uncles in the clan gradually lost contact. This third son of Zhao saw that the women were lonely and widowed, so he often stopped the women on the street, spoke lightly, and sometimes even moved his hands and feet, but the women were unwilling, so they were beaten by him more than once. Today, if it weren't for the fact that there was almost no rice at home, the women wanted to go to the street to find some work, and the women would not dare to go to the street on weekdays. When the women said this, they were already in tears, sorrowful, choked and wept.

Chen Gong turned to Zhao Sangongzi, his eyes narrowed, and he asked in a deep voice: "Zhao Sangongzi, who is your surname, and you still haven't reported it?!" ”

"Let go of me, I am the concubine of Zhao Mansion in the Yin Pavilion, surnamed Zhao Mingzuo, ranked third, known as Zhao Sangongzi."

"Is what this little lady said just now true?"

"She is a widow, I can take a fancy to her, it is a blessing that she has cultivated for several lifetimes, and she dares to sue me to see how I will clean her up in the future." Zhao Zuo's face was full of arrogance and indignation.

"In other words, what she said is basically true, right?" Chen Gong asked.

"Even if it's true. It's just a pariah, do you want to protect her? Zhao Zuo asked in protest with a stiff neck.

"Okay, a pariah, that's it, no wonder you dare to be so lawless." Chen Gong is trying to find a breakthrough, and there are still people who are in such a hurry to send it up, so what's polite?

"Come on, drag this guy who is rampant and troublesome in the Yin Pavilion down and hit the twenty boards!"

"No!" The two officials took Zhao Zuo from the hands of the plainclothes brocade guards, clamped them left and right, and dragged them out.

"If you dare, the Zhao family will not let you go." Zhao Zuo saw that the situation was a little bad and shouted threats.

"Won't let us go? As soon as you are just introduced, you dare to roar at the court and threaten the government like this, I really don't know whether to live or die, come on, add ten boards to me. Chen Gong's face was full of disdain.

The screams sounded from the next room, a miserable sound, poor Zhao Sangongzi, since he was a child, he led the family slaves, and roared the market, he has always bullied others, how could he be cleaned up so miserably.

After a while, Zhao Sangongzi, whose buttocks were beaten to a bloody blur, was dragged to the court again, and at this time he no longer needed to be pressed, he was directly thrown by the officials, lying on the ground, and could no longer stand up.

"Wronged, my lord, please make the old man's decision." Finally, an old man dressed in patches rushed out of the crowd and knelt above the court.

"Who will you sue if you have any grievances?" Chen Gong asked.

"My lord, it's this Zhao Sangongzi, he killed the villain's son."

"Oh, wait a minute." Chen Gong turned his face and said to a servant: "It seems that this case can't be ended immediately, move a stool for this little lady and let her sit and listen for the time being." ”

"No!"

The official moved a stool, watched the woman hold the child and thanked him and sat down, and Chen Gong started the trial again:

"Who is your surname, what is your son's surname, how did Zhao Zuo kill him, please come with the old man."

"The old man, surnamed Zhang Mingyuan, the son of the old man, Zhang Yu, was only eighteen years old last year.

Zhao Fu raised a leopard, and he had already captured Qingzhuang more than once, and pushed it into the fence of the leopard, so that people could fight the leopard with their bare hands for people's fun. The villain's son was caught by them on the street and fed to the leopard! Old man Zhang cried as he spoke.

It's appalling!

Chen Gong said sharply to Zhao Zuo: "Zhao Zuo, what Zhang Laohan said just now, is there such a thing?" ”

"No, my lord, not really!" Zhao Zuo began to be scared, and his voice trembled a little.

"No?! Do you dare to say no? Zhang Yuan pointed to the outside of the hall and said loudly: "My lord, there are definitely more than one or two people in Yinguan City who were caught by the Zhao Mansion to feed the leopards, and the old man believes that among the villagers outside the hall, there are relatives who were caught by the Zhao Mansion to feed the leopards!" ”

Zhang Yuan said, suddenly stood up, turned around and shouted to the crowd: "Folks, today's adults are willing to be the masters of the little ones, and if there is a family member who was caught by the Zhao Mansion to feed the leopard, hurry up and stand up!" Such a deep hatred, if you don't report it today, when will you wait! Do you have to wait for your next loved one to be caught and fed to the leopards? ”

Zhang Yuanhuo is out!

Sure enough, three people walked out of the crowd, an old woman, a teenager, and a middle-aged woman.

"Adult, please be the master of the little one, the brother of the little man will be captured by them to fight the leopard."

"My lord, please be the master of the old woman, the old woman's son was also captured by the Zhao Mansion to feed the leopards."

"My lord, please be the master of the people's women, the husbands of the people's women were also captured by the Zhao Mansion to feed the leopards."

It seems that nine times out of ten it is true at this time, it is really crazy and appalling!

Chen Gong stood up, his hands trembled, and he burst into tears! muttered to himself: "How innocent are the people, being trampled like this!" ”

turned to a sharp voice: "Someone! ”

"In!" Cai Hui stayed behind to lead the generals of the 500 Beiwei Army, the senior military general Li Le, bowed and said.

"Take 300 back Wei troops, go to copy the Zhao Mansion, and arrest all the men, women and children left for me, those who dare to resist will be killed!"

"No!" Li Le turned around with his right hand and led the troops away.

At this time, Zhao Zuo had collapsed to the ground, and the fear he had never had made him incontinent.

The seemingly fierce and cruel gentleman turned out to be nothing more than a coward.

Chen Gong turned his head to Chen Li and said, "You can go back now, or you can wait here, after the Zhao family is in charge, there will be floating wealth, and you will get a certain amount of compensation." If you want to go back, leave your address, and I'll have the official send it to you. ”

"The women are willing to wait." The family is in difficulty, and if you forget to send it to her when you get compensation, or you are greedy by the officials, will you still find the yamen to complain at that time? Let's wait.

"Send her two buns, the child should be hungry." Chen Gong instructed the errand officer.

"No!"

"Sir, you have to be the master of the villain, my poor girl......"

"My lord, the Wang family is too ...... to deceive people"

"Adult ......"

……

Watching the government try the case did not seem to be a fraud, and among the onlookers, dozens of complainants poured out at once.
