Chapter 106 Court Trial
In the hall of the county government, Li Mojin sat on the top and drank tea, looking calm and relaxed.
Gu Jinxiu, who was at the bottom of the group, raised his eyes to look at him, feeling that they were far apart, if he hadn't come here, maybe they would never meet again in this life.
Seeing Gu Jinxiu's eyes staring at him ethereal, Li Mojin didn't enjoy her gaze as much as before at this moment, he wanted to step forward and hug this person.
However, the current situation did not allow him to do so.
Gu Jinxiu, who came back to his senses, frowned when he saw Li Mojin's nervous expression, and his eyes were full of doubts.
Seeing Gu Jinxiu looking at him, Li Mojin slowly withdrew the gaze embedded in her and turned his head to look at him.
Li Mojin patted the startled wood, only to hear the sound of "pop", and suddenly, the lobby became quiet.
"Today, the official is here to try the fight between the villagers of the two villages in the Yanghe River, and if anyone disturbs the court, he will be punished with a cane."
One sentence quieted down the onlookers, and they only whispered to the people around them, and no one dared to make a loud noise.
Seeing this, Li Mojin said, "Whoever is kneeling in the hall, report the name truthfully." ”
There were three "impostors" in the hall, the village chief of Huangjia Village and Gu Jinxiu, except for Gu Jinxiu, who had a meritorious reputation, everyone else knelt and said their names one by one.
Li Mojin knew that what they were talking about was not his own name, so he picked up the shocking wood and patted it, and his phoenix eyes swept sharply towards the three impostors who didn't tell the truth.
"This official will give you another chance, if you lie again, don't blame this official for being ruthless."
The three impostors raised their eyes and secretly looked at Gao Xiancheng and Liu, who were standing aside, and after a while repeated the names they had just said.
Seeing that the three refused to admit it, Li Mojin ordered: "Take their family members to the court." ”
At this time, Gao Xiancheng knew that Li Mojin had already prepared, and he regretted very much that he shouldn't have done it, what should he do now?
Just as Gao Xiancheng was pondering, the families of the three people had been brought to court.
Gu Jinxiu listened to the words they recognized with the Sanming impostor, glanced at the lobby, and saw that the lobby was already like a vegetable market at this time, and raised his eyes to look at Li Mojin, only to see Li Mojin sitting there watching.
The leisurely appearance made Gu Jinxiu think that this was not the place to try the case.
However, Li Mojin's appearance made her think of the four words of strategizing.
Her heart chuckled a little, this... It can't be what she thinks, right?
Then this is not so much that when someone calculates this matter, Li Mojin already knows it, as long as he waits for the big guy to enter the play.
What about her, is she also a playmaker under him?
Thinking of being used, Gu Jinxiu suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, and quickly lowered her eyes to cover the emotions in her apricot eyes.
Gu Jinxiu, Gu Jinxiu, you came to this different time and space, it seems that you have only made one friend, and your popularity is really bad!
Li Mojin was very puzzled by the emotions that Gu Jinxiu had just shown, but the court was still waiting for him to try the case, so he had to put the matter aside for the time being.
"Village Chief Huang, do you have anything to say to this official?"
Village Chief Huang's cloudy eyes looked at Gu Jinxiu, and said with a smile: "Gu Gongzi, do you remember when you went to talk to the old man that day?" ”
Gu Jinxiu knew that Village Chief Huang recognized her, so she generously admitted: "Remember, I don't know what Village Chief Huang needs me to do?" ”
Looking at such a Huang village chief, Gu Jinxiu already had a bad premonition in her heart, she was also the village chief, she wanted to mess around, but the old village chief was thinking about how to change the fate of the villagers, however, because the Zhao and Huang families made him exhausted and powerless to change.
Gu Jinxiu is still full of admiration for this good village chief who is dedicated to public duties, and she is willing to help when she can.
Village Chief Huang said: "When your village is rich, please help the Huang family too." ”
"Good!"
At this time, Gu Jinxiu didn't think about changing the village of the three surnames, she only had a small world in her heart.
However, this did not affect her promise to respond to the old man.
The conversation between the two ended in just a moment, and Village Chief Huang smiled and nodded, knowing that it was time for him to face reality.
"The adults, the little ones are willing to confess. The impostor of the villagers is a small thing, the little son is a good gambler, and owes a lot of money to the gambling house, so someone offered a low price to let people repair the ditch instead of them, and when the two sides came to the door, the small one asked them to give the small benefit and then responded to the matter. ”
Listening to Village Chief Huang's sudden confession, Gu Jinxiu knew that Gao Xiancheng would avoid prison again this time.
But why did Village Chief Huang say this, she didn't believe that the upright Village Chief Huang would do such a thing.
Gu Jinxiu was just about to open his mouth to plead for him, when he heard Li Mojin's voice:
"Village Chief Huang, this story of yours is very exciting, but there is another story here in this official."
Gu Jinxiu, who originally thought that Gao County was fine, looked at Li Mojin with bright eyes, looking forward to a turn for the better.
Village Chief Huang was silent again, as if it was not him who had just spoken.
Seeing this, Li Mojin didn't want to delay any longer, "Since you don't want to say it, then the official will ask your son to come and say." ”
Not long after, a man dressed in sackcloth walked into the lobby.
Gu Jinxiu looked at the person who came, this person looked very similar to Village Chief Huang, his eyes were clear, and he was upright, Gu Jinxiu didn't believe that he was a good gambler.
However, Gu Jinxiu was wrong, this person was not the eldest son of Village Chief Huang, but his youngest son.
"Dad, you're carrying too much, it's time to throw away those responsibilities that don't belong to you at all." Why did the open and secret struggle between the Zhao and Huang families let his father bear it.
The words of persuasion made Village Chief Huang's eyes move, and in the blink of an eye, there was no joy on his face, and he only said:
"You don't have to say it anymore, I did it, and I'm willing to confess."
Seeing that persuasion had no effect, Gu Jinxiu pursed her lips, quite disgusted.
Li Mojin, who had been paying attention to Gu Jinxiu, saw that she showed such a look to this person, and curled the corners of his lips and ordered: "Huang Xiucai, tell me what you know." ”
Huang Xiucai said: "The student's brother is really good at gambling, and he wanders around the gambling house all day long, but somehow he offended the little son of the Huang family, and he was pulled into the scam of the gambling house, and he owed about three hundred taels at once." When the thugs in the gambling house were about to cut off my brother's hands and feet, the Huang family steward came, said a few words to my father, and helped my brother return the silver. I later found out that it was a deal that made my dad agree to the deal where the three of them came to build the ditch by impersonating someone else. ”
This is all related to the Huang family, Gu Jinxiu felt that this matter was getting more and more complicated, and thought about when this would be over.
Gao Xiancheng saw that Huang Xiucai said something unfavorable to the Huang family, and hurriedly asked:
"Huang Xiucai must have evidence for saying this, otherwise the official will not let you go easily."
In the face of Gao Xiancheng's threat, he was not afraid, Huang Xiucai said: "Although I have no evidence, I think the performance of the Zhao and Huang families in the village is obvious to all." ”
Li Mojin instructed: "In this case, someone will take the head of the Huang village and the three substitutes into custody, and tomorrow the Huang family will be brought in for retrial and withdrawn." ”
With that, Li Mojin got up and walked to the backyard.
After a case came down, it was already too late, Gu Jinxiu didn't stay long, left the county government and rushed home.
