Chapter 872: Facing the Court
The Fang family is unrelenting, looking at her like that, if she doesn't see Siqi today, she won't leave, and Lin Changyuan can't easily let his daughter come out to see her.
My daughter didn't do anything wrong, why did she let her daughter come out and show up just because she said so?
Everyone also expressed their understanding, if Miss Lin came out at this time, even if this matter was fake, people would point fingers behind her back in the future, which was really bad for her.
After a while, the yamen actually came, where could the Fang family come by himself, her brother is the county master, who is in charge of the people here, if there is such a big thing, if you don't let your brother come forward, who else will come forward?
Before going out, he had already asked people to go to the county office to tell Fang Zhixian, and Fang Zhixian pondered at home for a long time, but he still decided to take care of this matter.
The prefect warned him before, not to provoke Tongfulou, and he also listened, after all, it was a trivial matter before, that is, Tongfulou robbed the business of Jinlou, Zhang Cheng wanted someone else's girl, and others didn't agree, these things can be endured, and I will talk about it later.
But this time it's different, his nephew took his life, and if he doesn't care about being an uncle, then he can't talk about it.
First, he also felt very sorry for Zhang Cheng, and secondly, he was still counting on making money from the Zhang family, if Zhang Tianlai went home and knew that his son was gone, and he, who was an uncle, ignored it, he would inevitably have a pimple in his heart, and the money he would give him in the future would be less, even if it was for his own consideration, he had to take care of this matter, and after thinking about it, so he brought someone to Tongfu Building at this time.
Seeing that there was a commotion outside, Fang Zhixian directly asked the officials to separate the surrounding people, leaving only the Fang family, Lin Changyuan and others standing in the middle.
Seeing Fang Zhixian coming, Fang's immediately knelt down towards him, "The eldest lord of Zhixian wants to be the master of the people's women, this is the second owner of Tongfulou, his daughter entered the Zhang Mansion and became my son's concubine, but it killed my son and ran away in the middle of the night, I came to them today to ask for someone, isn't it too much?" But they didn't admit it, they just didn't hand it over, and asked the county lord to make the decision for the people's women. ”
Lin Changyuan knew that the situation was not good when he saw the Yamen coming, and he originally wanted to just stand up to it, it would be best if he could not let Siqi come out, but at this time, Fang Zhixian came, and he had to come forward no matter what, and if he went to court, he had to hand over the people.
He clenched his fists tightly, eager to press the Fang family to the ground and beat him at this moment, he had never beaten a woman in his life, but this woman was indeed hateful, what did they do, they actually provoked the Zhang family, and also caused the big mess behind.
After Fang Zhixian heard this, he directly ordered Lin Changyuan to hand over the people, and of course Lin Changyuan had to explain to his daughter, saying that his daughter stayed at home all night and never came out, and she was still at home at this time.
Fang Zhixian said, "Right and wrong, the official has his own distinction, after all, it is a life lawsuit, the official can't ignore it, all of you must go back to the county government with the official, what is going on, let's investigate slowly, we must find out." ”
Zhang Cheng is gone anyway, the Fang family is making it clear that she wants to make a big deal about it, what else can she be afraid of, her son is gone, lose face, shame, if she doesn't let the girl of the Lin family accompany the funeral, she can't swallow this breath no matter what.
Even if Xiaofuzi said that the person who ran out was not Lin Siqi, she also identified the Lin family and must find the Lin family to get it back.
What if that person wasn't her? If she hadn't kept refusing, how could Cheng'er have fallen ill, and how could she have come up with such an idea? So it's still her fault.
In this way, Lin Changyuan and his wife must take Siqi to the court, summoned by the yamen, can they not go? bar
If you really don't go, this is contempt of the court, and it is unjustifiable.
Jiang took Song Yunxin to the Lin family's small courtyard, and the Xuan family was also at home at this time, and when the official messenger of the yamen came, the Jiang family, the Xuan family and Song Yunxin all accompanied Siqi to the yamen.
Today is really a big deal, some people heard the news and went out to say it, and when they saw people, they spread it, and soon many people already knew about it.
Zhang Cheng is not a good thing, some sons usually have dealings with him, but they actually hate him very much, not to mention ordinary people, almost all of them hate him to the bone.
Knowing that he was dead, everyone was very happy, but they didn't show it much, and they knew that the Zhang family was going to confront the second owner of Tongfulou in court, as long as they were free, they ran to see the excitement, for fear of missing it.
This thing is good-looking, not to mention what the matter is, on this side is the Zhang family, which has a relationship with the county yamen, on the other side is the second owner of Tongfulou, and the Song family is the in-laws, both of which have some power, and I don't know how this case will be judged in the end.
The people related to the case all arrived at the court, Si Qi knelt under the hall and did not speak, when the Fang clan saw her, he was about to rush up and choke her neck.
Because she was the sister of the county magistrate, the officials on the side just didn't see it, and they didn't step forward to stop it at all.
How could Lin Changyuan watch his daughter being bullied, the Fang clan had just passed, and he immediately kicked the Fang clan away to protect his daughter.
The Fang clan fell to the ground, crying and making trouble, at this time, the officials would not be left alone, and they all wanted to fight Lin Changyuan.
After all, it was in the court, and it was not beneficial for him to beat people at this time, so Lin Changyuan endured it and was beaten a few times by them.
After this incident, the people present saw clearly that this county government was really surnamed Fang, and this time it must be towards the Zhang family.
Jiang and Song Yunxin were also standing outside, and some people in the crowd saw them and consciously stayed away from them, so that the noble ladies of big families and ordinary people would subconsciously leave.
The Song family has always been idle about things, and many people said in private, I don't know if the Song family will take care of it this time.
Although the Song family is a big family, the Jiang family is just a woman, and her maiden family is doing business, and there is no officialdom to do it, even if you have money, what can you help? I still have to be here with Master Song.
After being promoted, Fang Zhixian did a routine business and asked the Fang family to tell the matter as it was, of course the Fang family added fuel and vinegar, and insisted that it was the Lin family themselves who sent the girl into the Zhang family.
And Zhang Cheng was killed by Lin Siqi, and after killing someone, Lin Siqi ran away and kept hiding in her mother's house, if it wasn't for the government, she wouldn't have come out.
