Village Chief Sun didn't expect that he had just listened to the opinions of the villagers and went to the vegetable garden to ask for an explanation. But in the end, this group of people turned out to be like crazy demons, directly smashed open the gate of the house, and snatched a lot of things in the garden.

He always felt that he was the head of a village, and he was usually quite useful when he spoke. But at that time, no matter how loudly he stopped in the crowd, no one listened to him.

Village Chief Sun felt very depressed, and even began to doubt his life.

As he sat on the steps of his yard, stunned, a young man walked in. It turned out that the other party was Li Er, the steward of the vegetable garden.

Village Chief Sun knew that this Li Er had always had a gentle temperament, and as long as he explained it to him, he would definitely not blame himself.

"Steward Li, Yang Laohan died in vain, but the yamen in the capital couldn't find the murderer for a long time. The villagers were indignant for a while, and they wanted to go to the vegetable garden to ask for explanations, and I understood everyone's feelings, so I let them go. But later...... It's not something I can stop! We didn't have anything at home! Village Chief Sun hurriedly stood up and explained.

I saw Li Er on the other side showing a smile, and it was no different from usual, but the smile made Village Chief Sun's back cold.

"I'm here to inform Village Chief Sun that I have reported the loss of the vegetable garden to the Yamen of the capital. Since the villagers want to ask for an explanation, it is better to let the Beijing Yamen give the villagers an explanation. He said gently, the tone seemed to be saying words of forgiveness, but the content of the words made Village Chief Sun want to cry without tears.

He didn't know how Li Er left, and by the time he reacted, he couldn't find Li Er outside the door.

Village Chief Sun had no choice but to cry with a sad face, call his son, and go to find someone to ask them to return the things from house to house.

But this group of people had never seen such a delicate thing in their lives, either they said that they wanted to stay at home as a family heirloom, or they said that they had already gone to the pawnshop to exchange for silver.

In short, they all clutched it, unwilling to spit out what they had swallowed.

Jing Zhaoyin felt that he had never seen so many people standing in the public court in his life.

Although the number of people in this village is small, only one person from each household comes, and the public hall is also full.

When asked why he broke into the vegetable garden and robbed other people's things, the whole court was like a pot of boiling water.

"They killed Yang Laohan, don't you want us an explanation?"

"That's it, Yang Laohan has a life, isn't it worth these things?"

……

Jing Zhaoyin's ears were buzzing with noise, and he slammed the startling wood hard, causing the villagers to quiet down suddenly.

He said in a deep voice, trying to make his voice sound more majestic: "There is no evidence that Yang Laohan's death was done by the vegetable garden. What are you doing this? You're doing this as a bandit! ”

"Lord Qingtian, we have been wronged! If you don't just take a few things from them, how can you be considered a robber? I don't know who was the first to plop down and kneel, banging his head with a bang.

Then the other people around him did the same, and the public hall suddenly cried and howled.

"Even their vegetable garden occupies half of the land in our village. Neighbors in the village, whose things can't be borrowed? How can we be said to be robbers! ”

"Old man Yang died in vain, he is an old man, who can he make enemies with? It must be the county lord, who says that you dignitaries don't treat our cheap lives as human lives! It must have been her who secretly caught up with Yang Laohan and beat people to death! ”

……

In the end, Jing Zhaoyin did not finish the trial and left his seat angrily.

With his hands behind his back, he strode to the back hall, then took off his black gauze hat and slammed it on the table: "Diao Min, a group of Diao Min!" ”

The bookkeeper came in after him, trying to calm the villagers. As a result, like hungry wolves that saw meat, they all pounced on them, and the master turned around and left.

It wasn't until he walked to the back hall that he couldn't hear the voices of the group of people, and he felt a dull pain in his eardrums.

"Don't be angry, sir!" The chief bookkeeper sighed, "Have we seen few people like this before?" ”

He has been by Jing Zhaoyin's side for decades, and he has followed Jing Zhaoyin all the way, from a sesame petty official to the present.

I don't know how many people I have seen during this period, but after coming to the capital over the years, the people near Gyeonggi are so rich that they will not be like today's group of people, and there is no reason to talk about it.

Jing Zhaoyin also sighed, but his mood calmed down a little: "Yes, it has been decades since I saw it." However, in the past few years, I have been in the capital, and I have been used to living a comfortable life, and I have forgotten about the previous things for a while. ”

The chief bookkeeper smiled and handed Jing Zhaoyin tea and said, "There is good news and bad news here for my subordinates. I don't know which one adults want to hear first? ”

Jing Zhaoyin rubbed his temples that were jumping for a while, and picked one at random: "Then let's listen to the good news first." ”

"The good news is that Master Jiang from the military department just now came and gave us a useful clue." The master bookkeeper took out a piece of copper inlaid on the wheel of the carriage from his sleeve and put it on the table in front of Jing Zhaoyin.
