Chapter 19: Ma Buxiao begs for mercy
"I am an orphan and have no name, but everyone calls me Cathead," said the young man in patched clothes, nervously.
For this poor man, this is the first time he has faced a big man who seems to him so supreme! How not to be nervous and panicked!
"Cat's head, this name is interesting, hahaha" Runzhi smiled lightly, "How did the dishes taste for lunch today?" ”
"Back to adults, this is the most beneficial thing that villains have eaten since they were children, it's like a beggar suddenly wearing a dragon robe and sitting on a dragon chair!"
"Bold minion, you are so bad, do you know that you have committed a capital crime with these words!" Runzhi hadn't responded yet, and Lao Zhong on the side couldn't help it when he heard this.
"You might as well go down first", Runzhi waved his palm at Lao Zhong.
Lao Zhong glared at the cat's head fiercely, "Yes, my lord!" ”
In Lao Zhong's experience, if he said such a sentence in front of other officials, this dog slave would have been cut off long ago, even if he had ten heads.
So Lao Zhong was very puzzled by Runzhi's tolerance at the moment, maybe this is the reason why Lord Tian is so well received by the people in the market, Lao Zhong thought in his heart, and then retreated with a gloomy face.
"I heard that you have something important to tell the official, what is the matter" Runzhi deliberately avoided what the cat said wrongly, after all, in the eyes of a person with absolute control, all this is under control.
"My lord, we were forced by Ma's mother to come to the court to make perjury that Young Master Ma had been at home and had never gone out!" The cat head continued, "I am so grateful to the adults today, and I can't bear to deceive the adults anymore, and I am willing to testify in court, explain to everyone that this letter was not signed by us, and participate in reporting my young master, not only raped this woman, but also once privately raped many poor women in the cardamom years, and the flower thief case that has been difficult to crack a while ago was also done by my young master!" We have seen it with our own eyes! ”
"I heard that you want to enter my mansion, but is there such a thing?" , Runzhi raised his head and said while playing with two golden balls made of gold in his hand.
"Back to my lord, this matter is true, if we don't obey his order, and come forward to report the young master, our lives will definitely not be guaranteed, so we hope to be able to enter the adult's mansion, I hope the adult agrees, otherwise we will die without a place to be buried" When the cat said this, tears were already rolling in his eyes, like a cat and dog that was about to die, begging for the master's treatment.
"In this way, from today on, you will listen to it in this mansion, and this official will let the housekeeper pay the monthly silver on time" Runzhi said, every word is categorical, for the cat, every word can save a life.
In their opinion, he instantly became a minion who was one level higher than all the minions in Kyushu, and he was no longer the minion who could be bullied by anyone in the past!
Under the yamen, the officials were listed, and the soldiers maintained order and served as guards on the periphery.
"Ascension"
"Will... Take...
"Bringing the Prisoner to Court"
"Take the Plaintiff to Court"
"Bringing Witnesses to Court"
This time, Runzhi breathed one after another, and actually begged to call all the relevant individuals up!
The officials of the state government were naturally dumbfounded, but since the governor of the two provinces, Lord Tian Wen Jingtian, was in charge of the trial, how could he allow others to interfere, not to mention that Lord Tian Wen Jingtian could be said to be the same in the imperial court.
Therefore, no matter how Runzhi is tried, it will definitely be called a classic, and no matter what the result is, it will be used as a typical case by various state governments in the future trial of similar cases.
"Cat, tell me everything you know", the other witnesses waited for the summons in the hall for the time being, and every time Runzhi issued an order, he threw a token in front of him, and the left and right officials went down to pick it up.
The cat head then repeated the words he had just said to Runzhi with some details and again.
People suddenly became even more disgusted with this invincible little demon king!
"Such a person deserves to die, and he should be immediately pronounced dead!"
"Yes, it's disgusting! I didn't even let go of the little girl! ”
"Indeed, it's just a beast, such a beast should be divided by five horses!"
"We people surnamed Ma feel ashamed of such a person, it's just a complete shame! Is this worthy of the ancestors? ”
"Don't worry, our Ma clan has decided to expel this person's name from the clan ancestral hall!"
"Wasn't his father a wealthy local man? How is it possible for your clan to expel the son of a rich man from the ancestral hall! ”
"Hahaha, this old fox has also been arrested! It's said that it was a violent rent collection."
In Yamen, the common people discussed this case, and everyone thought that this Ma Buxiao was too hateful and should be sentenced to death immediately.
"Ma's father and son stay, and the other cadres all retreat!" Runzhi issued an order, and except for the Ma father and son, the others went to the gate of the yamen to wait for the verdict.
"Ma father and son, you are guilty!" Runzhi said sharply.
"The grass people are guilty, and the grass people admit their guilt!" The rich man of the horse is a huge slippery, seeing so much evidence, and having his own servants come out to testify for the other party, he knows that this time there is no chance to escape.
"My lord, the lower official thinks that although the rich man is wrong to violently collect rent, it is also excusable, please take it lightly", an official from a nearby state government tried to intercede for him.
"Breaking the legs of the father of the Qin family, beating his mother to the point of being covered in blood, temporarily increasing the rent at three times the price, and destroying hundreds of families, such a person is simply intolerable, I hope you don't have to intercede for him!" Runzhi said very sternly, obviously Runzhi had asked people to investigate carefully in private.
"Your Excellency is wise, these people must be severely punished to show the majesty of my Qing Dynasty law!" Seeing this, the other state officials also echoed this, and it was obvious that the career of the person who proposed for leniency was henceforth, and the other officials thought silently in their hearts, secretly glad that they had not come out.
"Adults spare their lives, adults spare their lives", seeing such a situation, Ma Buxiao, who had always been arrogant before, suddenly understood, if this continued, he had to be immediately pushed out and beheaded, so his attitude took a 180-degree turn.
