Chapter 40: Punish serious crimes
Press ...... According to the law, it should be beheaded. ”
The county magistrate was already frightened, and when he saw Peng Yue looking at him with a fierce face, he was afraid that he would do it to himself again, so his tongue trembled and he said busily.
"Your Excellency!"
The evil chap was stunned for a moment, and then shouted out in a lost voice.
He was here to protect your lords!
He was here to share the worries of adults!
Originally, in order to protect the reputation of the yamen, he could not let the petty people despise the court at will!
But he didn't want to abandon him so happily.
"Hear that? Seeing that you are also a bad person like this, but you ignore the laws and regulations to commit murder in court, if it weren't for Peng's some kung fu, I'm afraid that at this moment, I would have already become a dead soul under the knife! ”
Peng Yue said angrily, a pair of sharp eyes shot out a cold light, and the hand holding the poor head increased its strength, and the sound of broken bones came.
His head hurt, but he gritted his teeth and didn't say a word.
Xu Wei also knew that he couldn't save his life at this moment, and his gaze at Peng Yue gradually dissipated.
"My lord, I can't imagine that you are an official like this, Peng really saw it today, not only favoring this profiteer, but also not listening to the confession of witnesses to abuse the plaintiff's sentence!"
Peng Yue no longer looked at the poor head who had lost his soul, threw him to the ground, turned to the county official, and said in a contemptuous tone.
The county magistrate had not yet fully recovered from Fang Cai's fright, and he heard Peng Yue accuse himself like this, for fear that he would go to Zhizhou to complain, so he got up and fell down from the chair in a trembling manner, and crawled over to hug Peng Yue's legs.
"Mr. Peng, Mr. Peng, the lower official knew that he was wrong, it was the lower official who was confused for a while, and mistakenly believed the slander, and the lower official will never dare to make a decision without checking the facts in the future!"
"But, but the injury on the face of the shopkeeper Li was caused by this poor blow, and the lower official did not give the order when he went down......"
Before the county magistrate's words fell, the woman who had sprinkled before saw that someone was in charge, so she opened her voice and said, "Who said no?" I've heard it with my own ears and seen it with my own eyes! This county order throws the life and death sign to the ground! ”
Then the people who were on their knees chimed in.
"That's it, we've all seen it!"
"My lord is indiscriminate, because Shopkeeper Li said two big truths, he was annoyed and angry!"
"Yes, we have all seen it, the collusion between officials and businessmen!"
Everybody's spitting.
The county magistrate had long forgotten that it was indeed his own order because of excessive fear, and after this reminder from everyone, he remembered it again, his body trembled even more, and the hand holding Peng Yue's thigh tightened.
"Yes, yes, it's the lower official's bad record, it's the order of the lower official, the lower official will no longer dare, the lower official will never dare to throw the life and death sign in the future, and please ask Mr. Peng and the shopkeeper Li not to remember the villain, spare the lower official this time!"
The county magistrate was still pleading without dignity, and Peng Yue glanced at Li Yingyun, whose face was red and swollen, distressedly.
Li Yingyun shook his head at him lightly and motioned for him to let go of the county order.
Seeing this, Peng Yue was even more distressed, but remembering that she still had some scruples, she did not force a decision, but said to the county order: "My lord, since Peng is not injured, you can not pursue the adult's laissez-faire, but this matter was originally caused by Shopkeeper Li and Shopkeeper Hong, why don't you ask Shopkeeper Li if he is willing to give up the investigation?" ”
"Yes, yes."
When the county magistrate heard this, he turned his head to Li Yingyun again, but his feet were so soft that he still knelt on the ground: "Li, the shopkeeper Li, is the official who has been derelict in his duties for a while, I thought that Hong Baofang had been a businessman for many years, and he would not deceive the official, so I believed Hong Baofang without noticing." ”
"In the future, this official will look at the facts, enforce the law impartially, and never let the people suffer injustices again......
The county magistrate's appearance of smiling with Li Yingyun was a little disgusting.
At this moment, he still blamed the fault on Shopkeeper Hong and the errone, as if he had only one negligence.
Li Yingyun had a sneer on the corner of his mouth, this county official will definitely be rectified in the future!
Otherwise, this whole county will not be peaceful!
But that's a matter for the future, and now, Li Yingyun knows that it is the Hong shopkeeper who should deal with the rampant market.
The loss of the shopkeeper Hong and the evil difference is equivalent to abolishing an arm of the county official.
"The adults are so introspective, the people don't dare not understand, but I ask the adults to return me justice, and also return the innocence of this kind visitor, at this moment the people in the public court are all witnesses, and the adults are tired of moving to my shop to see in person, those smashed goods and signboards are physical evidence, and please see it!"
Li Yingyun knelt down again, and was even more sincere.
"Thank you for being magnanimous and not bothering with the official," the county magistrate heard this, and put down a stone in his heart, and at this moment his waist was also straight, and he actually stood up and ordered the officials, "Come, put this poor head in prison, and wait for the official to come back and try it in person!" ”
"For the rest, go to the scene with the official to take a look, if it is really as the shopkeeper Li said, Hong Baofang, the official will treat you for your serious crimes!"
After the words fell, the county official straightened the black gauze hat on his head and walked out with his hands behind his back.
It's just that because his hat was scratched by Peng Yue, although the master pulled out the knife for him and put it on, it still looked funny.
Li Yingyun also got up and walked out with the county official, and only bowed his head and explained to him when he passed by Xiao Wu's side.
Peng Yue was afraid that something would go wrong, so he walked with the shopkeeper Hong.
The shopkeeper of Na Hong saw Peng Yue's methods, and he was already scared at this moment.
Although he has a lot of benefits to the county officials on weekdays, and he is used to being domineering in the city, but now he sees that the county officials don't dare to make a mistake in front of Peng Yue, and he is very worried.
This Peng Yue is obviously towards Li Yingyun.
……
Li Kee Seafood Shop.
Xiao Si sat on the threshold of the shop with his head drooped.
Because Li Yingyun has been gone for too long, Xiao Wu has not come back, and the seafood all over the ground is on the ground, all of them are valuable, he is really distressed when he sees it, but Li Yingyun ordered him to protect the scene, and he didn't dare not listen.
The more I thought about it, the more angry I became, so I hung my head and sulked with myself alone.
"Little Four!"
Xiao Wu, who was hiding in the crowd, ran to pat Xiao Si on the shoulder first.
When Xiao Si saw that Xiao Wu was back, and saw his shopkeeper coming behind the county official, he hurriedly stood up, and the expression on his face was a little lighter.
"You're back, are you okay?"
"No, the county official came to take a look at the situation of our shop, so that he could convict the shopkeeper of Nahong, and I will talk to you in detail later, this county official is still the shopkeeper!"
"What?"
Xiao Si was shocked for a while.
"After a while, the shopkeeper will give you a look, and you will cry, understand?"
Xiao Wu didn't talk to Xiao Si about the matter in court, but whispered a word of advice.
Before Xiao Si could respond, the county magistrate had already led a group of people to come to him.
Li Yingyun raised his chin at Xiao Si, Xiao Si understood, and immediately cried again: "Adult! O adults! Master Qingtian, you're here! Look at this good shop, just because of the conscience of the shopkeeper of my house, it attracted the jealousy of the shopkeeper Hong, and it was smashed like this! ”
"The grass people blocked it in every possible way, and they were almost beaten by the shopkeeper Hong! My lord, the grass people are guarding here, but half of the shop has not moved, it is all the original appearance of the shopkeeper Hong! My lord, call the shots! ”
"Hong Bao Fang! Did you really do that? ”
The county official came over and saw that the shop was in a mess, and when he heard Xiao Si crying like this, he was irritable, and immediately turned around and scolded the shopkeeper Hong, and sprinkled his anger on the shopkeeper Hong.
Shopkeeper Hong was taken aback, but now that the human and material evidence is there, he can no longer deny it.
In fact, when the county magistrate said that he wanted to come to inspect the scene in person, he wanted to admit the charge, but he couldn't say it for a while, and now it is even more embarrassing for more people to see him in public.
"Say!"
"Yes, it was done by the grass people, the grass people should die, the grass people were blindfolded for a while......"
As he spoke, Shopkeeper Hong slapped himself.
"It's you! I didn't believe it at first, you have been doing business in the city for many years, and I have never heard of your pickles! Even the monthly tax payment is a lot of money, but I don't want you to be a deceitful goods! ”
The county magistrate accused.
Originally, I saw the shopkeeper Hong making trouble, and now I have passed by Li Ji's shop, all of them looked at the shopkeeper Hong in a circle, everyone was pitted by the high-priced goods of the shopkeeper Hong but had to go to his house to buy goods, and they all spit on him.
"This shopkeeper Hong is not even willing to give away a ribbon, and if he buys a large amount of goods, he has to bundle them and bring them back, and he will spend a penny to buy them!"
"There are so many grocery stores in the city, he sells the most expensive here, and he has the most complete where he is, and the whole family has to drink porridge for three days to buy one thing!"
"My father and mother also opened a grocery store two years ago, so he was run to death, and today my family still owes three taels of silver to the neighbor, and I have to go to his shop to buy things!"
“……”
There were all the sounds of abuse all around, and where did the shopkeeper Hong dare to raise his head, but when he lowered his head, his eyes shot out of anger and humiliation.
This account, sooner or later, it will have to be settled with Li Yingyun!
And that Peng Yue, God knows where a showman is worthy of being so endured by a dignified county official?
Rao is that Peng Yue has some noble background, and he Hong Baofang will definitely pull him off the horse, so that they can know who is the first-class boss here!
And today, these mobs dare to fall into the ground, sooner or later, one day he will sell the goods at a higher price, don't say buy one thing and drink gruel for three days, next time, he will ask these people to drink half a month's water!
Thinking about it, the hand that was shrunk in the long sleeve clenched.
"Go back to the Yamen!"
The county magistrate also felt panicked at the moment, no matter how cheeky Rao was on weekdays, no matter how prey the people were, now that he was in a state of public anger, and Peng Yue was supervising him, he couldn't be angry, so he had to wave his hand to the yamen.
He originally wanted to favor Shopkeeper Hong, but Shopkeeper Hong was too unpopular, and now he came out to listen to more people's accusations against him, but this is slapping him in the face of the county official one by one!
In this way, he couldn't listen to it anymore and hurried back to the court.
"This official has already seen Li Ji's shop, and it was really smashed! Hong Baofang, this official thinks you are a good party, but I can't imagine that you have done such a bad thing! ”
The county magistrate slapped the shocked wood and said angrily.
"It's all up to you!"
Shopkeeper Hong didn't dare to be cunning, and knelt on the ground with a toad-like "plop", and his hands were above his head.
