Chapter 13 The Trial Begins in Court
"I will bear all the losses." Thirteen said apologetically.
Yang Xianling nodded with a smile at Thirteen when he heard this, and said: "The girl has a heart, but this official came this time, this is the second time, and the main thing is to find out the cause of the fire in the inn." The girl came out of the inn, and she may know a little bit, so she had to ask the girl to go to the county office. ”
"That's as it should be." Thirteen nodded in agreement.
Yang County Ling stroked his beard, and he was very fond of Thirteen's humility and humility.
"All the people present who were related to the inn went back to the county office with the official in order to find out the cause of the fire in the inn." Yang Xianling turned to speak aloud to the people around him.
Although Yang County Ling is old, he is very neat in running errands. In a short time, everyone who had escaped from the inn was gathered, and there were a total of twenty-five people who were still unconscious. After repeatedly confirming that nothing was missed, Fang led everyone back to the county office, and the officers and soldiers who came with him were left behind to extinguish the fire.
At this time, the east is white, and the sky is just bright.
When he arrived at the county office, Yang County Ling was not in a hurry to go to the court to handle the case. He was very sympathetic to the rest and recuperation of the people, and then provided medicine to the wounded to bandage and treat their injuries.
And let his wife take Thirteen to change clothes.
At first sight, he saw that Thirteen was wet all over his body. Even a big man can't stand it, let alone a girl who seems to be only fifteen or sixteen years old?
The daughter's body is already delicate, so she has suffered for so long, and she can't fall into the root of the disease?
Thinking of it, Yang County Ling instructed the kitchen to boil an extra bowl of ginger water.
After Yang Xianling had his eldest son, he was looking forward to getting another girl and making a pair of "good" sons. But who knew that rebirth was still a son, and Mrs. County Ling didn't dare to raise it again, for fear that she would be a stinky boy again.
For this reason, he always felt some regrets in his heart.
Anyway, he couldn't say the reason, and he looked at the thirteen poles in his eyes. Although, when he saw Thirteen, Thirteen was embarrassed, and his face was so smoked that he couldn't see his facial features clearly. But he just has a crush on Thirteen.
Perhaps as you get older, you can't help but have a love for the humble and polite juniors.
After arranging everything, Yang County Ling was not idle. He walked out of the county office alone and in the early morning dew, and hurried in the direction of the inn.
Until noon, everyone casually ate two mouthfuls of steamed buns in the county office, and Yang County Ling appeared in official uniforms and went to court to handle the case.
At this time, the outside of the county government has been surrounded by people who came to see the excitement.
And, Thirteen took Peaches, Uncle Jiu, Xie Xiaoyao and Xie Yingying out of the left side of the Yang County Order one after another, and came to the hall together.
Thirteen was wearing the old clothes of Mrs. Yang County Ling when she was not married, and the color and style of the clothes were already out of fashion, but when she wore them on Thirteen, she felt very attractive.
Yang Xianling glanced at Thirteen and nodded slightly. Thirteen smiled back at him.
As for the appearance of the thirteenth, Yang County Ling didn't feel too much. In his opinion, good-looking skins are the same, and people are precious and contain treasures.
And Xie Xiaoyao took Xie Yingying to the fifteen people and stood opposite the thirteen and thirteen.
As soon as he came in, he had been secretly looking at Thirteen, and he really couldn't figure out why Thirteen could easily connect him with three punches. Even if he thinks that Thirteen may really have an adventure, he can't say.
If he got that adventure in his hands, wouldn't the leader of the martial arts alliance be him?
As for the sudden extra flower mark between the thirteen foreheads, he didn't pay much attention to it. After all, all the little girls nowadays love stinky beauty, and when they are bored, they draw different marks on their foreheads to decorate themselves.
Even his own precious daughter is no exception.
After the five people stood still, another person came out on the right side of Yang County's order, which was the innkeeper - the shopkeeper Wang.
The inn was reduced to ruins overnight, and the shopkeeper Wang looked more than ten years old at this time, and even his upright back was hunched up.
He came to the bottom of the hall, and now he was in the middle.
At this time, there were twenty-nine people in the hall.
When Yang County Ling saw that everyone had arrived, he slapped the shocking wood and said loudly: "Open the court for trial!" What are the things of the people in the hall, please come with us. ”
As soon as these words came out, the central king shopkeeper knelt down and said: "Hui Qingtian master, Caomin's surname is Wang, and he is the owner of the Furong Inn, and everyone calls me 'Wang Shopkeeper' on weekdays." Today, I came to ask the eldest master to make decisions for the grass people and find out the causes and consequences of the fire in the inn. ”
The shopkeeper Wang mentioned that the inn was already full of tears.
"Be clear." Yang County Commander said to him.
"Here's what happened: Yesterday on the evening of April 20, it was the beginning of the day when the grass people took care of all the affairs of the inn, and they wanted to sleep with six men, but they happened to receive a message from home, saying that their daughter-in-law was about to give birth, and let the grass people go home. The grass people told the men to pay attention at night, and not to neglect the guests staying in the inn. Then, I hurriedly returned to my temporary rented home on South Street. At the end of the year, he received a summons from the neighbors, saying that the inn was on fire and suffered heavy losses. The grass people rushed to the inn and found that not only was the inn on fire, but many people were burned to death inside. Shopkeeper Wang said carefully, for fear of missing a half.
"If you're an innkeeper, why do you need to rent a temporary house on South Street?" Yang County Ling asked.
The shopkeeper replied: "Back to the eldest master, this inn was newly taken over by the grass people, and it was redecorated again, and the original rooms on the first floor were all changed into guest rooms. In this way, there are three types of rooms, "heaven, earth, and people", and their prices vary in turn. There were only two rooms left next to the kitchen, and on weekdays, I ate and lived with six guys, but it was barely enough. Originally, after the end of the 'Ten Thousand Flowers Meeting', I found someone to start emptying out the empty space behind the inn that was piled up with sundries, and built a few more rooms behind it, which were used as living rooms, warehouses and miscellaneous storage. Finally, make a fence and use this as the backyard of the inn. ”
"Where are those six guys now?" Yang County Ling asked again.
"The six men never escaped from the inn, and all of them died in the flames." Shopkeeper Wang couldn't stop crying, kowtowed to Yang County Ling and said, "I still hope that the eldest master will be the master of the grass people!" ”
When the onlookers heard this, they all sighed that the king's shopkeeper had a great life and good luck. Otherwise, this person who died in the sea of fire may be counted as one of them.
"Do you know these people?"
"Acquaintance, all guests who stayed at the inn that night. There were more than 40 people staying that night, and when the grass people rushed to the inn, they saw only 28 of them, and the rest were probably all killed. The shopkeeper said.
Yang Xian Ling stroked his beard when he heard this, nodded and expressed his understanding. After getting to know all the people in the hall except for the king's treasurer, he separated those who had been in a coma and who had now awakened. Let them stand with the people who came to see the excitement.
The reason is very simple, they are unconscious from beginning to end, and their memories are still stuck before they go to sleep, even if they are tortured to extract confessions, they can't ask why.
