Chapter 140: Receiving the Tao and Helping Much
() As soon as he raised his head, he straightened his spirit: "Nothing, mother, don't worry, it's just that some church affairs are a little difficult to solve." ”
The old woman leaned out and swept a familiar petite figure, and the excitement in her heart came back to her heart: "It seems to be fun." ”
The county official's tone was helpless: "Niang ......" remembered the way she ran out to cry and laugh without permission before, and she didn't know what to say, "They are not as simple as you think." ”
"I know it. But there are also good people, aren't they? Look at the girl outside, she looks righteous and upright, and the person opposite has a rainy and violent face, good and bad, this still has to be entangled for so long? How the hell did you decide the case? Later, this mother doubted her son's ability.
The county official supports her forehead, why is a woman so charming......? With so many things to do in front of her, and two people with mysterious identities protecting her, she ended up in a dilemma.
On the rich man's side, he has indeed been a little restless over the years, and he will give him some thin noodles anyway. It's really a bit unexpected today, and I was brought in by a girl and capsized once.
"Huh?" The county magistrate's shoulders moved.
"Mother, I'll take care of it, don't worry." The county magistrate cheered up, although this mother is not very reliable, she still cares about him at a critical time.
"No, what do you say. I want to say, the girl outside is the one who helped me last time. The old woman smiled, like a child who played tricks on others' success.
The county magistrate stood up suddenly, and pointed his hand outward: "That girl? That girl who keeps talking?! ”
The old woman nodded weakly and said softly, "That'...... I'm going first?! I won't bother you. But you have to remember that that is my benefactor. The last sentence was spoken by the old woman very ethereal, but it kept echoing in the county official's mind, like a mosquito buzzing incessantly.
The county magistrate was haggard: "I remember." "I can't be saved by anyone, and I was saved by that little witch who messed up the world, and I really dug a big hole for myself.
The old woman glanced at the girl with a smile and walked away happily.
But what can be done? Save your life, you can't turn your face.
"My lord, the housekeeper of the palace outside has asked to see you."
The county magistrate looked up impatiently: "Who, where is it?" "The county magistrate already had a choice in his heart, and he didn't take any housekeeper to heart.
"Backyard."
"No, no, no. I'm busy, get rid of it. "This person didn't come sooner or later, but when he knew the truth, he was destined to be unable to pump the oil.
Obviously, the person who reported it was surprised by his master's decision, but he quickly adjusted his emotions and turned him away according to the county official's wishes.
The palace steward who received the attitude of the county official at the first time left thoughtfully, could this be a signal? The butler felt that he had to leave a way out for himself.
After doing a good job in psychological construction, the county official walked into the court again, this time, his eyes were more determined, as if he had already stood in line. Such a thing, if it does not rely on relationships, but only on the so-called reasons, is simply nonsense.
After Wang Shunde saw the change in the county officials, he smiled calmly, and looked at Xia Ting with contempt in their eyes.
Gu Lin frowned and leaned sideways
Xia Ting's ear: "Wang Shunde just secretly went to give benefits?" ”
Xia Ting looked at the county official, and then looked at the changes before and after Wang Shunde, and secretly screamed in his heart, this county official has no bottom line in doing things, and it is very likely that he really confused things.
"Quite possibly. We're going to take it seriously, and everyone's needs are on us. Xia Ting glanced at Wang Shunde, and his emotions were not revealed.
They carry everyone's hope, and they can't afford to lose.
Xia Ting thought of Qiu Ye, he was in a deep state of embarrassment at the moment, and he couldn't find Uncle De for help, and besides, Qiu Ye had been away for so long, I don't know if it was enough to deterrent.
"Silence! Present the evidence. Xia Ting looked at every look of the county magistrate nervously, they submitted their own land deeds, as well as conversion letters, Uncle De was also present at that time, if she needed a witness, she could find Uncle De to testify. The human and physical evidence is clear, and the most worrying thing is the attitude of the county official.
After all, the evidence is as far as he can see, and he can't show it to others, and in the end, the power of the matter is in his hands, and whether he will be wronged depends on the behavior of the county official.
Widow Zhang's matter, she can be regarded as a small help, so I don't know if he sees it in his eyes.
"Die, it's too tender."
Xia Ting suppressed his anger, glared at him, and retorted in a low voice: "The result has not yet been decided." There is much help for the righteous, but little help for the unjust. Wang Shunde, you have to finish sooner or later. ”
At this time, Xia Ting's right hand was pinched, and she looked at her eldest brother and was comforted warmly.
"Ahem, the court is not a noisy place for you, it's greasy and crooked." When he said the latter sentence, the county magistrate secretly glared at Xia Ting and them, this dog food, it seems that some people don't like to eat it from ancient times to the present.
"Wang Shunde, you keep saying that it is natural for you to collect taxes, but the land deeds and conventions presented are real, what justification do you have?" The county official became serious, and the first thing he said was to question Wang Shunde.
The field looked at Wang Shunde.
Xia Ting was shocked in his heart, but he didn't expect that the county official would ask Wang Shunde questions first if he didn't play his cards according to common sense. Could it be that he is doing something to suppress first and then promote or something to whitewash Wang Shunde? Suspicious eyes looked at the county magistrate.
The county magistrate's heart was in a cold sweat, the girl's eyes were really not covered, she was young and fierce, didn't you see his obvious bias? Look, I immediately asked about the point that Wang Shunde couldn't answer.
Wang Shunde couldn't guess his thoughts, he firmly believed in the power of money and his ability to be a housekeeper. I thought it was the county official who was playing tricks, but he didn't think about any routines, and he didn't think deeply about the problem, so he opened his eyes and said nonsense: "My lord, it must be fake." Wang has never had an impression of what he has done, and I have no grudges or grudges with them, will I deliberately not be able to think about it and get myself here? ”
"Besides, Wang Mou and I don't lack so much money, so I let the people in the town see a joke. It was really the other party who deceived people too much, and he was forced to fight back helplessly. "Reversing right and wrong, he has done a lot over the years. When he said these words, he didn't look empty at all, and even had the joy of the villain's triumph.
With a bang, there was a loud bang, and the grocery store shopkeeper knelt straight on the ground and kowtowed to the county official to show his sincerity: "My lord, Wang Shunde is talking nonsense!" At the beginning, it was he who forced us to pay taxes, and he raised taxes again and again, and we were overwhelmed and resisted. There has never been a reason for him to levy taxes.
"Taxation should be a matter for the imperial court, and he is a rich man, relying on his own large number of people, rampant and domineering, and unfair.
Many shopkeepers also knelt outside together, testifying for Xia Ting together with the grocery store shopkeeper. After they were arrested, they were put in the outer courtyard, and only a few key people entered the inner court.
"This is not the time for witnesses, is it? These people just don't understand the rules, and just think that a large number of people can affect the wise decisions of adults? Wang Shunde slapped the sycophants, and looked upright, looking angry. Sometimes I want to tear the faces of their hypocrites. Still, she had to be patient.
The county magistrate nodded: "It's really not in accordance with the rules." But this is the strong desire of the people, and I can't help it. Ahem, back to the point, you haven't answered my question yet. What about your evidence? Is it just a verbal statement? ”
This wave of operations by county officials has fascinated the eyes of many people, including Wang Shunde, who was dumbfounded. This taste, the more you taste, the more wrong it is, if he understands it correctly, the county official will give him too many words? Also, how does this make him answer? He couldn't answer.
"This ......? Prefectural magistrate? "Wang Shunde is a little anxious, this is different from their secret operation.
"Your Excellency, please be enlightened!"
"Please be enlightened!" The shopkeepers in the back all kowtowed.
This scene made Xia Ting's eyes red, but he didn't expect ...... They will do it to that extent. At first, she only thought that everyone was dying for the sake of interests, and when it was time for the test, she thought that she was only left with her eldest brother and their relatives, but she didn't expect it......
"My lord! Everything I said was true. If you have any questions about the shop we bought that day, I can also pass on the testimony, he was also present at the time, he is the shopkeeper of Tak Hing Building, he can testify for us. Gujia Malatang, we bought it regularly. "Xia Ting fought for his life, and he didn't care about anything.
As long as she can redress everyone's grievances and find justice, she can put aside any personal debts and talk about them later.
The county magistrate pondered for a while, knowing that it was a formality, but he still had to pretend to be a formality, "If you don't have anything to defend, then the next part, the heir card." The county official raised his head and said to Wang Shunde.
What can Wang Shunde say? Speechless in front of the public, he and the county officials can't say it openly, otherwise it will be a greater sin.
"What important things have you forgotten? Just now. Wang Shunde did not give up and hinted.
This can be noticed by Xia Ting, who exploded like a hedgehog, and immediately intercepted the words and said, "Lord Wang, are you doubting the memory of the adult?" Such a wise and martial person is not as forgetful as you think. ”
The county magistrate glanced at Wang Shunde warningly, "Inheritance card!" ”
Xia Ting was very worried, the situation turned to their side, she couldn't understand the county official's thoughts, she could only grasp any one that was a life-saving straw and grabbed it fiercely, she looked at Uncle De expectantly, her heart was beating stronger than ever. She has a lot of people to help and can get through this.
Uncle De has always been very calm, although he came to the court, he was still as calm and idle as a pine and cypress, and the people under Qiu Ye were still good.
"My lord, in the shopkeeper of Xia Dexing Building, may I ask why you summoned the villain?" Routinely asked, what happened, I knew it.
