Master Zhang followed Zhang Kui and hurried to Lingping Ape Mountain, and the sun was already setting. The mountain is not very tall, but the scenery is surprisingly good. There is a Taoist temple on the mountainside, but it is brightly lit at the moment. Zhang Kui paid his respects and was introduced into a very spacious hall by a Taoist boy, which was divided into two floors like the emperor's court. Zhang Kui and Master Zhang were taken aback when they saw the Spirit Ape Ancestor on the main seat. I saw that the spirit ape ancestor had white hair and a shawl, high eyebrow bones, and a thunder mouth full of white hair, just like an old ape. It's just that the robe on his body is shiny, adding a three-point appearance.

After Zhang Kui and Master Zhang finished the ceremony, they said why. Spirit Ape Ancestor said: "Since it is the arrangement of the Guogong Mansion, our Spirit Ape Temple will naturally help you." Vajra Protector Yuan Dali, Wind Protector Yuan Dapeng, you two have been following me for some years, and this time you should go down the mountain to practice. Although our Spirit Ape Concept can't compare to those famous sects, Ancestor I have an ancient sword of unknown origin here, which is very powerful. You bring it first, if you encounter a strong enemy, don't ruin the reputation of my spirit ape view. ”

Early the next morning, Zhang Kui went directly back to the Guogong Mansion. Master Zhang led the two Yuan Protectors all the way to Fengzhou City.

Song Xiaoxiao and his gang led a group of officials to beat gongs and drums all over the city, and let all families go to the largest vegetable market in Fengzhou City to see the prefect Liu open a case on the spot. For a while, the city was full of jubilation, and the entire vegetable market was surrounded by water.

Governor Liu set up a temporary public court facing north and south. A group of personal soldiers surrounded Fang Shizhang, and two classes of officials stood crookedly on both sides. may be because Song Xiaoxiao was too violent before, and he hasn't straightened his waist yet. Governor Liu sat on the main seat, and Song Xiaoxiao set up a tea table on his right hand and was full of all kinds of snacks.

Governor Liu sat in the hall and sweated profusely. The people who were watching all over the city were also at a loss at the moment.

An old man selling vegetables said, "Which one is this prefect singing today?"

The big man who sold meat next to him said: "These officials are full of food and have nothing to do, and they change their ways to entertain us all day long." ”

The big man who sold cooking cakes said: "If you don't know one by one, don't talk nonsense." The announcement of the government today said that in order to be the master of the house for the people of our Fengzhou, the prefect Liu specially set up the public court at the entrance of this vegetable market, so as to facilitate the people to redress their grievances. ”

The shopkeeper of the teahouse said: "What you said are all tricks of the official family to deceive people. I heard that a few days ago, a big man came to Fengzhou City, and he drove our prefect to this vegetable market to handle the case. ”

The big man who sells meat said: "These bird officials just love to toss, you said that the people in the city are not open to the yamen to complain, that is not the pig and sheep into the butcher's house, step by step to find their own death." ”

The more you talk about it, the more lively it becomes, but I don't see half of the people coming forward to complain. Seeing that the sun was rising in the sky, Song Xiaoxiao was eating happily at the moment, where was the fierce and vicious appearance before. But the good times didn't last long, Song Xiaoxiao hiccuped, looking satisfied and comfortable. Seeing this, Governor Liu secretly rejoiced in his heart: "It's all because these idiots under him can't do things that cause trouble." No matter how powerful this girl is, she is just a child, and it will be over after a coax. So he said in a more gentle tone: "Little master, these are the most famous snacks in my Fengzhou City." As long as the little master likes it, I will immediately order someone to buy more. ”

Song Xiaoxiao looked at the sun, walked to the front of the stage and said, "Lord Prefect, you see it's noon, why haven't you seen anyone come to the stage to complain?"

Governor Liu said: "Little master, now that my dynasty is in a prosperous era, everyone in Fengzhou lives and works in peace and contentment, where are there any grievances." ”

Song Xiaoxiao said innocently: "No, no." Maybe everyone didn't have lunch and didn't have the strength to complain because they were hungry. Hearing this, Governor Liu smiled bitterly in his heart. As soon as he was about to speak, Song Xiaoxiao walked to the front of the stage and shouted loudly: "Folks, today Lord Liu moved the court to the entrance of the vegetable market in order to make it easier for everyone to complain. In order to thank the villagers for their support, Mr. Liu decided to invite everyone present to have lunch. ”

After Song Xiaoxiao finished speaking, the scene was quiet. Ordinary people from all walks of life seemed to watch the monster move and look at the stage. Song Xiaoxiao's eyes rolled and said to Governor Liu: "Lord Prefect, maybe my voice is too small for the villagers to hear clearly." I would like to ask you to tell the villagers what I just said. ”

Hearing this, Governor Liu secretly felt pain in his heart and said: "The crowd present today is not 10,000, but 8,000. This should be eaten according to the standard of this little ancestor, and it will cost at least five or six taels of silver each. That's not all about forty or fifty thousand taels of silver. Isn't this meal a waste of his own money? No, you can't say yes. ”

Song Xiaoxiao saw that Governor Liu's mansion had not moved for a long time. finally pulled down his face and gently patted Governor Liu's shoulder. It's just that with this gentle pat, Governor Liu's legs were weak and he almost knelt down again. Thanks to Song Xiaoxiao's hand, he didn't kneel in public.

Song Xiaoxiao asked with a straight face, "The prefect won't forget what to say, right?"

Governor Liu pulled a bitter gourd face and said: "Folks, recently, rumors about the grievances of the people in my Fengzhou City have been coming to the ears of this mansion from time to time. In order to reflect the government's determination to love the people like children, today the government moved the court to the entrance of the vegetable market to set the record straight. In order to thank all the villagers for their love to the government and express the sincerity of the people of the house, the lunch of everyone present today was invited by the government. ”

The previously quiet vegetable market, because of Governor Liu's generous statement, instantly turned into thunderous applause and loud voices.

Then Song Xiaoxiao arranged the official family in front of Governor Liu. For a while, restaurants of all sizes in Fengzhou City were busy. Of course, there are more versions of the words that have been circulated among the people of the city. It is said that Song Xiaoxiao is a young lady from a dignitary family in the capital, and Lord Liu was forced to be helpless. Some people also say that Song Xiaoxiao was a fairy who came down to save the people of Fengzhou from fire and water. Of course, some people say that Governor Liu's conscience found that he wanted to be a clean official.

A huge lunch ate more than 10,000 taels of silver from Governor Liu's mansion. The housekeeper on the side brought a plate of snacks to the prefect and said, "My lord, let's eat some too." The silver is gone, and we can get it back. ”

Governor Liu waved his hand and said, "How many days has the master been gone?"

The housekeeper said: "Master has been gone for three days, and it stands to reason that the rescuers we invited should be able to arrive today." ”

Governor Liu gritted his teeth and said, "The housekeeper will add another dish and let everyone eat slowly." Two more people were sent to the city gate to pick up the master and them. In the end, you show me again, those people ate me today, and you will give me double it another day. ”

After the people of the city were full of food and drink, someone finally came to the stage to complain. An old couple sounded the drum of grievances, came to the stage and said loudly: "I implore Lord Qingtian to call the shots, Yao San, who is in charge of the city, raped my daughter." It caused my daughter to hang herself. ”

There was a startling sound, and the scene suddenly fell silent. The prefect Liu said: "Hand over the paper and wait for the government to check it." ”

The prefect examined it for a long time and finally spoke: "Passing on the prisoner." ”

After another half an hour, I finally saw several officials carrying Yao San, who was covered in bandages.

There was a shocking sound, and the prefect Liu Dadao: "Yao San, there is a case of Wang Laohan and his wife in Wang's rice shop suing you for raping his daughter to death, can you plead guilty?"

Yao San knelt on the ground and shouted vigorously: "The old man has been wronged! This matter must be that I usually enforce the law too strictly, which makes this old man resentful. That's why today's old man deliberately framed me. Please also ask the master to check it out. ”

Prefect Liu Dadao: "There is some truth in this. Wang Laohan, do you sue Yao Sanke for any physical evidence?"

Wang Laohan said: "Lord Qingtian, our old couple and the little mute next door are witnesses." On the day of Yao San's murder, he deliberately let people trick our old couple into the yamen. Thanks to the little mute next door who came to report to our old couple, our old couple rushed back and bumped into Yao San. Helplessly, we were old and frail, but we were beaten violently by Yao San. I implore Lord Qingtian to call the shots!"

Yao San hurriedly argued: "The master wants to call the shots for the little one! These two old things are purely framing the villain, and now they actually pull a dumb person out to prevaricate the master." Please check it out. ”

Governor Liu said: "Pass on the little mute." ”

The little mute had already arrived, and was brought to the front of the hall for questioning, and he gestured for a long time.

Governor Liu said: "This dumb person can't explain the testimony in court, so write it yourself." ”

Wang Laohan hurriedly said: "Lord Qiyu, this little mute has never read since he was a child, and he can't write. ”

Governor Liu said: "Wang Laohan, according to my Tang Dynasty law, this evidence must be witness testimony or written evidence. However, the old man took pity on the pain of your old age and daughter, so he will give you another chance. From tomorrow, let the little mute come to the government to read and write, and when the little mute learns to read and hyphenate, the case will be decided. ”

As soon as Governor Liu's verdict was announced, the onlookers suddenly became noisy.

Song Xiaoxiao also threw away the chicken leg in his hand. got up and patted Governor Liu on the shoulder and said, "You rest first, I'll come." Governor Liu was startled and obediently gave up his position.

Song Xiao was shocked, and Yao San was suddenly so frightened that he lost his soul and trembled. Song Xiaoxiao opened his mouth and asked, "Yao San, I'll ask you again." Wang Laohan sued you for raping his daughter to death, will you recruit or not?"

Yao San kowtowed like pounding garlic, but he shouted that he was wronged.

Song Xiaoxiao shouted loudly: "Come on, first beat Yao San with three hundred boards and then interrogate." ”

All the officials are pushing me to make me hesitate. Song Xiaoxiao continued: "Hou Er, Hou San, you go to fight. ”

Hou Er and Hou San dragged Yao San to the ground, snatched the water and fire stick in the hands of the servants, and then fought. The three Yao stalks screamed like killing pigs. After dozens of sticks, Yao San couldn't stand it, so he had to confess.

Song Xiaoxiao smiled: "If you admit it earlier, you will lose a beating." At this time, the onlookers all clapped their hands.

Then Song Xiaoxiao turned his head to Governor Liu and said, "Since the prefect has confessed, shouldn't he arrange to behead him?"

Governor Liu hurriedly said: "The little master can't, this conviction and murder still needs to be reported to the Criminal Department for approval before the crime can be convicted." ”

Song Xiaoxiao said: "This Yao San should have died a long time ago." ”

At this time, the onlookers also began to get excited, "Kill Yao San, kill Yao San, kill Yao San......"

"Demon girl, Hugh is arrogant!" Master Zhang shouted loudly in the distance. But Master Zhang and others just rushed over.

Song Xiaoxiao raised his eyes and looked at it, just as he collided with the Vajra Protector Yuan Dali's eyes, and faintly felt a trace of danger. Song Xiaoxiao immediately threw Yao San into the crowd, and then ordered Hou Er and the others to flee for their lives. This Yao San has aroused a lot of public indignation today, not to mention that Song Xiaoxiao deliberately threw Yao San in a crowded place. Maybe Yao San never dreamed that he would end up trampling everyone to death.

Vajra Protector Yuan Dali made a few leaps and came to the front of the stage. Yuan Dali is more than a foot tall, with protruding eyes and a beard. jumped up like an iron tower falling from the sky and smashed into Song Xiaoxiao. Song Xiaoxiao also punched head-on, not afraid of Yuan Dali's momentum at all. This collision of pure power, the two actually fought evenly.
