Everyone looked in the direction of Zhang Yi's finger, and Zhong Chunsheng knelt beside him a young girl in her twenties-eights, who was quite outstanding, well-behaved and lovely, and would be a big beauty in the future. The girl's face was full of sorrow, and when she saw Zhang Yi pointing at her, her eyes were even more flustered.

"Oh, is Zhang Zhenguo saying that the county should ask Zhong Xiuxiu?" Chen Shuwen smiled, never looked at Zhong Xiuxiu at all, and officially confronted Zhang Yi.

Zhang Yi nodded slightly and said, "Instead of letting an old puffer like Zhong Chunsheng open his mouth to make a statement, it is better to ask his daughter Zhong Xiuxiu directly what the facts are." ”

As soon as these words came out, it immediately caused an uproar inside and outside the county office, and everyone talked about it, Zhang Yi would be so unscrupulous. Only a few people nodded secretly, they knew Zhong Chunsheng and were very familiar with his character, and secretly said in their hearts that Zhang Gongzi scolded well.

"You!" Zhong Chunsheng pointed at Zhang Yi angrily.

Chen Shuwen added oil and vinegar, made a look of wanting to comfort Zhang Yi, and said softly: "Zhang Gongzi, you are a talented person from heaven, you can't be so unscrupulous." ”

"Zhong Chunsheng, a native of Dongzhuang in Longbow City, is over sixty years old. Since he was a child, he abandoned the sage book, mixed with a group of scoundrels in Dongzhuang, seized his father's property, drove away his siblings, and made his father angry to death. Then he became infatuated with the woman of Chunlou, lost his family fortune for her, and sold his wife and three sons to other families as slaves, and Zhong Xiuxiu just turned twenty-eight this year, so he sent her to Fireworks Willow Lane, ready to exchange money to buy wine, such a beast, shouldn't he be scolded for being an old pimple?" Zhang Yi sneered, counting the evil things Zhong Chunsheng had done. This person's words and deeds are like animals, Zhang Yi is extremely disdainful of him, and he can't wait to point his nose and scold.

As Zhang Yi fell, the people watching outside the county government were stunned, and they couldn't believe Zhang Yi's words. But Zhang Yi, as a talent from the sky, scolded him with such bitter words, and they couldn't help but doubt Zhong Chunsheng's personality.

Several of the people couldn't help but clap their hands and scolded angrily: "Zhang Gongzi scolded too well, this old thing is too bad, and our Dongzhuang's face has been lost by him." If we hadn't come to the city to sell vegetables today, we wouldn't have seen such a scene. ”

"How many of you know that old man, is he really as Zhang said?" asked a Xiucai, who was the same year as Zhang Yi and was known as the head of the case.

A common man dressed as a farmer nodded and said: "That's right, this old thing is really not a thing, after trying to rob the family wealth, not only drove away his siblings, but also did not feed his old father, and fed him with some dregs and other things, and finally starved his old father to death!"

"This talented old man, Liu Da is right, Zhong Chunsheng, this old thing is indeed not a thing. Driving away his brother and starving his father, and even selling his wife and children into other families as slaves, is simply a loss of conscience!" another Dongzhuang farmer nodded, "It's a pity that these are their family affairs, and we can't take care of them." But no one in the village was used to him, and they all wanted to beat him. ”

The people around him were really dumbfounded, and they couldn't believe that Longbow City had such things as inferior to beasts. All the people pointed at Zhong Chunsheng's back and scolded bitterly, spitting all over the place, and all the scholars could hardly help but curse, and could only vent their anger with "splashing skin", "scoundrel", and "brute".

Zhang Yi'er was deaf and clear-sighted, and he had already heard the words of the Dongzhuang farmers just now, which was even more outrageous than what he asked Zhang Lin to inquire about! He really didn't expect that there were still such beastly acts of the human race in the Fuliu Country, if they were scholars, they would definitely be rebellious!

Because of the existence of a Taoist academy, the country of Fuliu had a transcendent status in the hundred countries of the Great Zhou Dynasty and was called the country of Fuliu. Except for a section of the poor mountains and bad waters in Bishui City, the rest of the places are full of outstanding people. Even so, there are some inferior human races that cannot be cured by the heavens.

Zhong Chunsheng deserved to be a scoundrel, but when he heard this, he slowly knelt up straight, and said to Chen Shuwen: "Master County Order, what this talented master said is my family matter, and these things have nothing to do with this case, please ask the county master to severely punish Zhang Dongliang." ”

"That makes sense. ”

Chen Shuwen nodded, and slapped the shocked wood again, shocking the onlookers: "Quiet, this county is trying the case, don't make a noise." Zhang Gongzi, Zhong Chunsheng's request is not exaggerated, even if what you said is true, it has nothing to do with this case, let's go back to this case. ”

Zhang Yi shook his head slightly and said, "Zhang Yi doesn't agree with the county commander's statement. The reason why I denounced Zhong Chunsheng as a scoundrel is because these things are necessary conditions for solving this case. ”

"Oh, let's hear it. Chen Shuwen couldn't help laughing, Zhang Yi's every move was extremely stupid in his opinion.

Zhang Yi walked to Zhong Xiuxiu's side, and when he just spoke, he had been secretly observing Zhong Xiuxiu. Whenever Zhang Yi counted the evil things committed by Zhong Chunsheng, Zhong Xiuxiu's body would tremble slightly unconsciously, and she was already touched by Zhang Yi's words.

"Lord County Order, the most important witness in this case should naturally be Zhong Xiuxiu. Whether it is Zhang Dongliang or the old bustard Zhong Chunsheng, it can be regarded as a one-sided statement, and even if they can attract onlookers nearby, they are far away, and I am afraid they will not be able to fully know the inside story. Zhang Yi arched his hand towards Chen Shuwen and asked, "I am very curious, such a simple truth, the adult has been trying the case for a long time, why didn't he ask Zhong Xiuxiu any questions about the whole thing?"

"This ......" Chen Shuwen was still proud, he didn't expect Zhang Yi to suddenly become difficult, and his smile suddenly froze on his face. Generally speaking, the trial of the case naturally has to ask the protagonist of the case first, but he has been questioning Zhang Dongliang, Zhang Quanan, and even Zhong Chunsheng and Lao Bustard, and has never asked Zhong Xiuxiu, who is kneeling and bowing his head, for a word.

"Secondly, Lord Chen, in any respect, Zhong Xiuxiu is the person who should not be punished in this case. Since she is innocent, why do she kneel in the lobby? Could this be Lord Chen's style of trial?"

Zhang Yi asked questions repeatedly, and he no longer called Chen Shuwen the county commander, but called Chen Lord. In Zhang Yi's heart, Chen Shuwen is not worthy of being a county magistrate at all, just for his own selfish desires, he wants to use the important weapon of the country in vain.

Chen Shuwen sweated like rain.

The Criminal Law Hall of the Great Zhou Dynasty clearly stipulates that no matter how big an official or how big a case is, at the time of trial, as long as the person being questioned is not guilty, he cannot be allowed to kneel. With such an iron law, if Zhang Yi sued the imperial court, even if Chen Shuwen was not punished, he would lose a lot of points in the evaluation of his merits on behalf of the county order.

Zhang Yi didn't wait for Chen Shuwen to answer, he didn't care about his identity, squatted next to Zhong Xiuxiu, and said softly: "Miss Zhong, please get up, the county government is the patron saint of the people of a city, you are innocent, you don't need to kneel to anyone." ”

Zhong Xiuxiu raised her head with teary eyes, looked at the handsome and handsome young talent in front of her, and said in her heart that this is Zhang Zhenguo, who wrote the song "Peach Blossom with a Human Face", and it is really the same as what he thinks in his heart. She turned her head slightly to the right, and found that her father was staring at her fiercely, her body trembled, and she quickly lowered her head again.

Zhang Yi naturally saw Zhong Chunsheng's threatening Zhong Xiuxiu's eyes, straightened up, and said to Chen Shuwen: "Lord Chen, Zhong Chunsheng's crime is extremely evil, and he threatened Zhong Xiuxiu again, in the county government hall, do you still want to do nothing?"

Zhang Yi was already furious at the moment, and his voice was like a bell, if it weren't for the fact that he was not presumptuous in the county office, he would have taught Zhong Chunsheng a lesson. There is a majestic literary atmosphere on his body, which is stirred with the literary atmosphere inside and outside the county office, and there is a faint trace of the majesty of the county order.

The officials and people inside and outside the county government immediately admired this talent from heaven, and dared to reprimand the lord of a county in front of the court for the sake of a weak woman, this justice and courage made them worthy of respect in their hearts.

There are also many people who pointed at Chen Shuwen, as if to say whether this county magistrate wanted to take this opportunity to attack Zhang's mansion. Otherwise, how could they have pressed Zhang Dongliang and Zhang Quanan's father and son step by step at the beginning, but ignored Zhong Xiuxiu, the owner of the matter.

Chen Shuwen was awakened by Zhang Yi's angry shouting, and hurriedly used his qi to evaporate his sweat, and his complexion returned to normal. Chen Shuwen slapped the stunned wood and shouted: "Zhong Chunsheng, you are so bold, do you dare to be so presumptuous in the lobby, and take this county in your eyes?"

A surging atmosphere permeated the entire county office, Zhong Chunsheng was like a lightning strike, and he lay on the ground with a bang, unable to kneel up at all.

Zhang Yi's eyes were slightly drunk, the county order grasped the official seal, and he could control the county's culture. As long as he is in the county government, Chen Shuwen is almost invincible, even Hanlin may not be able to please him in his hands. However, he is here to handle the case today, and Chen Shuwen should not dare to make a move on himself.

......

Chen Shuwen was in a state of mind, he had just entered the rank of scholar, and he had not yet thoroughly studied the Spring and Autumn Sacred Book. However, his own jade sense cultivation was completed, and almost instantly, he calmed his mind and regained his look.

"Zhong Xiuxiu, you stand up and answer. Chen Shuwen knew that he could no longer be grabbed by Zhang Yi, so he hurriedly asked Zhong Xiuxiu to stand up.

"Thank you, sir, thank you Mr. Zhang. Zhong Xiuxiu's body was still a little trembling, but her face was a lot ruddy, obviously Zhong Chunsheng's punishment made her feel a lot more settled.

"Zhong Xiuxiu, if you tell the truth about everything in this case, the county will make decisions for you. Chen Shuwen saw that the people outside the county government were pointing at him, so he could only lower his attitude, stared at Zhong Chunsheng and said, "If someone dares to threaten you, this county will definitely not be able to spare him." ”

Zhang Yi sneered in his heart, this county magistrate is really a great skill.

Zhong Xiuxiu turned her head slightly, glanced at Zhong Chunsheng, and found that he was lying on the ground like a dead dog, completely devoid of his former arrogance. She was very settled, and next to her stood Zhang Zhenguo, who had bright eyes and bright teeth, and softly explained what had happened.

"If you go back to the county commander, the whole thing is like this. My father wanted to sell the folk girl to the Chunxing Courtyard, but the folk girl refused, so the old bustard ordered someone to forcibly take me into the courtyard; at this time, this son appeared, and he wanted to buy the folk girl back home, but unfortunately the money was not as much as the old bustard, so my father did not agree. The old bustard ordered someone to drive the son away, and under the conflict, the father was smashed on the forehead by the son. ”
