Two and a half centenarians came out of the crowd and knelt on the ground.

When Zhao Kuan saw it, he immediately avoided kneeling and asked them to stand and reply.

The two old men also stood up directly, and then gave their hands to Zhao Kuan to report their names.

Zhao Kuan glanced down at the reason for their complaint, and was quite helpless, and asked, "Haven't you ever mediated your dispute?"

The two old men said indignantly, "I don't agree with Lizheng's mediation."

"That's right, he's totally messing with the mud."

"Okay," Zhao Kuan asked, "Uncle Zheng, since you filed a lawsuit, then you should say it first."

The two old men are fighting for a vegetable field, they are both Luoyang remnants who have relocated, the difference is that the place of this relocation is in the village of Zheng Laozhang, the two old men met when they fled, and the two families fled together and had some feelings.

Another old man's surname was Fang, there were too few people in his previous village, and he was rebellious again, and the house was dilapidated, and it was difficult to live in it, so he obeyed the choice of the yamen and went to Zheng Laozhang's village, and lived in an old house next to Zheng's house.

Because there were few people in both families, in response to Zhao Hanzhang's proposal, the two families formed a pair and worked together.

In order to show their affection, the Zheng family generously took out the vegetable field sown by the family before, weeded and hoeed the field with the Fang family, and divided half of the vegetable land to them.

As a result, not long after the vegetable field was opened, the two families quarreled over the type to be sown next year, Zhao Kuan asked a few words, and understood, in fact, it was Abbot Zheng and Abbot Fang who had a disagreement, and their families were very fateful and didn't care what vegetables their neighbors planted.

But the two old men are different, they are very stubborn, one has to plant the same vegetables, and the other has to grow different ones, and then Uncle Zheng decided not to play with Uncle Fang, so he wants to take back the vegetable plot given to Uncle Fang. c

Of course Uncle Fang didn't agree, this vegetable field was overgrown with weeds before, and it was the two of them who weeded together and loosened the soil, why did he say that he would take it back?

Moreover, what has already been given away, how can it be taken back?

So Uncle Fang only promised not to play with Uncle Zheng again, but it was impossible to take back the vegetable field.

Zhao Kuan's head is getting bigger, what he is most afraid of is this kind of case where the public says that the public is justified and the mother says that the mother is reasonable, alas, it seems that this is not very good, and he actually let the case go to the county office.

But Zhao Kuan still mediated the two of them, first came soft, and persuaded them to relax their defense line a little, and then decided, the vegetable plot that had been given to the Fang family was still the Fang family, and it was up to the Fang family to decide what vegetables to plant, and the neighbors should be considerate of each other and help each other, the so-called distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, and they need to take care of each other in the future.

Zhao Kuan asked the Fang family to send some vegetable seeds to the Zheng family, and the matter was over.

Abbot Zheng and Abbot Fang muttered twice, but they still agreed, saying that they accepted the judgment of the county order.

It's just that the two sides are still a little awkward, twisting their heads to the side without looking at each other, just twisting their heads left and right and walking out.

Zhao Kuan continued, one person after another was called to the court, there were all kinds of disputes, the small ones were like neighborhood family disputes, and the big ones were the people's officials.

At this time, the person kneeling on the ground sued a small official of the Assassin's Mansion.

「…… Then Chen Dalang relied on the power of his younger brother Chen Erlang to force my sister to be a concubine," the man who knelt on the ground wiped his tears and said, "Xiao Langjun sent by the school to help the township said that if this matter is reported, the county monarch will make the decision for me, so that the monarch will not sit idly by."

"But I just had this thought, I don't know how they knew, they sent someone to stop me at the entrance of the village, and beat me, I lay at home for four or five days, and early this morning it was the help of the people from the school who ran out to report to the official."

When Zhao Kuan heard this, he was so angry that he was shocked, and asked, "Do you know about this?"

"Chen Li is the uncle of Chen Dalang and Chen Erlang's brothers, so naturally he knows that he also brought people to my house to smash things, so I am not allowed to talk nonsense outside."

Zhao Kuan lowered his face coldly.

Zhao Hanzhang, who was watching, also cooled down.

Zhao Kuan looked to the side and summoned two officials, "You guys immediately go to Xiao Chen Zhuang and recruit Li Zheng and Chen Dalang for questioning, be smarter, more."

Ask a few people."

Wang Siniang on the side immediately said, "County Jun, I'll take them there."

Zhao Kuan frowned and looked at her, "There is a person dead in the east of the city, the county lieutenant has taken someone to investigate the case, and I will see the people of the Chen family and the Xiao family in a while, Xiao Chen Zhuang just let the two officials go."

Wang Siniang: "I'm worried that if they don't investigate carefully, they will be fooled by the people of the Chen family when the time comes, this matter involves the assassination of the Shi Mansion and the envoy, if it is not handled well, I am afraid that it will arouse public anger."

Zhao Kuan thought about it, but he didn't want to face the crying Xiao family and the Chen family alone.

He sighed, waved his hand, and let her go.

Wang Siniang became happy, immediately put down the pen, and left with the two officials.

This case can't be decided at once, and Zhao Kuan asked the official to take the young man who complained down.

The young man trembled and asked, "County, county, are you going to beat me up?"

"What are you doing to hit your board?"

The young man wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "The people in the village said that the following report is to be struck."

Zhao Kuan said: "This regulation is exempted from Zhao Tingshi, and those who sue under the rule of Yuzhou and Luoyang, whether they are sued, or their wives sue their husbands, or their sons sue their parents, they do not need to be punished."

This article has also been announced, but in the past six months or so, Zhao Hanzhang has often announced some things, which not everyone can remember, so most people don't know yet.

Seeing that the eyes of the young people and onlookers in the hall were bright, Zhao Kuan said slowly: "However, although there is no need to be punished, if it is found that the following accusation is falsely accused, then it will be punished as the crime of false accusation, and it will be more than just a board."

The young man immediately said, "It's not a false accusation, the county gentleman, I definitely didn't make a false accusation, this matter has caused a lot of trouble in our village, and many people can be my witnesses."

Zhao Kuan nodded, waved him to step back, and then looked at the time, and saw that the Chen family had been sitting on the mat and waiting, so he decided to continue the trial hungry.

He said to the officials, "Bring the Xiao family and the Chen family with you."

The two families who were caught and fled were the Xiao family and the Chen family, and the Chen family, who was crying in the lobby, was the other family, and the family that was arrested was brothers, and they came to intercede and let Zhao Kuan let him go.

The two families were brought out of the prison, they were a little embarrassed and disgraced, and when they met each other, the Xiao family and their family were also a little related, so they hugged together and cried.

The highlight came, and the young man standing beside Zhao Hanzhang was in high spirits, and he was also staring at it with blazing eyes.

He sighed twice, and said with some admiration: "I didn't expect Zhao County Ling to really try this case in court, I thought it would be tried secretly."

Zhao Hanzhang stood with his hands folded and asked, "What's so special about this case, why can't it be tried openly?"
