When Xu Tian heard the sound, he hurriedly turned his head to take a look, and when he saw that it was Zhao Mengqi, he was shocked, "You! Why are you here again!? This is a public court, not a place for you to mess around! β
"Heh, you still know this is a court!? I thought you thought this was our back garden. Don't worry, I'm a civilized person, how can I mess around, I'm just here to seek justice. β
Zhao Mengqi stepped forward slowly, so frightened that Xu Tian retreated again and again, like a mouse seeing a cat.
At this time, Liu Xiuren, who had been sitting there without speaking, saw that Kochi County did not respond, so he said seriously, "Cough! Zhao Yanei, the case is being tried here, you are an unrelated person, you can watch the trial, but please don't disturb the court. β
"How can I be unrelated? I am the lawyer of the victim! β
"Lawyer!?" Liu Xiuren was stunned.
This word existed in the Tang Dynasty, but by this time it was a religious term, a name for monks who kept the precepts, but Liu Xiuren thought about it, and the meaning in Zhao Mengqi's mouth at this time should be "lawyer".
The profession of lawyer, in China, where the idea of "no litigation" was promoted, has always been rejected by the government and despised by public opinion, and it has often been attacked, but it was relatively relaxed in the Song Dynasty.
Because there were many scholars in the Great Song Dynasty, and they had to be familiar with the laws and regulations and various official document formats in the imperial examination, many people who failed the examination could not become officials, so they would help ordinary people deal with the government to make a living.
The imperial court also acquiesced in the existence of pleading-writing shops, and litigators either relied on their own experience in the case or through secret copies of pleadings and daily books that were secretly circulated to help the public write pleadings and provide legal skills and advice, but did not allow litigators to formally appear in court to participate in litigation.
However, with the development of time, some people with special statuses, such as the clan, the son-in-law of the clan, and the children of officials, can occasionally argue with the county officials in the public court.
So in view of Zhao Mengqi's two identities, whether true or false, he wants to help people fight lawsuits in court, and Liu Xiuren can't say anything, after all, his purpose is to make trouble for Zhao Mengqi within a reasonable range, not to really provoke and offend him.
"Well, as long as you follow the rules, you are allowed to help in the lawsuit."
Zhizhou recognized it, and others couldn't object, so Zhao's "barrister" began to exert his authority.
He pointed at Xu Tianyi, "Gao Xianzun, this person is obviously despising the imperial court officials, which means that he has no royal law and is disrespectful to the imperial power, so I don't know what crime to be guilty of?" β
This big hat was buttoned down, everyone was stunned, and Kochi County was even more stunned, it's not that he hadn't heard of this crime, if the flat-headed people dared to be like Xu Tianyi, without others to say, he would already be waiting for him, but Xu Tianyi is also a "person in the circle", so it is naturally not good to do this.
Kochi County, who was at a loss, subconsciously looked at Liu Xiuren, but Liu Xiuren tilted his head and was unwilling to catch the ball.
In desperation, he had no choice but to say dryly, "If you think about it for the first offense, you will be punished with ten rods... The rod blames the five boards. β
Oh, this dog official still doesn't want to offend people too much!
Zhao Mengqi took a deep look at Kochi County, and he was too lazy to entangle, anyway, the show just began.
Seeing that Zhao Mengqi had no objections, Kochi County took out a order sign from the lottery holder and threw it under the hall, "People who commit Xu Tianyi despise the court, and the cane will punish the five boards!" β
The officials received the order, carried out a wide bench and placed it in the hall, and then twisted Xu Tianyi to lie on it.
Xu Tianyi kept struggling and roaring, "I have an official body, but I am a letter man, and I can't be tortured lightly ......."
The officials couldn't help but stop, but Zhao Mengqi opened his mouth and asked, "There is no basis for the words, the official notice will take a look." β
Xu Tianyi is just a shadow official, and he has no real job, how can he bring this thing when he comes out to play, and it is not the ID card of later generations, the official at this time writes on silk paper, and a large number of institutions use seals and signatures, a whole few pages, and it is annoying to lose and damage it.
"Can't take it out? That is, no, if you are cunning and deceitful, the crime will be increased! Call me. β
Zhao Mengqi is like this, where is he like a lawyer, he completely combines the prosecution and judgment, and Kochi County and Liu Zhizhou can only be seen and heard.
After receiving a substantial threat, the situation in front of him made Xu Tianyi dare not protest anymore, so he could only close his eyes and mourn for himself.
The officials who continued to work flipped the hem of Xu Tianyi's robe up and pulled down his pants, revealing white flowers. (This chapter is not finished!) )

Ass, raised the water fire stick and was about to hit.
"Wait, I'm here for this job, I've been an errand boy in the ministry, and I'm good at it."
Geng Zhi walked out and snatched the water and fire stick, and the official was afraid of him and walked away silently.
Many people feel speechless, and the Ministry of Officials is not the Criminal Department, has something to do with playing boards?
Geng Zhicai didn't care what others thought, as long as Zhao Mengqi didn't stop him, he picked up the water and fire stick and slashed it down.
"Smack!"
"Click!"
"Ah......h
The sound of flesh smashing, the sound of sticks breaking, and screams sounded almost simultaneously.
Mother, this cane is really bad, and it's a spanking, if it's a spine cane, people will be gone!
"Phew! What a broken house, so unforbidden, change one. β
Geng Zhi threw away the broken stick in disgust and snatched another one from the officer, and Xu Tianyi had already fainted at this time.
"Take it easy, the play is still long." Zhao Mengqi had to speak up.
"Oh." Geng Zhi scratched the back of his head, smiled, retracted his strength, and slapped it down with another cane.
"Smack." "Ahh
This woke Xu Tianyi up, and the pain almost broke his teeth.
Then there were three unhurried three sticks, and he was soaked in sweat and seemed to have only one breath left.
The officials grabbed Xu Tian's hands and feet, pulled him into a big shape, lifted him off the bench, threw him to the ground, and threw him right next to Gu Xixi's body.
Geng Zhi threw the water and fire stick back to the officer, clapped his hands, retreated to the end of the hall, and showed a smile of invitation to Zhao Yan with his face, and Zhao Yan gave him a thumbs up with satisfaction.
Zhao Mengqi couldn't help but hold his forehead, he had a headache, how could his kind and lovely girl become violent?
Ignoring this matter for the time being, Zhao "Barrister" pointed to the other five people, "Gao Xianzun, these people are also roaring in court, foul language, it is simply polluting the simple folk customs of the Great Song Dynasty, I don't know what crime to be guilty of?" β
Polluting the people? What kind of bizarre crime is this?
Well, you are a nobleman, you can do whatever you want.
Kochi County broke the jar and fell, Mu Ran grabbed a handful of orders and threw them out, "Each of them plays five boards to set an example." β
The five people were frightened and trembled, but in Zhao Mengqisen's cold gaze, none of them dared to protest, they were beaten honestly, they would lose half their lives, and if they dared to beep, they would be dead.
Immediately, Zhao Mengqi's guards, except for Wu Qiong, all came out enthusiastically, robbed the work of the officials, and went forward to execute one by one.
Even Qian Xiaopang has become an honorable "executioner", and he is very happy to beat a big white ass.
For a while, there was an endless crackling sound in the public court, and the five gentlemen were beaten to death, and the ones lying on the ground became seven.
"Barrister Zhao" looked at the six buttocks with flowers and felt a little satisfied, "After the killing stick is over, it is time to formally try the case." β
He walked around the six people, "I ask you, do you admit to beating *** five women and causing Gu Xixi's death?" I kindly remind you, confess leniently, resist strictly, this is your only chance, don't be ignorant. β
Niang Xipi, there is such a lawyer? Is there such a trial?
Liu Xiuren rolled his eyes, and he didn't want to directly confront Zhao Mengqi, Liu Weizhen, who was standing behind him, looked at Zhao Mengqi with more and more fear, this Yan Wang is not a person who abides by the rules, it is really terrible.
Xu Tianyi and the six people were beaten to pieces, and their brains were confused, and they couldn't hear what Zhao Mengqi was talking about at all.
"Very good, don't say you didn't give a chance, it's you who don't cherish it!"
Then, Zhao Mengqi squatted down beside Gu Xixi's corpse and slowly lifted the white cloth.
What caught my eye was the shattered head, the hair was stained with coagulated black blood, and the brown brain, a mess.
Half of the face, which is slightly complete, should have been washed before death, and it can be seen that the face is better than snow, but the lips are strangely black and purple, which should be caused by poisoning.
She was covered in mud, and it looked like she jumped off the building naked.
Perhaps, at that time, what she thought was that the naked ones came and the naked ones walked, without bringing everything in the world......
Hey......, the wind blows eggshells, and the world is not worth it.

On the originally innocent body, covered by mud and dust, there are bruises and abuse marks, criss-crossing and shocking.
Zhao Mengqi couldn't bear to look at it anymore, put down the white cloth, his heart was heavy, and his face was filled with an irrepressible murderous aura, so he squatted and turned his head to look at the four female dancers who were kneeling.
They were all young, only sixteen or seventeen years old, and they were good-looking, but they were all pale and sad, and their red and swollen eyes were dim, hiding numbness and resignation, and perhaps they felt the mad killing intent, and they trembled like willows in the wind.
Zhao Mengqi tried his best to restrain a little, and softened his voice, "Don't be afraid, it's not you who are guilty, and you haven't done anything wrong, there are many injustices in this world, which have made you suffer, but you still have to kneel, this is actually very unreasonable, get up." β
The gentle voice soothed the female playwives and made them gradually less afraid, but their eyes were still blank, as if they did not understand the meaning of the words.
Zhao Mengqi sighed lightly, stood up, came to them, bent down, and helped them up one by one, "Maybe someone secretly said something to you, most of it was a threat, so you don't dare to tell the truth, but you don't have to be afraid, even if that person is in a high position, he won't have the courage to really do anything to you." β
Speaking of this, he also deliberately turned his head to look at Liu Xiuren, "Liu Taishou, am I right?" β
"That's right, that's right, Zhao Yanei is right, especially under the rule of this official, he will never allow coercion to induce confessions and bend the law for personal gain. @η²Ύε\/Shuge*First update~~" Liu Xiuren honestly concealed the embarrassment on his face and swore an oath.
Zhao Mengqi nodded with satisfaction, "What Liu Taishou means is that as long as they have any accidents or bad things in the future, they will be fully responsible, right?" β
"That's right, this official promises!"
Liu Xiuren knew in his heart that King Yan must be doubting himself, so he set himself up and could only admit defeat first.
"Okay, you can rest assured, as long as you have something to do in the future, then Liu Zhizhou will definitely have something, this is my guarantee to you." Zhao Mengqi said solemnly, and then looked at the four of them calmly, "Now, please tell the truth about yesterday's events, and I will seek justice for you!" βγ
