On the county office, the blood sprinkled by Fan Mingliang all over the ground had been cleaned and wiped, Zhang Guangan sat on the three-foot law table, looked at the three people kneeling in the hall, and announced the guilt of the three people with a shock.

"Fan Jiamafu, although there is no fault for subjectively framing the students of the imperial examination, but participating in it, by the suspicion of being an accomplice,

Now the main offender is ambushed, thinking that you can't help yourself, and Fan Jin doesn't care about the past suspicions. ”

"This officer acquitted you!"

The first sentence to be pronounced was the sin of the groom, as a servant of Fan Mingming's family, although he couldn't help himself, but the master's family made a mistake, and the servant also had to be punished.

Originally, Zhang Guangan was going to award the groom to Fan Jin as a slave and servant, but Fan Jin refused and expressed his willingness to forgive the other party, so Zhang Guangan issued a verdict.

The groom of the Fan family is the man of Fan Wuyi's nurse, and after hearing Zhang Guang'an's verdict, he hurriedly kowtowed three times: "Thank you to the county master!" ”

Then he turned to look at Fan Jin, and there were three bangs: "Thank you Fan for the case, the adults don't remember the villain, the villain kowtowed to you." ”

Fan Jin took a deep breath and received these three rings.

This is the first time that Fan Jin has experienced the coercion and power brought by the superiors, and as the head of the county case, his words can indirectly change the provisional judgment of the magistrate, and can also affect the development of the whole thing.

If he wasn't talented and was killed by Fan Mingming, it is estimated that he would have been killed.

Maybe he didn't attract the attention of others, so he died in a mass grave, buried in the wilderness.

Today, Fan Jin, as the winner, enjoys an unprecedented sense of privilege, which is why everyone wants to participate in the imperial examination and rise step by step.

The privileges enjoyed by those at the top will never be enjoyed by those at the bottom.

Even, even if it is the exploitation and humiliation of the higher-ups, the low-level can only bear it silently, otherwise there will only be more endless exploitation and humiliation waiting for them.

The pyramid structure of society has long been destined for all this.

In the kowtow of the Fan family's groom, Zhang Guangan continued to announce the verdict of Ah Da and Ah Er.

"Ah Da Ah Er, as a servant of the Fan family's nursing home, is a key accomplice in this case.

Nian knew the way back in this case, made up for it, and Fan Jin took the initiative to intercede, the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped. ”

"Come on, 20 boards per person!"

The official received the order, moved the tiger chair, and immediately pressed the two of them on the stool and lay down, and each of them ate 20 boards solidly!

Fan Jin thought that Zhang Guangan would let Ah Da and Ah Er go, because if it wasn't for Ah Da betraying Fan Mingliang at that time, Hu Xiaoyun would definitely be injured, so Fan Jin deliberately interceded with the two at the county office.

As a result, Zhang Guangan still let the two of them taste the twenty boards, Fan Jin looked at Zhang Guangan in puzzlement, but Zhang Guangan nodded at Fan Jin, with a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes.

"Kill the chickens and make an example of the monkeys!"

Fan Jin immediately understood, although Fan Mingliang atoned for his sins with death and exempted him from the punishment of consecutive seats, but this strength was not enough.

In addition, Fan Jin interceded for Ah Da Ah Er and Ma Fu, which made the law punish lightly to a certain extent, and there was no deterrent effect at all.

The punishment for assassinating the students of the imperial examination must not be so simple, otherwise, how can the safety of the students of the imperial examination be guaranteed, and there will be no hope for the future of the country.

Therefore, on Ah Da Er's side, one person and twenty boards are already the lightest punishment, which is not enough for Fan Jin to intercede and Fan Jin himself There is no substantial harm, plus the reason why the two of them know their way back, otherwise, if they don't die, they will be imprisoned for ten and a half years.

Twenty boards, it's not so comfortable.

The wails of the two came from the county office, after the 20th board was finished, the assassination case was over, Wang Xiaohai wrote the whole case and the results in white and black, accompanied by Zhang Guangan's startled wooden sound again, announcing his retirement.

"This is the end of the case of Fan Mingming's assassination of Fan Jin, a student of the imperial examination, and this official will post a notice as a warning!"

"Quit!"

"Might-Might!"

"Knock knock—"

With the sound of the majesty of the officials and the sound of retreat, Fan Jin bowed deeply to Zhang Guang'an, and the people outside also shouted words like "The county magistrate is fair and honest".

Wang Xiaohai personally pasted the notice of the case on the outside of the county office, Fan Jin looked at Ah Da Ah Er, who couldn't stand up while walking, and stopped the doctor of the county office: "I also asked the doctor to raise his hand and help treat these two people, Fan Jin is grateful." ”

When the county magistrate saw Fan Jin say this, he was over half a hundred years old and said with a smile: "Fan is really a big man, and meeting Fan is a blessing for these two people." ”

"Well, according to what the head of the Fan case said, I'll give them some injury medicine."

"Thank you, doctor."

Fan Jin hurriedly thanked him, Ah Da Ah Er looked at the doctor who helped with the medicine, and then looked at Fan Jin who helped him intercede, the two brothers were full of thoughts for a while, looked at Fan Jin weak but said firmly: "Thank you Fan for saving your life, Ah Da Ah Er is unforgettable!" ”

"When my brothers arrange their mother, they will definitely repay the head of the Fan case!"

Fan Jin didn't take the words of the two seriously, but just waved his hand: "No need, make a living in the future and take care of the old mother, it is the best thank you to me, don't lose this filial piety." ”

Lin Qinghai walked out of the backyard, came to Fan Jin's side and said, "Fan Case Leader, the county is looking for you, I have something to discuss with you." ”

When Fan Jin heard this, after saying hello to the doctor, he immediately went to the conference halls on both sides with Lin Qinghai.

"Fan is in, sit down, Lin Zhutou, you can also sit down, this matter will also require you to work at that time."

Zhang Guangan looked at Fan Jin and said with a smile, it seems that the case just now did not have any impact on his mood.

"County Honor."

"County Cheng."

Fan Jin greeted the two of them first, and then sat down.

Fan Jin's etiquette made both of them very satisfied, and after Lin Zhutou also sat down, Zhang Guangan said: "Fan Jin, this case should have been tried by Yang Shangshu himself, but now it has been resolved in advance, and I have already told Yang Shangshu here." ”

"Yang Shangshu is also talking about this here, so even if this case is over, what do you think?"

Fan Jin hurriedly surrendered his hand: "I listen to the arrangement of the county, and the students have no objections." ”

Zhang Guangan laughed and said: "That's good, we won't talk about this unhappy thing." ’

"I have called you here because I have a matter to consult with you."

"County honor, please speak."

Zhang Guangan took a sip of tea and said: "Your high school county case, it is a rare encounter in a hundred years in the entire Ming Kingdom, this official has decided to organize a celebration banquet for you in your hometown, and then Lin Zhutou will go back with you, and then bring a few officials to do it." ”

"And your deeds, this official has already reported to Dongguang Mansion, and when the matter of your Gaoyao Township is dealt with, when you go to Dongguang Mansion to participate in the government examination, remember to come to this official.

The official arranged for you, and you entered Dongguang Mansion in the province, took a detour, and delayed time. ”

Zhang Guangan arranged everything, Fan Jin also hurriedly got up and bowed to thank him, Zhang Guangan smiled and nodded: "In this case, you can clean up at night." ”

"Early tomorrow morning, I will ask Lin Zhutou to take things to the Guangxue Inn to call you, and you will return to your hometown together."

"The official won't go, wait for your house to come back, take the head of the house, and the official will give you a good reception!"

"With the auspicious words of the county, Fan Jin must live up to the expectations of the county."

"The student quits."

Fan Jin retreated from the conference hall, Ah Da Ah Er had already taken the medicine at this time, and the two limping people were staggering outside.

"Ahh

Fan Jin called Ah Da to stop, Ah Da Ah Er looked back at Fan Jin, and was about to salute, but was stopped by Fan Jin.

"Are you going back like this?"

Ah Da Ah Er was stunned, and then in the shocked eyes of the two, Fan Jin took out two taels of silver and said, "Call a donkey cart to go back." ”

"Head Fan, our brothers can't take this money."

"Take it and live well."

Fan Jin stuffed the money into Ah Da's hand and drove away in the carriage.

Looking at the back of Fan Jin leaving, Ah Da couldn't stop crying for a while, the twenty boards just now couldn't make Ah Da cry, but these two taels of silver was-

"Brother."

Ah Er looked at Ah Da's appearance and shouted.

Ah Da wiped his tears, looked at Ah Er on the side and said, "Let's go, let's go home." ”

Ah Er knew that Ah Da had an idea in his heart, looked at Ah Da and said, "Brother, let's go home first, and later, we will repay the kindness of the head of Fan's case." ”

The backs of the two brothers slowly disappeared into the street, and they didn't know where to rent a donkey cart.

Fan Jin also drove the carriage back to the Optical Inn, and Fan Mingming's matter was solved, and Fan Jin felt relaxed all over.

Handing over the carriage to the shopkeeper, Fan Jin returned to the room, and Hu Xiaoyun was packing up his things.

"Coming back?"

"You're back, Sister Yun, what are you packing?"

Fan Jin hugged Hu Xiaoyun from behind, and lowered his head to sniff the faint fragrance coming from the hair of the woman in his arms.

"Let go, Fan Jin."

Hu Xiaoyun didn't expect Fan Jin to hug him directly, he wasn't married yet, how dare he.

Fan Jin let go, Hu Xiaoyun turned around, looked at the smiling Fan Jin, and snorted coldly: "Don't move your hands and feet!" ”

Fan Jin smiled, looking at Hu Xiaoyun's reserved, angry and shy appearance, he only felt funny.

"Don't laugh! I haven't gotten married yet, and I'll be angry if you do this again! ”

Looking at Fan Jinle's appearance, Hu Xiaoyun frowned and said.

Fan Jin hurriedly pulled Hu Xiaoyun to sit down, and said with a smile: "Don't be angry, Sister Yun, I'll tell you a good thing." ”

Hu Xiaoyun was pulled by Fan Jin to sit down, looked at Fan Jin and asked with a smirk, "What's a good thing?" ”

Fan Jin told Fan Mingliang about his death to atone for his sins and Zhang Guang'an told him that he would go home tomorrow and prepare to hold a celebration banquet in Gaoyao Township.

"Dead?"

Hu Xiaoyun muttered to herself.

Fan Jin nodded and said, "It should be dead, the doctor said that the muscles and veins were completely destroyed, so he was carried home by his son in one breath." ”

"What's the matter, Sister Yun, you won't pity him, will you?"

Fan Jin looked at Hu Xiaoyun's somewhat troubled appearance, and couldn't help but be suspicious.

Who knew that Hu Xiaoyun snorted coldly: "Pity him? Hmph, I wish I had hacked him to death with my own hands! ”

Fan Jin: "......"

Sure enough, Fan Jin was still too worried.

However, Hu Xiaoyun turned her mind: "What about that Ah Da, is the strong man in black, the one who rebelled?" ”

Fan Jin said with a smile: "For the sake of his lost way, I let the magistrate of the county lightly fall." ”

Then he gave them two taels of silver, and let them go home."

Hu Xiaoyun nodded: "Although they were wrong first, they still knew that they were wrong in the end, otherwise, we don't know if we can meet again." ”

"What nonsense! Sister Yun, in the future, I will protect you and will never let you have an accident again! ”

"By the way, this Wenbao, you take it!"

Fan Jin suddenly remembered that he still had this humanistic treasure that Yang Li'an gave him.

This kind of humanistic treasure, if the talent is completely abundant, can be used by ordinary people, so that Hu Xiaoyun's safety can be guaranteed.

Hu Xiaoyun naturally knew what the brush in Fan Jin's hand represented, took it in his hand and looked at it, and gave it back to Fan Jin in Fan Jin's incomprehensible gaze.

"You take it, it's more useful than me!"

"As long as you're well, I'll be satisfied."

Looking at Hu Xiaoyun, who cared about him, Fan Jin ignored the other party's resistance and hugged him into his arms.

Hu Xiaoyun didn't struggle, and when she was in love, she naturally didn't struggle.

After the two hugged each other for a while, Hu Xiaoyun whispered in Fan Jin's ear: "Didn't you say that you would go back tomorrow?" Do you want to talk to that Lord Yang, after all, that Lord takes care of you so much. ”

"Sister Yun didn't remind me that I almost forgot, I was going to visit Yang Shangshu."

"After lunch, let's go in the evening, save disturbing the adults to rest."
