Chapter 45: Whose Carp?
King Liang has opened his mansion!
The news spread like a flew, and many people hurriedly dressed and waited at the gate of the Taishou Mansion, waiting for the summons.
Lou Xiaowan came out at this time and said: "The prince has an order, those who are full of 100,000 yuan will enter the hall, those who are full of 10,000 yuan will be in the front row, and those who are less than 10,000 yuan will be in the back row." ”
One coin is one penny, the conversion rate of Yu Guoyin is one thousand, and one hundred thousand yuan is one hundred taels of silver.
Isn't this a matter of spending money to buy officials?
There are not necessarily officials who can do it.
When everyone looked at each other, some local tyrants who couldn't wait had already rushed to Lou Xiaowan.
took out a hundred taels of silver tickets, put them together with the vote, and presented them to Lou Xiaowan.
Lou Xiaowan accepted it together, "Let's go in." ”
Seeing this, the rest of the people didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and gave money to go in, where is the chance to go in if they don't go in, if they really become officials, will they be short of this hundred taels of silver?
Soon.
There are only a few shy people left outside.
Lou Xiaowan turned around, "Let's all go in, you can listen quietly in the back row, and don't make loud noises." ”
"Miss Xie Lou."
Although they knew in their hearts that there was no chance to go in, they still wanted to try their luck.
And I went in another batch.
The last one remained, a man in his thirties, with a book in his hand and patches on his clothes.
"Why don't you go in?"
"Soldiers can be killed, but not humiliated!" He said proudly.
"Whatever you want."
Lou Xiaowan didn't force him, and was about to go in.
"Wait."
He still didn't hold his breath, walked to Lou Xiaowan, hesitated for a moment, and held up the book he had been holding.
"If the prince looks at what I have written, he will invite me to the court!"
"So confident?"
Lou Xiaowan smiled, then reached out and took the book, "Okay, I'll send it in for you." ”
"Miss Xie Lou." He made a gesture.
Lou Xiaowan came to the backyard, found Li Huai, and said, "Lord Wang, basically all come in." ”
"Basic?"
Li Huai was stunned, "Is there anyone who doesn't want to come in?" ”
Lou Xiaowan nodded, "There is a strange person who said that the priest can be killed but not humiliated, and he is unwilling to come in, and he dragged me to bring a book to the prince, saying that after the prince reads it, he will inevitably invite him to the court." ”
"Show me it."
Li Huai beckoned to take the book, flipped through a few pages casually, and nodded slightly, "This person has something." ”
"Then the minister went to invite him?" Lou Xiaowan asked tentatively.
Li Huai shook his head, "No! ”
After thinking about it.
Li Huai picked up a pen and paper, wrote a paragraph, looked up and said, "You just give him this." ”
"Yes."
Lou Xiaowan was just about to leave.
"You can just call someone, don't waste time, let's get down to business." Li Huai said again.
Lou Xiaowan handed over the letter to the guard, asked him to send it out, and handed it to the outsider.
The two closed the door to talk.
When the layman saw someone coming out, he stretched his neck slightly, and he was a little disappointed when he saw that it was not Li Huai, the king of Liang.
It's not even a small bowl.
"Could it be that King Liang really has no ability to know people?" He muttered to himself.
"Who is that, our prince has read your book, this is the prince's reply to you." The gauntlet gave him the letter.
The layman picked it up and looked at it, and it wrote: "Your words, you can lead the horse for the lonely whip!" ”
"Too much deception!"
He threw the letter into a ball, slammed it to the ground, and left in a fit of rage.
Never again!
……
"These are the ones I've seen at that restaurant, these are the ones I've seen at the Red Sleeves, these are all fresh faces."
Lou Xiaowan divided all the votes into three pieces, and they all corresponded to the entrance fee they gave, and the points were exactly the same.
There is a very strange phenomenon, they have the money to visit the Qinglou, eat and drink, but they can't get out the 10,000 dollars in the front row.
Hypocrisy!
So, these people were also divided into categories, focusing on care!
Li Huai raised his head and asked curiously, "There are so many people coming and going, do you remember each of them?" ”
Lou Xiaowan nodded, "I can't be mistaken." ”
Actually, think about it.
She can memorize all those tongue-twisting Taoist scriptures, and when Li Huai needs it, she can recite them word for word.
It's not hard to remember people.
"Which of these people in the 100,000 dollars you have seen, and divide them out." Li Huai commanded.
Lou Xiaowan churned for a while, and soon, she divided it into another category according to Li Huai's request.
"You remember all these people, sit near me later, and show me when the time comes." Li Huai said.
After he entered Jiuyuan City, he found that the atmosphere was very strange, and the people here didn't like to talk, and they seemed to have secrets in their hearts.
Even the Taishou of Jiuyuan County, Lu Youqi is the same, he must be hiding something, and even Fengyuejian can't find out.
Then, Li Huai could only dispatch everyone and try to muddy the water to see if a few big fish would jump out.
Then.
Lu Youqi knocked on the door outside and said, "Lord Wang, you're ready to ascend." ”
"Okay."
Li Huai agreed, stood up and straightened out Yirong, this will be the first case he will break after he arrives in Liangzhou.
You can't go wrong.
Syllable!
There was a startling sound.
"Mighty!"
The attendant who pretended to be a volunteer rode and shouted loudly.
Li Huai walked out of the side door.
"Meet the prince!"
Everyone knelt down in unison and officially saw King Liang, and they found that they were younger than they imagined, and they couldn't help but beat drums in their hearts.
Can he govern Liangzhou well?
Li Huai sat down, raised his hand and said: "All flat, worship today, after this worship, there is no need to worship today." ”
These red tapes are really troublesome.
"Thank you, Lord Wang."
They all returned to their seats, and Lu Youqi and Lou Xiaowan also sat down on Li Huai's left and right.
Syllable!
Li Huai picked up the shocking wood and patted it.
"Take the suspect!"
The two middle-aged men were brought in, and before they could appear in the court, they had already quarreled.
"Wronged!"
"Lord Wang, I am the one who was wronged."
"I was wronged."
“……”
Li Huai raised his hand, signaled them to be quiet, and said: "Everyone who goes to the court says that they are wronged, but who is wronged, you don't count, this king also said it doesn't count, only Dayu Law has the final say." ”
"Lord Wangming!"
Everyone immediately praised Li Huai.
It's too much.
This hasn't even started yet.
Li Huai picked up the pleadings on the case, this case is very ordinary, these two middle-aged men are both coolies.
One day, they went to the Yellow River to fish for carp, and caught a carp with a scar on the forehead, which is the noble product of the Yellow River carp, the Longmen carp, weighing one catty and eight taels, and the market price is one or two silver. A says he caught it, and B says he caught it.
No one was convinced, so he sued the court, because the evidence was insufficient, and the former county commander Tian Qing had not made a decision.
It's dragged on until now.
"What do you think?" Li Huai asked everyone.
"Just one and a half."
"It's just the two of them when fishing, and there is no third person to witness it, which is impossible to tell at all, and I agree with one and a half."
"Seconded."
Li Huai asked the two middle-aged men, "They said one and a half, do you agree?" ”
"Disagree!"
"I caught him, why should I divide him in half."
"Obviously I caught it."
Obviously, if they had to agree, they wouldn't have dragged it out until now.
Li Huai turned his head, "Lu Taishou, what do you think should be?" ”
Lu Youji thought for a moment and said, "Please raise your hands." ”
And they did.
"Let me ask you again, is the water of the Yellow River cold? Or is it hot? Lu Youji asked.
"It's cool." A said.
"No, the surface of the Yellow River is bitterly cold, but the inside is hot." B said.
Lu Youqi turned to face Li Huai and said, "Lord Wang, I thought that the carp was captured by B, and A was falsely accused. ”
A immediately became anxious, "Why? ”
Li Huai also looked at Lu Youqi and asked, "Why do you think so?" ”
Lu Youqi explained: "First of all, B has chilblains on his hands, but A does not, the Yellow River is frozen for three feet, and he chisels ice to fish with his bare hands, how can he not have chilblains." ”
"Second, A doesn't even know whether the water of the Yellow River is hot underneath, which proves that he did not participate in fishing, and the fish should belong to B."
A's face changed instantly, and he knelt on the ground softly, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, obviously being right.
Li Huai was a little surprised, and said with a smile: "Did Lu Taishou also catch carp in the Yellow River?" Otherwise, how do you know that the water under the Yellow River is hot? ”
"The minister loves to eat fish." The land rover returns.
"Isn't fishing for fun?" Li Huai continued to ask.
Lu Youqi shook his head, "In this winter, whoever fishes for pleasure is for life." ”
Li Huai was even more puzzled, if he wanted to eat fish, he still needed to go to the Yellow River to fish by himself, so he just bought one.
Unless...... He's a poor batch!
Syllable!
Li Huai didn't bother too much, picked up the shocking wood and patted it, and announced: "The fish caught will belong to B, in addition, A maliciously made false accusations, fined 100 money, and 10 heavy responsibilities, and executed immediately!" ”
After speaking.
Li Huai took out a piece of broken silver, "This king bought this fish and gave it to Lu Taishou." ”
"Thank you, Lord Wang!"
Lu Youqi thanked him.
"Next case!"
