Chapter 168: The Blind Cat Crashes into a Dead Mouse
As soon as Zao Jun's birthday passed, Song Huan often found that Kang's would often go to the village to look, and he would go home again after a while, and this had been repeated for two or three days.
Twenty-sixth of the lunar month
Song Huan came down from the mountain and happened to meet Kang's who was about to go back, and shouted, "Auntie." ”
Kang's was absent-minded, she didn't see Song Huan at all just now, and when she heard Song Huan's shout, she turned around, "Xiao Song, this just came down from the mountain?" ”
Song Huan nodded, "Auntie, is there something wrong?" ”
Kang sighed, his face full of worry, "Da Lang has been in the city for a long time, and he said that he would come back on the day of Zao Jun's birthday, but now he is twenty-six, and he hasn't come back yet, aren't I afraid that something will happen to him?" ”
Song Huan said, "I guess there is something delayed, right?" ”
Kang shook his head, "Where can there be anything?" Li Dalang from the same village had already returned, and when he asked him, he said that Dalang said that he had something to do and asked him to come back first. Your uncle Gao couldn't find anyone when he went to the city to look for him, and this dead child didn't know what was going on to go home early and say it, so that the family was in a hurry! ”
Song Huan and Fu Yuanzhi originally planned to go to the city tomorrow to buy New Year's goods, so they said, "Where did Da Lang find a short-term job?" Tomorrow we will go to the county to help you take another look and find out. ”
Kang thought about it for a while, and then told Song Huan an address.
The next day, Song Huan and Fu Yuanzhi came to Gao Dalang's place to work part-time, and the steward there said that it would be over on the twenty-fourth.
Song Huan said, "Aunt Kang said that there are no relatives in the county, so he should have nowhere to go."
Fu Yuanzhi looked at the pedestrians coming and going, and said, "But I was stumped by something." ”
After Fu Yuanzhi said that, he grabbed a person who was running forward in a hurry and asked, "This little brother, what are you doing in such a hurry?" ”
The little brother who was pulled away glanced at Fu Yuanzhi and Song Huan, and then said, "The county magistrate has started to try the case, and we big guys are going to see the excitement!" ”
The little brother wanted to leave, but Fu Yuanzhi couldn't bear to continue to ask, "Does the little brother know what the case is?" ”
The little brother shook his head, "I don't know about this, when I listen to the sound of the drums, isn't there a case?" ”
The New Year is coming soon, and at this time there is a case, and the big guy goes to see the excitement, and everyone has something to talk about during the New Year.
The little brother doesn't want to delay, and if he goes later, he won't be able to occupy a good position.
Fu Yuanzhi and Song Huan glanced at each other, and Song Huan asked tentatively, "Why don't we go and have a look?" ”
According to the routine, you may be able to have unexpected gains in the most lively places.
Fu Yuanzhi nodded.
When the two arrived, the trial had already begun, Song Huan tried hard to see the people inside, and his heart was lost.
There was no tall man they were looking for.
Song Huan put down the basket and looked at the crowd of people at the entrance of the yamen, "What should I do?" ”
Fu Yuanzhi said, "Let's wait first. ”
There are a lot of people here, and if you look closely, you can see the people in half of the county.
A teenager doesn't stay still, and they may not find it aimlessly on the street.
If something really happens to him, waiting outside the county office, the chance of encountering it is the greatest.
In this way, the two of them waited outside the county office, because the public hall needed to be quiet, and the voices of the county magistrates and the people under the hall could be heard clearly.
After a loud bang, the voice of the county order came out, "You are Li San?" ”
"The villain is Li San."
"Do you know what this official is looking for you?!"
Li San thought that he hadn't done anything, and he wasn't very scared, and said, "The villain doesn't know. ”
The county order said, "A few days ago, the official received an official document saying that Tangcheng recently caught a robber who robbed in the Tangjiang River, and confessed that there was a co-perpetrator who lived in my Yuecheng, and his name, address, and appearance all pointed to you, what else do you say!" ”
When Li San heard this, his face was shocked, and he hurriedly kowtowed, and couldn't help shouting that he was wronged, "The villain is wronged!" The villain doesn't know how to drive a boat at all, and he has never gone to the river to rob! ”
The county magistrate was shocked and said sharply, "Bold thief, still dare to quibble, you didn't rob, why do others say you participated?" You still have all kinds of looted goods hidden in your house! Hurry up and confess one by one! ”
That Li San knew that it was so powerful that he was so frightened that he cried, and hurriedly listed his family's property one by one in order to clear himself.
A few zhang of cloth were woven by his mother-in-law at home, some rice was collected from the field, and there was a lot of money, which was returned by his neighbor Zhang Si to redeem the deed.
The prefectural magistrate listened to it, wrote them down one by one, and then said, "What you said is true?" ”
Li San nodded hurriedly, "Yes!" What the villain said is the truth, it's true! ”
The county magistrate snorted and said, "Pass on Zhang Si!" ”
Li San hadn't realized the real reason behind this at this time.
He saw Zhang Si, his eyes full of hope.
The county magistrate looked at Zhang Si and said, "Is the eighty taels that Li San said the ransom money you gave him back?" ”
Zhang Si said, "Yes! ”
Li San was very moved, thinking that this matter could be revealed, but who knows, the county magistrate suddenly said, "Then why didn't you admit that this was Zhang Si's eighty taels of silver?" ”
"Did Zhang Si help you make a false witness?!" The voice of the county commander suddenly became fierce again.
When Zhang Si heard this, he hurriedly fell to the ground and said loudly, "The villain didn't!" Villain, no, adult! ”
Li Sanyi was also anxious when he heard this, this is not yet the crime of being an accomplice, and he only hurriedly explained the previous Lai Zhang Si's money, "At the beginning of this year, Erlang of Zhang Si's family fell down the slope while playing and was seriously injured. ”
"No, on the 22nd, it was the appointed date, Zhang Silai came to repay the money, but he only had eighty taels in his hand, and said that his daughter-in-law would return the remaining ten taels of silver to me when she borrowed the money back in a few days."
The county magistrate asked Zhang Si and said, "Have you paid back the ten taels of silver in the back?" ”
Zhang Si immediately replied, "I went to return it on the twenty-fourth day, but it was just ......"
Zhang Si looked at Li San, who was blushing, and said, "It's just that Li San refused to return the deed to the villain, and said that he had never received the eighty taels of silver that the villain had paid back before." ”
Li San also admitted in order to clear the charge of being an accomplice, "Yes, yes." The villain, the villain, was confused for a while, so he ......"
Seeing that the matter had been decided, the county magistrate directly asked Li San to return the house contract documents to Zhang Si.
It turned out that after Li San relied on the account, Zhang Si sued the official in a fit of anger and told the county order the reason for the incident.
The county magistrate did indeed receive the official letter, but the other party was not Li San.
When the county magistrate came out with this move, he sorted things out, and Li San also saw at this time that there were any accomplices, but they were just defrauding him, and the purpose was to return the contract to Zhang Si.
As soon as the county magistrate was about to retire from the court, someone rushed into the court while the official did not react, shouting that the master of Qingtian was in charge of him.
Song Huan and Fu Yuanzhi also saw clearly at this time, isn't this person Gao Dalang!
Song Huan thought, she was ready to leave to buy New Year's goods, and this person came out like this?
Is it really a blind cat running into a dead mouse?
