The new god ascended the throne, and the City God Temple wished Zhao Laoba very happy, because it meant that he had half a tael of incense money to take every month.
In the past, there were many people who worshiped the city god, and some of them would stuff a few pieces of money into the merit box, and of course, there were also generous believers, who would pay a few taels of silver as soon as they made a move.
These incense money must be registered, although it is managed by Zhao Laoba, but it does not belong to him, most of it needs to be handed over to the government to be saved, and in the year of famine, it can be used to give relief to the victims, soup soup and so on.
However, half a tael of silver would be left over every month, which would be counted as his salary for guarding the temple.
The Lord of the City God ascended to the throne without warning, and there was no time to sculpt the statue of the clay god at all. In desperation, Zhao Laoba had no choice but to find a carpenter and ask him to carve a god tablet and temporarily put it on the altar for worship.
The carpenter is also a believer in the Lord of the City God, and he did not dare to relax in the slightest after receiving the entrustment, and in half a day, the tablet has been completed. Then Zhao Laoba put on a few pillars of incense and respectfully placed the tablet on the altar.
It's just that now the people of Wanshan Mansion have a skeptical attitude, and in one day, there are not many believers who make incense. As for the donation of incense money, there is no one.
Chang Jin left a projection in the Chenghuang Temple Divine Domain, and of course he knew about it. He didn't care about the scarcity of believers. Understand that the conversion of these believers from doubt will take a process to get used to.
As night fell, he led Xiao Mu back to the Chenghuang Mansion early, and ascended to the hall to begin the trial of the criminals who were locked up in the Yin Si Prison. What he expected was not bad, the previous Chenghuang Wei Yuan only knew how to ask for incense and mental power, and he was not interested in exploring the Yin Si Prison at all, because in just a few months, the prison was overcrowded with criminals, and there were thousands of people.
Chang Jin casually flipped through a few pages of the Yin Si Law, and now it was no different from what he saw when he was serving as a thoroughfare. It's right to think about it, the Shinto of Tongqu County is already under the jurisdiction of the City God, so how can there be much difference in the laws of the Yin Division.
After "bringing prisoners" saw it, he immediately commanded the left and right ghost soldiers. Originally, these things needed the assistance of a judge, but unfortunately Chang Jin had already killed Judge Xie last night, and now he could only do it himself.
Next, the Yin soldiers in the hall saw what it means to judge the case, and the lord of the city god is very familiar with the law, and when he encounters ghosts, he speaks quibble, and casually says the corresponding articles to reprimand, and the other party is speechless.
In less than two hours, dozens of old backlog cases have been tried, and many of them have been corrected by him.
At this time, another ghost was pressed up by the servants. The other party was wearing a robe and dressed as a scholar. Seeing this person, Chang Jin felt very cordial, and was just about to get up to say hello.
How do you know that as soon as this scholar was dragged to the hall, he scolded: "You dog official, let me go quickly, our father and son." My father is guilty, and he is punished by the king's law, where can he be at the mercy of you dead ghosts...... Sue you, there is no Zhaoxue for great injustice, and my heart will not die. Even if I go to the underworld and see the king of the ten halls, I must sue me."
"Oh" Chang Jin was dazed by the scolding, and hurriedly looked at the scroll in his hand. His Royal Highness's name is Xi Fangping, and the crime is to falsely accuse others, so he was caught by the ghost and put into the Chenghuang Yin Division, and was imprisoned after the trial.
Seeing this file, Chang Jin immediately questioned, even if Xi Fangping falsely accused others, it should be judged by the Yangshi official government, how could it be that Chenghuang wrote the judgment on the file, which was obviously unreasonable.
Looking at the time, it has been several months since the trial of this case was completed, and it was exactly what happened when Wei Yuan was a city god.
If you are not wrong, this should be another unjust, false and wrongful case. Thinking of this, Chang Jin opened his mouth and said loudly: "Xi Fangping, keep your eyes open and see clearly, this master is a new city god, not a dog official, if you have grievances, you can come in detail, and this master will make decisions for you." ”
"You are the City God...... What about the dog official Wei Yuan?" "Due to the obstruction of the curtain, Xi Fangping did not see clearly the person sitting on the stage in the distance before, but now when he heard the sound and looked up, he could clearly recognize and see the appearance of the gods.
"Wei Yuan has no way, he has already laid down the altar, what grievances do you have, tell me quickly. Chang Jin urged again.
"Ask the lord of the city god to be the master, the villain Xi Fangping is the person of Wanshan Mansion......"
In the other party's narration, Chang Jin understood the general situation of the matter.
Xi Fangping's father's name is Xi Lian, who is honest by nature, and has a grudge with a rich neighbor surnamed Yang because of a quarrel. The surname sheep dies first; Soon Xi Lian also fell ill in bed, dying.
When he was about to die, Xi Lian grabbed his son's hand and cried, saying that the surnamed Yang went to the underworld first, bought the Yin Si messenger and beat him with sticks, and tortured him day and night. After speaking, Xi Lian screamed a few times and lost his breath.
At first, the descendants of the Xi family only thought that their father was talking nonsense, and when they sent someone to collect the corpse, their father's whole body was red and swollen, and it was miserable. Thinking of the words that Xi Lian shouted before, Xi Fangping was very sad, and asked his brother to explain, saying that his father was honest and loyal, with a blunt mouth and a dull tongue, and he was bullied by evil ghosts today, and he wanted to go to the underworld to avenge his father's grievances.
The elder brother naturally didn't agree, and hurriedly found someone to lock Xi Fangping in the house to guard. Who knew that he sat alone in the room, without eating or drinking, and in five or six days he was exhausted, and the yin ghost came all the way to the yin, shouted loudly, sent a complaint, and asked the lord of the city god to administer justice for his father.
The rich man surnamed Yang was very frightened when he learned about this, and used the incense power enshrined by his descendants to open the joints before appearing in court to confront him. When Wei Yuan got a bribe, he said that what Xi Fang told was not the truth and unreasonable, and then put him in prison.
"Damn" After listening to Xi Fangping's story, Chang Jin suddenly slapped the case, and said to the left and right: "Take the rich man of sheep to the palace"
"Yes" the left and right officers were ordered, and immediately turned over and left.
Chang Jin said to Xi Fangping at this time: "Don't worry, if what you say is true, this city god will seek justice for your father and son." ”
"Thank you, Lord Chenghuang. ”
After a while, the rich man surnamed Sheep brought. This man is obese, narrow-eyed, and has a mustache, and at first glance he looks treacherous.
When he came to the hall, the rich man of the sheep knelt on the ground: "The villain Yang Baocai has seen the great master of the city god Wei Yuan, and I wish the great lord of the city god the realm of improving day by day and entering the realm of the true god as soon as possible." ”
"Hehe, you are a clever person, raise your head and see if this master is Wei Yuan. Chang Jin smiled when he heard this. Although this person's sycophants were a little vulgar, his tone was extremely sincere. It makes people feel very comfortable.
"Who are you?" the man in the hall did not know himself, and the rich man of the sheep narrowed his eyes and asked in some surprise.
"Bold, Wei Yuan has no way, he has been knocked off the altar, this is the new City God Chang Master. One of the officers immediately opened his mouth and reprimanded.
"Lord Chenghuang is above, forgive the little one for not knowing Mount Tai. After Wei Yuan took office as the city god, he ignored everything and deserved to be knocked off the altar. Master Chang is wise and martial at a glance, and when he becomes a city god, he is the blessing of the people of my Wanshan Mansion, and the little one will tell the descendants of the Yang family later, and give more incense to the city god lord......"
