She glanced at her father and sister who were kneeling on the ground, and her younger brother who was sleeping in her arms, and her eyes flashed with forbearance.

Kneeling down in the hall with a plop, she kowtowed heavily and said:

"If I got married, I was someone else's family, what I did had nothing to do with my mother's family, the land was not bought by them, and they didn't benefit a penny, and I asked the county magistrate to judge right and wrong and let them go."

"You, bold!"

Zhu Xianling had long known that Su Qingyan had sharp teeth and sharp mouth, but he never thought that he would be speechless with a word.

He rolled a pair of mouse eyes and looked at the man in black who was hiding behind the screen and did not show his face.

The man in black made a motion to wipe his neck, causing him to swallow nervously.

Is this for him to put the people of the Su family to death, or to threaten him that if he doesn't do this well, he will be put to death!

No matter what, he can't let go of these people in the Su family.

Zhu Xianling patted the shocked wood and scolded sternly: "You came just in time, and the official was about to send someone to arrest you."

If you don't raise your godfather, you do such a thing that will harm the world, your parents must bear the primary responsibility, and none of you can escape! ”

"My lord, the laws of my Daji country stipulate that slaves, houses, homesteads, fertile fields, and mountains can all be bought and sold, and there is no rule that it cannot exceed much, I just bought some fertile land, two hills, I don't know what I did wrong?"

"I don't know what's wrong!"

Zhu Xianling sneered, as if waiting for her to say this, and said majestically:

"At this time, it was a bitter cold, and it was a time when there was a shortage of food at home, and many people sold their land to survive in order to survive.

But at this time, you are buying a large amount of land at a low price and merging maliciously, you are disrupting the market order, and you dare to say that you are innocent? "If I buy a large amount of land at a low price, maliciously merge, and disrupt the market order, I naturally dare not say that I am innocent, but I don't!" Su Qingyan bit the word "low price" and took out a piece of paper from his sleeve.

raised his voice, and said word by word: "I am strictly in accordance with the market price, the price of twelve taels of silver per mu, and the purchase and sale of fertile land are all voluntary, and have nothing to do with winter, have nothing to do with conscription, and there is no malicious merger."

Because whether it's winter or summer, or autumn or spring, I buy it just because I want to buy it, and those people want to sell.

Buying and selling has become a business, I don't know what crime the county magistrate wants to cure me? Could it be that I don't break the law by buying five acres, but I break the law by buying five hundred acres? Have I ever paid less than a cent of land tax?

Moreover, from a human and moral point of view. The people who sold me the land were dying of starvation, and they couldn't get by, so they had such a helpless move.

I don't buy it, no one buys it, they just starve to death.

I bought their land at the original price and gave them a chance to survive.

They can also take out part of this money to buy land sold by others, and I should have merit instead of fault! ”

Her words, word by word, sonorous and powerful.

Not only did the county order be suppressed, but the officials in the hall and the people in front of the door also felt that she was reasonable, and carefully discussed: "Yes, people are normal business, why did they maliciously merge?" ”

"You speak carefully, can't you see the intention of the county order?"

"You can see what it can do, this can't be without a king's law." The man argued quietly, but still unconsciously shrank back, not wanting to cause trouble.

Fortunately, there were many people at the scene, the sound was chaotic, and the county order could not be heard clearly.

However, even if he heard it clearly, he didn't have time to care about these people who could only talk about it at this time.

He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and wanted to ask for help from the master on the side.

But the master has been sitting quietly on the small table beside him, writing the quotations of the court judge.

When recording Su Qingyan's words, he praised in his heart very inauthenticly: Wonderful! If someone comes again at this time to testify for her in court, then the county magistrate wants to impose charges on her. If you button a big hat, you can't button it.

Before this idea could be waved in his mind, he heard someone outside the door shouting: "Knock on Lord Qingtian, I am a person related to this case, please let me in!" ”

The man ran in a hurry, and spoke intermittently, because he was nervous and faintly crying, and it seemed like he couldn't wait to avenge his grievances.

Zhu Xianling thought that this was a good opportunity to bring down Su Qingyan, so he hurriedly stabilized his expression, and said politely: "What grievances do you have, quickly say it, there is this official to make the decision for you, and you will not be wronged!" ”

The prefectural magistrate is really a rare good official! Why are there so many unfavorable remarks circulating in the market?

The man in his thirties was flattered, and first kowtowed outside the hall, and then trotted into the hall and knelt down.

Immediately after that, the second, the third, the fourth...... The fifteenth, all said that they were related to this case and the seller of the land sold to Su Qingyan.

The county order is not good to let in the first one, and stop the remaining fourteen, so that they can all come in.

He glared at Su Qingyan majestically, and deliberately asked the fifteen people who testified in court: "Tell all your grievances!" This official will definitely make decisions for you! ”

There were both men and women, young and old, the youngest looked to be only thirteen or fourteen years old, and they all looked so nervous that they were about to cry, and none of them came out to reply first. For a moment, the silent pin drop in the hall could be heard.

The county commander secretly scolded these Diao people for their ink, his expression was not obvious, and he shouted the first man about thirty years old who rushed in: "You speak first." ”

"County, county magistrate."

The man swallowed nervously, walked on his knees, took two steps forward, kowtowed, and said, "The county commander is tolerant, the villain is not here to redress grievances, but to testify on behalf of the Su Dong family."

Su Dong's family bought the villain's land, but the villain voluntarily sold it to her, and it was according to the market price.

Please, beg the county commander, don't embarrass Su Dongjia. ”

"What? You! You guys! You're all here to speak for her? Zhu Xianling changed his tone in an instant.

The man in his thirties shuddered, and he wanted to take back the kind words of the county commander just now.

"Yes, sir."

"Ask the county to be gracious, don't embarrass Su Dong's family."

More than a dozen people behind him hurriedly followed and kowtowed together.

The words they say are not neat, but they express the same meaning.

Zhu Xianling never expected that by letting this group of Diao people come in, he would lift a stone and hit his own feet, and his angry beard was crooked.

But the black-clothed killer was still listening, and he couldn't let people go directly, so he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot for a while, and he almost didn't get up, and he turned around twice.

The man in black secretly cursed a fool, and said rashly: "Bai Lingjun has been convicted, as a godfather whom he personally recognized, you must be connected, and I will not let you leave if I say anything today." ”

Su Qingyan heard this sudden cold voice, and instantly understood the cause and effect of all this.

It turned out that it had nothing to do with her buying more than 500 acres of land at one time, these people wanted to use them to contain Bai Lingjun.

"Yes, yes, someone! Put them in jail! ”

Zhu Xianling didn't know what crime Bai Lingjun had committed, he only knew that he couldn't afford to provoke the crown prince and the queen, and if he had a reason, he wanted to take someone.

Liu covered his purse, and his eyes were sour.

The kid wrote this kind of thing with a cinnabar pen, and it turned out that it was really to protect them.

Just about to speak, he suddenly heard Su Qingyan say: "The county magistrate is not in a hurry, Bai Lingjun did worship my father and mother as his godparents, and he was commensurate with my brother and sister, but then the relationship broke up, and he had already written a severance letter and broke off the relationship."
