The golden autumn is cool, and the fruit is fragrant.

Lord Yan, the deposed envoy of Henan Province, came to Bianzhou to assess the governance of local officials.

heard about the case, and the person involved in the case was arraigned-Di Ying.

Nineteen-year-old Di Ying, wearing shackles and shackles, messy hair, and a dirty prison uniform, was escorted by the officials and walked into the main hall step by step.

The figure is upright, and he is not afraid of the "killing sticks" of the officials, the big and small officials sitting around, and the chief judge of the upper department.

His hands were locked, and he tried his best to get closer, waving his hands in a salute, and his voice was clear.

"Humble position, Bianzhou judge, Di Ying, I've seen my lord."

After finishing, he straightened up and looked directly at the presiding judge in the hall between his eyebrows.

Lord Yan's heart sighed lightly, sat up straight, released his official authority, and looked at Di Ying with a brow and full of oppression.

"You are a criminal official, why do you still dare to call yourself a lowly officer?!" He asked.

"Your Excellency's words are wrong."

Di Ying faced that coercion, listened and asked, calmly.

hugged his fists and said: "Judging the case with evidence, judging and punishing with evidence, there is no evidence, why do you become a criminal if you are lowly in your position?" ”

Lord Yan leaned back in his chair.

There was an imperceptible smile in his eyes.

He also felt that the case was deeply problematic, so he deliberately arraigned it in court.

Seeing that Di Yingfeng's eyes were clear and her attitude was upright, she was even more sure that there was something strange about the case.

"If you feel that you have no evidence, you must be wronged. Tell me why I'm involved in the case. ”

Lord Yan said, waving his hand, and motioning for the official to open the handcuffs and other tools for him.

Judge Cao, who was sitting at the end of the hall, immediately became a little anxious when he saw this, but he was swept away by Lord Yan, and he didn't dare to move.

His superiors, the observation made Lord Liu a little uneasy at the moment.

Judge Cao was a disciple of his own family recruited by him, so as soon as the case broke out, he instinctively listened to Judge Cao's words and arrested the insignificant Di Ying and took him to prison.

Not tried, not asked.

Now, he had a vague feeling that something bad was wrong.

Di Ying was in good spirits.

He was falsely accused and imprisoned, and he waited for the moment when he could be tried in court before he could avenge himself.

He believes that no matter whether the officials in the hall are faint or clear, as long as they can give him a chance to speak, no one will dare to let him die in front of many people!

"My lord, before you open your mouth to appeal, please arrange for your subordinates, Shopkeeper Cao, Dr. Liu, and a group of young men to come to the hall before you open your mouth to appeal. and, bring the bitter master of the case, Wang Dashun, to the court. ”

When Lord Yan heard this, his eyes moved slightly.

I said in my heart: This kid is interesting. In order to prevent someone from getting in the way, he made it clear that he would personally arrange for a trustworthy person to announce people.

At the same time, it was also to tell him that the case involved a certain person, or several officials, who were present.

In addition, it also contains the meaning of warning those officials involved in the case not to act rashly, otherwise they will not give him face as the presiding judge.

Thinking through these layers, Lord Yan's fingers moved slightly.

He is already old, and in addition to painting and craftsmanship in this life, what he desires most is to try his best to find talents for the imperial court.

It's a pity that he has traveled all over the three mountains and five mountains, but no one has ever been able to enter his eyes.

Now, when he saw this young Di Ying, he suddenly had the urge to paint for him.

But well......

Let's see how much this kid can do.

Lord Yan turned his head sideways and bowed down to the captain of the guard behind him.

The captain of the guard took the order.

Di Ying watched quietly, and only then did she continue to speak.

"Twelve days ago, on the 7th of September, at 3 o'clock in the morning, a young woman with a six-month-old baby boy in her arms went to the 'Jihuai Pharmacy' to seek medicine for the baby.

I don't know how long had passed since the woman arrived at the pharmacy with the child in her arms, but the child's face was burned red, his lips were blue and purple, his eyes were red, and his skin was chapped and chapped because of the high fever.

and has developed convulsions.

However, because the little woman couldn't come up with enough money, Dr. Liu from the pharmacy didn't accept the doctor when he saw this, and asked the little woman to put the baby on the ground.

The humble duty happened to pass by, so he was angry in his chest, and before he could reason with Dr. Liu, he wanted to go forward and rescue the baby first. ”

When Di Ying said this, his eyes were already red.

He clenched his fists and said with great grief: "Although I am a criminal officer, I have learned medical skills since I was a child, and I am sure that I can help such an emergency.

Unexpectedly, he was driven out by the shopkeeper of the pharmacy, Dr. Liu, and his buddies, and was beaten with a stick.

They even arrogantly said to the lowly position: 'You are a little eight-rank judge, you are not a thing, what are you doing?'

Don't ask, who opened our pharmacy? It's really a dog with a mouse, nosy, be careful of the black gauze hat is not guaranteed! ’

My lord, I don't understand it.

How can he be so insulted by a group of vicious dogs who have studied hard for more than ten years, won the gold list of boiling oil on the top of the liver, wearing a court uniform and stepping on the land of the country? Eight grades of judgment, isn't it an official? ”

Di Ying remembered the process of being beaten and humiliated, and after taking a deep breath, she continued with a little choked up: "Humble duty...... has the heart to save people, but has no power to return to heaven......

Child...... Didn't hold on......

Forcefully, just like that, he was dragged to death because of a cold wind and a high fever!

Just die alive at the hands of these animals!!

The child's mother is gone......

The moment she found the child breathing, she hit her head on the doorpost of the pharmacy......"

Di Ying's tears finally fell.

He grabbed the placket of his chest, opened his eyes full of infinite grief, and stared at Judge Cao and Observer Liu with endless anger.

"The animals, after the death of the mother and the son, and when the husband and his father came to complain, put all the blame on the lowly ones.

If they do not go to court and do not interrogate, they will be put on death row for the crime of practicing medicine without a license, interfering indiscriminately, abusing silver needles and drugs, etc., causing the death of the baby and causing the mother to commit suicide! ”

Di Ying closed her eyes deeply, wiped away the resentment in her eyes, and then looked towards the top place.

He spoke calmly: "If you don't believe it, you can test the scars on your humble body." Just ask, being beaten like that is because the pharmacy people do not like to meddle in the diagnosis and treatment of patients.

At that time, many people on the street saw it and could testify to it.

Since the 'Jihuai Pharmacy' even dared to beat the court officials, it usually left a lot of notoriety among the people. Just look it up. ”

When Lord Yan heard him say this, he nodded secretly in his heart.

I appreciate Di Ying's factual and well-founded words.

Based on this statement alone, he could already conclude that Di Ying was really wronged.

At the same time, he could also see that the calm on Di Ying's face at this time contained an endless storm of indignation against the injustice of the world.

There has never been a shortage of officials in the imperial court, but there has always been a shortage of such good officials with both ability and political integrity and righteousness.

Lord Yan stroked Chang Ran, and was about to speak.

Unexpectedly, Judge Cao rushed out, pointed at Di Ying and reprimanded: "The vertical son is ignorant, how dare he talk in the court?!"

You said that there was a stick wound on your body, it was obviously because you were afraid that you would be punished when the woman was killed by her head, and you ran wildly and tried to resist, and you were blocked with a stick by the official who captured you!

Regarding this point, the official can also find human witnesses to corroborate! ”
