The more Zhao Mancang's father spoke, the happier he became, and the people in the village who heard his words were also envious.

As for Zhao Laosan...... They all thought Zhao Laosan was stupid.

However, at this moment, someone ran over to this side: "Mancang Dad, someone from the county is looking for you!" They said that Mancang was almost beaten to death, so let you go and see it. ”

Zhao Mancang was injured, Zhu Xunmiao asked the Zhu family's subordinates to talk to his family, and now this person has come over.

Chapter 46: Gou County Order

The father of the original owner of Li Qingzhi's body used to be a county magistrate.

Li Qingzhi is clear about how the county order decides a case, and he probably knows how the county order will judge this case.

Li Qingzhi had managed to learn about this county order in Chongcheng County before.

The original owner's father, Li Zhao, was a man, although he could also be an official, but he was only a county magistrate in a poor county.

The county order of such a wealthy county in Chongcheng County must be a jinshi to be a jinshi, and the current county order of Chongcheng County is a fellow jinshi with a little background, surnamed Gou.

Gou County Order has no sense of existence in Chongcheng County.

He is kind to others, he never offends anyone, he makes a little money, but he does not overdo it.

Chongcheng County is very wealthy, and there are many businessmen, and I don't know how many ships dock at the wharf every day...... The money of Gou County's order is basically from merchants and wharves. And the businessmen actually wish he wanted money, even if he didn't want it, he would take the initiative to send it, and he felt at ease when he sent it.

As for deciding cases...... The county order cannot sentence people to death, and major cases must be sent to the higher authorities for judgment, and as for small cases, Gou County's order is fairly fair when it is decided.

The Hong family is a scholarly family, and has an excellent reputation in the circle of scholars in Chongcheng County, but the highest reputation in the family is only Xiucai, Gou County Order does not have to be afraid at all, and will not favor the Hong family when the case is decided.

The case itself is not partial.

That being the case, he will definitely report to the official, and only by making things big will the next Zhao Mancang not appear.

Otherwise, if the Hong family finds a little boy for their little master, how can it be good?

The public hall in this era is actually quite small, and it is not like in the TV series, where a group of officials stand neatly on both sides.

Well, there are servants, but they look quite casual, and some people greet Zhu Qian with a smile.

Zhu Qian, as a businessman, was a person of three religions and nine ranks, and he knew some of them.

However, the county government of Chongcheng County is much better than the county government of the original owner's father, and the county government where the original owner's father worked back then looked in tatters.

In the memory of the original owner, sometimes those people would fight in the court, and the original owner once rolled up his sleeves to pull the fight, and he didn't know who kicked him twice.

The original owner was the son of the county commander when he was young, and although he couldn't study, he has always lived a very happy life, and he also has a wide range of friends...... It's a pity that there was a sudden change later, and the entire Yuxian County was flooded.

Jin Xiaoye didn't enter the court, but Zhu Qian took Zhu Xunmiao, Li Qingzhi and Zhao Mancang in, and those present, as well as Li Qingzhi, after they left the Hong family, they followed Hong Hui who came to the county seat by boat.

Hong Hui originally wanted to find Li Qingzhi to pay compensation and suppress this matter, but he never thought that he would be brought to court in the end.

Because of this, his face was very ugly, and he never imagined that Zhu Xunmiao would report to the official.

Zhu Xunmiao didn't have an accident again!

Although there was a scholar who injured his arm, he had never seen or heard of this scholar before, and he was obviously incompetent, even if he had a broken hand...... He can just lose some money, why bother to report to the official?

As for Zhao Mancang, this is their family's descendant!

Zhao Mancang didn't serve his brother well, what happened if he was beaten a few times? His brother is still a child!

Although he thought so, Hong Hui never showed it on his face, and even apologized to Li Qingzhi apologetically.

"It's none of Brother Hong's business." Li Qingzhi showed a weak smile towards Hong Hui.

Hong Hui can act, and he will act too.

While the two were talking, Gou County's order came.

Gou Xianling is a white and fat middle-aged man, he is at most one meter seven in height, but his weight is one hundred and eighteen.

As soon as the chubby Gou County Order arrived, he began to inquire about the case.

The facts of the case were stated by Zhu Xunmiao and Zhu Qian, and Li Qingzhi was lying on a stretcher and did not need him to do anything.

And the final verdict of this case is similar to what Li Qing obsessively thought.

In Daqi, human trafficking is very rampant, and many large families will buy slaves, but buying and selling is buying and selling, and murder is still illegal.

It's just that this is an ancient society, not a modern society governed by the rule of law, so even if a rich person kills a slave at home, there are many ways to escape responsibility.

For example, if you put a charge on this slave and say that he is stealing, and then tell the government that you can beat people to death in a fair way.

Some of the slaves they bought had no relatives or causes, and after they were killed, they said that they were sick and died, and no one would pursue them.

Being locked up in the quarry to dig stones like the original owner did before is even more inadmissible and ineffective.

However, here in Chongcheng County, the people who work in large households are basically locals, and they also sign a living deed, if such people are killed, their families will definitely come to the door to make trouble.

But even so...... Most of the time, as long as the big families give more money, the slave's family will not report to the official.

Li Qingzhi talked to Zhao Mancang and had a certain understanding of Zhao Mancang's family.

Zhao Mancang's father was an alcoholic, and as for Zhao Mancang's mother...... She is a woman who is diametrically opposed to Jin Xiaoye, even if she is often beaten and scolded by Zhao Mancang's father, she is also obedient.

If Zhao Mancang was accidentally killed by the young master of the Hong family, his father would most likely take the money to settle the matter.

Fortunately, Zhao Mancang is fine.

And in the future, the Hong family can no longer let their little master be so indulgent.

The verdict of Gou County's order was in accordance with the "Great Qi Law".

If a madman kills or injures someone by mistake, the law requires the madman to be imprisoned, or the madman's family is put in custody.

The young master of the Hong family is a madman and a child, and after consulting the Hong family's opinion, the sentence is to let the Hong family supervise him.

If he hurts others again in the future, the responsibility will be borne by the rest of the Hong family.

In addition, Zhao Mancang was injured in one body, and the Hong family wanted to compensate him for ten taels of silver, and Li Qingzhi had an arm broken, and the Hong family wanted to compensate him for fifty taels.

The difference in the amount of compensation between the two sides is so much because Zhao Mancang is a descendant of the Hong family, while Li Qingzhi is not, and Li Qingzhi has a broken arm from a scholar, which is more serious than a child being beaten and bruised all over in the eyes of most people.

In this world, there is always a lot of injustice.

The context of the whole matter is clear, and the case of Gou County's order is quickly decided, and everyone has no objections.

The Hong family has no way to object, the two injured are lying in the court, this is real evidence, and if Hong Zhao is really called to the court to deal with it, it will only make the Hong family even more embarrassed.

As for Li Qingzhi...... Li Qingzhi knew very well that if he chose to talk to the Hong family in private, he might be able to make the Hong family pay more money, but this was not what he wanted.

He hoped that the little young master of the Hong family would be taken care of, and no one else would be harmed.

The case was concluded, Hong Hui looked apologetic, and apologized to Li Qingzhi: "Brother Li, today's incident is really sorry. ”

"It's okay, Brother Hong can be optimistic about his younger brother in the future." Li Qing insisted.

Hong Hui immediately assured: "Brother Li, rest assured, I will definitely be optimistic about my younger brother in the future." ”

When the two sides were talking, Zhao Mancang grabbed Li Qingzhi's uninjured arm with thin fingers, trembling all the time.

In fact, he was trembling the whole time, and it was really scary for a child to go to court.

However, Li Qingzhi talked to him for a while before, and even mentioned Zhao Xiaodou...... Zhao Mancang knew Zhao Xiaodou, and he trusted Li Qingzhi more and more.

Li Qingzhi held Zhao Mancang's hand to comfort him.

He likes children, and Zhao Mancang's pitiful appearance can't help but make him feel distressed. Fortunately, Hong Hui didn't say much, he glanced at Zhao Mancang beside Li Qingzhi, and then left.

As soon as Li Qingzhi left, Zhu Qian immediately beckoned the subordinates of the Zhu family to carry the people, and carried Li Qingzhi and Zhao Mancang to the Zhu family.

They met a lot of people on the road, and every time they met someone, Zhu Qian would briefly talk about today's events: "My child went to Hong's house to participate in the poetry meeting, and when he saw the young master of the Hong family beating someone, he stepped forward with his friends to stop him, but he never thought that he was injured by the young master of the Hong family in the end......"

Talking all the way like this, they soon came to the Zhu family.

Zhu Qian asked those subordinates to take Zhao Mancang to eat something and sleep, and when he saw that only Zhu Xunmiao, Li Qingzhi and Jin Xiaoye Xu Qifei were left, he said: "That Hong Hui is not a good thing, you must be careful in the future!" ”

"Daddy?" Zhu Xunmiao didn't react a little, after he was bitten, he did feel that the Hong family had a problem with Hong Hui, but Hong Hui behaved personably in the court and recognized his mistakes quickly, so he felt that the hurt things of the young master of the Hong family might have nothing to do with Hong Hui. Hong Hui was busy studying, and he probably didn't know that his brother liked to beat people.

Zhu Qian said: "That Honghui City Mansion is very deep, but I have been traveling south and north for so many years, and his little flowery intestines can still be seen, it is better not to offend such a person, since he has already offended, he must beware!" ”

After speaking, Zhu Qian looked at Zhu Xunmiao again: "Actually, he approached you without any sincerity, he just wanted to get money from you!" ”

A person like Zhu Qian, who has climbed up from the bottom, sees people very accurately.

After Zhu Xunmiao met Hong Hui, he helped find chrysanthemums and helped buy drinks and snacks...... Although Hong Hui said that he wanted to give money, Zhu Xunmiao didn't want it himself, but something like chrysanthemum wine, wouldn't the Hong family, who had been rich for so many years, get it?

Hong Hui did this, didn't he just want Zhu Xunmiao to pay him?

And he also knows that the Hong family relies on pawning things to maintain decency, although the Hong family goes to Fucheng every time to do things, but they, the merchants, are the most well-informed.

However, although Zhu Qian saw through it at the time, he didn't say anything, he didn't care about this money, and he didn't care about Hong Hui's little calculations, as long as his son could enter the literati circle in Chongcheng County through Hong Hui.

But what Zhu Qian didn't expect was that his son just went to a poetry meeting and something happened!

The Hong family actually allowed their little master to beat a child under the age of ten!

Zhu Qian went to a big family at a young age to be a person, and he knew how difficult it was to give people a person.

The main family he met at the beginning was not bad, but he still suffered a lot when he suddenly left his parents.

Zhao Mancang was beaten like this, and there was no way to ask for help...... Zhu Qian really felt uncomfortable when he thought about it.

As for the Hong family...... The Hong family is high up and does not treat the subordinates as people, this kind of family, there is no need to make friends.

Zhu Qian didn't dare to say that he was a good person, he had lived for so many years, and he had done things for lack of virtue, but he would never care about the life and death of others.

Zhu Qian briefly analyzed Hong Hui, and after listening to it, Zhu Xunmiao was like being struck by lightning.

What his father said, he hadn't thought of before!

Zhu's predecessor was entangled by his son, and thanked Li Qingzhi again.

Zhu Xunmiao said that Li Qingzhi was bitten to save him, and if it wasn't for Li Qingzhi, his face might have been bitten.

If you really have bite marks on your face, Zhu Xunmiao doesn't know what people will say when she goes out in the future. At that time, even if he goes well in the scientific examination, his career will not be smooth.

"No thanks, Xun Miao also followed me to save people, so there will be this unjustified disaster." Li Qing insisted.

"How can this be said to be a calamity? You saved a child! Zhu Qian sighed: "You are all good people. ”

"Speaking of that kid...... Uncle Zhu, can you let him do things in the Zhu family? Li Qing insisted: "The father of this child...... Not very reliable. ”
