Li Ying slapped the table with a startled wood again, and he said sharply: "Who is in the hall?

Li Mao preemptively said: "Li Mao, a grass farmer, a person from Jixiang County, doesn't know why he was brought to the court. ”

Li Ying looked at the old lady of the Zhu family: "Woman, why are you kneeling under the hall?"

Zhu's wife said calmly: "My son was beaten while selling vegetables four days ago, and he was seriously injured and has not been able to get up yet. ”

Li Ying asked, "Who was that beating? Was it the young man next to you?"

After he finished asking, he looked at the housekeeper standing beside the servant quietly, and the housekeeper bowed his head slightly, and his face was determined.

The old lady of the Zhu family looked at Li Mao, and Li Mao smiled politely back.

Mu Xi is right, Li Mao is dignified, if you don't understand his personality and only look at the surface, then you still think he is a personable and pretty gentleman.

The onlookers naturally knew his character, and they all shouted and scolded in low voices:

"Little brute with a wolf's heart and dog's lungs, sooner or later, there will be a day when you cry!"

"No one can cure the Li family?"

"Officials protect each other, who will govern him? It is better to expect the officials to govern him than to expect the gods to manifest themselves. ”

"What kind of garlic is loaded? Is this still a trial? It's Li Mao's vegetable seller, I've seen it!"

The old lady of the Zhu family did not answer Li Ying's inquiry, she looked at Li Mao and muttered: "As the old saying goes, the people don't fight with the officials, because the arms can't twist the thighs." My son was beaten on the head and bleeding, with broken bones and tendons, and was carried home like a dead man. ”

"I feel sad in my heart, but I can only be sad, who made me a powerless and powerless common man? Ordinary people, break their teeth and swallow blood, just be able to live and live, and you can't expect too many ......."

Li Ying was impatient, and asked in shock: "Woman, you don't want to mumble, why did you come to the court?"

The old lady of the Zhu family smiled strangely, slowly turned around, slowly puffed up her chest and raised her head, she stared at Li Ying and said, "Why do you knowingly ask, why did I come to the court? Don't you know?"

"I want to get justice!"

As soon as these words were uttered, the old woman erupted violently.

She stood up and shouted at the onlookers angrily: "I am just a powerless and powerless old woman, a man dies early, he gritted his teeth and pulled his son up, there is absolutely no delusion to follow his son to enjoy glory and wealth, I just want my son to live a safe and healthy life, and it is best to marry a daughter-in-law and give me a grandson as soon as possible!"

"That's all I thought, is it too much?"

My son sells some vegetables to feed the family, and he can earn a few copper baht from morning to night all day long? I am afraid that if these copper baht are thrown in front of the old man, the big man will not bother to pick them up. ”

"But the old man didn't let us earn, it's this person - it's this Li Mao, he took a group of house slaves around to arrest and beat people, my son has a naïve temperament, and when he saw that people smashed all the guys he ate, he couldn't help but want to resist, but he was almost beaten to death......"

"Shut up, shut up for me!" Hearing this, Li Ying was shocked and angry, and slapped the stunned wood again and again.

The housekeeper of the Li family realized that the situation was not good, and wanted to go up and drag away the old lady of the Zhu family, but was blocked by two officials: "Go back, this is the opening time of the court, and idle people are not allowed to enter the court without permission!"

The old lady of the Zhu family became more and more excited when she was stimulated, and she shouted hoarsely: "My son was beaten half to death, and I have no choice but to watch him breathe! God has eyes, and I have found a conscientious official to administer justice to me!"

"I didn't have hope, but early this morning, the people of the Li family went to my door to coerce and lure, trying to get me to tell lies to exonerate this Li Mao! Only then did I know that the Li family was afraid, haha, Emperor Li of Jixiang County would also be afraid? Only then did I know that there is still justice in the world, and there are still people who uphold justice for the poor!"

"The Zhu family is a grass folk family like duckweed, I haven't studied, I haven't studied the teachings of the saints, but I also know that I can't ignore my conscience!"

"If someone administers justice to my family, how can I chill the hearts of others? If my son's death is a small matter, but the Zhu family's failure is a big matter! If I break the justice of the world for the sake of money, even if my son is cured, how can I face him? How can I face the neighbors on weekdays? How can I face my father and husband underground when I die?"

Hearing this, Wang Qilin's blood surged.

He remembered the evaluation given to the old lady by the guard of Wugu Zhai: sensible and ethical.

Old ladies are tougher than many men!

The onlookers were even more enthusiastic when they heard this, and they shouted one after another: "My lord presides over justice!"

"Li Mao should be damned! Li Mao doesn't get rid of it, Jixiang County is uneasy!"

"Well said, the old lady of the Zhu family can rest assured, our brothers are willing to generously donate to your family Zhu Manfu to heal his injuries!"

The old lady ignored the people, she turned around and glared at Li Ying and shouted: "Lord Li, Lord Li, you ask me why I came, let me tell you, I came to seek justice for my son! I also came to seek justice for all the people in Jixiang County who have been oppressed by your Li family!"

After she said this, she slammed into the desk.

Die to make a clear will!

Wang Qilin was stopped outside the court, and he was too far away to come to the rescue.

The officials didn't react, and they were stunned when they saw her hit the desk headlong.

The old lady was determined to die, she gritted her teeth and slammed into the desk, sparing no effort and just wanting her brain to burst!

In an exclamation, she crashed into the desk, but she didn't hit her brain, died on the spot, and didn't even have her head bleeding!

Wang Qilin frowned, he saw that when the old lady was about to hit the desk, a soft ball of light suddenly appeared between the two, the ball of light was like dough, and the old lady's head hit it and bounced back, so it was fine.

At this time, a boy shouted: "The prefect is engaged in the adult drive!"

The crowd parted, and Zhang Ruhui, whom Wang Qilin had seen last night, walked out with a solemn face.

At this time, he was wearing an official uniform and walking in style, and he was really an official.

The official holding the water and fire stick was shocked by his momentum, and obediently put away the water and fire stick to make way for him.

Zhang Ruhui walked in and snorted coldly: "I have seen all this matter, Master Li, this official is very disappointed in you!"

Li Ying was confused, and he hurriedly said: "Master Zhang misunderstood, you misunderstood, you listen to my explanation......"

"There is no need to explain," Zhang Ru shouted loudly, "The criminal officer Li Ying, conniving at his relatives and relatives to do evil, preying on the common people, knowing the law and breaking the law, the crime will be added to the first degree! Come on, take me down and put me in prison, and I will inform the Lord Fu in the future, dismiss you, and then make a sentence!"

The officials knew the grade of official uniforms, and they had long heard that an adult in the palace had come to Jixiang County, and now that they saw Li Ying's attitude, they naturally understood Zhang Ruhui's identity, so they hurriedly went up and took Li Ying into custody.

Wang Qilin felt that something was wrong.

What's going on with that light cluster just now?

There is also Zhang Ruhui's strange performance, he is a prefect's staff, and he eats by his brain, so what he does is very weird, he has no right to put a prefect in prison, and the prefect does not have the power, let alone the power to remove the prefect.

The officials and the people didn't expect this, they fell into a frenzy, and the old lady of the Zhu family knelt down and burst into tears: "Thank you Lord Qingtian for upholding justice!"

Many people knelt down: "Meet the Lord Qingtian!"

The officials who were silent in front of Li Ying in the past turned into tigers and wolves, and went up and cut his arms back: "Corrupt officials and corrupt officials, let me go!"

Li Ying couldn't react for a while, he couldn't help but wonder if he was dreaming, why did all the people he had friends with at last night's banquet come to deal with him? Could it be that he held a Hongmen banquet last night?

The housekeeper of the Li Mansion was stunned: What is this?

Li Mao was even more stunned, he had a premonition, he wanted to be cold!

Zhang Ruyan resolutely dispatched the officials to put Li Ying in prison, and then hugged his fists and said in the direction of the imperial capital Chang'an: "This official is dedicated to serving the imperial court, since the imperial court has corrupt officials and corrupt officials, there is no reason to sit idly by." Now that the criminal officer Li Ying no longer has the right to govern Jixiang County, the magistrate of Jixiang County is temporarily represented by this official, if you have any grievances, please tell this official!"

Many people kowtowed excitedly: "Lord Qingtian!"

Wang Qilin shook his head and said, "No, it's not right for this adult." ”

Xu Da pulled him out of the crowd and whispered: "It doesn't matter if he's right or not, this is the infighting of their yamen officials, it's none of our business, let's withdraw." ”
