Chapter 125: Qingniu Town Trial
Li Yuan looked at the certificate and couldn't help but sigh: "The case of the criminal Zhou Dingfang's revenge and murder is on trial today. When Zhou Laohan raised his head, Li Yuan asked, "Your paper says that your son Zhou Dingfang was not at home on the night of Ge San's death.
Zhou Laohan said: "You can call my son to come and ask."
Li Yuan had no choice but to order: "Take someone to commit Zhou Dingfang." The subordinate sent the order to go to the prison to pick up the prisoners.
After a while, Zhou Dingfang took it to the lobby and knelt down under the hall.
Da Kui looked at it, Zhou Dingfang was dressed in prison clothes, and there were no traces of blood, and there were no scars on his arms and other places where his 'exposed' and 'flesh' were exposed.
Li Yuan asked, "Zhou Dingfang, your father beat the drum and shouted that he wanted to overturn the case for you.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Dingfang raised his head and said, "Yes, Ge San was killed by me, and the grass people have nothing to say."
Li Yuan smiled and asked, "How did you sneak into Ge San's house and kill him?"
Zhou Dingfang sighed and said: "Ge San is known in this county for stealing, kidnapping, and cheating people, he deceived my family is a good citizen, and if he couldn't steal, he set fire to retaliate. I went to his house at night in a fit of anger and killed him with a knife."
Li Yuan nodded and said, "In this way, you don't overturn the case."
Zhou Dingfang said: "The grass people do things by themselves, and I don't overturn the case."
Hearing this, Zhou Laohan hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with you, how can you kill someone?"
Li Yuan slapped the hall and shouted, "Shut up, there is no room for noise in the lobby."
Old man Zhou was startled, but then tears appeared on his face.
Li Yuan said to Zhou Laohan: "Your son has already confessed, and the facts are clear.
Zhou Laohan just cried, and he couldn't argue anymore.
Da Kui sat on the side and watched all this silently, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Zhou Laohan is a parent, seeing that his son has committed a life lawsuit, and seeing that he is about to be punished, he can't bear it, so he spares no effort to complain.
Li Yuan slapped the exclamation again, and said, "This case has been closed."
The two officials pressed Zhou Dingfang down, Zhou Laohan was still crying in the hall, Da Kui looked at it and couldn't bear it, got up and went over to help Zhou Laohan up, and comforted: "Old man, please mourn.
Da Kui said and took out ten taels of silver from his arms and handed it to Zhou Laohan, who raised his teary eyes and choked up: "My lord, my son's spleen 'sex' I know, even if the old man dies, I don't believe that he will kill."
Da Kui persuaded a few more words.Tian Feng Zhou Kai walked up to the hall and helped Zhou Laohan out of the hall.
Li Yuan bypassed the copywriting and came to Da Kui's side and said: "Lord Zhang is kind-hearted and admired.
Da Kui turned around with a smile and said, "I hope so."
Li Yuan arched his hand and said: "At this moment, the sky is getting late, and the lower officials have prepared a banquet for the adults to catch the wind and wash the dust.
Da Kui bowed his hand and saluted: "That is the case, but this official is disrespectful, please." .......
Da Kui has pity and forbearance for what happened to Zhou Laohan, but there is no other way.
Qingniu County Commander Li Yuan invited a few local squires to accompany him to catch the wind for Dakui.
Da Kui stayed in Qingniu County for only one night, and the next day he returned to Longping.
This time, Da Kui returned to Longping, but he had another idea.500 soldiers set up camp in Wu County.At first, they lived in the mansion.Zhang's mansion was vast.500 soldiers lived in it, although it was a little crowded, but it was quite lively.
Later, Meng Ge led the daily 'drill' practice.The 200 township warriors recruited by Master Feng were also 'mixed' among them.Da Kui ordered people to build a house near the left side of Zhang's mansion.Quan Zuo military camp.District Sledgehammer and ten apprentices stepped up to build weapons.For a while, Zhang's mansion was in full swing.At the end of March.Yang Xiaohu took Da Kui's letter and went to Yingtian.
After all, the preliminary examination for the astronomical examination will be held in mid-March. Tang and Wen Taowu are quite 'fine'.
The Yacha scattered all over the south of the Yangtze River have also come back. Master Feng has been taking care of this aspect. Master Feng has gathered the information collected together and reported it to Da Kui for knowing. Da Kui can't help but be a little suspicious. I didn't see how the news came back from the yacha. Master Feng immediately explained. It turned out that the yamen had brought carrier pigeons with each of them when they went out. This news was sent back by carrier pigeons.
Da Kui couldn't help but be shocked when he heard the news; More than half of the officials in Jiangnan, no matter how big or small, were guilty of corruption and illegal acts.
As the old saying goes: the law does not blame the public, there are more than 500 prefectures and counties in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are thousands of officials.
Da Kui thought about it again and again, and finally came up with an idea.First Meng Ge and Panbu led a hundred 'elite' soldiers to rush to Shunyuan pretending to be businessmen.All the way to verify the evidence of the criminals on the list.There is another thing that is particularly important.That is, to find out the whereabouts of Fang Jiutian, the poisonous king of Miaojiang.Although the state capitals have issued documents for sea fishing, it is tantamount to a fool's dream to hold such a big thief with the ability of the government.
Since Fang Jiutian is lawless in Miao Jiang, he naturally has a big backer, but no matter what kind of backer he has, it is the right thing to find out where he is going first, and then find a way to get rid of him.
Now Da Kui's heart is in great trouble is Wang Fu and his henchmen, and at that moment he ordered Tian Feng and Zhou Kai to lead a hundred 'fine' soldiers to Huguang Province, to thoroughly investigate all the illegal evidence of Wang Fu and his henchmen, and as soon as there is news, the flying pigeon will pass the book back.
These arrangements are in place, Da Kui immediately returned to the back house and said goodbye to Huang Ying.
At this time, Huang Ying was practicing calligraphy in the room, and the two maids accompanied him.
Da Kui came to Huang Ying's side and smiled: "Ying'er is so Yaxing."
Huang Ying is still a serious writing, but it is a song of Mulan 'flower': Dongcheng gradually feels that the scenery is good, the wrinkles 'wave' pattern welcomes guests, the green poplar smoke is light, the red apricot branch is 'spring', the floating growth hates and the entertainment is less, Ken loves the daughter and smiles lightly, persuades the sun to hold the wine, and leaves the evening light to the 'flower'.
This poem was written by Qian Weiyan during the Northern Song Dynasty.Mulan 'flower' was originally a tune.There are countless literati and writers who wrote the lyrics for this tune.Among them, Qian Weiyan is the best.
Huang Ying's handwriting is beautiful, and Da Kui feels comfortable looking at it, although he is not very literate.
When Huang Ying's poem was finished, Da Kui couldn't help but applaud. Huang Ying smiled and said, "Husband, you know the meaning of this poem."
Da Kui shook his head when he heard this, and Huang Ying smiled lightly and said: "Although this poem is written about landscapes, it is a metaphor for floating life, less happiness, and more suffering." Although Da Kui has no ink on his chest, he can naturally hear what Huang Ying said.
Da Kui gently wrapped his arms around Huang Ying's slender waist and whispered softly in his ear: "This is how people are born in life, and everyone comes to the world crying. This means that a life must be full of bitterness to be considered complete. If a person has a stroke in his life and cannot afford to be happy, then there will be no motivation to work hard."
Huang Ying sighed faintly: "I am a 'female' son's family, I only hope that my husband can always be by my side, even if it is coarse tea and light rice, I just hope that my life will be safe and secure and there will be no more disputes."
Da Kui earnestly persuaded: "If all the officials enjoy all the glory and wealth at home, then wouldn't this world be 'chaotic'." After a pause, Da Kui continued: "Your husband is a toiling life, destined to run in all directions, and his own happiness is put aside for the sake of the suffering of the people in Jiangnan."
Huang Ying was shocked when she heard this, put down her pen, turned around and asked, "You still have to go out." Da Kui has just returned from Yingtian less than a month ago, and this time he is going to go out of the 'door'.
Da Kui gently hugged Huang Ying in his arms and said softly: "The spies have come to report, Jiangnan officials have many corrupt and illegal acts, and they have to go out to do things for their husbands, and they may not be able to come back for a long time, and at most they will be a few years, and at least a few months."
Huang Ying broke free from Da Kui's embrace and said, "I won't let you go out." And as he spoke, he burst into tears.
Da Kui smiled and comforted: "Ying'er is obedient, I went out to do serious business, and it's not that I won't come back." Da Kui said and reached out to gently wipe the tears from Huang Ying's face.
To tell the truth, Da Kui is reluctant to leave Huang Ying, but he has no choice but to shoulder heavy responsibilities, and he can't help Da Kui. Thinking of the acquaintance and love of his husband and wife, they have come together after 'waves' and twists and turns, and now they have to separate again.
Huang Ying just cried in a huff, and said in a half-loud voice: "If you go out, I will follow, and I will follow you wherever you go."
Da Kui couldn't help but laugh and said, "I'll go to visit the Qinglou.
Huang Ying was amused, and pouted, "Then I have to follow, if you dare to touch the 'flowers' and mess with the grass, I will click you." As he spoke, he stretched out his right hand and made a scissor-shaped gesture with the two fingers of the 'spring' onion-like food.
Da Kui laughed and said: "How can I do that, I still have no heirs, if you click me, then I won't be the last one?
Huang Ying raised her fist in shame and anger, who expected Da Kui to hug her in his arms, bow his head and 'kiss' Huang Ying's cherry 'lips'.......
The 'spring' wind was once infinitely good.
On the second day, Da Kui ordered someone to prepare a carriage and horses, and Huang Ying took two maids to get into the soft sedan carriage in the lead.
Da Kui also selected 50 'fine' strong soldiers to accompany him, each of whom was a person in the rivers and lakes dressed as a dart.
Fifty-one horsemen escorted the convoy in the middle, all the way to the first destination, Raozhou Mansion, Jiangxi Province.
According to investigations, Yin Panke, the governor of Raozhou, colluded with 'smuggling' traders to sell 'smuggling' official salt, and received nearly one million taels of dirty silver in one year and six months after taking office.
Raozhou.Located in the northeast of Jiangxi Province.Dakui starts from Longping, all the way to Xiaoxing, overnight stays, and heads southwest to the half-moon side to the boundary of Raozhou..
