Chapter 68 Bring to justice
Three or four people went out for most of the hour, and came back with some wine and meat, all of which were cold, and even a few live chickens.
Everyone sat around the fire and chatted and drank, so greedy that Li Baohua, Wang Shijie, Wu Zhong and other criminals gurgled in their stomachs and swallowed saliva all night. The group of people of unknown origin who came to rob the prison did not appear again, presumably because they were afraid that the rebels' brigade would search for them, so they fled out of the city overnight.
Early in the morning of the second day, he asked people to go to the Zhong family's thatched cottage to find Lin Fengsheng, and told him that a group of people of unknown origin came to rob the prison last night, and said: "Elder Mo and Xiting Daoist The two seniors mean that the alliance leader is invited to be judged immediately, and the knife is beheaded, so as not to have too many dreams at night." ”
Lin Fengsheng drank bitterly with Zhong Zixuan until late at night last night, and at this time he had just woken up from his sleep, and his mind was a little chaotic, and he immediately woke up most of the time when he heard the words, and nodded and said: "What the two seniors said is very true, I will go to the mansion to ascend to the hall." ”
After hastily washing up, he took Mei Ruoxue, Duan Zhengyu, and Guo Xian'er to the mansion. Chen Fengyi and Miao Le were injured and stayed in the Zhong family's thatched cottage to rest. In order to be solemn and solemn, he deliberately sent people to the south of the city to transfer a team of pro-soldier soldiers to come, divided into two, forty or fifty people lined up as a guard of honor to guard the gate, and another twenty people listened to the use in the lobby.
Li Baohua is notorious for being a corrupt official, and General Yun Lu's promotion to trial of corrupt officials today can be described as a feat of doing the right thing for heaven and eliminating harm for the people, and the people in the city rushed to watch and hear the trial when they heard the news. Lin Feng's guards at the gate of life could not be stopped, allowing the people to hear the trial outside the hall.
After the public case, two seats were still set up, Lin Fengsheng and Duan Zhengyu sat side by side, and Duan Zhengyu's position was slightly off. There were two Taishi chairs on the left and right sides of the case, Mo Zhen and the head of the Xiting Road sat on the left, and Mei Ruoxue and Guo Xian'er sat on the right. Twenty pro-sergeants in bright armor lined up on both sides, each with their hands on the hilt of their swords, and their expressions were serious.
After everything was arranged, Lin Fengsheng put the Imperial Treasure Fan on the public case, and said loudly: "Ascend to the court, bring people to commit crimes!"
Not long after, Li Baohua, Wang Shijie, Wu Zhong and a group of officials involved in the case were brought into the hall one after another, and due to the large number of people, they lined up under the dripping eaves outside the hall. When everyone saw such a solemn momentum, their hearts were cold and they shuddered. Some timid officials couldn't help but tremble with their hands and feet, and knelt down to beg for mercy, saying that this time they were involved in the case because they were coerced and lured by the people of the mansion, and they were really forced to do so, and they hoped that General Yunlu would be merciful as appropriate.
Seeing this, Li Baohua couldn't help but scold: "You sons of bitches, when did Lao Tzu coerce and lure, in the final analysis, it was not because of greed, but because of the instigation of money." Get all rolled up for me, and don't kneel!" Pointing in excitement, the chains on my hands and feet collided with each other and clanged.
On the left and right, a pro-sergeant came out of the crowd, stretched out his hand to press on Li Baohua's shoulder, and kicked him in the crook of his leg together. Li Baohua fell to the ground involuntarily, struggling to stand up, but was held down by two soldiers and couldn't move. Wang and Wu became lackeys of foreign enemies, and intended to use stolen goods to help the gang abuse, and the crime was as good as Li Baohua's, and two soldiers stepped forward to force him to kneel.
Wang Shijie was bitten by Guo Xian'er's poison and broke a leg, and his spirit was very aggrieved under the serious injury, and he was unable to walk on his own, so he was placed on a door panel and carried into the hall. It's lying down, and there's no need to make it kneel anymore. It was only against Wu Zhong with two soldiers.
Wu Zhong, as the fourth disciple of the Kunlun faction, could not be compared to a corrupt official like Li Baohua who only knew how to take bribes. At the same time, the hands clasped together to form a huge fist, and the punch struck the chest of the soldier on the right, and then the left shoulder slammed into a soldier on the left, and the right side of the middle soldier. The two soldiers fell down on their backs, each spitting out a mouthful of blood, looking pained and unable to get up.
Mei Ruoxue and Guo Xian'er saw that he had become a prisoner, but he was still so fierce, they were furious in their hearts, and they both jumped up and attacked Wu Zhong together. The second daughter's body was very fast, Wu Zhong's hands and feet were handcuffed by chains, and he was unable to move, and he was held down by the second daughter on the shoulder in just one move, and then he was kicked to his knees like Li Baohua. Before he could resist, Mei Ruoxue had already pointed out and closed his acupoint.
Lin Fengsheng was also quite angry in his heart, and said loudly: "This person doesn't respect the number of courtesies, despises the court, listens left and right, and gives me a heavy hit with thirty boards!"
The two soldiers came out in response, took the board, and together reached out and pushed Wu Zhong's back, and Wu Zhong fell forward to the ground. He was in a kneeling position when his acupoint was pointed, and now he still maintains a square position, with his feet above his hips. The two soldiers felt that they were not comfortable, so one of them held his body tightly, and the other grabbed the ankles of his feet with both hands and pulled them back as hard as he could, and forced his legs to straighten.
Wu Zhong screamed in pain and scolded: "The boy surnamed Lin, you have bullied me so much today, I will never give up with you! You wait for Lao Tzu, as long as I still have a breath of air, I will definitely not let you go!"
Lin Fengsheng sneered: "If you can survive today, you should be accompanied by you." He gestured to the two soldiers and said, "Torture!"
The two soldiers replied in unison: "Yes, General!" and then the boards fell on Wu Zhong's ass alternately, and he used as much force as he could. More than ten boards went down, and blood was already splashed.
Li Baohua was still scolding at the beginning, but now when he saw Wu Zhong being beaten by the board, he immediately shut up, not daring to make any more noise.
Wu Zhong couldn't stop cursing at first, but after the thirty boards, his voice became lower and lower, and his forehead was covered with beads of sweat the size of beans. Rao is still unable to keep his mouth shut.
Lin Fengsheng didn't pay attention to him, and said loudly: "The case of the theft of the righteous army's food and salary, now that it has come to light, it is the officials of the Weichu Mansion who are guarding and stealing it, and the mastermind behind it is Lord Li of the Mansion. Food and salary are the foundation of our righteous army's battle to kill thieves, and the stakes are very important, and the criminals can be described as extremely heinous crimes, and their main culprits should be beheaded all over the house, and all the accomplices will be distributed to the army!"
Li Baohua and the government officials couldn't help but exclaim, and then begged for mercy one after another. The people who were hearing the trial outside the hall secretly clapped their hands in applause. Li Futai was corrupt and perverted the law, and the people were punished with capital punishment. The officials under him bully others on weekdays and commit many unrighteous acts, and they cannot be easily forgiven.
Li Baohua shouted: "I don't accept it, I don't accept it, I am an official of the imperial court, a member of the fourth grade, what qualifications do you have to kill me!"
Hearing this, Lin Fengsheng slowly picked up the imperial treasure fan on the public case, opened it with a bang, and said loudly: "Does Lord Li know the origin of this fan?"
When Li Baohua saw the Imperial Treasure Fan, he was stunned, the muscles on his face twitched, and he was extremely frightened in his heart, and a chill came up from his back. Duan Xingzhi gave Lin Fengsheng a folding fan, and the matter of having the power of life and death to corrupt officials and corrupt officials is known to everyone in the central and local officials of Dali State.
