Chapter 0025 Accidental Attribution

Outside the lobby, Shazhou Governor Li Wuqing hurried over, following Li Zhen's eldest sister Li Quan from afar. Yang Yun really didn't understand why the Governor came here. He hurriedly bowed and bowed, "Sir, please see the envoy!"

Li Wuqing smiled slightly, "I heard that County Magistrate Yang is trying the case. I happened to be idle, so I came over and check it out. I won't disturb County Magistrate Yang's trial!"

"Where! Where! The envoy comes to guide him, but the officials are not allowed to ask for it!"

Yang Yun was secretly surprised that the powers of the prefecture and county levels were clear, and Li Wukui never asked about his case trial. Why did he come today?

Could it be that the Li family or the Suo family had gone Li Wuqiu's way? He quickly glanced at Suo Mao and found that Suo Mao was also surprised. It seemed that it was not the Suo family.

If it weren't for the Suo family or the Li family, he vaguely guessed that it must be Li Ze who found Li Wukui last night.

The Li family had insufficient reasons. In order to get the stone wall, they even told the governor to come. They obviously wanted to put pressure on themselves. Thinking of this, Yang Yun was also secretly dissatisfied with Li Ze.

Everyone walked back to the lobby. Li Wuqing glanced at Li Zhen indifferently, then smiled at Li Ze and said, "It's actually Dalang who came to file a lawsuit in person. It's rare! Is the head of the family back?"

Li Ze was also confused in his heart. Why did Li Wukui come? And when he met, he asked about the situation of the head of the family, which made him a little embarrassed. You know, he asked Yang Yun for help last night, in the name of the head of the family. Isn’t this exposing himself in person?

Li Ze had to answer again, so he had to laugh dryly and said, "The head of the family will be back in the past two days."

"That's good. I have some private matters to ask him!"

Yang Yun next to him was also a little stunned. When the two of them talked, the Li family seemed to have not looked for Li Wukui. Li Wukui was really just here to take a look?

Yang Yun would never associate Li Wukui with Li Zhen.

He quickly bowed and gave in and said, "I'm going to ask for a seat!"

Li Wukui waved his hand and laughed: "How can I sit in the seat of Yang County Magistrate? Isn't this a mess? I just listened and just sat aside."

Yang Yun quickly ordered someone to carry a couch and place it behind his right side to show respect. This is usually the seat that the inspector of the censor was sitting on when he arrived.

Li Wuqing sat down, smiled, and listened quietly to Yang Yun’s trial of the case. Yang Yun cheered up and said to Li Ze: “Please report the complaint again!”

Li Zeshi gave a gift and cleared his throat and said, "About twenty years ago, the Li family in Dunhuang distributed property to their clan members. It was clear at that time that property was distributed free of charge and only the Li family members could own it.

But in the past few days, we have cleaned up the family property and found that there was a stone wall in Mogao Grottoes that year and distributed it to Li Danping, the clan member, but now we have conclusive evidence to prove that Li Danping is not a member of the Li clan of Dunhuang and cannot enjoy the distribution of Li's property. We ask that this stone wall be taken back..."

Before Li Ze finished speaking, Li Wuqing's face changed slightly, and he immediately coughed and interrupted Li Ze's words, "Has Li Dalang made a mistake? How could Li Danping not be a member of the Li clan of Dunhuang?

I remember this very clearly. I once confirmed with my family Li Jin. Li Jin also had conclusive evidence to prove that Li Danping was the Li family of Dunhuang. Why is it not now? Did Li Dalang confirm this with the head of the family?"

Li Ze was stunned. He only discovered this last night. Li Danping was only a clan member of the Li family in Dunhuang, so he thought it was the killer move against Li Zhen. Unexpectedly, Li Wukui appeared halfway and publicly denied the matter, which made him confused.

"This... the head of the family has not been here these days and has not been confirmed yet."

Li Wuxiao nodded and said, "Not whether Li Danping is the Li family of Dunhuang, but I tell you one thing, the Tang Dynasty law is written very clearly, and the Tang law is greater than the clan rules.

I don’t care what your clan rules stipulate, but since the Shibi’s deed is written with Li Zhen’s name and there is a seal of the government, that means that the stone wall belongs to Li Zhen, not to the Li family. This must be clear. As for your family to buy it back, it should be negotiated by both parties and has nothing to do with the government.”

When Li Wuqing said this, not only Li Ze was stunned, but even County Magistrate Yang Yun and Suo Mao who heard the case outside were stunned. This case actually had no point of appeal. Li Wuqing had already made it clear that this stone wall belonged to Li Zhen.

They were all confused. Why did Li Wuqing favor Li Zhen? Even if he is upright, this involves the interests of the two major families in Shazhou. Li Wuqing should at least remain silent.

Yang Yun was frightened and sweated in a cold sweat on his back. He suddenly realized that this case must not be tried by himself and must be handed over to Li Wuhui.

At this time, he didn't care about face and quickly smiled and said, "The officials are not experienced in such cases. Please ask the officials to guide the officials."

Li Wuqing smiled slightly, not caring whether it was a distraction. He asked Li Zhen, "I wonder what Li Shaolang has to think?"

The idle people outside were in an uproar. It was already strange that the governor tried the case for the county magistrate. He even asked the defendant what he thought, which was unheard of.

At this time, Suo Mao understood that Li Wukui was actually helping Li Zhen. Could it be because of Wang Xiaojie?

However, Suo Mao was not as silly as Li Ze. He paid for Li Zhen to buy it. As long as the right is in Li Zhen's hands, the Suo family will have a chance.

Li Zhen knew that his notes had worked when he saw his eldest sister appear. Unexpectedly, Gao Yanfu was so proud that he still attracted Li Wuqing.

He did not take his credit and went forward to salute and said, "The student was grateful to the envoy Li for his justice. As the envoy said, the national law is greater than the clan rules. I don't know how my grandfather got this right then.

But now the government's seal admits that the right and deed belongs to me. I don't think there is any need to be retried in this case. Just like someone likes a horse on the street, he insists that the horse belongs to his family. Isn't this just a robbery?"

Li Ze realized that he was going to lose the case. He was immediately angry and embarrassed. His dead face suddenly turned red. He pointed at Li Zhen and shouted: "You forced to break into the Li family temple and hurt my servants. You must plead guilty!"

Even the county magistrate Yang Yun couldn't stand Li Ze's rudeness. When he thought that he was almost misled by Li Ze, he felt annoyed in his heart, 'Bang!' slapped the gavel, "Don't roar in the court, otherwise he would be driven out!"

Li Ze glared at Li Zhen with anger and felt angry. At this time, Li Wuqing said calmly: "But the stone wall in your hand is indeed very important. It is related to the statue of Maitreya that His Majesty the Holy Emperor is concerned about. This is not only your own business, but also to the people of Shazhou Prefecture and Shazhou.

I will ask you, what are you going to deal with that stone wall? If you are willing to build a large statue, the state government will support you with two thousand guan. What do you think?"

Li Zhen had long been confident. He smiled and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but the student's grandfather was a lay Buddhist in Dayun Temple when he was alive. The student himself had a deep connection with Dayun Temple, so the student was willing to donate this stone wall to Dayun Temple for free and ask Dayun Temple to build this statue of Maitreya."

Li Zhen's surprise caused a lot of exclamation. He actually gave it to Dayun Temple for free. Suo Mao's face turned pale. He stomped his feet hard and turned away.

Li Ze was also completely desperate. The wealth he had just discovered was cut off. He was anxious and ashamed, and he wanted to leave immediately.

Li Wuqing laughed. The boy did not disappoint him. He was so sensible that he solved the matter so beautifully.

He immediately praised: "Li Shaolang's righteous deeds are admirable. It is very good. The prefecture will also pay 2,000 guan to Dayun Temple to assist Dayun Temple in building this Maitreya statue."

Li Wuqing said to the county magistrate Yang Yun again: "This matter will be left to Dunhuang County. County magistrate Yang should contact Lingyin as soon as possible."

"The officials will do their best to do this. Thank you for your teaching today."

Li Wuqing nodded and smiled meaningfully at Li Zhen.

...........

After leaving the county government office, Li Zhen and his eldest sister Li Quan walked home together. Li Zhen smiled and said, "I have lost a chance to make money. Sister will not blame me, right!"

"I won't blame you for this. You did a good job. I'm very satisfied with my sister. But when I think of another thing, I have to ask you carefully."

"What are you going to ask me about?"

Li Quan grabbed Li Zhen's ear and asked angrily: "I heard from Xiaopang that each of you has earned twenty coins in Liuyuan Town. Where is the money? You dare to hide it from me!"
