Chapter 245 Beat the madmen!
In the Luoyang County Government, a plaque was solemnly hanging above the main hall, with four words "Hanging high in the mirror" written on it. Yue Feng sat under the plaque, one left and one right, and the left and right county magistrates sat next to him.
The yamen runners held the killing sticks in their hands and were arranged on both sides. The atmosphere in the hall was solemn and solemn. Outside the hall, almost all the people in Yongxingfang gathered together. It was really three layers inside and three layers outside!
There were chattering in the crowd and talking, and someone said, "Is that the county magistrate? Why do you look so young? This person is not good-looking. Is he really a clean official who can make the decision for Liulang!"
"Tsk, you haven't seen the prestige of the County Master in Wu Niangji that day. The County Master in Wu Niangji fought against the King of Hell of Wei and beat the King of Overlords. Tsk, Tsk, that's really satisfying and amazing!"
"Yes, I was also on the scene at that time. After listening to Master County Zun's words, I was so excited. What is a good official? Only a good official is a good official. If our officials in Dazhou can be the same as Master Yue, what else can we worry about in the people of Dazhou?"
"..." The people were talking about it. It was obvious that the reason why so many people gathered today was because the county Zun Yuefeng was in charge of the case.
A few days ago, there were many people beating drums at the county government office, but the two county magistrates who tried the case were just talking about the left and right. When they encountered the case, they would shy away. Or they would ask the plaintiff to provide this and that. The people who were watching at the beginning were still looking forward to it, but everyone was soon disappointed.
The county government office is still the same as the previous county government office, but it is impossible to seek justice in the county government office!
"Hmph, what county lord? This person surnamed Yue is said to be unable to even reach the power and is completely undermined by others! What can he do? Even if he sits in the hall, he is just a puppet!"
"Yes, the last time I was in Wu Niang's memory, the man named Yue was very tough and said something very exciting. He said that everyone was wronged and went to the county government to beat the drum and complain, and he made the decision for everyone. Now everyone is beat the drum and complain, but what have he done these days? He didn't dare to show his face. Today he finally came to the hall. Is he here to make up the numbers, right?"
Some people expect it, but naturally some don’t believe it. The two sides even quarreled for a while, which made the outside even more noisy.
At this moment, I suddenly heard someone shouting: "Here, come, Liulang is here!"
Everyone came over to the point of view and saw a man in a short jacket and a short figure of about thirty years old, who was ashen in a short jacket, the man looked ashen and very serious. He pursed his lips and went straight to the drumbeat at the county government gate. He picked up the drum hammer and beat the drum.
Beating the drums and making excuses, the yamen runners shouted: "Go to the hall!"
"Why don't the drum beater come into the hall and present your grievance?" The doorman at the door shouted loudly. The man who called Liulang then threw down the drum hammer and walked to the door of the county government hall. He took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and plunged in.
When he arrived at the county yamen hall, he knelt down and bowed in a regular manner, and then said, "Huang Liulang, a Caomin, has reported his grievance!" As he said that, he raised a piece of white silk cloth from his hand over his head, and Wei Yuanzhong was responsible for the trial of the case, saying, "Come on!"
The white silk is made of paper, and it says injustice. It turns out that Huang Liulang used to be a peddler, so he carried a load and sold goods on the street. He had a wife named Guo Xiu and lived with him.
Unexpectedly, Wang Yifa took a fancy to Guo Xiu's beauty and pretended to be able to help Guo Xiu find an errand in Wang Qingzhi's mansion. When the couple heard that the Wang family was famous, it was a famous family! Isn't that a great thing for Guo Xiu to work there? So the couple thanked them for their gratitude.
Unexpectedly, Wang Yifa did not ask Guo Xiu to work at all, but directly occupied Guo Xiu. Huang Liulang lost his wife and was dissatisfied with him and went to Wang Yifa to argue, but was beaten. He couldn't do the work of a peddler because Wang Yifa saw that he wanted to beat him once, and his cargo burden could not be made in the dozens of shops around him. Huang Liulang was forced to go to the fore and threw himself into the river twice. If it weren't for the villagers' rescue, he would have died long ago.
He jumped into the river and did not die. He heard that the new Luoyang Ling Yuefeng was a Qing official. The neighbors all encouraged him to come and make trouble. In addition, the literate scholar wrote a lawsuit for him for free, so he came to file a complaint.
Today he is here on the third day, and he has not succeeded two days ago. Wei Yuanzhong always used various reasons to swear at him. If he fails today, he will be determined not to complain. He made up his mind that if this time fails, he will find an opportunity to sneak into the palace and take advantage of Wang Yifa's recovery and he will try his best to make up with him.
After reading the paper, Wei Yuanzhong said, "Huang Liulang, can the things recorded on your paper be true?"
Huang Liulang said: "Report to Shangguan, every matter above is true and conclusive. There are many neighbors outside the hall, and they can testify to me. Wang Yifa took my wife, making me desperate, and even wanted to get rid of me quickly. Everyone knows this. Today, Huang Liulang asked Lord Qingtian to make the decision for me and seek justice for me!"
Wei Yuanzhong nodded, looked at Yue Feng on the side, and then spared Yue Feng and looked at Zhang Heng on the other side. Zhang Heng sneered, and Wei Yuanzhong said, "Why is Lord Zhang laughing?"
Zhang Heng said: "I laugh at myself for being ridiculous, of course I laugh at the ridiculous people in the world!"
Wei Yuanzhong's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he said with a smile: "Mr. Zhang, what do you think of this case?"
Zhang Heng said: "Mr. Wei isn't he smart? I'm here to come to see Lord Wei handle the case today! Lord. Wei, please!"
Wei Yuanzhong laughed and said, "Since this is the case, I will be disrespectful!" After Wei Yuanzhong finished speaking, his smile instantly retracted, and he grabbed a command arrow from his face, took it in his hand and threw it into the ground, saying:
"Come on, go and arrest Wang Yifa immediately!"
"Here!" The yamen runners immediately stepped forward to receive the order. These yamen runners were all Wei Yuanzhong's confidants, and they were not the same as those under Wei Shengming's command. They only followed Wei Yuanzhong's orders.
Wei Yuanzhong wanted to get someone, and the scene was exciting. Today's opening was really unexpected. The yamen runners went out at lightning and came back in a short while, but did not bring Wang Yifa.
The one who followed the yamen runners was an old man over 50 years old. Looking at the old man, he looked pretty, dressed in a delicate manner, and was full of momentum in every move. Although he was following the yamen runners, he carried his hands on his back, looked arrogant, looked down on all directions, and was extremely proud.
Someone in the crowd said: "This... this is not Wang Yifa, this is..."
"This person is Wang Qingyuan Wang, this is the number one person in our Yongxing Fangtou!"
Most people in Yongxingfang know this person, who is the elder brother of Wang Qingzhi of the Wang family and Wang Yifa's eldest uncle. He used to be an official in the court and served as a governor. He was an amazing person.
He has just returned to his hometown recently. He is currently the head of the Wang family. He is known as Wang Yuanwai, but he is said to be one of the most respectful people in Yongxingfang.
Wang Qingyuan has been a fourth-rank governor, and his demeanor is certainly not comparable to ordinary people. He stepped into the hall without worshipping him, but just said coldly:
"Who is here to try the case? How many days has my nephew Wang Fei been beaten? The man was beaten to death and his life was about to be lost. You still want to let him come to court. Hehe, I want to ask, how do you be an official? My Wang family did not come to you to come to you. Do you really think our Wang family is easy to bully?"
Wang Qingyuan spoke loudly in the court, with awesome momentum, and the hall was noisy. The county magistrate Zhang Heng looked very embarrassed and hurriedly stood up and said, "Mr. Wang, this is a misunderstanding, today's matter..."
"Bang!" Wei Yuanzhong suddenly slapped the agglomeration and roared angrily: "Sujing, how can you roar in the court?"
Wei Yuanzhong's roar was like a lion's roar. It was so full of energy that it shocked the whole world. Even Zhang Heng was shocked by him.
Wei Yuanzhong pointed at Wang Qingyuan and said coldly: "Who is in the hall? What is the relationship between him and the defendant? Report it quickly?"
Wang Qingyuan was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't help but smile and said with a grim smile: "I will not change my name when I am doing it, but I will not change my surname. My surname is Wang Qingyuan. Wang Yifa is my nephew. What's wrong? What should you do?"
Wei Yuanzhong said coldly: "Wang Yifa forced the robbers and bullied the peddler. Now the plaintiff sued the yamen. Based on the multiple evidence collected by the official, the matter was verified that the physical evidence was there. Can you plead guilty for him?"
Wang Qingyuan laughed loudly, unable to help but feel angry anymore. He pointed at Wei Yuanzhong and said, "A few eighth-rank officials dare to interrogate me? I am really a monkey, I don't know how to be tall and strong! When I, Wang Qingyuan, was in the case of trial, you were still a fucking slave!"
When Wang Qingyuan roared, some of the officials laughed, but there were also children of the Wang family watching here. When they saw Wang Qingyuan so domineering, they all looked at him with pride and were very tolerant.
Zhang Heng stood up again and said, "Governor Wang, Lord Wang, what's wrong today is really a misunderstanding. Where can I wait..."
Wei Yuanzhong slapped the aggro and waited for Zhang Heng with anger, saying, "Zhang Heng, how can you let your friendship be randomly in the court?"
Wei Yuanzhong pointed at Wang Qingyuan and said, "I am enforcing the law impartially. No matter what your origin is or how old you are, since you are on behalf of others today, you have to listen to me! If I ask you to confess, you have to admit your guilt, otherwise, hum!"
Wang Qingyuan stomped his feet and said, "What else? What else can you do? My fucking little county government office, my Wang family, can clean it up for you by sneezing. What else do you dare?"
Wang Qingyuan stepped forward and waited for Wei Yuanzhong, but he actually wanted to start a fight! Wei Yuanzhong sneered, grabbed the arrow in front of him, threw it out and shouted:
"Come on, catch this beast and beat this crazy man in Roaring Court first twenty boards!"
