Chapter 210 Do you know that I am waiting for you(1/2)
There is a long pavilion ten miles away from Yongdian County.
The people passing by didn't know what the three people in the simple pavilion were talking about.
They drove by as usual.
Outside the pavilion, the two horses tied up were also walking leisurely.
But in fact, the atmosphere in the pavilion had already entered a white-hot heat at this time.
The follower next to Xin County Magistrate, from the beginning, heard Zhu Xingde explaining how much money he had stolen at home by thieves, without blinking his eyelids.
It was not until Zhu Xingde confessed that he had tied up more than a dozen people and had to tie them up, and he could not help but look up at Zhu Xingde.
I thought to myself: This guy is open and honest.
He actually dared to reveal his own secrets in front of their young master and would just take action without having to investigate.
I clearly told you that if you do something that will be locked up in prison, it will be tied up. How do you tie up and how do you take the confessions of those thieves?
This look like he had eaten the courage of the bear heart or the leopard, or he was caught without any regrets. He did not regret this revenge.
Either you are confident, and the final result will be more important than punishment. It is better to explain the truth first, and get the minimum trust of their young master, and emphasize that what he said is not aimless. You would rather fall into trouble than hope that the magistrate will make the decision and make it clear.
Sure enough, when Zhu Xingde talked about the reason for the stolen disaster, the followers around Xin County Magistrate were shocked and could no longer close their mouths.
Master Liang is crazy?
What a great official he is, how dare he be so brave?
When mining and making iron, what do you need to do? Do you need to rebel when creating weapons?
Assuming that what Zhu Xingde said was true, this would become a shocking case, especially with some connection with the outside of the border. In the end, no matter whether it was really sold to foreign weapons or not, as long as there was a connection, it would be a serious crime to kill the nine clans.
If such a shocking case occurred in the small Yongdian County, it would even be stolen from the heavenly court. The entire county government, no, the capital city under its jurisdiction, was destined to undergo a major purge.
The remote small county town made him feel incredible just after he arrived. Is it really a little demon in the temple?
The new magistrate even showed a stern expression on his face: "Zhu Xingde, do you know what you are talking about? Lift your head!"
Zhu Xingde looked up, and while he looked up, he reached into his clothes and found the account book he accidentally obtained from Wang Laizi's family, as well as the confession written by his father-in-law, the thief who had pressed his handprints.
When the wind blows the paper, it can be seen that the thieves have been tortured and the handprints on those papers are stained with blood.
In addition, the booklet is placed together, it is as thick as two palms.
Zhu Xingde's eyes were neither avoided nor avoided:
"Sir, every sentence that Caoren said is true.
If those innocent corvee labor can be brought back.
Let those country boys who shouldn't have died meet their relatives again.
Let those corvee relatives who have been persecuted and died clearly know the cause of death, rather than because they are just ordinary people, and they don’t even know how their sons and grandchildren die, so the common people will not regret what they do.
Please make the decision.
Please check it out.”
The entourage of the new magistrate looked at Zhu Xingde, took the evidence from Zhu Xingde with both hands, and then bent down to hand it to their young master.
The new magistrate took the lead in opening the book.
He turned his eyes and his brows immediately frowned.
Thanks to the family of half of the military generals, he had roughly guessed where the picture was drawn in this book.
You can tell at a glance.
"Zhu Xingde."
"The grass people are here."
"Follow me to go to the county government office."
"Yes, sir."
Two horses, thanks to Zhu Xingde, who learned how to ride horses.
A horse was ridden by the new magistrate, and the follower sometimes pulled the reins and sometimes ran a few steps beside him.
One horse was ridden by Zhu Xingde.
There are only ten miles left in total, which is fast.
Unlike Zhu Xingde's dream, the new magistrate did not hide his identity when he entered the city this time.
The follower arrived early and ran to the city gate to show his cards.
The gates of Yongdian County are open.
The new magistrate arrived at the county government at an extremely fast speed.
What the new magistrate did not expect was that at this time, many people had already gathered on the county yamen street.
When the left-handed saw the eldest son-in-law following him, he confirmed that this was the new Master Qingtian.
Behind him was a long white banner with blood books and white cloth, and there were a group of men kneeling beside him.
The left-handed man took the lead and knelt on his knees and shouted:
"Please ask Master Qingtian to make decisions for our people.
In order to make the decision, the Zuo family in Han Village, the Luo family in Qingliu Village, and the Zhu family in Xinglin Village, were stolen by these thieves.
Second, although the incident of the wild boar in Qingcheng Mountain was an accident, some evidence can confirm that the seventeen people went to Qingcheng Mountain for a purpose of illegitimate intentions and wanted to hijack Luo Junxi, the top student of the imperial examination. And if the hijacking was not successful, he would be killed.
The third thing is that Luo Junxi's mother was seriously injured during the thief's theft. She has been lying in the clinic for almost a month. She was notified by the doctor several times to prepare for her funeral. Sir, this is a murderer, please make the decision."
Liuzi and the others then shouted: "I'll make the decision by the magistrate."
The banners in the blood-written letter are widened, unlike Zhu Xingde's embroidered cloth, this time the words on the banner are written in blood.
Immediately, the audience was in an uproar.
What surprised the people even more was that the drums in front of the county government rang out at this moment.
One dull sound after another.
Boss Ma has been cleaned up long ago. It doesn't look like he was tortured and tortured for a night the day before.
Zhu Xingde said that this may be the last time you appeared in front of someone.
So before you die, let you take a look at your twin sons, tell your wives and concubines how to live, and then keep your last dignity, and put on a clean dress, so go with confidence.
Boss Ma beat the drum and shouted calmly: "I was instructed by the instructor of the Liang chief clerk of Yongdian County, the Liang family manager Guo Ding and Xu San to steal the Zuo family, Luo family, and Zhu family in Hancun. During the stealing process, I had a murderous intention... I also killed twenty-three lives in three years..."
The discussion around was already loud, and I could hardly hear what Boss Ma was saying.
"I testify that the 17 people who were killed by wild boars at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain were also instructed by Liang's chief clerks, Guo Ding and Xu San to ambush Luo Junxi on the way to the examination and all the relatives accompanying him who followed Luo Junxi to the city."
It can be seen that this confession has completely fallen into Zhu Xingde.
Regardless of whether Liang Zhubu asked the Qingchengshan group to kill Luo Junxi, Boss Ma said so.
Boss Ma finished playing the drum.
Tian Qi quickly picked up the drumstick and continued to beat it: "I stole the Zuo family in Youhancun..." How did he steal it again, and shouted in tears.
That unswerving look gave the onlookers an illusion.
It didn't seem like he was suing himself, but beating the drum to ask the county government: "Let him in, staying outside is too painful."
Then there is the thin monkey.
The thin monkey also helped the thief who was chopped up his hands beat the drum again: "Please arrest us and go to the prison by the magistrate. We are wrong and will never dare to do so again."
The entourage of the new magistrate secretly glanced at Zhu Xingde several times during this process.
He was surprised how this was done.
Not long after arriving in Yongdian County, I was shocked by the small county temple.
Then he was surprised that Zhu Xingde was just a country boy, but this person was obviously not a person in the pool.
If he had a special favor on the previous righteousness, he would have a special impression of it.
It also concerns the current situation.
This is simply out of the way.
At this time, the county government had already been in chaos.
Why are there so many drumbeats coming? The county magistrate is sick. The chief clerk Liang heard that he is even more ill and cannot get up. The two leaders are not here, and there is a big mess.
Immediately afterwards, the people outside began to shout loudly to Master Qingtian, and the officials in the yamen were stunned.
Is the new magistrate here today? Already here?
When all the officials were driven out, they saw a new magistrate dressed in a rich young master.
"Where is the head of the captain? The criminals who were beating the drum immediately arrested the Yongdian County chief clerk Liang Huaisheng, Guo Ding, and Xu Sanqing. The three families were surrounded."
What awesome thing.
