Standing together through thick and thin

Chapter 114

"The women are wronged, I implore the adults to make decisions for the women!" Seeing Lin Sihan's simple way of shocking the people around him, Mrs. Lu was surprised at first, and then recovered from the fear. Seeing that her son no longer had to kneel, she didn't want the magistrate Remembering his son, he spoke first.

Her voice was as soft as ever, as if it had softened into a ball of water. Even if there was no evidence, it still made people believe it.

"Minister Lu, who lives in Baili Village. A few days ago, the son of the Minnv, Shaoqiu, was arrested by the defendant, saying that she stole the prescription from the Shao family's ancestors, and it has not been released for seven days. Brother Qiu is a good woman. I always knew that he didn't steal any prescriptions, and asked the adults to make decisions for the women! Brother Qiu, you are wronged!" As he said, Lu Shi bowed again.

Prescription?Shaoqiu?

These words flashed by, and the magistrate only felt familiar.

The master whispered a few words in his ear, and he quickly realized that his expression turned ugly.

That was the person the Qin family in the capital had to deal with. How could they compromise just because of a few little women?Regardless of the truth, the magistrate of the county immediately took a picture of Jingmutang and shouted, "Presumptuous! Shaoqiu stole the Shangzi of the Shao family ancestor. There are all witnesses and material evidences. The evidence is solid. How can there be grievances? Let's talk nonsense and disturb the court. First Zhier waits for a big crime of disrespect, here comes someone, pull them down, and give each of them fifty slaps!"

At the order of the magistrate of the county, five red-headed lotteries were grabbed from the "strict" lottery holder.

When Lin Sihan saw it, his eyes turned cold.

Ordinary people don't understand the white-headed lottery, black-headed lottery and red-headed lottery. He was released as a county magistrate for several years in his previous life, how could he not understand?

The white-headed signboard is light, and you can walk away after hitting someone, leaving red marks at most.

Black-headed picks, skin torn and flesh bruised.

Red-headed lottery, half-life if you don't die!

The county magistrate threw red-headed lottery, they were a weak woman with two children, he also threw red-headed lottery!He was indiscriminate, and he wanted to beat them half to death, and he didn't even care if they were beaten to death.

The sound of the bamboo stick falling to the ground made Lu's body tremble with fright, and her mind went blank. She didn't understand why the county magistrate suddenly didn't ask any questions, and just hit the board without finding out the truth. She didn't know what to do. The belly draft has long been forgotten.

Lin Sihan no longer kneels, he doesn't believe it, he still can't beat a county magistrate!

Lu Shi must not be beaten!Otherwise Shaoqiu will go crazy!

For some reason, Lin Sihan felt a little worried when he thought of Shao Qiu's madness.

Even if the county magistrate is standing behind the Qin family, he will fight him to the end.

The officials began to detain Lu Shi and Shao Duo, but Shao Duo didn't move, and the others couldn't pull him away. Seeing that Lu Shi was about to be dragged away, Shao Duo was in a hurry, he didn't know what was wronged, and said He came here to save his brother from life and death.

It's okay for these people to bully him, but he can't forgive them for bullying his mother!

Shao Duo walked over, took a yamen servant who wanted to catch Lu and threw it away, "Why do you bully my mother? Why do you bully my mother, you bad guys, bad guys, I want to beat you bad guys! How dare you bully my mother , I will kill you, kill you!"

Shao Duo easily picked up a burly man, threw it aside, and punched him twice as if he didn't understand his hatred.

The man was dazzled by the beating, tears came out, and there was a circle of stars on his head.

Seeing the ferocious Shao Duo, he couldn't react for a while, and his body began to tremble.

Fangfang county magistrate stared wide-eyed, stood up abruptly, wanted to say something but suddenly couldn’t speak, turned left and right anxiously, the magistrate was accidentally pushed to lie on the ground by the county magistrate, groping and struggling to get up When I got up, my mind was in a mess, and I shouted anxiously, trembling, and pointed my fingers randomly, "It's unreasonable, it's unreasonable, it's too presumptuous, it's so presumptuous! You, what are you all doing standing up, give it to me, Give it all to me, be sure to catch him, catch him quickly! Give him fifty boards, no, one hundred boards!"

The officials who were at a loss by the side suddenly reacted, and swarmed towards Shao Duo's direction.

When Shao Duo saw the people rushing over, he snorted coldly, hitting one was hitting, two was hitting, and a group was still hitting, then all of them should be beaten to the ground.

Shouts, howls, and exclamations echoed one after another in the courtroom, which was very lively.

The people watching the excitement outside were even more dumbfounded.

The courtroom was suddenly in chaos, no matter how much the yamen servants rushed towards Shao Duo, they were either beaten by Shao Duo one by one, looking for teeth all over the floor, or thrown here and there.

The master and the magistrate looking at each other looked at each other, almost unable to recover.

An official bumped into the desk, slid along the desk to the chair of the county magistrate, slipped and fell to the ground, and fainted with a lottery on his body. The magistrate hurried away, jumping up in a panic.

If this hits him, ouch, his old waist can be lost.

What's wrong?Are you not afraid of officials because you are stupid?

Which one of the ordinary people is not scrambling to stay away from the government, how did this kid hit the government?

Several burly officials flew in one after another.

The magistrate was so frightened that he didn't know how to escape.

Looking at the yamen servants who were lifted up and thrown on the ground screaming, the bodies of the county magistrate and master trembled in fright, as if they were afraid of being hit by the yamen servants who were thrown out, and carefully looked for a place to hide. place.

The county magistrate had never seen such a mess before, seeing the fierce Shao Duo hiding under the table in a panic, the master also stuffed himself in when he saw this, and the two squeezed together and stared.

The common people outside all burst into laughter seeing the appearance of the county grandpa and master.

This is much more interesting than the so-called trial.

"Hahaha, you deserve it! I know how to hit the board without distinguishing between indiscriminate and indiscriminate. How can you hit the board without hearing it? You deserve it!"

A smell of urine spread over the courtroom, and everyone around looked towards the magistrate, only to see a puddle of unknown liquid flowing on the ground.

The people outside the courtroom shouted "The county magistrate peed his pants!" "The county magistrate peed his pants hahaha!", and burst into laughter. The county magistrate was ashamed and angry, covering his face and wanting to dig a hole Drill in!

Lin Sihan blinked his eyes a few times, his mind was in a daze for a while, he usually looked at the well-behaved, obedient, silly and innocent Shao Duo, never knew that Shao Duo could be so fierce.

So fierce that it scared the magistrate to pee his pants!

He helped Lu Shi stand aside so as not to be hurt, his mind turned into a mess, he lost his thoughts, his plan was disrupted, and he didn't know how to proceed.

At this moment, there was a shout outside.

"The prefect is here!"

The magistrate was taken aback, and looked up from under the case with a look of astonishment, why did the magistrate come here?Still when he was so ashamed.

Lin Sihan was also puzzled, why did the magistrate come here?

However, he didn't have more time to think about these.

A few corners flashed in his mind, thinking about who is this magistrate?

For a while, he couldn't remember who was the prefect of Ji County in his last life at this time?I saw that he had come in.

When he saw the person coming, Lin Sihan was overjoyed.

It's Master Xu!Another fierce general under his grandfather's name, he knew his identity only after working with him in the capital before.

Mr. Xu's name is Xu Jinqu, and he is upright and selfless.

In the last life, he worked with him, and he severely punished him for a few small mistakes. Once, he saw him secretly slandering the enemy, so he might as well have Xu Jinqu give a memorial and be sent home to contemplate his mistakes behind closed doors. Everyone in the civil and military courts saw him making jokes. Lin Sihan was grateful and entangled with Xu Jinqu. Although there was no feud between them, this guy was really difficult to deal with and messed up, but there was nothing he could do. He was favored by the emperor in his previous life. However, staying in the court can make the Manchu civil and military quieter.

And he also played his role!

When the county magistrate heard that Mr. Xu was coming, he was taken aback for a moment, and then hurriedly crawled out from under the case. The surrounding officials also stopped attacking, and their bodies were painted. Shao Duo grinned at them and howled like a wild beast.

The yamen servants who had always been domineering in front of the common people were trembling with fright at this time, as obedient as quails.

However, the surrounding officials did not dare to approach again, and Shao Duo did not continue to beat people. Xu Jinqu is a tall man who has just passed his forties. He has a straight face, a straight figure, a dark complexion, and sharp eyes. With a thick black beard, the whole person looks serious and tough.

"What's going on here?" As soon as he came in, seeing everything in front of him, his face turned black.

He glanced at the magistrate who was hiding under the case, and the magistrate slowly crawled out to salute Xu Jinqu, "What's wrong with Mr. Xu?" The foul smell became more intense. Xu Jinqu wrinkled his nose, "Dignified parents, sir, How decent...you insulted the official uniform! Do you want this official to accuse you of a crime of disrespect?"

As he spoke, he slapped the table hard, which made the magistrate's body tremble again in fright.

"Don't dare, beat someone, I don't dare, dare not!"

Xu Jinqu stared straight at him, "Say, what's going on?"

Xu Jinqu sat on the chair next to him and signaled the magistrate to continue the trial.

The county magistrate wanted to go back and change his clothes, but since the magistrate was here, he had to continue the trial in the government office that smelled of urine and had a puddle of obvious water stains on it, and he didn't dare to take pictures of the gavel tree!Feeling ashamed.

The turmoil just now frightened him so much that he couldn't recover. Looking at the three members of Lu's family below, it was like looking at a monster.

He must be incompatible with their family!

Lin Sihan didn't wait for them to recover and cover up the truth, and took the lead in telling what happened just now without any embellishments.

After listening to Xu Jinqu, he glanced at the master, who nodded helplessly, and Xu Jinqu's face became even more gloomy.

"Magistrate Liang, as the official of the people's parents, is this how you decide the case?"

Liang Zhixian trembled his fingers, "No, I'm an official, I'm just... I'm just confused by anger, yes, yes, just confused by anger."

"Really? Let's continue the trial!" Xu Jinqu didn't seem to want to pursue this matter. He sat on the sidelines and listened openly. He was just serious, as if he really just came to listen.

The magistrate of Liang was in a dilemma, one was the pressure from the Qin family, the other was the magistrate, neither could afford to provoke him, he shook his head and sighed, he could only take one step at a time.

With Xu Jinqu watching from the sidelines, Mrs. Lu was finally able to redress her grievance smoothly.

The county magistrate didn't dare to make things difficult, "Mr. Lu, tell me, what grievances do you have?"

Lu Shi bowed profusely, and the finished manuscript finally came back to his mind.

"Shaoqiu, the son of the peasant woman, was wronged for not stealing the prescription from the ancestors. The prescription was figured out by the son of the peasant woman himself. I watched him ponder every day, watching him polish the tableware and toys at home, Watching him find ways to hunt and earn money, and then go to the town to buy messy porcelain and come back to study, I didn’t even say a word, and I never saw what recipe he came up with, I just made a note of it, wrong I started again, and slowly found a suitable method. Only then did I have such a good cleaning agent, and finally it became looser. But I still have to go up the mountain to collect herbs every day, and I take piles of herbs to my home, and piles of them Pile the land and send it away to be used as fertilizer for the next year."

"The folk woman can read a few characters, but can't write. My son had just learned from Chen Qiaofu in his hometown at that time, and he didn't know a few characters. He thought of some codes and wrote down the formula. Fang Zi is now sold to the big shopkeeper of Yunxiang Restaurant, only the big shopkeeper knows the meaning of the code, and the woman does not know what the code means. Fang Zi, my lord can go to the shopkeeper of Yunxiang Restaurant to read the prescription, and then confront Mr. Shao’s family to find out whether what the woman said is true or not!"

"My lord, the woman has been wronged. The woman wants to avenge her son. My son Shaoqiu was wronged. Please be the master for the woman! Return my son's innocence!"

It was rare for Lu Shi to finish so many words at once.

But for the sake of her son, she beat the drums to express her grievances. If she is still timid, what will her son do?

"My lord, what Auntie said is correct, that prescription was indeed figured out by Brother Shao himself, I can testify!"

Xu Jinqu glanced at Lin Sihan and frowned.

Liang Zhixian didn't know what Xu Jinqu meant, so he asked, "Who are you? What kind of witness can a child be?"

"My lord's words are wrong. No matter they are old or young, they can be witnesses. Caomin is a prodigal adopted by the Lu family. His name is not worth mentioning!"
