Dress to be a celebrity

The hall is not the place to meet the ceremony, Huang Xun just smiled at him, then put away his amiable look, and said solemnly: "Huantong's judgment came at the right time. You are in charge of the money, grain, river transportation, and capital arrest of Tingzhou Prefecture. This case The involvement is very serious, and we need your government to help Wuping County arrest the criminals and deal with the money and food matters of the local farmland!"

Huan Ling was covered in dust, and the corners of his clothes were still wet with dew, but his expression and demeanor did not show signs of fatigue. He bowed forward, responded neatly, "Your official obeys your order", and then went to the corridor to find the county magistrate Song. Discuss which prisoners to arrest.

The excuses of the Lin family's father and son made him break it severely, and Mr. Huang even revealed his plan to use this as an excuse to investigate the matter of his family's hidden fields and hidden households.The Third Grandpa Lin seemed to see their Lin family being ruined like the Wang family, and all the families were imprisoned. Sweat suddenly broke out on the temples and forehead, the body gradually trembled, and the breathing sounded like a broken bellows being pulled in his chest.

Mr. Huang didn't feel sorry for him as an old man, and said sternly: "You and Chen Jue, Chen Pu brothers, Wang Fuchang, Xu Yuan, Xu Yan's nephew and others went to the Provincial Chief Political Commissioner, the Inspection Commissioner, and the Xunyan Yushi Yamen to falsely accuse Wu Ping. The magistrate was the first, and in the Linjiazhuang courtyard in the west of the city, he personally said the words of "intercepting the censor", clearly intending to deceive the superiors, and wrongfully imprisoned honest and honest officials!

"It's a crime for you to wait two levels to go to the province to appeal, it's a crime to falsely accuse the county magistrate of Wuping, and it's a crime to deliberately mislead the official to investigate the case... Your Lin family has been entrenched in Wuping for many years, embezzling fields, bullying ordinary people, and I don’t know how many bloody cases are waiting to be uncovered! Today, the official will punish you for the first three crimes, come here, strip Lin Ze, Lin Chulong and his son’s clothes, and beat him with [-] sticks for suing the officials and [-] sticks for suing the officials!”

"...Falsely accusing the county magistrate of violating the law and indiscriminate punishment. According to the original crime, he should have been punished with a staff of one hundred and flown two thousand miles. The crime of false accusation should be based on the original crime plus three grades. According to the law, it is planned to be hanged. After the execution, the two of them will be sentenced Throw him into prison, and wait for Wuping County to re-trial his Zhongtian property, money and other cases!"

The father and son of the Lin family shouted in unison, "I have merit" and "I want to redeem the rod". Huang Xunzhen pretended not to hear it, threw down a red-headed lottery, and ordered the yamen servant to drag him down to beat him.

The guards on both sides responded in unison, and rushed up like wolves like tigers, stripped the Lin family father and son, and dragged them outside the hall for execution.

The blunt sound of the board hitting the flesh, accompanied by the miserable screams of the Lin family father and son, splashed flesh and blood, frightened the faces of all the prisoners in the corridor.The applause of the people outside the Yamen became louder and louder, shouting "Qingtian", and scolding the Lin family for viciousness and shamelessness, for trying to deceive the imperial envoys and wrongly frame County Magistrate Song.

Although these voices all came from the bottom of the people's hearts and with deep feelings, but they shouted and vented their anger, and the voices of wanting to kill these big households gradually became louder.

Can't mess up.

You have to ask someone to guide you back.

Song Shi had learned the history of fighting landlords back then, and knew that it would be easy to cause accidents if these murderous intentions continued to ferment.There are so many people listening outside the door, if they really make a fuss, it won't work even if all the county government officials and people are scattered.He quickly pulled down the bodyguards around him, whispered a few instructions, and put them outside the door.

After a while, the voices of "Master Imperial Envoy" and "Qingtian" rang out from the crowded crowd outside the door. Wave after wave, the surrounding people rhythmically mobilized the people around to shout Qingtian, asking Master Huang to continue interrogating the other accomplices.

The organized and rhythmic voices sounded from all directions at the same time, and immediately suppressed the angry and chaotic shouts of killing.The emotions of the onlookers were also guided to turn around, and the hostility that had not yet piled up turned into dependence on the patrol with the sound of "blue sky".

This is also the loudest and most shocking "blue sky" Master Huang has heard in his life.

Huang Xun straightened his back calmly, his expression became more and more serious, and he called people to drag those who had filed complaints in the province to court, stripped off their clothes one by one, and dragged them down to beat them.

After beating them, it was the turn of the talented and Confucian scholars who wrote articles to falsely accuse and slander Song County Magistrate.

These people were all waiting for Lord Xunguan to come to the county to make decisions for them. They never thought that Lord Huang would change his clothes temporarily, from their relying on him to the Qingtian of County Magistrate Song, so they all stayed at home. He was detained by the people of Tingzhou Wei.Although the soldiers from the guard station left, these people were charged with kidnapping and patrolling, and they were all trapped at home, under the supervision of the township, and they were not allowed to leave the county. Trial in court.

Lord Huang brought Lin Linsheng up to the hall, looked at him carefully, closed his eyes slightly, and said slowly: "To judge the princes of the Wang family, we should correct the less serious than the more serious, and rely on the law to establish our prestige...Natural disasters have repeatedly fallen, and floods are raging... ...God has shown its cruelty... What a good article. It is worthy of being a young scholar in Xintai for 15 years, and a granary student who eats rice from the imperial court."

Lin Linsheng bowed and saluted, with a calm and tense expression: "Thank you for your praise, sir. It's really a student's honor that you can remember this article today, although..."

Master Huang sneered: "It's not surprising that this article is included in the articles of Wuping County who framed Song Ling. I can remember a few sentences today because Song Ling's son praised you in front of me. To apply for the suffering of the flood, please ask the imperial court to help and exempt the article. After hearing him mention your name, I remembered that you were also one of the people who wrote to impeach his father, so I re-read your article."

Lin Linsheng's face twitched violently, and he subconsciously turned his head to look outside the door—only the white walls and black pillars, and the barbeques standing solemnly on the two walls, but no people in the court could be seen.

And when he came in, Song Shi was sitting on the porch on the right side, talking in a low voice with Fu Tongju who was sitting next to their father and son.He was hurried past by the yamen servants, and he only caught a glimpse when he passed by. Song Shi just looked at the judge who was speaking, his eyes were bright, and he didn't pay attention to him, the sinner who was pushed past...

Even County Magistrate Song didn't look at him, he just stared at his son, only the magistrate looked up at him.

That Fu Tong Pan... The face of that Fu Tong Pan coincides with another face in his memory at this moment. It was the one who met them at Wangjia Biezhuang as early as the Song Dynasty when he was controlling the flood to save people. Shi elder brother Bofeng's man.

It turned out that since then they have been planning to clear Zhang Tianmu and deal with the big households in the county.

But his surname is Huan, and he is the lord of the sub-fu. Why did he pretend to be Song Shi's elder brother, and still live in the county government, and treat each other with the Song county magistrate's uncle and nephew?How could there be a relative named Huan in the Song family...

wrong!He has!

His family had an engagement with the Huan family who gave birth to the concubine of Zhou. In Song Dynasty, he was still the disciple of the concubine's father, so wouldn't the children of the concubine's family be his senior brothers?

They were only focused on complaining for a while, and they didn't notice that the new Tongdan in the mansion was the concubine's relatives, and this Huan Tongpan had a very strong friendship with Song Shi. Still walking like relatives...

They were wrong from the start!It's not that the Song family has no support, and the Song and Huan families have never broken up!

Huan Shilang felt sorry for the Song family because of his resignation, so he specially sent a son to make up for it!

He is here to support County Magistrate Song!Let them turn the clouds and rain in the local area, and use the land that the county's big family has managed for many generations to exchange for their official reputation and political achievements!

No wonder he dared to investigate the hidden households of Yintian as a county magistrate; no wonder the crimes he reported were passed by the government, and many of their family members had nowhere to pay, and they couldn't settle those old cases after asking everywhere; no wonder Mr. Huang clearly belonged to them The people who were invited from the mansion to investigate and deal with the Song family father and son, when they arrived in Wuping, they suddenly wanted to pay a private visit in disguise, and even asked the servants who stayed behind to hire soldiers to raid the Lin family...

The more he thought about it, the more he realized that his originally straight waist was a little slumped, the clothes on his chest were wet with sweat, and he felt that his future was bleak and hopeless.

The Song family relied on their power to oppress their kind people!Huang Xunyan was also bribed by the Song family, not making decisions for the people!The Huan family... Although Huan Ling is the backer of Song Xinmin and his son, it is the only life-saving straw he can grasp now.Blood welled up his throat, he clenched his teeth and said, "The student is willing to confess, but please sentence Huan Tong to court, the student can only confess to him!"

Huang Xunsong agreed to his request, ordered someone to move the chair, and invited Huan Ling to the hall.

Huan Ling went to the hall and thanked Mr. Xun for taking his seat, but Lin Linsheng refused to speak, insisting on recruiting to Huan Ling in private.Huang Xun frowned slightly, and said coldly: "What's your plan? I'm here today to interrogate the prisoner. It's not your turn to be picky!"

Lin Linsheng fixed his eyes on Huan Ling, and said word by word: "Master Huan, don't you want to listen to the students talking alone? It's because the students also wrote articles for the common people in the Wangjia Bieye when Song Sheren was controlling the flood. Come on, please?"

Huan Ling smiled slightly, got up and said to Mr. Huang: "I know what this scholar is going to say. I just said that before I took office in Fucheng, I went to Wuping to visit Song Shishu and his junior brother, and lived with Song Junior brother in the north of the city for a few days. , Follow up to check the disaster situation."

He said this frankly, blocking Lin Linsheng's words.

Mr. Huang also knew the elegant meaning after hearing the string song, he sneered: "So, you want to take advantage of the fact that Huantong was sentenced to Tingzhou not to take office immediately, and he made a detour to Wuping to visit the disciples of Xianweng, and threaten him to exonerate you? "

He, how dare he admit it? !

During those days when he lived in Biezhuang and the county government office, he always regarded himself as the son and nephew of the Song family, and he didn't even dare to reveal his surname, so why is he admitting it so openly now?

Isn't he afraid that if this matter spreads out, it will damage the reputation of Minister Huan and Princess Zhou?

Lin Linsheng clenched his fists and said in a hoarse voice, "The student doesn't mean that, the student just..."

"That is to sue Huan Tong for deliberately delaying on the road, and not arriving early?"

Huan Ling took a step forward and explained calmly: "As soon as I entered Tingzhou Wu, I heard that there was heavy rain in the north of Wuping City, and the water broke through the dam. The next official was appointed as the general judge of the government, in charge of money and grain, river work, and arresting robbers. I heard that the following The county was hit by a disaster, how dare you ignore it? Besides, the son of County Magistrate Song is the younger brother of the Xiaguan, and his late father loved him like his own son. When he was dying, he ordered me to take care of him. The Xiaguan heard that he had blocked a breach in the embankment and his life was in danger. How can we not save him?"

Although he heard that the place where Song Shi went to block the breach was not in Tingzhou but in Wuping, but the responsibility and filial piety came first, so there is no need to distinguish these details.

"In the face of the flood, I really don't care about the cumbersome etiquette of taking office. I have never violated the court's deadline, and I should be considerate in terms of etiquette, law, and human relations." Master Huang stopped, put away the gentle smile on his face, and threw down a few red-headed lottery , Commanded coldly: "Leap to the higher level to sue Wuping county magistrate, and leapfrog to the Tingzhou prefectural steward...Take off your clothes and give you a hundred sticks before trial!"

The yamen servants under the hall are already proficient in fighting, so they went to strip off their clothes.Lin Linsheng was so frightened that his face turned pale and then red, and he broke his voice with a cry: "I am a Lin student handpicked by the Ti Xueguan, how can you strip off your clothes in class and humiliate a student with a reputation!"

Huang Xun said indifferently: "You have crossed the two levels of the government and the chief envoy to file a complaint with this official, and specially attracted this official to Wuping County, so that you can grant this official on behalf of Tian Xun. Can crimes be stripped of all your clothes? Why are you asking such foolish words at this time? As for your fame, after I return to the provincial capital, I will ask Fang Tixue to fill in the dismissal document."

He patted the gavel in his hand and uttered a word heavily.

"beat!"

The screams of tragic struggle sounded from the hall, and the people outside the door were excited again, and some people lit firecrackers outside the door, and the crackling sound almost overwhelmed the sound of the inspector's judgment.Director Song immediately sent strong men to persuade people to put down the firecrackers, and sent professional audiences outside the door to shout to the sky to arouse the positive emotions of the people.

Mr. Huang tried the false accusation lawsuit all morning, but he didn't feel tired at all. Instead, he felt the satisfaction of being the master of the people. He was so excited that he didn't even want to spend time eating.He only drank a soup in a hurry, dipped in the wine glass, and urged County Magistrate Song to take advantage of the bright sky at noon to judge the case of the Wang family.

He was still the censor presiding over the trial, but Mr. Song had to add another table to the next jury.The first person to be interrogated was the head of the royal family, Wang Qin, who was the first to be responsible for the Yintian Yinhu case.

As soon as he got out of the car and appeared in front of the hall, the sufferers who were waiting to testify in the corridor exploded like a hive of bees that had lost their nest, crying and berating him for his crimes. Heart poison.A shrill female voice suddenly sounded from it, singing the familiar "Biography of the White-haired Fairy".

The hatred of the people suddenly surged, and the yamen servants hurried forward to stop them, persuading them not to make trouble in the yamen, not to sing songs, otherwise they will be rushed out and will not be heard.

Although those people were persuaded not to dare to do anything, they still bitterly accused him of crimes:

"In order to connect the fields together, you took a fancy to my paddy field and asked someone to trick my brother into gambling. Your cashier offered to lend him the money, and when he didn't pay, you forced him to sell the field..."

"In the year of Xinyou, there was a severe drought, and your house blocked the canal. Our chief led people to ask for water, but you broke his leg!"

"Your family wanted to open an embroidery factory, and you fell in love with my embroiderer. I refused to give her to your family, so you hired the street to let the evil young man come into my embroidery factory to harm the embroiderer, and destroy my embroidery frames and silk threads." ..."

These cries were even more soul-stirring than the screams of the scholar Hao Qiang who was tried this morning.Song Shi listened to this complaint, and listened to the faint "White-haired Girl" not far away, suddenly it was like listening to the genuine white-haired girl——

The same crime that can't be told, the same sorrow that makes the hearer sad, and the same power that hits people's hearts directly.

He sniffed, turned his head to Huan Ling's ear, and said in a low voice: "The following content of "The Legend of the White-haired Fairy" can be slightly changed, and changed to Master Huang as the master, and my father as the master. The people who were victimized Let's argue about Wang Shiren's crimes in the hall, and then go to the court for a trial, don't sing one by one. Then you will be added..."

Huan Ling was a little flattered: "How can I still have me?"

I didn't write about him before, because I was afraid that he would go to see old friends instead of taking office first when he went to the place of employment, and it would be bad for his reputation to spread the word.But this time he was ordered by the magistrate to do business, so it would be appropriate to add him in the trial section.

And there is another role that is really suitable for Huan Ling-he himself took the role of Dachun, and that brother Huan can just play Dachun's good brother, who was rescued by our team from the lock of the county jail.

Well, this ancient version is the detective Dahuan who came from the mansion to assist the two adults in handling the case.
