Huazhi County felt palpitations when he heard the sound of the drums. In this rainy day, someone actually went to the county government to beat the drums, and his heart felt even more ominous. Seeing Ye Xiaotian's appearance at this time, there must be love However, he could only bite the bullet and ask, "Ai Dianshi, who beat the drums to complain?"
Ye Xiaotian clasped his hands and said, "Those who beat the drums and cry for grievances, Qingshan Huayunfei!"
As soon as this remark came out, there was an uproar in the hall, and Qi Mu's party members who mixed among the officials, gentry, merchants, and common people who encouraged everyone to make trouble immediately shouted loudly: "Hua Yunfei? Hasn't the murderer already been imprisoned? Just wait until the autumn Afterwards, the condemned prisoner who was executed went to the county government to sue? The government is unfair, the government is unfair!"
Ye Xiaotian looked over with sharp eyes, and the clamoring stopped immediately, they dared to offend someone who dared to confront Qi Mudao with knife and gun, and dared to slap Fan Da in the face. Ye Xiaotian said word by word: "Hua Yunfei is indeed a death row prisoner, but a death row prisoner is also a human being, and he has to sue if he is wronged!"
Hua Zhixian said in a low voice: "I just don't know, who is Hua Yunfei suing?"
Ye Xiaotian said: "Don't you know when the elder is promoted?"
Hua Zhi County hated him, he knew that Ye Xiaotian was going to give him another problem, so he would rather bite the bullet and have the cheek to let these officials scold him for a while than go back to this lunatic. Now that Ye Xiaotian has taken over one army, Huazhi County had no choice but to order: "Come here! Promoted!"
It happened to be raining heavily, and under normal circumstances, the yamen servants would disperse to each room to rest, and it would not take a long time to call them together, but today was different, Huazhi County only gave an order, and before anyone could summon them, the two classes of yamen servants were obsessed with fire and water The big staff rumbled in.
The yamen servants quickly cleared the hall as soon as they entered the hall, and drove all the officials, gentry and common people who were at a loss out of the hall, and drove them to stand outside the fence under the rain eaves. Immediately they stood in two rows, the big sticks of water and fire were beating like "Earth Red" with a thousand rings, and they shouted Tang Wei loudly.
Seeing this situation, Hua Zhixian felt a little bit in his heart: "This guy came prepared!"
Ye Xiaotian took off his dripping coir raincoat, Su Xuntian immediately caught up with two steps and took it graciously, Hua Qingfeng sat behind the desk and saw this scene, and cursed inwardly: "Bastard, my brother-in-law treats you so well, why don't you treat me so well?" I have never seen you being so attentive to me, knowing that he is a fake history, why are you slipping away."
The head of the prison personally escorted Hua Yunfei to the lobby, Ye Xiaotian clasped his hands and said: "My lord, I will serve as an official to arrest robbers and arrest criminals, and manage the prison. Today's complainant is a prisoner, because he has declared that he has suffered great grievances. It is the lower officials who have the guts to bring him to see the magistrate of the county, this prisoner has taken dozens of lives and is a repeat offender, for the sake of safety, the lower officials request a hearing in court."
Hua Qingfeng thought: "You're being polite, if I don't agree, you're going crazy or playing donkey, how can I get you?"
Hua Qingfeng coughed and said, "Sure, give me a seat!"
Ye Xiaotian cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, sir!"
Li Yuncong quickly moved a chair over, brushed it vigorously with his sleeve, and said courteously, "My lord, please sit down!"
Hua Qingfeng looked even more depressed.
Hua Yunfei was escorted by a prison car, which was not covered, so he was drenched to the skin, because he was a felon who had taken dozens of lives, and he was put in shackles and shackles when he was released from the prison cell. A young man who was not tall and strong stood there in shackles and chains, his hair was wet against his body, and his thin cheeks were pale.
Hua Qingfeng couldn't get off the tiger, so he had to sit still and ascend the hall, slapped the gavel, and said to Hua Yunfei: "Hua Yunfei, who are you suing and what crimes you charged, tell them one by one, in the courtroom, you must not speak falsely, if Deliberately falsely accusing, the crime will be increased!"
Hua Yunfei held the shackles with both hands, and said loudly: "My lord, Caomin sued Qi Mu, a military household in this county, for murdering my parents to death in order to seize a piece of tiger skin from Caomin's family!"
There was a sudden commotion among the crowd outside the fence, and some of Qi Mu's subordinates immediately shouted: "He is a murderer, he killed dozens of people in the Qi family, and has a grudge with the Qi family. It's revenge, it's a false accusation! It's a false accusation!"
Ye Xiaotian was sitting on one side and had been staring outside for a long time. At this time, he suddenly stood up, pointed out with his hand, and said loudly: "This, that, and that, roaring in the court, interfering with the elder's questioning, pull down, everyone Hit the top 20 boards again!"
Bantou Zhou waved his hand, and several arresters immediately rushed forward, pulled out the three people Ye Xiaotian pointed out from the crowd, dragged them down without any explanation, and fell down in the rain, while the other Zaoli rushed forward, swung their sticks and beat. Those people protested loudly at first, but then there were only screams of crying for their parents and mothers. The blood flowed down from their bodies and was quickly swept away by the rain. It was shocking to watch.
The onlookers were secretly startled, this crazy scripture was indeed ruthless.
Hua Qingfeng was annoyed in his heart: "Is it you or me who is sitting in court? Is it you or I who will be interrogated? If you want to order someone to be beaten, I should give the order. If you take advantage of the situation like this, where do you put this official?" ?”
It's just that although Ye Xiaotian is a fake official, his aura is getting stronger and stronger, and Hua Qingfeng doesn't dare to hold him accountable. He coughed, pretending not to notice that Ye Xiaotian had exceeded his power, and only said to Hua Yunfei: "How did Qi Mu kill your parents, and the details, please tell me one by one."
Hua Yunfei hunted a fierce tiger and sold tigers on the street for the first time, which attracted the attention of Qi Mu's subordinates and began to talk about it. When talking about the scene of his parents being killed, Hua Yunfei hesitated for a moment. What he said: "It doesn't matter what means, what matters is what you want to achieve, what rules do you have with a hooligan?"
Hua Yunfei gritted his teeth and said loudly: "Caomin... I saw with my own eyes that Qi Mu brought people into my house, found the tiger skin, and ordered Xu Lin, Brother Xiang and other thugs to torture my parents to death. "
Hua Qingfeng was so shocked that she stood up from behind the case, leaned forward, and said anxiously: "You said...you saw it with your own eyes?"
Hua Yunfei said: "Not bad!"
There were a few of Qi Mu's subordinates in the crowd, who were frightened by Ye Xiaotian's prestige and had been afraid to speak just now. Now that Hua Yunfei said that Qi Mu was at the scene of the murder and that he himself was a witness, he panicked.
They are used to doing whatever they want with good people, they are used to using all kinds of means to achieve their goals, they are used to good people being bound by all kinds of restraints and rules, tied hands and feet and allowed them to oppress, they are really not used to it Others use the same tactics against them.
No, shouldn't Hua Yunfei tell the truth? Xu Lin, Brother Xiang and others are already dead. As long as he tells the truth, Bao Qingtian will be resurrected. It's just that Uncle Qi bought stolen goods by mistake. How... did it become like this
A man from Qi Mansion couldn't help shouting: "He's lying! If he was there, why didn't he save his parents? Why did Xu Lin, Brother Xiang and others behave so well? hatred?"
Hua Yunfei said loudly: "Because, they despicably dropped Mongolian sweat medicine in the water tank of my house. At that time, I was also poisoned by Mongolian sweat medicine. I crawled into the yard and hid behind the woodpile before the onset of the attack. When they killed my parents, Although I have woken up, my limbs are still weak and I am powerless to save people!"
Hua Qingfeng calmed down and said, "In that case, why didn't you report to the government?"
After saying this sentence, Hua Qingfeng wanted to give himself a big mouth, but as expected, Hua Yunfei said in a sneering tone: "Qi Mu is domineering, and in Yurou Township, there are too many things that are devoid of conscience. I, Huxian When did the government uphold justice for the common people? If it weren’t for the history of Qingtian, I, Hua Yunfei, would not be able to take revenge, and I would die, and I would not sue the court!”
Hua Qingfeng became angry from embarrassment, stood up all of a sudden, slapped the gavel forcefully, and shouted: "You are bold!"
Ye Xiaotian got up slowly, and said in a deep voice: "My lord, according to the investigation, the Hua family couple in Qingshangou died violently, and the death conditions were terrible. After Hua Yunfei entered the city, he specifically targeted Qi Mu's people. Xu Lin, Brother Xiang The death of the others is the same as that of their parents, obviously for revenge.
Hua Yunfei deserved to die for murder, but it cannot obliterate the fact that his parents were murdered. Since Hua Yunfei witnessed the murderer committing the crime, the officials thought that the murderer should be brought to justice immediately, otherwise if so many people in the court leaked the news and got away from the murderer, the consequences would be disastrous! "
Hua Qingfeng looked at Ye Xiaotian, and suddenly understood everything. What Hua Yunfei was beating the drums to appeal for grievances was just a play directed by Ye Xiaotian. This county magistrate is only playing the role of a notary, just like Luo Daheng on Huang Daxian Ridge back then, it is not up to him to decide whether or not to fight this duel.
Hua Qingfeng sat back weakly, lowered her head, was silent for a while, waved her hand lightly, and said, "Go!"
The corners of Ye Xiaotian's lips curled up slightly, he arched his hands towards Hua Qingfeng, and stepped back to the outside of the lobby step by step, when he was only three steps away from the threshold, Ye Xiaotian flicked his robe sleeves, turned and left the lobby.
Outside the lobby and in the courtyard, it was raining heavily, and at some point, the arresters, Zaoli, and Minzhuang who had been summoned had already filled the courtyard, and the rain was pouring on them, but they stood upright one by one, like a statue.
Ye Xiaotian watched them quietly under the eaves for a while, then suddenly strode out, walked into the rain, and stood with them. Ye Xiaotian was drenched through in no time, and the big raindrops hit his face with a faint pain.
Ye Xiaotian pursed his lips, letting the rain flow down his cheeks. Everyone was looking at Ye Xiaotian. The person who was standing there like a stake, the moment he saw Ye Xiaotian, his eyes suddenly shone, and his whole body glowed with vitality.
Ye Xiaotian shook his voice and said: "Qi Mu is rampant and lawless. In Yurou Township, there are many crimes, too numerous to record. I don't know how many people have suffered from it! Why are they able to escape so far?"
No one answered him, only the sudden and non-stop sound of rain, and the gentry and merchants under the canopy of the lobby also held their breath and listened silently. Ye Xiaotian said: "Because Qi Mu has people, money, power, and endless insidious means, but this is the reason that the little people should shirk, is it the reason you should shirk?"
Ye Xiaotian pointed to the policemen and the strong men who stood standing in the rain: "You represent the imperial court, you are officials, you are Xu Shi, and you are people who are called eagles, dogs, claws, tigers and wolves in the literati! This title is not good, is it? But If, as law enforcers, you don't even have the ruthlessness of eagles and dogs, that would be a great shame!
Anyone can be afraid of Qi Mu, but you can't! If a poor official is as docile as a little sheep in front of powerful bullies, what else can the court expect from you, and what else can the people expect from you? The people ask you for justice, who do you ask for justice? "
Ye Xiaotian wiped the rainwater from his face, shook it vigorously, and continued: "We have a seal, a knife, and a king's law in our hands. Why should we be afraid of him? What you lack is courage and courage. , is domineering!
What is domineering? It is because he is disobedient and wants to run over him! If he is obedient, he will also run over him! Show your ruthlessness, a person like Qimu has to be more domineering than him, to behave like a little white rabbit! In Hu County, he is heaven? ha! Big joke! At best, he could be regarded as a cloud, but the cloud will always dissipate, and the rain will not keep falling! "
When Ye Xiaotian said this, the torrential rain suddenly stopped. Ye Xiaotian was so startled that he almost jumped up: "Damn, it's a miracle! Could it be that I'm God's illegitimate child?" But he immediately realized that something was wrong, the rain... just stopped on top of his head, and the police officers in front of him were still drenched in rain. In the pouring rain.
