The first assistant of the poor family

Chapter 323 Someone Above (Third)

Now the case is very clear.

Maybe some people can't stand the loneliness of keeping the chastity and stealing men, but no one can be cruel enough to self-mutilate.

Not to mention whipping yourself and dripping with wax.
cough cough.

Xie Shen coughed and said, "Come here, tell the patriarch of the Han clan to pass the court."

Since the yamen servant led the order to leave, there was silence above the lobby.

But Xie Shen rushed to the left and right to order: "The people are allowed to observe this case outside the yamen."

Li Tongzhi was bewildered and said: "What is the meaning of this move, Mr. Fu? How can such an indecent matter be tried publicly."

Xie Shen explained: "Li Tongzhi must be wondering why the government refused to open the trial before, and now allows the common people to attend."

"Exactly." Li Tongzhi nodded.

Public opinion is often critical, and sometimes parents and officials cannot withstand the pressure.Therefore, when trying some difficult cases, the parents and officials often do not allow the people to attend.

Xie Shen continued: "The reason why our government didn't ask the people to sit in on the case was because the case was still unclear. But now that the evidence is solid, it's time to ask the people of Lu'an to take a good look at how the government has resolved the case."

Li Tongzhi understood now.Prefect Xie intends to take advantage of this case to gain prestige.

Previously, one Huo Yuanwai was not enough, and another Han Yuanwai was needed
However, Li Tongzhi still reminded him kindly: "I am afraid that this move of Fu Zun will offend the Han family."

Xie Shen smiled and said: "This mansion is a fourth-rank official appointed by His Majesty to guard one side for the Son of Heaven, how can we be afraid of a nobleman?"

Li Tongzhi waved his hands again and again and said: "The Fu Zun misunderstood. If the Han clan is just a local rich family, Fu Zun naturally don't have to worry. But the uncle Hou Xun of Han Yang, the patriarch of the Han clan, is the governor of Shanxi."

Xie Shenwen couldn't help being taken aback when he heard this.

Governor of Shanxi?

He is very familiar with Beijing officials, most of the six ministers, ministers, envoys, and ministers of various temples are familiar with each other.

But if it was a magistrate, Xie Shen hardly knew anyone.

Although the governor is a dispatch officer in name, it has gradually become localized in recent years.

No wonder this Han Yang dared to commit such crimes, it turned out that there were people above.

"Then according to Li Tongzhi's opinion, what should the government do?"

Li Tongzhi laughed and said, "It's very simple, just go through the motions and suppress it."

Xie Shen sneered and said, "Suppress it? Li Sanniang and Li Tongzhi heard Li Sanniang's appeal just now, how can I suppress it? If the government really suppresses it, then how can it be worthy of this black hat."

Li Tongzhi was in a cold sweat.He thought that he didn't appreciate the good intentions of persuading the magistrate, so he stopped talking.

Xie Shen shook his head and said: "Actually, the government also knows that the superior should not be offended for the sake of official career, let alone an immediate superior like the governor."

After a short pause, Xie Shen continued: "But this government believes that the way of heaven is manifested, and any wicked person will be punished. This world belongs to His Majesty, not a governor. Even if he wants to protect Han Yang, this government also wants to protect Han Yang." Not afraid!"

Xie Shen's words were full of momentum, Li Tongzhi was taken aback by what he said, and it took a long time before he managed to utter a few words.

"The government respects the livelihood of the people in the world, and the lower officials admire it."

But admiration is nothing but admiration, but Li Tongzhi doesn't plan to follow Zhifu Xie into the muddy water.Anyway, Tongzhi is the second official, basically just a display, and he is not qualified to comment if the magistrate wants to make a decision.

In the future, it will be a good thing for Li Tongzhi that Zhifu Xie will offend the governor and be excluded because of this incident.

In this way, it is possible for Li Tongzhi to be promoted to the magistrate, fulfilling his lifetime dream of scarlet robe.

Han House.

All the yamen servants looked at the stern face of Han Yang, the head of the Han family, and dared not show their atmosphere.

After a long time, it was Han Yang who spoke first: "I heard the old man right, the magistrate wants to ask the old man to interrogate him? I don't know which one of the Great Ming law the old man violated?"

Bantou Qian put on a smile and said: "Look at what you said. It's not so serious. It's just that there are a few doubts in the case. The Fu Zun invites you to come to the yamen and talk about it."

"Humph!"

Han Yang didn't appreciate it, and said coldly, "What case?"

Bantou Qian wanted to scold his mother in his heart, but he had to reply as if he had wiped honey on his mouth: "It was Han Li who sued the case, and you have always been involved with it a little bit."

Han Yang sneered and said, "Han Li? But where is the old man's daughter-in-law? Before the old man sued her, she ran to the government office by herself?"

Bantou Qian groaned secretly in his heart, wondering why the magistrate dared to do anything to this Tai Sui Ye.

His old man is unlucky, and it is really sad that these servants should suffer together.

"The lord of the house has orders, and the younger ones dare not disobey. Please be considerate of your old age."

Bantou Qian had already spoken very politely, but Han Yang not only didn't buy it, he even said furiously, "Well, you lowly servant, how dare you talk to me like that. Come on, clap your mouth!"

After finishing speaking, several house slaves rushed out, grabbed Bantou Qian, and slapped Bantou Qian fiercely.

Bantou Qian was whipped out of all kinds of meat and vegetables, his eyes were staring, and blood was oozing from the corner of his mouth.

Even so, the yamen servants on the side didn't dare to move, they could only watch Bantou Qian being slapped.

They usually show off their prestige in front of the people, and they have never encountered such a situation.

It wasn't until Bantou Qian was slapped for forty or fifty times that Han Yuanwai said coldly: "Okay, let them get out of here!"

Those house slaves kicked Qian Bantou's ass so hard that he fell into the mud like a dog.

But when he heard a scream, Qian Bantou knocked out two front teeth, bleeding profusely.

The yamen servants didn't dare to delay, dragging the head of the money squad and leaving, they were in a panic.

After Xie Shen sat in the public case in the lobby, he waited for a long time and still did not see the suspect brought back by Qian Bantou for interrogation, so he urged a yamen servant to take a look.

As soon as the yamen servant came out of the lobby, he saw a group of brothers coming back dragging the bloody Qian Bantou, and he yelled.

"My lord, Bantou Qian has been beaten like this, you have to make decisions for the little ones."

Seeing this, Meng Jing, the deputy head of the court, was quite frightened and said repeatedly.

Xie Shenyin asked the reason clearly with a sullen face, and said bitterly: "This Han Yang, I don't want to give him face. Okay, I will invite him personally!"

After finishing speaking, he walked directly down the hall and rushed to the gate of the government office.

"Let's get all the people together, and go to Han's house with me!"

In the blink of an eye, Xie Shen rushed to the Chaohan Mansion with a group of yamen servants.

The magistrate's guard of honor, the official of Han's family, still recognized him, and immediately went to report to his master.

Han Yang lazily walked out of the mansion, cupped his hands at Xie Shen with great reluctance, and said, "I don't know why the lord of the mansion came to the humble house?"

Xie Shen sneered in his heart.

Hitting a person does not slap the face, but beating a dog depends on the owner.

Bantou Qian was ordered by Xie Shen to ask Han Yang to interrogate him, so Han Yang ordered someone to slap Bantou Qian, which was slapping Xie Shen.If Xie Shen doesn't get back his face, he doesn't have to be the magistrate anymore.

He immediately said in a deep voice: "This government is here to interrogate you!"
