369 Shengtang
The dull sound of the drums finally stopped. The government officials had put themselves into their work and brought Huang Yuanwai and others into the lobby of the government office. The master's head was bleeding and was not suitable to show up, so as not to affect the image of the government office. Liu Liwa temporarily pulled Xiao Dezi over and stood in the main hall facing the audience of the plaintiff and defendant, and shouted 'Emperor in the morning. Today, his voice lowered his value and shouted, "Master, go to the hall!"
"Wei...Wu..." The servants stood in two rows, tapping on the water and fire sticks, representing the official majesty.
Hearing such a majestic voice, the scene suddenly quieted down. Hundreds of onlookers were blocked at the door of the main hall. Huang stood outside the hall. There was also a young man, dressed appropriately and handsomely, and was also a talent. However, standing on the opposite side of Huang Yuan, he should be the defendant today. As soon as he heard the master ascended to the hall, The plaintiff and the defendant knelt down at the same time.
In the worship of the plaintiff and the defendant, Liu Liwa made a brilliant debut. He straightened his chest, raised his head and put his hands behind his back, stepped in all directions, and slowly walked to the high platform. In the face of the awe of the people below, he also experienced the pleasure brought by the power.
The plaintiff and the defendant knelt on the ground and raised his eyes. Suddenly, he was stunned to see the county magistrate's replacement. Huang Yuanwai blurted out, "You are not..."
Liu Liwa glanced at him lightly and sat in the position of the county magistrate. At the same time, as soon as he was bandaged, the master who was familiar with the people of the county appeared and took a step forward and announced loudly: "Blind date, Li Qianji, the last county magistrate of this county, has been dismissed because he is suspected of corruption. The specific situation is in progressing In the further trial, this is Lord Liu, who temporarily replaces the magistrate of our county.
Liu Liwa originally thought that the master had announced the news. The people at the scene would be excited, or cheer for the fall of the corrupt official, or be surprised that a good official was framed. Even if the tea is cold, he should show a little enthusiasm. Welcome the new county magistrate to take office?
But at this time, there was silence inside and outside the government office. An old lady was going to sneeze back. People looked indifferent, which showed that they didn't care at all. They didn't care who was the county official, or even the previous county official was. Suining County is a poor county. Even the basic resources of relying on mountains, eating mountains, relying on water and water are very limited. It is a gold collar that can work for businessmen like Huang Yuanwai, and the tenants who work in the landlord's house are white-collar workers. Most other people do some flexibility for some merchants. Basically, they barely make a living. The government has not given them a trace. With the slightest help, and they don't have any oil or water to scrape. The basic people and government are discordant and irrelevant, which creates such an indifferent attitude. Now the reason why I come to watch is that I have received the silver from Huang Yuan and created a great momentum to put pressure on the government.
Liu Liwa smiled awkwardly and admired those corrupt officials who were in poor counties and could still be greedy. What they scraped was not oil and water, but real blood and tears!
However, not everyone is indifferent when the new official takes office. At least Huang Yuanwai is very excited, because Liu Liwa met him yesterday and listened to his tearful narration. Maybe he has a preconceived impression of him. Maybe he will directly judge the batch of silk to himself. The more Huang Yuanwai thinks about it, the more excited he is. One head kowtowed to the ground and shouted, "Master Qingtian, please be the master of the grass people!"
The young man's face changed slightly on his knees next to him. He didn't expect that he had just connected with Li Qianji, and he fell off at the critical moment, and Huang Yuanwai actually met the new county magistrate. I'm afraid this is not easy to do. Fortunately, Huang Yuanwai has no evidence. As long as he insists, the new The county magistrate has nothing to do.
The young man reacted very quickly and kowtowed and shouted, "Please be the master of the grass people."
These two people competed so quickly. The plaintiff and the defendant shouted injustice at the same time, indicating the difficulty of the case.
However, Liu Li Wa didn't pay attention to them at all. The chair below was not hot. He was looking for the feeling of being an official. He leaned his back on the back of the chair and half squinted. He looked at the order arrows, pen, ink, paper and inkstones on the table, but he didn't even have tea. Such a powerful leader, not to mention drinking Maotai, it's okay to get some hair tips.
Liu Liwa was thinking about it. Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps behind him. The little emperor and the princess were behind the screen. It was like the school leader listening to the new teacher's class, as if he had taken the title examination. He smiled and quickly entered the state and said lightly, "Who is kneeling down?" Do you want to sign up? Who is the plaintiff and who is the defendant? Can the plaintiff have a piece of paper? Is the defendant at his own expense or apply for a lawyer?
He chattered, and everyone was confused. In the end, Huang couldn't wait. He took out the paper from his arms and said, "Your Excellency, Xiaomin is the plaintiff. He sued Han Jianren beside me and sued him for road robbery."
"Your Excellency, he is bloody." The young man named Han Jianren quickly said, "The little man is a scholar. How can he do that robbery? It's against the teachings of the saint. Please be aware of it."
"If you know it clearly, if you know it clearly, I will naturally see it clearly." Liu Liwa put away his smiling face and said with a serious face, "So, you two are the plaintiff and the defendant respectively. Who are the people outside the door?"
There has been no 'public trial' this year. The government office is not allowed to enter. Liu Liwa reasonably raised doubts. Huang Yuanwai turned his head and didn't know what expression he had done. Several old men and women in the crowd immediately stood up, full of vicissitudes of life, pointing to Han Jianren and said, "Your Excellency, we are Ordinary people in Suining County come here to affirm that adults uphold justice, kill evil thieves, and return a blue sky in Suining County.
"Yes, yes, my lord, Han Jianren is a famous bully. He has beaten the blind, scolded the mute, knocked on the door of the widow, and dug out the door. He is simply evil and full of evil. Please make the decision for us!"
Several old ladies burst into tears, and the old man was full of righteous indignation. It really looked like he was complaining in tears.
But as soon as they finished speaking, there were several well-dressed and well-behaved middle-aged men in the crowd. They all had beards, held paper, and hugged Liu Li Wei and boxed: "Your Excellency, we are the scholars in this county. Han Jianren has followed us to read and read since he was a child. He is knowledgeable and reasonable and has no power. How can he be a bully? Well, I would like to guarantee for Han Jianren. Please be clear.
Yo... It turns out that the two groups of people are well prepared. On the other hand, they are pitiful, old and old men and women. They don't need to talk. At this station, looking at their ravines and wrinkled old faces, they can arouse people's sympathy.
On the other side are a few decent and reasonable-looking readers, scholars, farmers, industry and commerce. The highest social level is 'shi', that is, officials, and officials are all readers. Therefore, readers have a very high social place to read books of sages and gentlemen. Tao, in people's subconscious, they will not do bad things.
This is a poor honest person, and the other is an honest scholar. Who is telling the truth?
