Exclusive golden branch

Chapter 262
There are still people reporting to officials in Gusu City!
How many years has it been since someone knocked on the grievance drum at the gate of the yamen?It was 20 years since the beginning of the Great Zhou Dynasty, even if something happened in the cities of Jiangnan Road, it would be a trivial matter, far from the point where it would be necessary to use the grievance drum.

But anyone who wants to use the grievance drum must have committed a homicide!

After hearing the news, the people who came here surrounded the trial hall of the Gusu yamen with water.

Wu Youcai, who hastily changed into his official robe and cap, also came down to the front trial hall surrounded by the petty officials.

Although the sudden sound of the grievance drum shocked everyone, including Wu Youcai.But after the initial panic, Wu Youcai quickly calmed down.

Miss Jiang Si is here, what's so scary about him?

Wu Youcai, who had not been promoted in Baoling City, never expected to be promoted in Gusu City.

Sitting down surrounded by the eyes of the common people and the small officials, Wu Youcai knocked the wood awake, huh?What about Xingmu?
Since the county magistrate of Gusu hadn't been promoted for a year or two, Xingmu didn't know where to throw it.

The little official hurried back and searched all the way, finally found the Xingmu under the desk in the back office, and brought it over.

After getting the Xingmu, Wu Youcai knocked on the Xingmu and was promoted.

……

Amidst the sound of "mighty", the people who beat the grievance drum were quickly brought up.He is an ordinary-looking man, free from disease and calamity, and looks quite healthy.

Everyone looked curiously at the man who didn't look like he was being bullied at all, but rather looked like he was bullying others, waiting for him to speak.

"My lord, the villain Wang Gua is from Baoling City."

This Wu Youcai is a county magistrate in Baoling City, which is as big as a palm, so everyone knows it.

Hearing that he claimed to be from Baoling City, the surrounding people were a little surprised and thought: Could it be that something happened in Baoling City that made him come to Gusu?

But what this Wang Gua said next surprised everyone.

"The villain is here for a life lawsuit." Wang Gua said, "It was entrusted by our mother Chun to seek justice for her good sister, Nanny Hua, so that she will have the knowledge to rest in peace."

Is there knowledge in the underground that can rest in peace?It really is a fatal case!Everyone listened energetically to Wang Gua's next words.

"Our mother Chun is the mother of Huayuelou in Baoling. Since the Ghost Festival this year, she has been having nightmares, so that she can't sleep peacefully..."

In fact, the nightmare was because at that time Qian San was "dead to death" or something, Wang Gua thought.

But since it was what Chun's mother said, then just memorize it as Chun's mother said.

"I dreamed of my good sister Huamao, who had been dead for many years, standing there in misery, saying that she died so badly, and asking our mother Chun to avenge her..."

The common people who listened carefully in the hall trembled for no reason.

It's broad daylight, and you're listening to serious cases in front of the yamen, so why is it like listening to Mr. Shu's ghost stories in a teahouse?It's scary!

But soon someone expressed emotion: No wonder Baoling Teahouse is so famous, an ordinary brothel intellectual can tell the case like a storyteller, this may be talent!

One side of water and soil supports one side of people, Baoling may be a place that specializes in storytelling.

Wu Youcai also listened very seriously, and didn't interrupt Wang Gua's words: Miss Jiang Si said it, let him listen carefully to what she had to say.

"After our mother Chun woke up from the dream, I thought it was because Madam Hua had no money at the end. She burned a lot of paper and asked monks to chant scriptures, but it was still useless. It was not until the past two days that I suddenly remembered Hua Nanny wrote to her shortly before the brothel caught fire and passed away. You all know that Huayuelou in Baoling has always been full of guests, and my mother has a lot of things in her daily life, so she completely forgot about this..."

This person is well-informed, and the people who have been to Baoling in recent days whispered in the hall what happened to the big dog in Huayuelou.

Everyone suddenly realized that it is no wonder that they are not busy these days and have time to think about the past.

"Our mother found the letter, only to find out that the letter sent to her by Madam Hua before her death seemed to have a premonition early in the morning that something would happen to her. Sure enough, it didn't take long for Madam Hua to kill her. Leading the building, the girls, servants, and intellectuals in the same building all died in the fire." Wang Gua said.

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the hall, and some people immediately exclaimed.

"Needless to say, this death must not be simple, it must have been killed!"

Everyone responded again and again, and at this stall, someone spoke.

"The nanny who was burned to death even when people led the building? Don't talk about such things in Jiangnan, even in the whole week, I haven't seen a few of them! Why are they familiar, as if they have heard of them somewhere?"

As soon as these words came out, the people who were responding suddenly fell silent.

But after a moment of silence, someone soon spoke up: "This...isn't this the second Mrs. Yang that was rumored two days ago..."

The past of Mrs. Yang's past was spread two days ago, and everyone felt sorry for her.

Even the gambler father and son and the brothel girl who persecuted and beat Mrs. Yang were dug out.

The gambler father and son are now hiding themselves and not daring to see anyone, and the brothel flower girl is dead, she was burnt to death with people taking her to death, two days ago it was said that it was the punishment of God...

But right now, this scourge... er, is there such a coincidence of scourge?
Could it be that the prostitute in the brothel could also foretell that God will not succeed?
Could it be that God's punishment is man-made!Maybe it was someone who did it, let alone the Yang family... the power of the Yang family can really do it!

Wang Gua unfolded the letter that Mammy Hua sent to Mother Chun before she died, and showed it to everyone: the letter also contained plain words, and Mammy Hua was very worried, always feeling that something bad was about to happen to her.A ruthless but healthy old bustard began to think about retiring and returning to the countryside for the elderly, obviously there was something wrong.

The people who were still expressing sympathy for Mrs. Yang's experience two days ago felt that they had discovered the truth!
"Although Mrs. Yang is quite pitiful, the old bustard is not very good, but it is her father and brother who sold her, not the old bustard. The old bust paid for it. It is... In short, it is not enough to burn people and buildings. Die! You must know that besides the bustard, there are also poor girls in the building, as well as servants, cooks, and so on! How pitiful!"

There was a lot of discussion.

Wu Youcai was unmoved.

Miss Jiang Si said it, let everyone say it.The thoughts of the common people should be spoken out loudly, and His Majesty is open to speak out, so naturally Gusu City can't block everyone from speaking.

Seeing that Wu Youcai didn't interrupt his words, Wang Gua said in his heart: This is really the familiar Wu Youcai, it's not the same, so he continued.

"Our mother Chun felt that there was something wrong with this matter, and she was still sorting out the old things of Madam Hua, so she sent the younger one to report to the authorities." Wang Gua said loudly, "I'm afraid it's not God's punishment, but man-made!"

Jiang Shaoyan, who was standing in the hall and eating dried fruit, couldn't help laughing. She turned her head and looked at the steward of the Yang family who was standing behind the crowd with a slight change of expression, turned around and left, thinking: This is really...

The phrase "I'm still tidying up Nanny Hua's old things" was obviously meant for Dali.

I don't know how Dali will react when she hears it.
