Chapter 48
The people of Dazhou are open to the public, and the county government allows the common people to watch the daily trial of cases.

Seeing that the scholar was invited in, the people who were originally onlookers and the people who were attracted by the Dengwen drum immediately filled the county office with three floors inside and three floors outside.

"Who is in the hall? Why are you beating the drums?" The county lord ran out in a panic holding the black gauze hat. He was depressed at first, but after seeing the scholar standing in the hall, his anger subsided a little.

Well, a good look in the life of a student.

But it's still a little bit of anger, anyone who is eating a beautiful breakfast, but is so startled by the sound of Dengwen's drum that the steamed stuffed bun almost gets stuck in his throat, wouldn't he be in a beautiful mood.

"My surname is Lin, and my name is Ruizhi. I have met you." Lin Ruizhi lifted up his robe and knelt down.

"Why do you play the drums? Anyone who plays the drums must be related to the affairs of the military and the country, or those who are greedy and evil, or those who have suffered strange injustices, can only beat the Dengwen drum, otherwise they will be punished with thirty sticks. Can the hall know?" Humph!If you dare to beat the drums just for trivial matters, even if the kid in the hall is good-looking, you have to beat the drums first.

The yamen servants on both sides struck the killing stick at the right time.

The master who followed came closer to the county master and said something in a low voice.

The magistrate raised his eyebrows, "Oh?"

Master nodded.

This kid actually came with a coffin?

Well, sure enough, the boy is not the one who likes to make trouble. The county master looked at the boy in the hall again, with a calm expression, "What grievances can I complain? Come quickly."

Lin Ruizhi straightened his thoughts, "Please forgive me, my lord. I don't have any major grievances, and I don't have any major military affairs. It's just an urgent matter, and human life is at stake. I have no other choice but to make this bad plan. If my lord You need to take the responsibility of sticking, the boy will never say anything!"

The scholar knelt straight like a pine, and his words were sonorous and powerful.

The county lord was silent for a while, although he wanted to hear the reasons why the scholars did this first, but the rules are inevitable, otherwise the county government will never have a safe life in the future, and anyone can come to beat the Dengwen drum.

"Okay, since you said so, the county will remember it first, and after you have finished your statement, the county will decide whether to reduce or exempt a few sticks." The county master raised his hand, "tell me."

"Thank you sir!"

Lin Ruizhi's warm and powerful voice sounded, "The boy from Huaining County was originally an orphan. Before his grandfather passed away, he told the boy to take good care of his aunt. After his aunt passed away, his uncle also passed away one after another this year, leaving only two siblings. The boy came to Shanyang once three months ago, and that time Jiang and his cousin asked for the Baicao Hall, but the Baicao Hall is in the hands of the boy, so Jiang has no choice but to give up."

".Two months ago, my cousin came to Huaining again, saying that Mrs. Jiang ordered her to borrow the deed of Baicao Hall, and wanted to make a pledge. The boy thought that his cousin was still young and would spend a lot of money on studying in the future, so he rejected Mrs. Jiang's offer. For example, it happened to be snowing heavily in Huaining, and my cousin was trapped in Huaining for two months."

"...After my cousin left two days ago, the servant who came to Shanyang to inquire about the news happened to come back. The servant told the boy that Jiang had wanted to marry his cousin to the eldest son of Mr. Zhang, Yuanwailang, but that family... Fortunately, My cousin is in her filial piety, so she escaped this calamity."

"Boy, my cousin came to Huaining this time with Jiang's mission to ask for Baicao Hall. I'm afraid it's not good to go back empty-handed now. The kid was worried, so he ordered someone to chase after him, and he followed closely. back."

The scholar's voice is round and full, and his speech is clear and well-founded, not to mention the magistrate, even the crowd of onlookers fell silent. The young people in the hall attract
"Unexpectedly, the servant who came after me came back yesterday, saying that my cousin did not bring back the money pledged by Baicaotang. Jiang was dissatisfied, and punished her cousin to stand for half the night. She developed a high fever that night. Yesterday, my cousin's maid thought I was going to ask for a doctor, but I didn't expect that the doctor would be sent back before he entered the door, the boy was shocked, afraid that his cousin would do something wrong, so he rushed here overnight."

"The boy has been taken care of by his grandfather and uncle for many years. Now they are gone. The boy is the only relative of the cousin's natal family. The boy heard that the second master of Gu's family left the family yesterday without taking any money. Now that the cousin is young, the cousin I don't know if I'm going to live or die, so I'm bold enough to ask my lord to order Gu's big family to separate, and Gu's big family can get nothing, so that my cousin's life can be saved, I beg your lord to make the decision!"

The young scholar knocked his head heavily.

The onlookers were woken up by the knock, and many felt their faces were cool, and they stretched out their hands to wipe it, and they didn't know when tears were streaming down their faces.

Poor Miss Gu, my unscrupulous grandmother!
No, step-grandmother!

If it was her biological grandmother, how could she do such a heartless thing!

Didn't you see that the second room didn't want a penny and left?
I heard that when the lady of the second bedroom came out, there was only one breath left.

In this way, Miss Gu is really not good.

"I saw it, I saw it, there was indeed a servant girl in the Gu mansion who rushed out yesterday, saying that the young lady is dying, and begging the patriarch of the Gu clan to ask for a doctor!"

"I saw it too. Yesterday you all left and I stayed quietly, but in the end, I saw that the doctor didn't even enter the door and was dismissed."

"It's so pitiful! This father who just died will be forced to die, what a black heart!"

The noisy voice became louder and louder, the county lord coughed lightly and slapped the gavel, "Silence!"

"I beg your lord to let the Gu Mansion separate the family. Yesterday, the second master of the Gu Mansion can separate the family without taking a penny, and the Gu family's eldest family can also do it, as long as one life is left, and the county master will make it happen!"

Lin Ruizhi's voice was very contagious, and the onlookers were unconsciously aroused and shouted, "Separate! Separate! Separate!"

Seeing the young people in the hall full of tears, the county master clasped his fists to thank the crowd.

The county magistrate, "." Is it okay to treat me as dead?

However, it is difficult for an upright official to decide on housework.

The county magistrate looked at the master.

The master thought about it, after all, human life is at stake, and the sufferer has sued the county government, no matter what, this matter must be investigated first before we talk about it.

If the facts are as the scholar said, even if Mr. Gu is a fifth-rank official and two ranks higher than the adults, the adults cannot turn a blind eye.

Otherwise, if someone sues Fucheng, the adult's performance appraisal in the coming year will be in danger.

The master explained his thoughts to the county magistrate in detail.

The more the county master listened, the more reasonable he became.

After the two discussed it, the county magistrate sat up straighter and slapped the gavel.

"What you said is only one-sided, but after all, human life is at stake. If you want to come to Tangxia, you won't be aimless. Come here—"

"My lord!" Several yamen servants came out more and more.

"Take someone with you and go to Gu's mansion to see what's going on. If it's true, please ask the doctor."

"My lord!" the scholar couldn't help but said, "If it's true as the boy said, please take my cousin out first, otherwise even if you invite a doctor to visit today, you will know whether your cousin is alive or not tomorrow."
