Chapter 22 Li Slam's Sweet Dream
For some reason, Li Manguan felt his brows twitch when he looked at the tall and burly country man standing in front of him.

Obviously he has already taken care of it, but the momentum of the other party is really terrifying.

But thinking about it again, it would be good if he went, and he would be willing to accept the account, and the bear skin worth thousands of taels of silver would belong to him.

"Go, go, as you say!"

Soon, several people had arrived at the Yamen.

Qin Daniu is a reckless countryman after all, how could he know that he would get into a lawsuit.

Let's not talk about the result of going to the Yamen, just thinking about it makes my scalp tingle.

But now this is my sister's business, even if I bite the bullet, I have to go with it.

Li Manguan was the first to stand in the courtroom, looking at the county magistrate in front of him, the villain was the first to file a complaint.

"Master Qingtian, I want to sue this woman. He previously lent me four hundred taels of silver, which was written here in black and white, but now he wants to renege on the debt. Please, Lord Qingtian, give me justice."

The county lord sitting in the courtroom stroked his beard, squinted his eyes and said, "Show me the IOU."

He had been vented by Li Manguan a long time ago, and Li Manguan stuffed him with fifty taels of silver, and there was a full hundred taels of silver as a reward after the matter was completed.

How could he not do this kind of business of sitting back and enjoying it.

Soon Li Manguan completed the IOU.

The county lord glanced at it, slapped it with a startle and said: "Bold woman, it is clearly written in black and white, you owe Li Manguan four hundred taels of silver, why don't you pay it back?"

Qin Zhiyi has no fear, she has already guessed the result, but Fei Chengcheng's righteous words just now convinced her.

So she said: "My lord, I never lent him four hundred taels of silver. I am an ordinary woman in Qinjiazhuang, and I can't write at all. The handwriting on it is neat and beautiful. Even if a commoner's wife practiced for three to five years, she would not be able to do it." Such neat handwriting."

Fei Chengcheng stood quietly beside Qin Zhiyi, staring closely at the county master who was sitting in the courtroom.

At this moment, the county master only felt uncomfortable being stared at by these eyes, but he didn't doubt anything else.

Instead, he said loudly: "Are you saying that you can't read and write if you don't know how to read? What if you are lying? Someone, drag this tricky woman out..."

"grown ups."

Fei Chengcheng said, with a calm and introverted tone: "This IOU, in my opinion, you should take a closer look. If you are convicted of an unjust and wrongly decided case, according to the laws of the Dali Kingdom, you will be beheaded in severe cases, and dismissed in light cases."

Hearing this, Li Manguan squinted slightly to look at Fei Chengcheng, and then looked at the county master sitting in the courtroom above his head.

The county lord nodded slightly, originally he wanted to drag the reckless man who spoke out against him directly, and beat him 20 times.

But in the next second, he saw the badge of the reckless man standing in the courtroom.

Just looking at the tiger stripes printed on it, his whole body softened.

No wonder he said that this person is very intimidating, but he turned out to be a member of the imperial court.

Fortunately, he didn't hit the board, otherwise, I'm afraid he would lose his head.

"Have you read it carefully?"

Fei Chengcheng asked again, but the county master had already changed his tone: "Well, I have read this IOU carefully, and I do have some doubts."

The county lord swept towards the people in the hall again.

And look at Li Manguan who has been winking at him all the time. At this moment, he doesn't have the mentality of wanting to solve the case before.

He had long heard that the imperial court had sent an imperial envoy to pay a private visit. Could this be the imperial envoy?
Regardless of whether it is true or not, this is something he can't afford to offend. He must use his family's skills to try this kind of case.

So he said to the master next to him: "Master Wang, go and get the pen, ink, paper and inkstone to that woman. You can stare at her and write your name. You must not let her scribble. Do you understand what I mean?"

When Master Wang heard the words, he immediately responded, and ordered the servants next to him to fetch pens, ink, paper and inkstones.

Li Manguan was still complacent, and now he was confident that Yu would get back the bear skin.

Brushes, ink, paper and inkstones were placed in front of him. Qin Zhiyi looked at the brush and grabbed it in his hand.

God knows that she really can't write calligraphy, and fortunately the original owner is a person who can only read but not write.

So when she picked up the brush and began to write the three characters of Qin Zhiyi very seriously, not only did she write crookedly, but because she couldn't control the rice paper and the brush, the three characters were written in a mess.

Master Wang stood by and kept shaking his head. Just looking at this posture and the strength and skill of writing, it is enough to prove that this woman really can't write.

After writing the name, Master Wang held Qin Zhiyi's written name and the IOU, and placed them in front of the county master.

The magistrate made a careful comparison, and his eyebrows jumped even more.

The characters are all written like this, not to mention the comparison of strokes, the two characters have no similarities at all.

But he didn't move, but asked Li Manguan: "You said you lent her four hundred taels of silver, when and where did you lend it to her, can anyone prove it?"

Li Manguan said generously: "It's at my house. He was my father's wife. Later, my father died of illness, so he kicked her out of the house."

In his opinion, Qin Zhiyi has already been kicked out anyway, so it doesn't matter if she reveals those scandals, it's nothing more than ruining her reputation and has nothing to do with their Li family.

"When your father died, will your father's wife be kicked out?"

Li Manguan continued: "She doesn't obey women's morals. She married my father back then, and my father suffered a stroke and was paralyzed in bed, but she became pregnant. What is it if it's not an affair?"

"God has the virtue of good life, and my Li family doesn't care about it, but she did borrow the four hundred taels of silver from me. There is no witness, and she secretly lent it to her just because she thought she was pitiful."

"What nonsense!"

The county master slapped the gavel again: "Just now I asked Mrs. Qin to write her name, and the strokes are not similar to the previous signature. Moreover, there are clear fingerprints on the place where she signed, which is completely different from the fingerprints on your IOU. It is different. It is enough to prove that your IOU is fake."

"Say, why did you frame a woman!"

How did Li Manguan know how the case that had been agreed on before would turn out like this.

He thought the county master was joking with him, and said with a playful smile: "My lord, it is true that she borrowed my money. As for the handwriting and fingerprints, maybe it is not the same finger, or maybe she wrote the name carelessly on purpose."

"If you don't tell the truth until now, come and drag him out to beat him twenty times!"

With a yell, two people walked out immediately, and dragged Li Manguan out.

Everyone in Li Manguan was frightened, and he didn't say loudly until he dragged to the door: "My lord, I was wronged, my lord, I was wronged..."

Before he finished speaking, he was dragged out, and the person next to him picked up the board and hit him hard on the buttocks.

As soon as the board went down, Li Manguan almost passed out from pain.

It was too late to wait for him to cry out in pain, and then came the second wrench...
