Chapter 134 Complaint
In the morning, the bright sun shines on the earth.

The guys took down the wooden boards of their shops one after another, and the number of people on the street gradually increased.

Some smiled and greeted acquaintances, and some sat in front of the food stalls and ate their favorite breakfast.

The two stone lions at the gate of the yamen have just been cleaned, and they look even more majestic.

A man in a gray trouser jacket with patches walked slowly to the front of the yamen with the help of an old woman in a washed-white dress.

Looking up at the solemn "Yamen" on the lintel, the two breathed a sigh of relief, but felt even more nervous.

The man muttered in a low voice: "Here we are, we are at the Yamen."

It seemed to be talking to the old lady, and it seemed to be talking to myself.

"Pillar!" The old woman swallowed, "Do you think... can we see Master Guan?"

The man called the pillar shook his head blankly, "Auntie, I... I don't know either!"

"Who is this?"

"I don't know, it looks like he came from the countryside."

"Shouldn't people in the countryside go to the county to file a complaint? Why did they go to the state government office?"

"Who knows? Maybe there is some grievance that cannot be resolved in the county?"

"..."

While the two were talking, many people gathered around to watch the excitement.

Chuncao held the bun in her hand and asked curiously, "Girl, we've arrived at the gate of the yamen, why don't you go in?"

Luo Mingchuan sneered, "If you went in right away, how could you attract so many people to watch?"

Chuncao nodded with a bun in her mouth, "That's true."

I saw people watching the fun pointing around, and the two parties concerned looked terrified and at a loss.

A cunning flashed in Chuncao's eyes.

She yelled into the middle of the crowd, gruffly, "Hey, there's a drum for complaints!"

"How can you just stand here? Be careful that the yamen will blow you away in a while."

The man named Zhuzi stammered and asked, "Drum...Knock...What drum?"

"I'll help you!" Chuncao swallowed the buns in two gulps.

He hurriedly ran over and handed the drumstick to the man very attentively, "Knock it!"

"I...I dare not!" The man said hesitantly, "How about..."

"Impossible!" Chuncao waved her hand and replied righteously, "You are the one who complained, not me!"

"Furthermore... Hey, what's that expression on your face? Could it be that you didn't come to sue, but to make trouble?"

After Chuncao's voice fell, someone responded, "You dare to come to the Yamen to make trouble, you really have the guts of a bear!"

other people:"·········"

How insecure are these people? !
The man gritted his teeth and walked up to the drum.

Closed eyes knocked the first time.

After the first knock down, the rest will not be difficult.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

A sound of drums broke the tranquility of the government office.

Soon, the two were brought in by the yamen servants.

The gate was not closed, and everyone wanted to watch the excitement, so they all went in.

Ding Tongzhi is in his 50s this year, tall and overweight.

With sharp eyes and picky eyes, it seems that he is a difficult person to get along with.

Wearing a dark red official uniform and a black gauze cap.

Sitting in front of the table with a sullen face, he glanced down the hall and patted Xingmu.

"Snapped!"

"Who plays the drums?"

Zhu Zi and his aunt's legs went limp, and they knelt down on the ground with a thud, "Small... Cao... Caomin, Caomin beats the drum."

Ding Tongzhi asked in an official tone, "Who are you and what are you going to sue?"

Zhuzi: "Little man, Caomin is from Liujia Village, Sha County, and the villain's name is Liu Dazhu."

"This... this is Cao Min's aunt. We are suing... the county magistrate of Sha County, Guo... Guo Liang."

Zhu Zi seemed very nervous, just these few words made his back drenched.

Ding Tongzhi yelled sharply: "What courage..."

"My lord, please spare me!" The pillar's head was lowered to the ground, and his surroundings would soon be covered with water.

Kneeling there, his aunt was also trembling, and stammered, "Don't be angry, my lord! I...we...don't dare to talk nonsense... You...you can't...you can't kill us!"

"Nonsense!" Ding Tong laughed angrily, "Is this the kind of foolish person I am?!"

"Let's talk about it, why did you sue Guo Liang, the county magistrate of Sha County?"

Aunt Liu: "Because... because he killed... killed someone."

"Killed? The county magistrate actually killed someone?" After the words fell, there was an uproar.

"Quiet! Quiet!" Ding Tongzhi patted Xingmu vigorously, "If you make any more noise, get out!"

Everyone: "..."

Everyone was silent, and suddenly stopped talking.

Ding Tongzhi's face softened a lot, "Go on!"

"Make it clear, otherwise, you will be served with great punishment!"

"Yes, yes, yes..." Aunt Liu kowtowed again and again, "Don't worry, my lord, I... I..."

"Bold!" The master next to Ding Tongzhi scolded in a cold voice, "How dare you call yourself me in front of adults?!"

Uh·······

Aunt Liu stared blankly, as if she had forgotten all the speeches she had organized just now.

Ding Tongzhi glared at the master dissatisfied: troublesome!

The master nodded respectfully, and the corner of his mouth twitched imperceptibly.

Ding Tongzhi turned his head and ignored him, "Okay, I forgive you for your innocence, just say it!"

"Yes, Master! You are really Master Qingtian!"

After flattering her, she began to say, "A plague suddenly appeared in our Liujia Village."

"A lot of people died. We were all scared."

"But what is even more frightening is that not only did he not find a doctor to treat us."

"Instead, the river dam was opened and the whole village was flooded. Poor my little grandson, who was washed away when he was only three years old."

"And my daughter-in-law, the child in her belly is seven months old, and... and..."

The more Aunt Liu talked, the more sad she became, and finally she couldn't help but put her head on the ground and began to cry.

Ding Tongzhi asked with a sullen face, "Is what you said true?"

"Of course it's true!" Liu Dazhu took the words and said tearfully, "If my aunt hadn't gone to another house for a drink, I just wouldn't be at home either. We...we wouldn't have a chance to redress our grievances!"

Ding Tongzhi's face darkened completely, "Someone, bring Guo Liang here!"
