Lin Gao Qiming

Chapter 466 Autumn Fu (22)

On the morning of the interrogation, Wu Ya and Sun Ruiwu came neatly.The two of them had a restless night—only when they returned to their home did they find out that all the servants sent out today to handle errands had been prevented from coming back, and they were said to be strictly guarded, and they were not allowed to enter or leave the county government office without authorization.

Early in the morning of the second day, the two of them cheered up, washed up early and came to the flower hall.I saw a public case and a dozen chairs set up in the hall, and some of the gentry involved in the case had already arrived and were meeting people in the yard.

Sun Ruiwu's eyes were better, seeing that Liu Dalin had arrived and was talking to someone in the hall, so he hurried over to greet him.

Judging by Liu Dalin's complexion, he seemed to be in good shape.Wu Ya was surprised that this semi-hermit who usually stayed at home would come to hear the trial——in his capacity, he could at most send a butler.The face of this Australian is really big!

Because the questions were asked in the flower hall, all the rituals and notes for the promotion were avoided.The official case of Wu Ya and Sun Ruiwu is based on the first one, and the second one is also set up for Zhou Dongtian.The next two classes of Zao Li, each holding water and fire sticks, stood neatly, but their clothes were in disarray, and they had everything they wore—the public uniforms were stripped off by the students from the Political and Security Administration.

Zhou Dongtian watched this as a court scene on TV, and knew that he would be a "grand lord" to try the case in a while, so he felt very awkward.I thought that this trial system must be reformed in the future, otherwise it will be like acting all day long!

Lin Changsan saw that the officials had already taken their seats, and the gentry had also arrived, and was about to take the lead in shouting for Tang Wei, when Zhou Dongtian waved his hand: "Bring up the prisoner!"

Immediately, the three criminals were brought to the court, and Zhou Dongtian asked the usual questions such as their names, ages, and places of origin. He knew that these three were not criminals at all, and they were just acting at the moment, so he started asking about the case without saying anything.The three of them were also very happy, and they took all the crimes away.

"Who ordered you to do such a thing!" Zhou Dongtian scolded.

"Returning to the master," said a man in the middle, "it was Li Gong's order."

The expressions of the gentry who were watching changed.Li Gong is Li Xiaopeng's personal entourage, and everyone in the county knows it.Everyone knows that Li Xiaopeng followed Huang Tikun to organize petitions everywhere recently.Everyone's eyes fell on Huang Tiankun at once.

Huang Tinkun was taken aback, he didn't expect to be blamed on himself!He was about to stand up to make a distinction, but when he saw Liu Dalin shaking his head slightly, he restrained himself and looked at what was going on.

Zhou Dongtian didn't know who Li Gong was.Ask: "Who is Li Gong?"

Someone nearby replied: "It's Li Xiaopeng's long-term follower."

"Li Xiaopeng?" Zhou Dongtian flipped through the materials at hand and suddenly realized, "So it's the young master of the Dung Ba family."

When this title was said in public, everyone in the hall couldn't help laughing. The slaves grinned sullenly, and the gentry hid their faces and sniggered, or simply drank water and pretended to cough.

"Where did you buy the knife?"

"It was given by Li Gong."

"What about bows and arrows?"

"It's also what he gave."

Zhou Dongtian sneered and said, "Is the confession true?"

"Every sentence is true, the little ones dare not lie to the master."

"Where can you shoot arrows? How many crossbows did you use?"

How do they know this?They all looked at each other in blank dismay, one of them said boldly, "It's on the street in front of the gate of Mr. Liu's house, ten stone bows."

"Nonsense!" Zhou Dongtian patted the case and said, "Shooting arrows in front of the door, why is the direction where the arrow hits is in the opposite direction? Ten stone bows, wait for Li Guang to be born again! Besides, Li Gong has no grievances or enmity with all the gentry, why? Doing this? It doesn't make sense, and you're clearly lying!" He said and shouted: "Everyone will hit twenty first!"

The yamen servants of Zaoban shouted in unison: "Twenty hits!" Come up and pull the three of them down to the hall to walk the sticks - there are Fuhe who have said hello, this is a familiar routine, the board is just the head of the stick on the ground, listen The crackling was very lively, but in fact there was no missing piece of skin on the buttocks.After a few moments of fighting, he went up and down.Seeing that the three people were just pretending to be in pain, Zhou Dongtian knew that the underlings were making a fake.His face sank:

"Play me the trick of hitting the stick on the ground?" Zhou Dongtian showed a ferocious expression, "Xiaoyou, give me a good way to deal with some desperate bastards!"

You Guotuan brought a few interns from the Interrogation Section of the General Administration of Political Science and Security, and immediately came over and turned the Zaoli who was walking just now to the hall to kneel down.These people were held by anti-joints, grinning in pain.

"What are these useless people doing with their hands?" Zhou Dongtian waved his hands, "I'm useless!"

There were a few clicking sounds in the hall, and the joints of several saponins were immediately removed by special techniques. The screams were endless, and some people fainted on the spot from the pain.

"Sun Dianshi!"

"Yes, yes." Sun Ruiwu didn't expect the Australian to commit murder on the spot, and was already trembling with fright.

"These useless people are useless, let's go!"

"Yes, yes, fire immediately!"

At that moment, these people were dragged down to the hall to be tied up with ropes. You Guotuan led the on-call interns of the Interrogation Section of the General Administration of Political Science and Security. The individual was tied up like a zongzi and thrown on the ground, with a rope tied around his throat-this is what Wu De taught them, and the prisoner can be silenced without gagging.

All the people in the hall looked pale, they expected that these Zaolis whose hands had been wrenched off would not end well, at least they would have to be sent to Nanbao to open stones.

"Pull it down and hit it again!" Zhou Dongtian ordered.

The Zao slaves had long been frightened to the point of trembling. Lin Changsan had more experience and knew that he had encountered a "strength order" today, so he didn't dare to be negligent, so he quickly took care of him: "Really fight!"

The three were pulled down immediately.After all, it was their own life that mattered, and the Zaolis were extremely heavy-handed. After twenty boards, the three unlucky guys had only the strength left to breathe.

"I'll ask you again, are you the ones throwing knives and shooting arrows?"

"My lord, please be kind, it's not a small one—"

"Who is that!"

"Yes—yes—" Now several people were in trouble.Fu He and the others couldn't afford to offend them, and felt extremely remorseful, why did they do this for a few taels of silver!

"Fight again!"

"Sir, stop beating!" Seeing that their lives would be lost if the beating continued, the three quickly confessed that it was Fu He's instruction to bite Li Gong.

The gentry were quite surprised, Fuhe had nothing to do with grain collection, so why bother to wading through the muddy water?Sun Ruiwu and Wu Ya knew that this was Fu He's attempt to blackmail the Li family.It is a common trick used by Kuaiban yamen servants.

"Come on, bring Fuhe!"

For a moment, Fuhe, who was still grinding his teeth with his subordinates in the classroom, brought him.Seeing the bloody buttocks and thighs of the three hapless bastards, he thought to himself that Lin Changsan was too ungrateful for that bastard.I took care of those who needed to be taken care of, and also gave the staff money, but I was so ruthless.

"Fu He!" Zhou Dongtian yelled, "These three people are not the criminals in this case. It is inappropriate for you to find someone to take the blame at random, and you also instructed these three people to bite Li Gong with the intention of blackmailing, what crime should they deserve!"

Fu He knew that the matter had been exposed, but he was an old man for many years, so he was able to deal with this situation naturally. He said without fear that these three guys were scoundrels in the county.

"... If the master convicts only on the basis of these three people's one-sided words, it would be too gullible to trust others' words."

Zhou Dongtian smiled and said, "In that case, I'll let you understand." After he waved his hand, someone had already turned on the amplifier of the tape recorder, and the sound of him talking with three unlucky bastards in the teahouse came from the loudspeaker immediately. recording.

The amplified voice of Fu He echoed in the flower hall: "...as long as you insist that Li Gong ordered you to do what you want to do!..."

"How about it, do you want to continue listening?" Zhou Dongtian asked.

Everyone in the flower hall was terrified and speechless: a black box can emit human voices!This is terrible, and it's a black art to be able to repeat what others have said!Could this be the legendary "shunfeng ear"?Huang Tikun was even more shrouded in fear, his face was ashen.For a moment, he felt that he was an overreaching ant trying to shake the big tree.

Fu He lay limp on the ground, unable to utter a word, only trembling blindly.Hearing Zhou Dongtian's questioning, he lay on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, begging for mercy.Immediately, he went to find Chen Minggang himself and took his money, including telling people to bite Li Gong for extortion according to his request.

"I see you are honest!" Zhou Dongtian said slowly, "I will give you a chance to commit crimes and make meritorious deeds, within half an hour, and bring me the real criminal!"

"Yes, yes, the little one will go immediately." Fu He left in a panic.

There was a dead silence in the flower hall.A cold sweat dripped down their backs.Zhou Dongtian examined everyone's expressions with satisfaction.It seems that the effect of killing chickens and monkeys is good.These big families and gentry really have to give them some color to see how powerful we are.Then he cast a mocking glance at Huang Tikun.Seeing that Mr. Huang almost collapsed to the ground.

After a while, Fu He led the people to bring the three people who were bribed by Zhou Qi.These three people didn't use torture at all, so they had to come to the hall to see the power and the lessons learned from the past-a few bloody butts, and immediately recruited everything.

I heard that the instigator was Zhou Qi, and everyone had a look of "it should be so" on their faces.

"Arrest Zhou Qi to the case!"

The following things went very smoothly. Zhou Qiyi was arrested and brought to the case, and he was recruited immediately:

"The one who bribed these three people to intimidate the gentry and the scholars is a small one."

"Oh, why do you want to do this?"

"You little ones dare not!" Zhou Qi kowtowed repeatedly, "This is—this is—" He hesitated on purpose, as if there was something hard to say.

"Speak quickly! So as not to suffer!"

"It's my little master, Chen—Chen—Chen Minggang told me to do it."

Although this was the expected confession, when Zhou Qi said it, there was still a burst of suppressed exclamation in the flower hall.Wu Ya and Sun Ruiwu secretly sighed: Chen Ming is just finished!
