Chapter 385 Cross the river and demolish the bridge
"Successful!" Qingluo glared at him and slapped the gavel, which startled Lin Liu and went down in embarrassment.

This Lin Silin Liu is good in everything, but there is one thing. If there is nothing to do, he will run to her and praise their second master.

Good two big men, they acted like pimps...

Let's say that Qingluo patted the gavel, and the famous criminal master is in place, and the trial will officially begin.

Luo Shi, who was kneeling below, looked at it for a long time, and felt that the county magistrate was unreliable.

Is there any county magistrate who doesn't even have his own master, so he calls two of them over temporarily?
This is too sloppy team...

"Luo Shi, what is your grievance? If it is not a matter of life, you will be kicked out!" The county magistrate spoke.

According to the rules, during the annual farming season, the county magistrate should be most busy with persuading farming and disaster relief.

Except for criminal cases, there are generally no court hearings.

If she dared to beat the drums and voice her grievances at this time, she had to be prepared to be punished.

Luo's face showed no fear, and he spoke clearly: "The housewife Luo's husband is Yang Dazhi from Xishantang, who opened a small restaurant in the town to make ends meet."

"Well, what then?" Qingluo listened carefully, and glanced at Lin Liu at the same time, seeing that he was using his brush like flying, looking very professional.

Luo continued: "My father-in-law has a kind heart. When I see beggars on the road, I will take out some porridge every day and give them alms. But we are a small business, and we can't give much. Each person can only get a bowl .”

Qingluo nodded: "This shows that you have kind hearts, and it's a good thing."

"The women also thought so at the beginning. Anyway, life is still going on. If you do some good deeds, it will be regarded as accumulating virtue." Luo Shi sighed. After a long time, some of them complained, disliked that a bowl of porridge was not enough to eat, disliked that the porridge was too thin, and scolded the husband for being unkind..."

Qingluo frowned.

This kind of thing is clearly a matter of Sheng Mi's kindness and Mi's hatred.

Not everyone knows how to repay their kindness, and it is taken for granted that the whole world is his mother's people, there are too many.

"Since they don't know what's good and what's wrong, it's just that you don't give alms." Qing Luo didn't say any formal words, and said directly.

Luo Shi said sadly: "My lord is kind. He said that since people don't have enough to eat, we can give them an extra bowl. At worst, we can earn less. Who knows that this year's drought, business is not good, and the store is getting more and more difficult. We can only maintain our family's livelihood. There is no more porridge..."

"and then?"

"Those beggars and poor people have gotten used to eating during this period of time. When they heard that we no longer gave out porridge, they came to our door and smashed everything in the store..." Luo Shi said, covering his face with his hands , sobbing in a low voice, "They swear in the store every day, there is no business in the store, and they have ruined Xianggong's reputation. If Xianggong can't think about it for a while, just, just..."

Qingluo: "What's the matter?"

"Master, he threw himself into the river..." Luo Shi whimpered, "Although he was rescued, he was in a daze. He only knew how to sleep and couldn't do anything... There were only two of us, mother and child, and we couldn't go on living any longer. ..."

She cried sadly, and the yamen servants on both sides put away their sluggish looks, and unconsciously stood up straight.

"Mother, don't cry..." The child next to her wiped her tears. He was so dirty that he looked like a little beggar.

Thinking about it, Luo Shi was exhausted physically and mentally, and he didn't have the energy to deal with him.

"Be good, Bao'er." Luo Shi wiped away his tears and continued, "I originally planned to take my husband and the child back to the countryside. Who would have thought that those beggars would still not let us go, and would come on time every day to block the door and ask for food. I can't go on..."

She kowtowed twice and cried, "That's why the women want to sue those who forced my husband to death and ruined my family! The magistrate of the county is the master of the women."

What a wealthy family of three, to be tossed like this.

Even Lin Liu, who was recording at the side, shook his head frequently.

Qingluo said: "Huang Butou, you go to Xishantang and bring the troublemakers here."

"Yes!"

Huang Butou immediately led a few policemen and led them away.

Since the county seat is some distance away from Xishantang, during this time, we can only rest temporarily.

Qingluo asked Feng Jia to take Luo's mother and son to Ouyang County Prime Minister, find a stool, pour some water, and let them rest.

When Catcher Huang brought the person and reopened the hall, so as not to frighten the child, Qingluo only let Luo Shi attend the hall and left the child with Ouyang County Cheng.

Qingluo said: "Captain Huang, bring the defendant here."

hula-la-

Surprisingly, twenty or so people rushed in all of a sudden.

The not-so-big courtroom suddenly seemed crowded.

Among the people who came in, there were beggars in ragged clothes, and there were also healthy people with neat heads and faces.

Unless you have a reputation, you will kneel down when you meet your parents and officials.

These people knelt on the ground as soon as they came in, shouting indiscriminately, "I have seen the magistrate" and the like.

The entire courtroom was suddenly noisy, like a vegetable market.

Qingluo slapped the gavel, and said angrily: "Shut up, sir!"

Some timid ones kept their mouths shut, but most of them were rascals. When they saw a young female doll county magistrate, they would be somewhat contemptuous, and their speech and behavior were a little unpleasant.

"You two!" Qingluo glanced around coldly, and threw down two lottery sticks casually, "Put these smiling faces at twenty boards each!"

When the beggars heard this, their faces changed immediately, they quickly put away their contempt, and kowtowed for mercy.

But the lottery has already been thrown out, it's too late for them to regret it now.

Feng Jia and Feng Yi came out two, pulled one up, swung the water and fire stick, and beat them with no mercy.

Twenty boards down, these people will be completely honest, why are they called, and they don't dare to fart.

"Who has anything to say now?" Qingluo swept her cold eyes.

Those people knelt on the ground, lowered their heads, and no longer dared to stare at her unscrupulously.

"Okay, let's continue the case." Qingluo said slowly, "I ask you, why did you smash up the Yang family's shop, forcing them to have nowhere to go?"

A well-dressed man raised his head and said, "My lord, we didn't force them, it's all Yang Dazhi's fault!"

Qingluo: "What did he do wrong?"

"Master Zhixian, don't listen to Luo's one-sided words." Another person answered, "Yang Dazhi used to give out porridge for free, but he just used us poor people to gain a good reputation as a good person. Now that he has a reputation, They started crossing rivers and demolishing bridges, and wanted to collect money from us, why?"

Luo Shi couldn't bear it anymore, and retorted loudly: "Our porridge is prepared for those who really can't afford to eat. You surnamed Sun, you are obviously rich, but you still come to eat and drink. Why did my husband say anything? This year Because the family is in difficulty, I just hope that you will pay two copper coins when you come to eat porridge, so that we can continue to give alms to those who cannot eat, but what about you?"
