Reborn Farmhouse: Planting Fields, Flirting with People

Chapter 292 Opening the Trial (1)

At the beginning of the hour, the Yunxi county government, the sufferer and the suspect have all been brought.

In the solemn courtroom, He Zhixian, with the plaque of "Mirror hanging high" on his head, sat behind the public case, patted the gavel on the public case, and said in a deep voice, "You will be promoted."

Two squads of yamen servants in black clothes and soap boots lined up on both sides, slamming and killing mighty sticks and shouting: "Might...wu!"

The master stood on the left side and shouted: "The county magistrate will open the court for trial, and bring a group of people to the court!"

Jiang Fengyi led a group of people into the lobby, and everyone knelt in a row.

The court was solemn, the county magistrate was majestic, Mrs. Li, a rural woman, had never seen such a scene before, she was frightened to death, and knelt on the ground timidly.Mrs. Song was guilty of being a thief, and felt a little flustered.On the contrary, Li Shou and his wife had clear eyes, fearless, and their backs were straight.

This incident has been the most widely discussed in Yunxi County recently. The three floors inside and outside the courtroom were crowded with spectators.The big guys couldn't figure it out for a while, and couldn't tell which one was the culprit and which one was the suspect.

Jiang Fengyi clasped his hands and saluted, "My lord, the sufferers: Li Jiaxing, Li Mashi, Li Fu, Li Songshi, suspects: Li Shou, Li Liushi, have all been brought here."

After the report, Jiang Fengyi stepped aside respectfully.

Hearing another sound of gavels, Hezhi County's face was solemn and solemn: "Who is kneeling down, report the name quickly."

Everyone reported their family names one by one, and only then did the onlookers know their identities, and the melon eaters poked their noses at Li Shou and Liu Shi one after another.In the courtroom, you can't make mistakes, otherwise, those people might throw rotten eggs and rotten cabbage leaves.

Sharp eyes swept over everyone's faces one by one, and He Zhixian said kindly, "Get up and talk."

After everyone stood still, He Zhixian's gaze settled on Old Man Li.

"Li Jiaxing, there have been many rumors in Yunxi County these days. It is said that your second son Li Shou, who has been adopted, has stolen the secret recipe from the ancestors, betrayed trust, is unkind, and abused and humiliated his biological parents... Hundreds of students from the county school jointly petitioned to return You are fair. I am asking you today, is the rumor spreading true or false?"

"This this……"

The old man Li looked flustered. It was his first time in court. He thought that the county magistrate should try the suspect first, but he didn't think so, but he tried himself first.He hesitated in his heart and didn't know how to answer. After all, this matter was just a rumor fabricated by his daughter-in-law and could not be taken as true.

Now in front of the county magistrate, if he nods, the matter will be confirmed.No matter how the Magistrate decides in the end, there must be one person who will not be left behind... The fate of father and son has really come to an end.

Old man Li suddenly regretted why he came to the field today, why he went to court with his parents and children... Facing the accusation of the county magistrate, he really wants to pass now.

Old man Li refused to answer for a long time, and there was a sound of gavel in the hall.

He Zhixian spoke harshly and shouted loudly: "Li Jiaxing! I will ask you again, whether it is true that Li Shou stole your family's ancestral secret recipe for profit, beat and humiliated you and Li Mashi!"

Standing aside, Jiang Fengyi raised the corners of his mouth and almost laughed out loud.The trial of today's case is really interesting. This time Mr. He asked the case, obviously to avenge the victim, but now this scene is more like forcing the suspect to confess.

Old man Li trembled in fright, and replied repeatedly: "Yes, yes, true, true."

He Zhixian then asked the other three sufferers, Mrs. Li and Mrs. Song gave the same answers as Mrs. Li.Although Li Fu looked troubled, he nodded his head out of conscience, he could never expose his parents and his wife in court.
