Chapter 244 County government trial
The Lu family brothers were also afraid, but thinking about Young Master Mao, they seemed to be less afraid.
Lu Daming boldly stepped forward: "My lord, this matter—"
"Aren't there too many rules in this courtroom? My lord, can anyone interrupt? If that's the case, what's the trial?"
Lu Daming jumped: "Yes, I reported the case, why can't I say it? My lord, don't listen to him wronging the villain!"
Zhao Xiang: "Are you the plaintiff? Your lord is asking about the plaintiff. You clearly don't take your lord seriously. What else can you say?"
Han San, Han Si, and Uncle Hu are most familiar with this routine, and they immediately incited the crowd. How could everyone from Zaihu Village, Bajiao Village, and Baijia Village who came later did not follow up?
Anyway, what Uncle Hu and the others say, they just follow along.
"That's right! Lu Daming, why are you so crazy, you've come to court!"
"Bah! You, a criminal and untouchable, dare to disturb the court! This is contempt for the court, and my lord will never let you go!"
"That's right! Despise the court, don't see adults in their eyes, can adults bear this tone?"
"Hey, is this courtroom a child's play? Any cat or dog can be presumptuous!"
"Hehe, don't talk nonsense. Be careful that you will be sued tomorrow. I heard that this Lu family brother has a backer, and the county magistrate's brother-in-law will support them. Otherwise, how dare they?"
"Even if the county magistrate's brother-in-law comes in person, he can't disturb the court, right? The county magistrate of Gaolian County is not named Mao!"
"That's right, the magistrate is not confused! Is it possible that someone can despise the court and disturb the court?"
"I see it too!"
The crowd clamored loudly, "Punish it! Punish it! Punish it!"
Lu Daming panicked, subconsciously looking for help to County Magistrate Yin.
County magistrate Yin's face darkened in an instant, wishing someone could beat him out.
What do you want him to do? What does this have to do with him? Tell the people to see it and not suspect that there is something tricky?
Lu Daming panicked even more when he saw this, and shouted angrily: "You are talking nonsense! Shut up! Shut up!"
"Look at how fierce he is! He is still so presumptuous in court!"
"Too presumptuous!"
"A lowly court is so crazy!"
"It's unreasonable that he still scolds us! It's crazy! Could it be that he wants to rebel!"
"Ah, I look like it too!"
Lu Daming's legs softened and he knelt down: "My lord, the villain is wronged!"
The crowd became more and more noisy, almost nailing Lu Daming to death.
County magistrate Yin was so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood, and Mao Dexing, who hid behind the screen to avoid suspicion, was also so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood. At the same time, I was a little secretly rejoicing: Fortunately, he didn't show up, otherwise the fire might have burned on him.
These troublemakers!
County magistrate Yin also secretly scolded the troublemakers in his heart.
He guessed that someone must be playing tricks here, but what can he do? Riding a tiger is hard to get off.
If he doesn't punish Lu Daming, who knows what else these people will shout about?
However, if Lu Daming is severely punished, wouldn't it be a slap in the face?
"Silence!" County magistrate Yin slapped the gavel heavily, stared at Lu Daming coldly and shouted: "Stand aside, wait for the officer to ask questions, and you will have the time to answer!"
He quickly got up and stood aside.
Sure enough, the feeling of having a backer is different. No matter how loud these people are, so what? Adults will always protect themselves.
Lu Daming is inflated and proud! It seemed that he was not Mao Dexing's dog, but the county magistrate's brother-in-law himself.
County Magistrate Yin looked at Boss Luo: "Luo Guangqi, please speak carefully! I will definitely decide with you!"
If an old slippery man hears this, his mentality will immediately stabilize, so why not follow the trend? However, if Luo Guangqi is so smart, quick-witted, and courageous, he wouldn't be a well-known wimp in Yancun!
Boss Gu has calculated everything correctly, but he has miscalculated Luo Guangqi.
Even a genius, there is no way to put a puddle of mud on the wall, let alone Boss Gu is not a genius.
Luo Guangqi trembled, "I, I" for a long time, and then tremblingly said: "It's, he, he, broke into, my, my house in the middle of the night, and beat, me."
County Magistrate Yin struggled to hear it, and said impatiently: "Zhao Xiang, what else do you have to say?"
Zhao Xiang: "My lord, there is no such thing. How could I do such a thing? I'm not afraid of your lord's jokes, if I really do it, I'm afraid I'm not his opponent!"
This is true, Zhao Xiang is a scholar, and Luo Guangqi is a farmer. In a one-on-one fight, who will win?
Lu Daming was anxious and wanted to speak, but finally closed it wisely, knowing that he couldn't know what happened in the middle of the night.
It’s impossible to know, of course you can’t open your mouth, otherwise you will be punished again.
The magistrate can protect him once, can he protect him again? Even if you can, use it wisely, don't worry now.
Boss Luo hurriedly said: "You, you are not alone, do you have help?"
"How many helpers?"
“.Two, no, no, three!”
"Then why did you only mention me? Who else?"
"I, I only saw you, no one else, no chance to see, see clearly."
"They are all from the same village. You see me, but you have no chance to see other people? This is a joke!"
"Didn't see clearly"
"So you are the only one who saw me clearly?"
"yes!"
"Where did I hit you? With a stick or a stone? Or something else?"
"All, all! All!"
County magistrate Yin was not wary of Zhao Xiang asking so many questions, and this surnamed Luo was such a wimp, he immediately scolded him angrily: "Enough! This officer is trying the case. If I don't ask questions, don't make a sound! This case has already been settled." It's very clear! Zhao Xiang, plead guilty quickly!"
"Is my lord being too unreasonable? Luo Guangqi, am I that stupid? Don't say I don't have any motive to hit you. There are so many people in my family. I need to deal with you myself? And let you see clearly who did it. It's me! But you can't see clearly the other two people? As for whether your wounds are caused by sticks or stones, please ask the doctor to come and examine them! I want to see if you have some truths in your mouth!"
Luo Guangqi's face turned pale, the blood all over his body became cold in an instant, and his mind was buzzing into cotton wool, what should we do? What is he going to say? How to say?
The people are clamoring even more!
"It's ridiculous! This man is full of lies, even I can see it, my lord can't see it?"
"Hmph, this Luo is really shameless!"
"But why did the surname Luo do this?"
"You don't know this, do you? The surname Luo has a daughter who has been a concubine with Mao Dexing, not for a while."
The people in the villages who have friendship with Zhao Xiang are really angry, they are too bullying! Who does the magistrate think of as a fool?
