I'm writing novels in Liaozhai

"Actually, this matter is not difficult to say. After all, the man surnamed Chu has done too many bad things. Many people in Taizhou have been bullied by him. There are similar cases in the murder case alone.

These things, once someone comes forward to file a complaint, someone will definitely testify.

In the past, it was because no one stood up to support it, so the Chu family spent money to settle it.

However, if Mr. Li is willing to find a former colleague to say hello, I believe that the officials in Taizhou will not dare to blindly protect him.

And I will go out in person to find a few sufferers, write pleadings for them, and go to court to file a complaint in person. "

"Huh? Sir, is he going to do it himself?"

Master Li couldn't help being surprised.

"That's right, since I already know about it, I can't let it go."

"But...but you are just a scholar. When you go to the court of Taizhou Prefecture, I'm afraid you won't be able to suppress the magistrate there..."

Speaking of this, Master Li suddenly patted his forehead: "By the way, I remembered something.

Last year, the man surnamed Chu committed a crime in Tiantai County, beating and maiming a man..."

According to Master Li, Chu Huairen's mother's natal family was in Tiantai County, so this guy would come here for a stroll from time to time, collaborating with his cousin Zhou An, and doing evil everywhere.

Last year, the two cousins ​​saw a woman in the street, and they moved forward.

As a result, the woman's husband rushed out angrily and clashed with Chu Huairen and the two of them.

However, the two of them brought servants, how could a man be an opponent?As a result, one leg was discounted in public, and he was permanently disabled.

Although the woman escaped unharmed, she was humiliated in the street, and her husband's affairs made her suffer too much, and she seemed to have changed since then, becoming a little stupid.

"It's not that I don't want to take care of these things, but I really can't take care of them. After all, there are too many evils like this..."

Master Li couldn't help but sighed.

Then he continued: "The man dragged his injured leg to the county government to sue Chu Huairen, but there was no result. Therefore, we can start from this and sue Chu Huairen at the county government.

The magistrate of Tiantai County is very familiar with me and has frequent contacts. I will go to say hello when the time comes, and he will definitely handle the case impartially.

At that time, slowly pull out what that guy committed in Taizhou... Once the case is settled, it will be difficult for Taizhou to cover up. "

Having said that, Gu Ming also thought it was a good idea.

So, after the two discussed it again, Master Li sent a servant to find the man whose leg was broken and come to the house.

About half an hour later, the man leaned on crutches and was supported by a woman, and walked into the mansion under the leadership of his servants.

"Xiaomin Zhao Deshui, I met Master Li."

As soon as he saw Master Li, Zhao Deshui hurriedly saluted him.

The woman was dumbfounded, neither saluted nor spoke.

Zhao Deshui turned his head and said in a low voice, "Lady, this is Mr. Li, why don't you meet me quickly."

Having said that, the woman bowed stiffly just now.

Gu Ming took a closer look, and found that the woman's eyes were blurred and she was dumbfounded. If she continued like this, she might be completely stupid.

Fortunately, I met him.

Therefore, Gu Ming stepped forward and said: "It seems that this eldest sister has been stimulated so deeply that she has developed a self-enclosed state, unwilling to face reality.

But it's okay, small problem, let her sit down, I'll give it a try. "

"Oh? Mister can heal illnesses?"

Master Li was quite surprised.

"Hehe, I understand a little bit."

Gu Ming smiled modestly.

Although Zhao Deshui didn't quite understand Gu Ming's self-enclosed words, it didn't stop him from being overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "My lady, hurry up, sit down and let the genius doctor treat you."

The woman nodded blankly, and sat down on a nearby stone bench.

Gu Ming stepped forward, raised his hand to her forehead, and secretly cast a ray of true energy into the other's mind...

Not long after, the woman's eyes suddenly became clear, and her expression kept changing.

After a while...

"Deshui, we...how are we here?"

"My lady, you are finally awake... Great, great, we are in Master Li's residence, this is Master Li.

Also, your illness was healed by this divine doctor, hurry up, thank the divine doctor..."

The couple expressed their gratitude.

After that, Master Li solemnly proposed to go to the county government to file a complaint.

Hearing this, Zhao Deshui couldn't help throwing his crutches and knelt down, crying bitterly: "Thank you, Master Li, thank you, Master Li, for being the master of the people."

Can he not be sad?

In the past, the husband and wife were affectionate and loving, they ran a small business in the city, and their lives were pretty good.

But since his leg was broken, he not only spent all his savings, but also owed a lot of debts in order to cure his leg.

Due to the inconvenience of movement and the fact that his wife has also become stupid, the business cannot be done. The life of the husband and wife has suddenly become poor, and they all rely on some relatives and friends to help them.

"Okay, when the time comes, you just need to cooperate with the witnesses and find some witnesses at the time.

The lawsuit is written by Mr. Gu, and he will let you fight the lawsuit. "

"Great, thank you Mr. Gu, thank you Mr. Gu."

"Okay, you two get up..."

Under the narration of the couple, Gu Ming began to write the pleadings.

After writing it, I read it again to confirm that it was correct, and asked the couple to press their fingerprints.

At the same time, Master Li also went to the county government in person to inform the county magistrate.

At first, the county magistrate was a little surprised and didn't understand why Mr. Li suddenly went to investigate this old case.

Speaking of which, he is considered a good or bad kind of county magistrate.

In short, he is just an old oily man in the officialdom, playing around with the wind.

When Zhao Deshui sued Chu Huairen last year, Chu Huairen sent someone to give some money, but the county magistrate declined.

Because he knows the silver is hot.

However, due to the Chu family's connections, he did not make decisions for Zhao Deshui... In short, nothing happened in the end.

Now that Master Li proposes to retry the case, he is naturally a little embarrassed.

"Master Li, why did you suddenly think of helping that couple?"

"It's not that I suddenly remembered, but that Mr. Gu is going to deal with that Chu...

That kid really did too much evil, you should do something good for the common people, this time you must handle the case impartially. "

"If you, Master Li, speak, the lower officials will naturally follow suit. However, the Chu family has always been powerful in Taizhou, and once the lower officials start the trial, there will inevitably be pressure from all aspects."

Although Master Li is no longer an official in the court, the county magistrate still regards himself as a subordinate official to show respect.

"Don't worry about this, I have already repaired a letter and sent it to the capital, if the Taizhou side puts pressure on you, you must resist it.

At that time, someone from the Ministry of Officials will naturally greet the Taizhou government.

If this case is successfully handled, it may also be an opportunity for you. "

Upon hearing this, the county magistrate's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "I understand, thank you, Mr. Li, for your kindness."

"Hehe, you're welcome, it's just a matter of one sentence."

With Mr. Li as a guarantee, the county magistrate naturally seemed to have taken a reassurance.

After Master Li left, he began to look through some old cases about Chu Huairen and his cousin Zhou An...

As the saying goes, beating a snake and hitting seven inches, since you want to touch that surnamed Chu, you must have enough crimes to make it difficult for the opponent to turn over.

That night, Gu Ming came to Taizhou Mansion again. After some inquiries, he found several sufferers who had been bullied by Chu Huairen...

the next morning.

The grievance drum at the gate of the Tiantai county government was sounded.

The person who beat the drum was Gu Ming.

Because this time it was he who came forward to fight the lawsuit for Zhao Deshui and his wife, which was equivalent to being an agent.

If Zhao Deshui and his wife are asked to play the drums, according to the rules, they are ordinary people, and they must first hit the board when they go to court.

If Gu Ming came forward, he would be able to avoid a punishment, after all, a scholar has a reputation.

For this, the county magistrate had been prepared for a long time, and he was ready in the back hall. As soon as he heard the sound of the drum, he ordered people to bring the drummer to the hall. He also changed his official uniform and took the master to the court.

"Who is in the hall, and why are you beating the drums to complain?"

After Gu Ming and Zhao Deshui went to court, the county magistrate patted the gavel tree and questioned them as usual.

"Returning to my lord, Gu Ming is a scholar in the Jinhua Mansion and is currently teaching in Master Li's mansion.

Going to court today is to sue for others.

This is the plaintiff, Zhao Deshui, and his wife, Zhao Wushi.

Last year, Zhao Wu was shopping on the street, but he met Chu Renhuai from Taizhou Prefecture and his cousin Zhou An from Tiantai County.

Chu Renhuai and his wife saw that Zhao Wu's family was in a good mood, so they stepped forward to molested him.

Zhao Wushi yelled for help while struggling.

Zhao Deshui was nearby, and when he heard his wife's cry for help, he ran over and pushed Chu Renhuai and the two away, and shouted angrily.

As a result, Chu Renhuai and his wife became so angry that they ordered four of their servants to beat Zhao Deshui in the street, and finally broke his right leg, resulting in permanent disability and seriously affecting his life.

This is the pleadings, sir, please have a look..."

"Master, present it."

"Yes, my lord."

The master came down and took the pleading paper, and handed it to the county magistrate.

In fact, the county magistrate knew all about this for a long time, but he pretended not to know anything, and carefully read the incident described in the pleadings.

After reading it, he asked again: "Is this really as written on the pleadings?"

"My lord, it's absolutely true, it's impossible for me to make fun of my fame."

"Is anyone testifying?"

"Yes, there were quite a few people watching on the street at that time, Chen Tiejiang from the Chen family's iron shop, Sun shopkeeper from the Sun's tailor shop, Mrs. Wang who sold vegetables, and Hu San..."

Gu Ming read out several witnesses in one breath.

Of course, there were many witnesses at the time, but most of them didn't want to get angry.Moreover, Zhao Deshui couldn't remember so many people.

However, as long as there are a few witnesses to testify, it is enough for the county magistrate to finalize the case.

Therefore, the county magistrate immediately ordered people to go to find these witnesses.

In the end, except for the salesman Hu San who was not found, the others all came to the court.

After separate questioning, several witnesses restored the situation at that time one by one, and the teacher recorded it, and several witnesses signed and pledged respectively.

Their testimony is enough to prove that it was Chu Huairen and his cousin Zhou An who first molested the women, and then beat Zhao Deshui viciously, causing him to become disabled.

The evidence was conclusive, and the county magistrate immediately issued an order to arrest him.

Because Chu Huairen was not in Tiantai County, the yamen servant could only go to Taizhou to fetch people, and, according to the rules, he had to notify the Taizhou government.

But Zhou An is easy to handle, this guy is in Tiantai County.

Because I was having fun until midnight last night, and I was still asleep at noon.

Several yamen servants rushed to Zhou's house to take people like wolves and tigers, and all of a sudden the Zhou family was thrown into chaos.

"Young master, the young master is not well, the people from the yamen are here to arrest you."

A servant rushed to the room and shook Zhou An awake.
