Zhu Zhishan said tremblingly: "I'm going to see the Marquis of Yong'an."

Wang Yushu's eyes widened with a ghostly expression. He looked at Leng Xiaohan and didn't know how to react for a moment.

Leng Xiaohan walked up to the top and sat down directly behind the desk.

Chi Yang did not follow him forward, but first helped Wang Yushu up and said deliberately: "Don't be afraid, old master, the Marquis is here."

Wang Yushu was completely in a state of confusion. He still hasn't figured out the situation until now.

How did his youngest son Wang Fugui become the Marquis of Yong'an?

And Zhu Zhishan was even more frightened and trembling.

Chi Yang helped Wang Yushu aside and sat down, then stood beside Leng Xiaohan.

At this time, Zhu Zhishan was still speculating on the relationship between Leng Xiaohan and Wang Yushu.

Leng Xiaohan didn't ask the kneeling people to get up, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Zhu Zhishan was frightened out of his wits.

"Zhu Xian Cheng, my brother died innocently, is this how you judge the case? Is one life worth one hundred and fifty taels?"

Zhu Zhishan was so frightened that he was shaking like chaff and his face was pale.

At this time, Wang Yushu also came to his senses and burst into tears.

"Fugui, your brother died miserably. He was beaten to death. You must make the decision for him!"

Although he was shocked at how his younger son had become a prince, the most important thing at the moment was to seek justice for his eldest son. A life could not be wasted like this.

The instigator of this incident was Zhu Zhichun. He allowed others to commit crimes but only served five years in prison and suffered some physical pain.

He is not a fool. This government office belongs to Zhu Zhichun's brother, so what's the point of this punishment? ?

There was dead silence in the entire court.

Everyone thought that the matter was finalized, but they didn't expect that there would be a reversal in the end.

Zhu Zhishan was crying now and didn't know how to answer Leng Xiaohan's words.

Wasn't he working all night in vain?

He scolded Wang Yushu fiercely in his heart: Why the hell do you have a son who is a marquis coming to complain to me? Doesn't this hurt me badly?

At this moment, even Yang Shuixian had forgotten the pain and looked stupidly at Leng Xiaohan, his eyes completely attracted to him.

It was not that she had never seen Wang Fugui before, but he seemed different today, which made her heart beat wildly.

At this moment, she was extremely happy. Fortunately, she did not covet the short-term glory and wealth, saying that this child was Zhu Zhichun's.

And this child has a second uncle who is a marquis. Will he still worry about his future in the future?

Leng Xiaohan looked down at Zhu Zhishan, who was kneeling at his feet, and said calmly: "Zhu County Cheng, you are so brave, you dare to protect your own cousin."

Now that the matter has come to this, Zhu Zhishan does not dare to argue, but simply kowtows and says, "I know my mistake, and I am willing to accept the punishment. I hope the Lord Marquis will forgive me!"

He lowered his head and sighed secretly, knowing in his heart that he might not be able to save Zhu Zhichun.

Leng Xiaohan looked at him, the coldness in his eyes a little lighter. This Zhu Zhishan was very smart. He had never made any big mistakes during his time as an official. He was also very fair and honest at ordinary times.

People are selfish, and it is understandable that they want to protect their loved ones.

Zhu Zhichun's sentence was indeed light, but five years plus one hundred taels of silver and a little physical pain were not worth a living human life.

But from Zhu Zhishan's point of view, it is understandable that he wanted to protect his relatives, and he did not bully others or use his power to suppress others. Instead, he tried his best to give the victims' families a large amount of compensation.

Leng Xiaohan has lived for two lives and has seen many dog ​​officials who murder people's lives and treat human lives as nothing.

So in layman's terms, Zhu Zhishan is actually a good official.

Zhu Zhishan's heart was aroused. He had been careful for so many years as an official and basically would not engage in malpractice for personal gain. Unexpectedly, he was caught doing it this time.

And this crime can be big or small.

So now he just wants to save his life, even if he loses his hat, it doesn't matter.

On this night, Zhu Zhichun was very out of his mind in court, even arrogant and not afraid of death, but what he relied on was that Zhu Zhishan was his cousin.

But now he saw Zhu Zhishan kneeling humbly at Leng Xiaohan's feet, and he was frightened for a moment.

It's not that he's not afraid of death, it's just that Zhu Zhishan is his cousin, so he feels confident.

Leng Xiao's cold eyes glanced at him, and Zhu Zhichun shivered in fear when he felt the actual killing intent.

Leng Xiaohan said calmly: "Zhu Xian Cheng, I will give you another chance to hear this case. I hope you can satisfy me!"

When Zhu Zhishan heard this, he trembled slightly and immediately kowtowed, "I accept your order. Thank you very much, Lord Marquis, for your magnanimity!"

The corners of Leng Xiaohan's mouth curled up in a vague smile.

This Zhu Zhishan really satisfied him, and this person was not a very evil person, and he was very aware of current affairs. Letting him go today would be useful in the future.

As for Zhu Zhichun, this person can no longer be kept.

He seems to be righteous and kind to his subordinates, but he has no remorse for killing someone.

Being so arrogant will definitely cause trouble in the future.

Zhu Zhishan stood up, raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, and then said to everyone: "Zhu Zhichun ordered his men to commit murder, which resulted in Wang Ronghua's death from serious injuries. His crime was serious and unforgivable. He was immediately imprisoned and executed three days later.

His subordinates who participated in the beating were each punished with fifty canes, and were imprisoned for ten years, and those who did not do anything were imprisoned for three years.

The thugs in the tavern were each given twenty taels of cane to serve as a warning. The tavern owner compensated the deceased fifty taels of silver, and Zhu Zhichun compensated the deceased one hundred taels. "

After he finished speaking, he took a long breath, then turned to look at Leng Xiaohan, and knelt down again.

Leng Xiaohan was quite satisfied with his heavy sentence.

Behind him, Zhu Zhichun shouted loudly.

"No...Brother, you can't do this to me...Brother...I was wrong...Brother..."

Leng Xiaohan frowned slightly.

Chi Yang immediately ordered to the guard on the side: "Cover his mouth and drag him down."

"Brother, brother, brother, save me...wu..."

Zhu Zhichun was dragged down.

When the thug in the tavern heard that he was only punished with a cane and did not need to go to jail, he immediately kowtowed to Leng Xiaohan.

"Thank you, Mr. Hou. Thank you, Mr. Hou."

"Thank you Lord Marquis for making the decision for us!"

Wang Yushu cried bitterly, got up from the chair and threw himself on Wang Ronghua again.

"Son, did you hear that? Your brother has become something new. He has avenged you. The person who harmed you will not have a good end..."

"Ronghua, why did you leave me and the child?"

Yang Shuixian clutched her stomach and stepped forward to cry, but she was actually looking at Leng Xiaohan from the corner of her eye.

Zhu Zhishan knelt on the ground and did not dare to express his anger.

Leng Xiaohan stood up, slowly walked out of the desk, and paused slightly beside Zhu Zhishan.

Zhu Zhishan's head hung lower.
