Reborn on the day of marriage! After the marriage exchange, the elder sister went crazy

Of course, Li Jinglan doesn't need to go to court.

Zhao Zhengyi can represent her.

She hired an old student as her lawyer.

When the court was in session, Li Jinglan was in the backyard of the county government office, talking to the county magistrate's wife, Xu Xianzhi.

Xu Xianzhi had read the complaint and seen the physical evidence.

When talking about this, he looked disgusted: "I studied hard for several years, but he wanted to destroy it with just a piece of fire."

The teacher's wife Liu was even more terrified: "If he really succeeds in framing me, my Yongqing..."

Liu gritted her teeth in hatred.

Outside the court, Lu Cunren was urged into the court by the bailiffs.

too suddenly.

Lu Cunren never thought that Lu Bozhou would sue him.

And this class started very suddenly.

He didn't even have the chance to go to the capital to find Lu Xuande.

There were two rows of yamen runners on both sides of the court, beating the ground with black sticks in their hands.

"mighty!"

A mighty voice rang above his head, and Lu Cunren was so frightened that his legs went weak.

"Who is here? Why don't you kneel when you see me?" Magistrate Xu said in a stern voice.

Lu Cunren stepped forward and knelt on the ground: "Student..."

"How dare you!" Magistrate Xu slammed the gavel.

"How dare you call yourself a student without any academic achievement? Listen to my orders. If this person continues to hesitate and keep silent, he will be punished with ten strokes of the cane!"

"Powerful! So powerful!" The yamen runners pounded the ground again with the soap sticks in their hands.

Only those who pass the examination to become a scholar can meet officials without kneeling and call themselves students.

Lu Cunren was frightened by the gavel and the killing stick, "I am a villain, I am Lu from Xishui Village, Lu Cunren."

Next, the lawyer comes on stage.

Explain the whole story.

Lu Cunren refused to admit it: "I don't know what you are talking about. I have never framed Lu Bozhou."

"With all the evidence and witnesses here, you still want to quibble?" The lawyer pointed outside the hall.

With this finger, a scoundrel was pushed into the hall.

Lu Cunren's face looked pale.

As soon as the rascal saw Lu Cunren, he wanted to eat Lu Cunren's flesh and blood alive.

He was just a ruffian in Beijing, enjoying the sunshine in Beijing without causing any trouble for anyone.

As a result, he was called upon by Lu Cunren to harm others.

Before he could harm anyone, he was held down by the bailiffs.

My parents were still in jail.

I finally managed to scrape together five taels of silver to redeem my parents.

He was thrown into jail again and was severely beaten for several days.

The scoundrel pointed at Lu Cunren and said, "Your Majesty, it was he who gave me a fire starter and told me to throw it into Lu Bozhou's basket."

"Because there were too many candidates that day, I couldn't find out which one was Lu Bozhou, so I didn't throw it away..."

“Then, I was caught.”

Lu Cunren had no idea that Li Jinglan had been watching him for a long time. He thought that the rascal was caught outside the examination hall and was shaking with fear.

The students standing outside the courtroom were talking about it: "We caught the criminal red-handed."

"Lu Cunren is really cruel and vicious."

"Their family has abused Lu Bozhou for four years, and they even want to ruin Lu Bozhou's path to the imperial examination?"

“So vicious!”

"Maybe Xia Jifang was also framed by him. He was jealous of Lu Bozhou and even did not spare Lu Bozhou's relatives." Student Hu shouted outside.

He tried his best to pin the blame on Lu Cunren for Xia Jifang's incident.

Xia Jifang kept claiming that he was framed.

He and Xia Jifang were the five children who guaranteed each other, so of course he hoped that Xia Jifang would get off the hook.

These scoldings reached Lu Cunren's ears.

He wanted to argue, but he didn't dare.

This is the government office.

The county magistrate sitting above has the power of life and death.

The yamen runners standing on both sides could hit him at any time with the soap sticks in their hands.

He was scared.

Lu Cunren gave up resistance: "I was just confused for a moment, and that's why I made such a big mistake. I was really just confused for a moment!"

"Master, please spare my life. I didn't mean to harm Lu Bozhou. I was just confused for a moment."

Hearing Lu Cunren's confession, the students standing outside the court clenched their fists.

"Drop him out! Get him out of the community school!"

"Such black sheep cannot stay in the community school."

"I will never coexist with this thief!"

"You bastard! Maybe Xia Jifang was also harmed by you. I will file a complaint and sue you too."

The head of the yamen runners took the opportunity to gain favor among the crowd.

"In fact, the government organizes us to go outside the prefectural examination every year to protect the candidates from the county. It's just that these things didn't happen in previous years, so you don't know about it."

Student Hu didn't believe it: "Then why didn't you see Xia Jifang being framed?"

"Brother, we can only manage what's outside the Dragon Gate. What's inside the Dragon Gate is not our responsibility." The head of the yamen runners spread his hands.

The students thought it made sense.

Xia Jifang's smuggled items were discovered inside Longmen.

It really is none of the business of these yamen runners.

Several students looked at the head of the Yamen Runners with a friendly look, "I'll have to thank you for your support during the next exam."

"Okay, okay." The head of the yamen runners felt very happy that he had gotten the business.

As long as you give enough money, protecting anyone is protection!

Since Lu Cunren has confessed, there is no objection to this case.

Magistrate Xu discussed the matter with his lawyer and prepared to close the case.

There was a sudden noise outside.

The dusty yamen runner jumped off his horse with his bag on his back and rushed into the court.

"Master, the results of the provincial examination are out..."

"The results of the prefectural exam are out! Someone from our Nanli County passed! Someone passed!"

Magistrate Xu, who was about to close the case, didn't even do that.

He walked down the steps, his official robe lifted, and looked a little excited, "Quick, show me the list."

There are three types of scholar examinations: county examination, prefectural examination and academy examination.

Twice in three years.

Three years ago, Wang Zhenyan was selected as a scholar.

This is the only scholar who passed the exam in Nanli County in the past three years.

In fact, as a county magistrate, he was not good at promoting culture and education and did not do a good job in educating people.

Every time I go back to Beijing, I can't hold my head up.

When we hear that someone has been implicated, no one cares about the case anymore.

“Who got hit?”

Magistrate Xu did not care about being proud. He walked up to the bailiff and grabbed the bag behind him.

There was a small box in the bundle.

There was a piece of official document in the box.

It is stamped with the official seals of the academician and the Jingzhao Prefecture School Office.

This is a formal official letter.

After skimming past the long stream of praises and eulogies in front of him, County Magistrate Xu looked back anxiously.

"Wang Yongqing, the candidate from Nanli County, ranked 13th? Good, good, good!"

Magistrate Xu burst into laughter.

The master came over and bowed: "Congratulations, Mr. Dong, this is a great thing."

When the students in the court heard that Wang Yongqing had passed the exam, they were delighted: "Brother Yongqing passed the exam."

"That's great. From now on, when we go out to play, we can always hold our heads high when facing the students from Wangju County."

"Brother Yongqing really gave us County Mayor Nanli face."

Listening to the students' words, County Magistrate Xu smiled.

Isn’t what happened to the students the same as what happened to him?

He was also a head shorter than the magistrate of Wangju County.

Who can blame others for forgetting that there are not only juren in Ju County, but also scholars in every subject.

Wangju County is a large county with a total of ten scholar quotas, and Nanli County also has ten.

In Wangju County, every year, there was a bloody battle during the annual examination for scholars, while in Nanli County, there was no need to hold the examination because the quota was not filled.

How could County Magistrate Xu not be happy when he saw that someone had passed the provincial examination?

Magistrate Xu continued reading.

Upon seeing this, his eyes widened: "The first place in the case? He actually won the first place in the case?"

"Who is the top suspect in the case? Sir, please stop keeping us in suspense. Tell us now!" A brave student shouted in the hall.

The students in the hall all spoke up and asked Magistrate Xu to read out the name quickly.

County Magistrate Xu cleared his throat and said, "I have a candidate from Nanli County, Lu Bozhou..."

At this point, County Magistrate Xu paused and said, "The first place in the case! The first place in the case is Lu Bozhou!"

silence!

There was silence at first, and then there was noise.

"Lu Bozhou is the first in the case?"

"I've read his articles. He really deserves the title!"

Listen to the praise.

Lu Cunren kept shaking his head: "Impossible, impossible!"

In a hurry, Lu Cunren yelled: "Lu Bozhou hasn't read a book for four years, how can he win the first place in the case?"

"Wang Yongqing and Lu Bozhou study together every day. Did anyone know the exam questions?"

Upon hearing this, County Magistrate Xu, who knew the inside story of this provincial examination, looked cold.

"Paws!"

A yamen runner stepped forward and hit Lu Cunren in the face with a slapping tool.

After a few slaps, Lu Cunren's teeth fell out and blood gushed out.

Both cheeks were swollen.

Lu Cunren collapsed on the ground, still mumbling to himself: "How is it possible? How is it possible?"

At this time.

A surprised voice came from outside: "Case Master Lu is back!"
