The Song Dynasty attached great importance to the law, and it was precisely because Ji Ran knew this that he dared to blatantly make trouble.

Once something happens, the adults of the criminal department will definitely open the trial, so as not to give up the truth.

As soon as Ji Ran finished speaking, the yamen servant at the door ran in to report.

However, because Ji Ran didn't have a pleading paper, ordinary courts would not accept it.

It's just that Ji Ran didn't take this to heart, it's just a pleading paper, he can write a thousand or eight hundred words at will.The yamen servant took the pleading paper that Ji Ran handed him, the ink on it was still wet, could he be fooled a little more?

Although I complained in my heart, I still had to hand in the master's pleadings.

Not long after, there was news of the public trial, which means that the common people can also attend.

Ji Ran knew that the lord of the Ministry of Punishment must be confident enough, otherwise the people would not let the people watch, but his purpose was not to bring down the lord of the Ministry of Punishment.

With the mighty voice, Ji Ran was brought in by the summoner.

It stands to reason that Ji Ran has no fame, so he needs to kneel down.

But the person he told was the head of the Ministry of Punishment, so he could avoid kneeling.

Li Shaoqing was standing in the crowd, but now he only had a handful of melon seeds, otherwise it would be even more exciting.

"Are you accusing me of bad marriage, helping the tyrant, and wronging Wang Dakui?" Mr. Li of the Ministry of Punishment said with a dark face.It was the first time he became a defendant after taking over the Ministry of Criminal Justice for so long.

Ji Ran said confidently: "That's right, Wang Dakui and the girl from the Xu family have already been together, but her parents want to have one daughter and two marriages, and you, as an official of the imperial court, imprisoned Wang Dakui without knowing it, isn't it just helping the evildoers!" '

Master Li turned pale, "What you said is true?"

"It's true!" Ji Ran said loudly.

The common people immediately discussed, if this is the case, Wang Dakui was really wronged, even if he beat someone, he would not be imprisoned in the Ministry of Punishment.

"Go, bring the three members of the Xu family to the hall!" Master Li ordered.

Seeing that the common people had started talking, he suddenly regretted his public promotion.

Not long after, the Xu family girl and her parents came.

"See you, my lord!" The three immediately knelt down.

Xu's parents looked timid, after all, this is a court, and Xu's girl's face was white, looking very painful.

If that Wang Dakui was really the one who injured Miss Xu's fiancé, Miss Xu's family would wish Wang Dakui to die sooner.

The master at the side told Ji Ran what he had told, Master Li slapped the gavel, "You guys are serious, do you plan to have one daughter marry two husbands?"

The Xu family girl's parents were terrified, and they quickly denied it, "No, no, then Wang Dakui served as a soldier outside, I can't let my daughter wait for him forever, so I betrothed my daughter to another family."

"Fart, Wang Dakui came back a long time ago, and the day of your engagement is just on the way back for Wang Dakui!" Ji Ran scolded angrily.

"Mighty!" Following Ji Ran's curse, the yamen servants on both sides reminded him.

Master Li continued to look at the parents of the girl from the Xu family, "What he said is the truth."

"My lord, we were wronged. The official in Liu Xiucai's family came to ask for marriage. How dare we not agree!" When did the mother of the girl from the Xu family see such a battle, she became more and more guilty, and she simply refused to accept it. recruited out.

"I think it's because you are greedy for vanity." Ji Ran spoke from the side. Although the voice was not loud, these people in the court could still hear it.

As Ji Ran said, it is precisely because of the greed of the Xu family's parents that they want to marry the Xu family's daughter with one daughter

"Let me ask you again, have you ever received Wang Dakui's dowry before?" Master Li asked again. Although this case is not big, it may stain his official career.

The girl's father from the Xu family said, "We've already spent that little money."

In other words, they had received Wang Dakui's dowry.

If so, Miss Xu's family is already Wang Dakui's.

In the end, they wanted to go back on their word and marry their daughter to Liu Xiucai's family. It's no wonder Wang Dakui was not angry.

Not to mention that Wang Dakui is a soldier, even a student can pick up a pen and poke people.

"Damn girl, you should say something!" Seeing that the girl from the Xu family has been silent, her mother quit. The girl from the Xu family glanced at her mother, then took a deep breath, "My lord, the little girl has something to say." explain. "" Let's talk about it. "Master Li also wants to hear what Miss Xu's family has to say.

"The little girl and Wang Dakui have known each other since childhood. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are childhood sweethearts. When the little girl reached the age to discuss marriage, Wang Dakui brought all the money to my house to propose marriage. Although there was no matchmaker, the parents agreed. down.

However, before we got married, Wang Dakui went to the battlefield for the reason of conscription, which lasted for two years.

Until some time ago, a matchmaker came to the family and said that she was proposing marriage for Liu Xiucai.

My parents said that Wang Dakui might have died on the battlefield, and they didn't think he could come back, so they made this marriage for me.

However, I did not agree, but took the letter written by Wang Dakui to my parents and told them that Wang Dakui would be back soon.

However, the parents have already made a decision and accepted the bride price.

Although the little girl is not a lady of every family, she can also read and write. I have thought about it. If Wang Dakui comes back, I will elope with him. If he really dies on the battlefield, I will bump him to death on the day of marriage. I did my best.

Hearing this, everyone was touched.

Even the parents of the girl from the Xu family didn't expect that the daughter thought so.

Ji Ran secretly thought, this girl from the Xu family can really act, now she has taken her parents out, and she can also save Wang Dakui.

But they don't know that women are inherently strong, and they won't change if they admit to death.

"Do you have anything else to say?" Master Li looked at the parents of the girl from the Xu family.

They have collapsed to the ground, lost the ability to think.

"Bring Liu Xiucai here!" Lord Li ordered again.

This time, unexpectedly, the yamen servant went out to find someone, and a frail scholar who was supported by a servant came in.

"Liu Bowen, a young student, will meet Mr. Li!" Liu Xiucai saluted.

Mr. Li still has a good impression of the scholars, "You heard what the class said just now."

"I heard it." Liu Xiucai replied. When Miss Xu was brought, he was standing at the door, and he heard every word inside.

"Marriage also has a first-come-first-served basis. Regarding Wang Dakui's beating, I will punish him. As for the betrothal gift you sent to the Xu family, I will order the Xu family to return it in full and dissolve your marriage contract. Are you convinced?" "Lord Li Said

Liu Xiucai glanced at the girl from the Xu family, "I'm convinced! When I saw the temple, I thought I could have a happy marriage, but I didn't want Luohua to be ruthless. If I knew that Miss Xu already had a sweetheart, I would never go to the matchmaker. Hired."

"Mr. Liu, it's a little girl who doesn't have this blessing." Miss Xu's family didn't hate Liu Xiucai, because the other party was also kept in the dark.

Liu Xiucai smiled bitterly, "Xiaosheng pleaded with the Lord about one thing, don't punish Wang Dakui, it was originally a misunderstanding, maybe if Xiaosheng encountered such a thing, he would also break in."

Master Li nodded in satisfaction, "Okay, you can be exempted from punishment, but you can't escape from punishment. Let him bear all your medical expenses."

Miss Xu bowed to Master Li again, "Thank you, Master Li, and Mr. Liu."

Master Li looked at the parents of the girl from the Xu family again, "You are parents, but you only value money and want to marry one daughter twice, but there is a reason for this, and it is true that Wang Dakui did not return two years after the engagement. Liu Xiucai's dowry must be returned immediately, and then Wang Dakui's dowry must not be accepted, and the daughter must be married as soon as possible, is there any problem?"

"No problem, no problem!" As soon as they heard that there was no need to be boarded, the parents of the girl from the Xu family immediately agreed.

The Xu family girl breathed a sigh of relief. She testified in court, always feeling sorry for her parents.

However, for Wang Dakui, she could only do this.

She has already thought about it, if Mr. Li wants to play the board, she will take the responsibility as a child instead of her parents.

The case came to an end, Master Li looked at Ji Ran who was standing in the courtroom and yawned, "You are still satisfied."

"Your Excellency is fair and honest, I am very satisfied." Ji Ran is telling the truth, the officials of Song Dynasty are still very good.

Master Li slapped the gavel and announced his withdrawal.

Not long after, Wang Dakui was released.

The servants of Yang's mansion hurried over to care, but the girl from the Xu family was even faster than him.

Wang Dakui did not expect that he beat a scholar and was released so soon.

Hearing Xu's girl's explanation, Wang Dakui knelt down in front of Ji Ran, "Benefactor, please accept Wang Dakui's worship!"

Ji Ran hurriedly helped Wang Dakui up, "It's just a matter of little effort."

"It may be a piece of cake for you, but for me, it is equivalent to the grace of rebuilding." Although Wang Dakui is a rough man, he understands the truth. Without Ji Ran's help, he would have embraced a beautiful woman, let alone return. I'm afraid that half of his life will be confessed to the Ministry of punishment.

The girl from the Xu family stood beside Wang Dakui, and also bowed down, "Thank you, young master."

Ji Ran scratched his head, he couldn't stand others thanking and worshiping again and again.

The parents of the girl from the Xu family watched from the sidelines, and it seemed that they had really done a good job of beating mandarin ducks.

"Let's go, go back and return the betrothal gift from Liu Xiucai." The girl's father said.

The mother of the girl from the Xu family stepped on her foot, "But we have already spent some."

Because they thought that the girl would marry into a rich family, they didn't control spending money. Of course, the things they bought were all for the girl to act as a front.

When Wang Dakui heard this, he quickly said to the parents of the girl from the Xu family, "Uncle and aunt, I still have some money when I return from serving as a soldier. Take it first and return it to Liu Xiucai."

"This!" The parents of the girl from the Xu family were very embarrassed.

The young man of the Yang Mansion couldn't help but said, "Just keep it, this time Wang Dakui came back with military merits, and he will be able to receive the royal salary in the future!"

Hearing this, the parents of the girl from the Xu family immediately turned pale.
