Chang''an County Government.
A crowd gathered inside and outside the courtroom.
Above the high hall is Zhao Jun, the magistrate of the fifth grade county. On the left and right sides below, there are two county mayors who worship the seventh grade. The capital yamen is similar to the modern municipality directly under the central government, and the official rank is much higher than the ordinary county yamen.
Better county yamen, the county magistrate is generally seven grade officials, the county magistrate eight grades, and then down are the county magistrate in some small places. The nine grade sesame official is talking about them
As an informant, shopkeeper Liu entered the court with the plaintiff''s stall owner and the defendants pan Haodong and Cuizhu, and briefly told the story of the case.
Zhao Jun, sitting on the high hall, winked at shopkeeper Liu and motioned for the other party to play freely.
Don''t ask, I know they''re a group.
Collude, collude!
"Mr. Pan, you ate three bowls of cold noodles and only gave two bowls of money." Shopkeeper Liu repeated.
Cuizhu angrily said, "nonsense, we only ate two bowls of cold noodles and the third empty bowl. Obviously, you secretly put it on our table."
"What evidence do you have that I put the bowl?"
Liu Zhang said coldly, "there is no evidence, that is slander. The crime is even worse. "
Cuizhu retorted, "what evidence do you have to prove that we ate three bowls of cold noodles?"
Shopkeeper Liu said calmly, "the three empty bowls on the table are physical evidence, and I saw with my own eyes that you didn''t enjoy eating two bowls, and ordered a bowl to eat separately. You still dare to argue?"
"Yes, we saw it, too."
I don''t know when I appeared at the door of the court. Shopkeepers Zhao and Qian, who watched the trial, and their people shouted.
A young girl guarded by four burly men with a strong breath could not help wondering: "did Mr. Pan really eat three bowls of noodles?"
"Not necessarily. Let''s see."
One of the men whispered back.
At this time, shopkeeper Liu, who gained the blessing of the masses, turned to the submissive stall owner and asked, "how many bowls of cold noodles did they eat?"
"Three, three bowls."
The stall owner stammered.
At this moment, he has realized something. He seems to fall into a vortex because of greed for money. If he is careless, he will be broken to pieces.
Helpless.
The stall owner can only choose the team that currently holds the chance of winning.
And prayed in his heart, the county magistrate quickly took pan Haodong and Cuizhu away, so that he could jump out of the vortex and get the consistent money promised by shopkeeper Liu.
"Impossible."
Shopkeeper Zhao, who was just acting as an audience, suddenly walked into the court and kicked the stall owner, swearing: "Mr. Pan is the boss of Pan''s steamed stuffed bun shop. His gross profit is thousands of Wen a day. How can he owe you money?"
“……”
Seeing this scene, Zhao Jun on the court couldn''t help but draw a corner of his mouth.
The second uncle is really getting bolder and bolder. He dares to kick people under the court. If he is not here, it''s strange that the county Mayors on the left and right sides solve the case and don''t call the constable to beat him dozens of big boards.
"They just ate three bowls and gave only two."
The stall owner touched his ass and stressed with grievance on his face.
The collusion of the three shopkeepers Liu Zhaoqian is well known. No matter how stupid the stall owner is, he knows that shopkeeper Zhao kicked himself, not to help pan Haodong, but with deep meaning.
He just needs to remember the instructions of shopkeeper Liu and insist that the other party has eaten three bowls of cold noodles. He doesn''t care about anything else.
"When the emperor succeeded to the throne, he once said that we should give fairness to the people all over the world. Today, I Liu Nong''s discussion is a fairness."
"Ask who?"
"Ask Mr. Pan, why?"
Shopkeeper Liu spoke loudly and forcefully, provoked people''s emotions, put himself on the side of justice, and seemed to have a light behind him. Many unwitting melon eaters were infected by him.
As everyone knows, his sentence was like a dog, which made Cuizhu, who was already angry, burst out a murderous spirit in his eyes.
It doesn''t matter. The master doesn''t make a sound. Just play with her.
But shopkeeper Liu insulted his master, so you can''t pretend you didn''t see it.
"Why do you suddenly feel a little cold?"
Shopkeeper Liu, who was telling the crimes of Pan Haodong and Cuizhu''s master and servant, suddenly felt cold, but he didn''t care. He gushed, "why do I attack them?"
"Because they ate three bowls of noodles and gave only two bowls of money, which is called unfair!"
"Since it''s unfair for pan to take the lead, it''s to take the holy master''s golden words as farts. He not only didn''t pay attention to the stall owner, but also didn''t pay attention to the holy master..."
"What is the sin of insulting the Holy One? What is the purpose of the protest? "
"Change merit and reputation, ask for beheading, copy the family, and seriously kill the nine families."
"You say they are unfair to people. Should they kill or die?"
The people who eat melons at the gate of the court dare not speak. It''s just a bowl of cold noodles. They even talk about copying the family and killing the nine families. Do you want to go so far?
At this time, not to mention the stall owners and the melon eaters, even Zhao Jun, the county magistrate in collusion, felt that his uncle and his partners had gone too far.
The girl mixed in the crowd was almost taken away at first, but she was completely angry with shopkeeper Liu''s words.
First of all, she didn''t believe that pan Haodong would eat three bowls of cold noodles and only gave two bowls of money, because yesterday, Mr. Pan went to the palace to treat her mother''s eldest grandson and got 3000 liang of gold.
It''s impossible to owe a penny to the stall owner.
How can there be such a stingy person?
Even if there is, it can''t be Mr. Pan.
Mr. Pan is so handsome and a man of practice. How can he do such a thing?
Secondly, shopkeeper Liu has repeatedly talked about the current emperor, which clearly wants to pull the tiger skin for personal gain. He has either a grudge against Mr. Pan or an ulterior purpose.
"Cough ~ ~"
Seeing shopkeeper Liu go too far, Zhao Jun couldn''t help interrupting the magistrate sitting on the court: "shopkeeper Liu, don''t be impatient, don''t be impatient."
"Magistrate, it''s impolite for a villain to help people be fair."
Liu Zhang smiled treacherously on the counter and stepped aside.
Killing is not his purpose.
His purpose is to frighten pan Haodong. When the other party is trembling, he will have a lot of success rate if he asks for steamed stuffed bun formula.
Maybe you can also ask for three beautiful maidens around each other. It''s just that they divided them one by one.
Zhao Jun was silent for a moment, turned to pan Haodong and said, "Mr. Pan, look at your clothes and accompanying maid. It''s not like a man without money. It''s better to compensate the stall owner for hundreds of Wen. That''s it. How about it?"
"Lord Zhao, one is one and two is two. We ate two bowls. Why should we give three bowls of money and accompany people for hundreds of Wen? If we lose it, it doesn''t mean that we are empty and ate three bowls of cold noodles?"
Pan Haodong stared at Zhao Jun with a joking face. He had already moved the heart killing green bamboo. He was too lazy to act. Before, the angry and afraid servant girl disappeared, but instead of the fairy who was calm, relaxed and superior.
Her transformation has made many people of insight raise their mouths, and things are becoming more and more interesting.
"Mr. Pan, you gave two bowls of money and ate three bowls of noodles!" Shopkeeper Liu, who retreated to one side, saw Zhao Jun silent again, so he came forward to perform again and said hysterically, "no money, right? Let me help you... "
