Rise From the Humble

"Please, sir, please arrest this murderer."

People were still listening to the case, watching the county magistrate assigning officers, pointing at the parties, exchanging their gossip and thoughts, when such a voice suddenly sounded, unusually clear, and The field is abrupt.

It was like a thunder on the ground.

It directly shocked people immersed in gossip!

Could you please arrest this murderer? ! this? ! What do you mean, the murderer is at the scene?

It was just two parties involved who just finished talking about the case, and there was no discrepancy between what they said about the case, and no one said who the murderer was. How could the murderer come out now? Still on site? !

Who are you?

You are so brave enough to talk nonsense in front of the county magistrate and the Tong magistrate!

Who are you?

You say someone is a murderer, but he is a murderer? ! Why is your face so big, why don't you take a pee and look in the mirror to see who you are? !

What stupid fool is this? !

The shocked people turned their heads and looked at the person who made the sound, wanting to see who was so short-sighted.

then

Turn around

People saw this idiot who was speaking out.

As the sun rose in the east, the young man crossed over the crowd and stood to the west of the magistrate, facing the east. The sparkling sunlight shone on him, as if circles of golden and silver haloes were blooming on him, and there was something about him. Dazzling and eye-catching.

This is a young man with a simple and honest face! At this moment, he was pointing at Wang Gui, the boatman, who had just finished speaking. It's just that no matter whether it's from his face or from his body, there is no aura at all.

It's okay if you say it's the divine judgment like that of Bao Qingtian and Di Renjie. You, a seemingly naive young man, want to imitate other people's divine judgment. Are you kidding me? How could you possibly learn from someone else's words? It's simply impossible to identify the murderer.

The scene, which had been quiet for two seconds because of the boy's abrupt words, suddenly became noisy, even if there were officials around, it would have no effect.

"Heh, this stupid boy must have drunk too much! I also want to see what the occasion is, and I will go up, and see how you get down!"

"Who are you? You must be sick. If you say that the boatman is a murderer, he is a murderer! You can eat food but you can't talk nonsense."

"Hey, let me see. This silly boy must have fallen in love with Mr. Zhang's widow. Tsk tsk, look at how coquettish she is. She is crying and twisting her waist. She is really wanton. Maybe Mr. Zhang was harmed by her."

"That makes sense. I think that Zhao Erlang is very suspicious. Maybe they are two adulterers who got together. They thought Mr. Zhang was hindering their love and happiness, so they colluded to kill Mr. Zhang while he was out. .”

"No, look at it. Just now when the county magistrate asked her who the acquaintance she met in the morning was, she still hesitated. She clearly had a guilty conscience and wanted to protect her concubine."

People glanced at Zhu Ping'an, then at the county magistrate standing aside, shaking their heads, they didn't believe Zhu Ping'an's words at all.

did not expect!

Totally unexpected!

Do not believe!

I don't believe it at all!

The parties concerned had just recounted what they knew, and there was no discrepancy between the two men's accounts. Moreover, they did not mention at all how Mr. Zhang was murdered or by whom! Are you now identifying the boatman as the murderer? Isn't this too hasty? !

You said, how does this make people believe Zhu Ping'an's words.

"Hey, this young man has read too much and is a little unconscious, right? How can he take the imperial examination like this?" An old man in the crowd who lived in the same cabin as Zhu Pingan recognized Zhu Pingan and looked at him. Zhu Pingan shook his head vigorously and sighed with disappointment.

The old man thought the same as everyone else. After being surprised by Zhu Pingan's highly pointed sentence, he sneered.

Everyone was the same, even the young woman Zhang Wang who reported the crime was no exception. She was even more surprised when she heard this. She raised her head and glanced at the boatman Wang Gui next to her, and then turned her eyes to Zhu Ping'an full of suspicion and disbelief. .

The most obvious one is Wang Gui, the boatman who was accused by Zhu Pingan as the murderer. In the sight of everyone, the boatman Wang Gui seemed to be angry. He trembled all over, then glared at Zhu Ping'an with wide eyes, as if he was Dou E who had been wronged and wronged.

The magistrate of Chun'an had just ordered his officers to "invite" Zhao Erlang. Now he suddenly heard Zhu Pingan's assertion. His humble, aloof and solemn face was obviously stunned, and he looked up at Zhu Pingan.

"Well, everyone, please retreat quickly. If it delays your Majesty's conclusion of the case, don't blame the guy in our hands for not having eyesight."

At this time, the officer in charge of the noisy scene also reacted. Two officers walked quickly towards Zhu Pingan with their swords in their waists, looking like uncles and looking unkind to the visitor.

Without saying a word, the two of them decided to drive Zhu Ping'an out. He completely regarded Zhu Pingan as a good deed! In the process of following the successive county magistrates to resolve cases, they encountered countless troublemakers like this who were just looking for trouble.

The two of them stretched out their hands to drive Zhu Pingan back, while feeling lucky for Zhu Pingan. If our new county magistrate hadn't been an upright official and treated the people badly, we wouldn't have been able to drive him away, and we would have had to give him a slap in the face. .

The magistrate of Chun'an only glanced here, then turned his head again and focused his attention on the young woman Zhang Wang and the boatman Wang Gui again.

In the eyes of the magistrate of Chun'an, he subconsciously classified Zhu Ping'an as one of the good guys. Seeing that the servant's behavior was not out of the ordinary, he stopped paying attention. The trial of the case is still important, and it is enough for these troublemakers to persuade them to leave, as long as the police officers do not make it difficult for them.

Well

After brewing for a long time, no one was interested in it!

Glancing at everyone's reactions, Zhu Ping'an shook his head slightly and raised the corners of his lips. Then when the official reached out to drive him back, he calmly reached into his arms and took out a portion similar to the one just now. The same thing that Mr. Tongzhi took out was spread out in front of the two officers' faces.

Official ultimatum.

Bright red seal, guaranteed to be genuine. Moreover, no one dares to fake this thing in this era. This is a capital crime of beheading, and might even be implicated.

The two officers thought that Zhu Pingan was going to pay for something. They didn't care at all and wanted to push him. However, when they saw a huge official document suddenly appearing in front of them, a cold sweat broke out on their foreheads! Then his legs and feet softened, and he knelt on the ground with a clang.

Damn it

What kind of day is this? How come I just met an official, and now I meet another official. They are all older than my master! The one just now was Lord Tongzhi of the fifth rank. Although this one has a lower official rank, he is a sixth-rank imperial official of the Hanlin Academy.

"Young man, I have met you, sir, please forgive me."

The two officers who drove Zhu Pingan away hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to Zhu Pingan.
