At the banquet, the county magistrates also heard about the case of Rending Sijuan. They were going to make a conclusion the next day, and they were concerned about the will of the people. Things will become difficult to handle. Now the whole country is trying to figure it out. If they admit it, the imperial court will become more daring and will be more ruthless next time. Several county magistrates are going to bite their teeth and refuse to admit it, so that the imperial court can understand everyone's difficulties. Fang Zhixian on the side heard what everyone said, and could only echo along.
After drinking for three rounds, everyone bid farewell to Mr. Fan and went back to their respective homes. Mao Zhixian also stayed to discuss things with Fang Zhixian. The matter was handled within the line, but now he was cut off by Huang Zhifu, and now it has become a joint trial of three. Fang Zhixian sneered after listening and said that there are many ways in it. He thinks that other magistrates have not informed him all his life. They hide everything they do, but now they blame themselves. He also asked magistrate Mao about the burning of the Jiage library, but the other party continued to deal with him perfunctorily.
Soon the next day came, and Huang Zhifu was sitting east. He was sitting in the high hall and was preparing to interrogate Shuai Jiamo and Feng Baoyu. kidnapped and coerced. Huang Zhifu was very curious when he heard that this was different from what was written in the document, but Cheng Renqing once again appeared in the court, and under his eloquence, he managed to overwhelm Feng Baoyu. .
Feng Baoyu told everyone that he was kidnapped by Lu Feilong, but the testimony he provided was inconsistent, and the people around him began to discuss. Cheng Renqing agreed, and asked him to tell the lie next time. Lu Feilong passed it on, and he also told everything he had prepared. Cheng Renqing provided another witness, the old official. They threatened the other party's family members so that the old official had to lie, and lied that he had met Feng Baoyu and the others. As he said, he also stood up to clarify for himself, and he also told everyone that Lao Li was lying, and he did not have a dispute with Feng Baoyu.
Shuai Jiamo continued to say that it was impossible for the other party to tell about the Yulin Atlas when he was arguing with Feng Baoyu just now, because his job was to check the accounts and taxes, and the Yulin Atlas recorded the land situation, which was different from all others. The investigation was not in the same category at all, so it was impossible for him to say such a thing. Afterwards, the old official was discovered by Huang Zhifu that what he said was a lie, and he was going to ask him to hand over the real culprit behind the scenes. Cheng Renqing was flustered when he heard this, and he was ready to continue to quibble, but Huang Zhifu ordered him to step down, and directly The old official was forcibly taken down and beaten severely.
Next, Shuai Jiamo and Feng Baoyu were also acquitted. Feng Baoyu also directly told Huang Zhifu that the person who kidnapped them was also Lu Feilong. When it came to the case of Rending Sijuan, Shuai Jiamo told the other party directly that he had found out the real situation. Mao Zhixian couldn't sit still when he heard this, so he quickly got up and prepared to continue to stop the investigation, but he was still caught by the angry Huang. The prefect ordered to retreat.
Shuai Jiamo told Huang Zhifu that although the Jiage warehouse was burned and there was nowhere to find everything, but he thought of another way, he had to find out the tax and labor white books of the two counties of Renhua and Lanxi, just when they were going to get up to do business At the same time, the two adults of Ma also rushed to the scene in time, ready to participate in the case together, and the prefect Huang also informed everyone that they were going to continue the trial in the afternoon.
After Fang Zhixian returned, he was criticized by Mao Zhixian, and he was going to continue tearing his face to benefit the people of Renhua County. While eating, Shuai Jiamo ran into his father's old friend, who brought delicious food. Looking at the things in front of him, Shuai Jiamo recalled the childhood memories with his father.
