"The magistrate of Sanyuan County went to the county government to file a complaint again? What on earth does he want to do? Do you really think that a county magistrate can help him solve the case?"
"Is that damn Fatty Hong crazy? He doesn't even catch a thief on weekdays, but now he dares to even take care of such a thing?"
"It's really strange. What on earth did this Chang'an man come to Guangzhou for? Could it be that he suffered a loss, is unconvinced, and wants to regain his position? That's not right either. He should go to Feng An, but he shouldn't go to Hong. Fatty is a loser!"
Just when Xiao Han was "complaining" to the county government, the silent mansions in Guangzhou City also received the news immediately.
However, these people were basically all Zhang Er monks who were completely confused about Xiao Han's actions. Only a few scheming old thieves were vaguely aware of a hint of uneasiness in it.
Coincidentally, the head of the Chen family in Lingnan, who once had an "indissoluble bond" with Xiao Han, was one of these old thieves.
After thinking for a while, the head of the Chen family, who still didn't know that his subordinates had "enemies" with Xiao Han, decided to send someone to the Feng family to find out the news.
"Master, the Feng family has locked the door, and the young one shouted through the crack in the door. They just said that their master is ill and cannot see guests!"
The Chen family was not far from the Feng family. The people who were sent to inquire about the news quickly came back, but the news they brought back made the head of the Chen family even more uneasy.
"I'm sick! With Feng An's body like a bear, how can he still get sick?! No! No! There must be something going on here! That old immortal Feng An must be hiding something from us!"
After listening to the report from his subordinates, the head of the Chen family walked around the room several times with a gloomy face. After muttering a few words to himself, he suddenly stopped and called the person who reported the news to his ear, whispering to him. He gave some instructions.
At this moment, there were several people in Guangzhou who made the same move as the head of the Chen family. However, those who still have the mentality of watching the excitement want more!
As the political, economic and even cultural center of the entire Lingnan.
Guangzhou's status in Lingnan is like Chang'an's status to the Tang Dynasty!
Therefore, almost all the powerful families in Lingnan gathered on this land.
No matter where these families originate, or what their people do for a living, as long as the family grows to a certain level, it will inevitably move from the local area to Guangzhou!
Even if you really don’t want to settle down in Guangzhou, you will definitely keep your eyes and ears here and have a confidant here who has the right to speak! There is no exception to this.
Because they all understand: at this time, what really determines the fate of the family is often not the enemy, nor the business, nor the clan members!
The person who really determines the direction of destiny is the official, the emperor, and Feng An!
A letter is sent to the Nine Heavens in the morning, and is demoted to Chaoyang Road eight thousand in the evening!
This is true for the feudal officials, not to mention that their families, which are not considered to have been in the family for a long time, may not keep up with one step or fail in a decision, which will push the family into a bottomless abyss.
Therefore, once a family achieves success, it is inevitable that it will move closer to the political center.
————————
Early in the morning, the huge city of Guangzhou became turbulent because of a lawsuit! Magistrate Hong County, who was at the center of the storm, was already devastated.
Just now, he was just resting half of his butt on the chair, with a smile on his face.
Now he's fine, he slumped down on the chair, and his fat face has turned pale!
"Go on, say what you said yesterday again." Looking at Scarface and others being brought to the court, Liu Hongji chuckled, folded his arms and said to several people.
"Ah? What else are you talking about?" The scarred face may have been up all night last night, and his ugly face was even more haggard now!
However, before he could mutter a few more words, he caught a glimpse of Liu Hongji's half-smiling look from the corner of his eye. Immediately, he stopped complaining and quickly explained how people like himself were hired. And how to make the provocation clear and clear in court.
"Huh? An official actually hired someone to kill someone on the street!"
"I'm telling you, no one is good as an official! This little brother seems to have a powerful family. If he were an ordinary person, wouldn't he die early?"
"Humph, ordinary people? Ordinary people still use hired killers who are officials to kill people? Do you know that an official can make your life worse than death by just using his words?"
Outside the main hall, the onlookers who had been intentionally let in suddenly felt as if they were in a state of panic after hearing what Scarface said. They were gesticulating towards the lobby while exchanging their opinions with the people around them. In an instant, We, who were supposed to be solemn and solemn, suddenly turned into a duck pen, a chaotic mess.
"Quiet! Quiet!"
The pale-faced Fatty Hong patted the gavel mechanically, suppressing all the noise.
At this point, he knew that he had fallen into a conspiracy. If he stretched his neck, it would be a knife, and if he shrank his neck, it would be a knife! In this case, he was willing to go all out. At least dying standing would be more honorable than dying on his knees.
"Xiu Niang, I'm afraid I'm sorry for you! There are also Miss Wan, Sister Ting, Miss Liu, and Sun Erniang... If I have to escape from the disaster this time, I will divorce the tigress in the family and marry you guys openly and honestly. indivual!!!"
Swallowing deeply, Fatty Hong trembled his lips and asked the gangsters: "You guys! Are you sure an official hired you? Do you know that according to the law of the Tang Dynasty, the people sue the officials, regardless of winning or losing? Twenty heavy responsibilities! If it is a false accusation, the punishment will be twice as high as sitting in reverse!"
"Sit on the back twice? What do you mean? Sit on the cold quilt backwards? Whose cold quilt should I sit on?"
It was probably the first time that Scarface heard about the crime of anti-sitting. He didn't understand it for a while, so he subconsciously looked up at Magistrate Hong and asked.
"Idiot! Twice the crime of sitting back is what the person you are suing should be sentenced to, so you will be sentenced to twice the crime!"
Before Magistrate Hong could open his mouth to explain, behind him, his boss, Hun Jianglong, was leaning on a person, weakly speaking to Scarface.
After recovering last night, he now has some strength, but due to excessive blood loss, he still looks weak when he speaks.
"Oh, then what's the crime for an official to commit murder?" Scarface turned around and asked subconsciously.
Hun Jianglong rolled his eyes and squeezed out a few words through his teeth: "Death penalty! Beheading!"
"Uh...twice means dying twice? Kill two heads, right?" Scarface suddenly realized, but soon he understood that he seemed to have only one life and one head, so what if it's not enough to chop off? ? Are you still interested?
