"Um?"
Fang Ping looked at the visitor and asked in surprise: "Master Gao, why are you here?"
The person who came was Gao Ming, courtesy name Yongnian, the chief executive in charge of public security and government affairs in the Gyeonggi region, including Luojing.
A senior official of the third rank.
Others also looked at Gao Ming, who was walking quickly, with curiosity on their faces, completely confused as to why this official of Luo Jing's parents came to the scene of the interrogation of the three divisions.
Although Hu Yan wanted to settle the case quickly to avoid long nights and dreams, but now a third-grade official came over for no reason. It is estimated that these big guys want to talk for a while. Naturally, he, a small fifth-grade official, did not dare to say anything, so he could only Wait until the big guys finish talking.
Otherwise, it would appear that he is too ignorant.
However, Gao Ming hurried past all the assistant judges and walked directly to the main judge's desk. After being polite to the three main judges, he looked at Fang Ping and said straight to the point:
"Master Fang, just now several people from Yongchuan County, Jingyang Prefecture, Jingxiang Province came to Shuntian Prefecture to cry out for injustice. They claimed that Xia Yan, the magistrate of Yongchuan County who was arrested before, was a good official and begged me to help them clean up their crimes. Clear Xia Yan's injustice and clear his name so that he can return to Yongchuan as soon as possible and continue to be their Qingtian Grand Master."
Having said this, he paused for a moment, took a breath, and then continued:
"Although those common people have little knowledge and are in the wrong place, I cannot turn a blind eye to them and stand by and watch. Moreover, I remember that Xia Yan is the prisoner who was personally told by His Majesty to start the retrial of the three divisions. Those Yongchuan The common people may be related to this case, so I took it upon myself to bring them here. Mr. Fang, you are one of the chief officials of the three divisions. Do you think you should let them in, ask them, and understand the situation? See if it will help the trial of this case?"
Hearing this, Fang Ping's eyes suddenly opened.
"should!"
Before the other two chief judges could say anything, he responded excitedly: "That's right! Mr. Gao, you came at the perfect time! Where are they now? Please send someone to bring them in quickly. !”
Gao Ming couldn't help but be slightly startled when he saw that his old friend, who had always been mature and prudent, actually had such a side.
However, he did not agree immediately, but looked at the other two presiding judges.
However, Qian Yiqian and Zhao Bingliang were not as excited as Fang Ping, but frowned again.
Yongchuan people?
How could these ignorant Guizhou people who don't know Chinese characters come all the way to the capital?
You must know that Yongchuan is thousands of miles away from Luojing. Even if the official road along the way is blessed by spiritual formations, it is not easy to go there and back. What's more, you have to pay high tolls to take the official road, and you have to prepare a lot of travel expenses for the long journey. Moreover, the world is not peaceful now, and you may be robbed by bandits on the road. A bad outcome is that you will lose both your money and your life.
Therefore, ordinary people will not travel far if it is not extremely urgent.
And these Yongchuan people were actually willing to pay so much and take such great risks to come to Luojing to avenge Xia Yan?
How can this be?
Xia Yan is just a small county magistrate, and he is not their father. How could ordinary people like them do this for him?
Do they really regard Xia Yan as their parents?
Zhao Bingliang thought for a moment and asked directly: "Master Gao, are those people really Yongchuan people? Are there any credentials to prove their identities?"
When he tried it himself, his first reaction was disbelief.
Although Qian Yiqian did not question it, he did not stop Zhao Bingliang from asking.
Hearing Zhao Bingliang say this, Gao Ming suddenly had a look of surprise on his face.
"What? Could it be that I will bring some unrelated people here to disrupt the court? Or, Mr. Zhao, do you suspect that I have evil intentions and intend to obstruct the trial of the three divisions?"
There was no trace of dissatisfaction in his words.
After all, Zhao Bingliang's words were simply questioning his ability to do things. How could he endure this?
It is true that the Minister of Dali Temple is a third-rank official, but he is also a senior official of the third rank. Even in the official rank, he is not afraid of Zhao Bingliang, so there is no need to give him face.
Zhao Bingliang quickly realized that he had said the wrong thing, so he hurriedly said: "Master Gao, don't get me wrong, I'm not questioning you, I just want to confirm..."
Before he could finish speaking, Gao Ming snorted coldly.
"I can guarantee that these common people must be from Yongchuan. If not, I will ask to be dismissed from office, so as not to delay His Majesty's ambition to rejuvenate the Xia Dynasty due to my incompetence."
At this time, Fang Ping's eyes also turned cold.
"Master Zhao, don't you want the people of Yongchuan to come in and get to the bottom of this case as soon as possible?"
"That's absolutely not the case!"
Zhao Bingliang quickly denied it.
Just kidding, this is a three-division trial, and any matters related to the case cannot be ignored, otherwise it will be dereliction of duty!
If he deliberately prevented the persons involved in the case from attending court, it would be obstructing audio and video, a crime he could not bear.
Now that Gao Ming personally guaranteed it, he naturally did not dare to say more and agreed directly.
Qian Yiqian didn't say much.
These senior officials were communicating on the main interrogation stage, but the people below could not hear clearly what they were saying. They could only see that Gao Ming's face was not very good, and he seemed to be angry.
After a while, Gao Ming called for a yamen servant.
"Go and bring them in."
them?
This time everyone heard it clearly, but they still looked confused and couldn't figure out who to bring over.
The yamen officer nodded heavily, cupped his hands and said:
"Yes, Lord Fu Yin!"
After agreeing, he turned around and walked quickly outside.
Not long after, he came in with seven or eight people wearing linen clothes, with fair faces and extremely rough exposed skin.
These are obviously ordinary people who have been living a life with their faces facing the loess and their backs facing the sky. They look extremely different and conspicuous in front of a group of well-dressed officials.
Seeing the officials from Shuntian Mansion coming in with a group of people, the doubts on everyone's faces suddenly became more intense.
What are you doing bringing people here at this time?
However, they did not wonder for long, and soon knew the reason for Shuntian Fuyin's sudden arrival.
But when Xia Yan saw those people, his eyes suddenly widened, and his face was full of surprise, as if he had seen something unbelievable.
He stood up suddenly, and then asked loudly to the people who were walking quickly: "Li Da, Zhao Erhu, Chen Gou'er... why are you here?!"
Those people were Li Da and others who came all the way to Luojing to rescue Xia Yan!
As soon as Xia Yan finished speaking, everyone was shocked.
what's the situation? Does Xia Yan know these people?
When they heard someone calling their name, Li Da and others looked over subconsciously. After seeing Xia Yan's appearance clearly, their faces suddenly showed ecstasy.
"Master Xia!"
They shouted with great excitement, and at the same time their pace suddenly accelerated, almost running towards Xia Yan wildly.
"Great, Master Xia, you are okay!"
"I've finally caught up!"
Seeing this scene, everyone reacted immediately.
"These people...are they...people of Yongchuan County?!"
"Why did the people of Yongchuan appear in Luojing?"
"Are they here specifically for Xia Yan?"
"No way? How can Xia Yan be so virtuous... No, according to Mr. Fang's judgment, Xia Yan is neither seeking fame nor profit, and all his gains from greed are used for management... If these people really treat him like this If you love him, then what is he trying to do by accepting bribes? Is that..."
"hiss!"
When they thought of a certain possibility, everyone immediately took a breath of cold air.
Hu Yan's face suddenly became extremely ugly.
He has always been good at calculations. He had vaguely realized something from the conversation between Fang Ping and Xia Yan before, but now he had completely confirmed that guess——
The reason why Xia Yan was boycotted by the wealthy families and wealthy businessmen in Yongchuan was not because he had a huge appetite and looked too ugly, which aroused the dissatisfaction of all the wealthy families and wealthy businessmen, but because his butt was aimed at those untouchables!
Hu Yan is obviously not the only one who realizes this.
Lu Chen also had a rough guess about the causes and consequences of Xia Yan's case from the ecstatic expressions of the people in Yongchuan.
But his reaction was completely opposite to Hu Yan!
Seeing the scene of the Yongchuan people kneeling down in front of Xia Yan with respect and love, Lu Chen's mind became completely active.
'I guarantee this Xia Yan! Satan can't take him away, I say! ! '
"My lords!"
While Lu Chen was thinking, Li Da suddenly turned around, bowed his head to the three judicial officers sitting on the presiding bench, and then kowtowed heavily several times before shouting loudly:
"Master Xia is a great official. We cannot live without Master Xia in Yongchuan County! Please don't listen to the slanderous words of those evil people who are greedy for wealth. Master Xia is definitely not the dog official they say. It’s our Lord Qingtian of Yongchuan County!”
As soon as he opened his mouth, the others quickly knelt down on the ground, kowtowed and bravely shouted:
"I hope all of you will investigate clearly!"
