"Woooo..."
The woman was devastated, but her eyes regained brilliance.
Stay alive!
yes!
She must still be alive!
She wanted to see that beast brought to justice with her own eyes, otherwise her husband and children would die in peace.
The woman looked up at Lin Yi, her eyes full of gratitude.
"This kid..."
Zhang Dong glanced at Lin Yi and admired him a little.
But what happened to the woman also made Zhang Dong furious. Such a tragic thing happened in Lindong County under his jurisdiction.
It is still done by scholars.
This matter will never let go. No matter which academy is involved, we must get to the bottom of it!
Zhang Dong looked at the woman and said sternly: "Zhang Xiaoyan, a civilian woman, I am aware of your grievances. Once the investigation proves the truth, I promise you that I will definitely arrest that beast and bring him to justice, and I will never let him go unpunished!"
"If a scholar commits a crime, he will be punished with an additional penalty!"
Zhang Xiaoyan choked with sobs and said, "Thank you, my lord!"
Zhang Dong nodded slightly, turned to County Lieutenant Li Si, and said in a deep voice: "County Lieutenant Li, take Zhang Xiaoyan into the county government office and protect her strictly. If she is injured in the slightest, I will take care of you!"
"yes!"
Li Si's body trembled and he quickly clasped his fists to accept the order.
"Zhao Zhongcheng!"
Zhang Dong looked at Zhao Zhongcheng and said sternly: "You will be responsible for investigating this case. Ask carefully about the characteristics of the person who committed the crime. You will dispatch the agents of the Demon Suppressing Hall!"
Speaking of which.
Zhang Dong narrowed his eyes and said in a cold voice: "What is the difference between a scholar and a demon who commits such things that are outrageous to both humans and gods!"
"Kill, kill, kill!"
Murderous intent surged through his body, and everyone outside the yamen could clearly feel it.
Lin Yi saw Zhang Dong's attitude and knew that the Yamen would do its best to investigate Zhang Xiaoyan's case.
At first, he was worried that Zhang Dong, as the county magistrate, would protect scholars.
So from the beginning, he directly said that the county magistrate would make the decision for her.
Now it seems that Zhang Dong is still a qualified parent officer.
Worthy of the black gauze hat on his head.
"Bachelor Lin, leave Zhang Xiaoyan to me!"
Zhao Zhongcheng walked up to Lin Yi, with sympathy for the woman in his eyes and more admiration for Lin Yi.
"kindness!"
Lin Yi handed Zhang Xiaoyan to Zhao Zhongcheng and said, "Let her rest first, and then we will ask about the scholar's appearance and characteristics in detail. Afterwards... please give me a dossier!"
Zhao Zhongcheng nodded and said: "Okay!"
Zhang Xiaoyan was taken away by Zhao Zhongcheng, and county lieutenant Li Si and the agents of Zhenmotang protected her tightly.
But at this time.
Zhang Xiaoyan stopped, and Zhao Zhongcheng, Li Si and others also stopped in confusion.
next moment.
Zhang Xiaoyan suddenly turned around and knelt down towards Lin Yi.
She didn't speak, just choked and kowtowed.
Lin Yi turned around slightly.
I don’t want to accept this great gift.
"A woman is weak by nature, but she is strong as a mother, and strong as a wife!"
"When I traveled across time, I was also framed by the scholar Zhu Liren, and now it's the scholar who breaks into the house and kills people. In the entire Dayan... how many scholars are there doing whatever they want based on their status?"
Lin Yi's heart trembled when he thought of this.
Holy Court!
No matter?
Known as the spokesperson of liberal arts in the world and a holy place for scholars in the world, can even a scum like this be bestowed with literary fame?
at this moment.
Lin also remembered how ridiculous it was when the Holy Court asked him when he was taking over Haoran Zhengqi.
"Ha~"
Lin Yi sneered inwardly.
His hands under his sleeves were clasped tightly, and for the first time... he felt ashamed of being a scholar!
Why did Wen Dao grant them extraordinary power and long lifespan, but did not consider the ordinary people who supported them?
But in the end, he turned the butcher's knife on them?
After Zhao Zhongcheng and others took Zhang Xiaoyan into the county government office.
The county magistrate Zhang Dong, who saw all this in his eyes, looked at Lin Yi and said, "Lin Yi, I have something to tell you!"
"kindness!"
Lin Yi nodded.
"Go to the office."
Zhang Dong led Lin Yi into the county government office, and the government officials holding water and fire sticks also retreated one after another.
At the same time, let the onlookers disperse.
Among the people watching, there were two young men with elegant temperament who left with livid faces.
…
In the side hall of the Yamen main hall.
Zhang Dong poured a cup of tea for Lin Yi and asked, "Where is Bachelor Lin from?"
"Anyang County!"
Lin Yi didn't know what Zhang Dong wanted to ask, but he still answered truthfully.
"Anyang? Is that the Anyang County that produced the academy genius Zhu Liren?"
Zhang Dong was stunned for a moment, then said coldly: "It's a pity that Zhu Liren did something other than human affairs. He stole Taoism, but framed it and blamed it on ordinary people. Now there may be grass growing on the grave!"
"..."
Lin Yi didn't expect that Zhang Dong would still play tricks, and he didn't hide it, saying: "Actually, I am the ordinary person who was framed!"
"you?"
Zhang Dong looked Lin Yi up and down and said, "You are a scholar, not an ordinary person!"
Lin also had no explanation.
He only said this if Lin Yi had been framed by his classmates before.
Zhang Dong took a sip of tea, feeling a little melancholy and said, "Scholar Lin, at first I thought you were just an ordinary ninth-grade scholar."
"But in today's case of Zhang Xiaoyan, I found that you are different from other scholars."
"Wenbo... is not as good as you."
"To be honest, I admire you more than Wenbo's poetic talent!"
"Back then, I was just like you. I had witnessed too many injustices in the world. Scholars were jealous of each other, and classmates killed each other. I also saw scholars bullying the common people, and I also saw the families behind the scholars, who were like each other!"
Zhang Dong stood up and said as he walked: "So after I failed in the official examination, I decided to join the court. I want to be an official and an official for the people!"
"I want those who are bullied to have a strong backer..."
"I have been doing this in the past few years since I took office in Lindong County, but the strange thing is that I have not encountered any problems with scholars!"
"Later I found out that scholars take care of their own affairs, and if they receive a few scoldings from their masters without any pain, everything will be fine!"
"I have also encountered several cases where scholars bullied the common people, but the common people did not dare to sue the scholars. Some people even thought...if they had not done anything wrong, how could the scholars bully them? Hahaha!"
When Zhang Dong said this, he let out bursts of sad laughter, shook his head and said: "It is difficult to be an official. I have ambitions but no place to show my skills. Therefore, I want to be promoted to the state capital, the capital, or the capital... …become an official wherever you dare to sue scholars.”
"I didn't expect that today, I finally encountered a case where someone dared to sue a scholar. As long as the investigation is true, my guillotine will definitely chop off that beast's head!"
When Zhang Dong said these words, it was as if the power accumulated in his body was released. He suddenly turned back to look at Lin Yi and said: "Lin Yi, from now on... you should also be an official!"
"You are suitable to be an official. The common people need scholars like you to make decisions for them. Now I share your official power with you. How about you and Zhao Zhongcheng fully investigate the case?"
Lin Yi was stunned for a moment and then fell silent.
Is this to get him to join the court as an official?
