"Sue a lawsuit against Junji Academy? Deduct wages? Beat people to death?"
Buzz!
When Song Zhili heard this, he felt like something exploded in his mind.
Everyone was stunned.
People sue the academy?
How dare this old woman?
But Song Zhili subconsciously thought of Lin Yi's case in Lindong County, and the commander of Longweidu, Yan Shuangwu, was also present...
The drum sounded.
It doesn't matter if he doesn't accept it.
Song Zhili didn't speak immediately, looking at the thin old woman and the little girl with pigtails and dirty face.
Suddenly, his body trembled slightly and his expression became slightly dazed...
This situation.
Deep inside, it was as if something was awakening.
that year.
That day.
He was in the eighth rank of destiny and once made a great wish: "If you enter the Holy Academy, you should study and practice, stabilize the country, and resist evil sects outside the border. If you enter the court and serve as an official, you should benefit the people..."
But decades have passed.
I have long forgotten the ambition I had that year. I only know that what I was thinking in my heart is... I won't be able to become a sub-sage in the future anyway, so I might as well save more money to leave to my children and grandchildren.
turn out to be.
As he walked, he had already forgotten his original intention.
I just think that the official power is still there, but I don’t see the true young man who benefited the people back then!
At this moment.
The commander of Longweidu stared at Song Zhili.
Lin Yi looked at him.
Li Wenbo also looked at him.
"grown ups!!!"
"The women of the people are wronged!"
The old woman's heart was as sharp as a knife when she saw Song Zhili's expression changing, but she didn't take any action.
boom!
Kowtow again.
The old woman's body softened and she immediately fell down. Her blood was like a blooming flower, staining the floor tiles red.
'I'm crazy! '
Seeing that Song Zhili was still weighing the situation, Lin Yi cursed in his heart and his eyes almost popped out of his head.
"asshole!"
He cursed angrily, wishing to kick Song Zhili away, rushed directly to the old woman, and said to Li Wenbo: "Do you have any life-saving pills on you? Hurry!"
"Yes, yes!"
Only then did Li Wenbo react. He quickly took out the porcelain bottle from his arms, poured out a pill, and handed it to Lin Yi.
Lin Yi quickly gave it to the old woman.
Tear!
He tore up his Confucian shirt, tore out a piece of cloth, and bandaged the old woman to stop the bleeding.
"Auntie!"
"Auntie!"
The hearts of those craftsmen were bleeding, and they were anxious on the sidelines, but they did not dare to step forward.
But deep down in his heart, he couldn't help but burst into tears at the scene where Lin Yi, a scholar, scolded Song Zhili and bandaged the old woman himself.
Someone... complained for them!
"grandmother!"
"Wake up!"
The little girl knelt down next to the old woman and gently shook the old woman's body, her little face full of fear.
She knelt in front of Lin Yi and said with red eyes from crying: "Brother, please do a good job and save grandma. Niuniu has no parents. She can't live without grandma anymore..."
"Woo!"
"elder brother……"
Lin Yi knelt down, wiped away the little girl's tears, and said with red eyes: "Your grandma will be fine, brother, I promise you..."
Said.
Lin Yi turned to look at Song Zhili and said in a deep voice: "Master Song, the students don't understand!"
"Why do you, as the prefect, turn a blind eye to this woman who has grievances and beats the drum?"
"Students dare to ask, what are your intentions!"
"I……"
Song Zhili's face turned red. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the gloomy look on Commander Yan Shuangwu's face. He immediately said, "What can I have in mind? I naturally know the grievances of this civilian woman, but don't I need to think about the authenticity?" ?”
"Don't you need to check whether what this woman said is true?"
"It's reasonable to waste time!"
Song Zhili looked at Lin Yi and said, "Because you care about the people, I don't care about your insult just now!"
"Come here, bring this civilian woman to the government hall, and I will personally review the case!"
He waved his hand.
At the same time, he turned towards Yan Shuangwu, the commander of Longweidu, and said with cupped hands: "Sir Yan, I will try this case carefully and give this woman justice..."
"No need!"
Yan Shuangwu said indifferently.
"ah?"
Song Zhili was stunned for a moment and looked at Master Yan blankly, a little confused.
Yan Shuangwu took out a dragon-shaped jade pendant from his waist, placed it in front of Song Zhili, and said seriously: "From now on, Lin Yi will take over this case!"
Lin Yi, who was holding the girl's hand, was stunned for a moment.
Him again?
But for no reason, Lin Yi felt extremely hot inside.
The grievances of the old woman.
Undoubtedly, it was the wage incident of the civilian craftsmen he encountered when he first entered Junji Academy.
Just right.
He reviewed it together!
"Sir Yan, I sincerely serve the people. The ambition I made back then was to benefit the people..."
On the side, Song Zhili turned pale with fright and quickly asked for mercy.
"I have not dismissed you from office, nor am I qualified to do so, but I am qualified to temporarily suspend you from office!"
Yan Shuangwu then turned to look at Lin Yi and said seriously: "Lin Yi, I have ordered you to resolve this case, do you dare to accept the order?"
"Students dare!"
Lin Yi clasped his fists and said seriously.
"Okay! All the officers of the prefect's Yamen will be at your disposal for the time being. Those who don't obey... will be punished according to the laws of resistance and disobedience!"
Yan Shuangwu turned around and entered the main hall of the Yamen.
The officers looked at each other one by one and fell silent...
Song Zhili collapsed on the ground.
he……
Is he really planning to change his ways and seriously review this case? Is it wrong to hesitate?
"Master, what should we do now?"
Li Wenbo was very excited.
For Lin Yi, being able to handle this matter has a very special meaning for him to fulfill his ambition.
These will be Lin Yicheng's capital.
People are doing it.
God is watching!
But too many scholars, after setting up their great ambitions, think that there is no hope of becoming a saint, and they forget their original intentions completely.
Lin Yi held the little girl with his left hand and patted Li Wenbo's shoulder with his right hand.
Then he looked at the group of men and said, "You should still remember me!"
Dozens of men looked at each other, hesitantly.
But thinking of Lin Yi holding the little girl's hand, he even personally rescued his aunt just now.
A man said: "Remember, we met you once at the gate of Junji Academy!"
"Remember!"
"Although we haven't read any books, our memories are not bad. Remember me, sir!"
"..."
Everyone spoke one after another.
"good!"
Lin Yi nodded, looked directly at these men, and said seriously: "I know that you repaired the halls and built the courtyard for Junji Academy, but you didn't get any wages..."
"Today, the old lady is beating the drum, not only to avenge his dead son, but also to avenge you..."
"Tell me, do you have the courage to stand up and testify against Junji Academy, who stole your hard-earned money?"
"As long as you dare to stand up, I will seek justice for you!"
Lin Yi stared at these craftsmen with blazing eyes.
"have!"
"Master Zhong from Junji Academy said that if we dare to cause trouble, he will kill us, but now I am not afraid of death, I will risk my life!"
"It was Master Zhong's men who injured Brother Niu!"
"Master Zhong said that if we sue the officials, the prefect will not help us."
"You also said... we played with the academy, did we have a good time?"
A few brave men looked like they were risking their lives.
at the same time.
The old woman also woke up and turned around, and Li Wenbo stepped forward to help her up. The latter had also heard Lin Yi's words in a daze just now, and struggled to kneel down to Lin Yi, but was held back by Li Wenbo.
The old woman burst into tears and kept murmuring: "The sky opens its eyes, the sky opens its eyes!"
Then the remaining dozens of craftsmen all knelt down towards Lin Yi and said, "Please make the decision for us, and for Brother Niu who was beaten to death by the academy bachelor!"
"Hurry up and follow me into the Yamen hall. It happens that the dean of Junji Academy and Master Zhong are both there. Then take this opportunity to find out more about this matter!"
Lin Yi held the little girl's hand and said in his heart: "Can delayed justice still be considered justice? The death of this little girl's father... what can be done to make up for it?"
Lin Yi took the little girl and resolutely entered the Yamen.
Justice is late, but justice...must be repaid!
