Li Mingda did not initially plan to block the door with the people. Seeing that there were too many people at the door, Zhang Nan and Qingfeng did not agree with this, so they could only choose to walk to the side door of the government office.
The side door of the government office is actually the back door, which facilitates the entry and exit of some family members and support staff. At this time, the back door is also guarded by government officials holding horizontal knives.
Watching Li Mingda and his party walk to the side door, they felt a little nervous. Judging from the clothes of Li Mingda and others, they were not something that ordinary official families could have. According to Li Mingda's policy, the current yamen servants were recruited first. Retired soldiers were recruited from the army, and the gatekeepers were all retired from the army. They looked at the people walking beside Li Mingda who had military backgrounds.
They were keenly aware that Li Mingda was really not a simple person. Ordinary officials could not find so many young servants and guards who joined the army.
Unless he comes from a noble family.
The government officials guarding the side door looked at each other, and one of them raised his hands towards Li Mingda and others and said, "Everyone, is there something wrong?"
Li Mingda winked at Yu Xiaoqian, but Yu Xiaoqian didn't say much, he just took out his badge to the other party.
The yamen servant glanced at the words on the bronze waist badge, and then hurriedly saluted Yu Xiaoqian: "My lord, please come inside and have a rest. I will go and report to Lord Cheng Yu."
Yu Xiaoqian glanced at Li Mingda, who nodded: "Okay, wait first."
A group of people entered the government office, and the government servant who guarded the door hurriedly ran to the lobby. Cheng Yu, who was reviewing the case, looked at the government servant who hurriedly walked in from the back hall and shouted in a low voice: "How unbecoming is it to act in such a hurry in the court hall?"
The yamen servant walked towards Cheng Yu and cupped his hands in front of Cheng Yu and whispered: "Sir, there are people coming from the palace. Wait behind. The leader is an old man and a young man."
Someone from the palace? The leader of the team is the old father-in-law, leading a young master?
Now inside the palace, Cheng Yu knew very well that except for Jin Wang Li Zhi, it was impossible for the other princes to go out. Could it be that someone from Li Mingda's side was here?
There was no young master around Li Mingda. Cheng Yu's mind was a little confused for a while, and then he told the yamen servant: "Wait a moment, you go and deal with it first, I will go after I handle this case."
(⊙o⊙)…
Although he felt numb in his heart, the yamen servant still managed to hold on: "It's my lord, but lord, you'd better hurry up."
Cheng Yu nodded: "I understand, you go ahead."
After the yamen servant left, Cheng Yu focused his attention on the case. The yamen servant walked out of the lobby, looked at Li Mingda who was looking around in the yard, and took two steps forward.
"Sir, Mr. Cheng Yu is handling the case. Please wait for a moment."
According to the various movies and TV series I have watched in the past, Yu Xiaoqian should say: Be brave, do you know who this is~!
However, this was the Tang Dynasty governed by Li Mingda. Li Mingda did not speak and Yu Xiaoqian did not dare to talk too much, especially since he knew Cheng Yu's abilities. Sun Fujia was nominally in charge of the Dali Temple in the Tang Dynasty, but Cheng Yu was actually the master. Yu.
Listening to Cheng Yu handling the case, Li Mingda remembered one of the necessary parts of the private interview in Weifu, which was to inquire about the trial of the case by officials above the court.
Li Mingda waved to the yamen servant and told him to come closer. The yamen servant was a little frightened by the group of guards staring at him. He raised his head and looked at the surrounding guards and Yu Xiaoqian.
Yu Xiaoqian knew what it meant to deal with, so he reminded him directly: "If the little master lets you go, just go there. Be careful not to get too close."
Yamen: "Yes, the villain knows."
After answering, the yamen officer walked to a position about 2 meters in front of Li Mingda, then stopped and greeted Li Mingda respectfully: "I don't know what your instructions are?"
Li Mingda pointed in the direction of the court: "Can we go and listen?"
Yamen: "There is a screen and a back room behind the public platform where you can listen."
Li Mingda nodded with satisfaction: "Lead the way."
Yamen: "No"
Under the leadership of the yamen servant, Li Mingda arrived at the court hall, which was separated by a wall. The discerning yamen servant ordered people to move chairs and benches so that Li Mingda could sit and listen.
Sitting behind the screen, Li Mingda listened intently to Cheng Yu's verdict. Since he didn't know what was going on before and after, he was confused at first. Finally, Li Mingda finally understood after a period of arguments from both sides.
It turned out that a young man from Jiangsu came to sell some handicrafts. It turned out that there was a shop in Chang'an City that sold similar decorations. The merchants in Chang'an City thought that the other party had stolen the technology, and a fierce argument ensued. He made too much noise and was caught by Murong Xue.
Our little fox is so smart, it seems that the problem is not something that can be solved on the spot. In addition, both parties were so angry that they did not notice that it was Murong Xue who was wearing thick clothes and was known to dominate Chang'an with a machete. As a result, he was thrown into the house by Murong Xue. Yali.
Since the witnesses and evidence involved in the case were far away, and it was snowy in the north during the Chinese New Year and roads were blocked, the processing could only be postponed until the warmer spring.
Cheng Yu has always done things in a fair manner, and both parties agreed to do so after discussion. However, because it involved Murong Xue's government office, Cheng Yu was notified to prevent some people from deliberately setting a trap to harm Murong Xue like last time, so both parties were in jail. New Year's Eve.
As for the store, in order to prevent the two from excessive losses, under the auspices of the government office, both parties sold out their goods and left the money behind. The party who lost the lawsuit had to pay partial compensation afterwards.
Regarding the handicrafts, Li Mingda said that this kind of case can be solved by each of them having fifty pieces. There can always be a few ingenious people making and selling such things, and it is normal for them to come together by chance.
Just like what Li Mingda said, Cheng Yu announced the result in court after combining the evidence provided by both parties: There are similarities and duplications in the production of decorations. One of the two parties is in Chang'an and the other is in Suzhou, thousands of miles apart. Even if there is stealing and plagiarism, a fool will know not to go to the side of the owner and sell it.
As for why there is such a delay, Li Mingda can roughly guess it. Firstly, it is really difficult to walk due to the heavy snow blocking the road. Secondly, it is to delay the identification of both parties.
After Cheng Yu's judgment, the goods sold by both parties were returned in full according to the quantity that was initially sealed, and neither the original defendant nor the defendant had any objections.
After the case was heard, Cheng Yu announced his resignation. The people who joined in the fun applauded. Cheng Yu packed up everything and walked back. He saw Li Mingda and his party sitting on chairs with their legs crossed, waiting for him.
(⊙o⊙)…
Cheng Yu reacted and knelt down directly: "My lord, Cheng Yu pays homage to Your Majesty."
