The words were divided into two parts. After Li Qiming, the prince of the county, was taken away by Lei Li, it was quite pleasant to watch the scenery along the way.
He has always been arrogant, so he doesn't think he will be in any danger, and even with the courage of these people, he doesn't dare to do anything to him!
By the time a group of them arrived at the lobby, the rest of the powerful men had already been brought there. Li Qiming was stunned and wondered why all these buddies were here.
Wei Meng saw him as soon as he raised his head, his eyes gleaming with hatred. Even though more than two years had passed, he still dared not forget the face of his enemy.
Whenever he wakes up from a dream in the middle of the night, this person's face is in his mind. He can recognize this culprit even if he turns to ashes.
Resisting the urge to take action directly, Wei Meng forced himself to calm down. Now that Mr. Shao Yin is presiding over justice, in this court, they will get the punishment they deserve!
Li Qiming thought for a moment and thought he understood the true meaning of the matter. He stepped forward and said hello: "What? You were also invited to help handle the case?"
The rest of the people looked puzzled when they heard this, thinking that they were dealing with a ghost case, and they were brought here without knowing what was going on!
But before they could reply, the Gavel was taken, and Li Kaizhi on the stage shouted: "Can the people standing under the stage know their guilt?"
These dudes were startled by the sudden noise. Li Qiming looked around in confusion, grabbed the dude closest to him and said, "Hey, who are you talking about?"
The dude almost cried when he heard this, and said to himself: Brother, isn't this obvious?
However, Li Qiming obviously does not have this consciousness, because he still does not believe that anyone would really dare to touch him.
Until Li Kaizhi on the stage shouted: "Li Qiming, two years ago you and these people robbed a woman who came into the city, humiliated her and then dumped her body in the wilderness. Is this happening?"
Li Qiming thought for a while and replied: "I can't remember! There are so many things to say, how can I remember them all so clearly? Didn't you ask me to assist in the case? Is there anything else? If nothing happens, I will leave first. Got it!"
At this time, he finally felt something was wrong and was ready to retreat.
Li Kaizhi on the stage was extremely angry after hearing this. Listening to what he said, it was obvious that there were many women from good families who had been harmed by him over the years. How could such a murderer be allowed to go unpunished!
Mr. Li ordered the people around him: "Come on! Take down these murderers for me!"
The government officials on the left and right came up and tied them up, and all the dandies, including Li Qiming, suddenly turned into rice dumplings.
How could these dandies have ever experienced such grievances? There was a burst of wailing, and some even threatened them, but as soon as Mr. Li said a word, these dandies shut up one after another.
"Whoever makes more noise will be dragged out to play twenty boards!" As soon as Mr. Li finished speaking, his voice disappeared and instantly became audible. Facts have proved that hitting the board is quite useful!
However, this move can scare others, but not Li Qiming. In his eyes, the Young Master of Jingzhao Prefecture is nothing. Even his immediate boss is just a third-rank official, and he is the only son of Prince Ye, and his identity and status are beyond mention. What ties me up?
But now that people are under the roof, if this Shao Yin is really a ruthless character and really wants to beat himself up, who will he talk to to reason with him then?
Even though he is usually arrogant, he is very smart inside! At least that's what he thinks.
Li Kaizhi continued: "Li Qiming, you haven't answered my question just yet?"
Li Qiming's expression changed. He knew that he must not admit it at this moment. Once he did, he might not be able to get out of here, so he gritted his teeth and said: "Sir, this matter is a complete fabrication. Someone must be trying to frame me. Please Sir, you are aware of this!"
Li Kaizhi snorted coldly and said: "How brave! Everyone present heard what you just said clearly. Do you think that I am confused and can't be deceived?"
Although Li Qiming was disdainful in his heart, he still didn't show it too clearly on his face. He just said: "Your Majesty keeps saying that I am guilty, but do you know if there is any real evidence? Yamen pays attention to evidence when handling cases. Your Excellency, you must not listen to slander. If you wrongly accuse a good person, you will be innocent." You’ve lost your own reputation!”
Master Shaoyin just thought that this guy would not shed tears without seeing the coffin. He turned to look at Wei Meng who was kneeling on the ground and asked, "Wei Meng, do you know the murderer?"
Wei Meng looked away from Li Qiming and said through gritted teeth: "Sir, this is the person!"
He stretched out his hand and pointed at Li Qiming, then moved his finger horizontally to draw a semicircle, which just included the other dudes, and then said: "These people are all accomplices!"
The other dandies were all shocked when they saw this. They usually bullied the common people, but when they came to the court, their hearts were already agitated. Now when they saw Wei Meng's identification, they were even more evasive and did not dare to face him directly.
Li Qiming sneered and said: "Where did you come from, how dare you trap me! Who instigated you?"
Li Kaizhi on the stage was stunned and shouted: "Bold! This is a court, not your prince's palace. Why, do you still want to threaten the suffering master?"
Li Qiming flicked his sleeves and said calmly: "I still said what I said before, saying that I harmed people, is there any evidence? His words are not credible. Can you find other witnesses? If not, it is a false accusation! I also We will hold you accountable!"
What he said was so convincing that if he hadn't known the inside story beforehand, he would have really thought that he was wrongly accused!
He is truly worthy of being the prince of the county. At first, I thought he was a brainless dude, but now it seems that he has learned a lot of skills from his father.
Unfortunately, this skill is used in the wrong place!
Since Mr. Shaoyin dared to send people to arrest him, he would not do it without targeting him. Naturally, he already had enough evidence.
Aren't you arrogant? Don't you want evidence? Okay, then I’ll give it to you!
Master Shaoyin glanced at Lei Li who was standing aside, and the latter walked away with understanding, and soon came back with someone.
Everyone present turned their heads and saw that this man was less than five feet tall. From a distance, they thought he was a child, but in fact his sideburns were already gray, so he must be quite old.
He was wearing a soapy green coarse cloth shirt, with a white apron tied around his waist, with a little flour or something on it.
As soon as he arrived at the lobby, he knelt down on the ground, kowtowed repeatedly, and called "Master Qingtian". In fact, a common man like him couldn't tell the difference between the officials in the capital, let alone the official ranks, and just regarded them as all officials. All officials are great masters.
Li Kaizhi smiled and didn't care too much. He asked: "Who is in the room? Please tell me quickly!"
The short man quickly replied: "Sir, my name is Wu Dalang. He is a local. He makes a living by selling cooking cakes."
Li Kaizhi continued to ask: "Do you still remember what happened two years ago when the prince Li Qiming killed people and dumped their bodies?"
Wu Dalang replied: "I remember, little man!"
Li Kaizhi said with satisfaction: "Oh! Tell me in detail."
Wu Dalang accepted the offer, and then told how he saw the crown prince Li Qiming and his party forcibly abducting a beautiful young woman, and how he ordered his men to kill and dump the body.
Wei Meng's eyes were splitting as he listened. He clenched his fists and dug his nails deeply into his flesh. Blood was flowing out but he didn't know it. He just stared at Li Qiming and others with his blood-red eyes.
Shaoyin Li Kaizhi also narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Li Qiming and said, "What else do you have to say now?"
Li Qiming looked at the short man in front of him and said calmly: "What a joke! How could you remember so clearly what happened two years ago? Also, why are you, a commoner, staring at me when you have nothing to do? I won’t pay you, so why don’t you work and drink from the northwest wind? This is unreasonable!”
Unexpectedly, Wu Dalang curled his lips when he heard this and said: "My memory is very good! Not to mention such big things, even how many cakes I sold one day and how much money I earned, they are all clearly recorded in my mind. Yes! It’s perfect!”
Dalang paused for a moment when he said this, glanced up at Li Qiming, and then continued: "I usually sell cooking cakes on the streets, no matter where I sell them. I just keep an eye on you and it won't affect my business." ."
"As for the reason, it's not that you are notorious for harassing others and even coaxing and deceiving them when you see their beautiful little daughter-in-law. It's really not robbery. I suspect that you and my daughter-in-law are having an affair!"
At this moment, it was Li Qiming's turn to be depressed. He thought to himself, "Who is your wife? I don't even know her. Why is this hat put on my head for no reason? It's really unfair!"
He was pretending before, but now he really feels wronged!
Li Qiming said angrily: "Where did you come from? You are talking nonsense here. I have never seen your wife at all!"
Wu Dalang became anxious now and said: "It was the fruit seller Ah Hui who said that you are very lecherous and that even beautiful girls cannot escape your clutches. When I thought about it, my wife is eight feet tall and has a protruding front and back." Upturned, with big arms and round waist, very strong!"
"I didn't believe it at first, but that day my wife came to help, and you happened to be passing by, and you kept staring at my wife. You definitely had bad intentions. After a while, she wasn't as considerate to me as before. , so there is definitely something wrong with you two!"
After hearing this, Li Qiming almost spat out a mouthful of old blood and said in his heart: I have a crush on your sister! Maybe I happened to see an eight-foot-tall female man standing next to a short winter melon that was less than five feet tall. I thought it was funny, so I took a few more glances. Who would have thought that this unreasonable disaster would happen!
Just by hearing the description of this big guy, you know that he is not my cup of tea, right? What I like is Ying Ying Yi Zhi. Do you know what Ying Ying Yi Zhi is? Even if I were blind, I wouldn't fall in love with your wife!
Besides, you won’t die even if you look at him for a few times. He’s such a petty bastard!
At this time, Li Qiming was irrefutable, but he still felt a little lucky: Even if there was a witness, after so many years, the woman would probably have only a pile of bones, so there would be no physical evidence, right?
Unexpectedly, Li Kaizhi smiled slightly on the stage. This smile made him feel a little scared, and a bad premonition slowly rose from the bottom of his heart.
Then, I heard a burst of noise coming from outside. It turned out that the outside was surrounded by people who came to redress their grievances. At a rough look, there were nearly a hundred people, and most of them were redressing the grievances of the female family members. One can imagine what Li Qiming has become over the years. How many bad things have been done.
In the past, because the identity of Prince Ye was displayed there, most people could only admit defeat. It was really a bit prickly, but they could not squeeze the thigh of Prince Ye, so some calls were suppressed.
But things are different now. Judging from Lord Shaoyin's attitude, he is determined to deal with this prince Li Qiming. So of course everyone will avenge those who have grievances and avenge those who have grievances!
Looking at the angry people outside, Li Qiming couldn't help but turn pale. These civilians who could only accept it in the past actually dared to threaten to punish him. This scene made him shocked and frightened!
It was difficult to find physical evidence before, so is it still difficult to find physical evidence now? As long as one piece of physical evidence is found, he can be convicted!
Just a few days ago, a rich boy was killed because he was jealous of Li Qiming in a brothel. His family is outside now.
Many people saw this incident, and then the rich boy died suddenly. It was obvious who was behind the scenes.
Seeing that the matter was irrefutable, Li Qiming simply held out his chest and said loudly: "Yes, I did it all! But, what can you do to me? What do you dare to do to me?"
"Okay! Just admit it if you dare!" Master Shaoyin said angrily and laughed.
"Why don't I dare? Let me tell you, you have no right to investigate me! If you don't want to lose the black yarn on your head, I advise you to be wise and send me back as soon as possible, otherwise, humph..." Li Qi Ming sneered and said arrogantly.
"Then let's see if I dare!" Mr. Shaoyin narrowed his eyes and said, "Here comes someone! Put these murderers into prison for me and wait for them to be punished!"
Li Qiming saw that a mere Shaoyin from Jingzhao Prefecture actually dared to attack him. He pointed at Li Kaizhi and others and shouted: "Let me go! Let me go quickly! My father is the King of Ye County! Dare you touch me?" You, and all of you, are just waiting for bad luck!”
Although he shouted loudly, it was of no use. He and his gang of friends were all taken away by the government officials.
Lord Shaoyin announced that justice will be given to all victims!
After hearing this, the people kowtowed repeatedly and thanked him profusely before leaving. The murderers were all in jail, and Wu Dalang, who came to testify, also left.
Although the remaining Wei Meng was involved in a murder case, he had extenuating circumstances after all, so he was allowed to return to Lin Yan's residence for the time being. In addition, several government officials were sent to monitor and protect him.
When Wei Meng returned to Lin Yan's residence, several people had been waiting anxiously for a long time. After he briefly explained the situation to everyone, Lin Yan and others breathed a sigh of relief.
I thought the matter would be difficult to handle, but I didn't expect Master Shaoyin to be very capable!
Since things are moving in a good direction, it must be celebrated. Lin Yan went out to do some shopping, cooked some home-cooked dishes for everyone, and also invited the government officials to join him.
After eating and drinking, Li Zongsheng and the other three went home, but the government officials stayed behind to keep watch in shifts to ensure Wei Meng's safety.
…
On the other side, what happened in the lobby today has long been known to Prince Ye and others. The rest of the people came to the Prince's Mansion anxiously and asked the Prince to make a decision.
King Yejun only said one sentence: "With the owner of the suffering gone, the matter will be solved!"
It was night, and five men in black quietly shuttled through the shadows of Chang'an City, approaching the small courtyard in the southwest corner, where Lin Yan and others lived.
Even though the Lord County King said that before, it was impossible for him to kill all the victims involved. The bloody tragedy of a hundred people will only push this matter to the forefront, which will be counterproductive.
Therefore, it is enough to kill only one person, that is Wei Meng! As long as this trouble is gone, the matter will be solved! The remaining people alone can't make any trouble. After all, they retreated and endured before, so what's the harm in retreating and enduring again?
The main target of the man in black is Wei Meng, but if there are other blind guys, then they will be killed together. After all, we have to be satisfied with the ghosts who are rushing to reincarnate, right?
In the blink of an eye, five men in black had bypassed the government officials at the door, climbed over the wall, spread out, and headed into the house with sharp knives in hand.
The assassination begins!
