"Lord Su, this matter was already investigated three months ago, and everyone pleaded guilty at that time. It is considered an iron case, so don't worry too much, but this time, you can come to the small town to let Xiao Zhenpengpishenghui Several big households in the town have said that they want to invite you to dinner. Even the seat has been reserved, and it is in the best Chunyuan Building in our town. Do you think you appreciate this face?"

Big family please eat?Su Cheng snorted coldly in his heart, you people don't pay attention to yourself, the so-called head catcher and county lieutenant.

Knowing that he came to investigate this case, he didn't panic at all.

I don't know what tricks were used by Zhao Daniu to make him confess his guilt, but now he wants to invite himself to dinner, which is to give himself a blow, and then he wants to use these means to persuade himself to quit.

But it's a pity, Su Cheng would rather be straight than crooked, the more they don't want Su Chengcha, the more they want to find out about this matter.

What's more, this is the first task given to me by the system, if I can't complete it, I don't know what punishment is waiting for me.

"You don't need to eat. I have important things to do. I'm going back now. Zhao Daniu, please take good care of me. I will send someone to escort him to the county government office tomorrow. Since this matter is already an iron case Well, there is nothing to say. Liu Butou handles the case well, and I will remember to speak well for you in front of the county magistrate."

Liu Fang didn't seem to care that Su Cheng rejected his invitation, and after thanking him softly, she politely sent Su Cheng out.

Su Cheng walked out of the gate of the Yamen in Xinglong Town, and felt that his trip was a mess, a bunch of soft nails.

A county lieutenant and chief catcher in charge of the administration of officials is completely useless in such a small Xinglong town yamen.

It's just a blatant insult and slap in the face!
After Su Cheng left, he didn't immediately go back to the county government office as he told Liu Fang, but instead went to find Yan Chixia.

Because he wanted to ask Yan Chixia to do something tonight, and it was estimated that only he could do it quietly.

But before that, he also had to go somewhere.

In the early morning of the next day, a major event ushered in the yamen of Xinglong Town.

Su Cheng, the county lieutenant and chief arrester of Jinhua County who just took office, came to Xinglong Town to start a trial.

What case was being tried? It was a major case that caused a sensation in Xinglong Town three months ago.Villagers Zhao Tiezhu and Zhao Daniu forcibly seized Gao Yuanwai's property and intended to murder Gao Yuanwai's iron case.

Gao Yuanwai, who was both a party and a victim, was soon brought to court.

This was also the first time that Su Cheng met this legendary high official. At the same time, he also met several great gentry in Xinglong Town.

Dressed in gorgeous brocade, the high-ranking foreign minister has a kind face and kind eyes, and his name is straightforward and resounding, high and virtuous, and virtuous.

Su Cheng sneered and glanced at the person standing under the courtroom.

"My official is the acting county magistrate of Jinhua County, why doesn't anyone kneel at the next stop?"

As a modern person, Su Cheng actually doesn't like the ancient etiquette of kneeling and kneeling at all, but at the moment he is sitting on the main seat, and what is going to be tried and overturned is an unjust case. It is natural to treat those heinous villains You can't be so polite.

"This……"

Gao Yuanwai standing under the hall obviously did not expect that Su Cheng would start with this sentence. As a well-known squire and rich man in Xinglong Town, he has always had a good relationship with the government.Just like Liu Fang, the head catcher in Xinglong Town, they all called each other brothers and sisters when they met, and when the county magistrate of Jinhua met in the past, at most, they just bowed their hands to pay tribute. When did they kneel down?
Su Fang on the side saw that the situation was not good, coughed softly a few times, lowered her head and spoke to Su Cheng.

"I'm afraid Mr. Su doesn't know something, Gao Yuanwai is a well-known benevolent person in our local area, and his reputation is extremely high. I don't think there is any need to kneel."

Su Heng ignored Liu Fang's words and raised his hand to take a gavel.

"Gao Youde, you are just an ordinary local employee, and you have no fame. If you see that I don't kneel, you will be punished immediately. I will punish you for your first offence. I will give you another chance. Do you kneel or not?"

Liu Fang didn't expect that Su Cheng didn't give her face at all, her face was livid, but due to Su Cheng's status, she couldn't say anything, and looked at the senior officials in the hall and quietly reached out her hand to signal.

Although Gao Yuanwai was not happy, he looked at the torture rod in the hands of the Jinhua County yamen guard beside him, gritted his teeth and knelt down.

"The villain is tall and virtuous, see the county lieutenant"

Looking at the people surrounding the hall, Su Cheng smiled.

Regarding today's matter, he originally planned to start a retrial. Before the hearing, he sent someone to inform the people of Xinglong Town, asking everyone to come to the Yamen for a hearing.

"Gao Youde, you came to report the case three months ago, saying that Zhao Tiezhu, a villager from Xiaxi Village, forcibly occupied your land and intended to murder you. Is this true?"

"My lord, the villain is a villager in Xiaxi Village. Three months ago, Zhao Tiezhu and his son from the same village occupied the farmland at the entrance of my village. During the dispute with the two, the villain became murderous. Fortunately, the nursing home at home rescued the villain before picking him up. took a life."

Gao Youde slumped to the ground and told the crowd almost in tears. People who didn't know thought that the old man lying on the ground was just a poor victim.

But in fact, Su Cheng really understood the truth of this matter last night. After knowing the truth, he understood what it means to know people, know the face but not the heart, and what it is to be a wolf in sheep's clothing.

People's hearts can never be measured by appearances, and they are virtuous by looking at their kindness and kindness.It's a waste of the name, what he did has nothing to do with the word "Germany".

"Wai Gao, what you said seems to be very different from what I know?"

Su Cheng spoke slowly, according to his temperament, he really wanted to kill the person in front of him and finish the matter, but the so-called grievance and trial of the case originally required the truth to be made public, so that he could be regarded as worthy of death.

"My lord, what the villain said is the truth. I can be regarded as a respectable person in Xinglong Town. How dare I lie and deceive others. If the lord insists on framing the villain, the villain will never be humiliated. People are always upright, even if they want to sue the state government, the capital, or before the emperor, the villain will always say the same."

Gao Youde was so emotional that his kneeling movements became slumped on the ground, as if he was deeply persecuted.

Seeing this situation, the gentry on the side couldn't sit still anymore, they got up and walked down the hall one after another.

"You little boy, don't think that you can bully us old guys like this when you become a county captain today. You kid was not born when we spent blood and money for Xinglong Town..."

The one who spoke was the leader of the squires in Xinglong Town, and the only person here who had a reputation, so he was the only one who dared to curse at Su Cheng in front of everyone.

Liu Fang watched his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose, as if he couldn't see the man's rudeness to Su Cheng.

On the contrary, Su Cheng looked calm and didn't take that person's words to heart at all.
