The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 860
At this moment, Wang Xin is writing a statement of the situation, writing out all the causes and processes of this case.

With the development to the present stage, the news will definitely spread to the capital, and Wang Xin, as an imperial envoy, will naturally take the initiative to report it.

"Just now, Mr. Zhao was sent to look for Mr. Ding, but Mr. Ding led him to the old man's house!"

"My lord, it seems that this case is about to come to a conclusion!"

When Wang Xin was writing, someone reported the situation in front of him. This person was his deputy on this trip, and he was also a second-class Jinshi in this scientific examination.

"In the current situation, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Mr. Ge to make a decision!" Wang Xin sighed.

Hearing this, the deputy envoy was a little surprised and asked: "Ge Lao is under the emperor's order, and has the right to kill first and then play, don't you dare to make a decision?"

"The involvement this time is too extensive, completely different from the previous investigation!" Wang Xin said in a deep voice.

"This……"

In fact, when the two of them were discussing, Xie Xiaofang was already losing his temper.

"As officials of the imperial court, you are supposed to enforce the law impartially. If a small case is evasive and bickering, so much so that it comes to the county town, I will make a fuss for you!"

Under Xie Xiaofang's angry reprimand, Ding Yan, the governor, stayed out of the matter completely, but Zhao Yaoyin was scolded and bowed his head.

He does have difficulties, but this is not the time to complain, because the reason is not important at all.

Sitting back on the chair, Xie Xiaofang picked up the teacup and drank a couple of sips before suppressing his anger a little.

"That county magistrate of Xuanning, directly dismissed his officials, and the magistrate is the same, after the case is concluded, we will deal with it together!" Xie Xiaofang said coldly.

"Yes!" Zhao Yaoyin replied.

In other words, I wanted to blame Hu Yuanjun and Yang Zhifu, but I still didn't get rid of the tragic fate, because Xie Xiaofang charged them with "passing the buck".

In fact, if Zhao Yaoyin's rank was not high enough, he would not be able to escape the fate of being dismissed from office.

Forget about the two officials, Xie Xiaofang's anger subsided a lot, which made him think about how to solve the current problem.

When this case came to the government office, it came into his sight, but the people below were too quick to give him time to react.

"The matter has come to this point, there is only one way, and that is to handle it impartially... I will let you judge the case!"

Staring straight at Zhao Yaoyin, Xie Xiaofang said coldly: "Sentence as you want, do you understand?"

In other words, Zhao Yaoyin's idea of ​​throwing the blame failed, and the matter returned to him.

Xie Xiaofang dealt with Hu Yuanjun and Hu Yuanjun first, and at this moment, he also had the intention of killing chickens and monkeys. If Zhao Yaoyin didn't follow suit, he might become a prisoner immediately.

"I understand!" Zhao Yaoyin replied helplessly.

Glancing at Zhao Yaoyin, Xie Xiaofang continued: "You don't have to be afraid, the Lord's holy candle is shining, as long as you do your best, you will be safe and sound!"

These words were both comforting and threatening, making Zhao Yaoyin feel like he was on fire.

"You can go back, remember to tell the world that the trial will start tomorrow!" Xie Xiaofang stood up and said.

"Farewell to the humble post!"

After Zhao Yaoyin left, Xie Xiaofang's gaze turned to Ding Yan, the emperor's confidant stationed in Jiangxi.

"Master Ding, this case was judged fairly, if something goes wrong, you can't just sit idly by!"

"Smoothly pass this level, I will play the emperor at the meeting, and I will ask for credit for you!"

The last sentence is interpreted in reverse, and it is a warning to Ding Yan not to sit idly by, otherwise even if he is the emperor's confidant, he will give him a copy.

"Elder Ge, don't worry, but you have orders... I will definitely cooperate with you!" Ding Yan said with a smile.

This guy is also a non-stick pan, he will never take the initiative to do something, but let Xie Xiaofang direct it.

If he did something wrong, it was because of Xie Xiaofang's misdirection, and it had nothing to do with Ding Yan.

It can also be seen from this point that Ding Yan's personality is not enough, he didn't know that this is the time to fight for merit.

"Those gentry clans in the city are joining forces with each other to petition. At this time, you should appease them..."

"Treat them with emotion and reason, so that they don't get confused for a moment and make a big mistake!"

These errands ordered by Xie Xiaofang are undoubtedly very difficult for Ding Yan, but he has to do it.

"Humble staff will do their best!"

.........

Several large mansions at the other end have already gathered a group of people and are discussing going to the Governor's Yamen to petition.

Among them, the Zhou family had the largest number of people, because the old man of the Zhou family was the Minister of the Ministry of Officials in the Tai'an Dynasty, and he was the most respected in Jing'an Prefecture.

Of course, the old man of the Zhou family was just a big banner. He was unable to discuss matters in his 80s, so he just missed a face and returned to the inner house.

The one who greets the guests now is his eldest son Zhou Yixian, who was awarded a Jinshi 20 years ago, and Ding You, whose mother died five years ago, is in mourning, so he has not re-entered the officialdom until now.

"Everyone, when things have come to this point, we must not shrink back..."

"A rascal can seize the land with just a few words of nonsense. There must be no such reason in the world!"

"In any case, the truth is on our side, so we have to speak out and let the incompetent officials judge the case fairly!"

What Zhou Yixian said caused everyone in the room to nod their heads, obviously they all agreed with this statement.

Still the same sentence, they can hold their noses to accept the various reforms plus taxation, but they will not let it go when the matter is fundamental.

Point the finger at a punk's guts, they not only have it but they're big.

In fact, the imperial court is currently imposing heavy taxes. If they are really brave, they should delay this matter.

It's a pity that everyone doesn't have the guts to pay taxes one by one, because the crime of resisting taxes is too serious.

"My lord, according to the news from the procuratorate, it is said that the trial will be opened tomorrow!"

Hearing this, the spirits in the lobby suddenly had their thoughts turned.

According to the Procuratorate, he wanted to blame Governor Ding Yan, but now he announced that the case will be judged tomorrow, which means that the blame has not been thrown out.

It can be further inferred that it must have been pressured by Ding Yan and Xie Xiaofang, then the result of tomorrow's trial will be ready.

But this result is unacceptable to them, so the situation for the gentry is already extremely unfavorable.

"Everyone, we should go to the feudal secretary to petition now, we can't delay any longer!" Zhou Yixian said solemnly.

"Going right now!"

"Go now, let's go!"

Everyone got up one by one, and they all felt the urgency.

Zhou Yixian said again: "Go to other houses to call people, the more people go, the better!"

After a brief discussion, the people gathered at Zhou's family left one after another, and within half an hour they gathered outside the feudal office again.

Jing'an Mansion is the seat of Jiangxi County, and there are absolutely no shortage of big families here, so hundreds of people have gathered outside the gate of the feudal secretary.

This was the first batch to arrive, and the big households were still sending people outside the Jing'an mansion to find more people to put pressure on Zhao Yaoyin.

"The gangster is helpless, treacherous villain, the government should behead him, as a warning to others!"

"There is no need to try the case at all. Such a person is a disaster for the country and the people. Only by cutting it off can the hearts of the gentry be reassured!"

"That's right... directly cut down that lowly ruffian!"

Outside the gate of the inspector's office, the gentry shouted loudly, and the sound wave was higher and higher.

If there were no guards in front to stop them, these people would have poured into the yamen.

And these guards at the front are also suffering at the moment, being insulted and beaten is light, and they are afraid of retaliation from these dignitaries.

The gentry united as one and set off a huge wave, so that Zhao Yaoyin had to go to the governor's yamen again to ask Xie Xiaofang for instructions on how to deal with it.
