"Don't talk too much." Liu Qian reprimanded Guo Yonghuai and ordered: "Hit him ten times."

"Yes."

Several government officials held Guo Yonghuai down and beat him.

Guo Yonghuai was beaten until he screamed repeatedly.

"Master Liu, if you don't beat this unruly man in court, you beat me. It's so unfair!"

"Master Liu, what does this unruly citizen have to do with you? You can't bend the law for personal gain or wrongfully accuse an official of the imperial court..."

Guo Yonghuai and his son were howling, which gave Liu Qian a headache.

"I wonder what your surname is and where you come from?" Liu Qian simply asked Xiao Ding to reveal his identity so that he could square up with him and intimidate Guo Yonghuai.

However, Xiao Ding was not in a hurry.

"What about the unknown person? Can't the common people supervise the officials to resolve the case?"

Xiao Ding's tone was majestic and he was born a nobleman, which naturally gave Liu Qian a strong sense of oppression.

Liu Qian was even more respectful: "Yes, yes, you can stand and watch me interrogate the case, or sit down?"

Xiao Ding said: "I'll stand."

"Okay, the defendant has not pleaded guilty, and the plaintiff has insufficient evidence. Please allow me and Master to think about how to solve this case before trying it again."

Xiao Ding nodded and decided to find out whether he, the governor of Kyoto, had real credentials.

If the ministers in the court are all idlers, after he ascends the throne, he must replace a group of old ministers and remove those who are dishonest from the official ranks.

Liu Qian got the promise and immediately turned back. He gave the master a look, and the two went to the side hall to discuss.

"Sir, I see that that person is not the regent. Why should you be so respectful to him? Why don't you take him into custody?"

Liu Qian sighed: "Hey, his tone and momentum are exactly the same as those of the Regent. I am afraid that the Regent will pretend to be a commoner to test me. The Princess Regent is good at magic, so we must not be careless."

"I see, then I can only decide the case impartially." The master came up with an idea: "How about calling Guo Yonghuai's mother, wife and servants for questioning?"

"Let's do it this way?" Liu Qian couldn't think of any other good ideas for the time being.

But after waiting for a moment, Guo Yonghuai's mother and wife were summoned.

"My son, my grandson, Mr. Liu, you must not listen to the one-sided words of unruly people and slander our loyal family."

"We were wrongly accused. Guo Yongmao has been dead for many years. Our entire clan knows this. We can ask the clan leader to testify."

As soon as Mrs. Guo arrived, she cried and cried for her son and grandson.

Mrs. Guo Bai also said: "Master Liu, please be aware that I am the wife of Guo Yonghuai who was married by the Ming matchmaker. We got married before he won the election. With the marriage certificate as proof, I can't possibly admit that I am my husband by mistake."

Zou Mingming looked at the old lady and Mrs. Guo with an angry look on his face.

"You are calling a deer a horse, and you have done something that is unconscionable and harmful to nature, and you have the nerve to give false testimony here. You have colluded to murder the real Guo Yonghuai. God does not hide the evil, and you will eventually get the retribution you deserve."

"How dare you, who are you? You actually slandered Mrs. Ren Gaoming." Old Mrs. Guo couldn't recognize Zou Mingming and rushed towards him to beat him.

Ning Luo threw a peanut, and the old lady slipped and fell on her grandson Guo Rui, causing the injured Guo Rui to scream in agony.

"Ms. Bai, don't you recognize me?" Zou Mingming forced himself in front of the woman and asked her to take a closer look at his appearance.

"You are..." Bai recognized Zou Mingming, and his face turned pale with fright. When he recovered, he immediately said: "I don't know you, who are you?"

Zou Mingming said bitterly: "Mr. Bai, you don't recognize me, but I know you. I am the real book boy of Guo Yonghuai. After the eldest son married you, he concentrated on preparing for the imperial examination. Since you gave birth to the younger son, he rarely has sex with you. , I didn’t expect that you would shamelessly seduce my uncle and seduce Guo Yongmao. The two of you worked together to frame the eldest son, seize his fame, seize his family property, make your mother-in-law angry to death, and drive the eldest son into a madman. You deserve death. !”

"I didn't, you're talking nonsense!".

"Am I talking nonsense? Mrs. Bai, do you dare to swear to God that you didn't tell your son that you didn't let him recognize a thief as his father?"

Zou Mingming kicked Guo Jia again.

"Your biological father is Guo Yonghuai. The current impostor is Guo Yongmao. He colluded with your mother to steal your biological father's fame and rose through the ranks. Do you know how tragic your biological father's death was..."

Hearing this, Guo Jia was dumbfounded.

"Mother, is what he said true?"

"No, he's talking nonsense. I don't know him. He's a lunatic." Bai denied it hastily.

Zou Mingming smiled and said: "Oh, blood relationship cannot be denied. Guo Jia, you have a red birthmark as big as a fingernail on your side waist. This is inherited from your biological father."

Hearing this, Guo Jia was shocked. If Zou Mingming was really a stranger, how could he know the birthmark on his waist?
