Three villagers with broken legs were carried to the county office.

Thirty officers were already standing in three rows.

There was also a crowd of people around, waiting for three villagers to testify to who broke their legs.

Although Tian Feng had already understood it before, he still asked, "Are you all the same person who beat you that day?" ”

"My lord, the three of us came together that day, and two of the officers held us down, and the other broke our legs with a stick."

"If you were to be identified now, you would still know the officer who broke your legs."

"Yes."

"The villain dreams of the scene every night, and the villain will never forget it in his life."

"Even if the villain is dead, he will not forget."

The three villagers with broken legs were very excited.

But now, even if they punish the errand soldiers, it will only give them a breath of relief, their legs have been broken, they have missed the spring ploughing, even if they are restored later, their legs and feet will be inconvenient, and a lot of farm work will not be able to be done.

"It's good to recognize them, now that they're all outside, the three of you just need to identify the broken leg and the other participants, and the official will definitely give you justice."

Tian Feng paused and said, "But the three of you don't go out at the same time, as long as the three of you point out the same person, I don't think anyone will say that you are falsely accused." Huang County Order, don't you say? ”

Huang Yuan's face stiffened, and he said: "If they are identified separately, the result will be the same, and naturally it will not be a false accusation." ”

The three villagers were carried out in turn to identify them, and there was no contact in between.

"All three of them are referring to the same thing."

The onlookers have also been watching.

"The last time they were beaten, I saw it with my own eyes, God has eyes, and finally these scum will be punished."

"If you do, why don't you testify?"

The person who spoke happened to be standing next to Zhao Hui, and Zhao Hui asked casually.

"Testify? I am also old and young, where do I dare to participate in this kind of thing. Even if I come out to testify and they are punished, I will not have a good life in the future, and the other officers in the yamen will target me. The man said.

Even now, he was only talking in the crowd, and his voice was still low, only a few people around him heard it.

The three officers who were identified were all taken in.

The people around were already clapping their hands happily.

Zhao Hui has been observing, observing Huang Yuan in the observation hall, as well as the prisoners lying down, and the people who are watching.

Syllable!

The sound of startled wood started, and then said Huang Yuan's voice.

"You three, why do you want to break people's legs and feet?"

"My lord, these three people made trouble in front of the door that day, and we persuaded them first, but the more they made trouble, the more fierce they became, and they wanted to break into the yamen, so I waited for this to happen."

"They were emaciated, and one of them broke his leg when we pushed him. Then the other two were about to beat me and so on, and I had to wait until I fought back, and accidentally broke the legs of the other two. ”

"My lord, it's not like this, it's not like this, we didn't make trouble at all, the three of us just came to ask to see the county magistrate, and after they asked us the reason, they wanted to drive us away, but we didn't ask for the money, so we kept guarding the door, so they took wooden sticks and broke the legs of the three of us."

Syllable!

Huang Yuan likes to use startling wood, and every time before speaking, he has to shoot it.

"You both have your own opinions, but do you have witnesses?"

"My lord, we have witnesses, although it was the three of us who did it that day, there were other colleagues present."

"My lord, Ma Tong Zhou Gao and they have all seen it, and they can testify for us."

Huang Yuan said: "Let Ma Tong Zhou Gao come in." ”

These two people are also the officers of the county government, and they were standing outside just now.

Syllable!

"Ma Tong, Zhou Gao, are you two willing to testify and guarantee that what the three of them said is true?"

"Lord Hui, the two of us are willing to testify, and it is true that as Zhang Yan said, it was the three villagers who started the trouble first."

"You're talking nonsense." The three villagers were lying on the door panel, but at the moment they were excited to stand up.

Even despite the pain of broken feet, he could only barely lift his upper body.

They didn't expect that everyone would identify it, but the other party could also reverse black and white.

The three villagers were in despair.

Being carried from Xiaoyang Village, they were full of hope, but the result was ......

Syllable!

"Silence."

Huang Yuan shouted: "You three, do you have witnesses?" ”

He seemed to be fair, and he didn't make a decision immediately because Ma Tong and Zhou Gao testified.

The three villagers glanced at each other, and when they were beaten that day, there were indeed other people around who saw them.

But at this time, where do they go to find witnesses?

One of them looked at the people outside the county government and shouted: "But there is a brother who is willing to testify for us when he sees the situation that day, and I am grateful." ”

Outside, the buzzing conversation suddenly stopped, and some people shrank back a few steps.

They did not dare to come as witnesses.

Fear of getting into trouble.

In this county office, a reversal of black and white is being staged, and they can be counted out to testify, is it really useful?

If they offend these servants, they will not have a good life in the future, and the city will often be troubled, and then find a reason, and their families will be ruined.

Even they would love to see these errand men punished and put in prison.

But they are not hot-blooded teenagers anymore, they have too many concerns, and they need to think about their families.

It's arrogant to stand up now, but tomorrow their families will be targeted.

The people do not fight with the officials.

This sentence has been deeply engraved in their hearts.

"Whoever wants to testify for us, please, will you help us testify?"

The three villagers sat on the door panel and looked at the crowd outside, but no one came.

"Don't you want to help them?" Zhao Hui said in a low voice.

The man beside him had said before that he had seen the servants beating people, but at this moment, Zhao Hui looked at him and still didn't look like he wanted to come out to testify.

"Big brother, stop kidding." The man glanced at Zhao Hui: "If you want to testify, you go by yourself, don't come to harm me." ”

"Don't be afraid, as long as you dare to testify, I will ensure that your whole family is fine." Zhao Hui said in a low voice.

"You? How can you guarantee that I'm okay? The man didn't believe Zhao Hui's words at all.

Zhao Hui is also dressed in cloth now, no different from him.

He is old and young, and he has long passed the age of impulsive heroes.

All he is thinking about now is how to make a good life for his family.

When he came here today, he came to see the excitement, and it was best to see the bad luck of the errand officer, but now it seems that this Ning'an County is still the back garden of the Huang County Order.

Even if there are some senior officials from the Discipline Inspection Department in Yecheng, there is still no way to take the officials of Ning'an County.

The man was a little disappointed.

Ning'an, Ning'an County, people's hearts are very uneasy.

Although today's judgment is going to disappoint me again.

But so be it.

It's better to live your life carefully and don't provoke right and wrong.
