Before the crowd around broke free from the surprise of Li Xianyuan's capture of the head of the case, they saw several officials coming to capture the case.

Li Xianyuan looked around and thought in his heart. Is someone dead? Or is someone targeting him?

After thinking about it, Xu Zhitian, who was surrounded by several rich young men, was the most suspicious of the crowd not far away.

Gao Daguan sent a hand: "Li, don't force him to do something."

Li Xianyuan turned around and nodded: "Please lead the way."

The official officer admired Li Xianyuan's calmness very much, but the public belonged to the public and private belonged to the private. He still took Li Xianyuan and Ji Canghai away without hesitation.

After the two left, the crowd burst into noise. Some sighed and some gloated.

"Did the head of the Li case kill someone? No."

"I said why didn't I go there when I invited him yesterday? It turned out that I had visited the brothel."

"I just took the case head and was arrested by the official. I don't know if I can release it."

“…”

In another group, a young man surrounded Xu Zhitian suddenly said happily: "Congratulations to Mr. Xu."

"What are you congratulating me?" Xu Zhitian stared at Li Xianyuan's figure and asked in confusion.

"If Li Xianyuan commits a murder case, his achievements will naturally be cancelled. At that time, Mr. Xu, you will be the head of the case."

The other teenagers also suddenly realized and expressed their joy.

Xu Zhitian looked away and snorted coldly: "If you lose, you will lose. I, Xu Zhitian, have not yet reached the point of tripping. This is strange, I have to go home to report to my brother."

After saying that, no matter how many companions were, they squeezed away from the crowd and left. The few companions behind him looked at each other in all directions.

...

The Wuhou County County Government is facing north and south, and two tall and mighty stone lions are vivid at the gate. On one hand, they hear the big drum hanging outside the door. If you have any grievances and want to sue the county government, just beat the drum.

Many people have heard the news and ran outside the county government gate to join in the fun.

"Look! The head of the case was brought!" Someone in the crowd saw Li Xianyuan and the other two who were led by the yamen runners in the crowd.

"What a pity. At a young age and so talented, how could he kill someone?" An old lady in the crowd said regretfully.

"Shh... I don't know why, don't gossip." The man dressed in a middle-aged scholar next to him raised his index finger and told him not to talk nonsense.

The crowd was bustling, and he automatically made a way for Li Xianyuan and others to pass through.

In full view of the public, they walked past the threshold and entered the county government office. The crowd rushed up and squeezed to the front of the county government office.

Two stone tablets were erected behind the county government gate, false accusations were added to third grade, and more than fifty-year frown was slaughtered.

After passing the stone tablet, the county government hall lobby is the lobby.

The lobby is wide, with guards, knives, guns, swords, halberds, torture instruments, etc. on both sides. Two red lacquer columns in front of the hall are embedded with wooden couplets.

Losing - bullying

People--People

That is—such as

Losing - bullying

Country - Heaven

Ten yamen runners in the hall stood on both sides, holding half red and half black water and fire sticks, majestic and solemn. The ground was neatly paved with bluestone.

The three-foot magic table is located on the hall, with four treasures of study and quiver on the table. The magistrate is wearing official uniform and sitting on the chair of the Grand Master behind the table, holding a gavel, and being powerful without anger. The master stands behind the right side. He hangs a plaque with golden characters like "The mirror is hanging high".

Ji Canghai was stopped outside the hall. The idle people were unable to wait. Only Li Xianyuan was passed on, but not him.

Li Xianyuan turned around and whispered to him: "No matter what you ask, just pretend to be deaf and dumb." Then he was led by the official to the court.

"Sir, bring the suspect." Gao Daguanmao stood in the hall, clasped his fists at the magistrate, turned his head and looked at Li Xianyuan and retreated.

There were only two people in the hall except for the yamen runners and the magistrate. Li Xianyuan stood upright and the middle-aged man kneeling beside him. Li Xianyuan recognized him as one of the two who bullied Ji Canghai last night.

The hall was filled with people watching the fun. The county government handled cases on weekdays and allowed residents to watch.

"Who is in the hall? Why don't you kneel when you see me!" the magistrate shouted sternly.

The master stepped forward and whispered to the magistrate: "The magistrate doesn't know anything. This person is named Li Xianyuan. Today, Tong Sheng Examination announced that he was the head of the case and led to an affair on Tong Sheng Examination. According to the Da Shang Law, he has the right not to kneel down."

"Oh? As the head of the case, I can't kneel." After hearing this, the magistrate looked at Li Xianyuan up and down, showing some praise. It's not surprising that he was not surprised by praise or criticism. But then his eyebrows stood up and he slapped the arbor.

"Li Xianyuan, do you know your guilt!"

This is a threat. If anyone with a ghost in his heart is ashamed, he will inevitably show his timidity.

Li Xianyuan's face was calm. She first lowered her head and bowed her hand to look up at the magistrate: "I don't know."

"Someone sued you for killing someone, but is there any such incident?"

“No.”

The magistrate turned his head and looked at the middle-aged man kneeling beside Li Xianyuan: "Oh? That official wants to ask this lawsuit against Li Xiaoer. You said that Li Xianyuan killed your brother, but there is a certificate."

Li Xiaoer's face was a bit pale. He knew that Li Xianyuan was the head of Tongsheng's test case. He was not satisfied with the human heart and snake swallowed an elephant. He wanted to use this to extort more money, but he would bite a hard bone.

He gritted his teeth. At worst, he would split the money and go away with Liu Liu. Anyway, so many people in the Shangfangyuan saw it yesterday. He spent another two taels to buy the brothel. So what about the leader of the case? With such a proof that even the top scorer would have to peel off even if he came!

In the hall, Ji Canghai's delicate and pretty face in the crowd showed a sad look. He wanted to use this to bring his relationship with Li Xianyuan closer, but he did not expect that he would backfire and put his name as a murderer on his back.

Ji Canghai moved his palm down and finally pressed it on the sachet.

No matter what, Li Xianyuan cannot make any mistakes!

The case in the hall was still going on, and when Li Xiaoer kowtowed heavily, his forehead was swollen, and he cried, "Sir, don't listen to his words. After a day of busyness, my brother and I wanted to go to the brothel to drink wine. As a result, when we both drank too much, we saw a stunning woman, and thought it was the brothel girl who teased her."

"I am certainly wrong in this matter. But I will not die! Li Li and Li..." Li Xiaoer cried and shouted, pointing at Li Xianyuan for a long time, but the master said kindly: "Li Xianyuan."

Li Xiaoer continued to cry: "Thank you. This Li Xianyuan was so crazy that he kicked my poor brother down the river, causing him to die. Many people saw this, please let me decide for me..."

This is Li Xiaoer's cleverness. He told a lie and could not hide it from the magistrate's eyes. So he did not add fuel to the fire, but basically restored the facts. Anyway, Liu Liu had already hidden himself. No one saw him coming ashore, and the official officer could not catch the body, so he naturally thought it was sunk to the bottom of the Qinghu Lake.

The magistrate closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then opened his eyes: "You said that many people saw it that day, but who saw it?"

Li Xiaoer quickly clasped his fists and said, "Report to the magistrate, the busty from the Shangfangyuan will see it!"

"Since that's the case..." The magistrate gently stroked his beard: "Come here, I'll tell you that the brothel in the Fangyuan Garden will come to the hall!"

Li Xianyuan's pupils, who had never said a word, shrank slightly.
