Liaozhai Great Sage

Chapter 48

Although Li Xiuyuan has compassion for the poor people, he has very low tolerance for ungrateful local hooligans like Hei San.

These local hooligans do not engage in labor on weekdays, they are domineering, and they don't beat and beat, they will only bring troubles to Guobei County.

In the past, Hei San was still peaceful, but since the county magistrate Liu took office, he has become more and more restless, and Li Xiuyuan would not be so ruthless in normal times, but the current matter is related to his father's safety. Honor and disgrace, how could it be possible for him to be like a woman, and talk to each other well.

Without beheading the black three, Li Xiuyuan felt that he had restrained enough.

"Which one of you would like to report for me?" He suddenly said to the other two yamen servants.

One of the yamen servants had a serious expression on his face, and said respectfully: "The young one is willing to inform the young master, please wait here for a while."

Li Xiuyuan nodded, and then said: "When reporting, don't forget to add the identity of a child student, lest the county magistrate Liu use his authority and turn me away."

"Yes, yes, I have written it down." The yamen servant glanced at Hei San who fell on the ground and howled, and hurriedly turned around and ran away.

I really dare not offend the young master of the Li family.

"Hey, that yamen servant, I came to surrender, why don't you arrest me?" At this moment, Han Meng, who had injured Hei San, pointed to another yamen servant.

Another yamen servant trembled at this time, looked at Li Xiuyuan, and then smiled apologetically: "Don't dare, don't dare, how dare a young man arrest this strong man, just pretend he didn't see this matter, the strong man should hurry up go away."

After this incident, he began to realize that the Li family, which had been silent for many years, was about to start showing its minions.

Others have said that the three generations of the Li family in Guobei County are rich, but who knows that in Li Xiuyuan's generation, the Li family is not just rich and noble.

"What do you mean, let me abscond in fear of crime? I know that if you surrender to the crime, even if you commit a crime, the crime will be reduced. If you abscond in fear of crime, the crime will be increased." Han Meng said carelessly: " Today, if you don't let me surrender, I will sit here and not leave."

After speaking, he sat down on the steps of the yamen.

It seems that he really intends to stay here.

"This, this..." The other guard looked at Li Xiuyuan with a troubled expression on his face: "Young Master, look, what should I do?"

Li Xiuyuan said indifferently: "Don't ask me, I don't know this Han Meng, you just do your business."

"You servant is so talkative. I don't think Hei San can't fight with him. What does it have to do with Mr. Li? This matter is done by me alone. One person does it and one person takes care of it."

Han Meng said, taking everything on himself, but pretending not to know Li Xiuyuan.

But anyone with a discerning eye knows that this Han Meng was sent by Li Xiuyuan.

But the two parties refused to admit it, even if they entered the Yamen, Li Xiuyuan would not be implicated.

It seems that the young master of the Li family is not only ruthless, but also intelligent, so he doesn't want to take advantage of this matter.

The yamen servant is also a person with a flexible mind, and he figured out the way in a blink of an eye.

In my heart, I also had to give a secret praise: Admiration.

"Li, Li Xiuyuan, kill me if you're a motherfucker, or the third master will never end with you in the future, and I will dig the graves of your ancestors for three generations, so that you will have no children or grandchildren." Hei San covered his wound and wailed for a while. He cursed at Li Xiuyuan again.

"Hei San, you still have the strength to shout, is it because I didn't teach you enough just now?" Han Meng grinned, stood up again, and stomped on Hei San fiercely.

Hei San wailed a few times, and at the beginning he kept cursing, his backbone was quite stiff, and then he kept begging for mercy.

"It's wrong, it's wrong, I know it's wrong, please forgive me, I won't dare again, never dare again."

"Bah, the coward who doesn't cry when he sees the coffin, returns the third master, I think he's called the third grandson."

Han Meng took a sip and stopped beating him when he saw him begging for mercy.

Li Xiuyuan glanced at him, and said coldly: "What happened to Hei San today is just to teach you a lesson, and starting tomorrow, I don't want to see you in Guobei County again, otherwise someone will beat you once I see you. If you want to live, get out of Guobei County and never come back, otherwise, I can't guarantee that there will be one of your corpses in the gutters in the county someday."

Hei San was terrified of being beaten, how could he dare to face Li Xiuyuan, feeling the cold gaze, he just shrank together, not daring to look directly.

"I don't want him to die here, go and find Dr. Fan to treat him." Li Xiuyuan said to the yamen servant.

He didn't want Hei San to die because he didn't want Han Meng's crime to be aggravated. If it was just hurting people, and he voluntarily surrendered, even if the magistrate Liu made a fuss, he wouldn't be able to convict him of anything.

I still have to play a game with magistrate Liu, so I don't want to make trouble at this moment.

"There are gangsters in the yamen. I dare not talk about serious illnesses, but knife wounds and the like can still be cured." The yamen servant said.

Li Xiuyuan threw him a silver coin: "Go."

"Don't dare, how can I take money from the young master for such a trivial matter." The yamen servant hurriedly said.

"Just take it if you tell me, don't talk so much nonsense." Li Xiuyuan said.

Only then did the yamen servant accept the money gratefully, and then ran away in a hurry, presumably asking for a job to treat the black three.

"Eldest, young master, the county lord summoned the young master, please invite the young master inside."

At this time, another guard ran out from the county office and said out of breath.

Li Xiuyuan nodded and stepped into the county office.

"Hey, I'm here to surrender, when will you arrest me, Chad, I'm not happy to surrender, are you?" Han Meng was still yelling outside.

Li Xiuyuan had already ordered that after hurting someone, he must insist on surrendering to the crime no matter what, and not to leave, and the Li family will settle other matters.

Of course, there will be at least 1000 taels of silver as a reward after the event is completed.

However, spending 1000 taels to solve the black three is worth it.

The yamen in Guobei County is not big, and Li Xiuyuan soon came to the lobby.

At this time, there were arresters on the left and right in the lobby, the yamen servants stood upright, holding water and fire sticks, and the leader Xu catcher secretly gave Li Xiuyuan a wink when he saw Li Xiuyuan coming, telling him to be careful.

Li Xiuyuan remained calm and looked up at the main seat.

A slightly fat middle-aged man with white face and short beard sat proudly on the main seat, and beside him stood a thin and thin clerk, who should be the teacher next to County Magistrate Liu.

"Who is in the hall, report your name quickly." County magistrate Liu said flatly, slapping the gavel.

"The Li family in Guobei County, Li Xiuyuan was born as a child, and I have met the county magistrate." Li Xiuyuan looked calm and bowed his hands in a salute.

Magistrate Liu shouted: "Bold, since you know that I am the magistrate, why don't you kneel? You are contemptuous of the court, come, let this person kneel."

The yamen servants on the left and right all turned pale and hesitated.

Young master of Guobei County, can you move around casually?
"Why, you want to disobey my order." Magistrate Liu shouted again.

At this time, there were a few yamen servants who wanted to come out to deal with Li Xiuyuan. After all, magistrate Liu was in charge of them, and they had to obey the orders of the magistrate.

However, Li Xiuyuan smiled slightly at this time and said, "The county magistrate is very forgetful. Wansheng has already said it before. Wansheng is a child. He has fame and fame. According to the court's law, he can see officials without kneeling."

Immediately, he changed his words and called himself a late student.

"Master, is there such a thing?" County magistrate Liu frowned and looked at the master next to him.

The master smiled awkwardly: "Back to my lord, but there is this matter. The young master of the Li family has been a child a few years ago, and this year Li Qiu will go to Guo Beicheng to take an examination for a scholar. The list has been submitted, and it was done by the previous county magistrate." .”

"In this case, there is no need to kneel."

Magistrate Liu said: "However, this county magistrate is busy with official duties on weekdays. Li Xiuyuan, are you here to report the case or appeal for grievances? If you report the case, you scholars should write a pleading and submit it. If you appeal for injustice, why can't you hear you beating drums outside to complain?"

Now the magistrate Liu is not confused.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Wansheng is neither here to report the crime nor to complain."

"Absurd, it's neither a report nor a complaint. Are you here to amuse my master? Come here and throw him out." County magistrate Liu seemed to want to show off Li Xiuyuan, and he would kneel and blow him up at every turn.

But this is also a common trick of officials.

If he met poor people, he would naturally tremble and kneel down to beg, but it was a pity that he met Li Xiuyuan.
