Chapter 150 The End of Liao Chao (5)
Wang Zhifu's eyes were clear, his posture was correct, and he cupped his hands and said, "I really don't know about it. It has been three years since I came here to take office. Three years ago, Li Zhixian reported the situation in Luo County to me, but he never said anything about the refugees. Moreover, I have never seen refugees in the city, so I don't know about it, but as a magistrate, I don't know that this kind of thing happened in the area under my jurisdiction, and I am also responsible for it."

Li Wenfu nodded. This magistrate is fairly honest. He sent someone to investigate this matter. When Wang Zhifu came to Luo County, Li Zhixian had been an official here. For the sake of performance, he did not tell Wang Zhifu about the refugees.

Xu Chengwei took a look at Li Wenfu, and Li Wenfu said: "The problem of refugees has been backlogged until now, and it is caused by you officials who concealed it. If you don't punish severely, it will only increase your arrogance. Come on, take off the official robes of Lizhi County , he is not worthy to wear this dress."

Two yamen servants came out and started to take off Li Zhixian's coat. Li Zhixian tried his best to break free from them, but he still made people take off the official robe. He looked at the clothes, although he was just a small Magistrate, but he has been wearing this suit for six years. He was the magistrate of Los Angeles County before the war. It was a chaos at that time. There is a chance to be promoted, but now even this little county magistrate can't keep it.

Liao Chao's eyes widened from the sidelines. He never thought that such a thing would happen to his uncle. If so, what should he do? Even his uncle has suffered, so what will happen if he kills someone?He shuddered at the thought.He kept shrinking his body into a ball.

Li Wenfu saw the reactions of the two of them, but he was not in charge of the trial of the case, he just stayed here and watched.So he said: "Now let's solve the case of Liao Chao's murder first. This is your responsibility for Wang Zhifu. As for your problem, it will be judged later."

"Yes!" Prefect Wang replied in a deep voice, although he didn't know who this person was, but judging by Old General Xu's attitude towards him, he might have a different identity.

Wang Zhifu stood up, walked to Liao Chao, lowered his head and asked, "Liao Chao, did you order your subordinates to kill Ah Mao?"

"No, I didn't kill people. I didn't kill people." Liao Chao knew that he couldn't admit it no matter what.

"Prefect Wang, hurry up and pass on a witness. He was at the scene at the time and saw with his own eyes that he ordered his subordinates to do it." Xu Jianhui said.

Wang Zhifu nodded, and ordered the yamen servant to send witnesses to come up.

After a while a middle-aged man was brought up, he knelt down and kowtowed, Wang Zhifu asked him about the situation at that time, he recalled and said, "The villain just came out of Liji's shop at that time, and saw a beggar bumping into him. A person was killed, and the person pushed the beggar to the ground. I don't know what the beggar said. The person waved his hand, and several people under him rushed up and beat the beggar to the ground. He was beaten badly, but The man still refused to let him go, and finally he fell to the ground, and the man stepped forward and stepped on him a few times, and I saw some silver dropped from the beggar, which was picked up by the man and given to his subordinates."

"Do you still remember who that person is? Is he in the hall?" Wang Zhifu asked.

The middle-aged man looked at the few people on the side. Liao Chao kept lowering his head, just not to be seen. Wang Zhifu gave a look, and a yamen servant came out and raised Liao Chao's head. The middle-aged man shouted: "It's just he."

Wang Zhifu asked in a deep voice: "Do you recognize it clearly?"

The middle-aged man nodded, "It's him. I won't admit it. He found me and raised his fist at me. I was so scared that I ran away."

Wang Zhifu came to Liao Chao's side: "What else do you have to say now?"

"I, uncle, save me!" Liao Chao cried and rushed towards Li Zhixian.

Li Zhixian lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Liao Chao. He also hated Liao Chao to death now. If he hadn't caused trouble, there would be no fuss about the refugees.Besides, he is now a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and it is difficult to protect himself, so he pushed him away.

Liao Chao knew he was doomed, and knelt down on the ground powerlessly, his eyes glazed over. "The villain has nothing to say."

Wang Zhifu held a piece of paper and said to him: "Since you have pleaded guilty, then put a bet on this testimony."

Liao Chao was unaware and indifferent, the yamen servant grabbed his hand and pressed it on the paper.

When all the dust settled, Wang Zhifu passed the testimony to Xu Chengwei, and Xu Chengwei passed it to Li Wenfu after reading it.

Li Wenhao hurried over to read it, and after quickly scanning it, he slapped the paper on the table angrily, "Come on, drag it out for me and chop it up!"

Everyone in the hall looked at him, Li Wenhao knew he said something wrong, coughed, "Did I say something wrong, this kind of person should be chopped off."

Li Wenfu glanced at him: "Speak less, this kind of case should be left to Wang Zhifu to judge, but I don't think there will be a good end for a person like him who is so vicious!"

Wang Zhifu nodded again and again, "Yes, Liao Chao murder is a serious crime, and death is not a pity. Come here, take Liao Chao down and wait for Qiuhou to be executed."

Wu Jiafan held He Hua's hand tightly, it turned out that the killing was only in one person's mind, he looked at Liao Chao, would this person be as described by others, with a different head?
He Hua felt Wu Jiafan's emotions, this was the first time she had encountered such a thing, but little people like them could only watch from the sidelines.

At this moment, there were noisy voices from outside the hall.

Wang Zhifu asked, "Why is it so noisy outside? What happened?"

A yamen servant came from outside, he knelt down and said, "My lords, Liao Chao's parents insist on going to court."

Liao Chao came back to his senses when he heard this, and he shouted outside the door: "Father, mother, help!"

"Chao'er!" A female voice outside the door shouted in a crying voice.

Seeing this situation, Wang Zhifu glanced at the senior figures, then turned to the yamen servant in front of him and said, "Let them in."

As soon as Liao Chao's parents entered, they rushed over and hugged him.

Xu Chengwei slapped the table heavily with one hand, and shouted: "What's the noise? Where is this place? Is it your home?"

Father Liao knelt down and kowtowed, and then said: "My lord, my son was wronged!"

"Your son killed someone, and he has already pleaded guilty, and now you are calling for his grievance!" Li Wenhao sneered.

Liao's mother hugged her son and yelled: "Isn't it just killing a beggar? How can such a pariah deserve my son to pay for his life?"

Li Wenhao was amused. "In my eyes, your son is also a pariah and deserves to be killed."

"What are you, calling my son a pariah?" Mother Liao asked sharply.

"Presumptuous, come here, slap your mouth." Xu Chengwei shouted.

"Bang!" Mother Liao screamed and tightly covered her left face, just as she was about to speak.
