It is not a simple thing to clarify the dispute between Li Luoyang's family and Li Pingwu. Neither Zhang Xiaohua nor Li Baoshan's eloquence is enough. Finally, Li Luoyang "selflessly" stood up and said that he can tell it from the beginning. If there is injustice, Zhang Xiaohua and Li Baoshan can put it forward.

With no objection from both sides, Li Luoyang started from the death of Li Pingwu's son and said that he and Li Chengzhen returned to Lijia village together. As a result, Wu denggui informed Li Pingwu of his murder, and then turned around the whole process. Although he is still young, he has made great achievements in cultivating breathing and breathing recently, so he is full of confidence. Even the melon audience outside the court are amazed and admire Li Luoyang at his young age.

Although Zhang Xiaohua, Li Baoshan and Li Pingwu's relatives couldn't bear to see the melons cheering for Li Luoyang, Li Luoyang used accurate words and took an impartial position in the process of telling, so that they couldn't find anything wrong at all.

"Where are Wu denggui and Li Chengcheng?"

"My Lord, Wu denggui is an old pawn of the Lijia village post station. He is not in Anning county. Li Chengzhen is a blacksmith in the city. I'll find him now."

"No, no, I'm here."

As soon as Zhang Jiong's voice fell, Li Chengzhen's simple and honest voice came from outside the court. Now the whole Anning county knows that Li Luoyang was brought to the Yamen. How could Li Chengzhen still forge in the blacksmith's shop? He had long been crowded outside the court and waited silently.

"Come in."

"It's said that blacksmith Li Chengcheng."

As Li Chengcheng ascended the hall, some of the melon crowd began to point out. Although the "Li Chengzhen blacksmith shop" has not been open for a long time in the city of Anning County, the fist product of the heater designed by Li Luoyang has already opened a reputation for the blacksmith shop. As an expensive but worthy heating equipment, it is almost in short supply in Anning county. For safety reasons, Li Luoyang requires that each heater must be installed by Li Chengcheng himself, so during this period, Li Chengcheng is also a "celebrity" in Anning county.

"My Lord, Li Chengzhen has always had a good relationship with Li Luoyang, and his words are not trustworthy!" Li Baoshan first objected to Li Chengzhen's going to court, while Zhang Xiaohua began to "cry" again, gently describing how her life was hard and how pitiful her husband Li Pingwu was.

"People call Li honest. How can he lie?"

"Yes, Li Chengli has installed a heater for my family. He is absolutely honest. He doesn't want any more copper."

"Isn't it? I've also visited his blacksmith shop. It's really good and cheap. Young and old people are honest. How can such people be dishonest?"

The comments of the melon crowd suppressed the voices of Zhang Xiaohua and Li Baoshan. It was good. They didn't need Liu Ting to speak. They had to interrupt the performance and stared at Li Chengzhen for questioning.

"Li Chengcheng, did you ever go back to Lijia village with Li Luoyang?"

"Yes."

"When do you start?"

"When the sun shines."

"When will you return?"

"At noon."

"When will you return to town?"

"When holding the lamp."

"Did you ever see Li Luoyang the day before?"

"Yes."

"When?"

"From going out together in the morning to the kitchen behind the light."

"In other words, you can be sure that Li Luoyang was in Anning county all the time on the day of the incident?"

"Yes."

Li Chengzhen was not a talkative person, so Liu Ting basically asked and said in the court, and the answer was simple and fast. This kind of talent was the favorite of the officials during the trial.

"Well, you can step down first. Li Baoshan, Zhang Xiaohua, just Li Cheng's answer. Can you hear me clearly?"

"I've heard it clearly, but after all, it's just one side of Li Chengzhen's words. They have an excellent relationship in the village. The whole village knows it."

"Yes, maybe they are in collusion."

"Besides, we don't mean that it was Li Luoyang who killed Pingwu. It was the Greenwood man he paid for." Zhang Xiaohua added. She told Li Baoshan that she wanted to kill Li Luoyang. It was obvious that she wanted to cure Li Luoyang.

Liu Ting frowned behind the desk.

According to the statements made by everyone now, there is indeed a contradiction between Li Luoyang and Li Pingwu. Logically, Li Luoyang is indeed possible to buy murders, but Li Baoshan and Zhang Xiaohua lack direct evidence to prove that Li Luoyang bought murders.

If the case is tried to this extent, Liu Ting can completely punish the suspect, which is also common sense. If the suspect is indeed wronged, of course, he can survive. If there is a ghost in his heart, it is often difficult to bear torture. This technique is known as "bending into a trick" in later generations, but it is a common means used by trial officials in this era. There is nothing wrong with it.

Li Baoshan and Zhang Xiaohua agreed at the beginning. In their opinion, as long as the battle is big enough, Li Luoyang must be punished. How strong can a child's willpower be? Maybe he will admit it after a few boards. Whether the strong man is telling the truth or lies, Li Luoyang is dead.

Compared with the real goal of revenge against Li Pingwu, Li Baoshan is just to vent his anger and maintain his dignity in Lijia village. As for Zhang Xiaohua, maybe she is stealing music in her heart. So they don't care if Li Luoyang will be wronged at all. They just want to see Li Luoyang convicted.

"Sir, should the suspect be punished?"

Under the hint of Zhang Xiaohua's eyes, Zhang Jiong, an insider, just stood up and "reminded" county magistrate Liu Ting. On the surface, he looked righteous, but Li Luoyang saw the flirtation between this guy and Zhang Xiaohua at a glance, and secretly scolded "adulterer and adulteress" in his heart.

"Step back."

Liu tingslightly glanced at Zhang Jiong with dissatisfied eyes and was about to speak. Li Luoyang took a step forward and bowed his hands and said, "Sir, the grass people heard that Zhang Jiong is Zhang Xiaohua's brother. Tut tut."

Li Luoyang seemed to say something and didn't say anything, but the melons outside the hall were not calm immediately. They pointed at Zhang Jiong and scolded him, saying that he was shameless and shameless. This discussion really made Zhang Jiong blush. In front of Liu Ting, he had a bad attack and his chest was about to explode.

"Zhang Jiong, please avoid it first." Liu Ting originally thought Zhang Jiong was in the way. Now he just pushed the boat along the water and asked Zhang Jiong to leave the court. Then he calmed the melons outside the hall. Then he turned to Li Luoyang and asked him if he had more evidence. Otherwise, it would be difficult to clarify that he had nothing to do with Li Pingwu's death.

"My Lord, the grass-roots people dared to ask them. They kept saying that the people who killed Li Pingwu were the grass-roots people. Is there any evidence?"

"What we heard with our own ears is the evidence." Li Baoshan and Zhang Xiaohua replied in unison.

"Oh." Li Luoyang slightly jawed his head and said clearly, "it is said that Li Pingwu was killed in the middle of the night. The village head is so hard. Do you squat outside Li Pingwu's room or on the roof at midnight?"

"Coax ~"

As soon as Li Luoyang said this, Li Baoshan's face was like pig liver, and the laughter outside the hall was like thunder.
