Chapter 153 Who is the real culprit? The public trial won a big victory

On Luming Street, a strange scene appeared.

In the midst of the crowded crowd, an open space was made, and countless people watched the three brothers of the Liu family in the center of the open space either lively or indifferent or in amazement.

The eldest brother Liu Ziwen fell into the arms of the second brother Liu Zian.

His chest was bleeding profusely, his seven orifices were bleeding slowly, his body twitched once and for all, his eyes stared into dead fish eyes, like a fish being forced to death by a fishmonger in the market, and seemed to be experiencing some unspeakable pain in his body. suffering.

This is not a symptom that should be experienced after all kinds of stabbing in the chest and belly, but a poisoning symptom similar to that of the jade goblet fairy who passed out in the court not far away.

It’s just that right now, the toxicity that Liu Ziwen is suffering from seems to be in the initial stage, the toxin does not penetrate deeply into the body, and the symptoms are not as severe as those of Immortal Yucheng before.

However, if this strange poison is indeed a mechanism for destroying the meridians and blood vessels, then compared with the violent and slow, the latter is obviously more like torture.

From Liu Ziwen’s distorted facial expression at the moment, one can see the general clue.

The body of a man in a felt hat was lying on the ground nearby, and Yan Liulang and other arresters rushed up to surround it.

However, at this moment, except for Liu Zilin, Liu Ziwen and other members of the Liu family who were crying and crying, the atmosphere in the audience quickly cooled down.

The reverberation of the man in the felt hat who yelled before committing suicide not long ago still seemed to be faintly echoing in the air.

The field was quiet, Yan Liulang, Diao Xiancheng and other county government officials, as well as the onlookers and civilians all subconsciously cast their eyes on the public case not far away.

Ouyang Rong, Shen Xisheng, and Wang Lengran all sat at the desk.

grown ups?Which grown-up?
Many people in the crowd exchanged glances, and doubts permeated the crowd.

The side of the desk became the focus of attention.

Shen Xisheng looked at Wang Lengran for the first time.

Wang Lengran turned his head and stared at Ouyang Rong.

Not only him, many eyes on the field also fell on Ouyang Rong.

Only Xie Lingjiang, except for the surprise in her eyes at first, didn’t turn her head to look at the elder brother.

Xie Lingjiang stopped calmly beside the corpse of the man in the felt hat, put on a handkerchief to pick up the blood-stained dagger on the ground, and looked at it carefully under the sunlight.

Under the sun, Ouyang Rong stood upright, with his hands on the table and his upper body leaning forward.

He ignored the reactions of Wang Lengran, Shen Xisheng and others around him.

“Save people first!”

Under his heroic eyebrows, his eyes looked straight ahead, and he spoke loudly at the first moment.

Xie Lingjiang immediately put down his dagger and stepped forward, swiping away Liu Zilin and others, using spiritual energy to quickly seal Liu Ziwen’s acupuncture points.

With the previous experience of the Yuxi female fairy, Xie Lingjiang seems to be somewhat proficient in the mechanism of this poison, and the operation is extremely quick.

After the convulsions stopped, the bleeding from the seven orifices slowed down, and the poison in the body was temporarily suppressed, Liu Ziwen didn’t pass out, but his face was pale and weak.

“Doctor! What about the doctor, hurry up and call someone, hurry up!”

Liu Zian shouted loudly and eagerly, and the surrounding policemen and the servants of the Liu family rushed to invite the nearest doctor from the medical center.

“Brother hold on!”

Liu Zi’an’s eyes were bloodshot, and he lowered his head sadly, clutching a handkerchief, wiping the blood from his mouth, nose, and mouth for his elder brother Liu Ziwen with trembling hands.

The onlookers thought that what followed would be a tragic scene of a brother being assassinated.

“You…you…you are so ruthless!”

The upper body of Liu Ziwen, who was staring at dead fish eyes, suddenly stood up like a corpse, and the left bloody hand that was covering his chest tightly clamped Liu Zian’s wrist with the handkerchief, like a dying crab, and caught the prey with the last blow.

Under the eyes of everyone, Liu Ziwen’s face was full of ferociousness, and he yelled at Liu Zian:

“You are my younger brother, why? Why! You…you are so ruthless!”

With the last few words, a trace of grief appeared on his blood-smeared ferocious face.

Liu Zian’s face seemed to be stunned for a moment, and the palm handkerchief tightly clamped on his wrist fell down.

“Huh—!”

When the civilians who crowded Luming Street heard this, they immediately let out a burst of surprise.

Who would have thought that the situation would develop like this, as if something big had been eaten.

It turned out that the people who were looking at Ouyang Rong, Shen Xisheng, and Wang Lengran at the desk turned their heads to look at a certain figure who was sitting there.

Xie Lingjiang, Diao Xiancheng, and Yan Liulang couldn’t help looking sideways at Liu Zian.

The three Ouyang Rong with different faces at the desk also turned their eyes to look at Liu Zian.

In addition, Liu Zilin and other members of the Liu family subconsciously took a step back, staring at the second head of the Liu family who was hugging Liu Ziwen sadly.

“Brother, what are you talking about, it’s not me, I didn’t do it, how could I do such a thing, brother! No…it’s not me!”

Liu Zian’s mouth was wide open, he was at a loss for a while, and even stuttered from being wronged.

Immediately, he stood up abruptly and looked around.

Facing the eyes of the audience and the wide-open eyes of the third younger brother Liu Zilin, Liu Zian shouted indignantly:

“My eldest brother and I are brothers and sisters, how could we do such a thing! Who instigated this matter, and our brotherhood is separated, I, Liu Zian and the Liu family, will definitely be at odds with him!”

After gnashing his teeth at the audience, Liu Zian sat down again and hugged Liu Ziwen tightly. Instead of looking at him, he turned his head to Liu Zilin and other members of the Liu family and said with a straight face:

“What we need to do now is not to be suspicious! Third brother, Liu Fu, hurry up and call for a doctor, the elder brother’s injury cannot be delayed any longer! Believe it or not, save the elder brother first, let’s talk about other things when we go back, I am innocent and upright, You can prove yourself, and then let the whole family examine and investigate! Go to work now!”

Making arrangements on the spot as the second in charge of the Liu family, Liu Zian turned his head abruptly, and yelled in the direction of the case table:
“My lord Ouyang, my lord Wang, and my lord Shen, there are despicable enemies who hire murderers to kill people. I hope that some lords will send people to investigate clearly. We must investigate and find out the truth. In addition, can the public trial be slowed down a little bit today? Big brother… big brother… “

The second head of the Liu family hugged his elder brother and burst into tears.

The audience was silent, silently watching the distraught Liu Zian.

His words made everyone look at each other in blank dismay.

Ouyang Rong glanced sideways at Liu Zian, and also exchanged glances with the little junior sister who was watching coldly from a close distance beside the Liu family brothers.

The latter shook his head slightly, indicating that she was not sure.

The faces of the members of the Liu family headed by Liu Zilin became suspicious.

“You…” Liu Ziwen, who was held tightly in Liu Zian’s arms, had some difficulty in articulating, and his words were intermittent.

“Brother…you tell me.”

Liu Zian finally lowered his head, put his ear close to Liu Ziwen’s blood-stained lips, and listened attentively.

“You…you have this poison…”

Liu Ziwen ignored Liu Zian’s innocent and wronged expression, staring fixedly into his eyes, his voice was dissociated, only Liu Zian could hear it.

Liu Zian lowered his head sadly, leaned into Liu Ziwen’s ear and said:
“It’s really not me, big brother, I left it all to you, and you forgot? You gave the poison to that person on the field yesterday…

“Brother, do you believe that the second brother can do it, the second brother will not let him go, the Liu family will be handed over to me for the time being, and I will get through it first, and I will avenge you in the future. Big brother, you also hold on, and you must not die, wait. You heal…”

While the two brothers hugged and whispered, finally a doctor from the hospital hurried over outside the arena.

Before Liu Zian let go of his embrace, Liu Ziwen, who had been staring at him all the time, had dark eyes, covered his bloody chest with both hands, slowly closed his eyes, and said a few words:
“Solution… medicine…”

Liu Zian glanced at Liu Ziwen, nodded calmly, moved away from the position next to Liu Ziwen, and let the doctors from the hospital and others rush forward to rescue the wounded.

The open space that was cleared by the surrounding crowd suddenly became noisy and busy.

Liu Zian stood up, looked down at the big brother’s blood all over his body, his eyes were a little sad and confused.

Seeing Liu Zilin slowly approaching beside him, Liu Zi sighed tiredly, “Third brother, I really…”

“Second brother, third brother believes in you!”

Liu Zilin suddenly took a step forward and led everyone from the Liu family to meet him. He grabbed Liu Zian’s wet red hands and nodded vigorously:
“Brother was attacked, now I can only rely on you, second brother, to take us through this hurdle…Second brother, don’t be too sad, cheer up, what happened today must be that person…”

Halfway through the speech, Liu Zilin immediately shut up when he noticed Liu Zian’s expression.

Sure enough, Liu Zian immediately took a step forward and passed him, “Lord Ouyang.”

Liu Zian enthusiastically stepped forward to welcome Ouyang Rong and the others who had left the case table and approached.

Ouyang Rong poked his hands behind his back and glanced at Liu Ziwen who was being carried on a stretcher by two doctors.

Liu Zian showed a smiling face, and said cautiously: “Master Ouyang, please take care of my elder brother. By the way, sir, can the public trial be suspended for a while…”

Ouyang Rong suddenly turned around and said, “I don’t care about it, um, it’s a pity.”

He glanced at the bloody wound on the dying Liu Ziwen, muttered something in his mouth, turned around, and left with his followers.

Liu Zian smiled stiffly, at this moment, Ouyang Rong who turned around and took a few steps suddenly stopped.

“By the way, I came here to inform Er Shao Liu of something.”

Xie Lingjiang, Yan Liulang, and Liu Ashan closely supported the young county magistrate in the middle and said casually without looking back:

“The public trial continues. Don’t miss the Liu family in the second half.”

Liu Zian: “But my elder brother…”

“Then Second Young Master Liu, who said that you must be the eldest brother? But he can’t get away with his crimes, even if he is injured, treat him well and don’t die.

“Also, do you think that this official is not pleasing to your three brothers, and also has personal grudges, so you have been targeting your three brothers all the time?”

Liu Zian said quickly: “Master Ouyang, the grass people dare not…”

Ouyang Rong immediately interrupted:
“I’m sorry, no, it’s not so boring, the judge has never been the target of the public trial from the beginning to the end.

“It’s the public trial of the entire Liu family!

“I only do one thing, disaster relief, flood control, and justice, and your Longcheng Liu family is the biggest obstacle to this matter, and this is the original sin.

“And the public trial of the whole county is to let the gentry, civilians and business gentry in the county see what crimes your Liu family has committed!”

The young county magistrate threw up his sleeves and left. Xie Lingjiang, Yan Liulang and other followers looked coldly at Liu Zian and the others who were standing still, then turned around and followed in the footsteps of the young county magistrate.

Only the onlookers who were eating melons and watching the fun were left, and the members of the Liu family who began to tremble in fear.

Ever since, not long after.

County-wide public trials continue to be held.

Afterwards, in the open-air courtroom on Luming Street, the sound of the gavel shook the hearts of everyone in the Liu family headed by Liu Zian, and fell again and again.

In the minds of the thousands of silent onlookers, something “bigger” than the Liu family before its collapse was rising from the ground without sound, forming a towering building in the blink of an eye.

Its name is justice.

……

Boom-!
The thin rustling raindrops hit the quaint and upturned eaves.

Only two days have passed since the county-wide public trial that was full of changes in the middle of the trial, but the ending made the people of Longcheng smile.

The world seems to be filled with the sound of rain hitting objects.

The rain washes away this long-standing ancient city on the corner of Jiangnan Road.

It seems to be washing something unclean from it.

This is an official building not far from the Longcheng County Government. Because it is very close to the Longcheng County Prison, it was remodeled and tidied up by the county government. sick prisoner.

At the entrance of a long corridor leading to the courtyard of the official residence in front, Ouyang Rong took Yan Liulang, Liu Ashan and others together to put away the oil-paper umbrella, shook it twice, and stepped into the long corridor.

“Liulang, have you found out who attacked Liu Ziwen?”

Ouyang Rong asked casually, two days after the public trial, he was busy dismembering the Liu family, so he forgot to follow up on some things.

Yan Liulang nodded and said: “This person is called Ah Mo, he is not from Longcheng. He escaped from the famine a few years ago and has settled in Longcheng County for a long time…”

“The key point.” Ouyang Rong said suddenly.

Yan Liulang nodded and said directly:

“The only intersection he has with the Liu family is when he first came to Longcheng County a few years ago, he was helped by the porridge shed of the old man of the Liu family.”

Ouyang Rong’s footsteps slowed down slightly, and he turned his head to look at the rain curtain outside the corridor, frowning slightly.

He thought of the old Cui Tou who had burned the tent for Liu’s family in the east storehouse, and the blurred old face that was burnt by the monster oil appeared in front of his eyes.

This old Cui Tou seems to be the same way, he was also helped by the porridge shed of the old man of the Liu family, and later found a new job in Longcheng County.

Fate in this world is sometimes never similar.

Outside the promenade, there is the sound of water flowing and rain hitting plantains that seems to envelop the world.

Ouyang Rong looked back, seeing that Yan Liulang hesitated to speak, he laughed and said: “If you have any news, tell me quickly, there is nothing you can’t say.”

Yan Liulang said truthfully: “I also feel that the Liu family is the most suspected suspect, but this dead man named Ah Mo actually… has some connection with the Ming Dynasty…”

“What connection.” Ouyang Rong didn’t seem surprised.

Yan Liulang frowned: “The disaster relief camp built by the Ming government on the outskirts of the city also helped him. He had been receiving relief food in the Frostfall Camp before.”

Ouyang Rong couldn’t help laughing, and asked:

“Liulang thinks it’s me who did it?”

“How is it possible, the Ming government won’t do this, and they don’t bother to do it.” Yan Liulang said seriously, paused and then muttered, “In case of an emergency, even if you want to do it, you won’t hide it from your subordinates.” .”

Ouyang Rong shook his head lightly, “The motives of the people behind the scenes are very interesting.”

Yan Liulang leaned forward and asked in a low voice, “Who does the Ming Palace think the real culprit is, Liu Zi’an, or…that Lord Wang?”

Ouyang Rong was silent, walked alone for a while, then turned around with a smile:
“Let’s go, first go see if Mr. Liu is dead, it’s better not to die so easily, it’s okay to hang on, otherwise it’s too cheap for him, um, it’s best to see me for two days A great gift for him, in addition…”

Ouyang Rong nodded sincerely:

“To be honest, I really want to give him justice. Master Liu’s life is also his life…”

Yan Liulang and the others were taken aback when they heard this, and hurriedly followed in the footsteps of the young county magistrate ahead.
