Chapter 242: Angry at Huang Tongpan, a large number of plaintiffs

"is it?"

With a mocking smile, Wei Chengyi turned to Xie Yanzhi, clasped his fists and said seriously, "Sir, as far as I know, Huang Jingshu not only supported Shen Xiangyue in instigating murder, but also ran rampant in the village, bullying men and women.

This time he came to Datong County because he forced a commoner girl to be his concubine. She and her family refused to obey, and several people died. This matter caused a big stir in the city. Whether it is true or not, you will know it after checking. Huang Tongpan could not be unaware of it. If he really doesn't know, then I have to doubt whether he can continue to be the Tongpan. If he can ignore even his own son, how can we expect him to care about the people and their livelihood?"

Since they have decided to take action against them, how could they not be prepared at all?

The Huang family has always been arrogant. If you ask around about their trivial matters, you will find a lot of them. There is no need for a detailed investigation. No one talked about it before because they didn't dare to. But he doesn't have those concerns at all. He just wants to crush them completely!
“You you you… shut up!”

Unexpectedly, he was waiting for him here. Huang Tongpan could not hold back any longer. He pointed at him with trembling fingers and shouted angrily. If it were someone else, they would probably be scared, but Wei Chengyi said calmly: "Did I say something wrong? If I remember correctly, Mr. Huang has been in this position for 20 years, right? What achievements do you have? What have you really done for the people?"

"I, you..."

He never dreamed that one day he would be questioned like this in court. Huang Tongpan was so angry that he trembled all over. After a long while, he said with a wave of his sleeves: "How I behave as an official is under the supervision of the higher authorities. It is not your turn as an ordinary citizen to question me here."

He has memorized his appearance, and when this is over, he will make him regret coming into this world.

Wei Chengyi didn't care even though he saw the naked cruelty in his eyes. He continued calmly, "I am indeed just an ordinary citizen, but has Mr. Huang ever heard of the saying that a thousand-mile dam can be breached by an ant hole?"

"presumptuous···"

Is he threatening him?

Huang Tongpan shouted sternly, pretending to show off his authority, but Wei Chengyi would not tolerate him any longer: "You are the one who is so presumptuous! As a local official, you do not do practical things for the people, but instead indulge your family members to be tyrannical and do all kinds of evil. Do you deserve the official hat on your head?"

"Your Excellency the Prefect, I have been wronged!"

"I want to sue Huang Jingshu for forcibly taking my daughter as a concubine. When we refused, he had my wife and two sons beaten to death. My daughter felt guilty and hanged herself at home. I beg the prefect to help me!"

"Sir, I used to be a wealthy family in Dayuan County. A few years ago, Mr. Huang took a fancy to my medicinal field and wanted to buy it for 100 taels of silver. It was a full 80 mu of land, plus two hills. I didn't want to buy it, so he sent people to rush into my house and beat me to death. If I hadn't run fast, I would have... But my wife and children were all beaten to death. Sir, please help me!"

"Sir, the Huang family bullied others by taking advantage of their power, robbing my fertile land, and even beating my parents-in-law and husband to death..."

"Your Excellency the Prefect, I want to sue County Magistrate Yang, this dog official..."

As if to cooperate with him, Wei Chengyi had just finished speaking when a group of more than ten people took advantage of the bailiffs' inattention and rushed into the court. There were old and young, male and female. Everyone knelt on the ground and cried about the crimes of Huang Tongpan and his son or the Huang family, and asked Xie Yanzhi to judge for them. Huang Tongpan glared at those people with an unpleasant expression. Who gave them the courage to dare to come here?
Magistrate Yang, who was also sued, turned pale. Before this, no matter what Shen Xiangwan and the others said, he was at most charged with the crime of not parenting his children well. At most he would be reprimanded in public and have his salary reduced. But once these people who sued him showed up, the situation became different. If things went wrong, not only would he lose his official hat, but he might even lose his life.

"Punish the dog officials severely!" "Punish the dog officials severely!"

"Punish the dog officials severely!"

No one knew who shouted loudly, and the people watching outside were all startled, and then they all shouted at the same time. Their voices gradually became uniform and echoed throughout the court. They had undoubtedly offended everyone. Huang Tongpan, who had not been too worried at first, suddenly frowned, and Yang County Magistrate was so frightened that his legs went weak. Even the arrogant Huang Jingshu did not dare to say a word anymore.

"Good job!"

While no one was paying attention, Shen Xiangwan quietly gave Wei Chengyi a thumbs up. Obviously, these people were arranged by him.

"Don't make trouble."

Pretending to glare at her in annoyance, Wei Chengyi reached out and held her hand.

"bump!"

After a while, the gavel rang again, and the noisy court suddenly fell silent. Xie Yanzhi looked inside and outside the court and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, I promise here that no matter who they sue, I will make the decision for them. If you are worried, I can try the case in front of you later. However, please be quiet for now, and all the plaintiffs in the court please step aside, and let me deal with the case of Shen Xiangyue inciting murder first."

While it is important to take advantage of the situation to bring down Huang Tongpan and others, it is equally important to deal with Shen Xiangyue. Who dared to instigate the killer to assassinate their wife?

"Yes, thank you sir."

Hearing this, everyone thanked him in unison, tears rolling down their eyes. God has eyes, they have finally met the Justice. When they were bullied, they went to the county or prefectural government to report to the authorities, but they were ignored. When they were annoyed, they would have people beat them with boards. After several times, they dared not sue again. If the person who found them today had not repeatedly guaranteed that they would redress their grievances, they would not dare to come. Now it seems that they made the right decision to come, Chenzhou finally has a good official who can redress their grievances.

"grown ups···"

"President Huang, I will make a fair judgment on right and wrong. I will not wrongly accuse a good person, nor will I let any bad person go."

Huang Tongpan frowned and tried to explain himself, but Xie Yanzhi did not give him a chance and stated his position without hesitation. Looking at his determined face, Huang Tongpan felt a sudden panic in his heart. Did Xie Yanzhi really want to make an example of him and the entire Huang family?
Magistrate Yang was already trembling with fear. If his son had not supported him, he would have fallen to the ground.

"Come here, continue the execution!"

Ignoring them no longer, Xie Yanzhi turned his attention back to Huang Jingshu. It was only then that everyone realized that he was still hugging Shen Xiangyue tightly, and Shen Xiangyue was also nestling delicately in his arms. The two of them looked very affectionate.
