Ma Wenying was taken into the lobby of the government office.

In the middle of the lobby was the new magistrate Liu Yuanqiao. A man dressed as a master stood beside him and served him. On both sides were yamen runners holding water and fire sticks. The other party was the plaintiff's miserable. There were many people in the lobby crowded here to watch the fun, and they were crowded.

When Ma Wenying saw that there were dozens of people on the plaintiff's side, he was shocked. His father was the prefect of Laizhou, which made him bully the weak, domineering, and doing many evil things. He had no impression of him. Even he himself would not have thought that he would have so many enemies.

When Ma Wenying saw the yamen runners holding water and fire sticks on both sides, he knew all of them, and they were very familiar with them. Many of them helped him and often went to work or drink with him. But now, he didn't know more than half of them, especially those who were familiar with him, who were basically replaced, and even the head of the captain was changed.

Liu Yuanqiao was really cruel. He replaced more than half of the captains and runners in the government office.

As soon as Ma Wenying walked into the lobby, he was ordered to kneel down. When he reacted a little slowly, the yamen runner swept it with a water and fire stick and knelt down directly.

Liu Yuanqiao slapped the agglomeration and said, "Who is kneeling down? Let's sign up?"

Ma Wenying had no choice but to say: "The little man Ma Wenying is from Ye County, Laizhou." He reported his current household registration.

Liu Yongqiao said, "I have forty-one miserables here. I sued you for robbing people's wealth, bullying the people, robbing property, killing people's lives, hurting people's self-harm, robbing people's daughters, guarding shops, etc. What do you have to say?"

After Liu Yuanqiao finished speaking, his master put forty-one papers in front of Ma Wenying. Ma Wenying's mind was confused and he was frightened. Forty-one papers, how could he remember that he had done so many bad things and offended so many people, and he didn't know where to start for a while. Ma Wenying raised his head blankly, looked at the plaintiffs who glared at her on the other side, staring at his fiercely. He didn't remember when he had offended these people, and he knew his temper. In the past, he liked him, and took away what he liked. In the past, he had a father who was a prefect, so there was no problem, but now it's hard to say, and people came to get old accounts.

Seeing this situation, he wanted to escape unstoppably, which made him very scared. He said, "The villain doesn't know that the villain is innocent."

Ma Wenying made a fuss about his guilt, which was just an instinctive reaction. After hearing this, the people in the hall booed everywhere because his fame was not good. Everyone knew that he had done many shameful things. At this moment, people sued him and dared not admit it.

Liu Yuanqiao had nothing to be angry about, he said directly: "Successor's evidence..."

He saw that Ma Wenying was captured, he was also a little worried and afraid, so he changed his clothes, put on a little makeup, and mingled in the government office, secretly mingled in the crowd to peek. He saw that there was a major blood change on the government office, and he basically didn't recognize the people now, but the other party's judgment of Ma Wenying was quite formal.

In order to get rid of Ma Wenying, they actually found forty-one families. These people had proof and had evidence and were identified in court. Before Ma Wenying refused, Gao knew that Liu Yuanqiao was cruel and ruthless and wanted to kill him this time. He remembered the other party's methods and felt scared. Can a good end to go against someone like him? Thinking of this section, Gao immediately left quietly.

However, he wanted to leave, but he encountered a group of people blocking his way. This group of people was Liu Bu.

Liu Bu stood here surrounded by several subordinates and blocked his way.

Liu Bu smiled and said, "Isn't this Gaozhizhou? Why are you so happy and come here to study the case trial?"

Seeing the other party sneering and malicious, he coaxed his hands and said, "I am an old friend of the Ma family. I heard that the only son of the Ma family was tried here, so I came to see you."

Liu Bu said: "Since you are here, why bother to be outside? Why not come in and watch it in the hall."

Hei said, "No need! No need, I'll leave right away."

Liu Bu said, "I thought you were here to speak up for the Ma family. Since you are here, you should come to the court to say a few fair words." His fair words were very serious, and the irony was very obvious.

He quickly said, "No need! No need, I'll leave immediately, I'll leave immediately." He could have seen the fate of going against the Liu family, that is, he was destroyed and the family was uneasy, so how could he dare to go against the Liu family?

Now the Liu family’s father and son have become one of the best figures in Laizhou. The father is the prefect of Laizhou and the son is the governor of Jimo Camp. One is in charge of the official and the other is in charge of the soldiers. It can be said that he is a domineering place in the local area.

Liu Bu smiled and said, "You are here, why don't you sit for a while and see the results?"

Gao didn't dare to get entangled with the other party anymore. He laughed dryly, bowed his hand, and left. He still had to look at the results, but he basically knew the results.

The result was not unexpected, that was, forty-one miserables jointly sued Ma Wenying, who was found guilty and sentenced to beheading, reported to the Ministry of Justice, and asked for the beheading after Qiu Hou.

Liu Yuanqiao's verdict was quite fast and neat. When he announced that the Hou Qiu was beheading, the people in the hall applauded.

Among the dozens of people from the plaintiff, Liu Yuanqiao also announced that he had returned the stolen field shop. They even knelt down one after another and said, "Thank you, Master Qingtian, for upholding justice for us."

Liu Bu looked at his father's glorious trial, and he envied him very much. He said to Zheng Zining, who was dressed up in a men's clothing next to him: "This is the official, this is power."

Today, the Ma family, which was once glorious in Laizhou, was completely finished. Ma Wenying, the only one in the Ma family, did all the bad things, and was sentenced to beheaded by the prefect and showed it to the public, which was a perfect end.

Liu Bu also came here to watch the fun while he had nothing to do. He found that his father used a new master. His master was Song Xiance, but Song Xiance has now been appointed as the magistrate of Jimo County, so he reappointed a new master. As a prefect, it would be impossible without a master.

The new master is named Wang Wendong. He is a native and scholar. Because he was recommended, he was appreciated by Liu Yuanqiaoqiao and served as Liu Yuanqiao's master. He doesn't know how talented he is, but he probably won't be much worse for those who can get into the scholar. However, this person is all handsome and should be a handsome guy when he was young. Wang Wendong bowed to Liu Bu and said, "Young Master, the Lord of the Mansion will ask you to have a meal tonight."

Liu Bu said: "I understand, I will come back early."

Liu Bu actually had nothing to do here, so he just accompanied Zheng Zining to play nearby for a while and walked around for a few times. After all, they were just right here, and it was time to mix oil in honey, so they made an appointment to go out for fun together.

Liu Bu did not deliberately intimidate or intimidate Gao, but just saw him saying hello. They were a little unhappy with the Gao family, but now the other party is losing power, so there is no need for him to bother with him. His eyes should look forward to see a longer-term place.

He admired his father Liu Yuanqiao a little. He was a very capable and very fragile person. He could not even cure the famous officials under the former prefect, but Liu Yuanqiao had only been here for a few days and tamed the officials in his hands. At least now, these people are basically listening to his job arrangements in his duty room.

Liu Bu and Zheng Zining followed the side of Laizhou City to see the nearby scenic spots, but they were still a little unhappy because they saw refugees everywhere, begging everywhere, and the place was dirty and messy, and there were garbage everywhere outside the city, and there were some unclean bodies and blood stains in many places.

After all, at the beginning of the previous year, the most tragic battle of Laizhou was experienced in the Wuqiao Mutiny. You know, Laizhou was surrounded by rebels for six months, and a fierce tug-of-war broke out here. Although Laizhou Prefecture was not captured, even the prefect died in battle. It can be seen that the battle situation was tragic. Everything around the government office was leveled, and many places had not recovered.

Liu Bu said: "The place here is fertile. If you can grow sweet potatoes and potatoes, how good would it be?"

They still have time to plant the Jimo and Fushan areas, but it is really too late to plant it here. And now the weather has become colder and the land has become harder. It is not easy to turn over the soil.

Zheng Zining said: "This may not be until the flowers bloom next spring. Now it is too late to sow the soil."

Liu Bu said: "This winter will probably be particularly cold, and many people will not be able to survive this winter."

Now it is the Little Ice Age, and the weather is very cold. It starts to snow in October, and the northern canal sections begin to form troops. If it is a normal year, it will usually only freeze in December and January. However, in the cold weather of the Little Ice Age, it usually starts to freeze in November until March next year. This means that the Grand Canal, the main artery of the imperial court, was frozen for nearly five months.

This is the largest blood transfusion vessel of the Ming Dynasty court, and it has been frozen for nearly five months. This has a very fatal impact on the Ming Dynasty court.

The grain in the capital and even the Jiubian are transported through the Grand Canal of Beijing and Hangzhou, which means that after the second half of the year, grain prices will begin to soar, and military rations transported to various places will begin to be delinquent.
