Tang Lu listened to the old man's words and said with a smile: "It's good to understand. The officialdom is not so smooth. We still need to balance the relationship so that the officials and the people can live in harmony and not cause big problems. In fact, the mute already understood what I meant.
, he is very obedient and knows how to cooperate with his performance. It seems that many people are deceived by the mute's acting skills. In addition to being unable to speak, the mute has other abilities than ordinary people. However, many people do not realize the mute's ability.
Probably people like those people who wear bright clothes and angry horses, but don't like those with physical disabilities. However, the mute is much smarter than those people. If it weren't for the mute's acting skills, the old man probably wouldn't have been deceived. He wouldn't be able to tell the truth.
Words. Right?"
"Yes." the old man said. He understood as soon as he heard this. His white beard and white eyebrows swayed as he spoke. He smiled and said, "No wonder! I don't think the blood would have flowed so much. If it had flowed so much,
"Many, I'm afraid the man is about to die. He's still alive and kicking after such a long time. There must be fraud. I'm just suspicious. After the adults explained it, I understood everything."
"You have a lot of knowledge. You also know the name of this mute, right? If you don't know the name, it will be difficult to write a judgment." Tang Lu said.
"He has a name, how can a wealthy family not have a name? His name is Di Daxiong, and his brother's name is Di Daying. They are two brothers," the old man said.
"So, what's your surname, old man?" Tang Lu asked, trying to be as humble as possible.
"The name is just a symbol, it doesn't mean anything. You can call me Lao Di," Lao Di said.
"Oh, no, you are Mr. Di. Mr. Di, what is your relationship with Di Daxiong?" Tang Lu asked.
"Strictly speaking, I am Di Daxiong's second uncle. I watched Di Daxiong grow up. He has been very kind since he was a child. Di Daying has a bit of a mind. I don't like scheming people. Such people are often not kind, so let
People are afraid, and they feel more relaxed and natural when they are with kind people, but if they are with vicious people, they feel more uncomfortable."
"I see! No wonder Mr. Di knows Di Daxiong so well! How should Mr. Di handle this situation?" Tang Lu asked.
"It's easy to say it's easy, it's complicated to say it's complicated. The easy way is to let Di Daying, his elder brother, recognize this younger brother. As long as he admits that he is his younger brother, then half of the family property will belong to him. If
If you don't admit it, you won't be able to share the family property. The key is for brothers to recognize each other. If they don't recognize each other, other problems will arise. For example, without brotherhood, property cannot be helped. If the name is not correct, the words will not go smoothly," Lao Di said.
.
"Then, if you want to solve this case, you must first summon Di Daying to come to the court for questioning." Tang Lu said.
"Exactly, he is the party and the defendant. He has to pay and the family property must be divided through him. If he admits that he is Di Daxiong's brother, it will be easy to handle. If he does not, it will be difficult."
"Okay, there is nothing difficult in the world. I'm just afraid that someone with a heart will send Di Daying to the court for questioning!" Tang Lu ordered.
Soon, Di Daying came.
He wears gorgeous clothes, is fat, has a greasy mouth, and speaks in a strange accent. I don't know where he was in Handan, but he didn't learn how to crawl back when he was a toddler.
"What's your name?" Tang Lu asked.
"The younger one's name is Di Daying." He said looking away.
"Do you know him?"
"I don't know." Di Daying replied. When Tang Lu pointed at the mute and asked him, he answered categorically.
In fact, he had seen the mute a long time ago. It was probably that the mute was complaining again. He was beaten and was already dying. Just as Lao Di said, Di Daying did not admit that Di Daxiong was his brother.
Tang Lu secretly admired Lao Di's judgment. In the face of interests, people's humanity is undoubtedly revealed. For the sake of small profits, they dare to risk beheading. Such desperate risks are commonplace and not surprising.
"You really don't know him?" Tang Lu asked, wanting to give him a chance.
"really."
"Okay, let's go!" Tang Lu said.
"really?"
"I never go back on my word. If I ask you to leave, you will leave. Not everyone will be beaten in court." Tang Lu said, "The obedient ones will not be beaten, and the disobedient ones will have their butts spread open."
After hearing this, Di Daying was not touched at all. He thought to himself, I just refuse to admit it so as not to lose the family property. I am not that stupid. If I am stupid, I am not a human being. After all, we must live in harmony with money. If you don't love money,
You can't have money. Without money, you can't let ghosts grind. Big money can make big ghosts grind. Small money can make little ghosts grind. Without money, you can't ask any ghost to grind. Instead, you will be ridiculed and tortured by ghosts.
.
He thanked him and left the hall.
Everyone looked at each other with nothing to do.
When Lao Di was present, Tang Lu asked him: "As expected, I don't admit it, but Mr. Di still has foresight and foresight."
"This is human nature. I have watched the two of them grow up, and I know who's character is the best. Just now, he clearly saw that the mute was present. He hesitated for a moment, and then pretended to be calm. He also saw that the old man was present, and he also pretended to be calm.
"I don't know Zuo, it shows that his conscience has long been fed to wild dogs, his heart is like a wolf's heart, his lungs are like a dog's lungs, nothing is good," Lao Di said.
"Then, the next step is to deal with him. I wonder if Di Lao understands the mute Di Daxiong's mute language? If he does, can he translate it, okay?" Tang Lu asked.
"I know a little bit. Strictly speaking, I have never learned dumb language professionally. I just spend time with Di Daxiong and understand his meaning better than others. If I help, I certainly can't refuse." Lao Di said.
"That's good. I want Di Daxiong to do something. Please ask Mr. Di to translate it for him so that he can understand what I mean." Tang Lu said.
"Okay, please!"
"Di Daxiong, your brother has occupied the property that should belong to you. I already know that. I will support you and get your property back. However, you have to cooperate with me to do something. I don't know if you are
Are you willing?" Tang Lu said.
Di Daxiong watched Tang Lu's mouth moving and didn't know what he was saying. However, he understood some meaning from the changes in his lips. Tang Lu made a gesture to Lao Di. Lao Di immediately understood and translated it for Di Daxiong.
, using gestures.
Di Daxiong nodded, meaning he understood. He knew very well that this was to ask him to do something and to help him get his property back.
"You go and beat your brother Di Daying on purpose. It's best to beat him to a bloody head, but you can't kill him. Is that clear? No matter what method you use to beat him, first ensure your safety. Don't do it for small reasons.
It's a big loss. If you hit him, no matter whether you take advantage of the loss or not, don't be reluctant to fight. Fight quickly and wait for the news later. You can only do it with peace of mind and let me make the decision for you." Tang Lu said.
Tang Lu looked at Lao Di and said, "Please Mr. Di translate it for him."
Mr. Di translated Tang Lu's meaning to Di Daxiong. Di Daxiong opened his eyes wide and looked at Tang Lu. Tang Lu was very serious and nodded, his eyes full of expectation of success.
Di Daxiong nodded and screamed, which meant that he understands and is relieved. Lao Di translated it and it really meant that. Sure enough, even those who have never learned mute can guess the meaning of mute. This is possible.
He is the best translator.
The mute Di Daxiong understood what Tang Lu meant and left the court. Also leaving with him was Lao Di.
Soon after Lao Di returned to the village, he heard that Di Daxiong had severely beaten Di Daying.
Everyone was watching the fun, but no one came forward to help.
One or two stepped forward to start a fight, but they were also on the wrong side. They were obviously on Di Daxiong's side. They took the opportunity to kick Di Daying. Di Daying was a hero, but it was difficult to defeat so many hands and feet. He obviously suffered a loss, but he didn't.
The way to reason is that I don't know who made the move. The fight started out as one-on-one, but ended up being many-on-one. He naturally broke his teeth and swallowed it.
The people who were arguing all looked at Di Daxiong. As long as Di Daxiong stopped fighting, they would stop. Di Daxiong had a good fighting style, specializing in hitting painful areas without damaging important organs. Also,
The ultimate goal is to break the head and bleed. Once it is achieved, retreat. The intensity of the fire must be accurately grasped, and the proportion must be properly grasped.
It was hard for Di Daying to swallow this breath. This Di Daxiong came prepared, and he actually had so many accomplices! It was a quarrel in name, but in fact it was a fight. This breath was really hard to swallow. He thought, this is an unhealthy trend and must be corrected. Originally,
There is a serious hatred against the rich in the village. Many people are jealous when they see money. They always spread rumors behind their backs and talk about right and wrong. They always hope that I will be unlucky, but I am not unlucky. This Di Daxiong who fights should be severely punished. It is best to let him
If he goes to jail or is sent to the frontier, as long as he leaves, the property will belong to me completely. He will most likely die in the frontier, so I will take over the property all to myself.
The best outcome is this. No matter what, we must severely punish this evil trend. Otherwise, we will not be able to hold our heads high in the village. When people see me or my family, they will look down on me. Even if I am rich, I will have no status.
No matter how rich a person is, as long as he has no needs, his status will always be high and there will be no difference.
When Di Daying arrived at the county government office, he beat the drum fiercely, as if he was facing a formidable enemy. Tang Lu came to the court, and it turned out that he was an acquaintance. However, he pretended not to know him, and went through the trial step by step, so that he could also experience the consequences of pride.
"Who is kneeling?" Tang Lu asked.
"Little Di Daying."
"Who are you suing?"
"Sue Di Daxiong."
"Who is Di Daxiong?"
"Di Daxiong is the younger brother."
"really?"
"Seriously, sir, Di Daxiong is the younger brother. The younger one is named Di Daying, and the younger brother is named Di Daxiong. Usually only brothers' names are so similar. They are both seniors, and he is two years younger than the younger one." Di Daying
explain.
"Not necessarily! Cousins are also named according to the character style. He is your cousin, so he can also be called Di Daxiong, right?"
"No, sir, Di Daxiong is indeed my younger brother, his biological brother!" Di Daying said.
"Okay, scribe, just write this down. Di Daying, I want to ask you, what are you suing your brother for?" Tang Lu asked.
"Sir, the younger one accused his younger brother of not respecting the etiquette and laws. The following offense is a treason and immorality. He even beat his own brother, ignored the etiquette and laws, ignored the clan, and did not care about family ties." Di Daying said.
"Di Daying, have you written the petition? If it is, submit it." Tang Lu asked.
"This, no, not written, your Excellency did not write." Di Daying said.
"If you didn't write a complaint, what kind of complaint would you file? Go back!" Tang Lu said.
Di Daying became anxious upon hearing this and said repeatedly: "Sir, it's not easy for me to come to court. I just want to file a complaint first and submit a supplementary complaint later. I wonder if your permission would be allowed?"
"In this case, it seems that you won't be able to show off your face when you go back, because you came to complain, but the result was not accurate, that is to say, the case was not filed. I'm really sorry. If this is the case, then I will help you. There is a book official in this county
, you can draft a petition. After you read it, it will be the same to sign on it. What do you think? After all, it is for your consideration. If you go back and find someone to write the petition, and see that you are so rich, they may not be willing to ask for money.
You have to give, and if you don't want to, forget it. You go your own way, and the people who wrote the complaint will continue to write for others. They don't interfere with each other, they each work on their own affairs, and each is well. You can't affect others, and others can't affect them either.
As for you, do you think this is true?" Tang Lu asked.
"That's true. Your Excellency really has an insight into people's sentiments and understands the situation here very well. Thank you, thank you so much! The younger one started talking, and the scribe can record it. After finishing it, the younger one will sign." Di Daying said.
.
Then, Di Daying described how Di Daxiong came to beat him. The clerk was writing it down beside him, like a dragon flying and a phoenix dancing. He wrote it quickly and handed it to Di Daying to sign. Di Daying read the complaint and found that there was nothing good about it.
The alteration was very complete. I signed and stamped it, and then handed the complaint to Tang Lu.
When Tang Lu saw this, he immediately thought of a plan.
He said softly: "If Di Daxiong is Di Daying's biological brother, he has committed the crime of disobedience. The crime is not a small crime and the punishment is not light. He must be severely punished. He will be sent to the frontier and never return. If he is not a relative,
My younger brother is just an ordinary outsider, so the punishment for fighting is not serious. Just reprimand and fine him some money." As if talking to himself or discussing with the master, the master touched the beard on his chin and nodded.
It meant that he agreed with Tang Lv's judgment and sentencing. However, these words were heard by Di Daying, who also had sensitive ears.
He immediately said: "My lord, my lord, the complaint was written just now, and the younger one also acknowledged it verbally. Now I would like to reiterate that Di Daxiong is the younger brother, the real younger brother. This is the only brother, there is no second brother.
, not a cousin, but a biological brother. Sir!"
When Tang Lu heard this, his eyebrows stood up and his eyes widened, as if anger was coming out of his eyes. He shouted sternly: "Di Daying, you are so brave! Since Di Daying is your biological brother, why don't you divide the family wealth?
Give it to him? How can your parents live peacefully in heaven? Is your promise like fart? What is your intention? Do you want to squeeze out Di Daxiong and then monopolize the property left by your father? Tell me, is that so? "
"My lord, my lord, it's not like this, it's not like this. Di Daying is not this kind of person. Di Daxiong's family property belongs to Di Daying. The younger one is waiting for him to get married. He has not gotten married yet, and the younger one is dividing the property."
How can I give it to him? What if someone deceives me?" Di Daying argued.
"That's nonsense. You are the biggest liar. You took his property and refused to give it to him, causing him to keep complaining. How do you explain it?" Tang Lu asked. This chapter has been completed!
