The old woman, Mrs. Yang Zhang, just wants justice. She doesn't want financial compensation. She just wants justice for her son. This is her only thought now.
The clerk could not help her, and even the patrol office did not dare to take over the case.
According to the law of Tang Dynasty, murderers are guilty of first-class crime and cannot be redeemed for silver, reconsideration, or execution. This means that those who commit intentional homicide cannot use money to redeem their guilt, lowering their level of guilt, and there is no need to discuss whether this person should be punished or not.
To kill, you can directly judge in court and arrange for execution immediately. Tang law is still very strict, but I don't want it to become a dead letter here.
Liu Shang rode a big insect and strolled all the way. He happened to come here. Curious, he came over. In his impression, this was fate. The old woman obviously had a grievance to complain, but she was blocked by someone.
Outside, he had already seen the bloody clothes on the old woman's hands.
"Infinite Heavenly Lord." He raised his hands and sang.
The old woman was still crying, and the clerk's eyes widened, looking at this strange combination, as if he had heard this combination somewhere.
"Excuse me, who are you? Do you have anything to do when you come to my patrol office?" The clerk asked with his hands raised. He did not dare to neglect. Just by looking at the person's posture, he knew that he was not an easy person.
Liu Shang didn't look at him, but walked straight towards the old woman Yang Zhang. She couldn't see her eyes and didn't know who was behind her. When Liu Shang walked to her, Liu Shang said softly and calmly: Old man,
When I saw you kneeling here, I was crying heartbrokenly, holding a bloody coat in my hand. However, I have encountered great injustice. I am the most vindictive person and specializes in all injustices in the world. Tell me boldly,
I'm here to help you redress your grievances.
This guy is really used to meddling in other people's business, because the more he meddles in other things, the more beneficial it will be to practice. So when he saw this old woman crying here, he knew that it was another fate, and he took the initiative to join in.
Go up.
Mrs. Yang Zhang could only hear but not see. When she heard that someone was willing to redress her grievances, she immediately kowtowed towards the place where Liu Shang had spoken.
The head knocking makes a thumping sound.
Seeing this, Liu Shang quickly helped the old woman up and comforted her: "Old man, there is no need for this. If you get up, if you have any grievances, say it boldly. Everything is decided by the poor."
The clerk at the door ignored him when he saw the visitor, and spoke like a poor man. Suddenly, his mind was shaken, and he thought of something. Could it be that the heavenly master is coming? Yes, it must be like this. Only the heavenly master can have such magical powers and surrender.
A tiger is a mount, and only a heavenly master would dare to say such unscrupulous words. Madam Yang Zhang, your life is good. Maybe your son's great revenge will be avenged.
"I have paid homage to the Heavenly Master and asked the Heavenly Master to wait for a moment. Now, I will ask the Master to come out and greet the Heavenly Master." After the clerk finished speaking, he walked a few steps and then turned to look at the old woman, wanting to explain.
After a few words, he thought that he was just a small official and there was no need, so he hurried in.
The old woman heard that he was a heavenly master. She had long known that there was a heavenly master with great supernatural powers in Chang'an. He was an immortal. She didn't expect that he would come to Qizhou. She was suddenly shocked. Her hands were held by the heavenly master.
, grabbed it tightly, and cried: Old woman Yang Zhang, pay homage to the immortal, pay homage to the heavenly master, and ask the immortal and heavenly master to avenge the old woman.
Liu Shang knew there was something going on, so he gently pulled out his hands held by the old woman, and said in a gentle tone: Old man, old man, don't worry, there is a poor man here, no matter what the grievance is, I will help you, please speak slowly
,Don’t worry, I….
"Where is the Celestial Master? Where is the Celestial Master?" Fu Zun had already led a group of subordinates to run out quickly, almost tripping over his own robes. It seemed that he was really anxious to pay homage to Liu Shang.
Liu Shang knew that this was not the place to talk, so he stopped talking.
"Yang Cheng, the head of the inspection office, is here to pay homage to the Celestial Master. I didn't expect the Celestial Master to arrive here, so I couldn't greet him from afar. I hope to forgive you for asking the Celestial Master to come into the house. I'm going to sweep the bed and wait for him." Yang Cheng looked at the sky.
Master, I saw a tiger next to the Heavenly Master, and I was even more in awe. He was worthy of being an immortal. He was indeed extraordinary.
Liu Shang nodded and naturally accepted the visit from the Palace Master and others. Then he took the old woman's hand and said, "Old man, come in with me. I will make the decision for you. I will elaborate on your grievances later."
"Since I arrived here in Qizhou, I have seen the people's faces gloomy and everyone walking in a hurry. What's going on? Chang'an is only a few hundred miles away from here. Isn't this the place where the emperor lies? Anyway, I'll take a good look at it.
Look at Qizhou, how unsightly it is to be governed by you." Liu Shang first threatened him. He is an immortal and a heavenly master personally appointed by His Majesty, so he naturally has this power and qualifications.
Yang Cheng glanced at Mrs. Yang Zhang and said with a wry smile: The Celestial Master didn't know something, and the official was really wronged. Please invite the Celestial Master in and let the official explain slowly. The Celestial Master will naturally know the reason.
It's not that the subordinate doesn't want to do anything, it's just that he is powerless, alas.
Liu Shang thought in his heart, you are the head of a state in charge of criminal proceedings, and you are only subordinate to the governor and the chief historian. How dare you say that you are powerless, huh, let's see what you say later.
The Taoist Palace is prosperous in Chang'an, and everyone believes in Liu Shang, but here there is nothing. They only know that there is such a powerful Celestial Master, but unfortunately not many people believe in it, and it is difficult to understand what kind of existence the Celestial Master is, so they believe in it.
The foundation is zero. If he wants to establish prestige in Qizhou, he must make some noise. But now that his magic power has only recovered a little bit, and the artifact bronze mirror is almost broken, he has to find another way.
He wanted to use the honorary title conferred on him by the imperial court to create opportunities to establish the foundation of faith in Qizhou, and to travel eastward to build the foundation of faith.
"As a person born in the world, I shouldn't care about worldly rights. However, the road is uneven and everyone tramples on it. I can't bear to see living beings being tortured, so I have to take action. I hope your answer will satisfy me, otherwise..." Liu Shang said meaningfully.
He looked at a stone sculpture in front of him.
Only seen.
With a bang, a bolt of thunder flew out from Liu Shang's hand.
Click.
The stone sculpture immediately fell into pieces and was shattered by a lightning strike from Liu Sang's palm.
This shocking scene shocked everyone. It was indeed an immortal method. No wonder the news from Chang'an said that the Celestial Master is an immortal who can cross the void and make thousands of troops fall to the ground with a wave of his hand.
Shengsheng successfully entered Chang'an and was conferred the title of Heavenly Master by His Majesty.
In fact, if they knew that the Celestial Master who looked incredible in their eyes had no magic power, he would be able to perform palm thunder. I don't know what they would think.
Seeing that the expected results were achieved, Liu Shang felt proud. Fortunately, these people are easy to fool. It seems that I need to establish the foundation of faith as soon as possible and increase my cultivation level so that I can show more miracles and let them believe in me.
"The Celestial Master is so powerful that the lower officials and others will not dare to hide anything. Please invite the Celestial Master to come in." Yang Cheng's back was dripping with cold sweat.
Don't talk about him, everyone present is like this.
Maybe Yang Zhang, who is already blind, would not feel this way. She just heard these people's respect for the Celestial Master and knew her son's hatred. Maybe she could ask the Celestial Master to help her son.
Redress grievances.
Someone from the patrol yamen has already gone to the state capital to inform the governor and chief ministers that Tianshi actually went to the patrol yamen.
The governor Bai Yanshun and Chang Shi looked at each other with confusion on their faces. What was going on?
So the two of them got up again and hurried towards the patrol yamen. They were really at a loss by this heavenly master. You said you were fine. If you don't come to the state capital, you go to other people's courts to handle criminal proceedings.
What does the yamen do?
Suddenly, they were startled and thought of some terrible things. Could it be that the Heavenly Master did it intentionally?
The two quickened their pace again. This time they did not bring many subordinates with them, but just the two of them went to meet him.
The big insect followed Liu Shang quietly, and no one dared to get close, because no one knew whether the tiger would suddenly attack and hurt people, so it was better to be careful.
Liu Shang sat down on the table with a carefree attitude, showing no sign of being a guest. However, the more casually he behaved, the more frightened these people became.
"Help the old lady sit down. I will listen to her first, and then you," Liu Sang ordered.
Mrs. Yang Zhang was helped to sit down, holding the blood coat in her hand, with a look of embarrassment, fear, and a little bit of expectation. Liu Chang didn't ask, but she didn't dare to say anything. Now that the Celestial Master asked, she immediately
All the blood, tears and grievances must be spoken out in full.
"Celestial Master, Immortal, this old woman has a great grievance. I ask Immortal Celestial Master to redress the grievances of this old woman..."
Liu Shang felt that the Celestial Master was the Celestial Master. What would you do if you added an immortal? But he couldn't care about this matter, so he had to let it go. Forget it, I don't care about you. When I have established a foundation in Qizhou, release me.
Daodao, you will understand it by then.
Mrs. Yang Zhang started to talk about her son slowly, as if telling a story, starting from when Yang Kai was sensible, to his journey of studying, to when he became famous in and outside the county and became a talented man, and then to how he was in his own country.
The deeds of serving oneself at the bedside.
Liu Shang understood that this was a very motivated and filial scholar. Well, not bad, not bad. He was a filial son and a talented man.
Mrs. Yang Zhang talked about her son with a look of kindness and pride on her face. She still remembered that day when her son was preparing to enter Chang'an. Because of the long journey, he had to say goodbye to his mother, knelt down to thank his mother for raising her, and expressed regret at parting.
Abandon.
She held her son's hand and silently put on new clothes for him, that is, the bloody clothes in her hand that were stained with her son's blood. She watched her son turn around step by step and walk away. She did not expect that this would mean goodbye forever.
Heaven and man are separated forever.
Liu Shang sighed silently when he thought of this scene. His mother was so worried after her son traveled thousands of miles.
Finally, Yang Zhang's tone changed and became stern when she mentioned that Yang Kai was beaten to death by Liu Ye.
Liu Shanghuo stood up and saw him saying with angry eyes and cold voice: There is such a vicious person in the world, he deserves to die.
The big insect suddenly stood up and let out a deep roar.
Everyone was shocked,
"The Heavenly Master calms down his anger, the Heavenly Master calms down his anger."
