Chapter 117 has grievances
Mobilizing the people to destroy locusts was the first fire burned by Ma Mingfeng's new official in office. However, what he did not expect was that his fire was so successful. Because of the matter of destroying locusts, he won the hearts of the people. It was precisely because of him that the people survived this disaster...
In fact, just as the matter of extermination of locusts was in full swing, Ma Mingfeng set off the second fire for the new official to take office, retrieving many old cases, releasing the suspects who were wronged and wronged, and at the same time restarting the drums of injustice outside Kaifeng Prefecture, allowing the people to beat the drums of injustice.
Ma Mingfeng knew that in the local area, the biggest public resentment was the corrupt officials, powerful and evil gentry. These people bully others and bully good, so that justice could not be promoted. If it was not resolved in time, big problems would sooner or later, especially when the thieves were about to invade, all internal worries must be eliminated before they could fight against external troubles with all their strength.
However, to Ma Mingfeng's disappointment, the announcement was released for two days, but no people came to beat the drum and complained about the grievances. So Li Jing, the official of the imperial court, said: "The officials in Kaifeng Prefecture are in Qingming, and none of the people are wronged and wronged. This is all your achievements."
Ma Mingfeng did not believe it. He knew that these clerks were deceiving their superiors and concealing their subordinates, and it was absolutely impossible for them to be wronged. However, he did not point it out, but he agreed with Li Jing's words, laughed a few times, and the matter was revealed.
However, one day a few days later, Ma Mingfeng took Jiang Pingjie and Yu Zhenlong to a private visit on the excuse of visiting Master Gongshi.
When he came to Kangzhuang Village, Xiangfu County, he saw a farmer holding a funeral. The family of the deceased was full of grief and anger, but the crying was very depressing.
Ma Mingfeng felt it was very strange and hurriedly asked Jiang Pingjie to ask what happened.
However, the family of the deceased was very alert to them, saying that the deceased died of illness. Because he was very young, his parents were sent to the black-haired man, so he was so sad that he couldn't help himself.
Not far outside the Dead Family, several people gathered together, shook their heads and sighed, and talked softly about something, but when Ma Mingfeng and others came over, all of them kept silent, and then turned around and left.
Ma Mingfeng felt even more surprised when he saw this scene. He knew that this matter was definitely not that simple, so he followed an old man, because Ma Mingfeng clearly saw that when those people gathered together before, the old man looked the most excited.
Ma Mingfeng followed the old man to a house not far away, walked in and asked the old man about what had happened. The old man refused to tell at first, but he couldn't resist the inquiries of Ma Mingfeng and others, and finally gritted his teeth and told the matter.
It turned out that the old man's surname was Che, and he was in love with the deceased's father. The deceased's name was Kang Yong, a man from the Manzhuang. He was twenty years old and handsome. His parents were both loyal and hardworking. In addition, the family lived a pretty good life.
Kang Yong's parents had only one son. Because his son was at the age of marriage, he naturally planned to find a marriage for him. Later, he searched and found a family named Shao in the neighboring village. He made a marriage with the eldest daughter of the Shao family and got married not long after.
The daughter of the Shao family is very beautiful and honest and honest. Kang Yong's parents saw it and were happy in their hearts. However, they didn't know that everything about this woman was disguised. Before she got engaged, she had an affair with a rascal named Li He in the village. Later, she got married. Although she was honest for a few days, she couldn't bear it. Later, she met occasionally at the market. The two of them rekindled their old love. First, they went to the rascal's house, and then took advantage of Kang Yong's time to mess around at home, but unexpectedly they were discovered by Kang Yong's father.
After learning that her scandal was discovered by her father-in-law, the woman surnamed Shao complained to Kang Yong who came back from the field, saying that her father-in-law wanted to molest her while no one at home, and strongly demanded to move.
Although Kang Yong didn't believe it, he couldn't resist his wife and moved to a house at the east end of the village.
From then on, Kang Yong went to work in the fields, and the woman surnamed Shao hangs out with the raspy Li He at home because she has no parents-in-law ever got upset, and she lives a romantic and happy life every day.
It happened that Kang Yong went to work on the field this day. In the middle, because the hoe was broken, he wanted to go home to change a hoe, but he didn't want to break it.
Only then did Kang Yong understand the whole story, and he couldn't help but start from his heart, waving the hoe and hitting the thunder.
However, the woman surnamed Shao stood in front of her and did not resist, asking Kang Yong to kill her. Kang Yong thought of the previous love time with her, and couldn't help but feel soft. He sighed and put down the hoe handle. However, Li He picked up a half brick and hit the back of Kang Yong's head. Kang Yong struggled a few times and died in anger.
The woman surnamed Shao was very scared when she saw that the person died, but Li He told her not to be afraid, because his uncle was in charge of the torture room in the prefect's office. Even if he killed someone, he would not be executed. What's more, no one saw the murder, and he just said that he was killed by a fall. He had his uncle in charge of everything.
The woman surnamed Shao then calmed down. After Li He left, she cried to her parents-in-law's house and told them that Kang Yong accidentally fell to death.
When the parents-in-law heard the news, they were surprised and quickly called someone to come to Kang Yong's home. Seeing that Kang Yong died tragically, but the injuries suffered did not seem to be a death from a fall. So they carefully asked the woman surnamed Shao how her son died.
The woman surnamed Shao insisted that she had fallen to death. Seeing that there was no sadness on her face, Old Man Kang remembered the scandal that had broken her before, so he wrote a complaint from the Central People and sued the county government.
However, unexpectedly, after receiving the complaint, the county government sent a coroner to a corpse and then concluded that the person was killed by a fall, and that the coroner deliberately destroyed the body in an abnormal manner, forcing the Kang family to pay the money and finally stopped.
After throwing the body, the coroner returned to the county government office. The Kang family spent money and lost the case. The woman surnamed Shao and Li He and Li He fought with Li He even more and more fiercely despite the filial piety. The old lady was so angry that she was bedridden. Old Man Kang gritted her teeth and sued the complaint to the prefect's office, but unexpectedly announced the upholding of the original verdict and sent someone to tell his nephew Li He about the matter.
After receiving the news, Li He was very angry that the Kang family had been rising many times. He directly took the arm of a woman named Shao and came to Kang Yong's house and told them that he did the thing, but he had people in the county and the prefectural office. If he sued again, the Kang family would lose all their money and lose the case. At the same time, he tortured Kang Yong's body a hundred times, making him unable to die.
The Kang family didn't believe it. Li He waved his hand and a few gangsters came from behind. They first taught a lesson to several young people who didn't like this, and then pushed Old Man Kang to the ground and kicked him hard. Then they hugged the woman named Shao and left.
Old Man Kang knew that his wife could not be kept and Li He could not afford to offend him. Not only did he need to take care of his wife who was sick in bed, but he also felt guilty for the young man who was beaten for his family affairs. At the same time, he was afraid that his son's body would be tortured again. He had no choice but to forcibly endure the great grievances and first mourn for his son.
After hearing this, Ma Mingfeng was so angry that he trembled all over. He revealed his identity and told Old Man Che that he would write another copy of the letter and hand it over to his own hands. Then he asked Yu Zhenlong to go to the house where the Kang family's daughter-in-law was located to investigate whether the woman was really having an affair with someone? At the same time, he ordered Jiang Pingjie to ride a fast horse back to Kaifeng Mansion immediately, and bring a group of guards and a coroner Zhang Jiu to Kangzhuang Village.
Coroner Lao Jiu is a very upright person and is incompatible with the people in the torture room. This is what Ma Mingfeng knew inadvertently. Then Ma Mingfeng found a way to take care of him so that he could use it in the future, but he did not expect to use it so soon.
Old Man Che did not expect that it was the prefect who arrived, so he quickly fell to the ground to avenge his friends, and was willing to testify for Old Man Kang.
Ma Mingfeng nodded and waited for news at the old man Che's house.
Old Man Che immediately went to find Old Man Kang. Soon, Old Man Kang came to the old man's house with paper in his hand. He immediately knelt down at Ma Mingfeng, crying heartbrokenly, and shouting for justice to Ma Mingfeng.
