The first round of pretentious court hearings was over. The heads of the Cui family, the Feng family, the He family and other aristocratic families were all willing to "give half of their family property to help refugees outside the city" in exchange for their families continuing to live in An.

In the end, even Zhao Laiyu, a member of the Anling Zhao family, had no choice but to nod to Ling's rights and interests.

In fact, Zhao Hongrun punished him more severely than other families, a full 70%!

After all, the Zhao family's sin of short-changing the county warehouse must also be taken into account.

Compared with the Zhao family's punishment of "70% of the family property", the heads of the aristocratic families outside the hall suddenly felt that their "50%" was not so unacceptable.

They have never thought about it, whether it is 50% or 70%, isn't it all proposed by people from Zhao Hongrun's side? Who will know clearly how long the Zhao family will really be fined?

But it's not their fault. After all, as far as they know, Zhao Laiyu was squeezed out of the clan by Zhao Hongrun and had to leave Daliang to come to Anling to join his three sons. Therefore, of course, there must be something between Zhao Hongrun and Zhao Laiyu.

With such irresolvable grievances, how could they have thought that the old man and the young man had secretly resolved their feud long ago and were working together to harm their group of nobles who used to be headed by the Anling Wang family.

Under the clear banner of Zhao Laiyu and others, the family heads who were subsequently tried one after another hurriedly offered to hand over half of their family property, hoping to redeem their foolish assistance.

The Anling Wang family was charged with inciting people to rebel.

The unfounded accusation of "rebellion" of the Anling Wang family is being implemented bit by bit and becoming a fact.

This court hearing lasted for about an hour, and the result satisfied all parties.

The county magistrate Yan Yong got his wish and finally became a real county magistrate; while Zhao Hongrun got a large sum of money from these nobles; and those nobles finally no longer had to worry about being betrayed by Zhao Hongrun.

The Shang Shui Army under His Royal Highness Prince Su was urged to move away from Anling.

After these several court hearings, the real drama finally came, that is, the verdict against the Anling Wang family, as well as the Sihou family and other families who were married to the former.

"Bring someone to commit the crime!"

As Yan Yong slapped the alarm again, Zongwei Zhou Pu led a group of Shang Shui soldiers who acted as jailers, and brought Wang Zan, Wang Xun, Wang Lun and other men from the Anling Wang family, young and old, to

In the hall, there was also Wang Ting from the Wang family in Zhengcheng.

It has to be said that after being locked up in the county jail for a night, the Wang family, old and young, were all worried. After all, they also saw Zhao Chengxun, Zhao Chengcan, Zhao Chengtang and other children of the Zhao family in the prison.

During this period, the Third Young Master Wang Chen also talked privately with Zhao Chengxun and several other former friends. After learning that these friends had been imprisoned here for three or four days, the third Young Master Wang Wang Chen, who used to be flamboyant and domineering, now

Like an ostrich, a pair of eyes full of fear.

In his opinion, if Zhao Hongrun had to severely punish Zhao Chengxun, Zhao Chengcan, Zhao Chengtang and other members of the Zhao family, then what would the Wang family mean?

Among these people, Wang Ting was the only one who showed no fear on his face and just stared at Zhao Hongrun with resentful eyes.

"Kneel down!"

Yan Yong was stunned.

At this moment, everyone in the Anling Wang family, who had become frightened, fell to their knees with a bang. Only Wang Ting stared at Yan Yong in shock and anger, and cursed: "Who do you think you are? You actually want me to kneel to you?"

Yan Yong snorted coldly when he heard this, slapped the gavel and shouted: "Come here, fight!"

"Who dares?!"

Seeing the Shang Shui troops on the left and right marching out, Wang Ting's face suddenly turned red. He looked around and said coldly: "Even the East Palace wants to address me as 'uncle'. Who dares to torture me?"

I have to say that Wang Ting's identity is a bit scary. He is the biological brother of Queen Wang, the uncle of the Prince of the East Palace, and the brother-in-law of the monarch of Wei. This series of noble identities is not much inferior to that of Zhao Hongrun.

Because of this, Yan Yong secretly drummed in his heart and couldn't help but flinch.

At this moment, Zhao Hongrun was seen carelessly arranging the folds on his clothes, and said lightly: "Contempting the national law and contempt of the court, this crime is unpardonable! ... Beat him until he kneels!"

Seeing Zhao Hongrun speaking in person, Yan Yong dared to hesitate. He raised his hand and pointed at Yan Yong and shouted: "Hit!"

In fact, even if he didn't give the order, the Shang navy on the left and right would have already marched towards Wang Ting.

Seeing this, Wang Ting was filled with anger and cursed at Zhao Hongrun: "Zhao Run! How dare you?!"

It's a pity that Zhao Hongrun didn't take his threat seriously at all.

After all, in the final analysis, Zhao Hongrun didn't take the Wang family of Zhengcheng seriously. The only person who made him a little afraid was the Wang family who was now revered as the queen.

As for Wang Ming alone, Zhao Hongrun didn't care even more.

Threaten him, the Su King?

Why did he ask Zhao Hongrun to give an explanation on the spot?

Is it because Zhao Hongrun is too easy to talk to?

Zhao Hongrun looked at Wang Ting coldly. Even though he had decided to listen to Zhao Laiyu's advice this time and did not intend to completely break up with the Zhengcheng Wang family, he felt that it was necessary to let the Zhengcheng Wang family, who felt good about himself, get involved.

One thing is clear: Even if you, the Wang family of Zhengcheng, are tigers, you still lie down like dogs in front of me, Zhao Hongrun! Otherwise, I will knock out the teeth in your mouth one by one.

!

With a bang, Wang Ting was pushed to the ground and beaten ten times.

"Are you convinced?" Zhao Hongrun looked down at Wang Ting who was pushed to the ground.

"Stop dreaming!" Wang Ting gritted his teeth and cursed ferociously. This well-educated nobleman finally showed his ferocious side.

"I like your strong backbone." Zhao Hongrun smiled slightly when he heard this, but he turned around and said to the Shang Shui soldiers who were executing the execution: "Beat him until he is convinced!"

"Yes!" Several soldiers nodded and continued to execute the punishment with one stick after another.

At this scene, the nobles who were watching outside the hall were filled with horror. They were secretly glad that they had just learned the current affairs. Otherwise, wouldn't they be the ones suffering at this moment?

Among the crowd, only Zhao Laiyu frowned calmly.

After all, the news from Daliang has not yet come back. He does not support Zhao Hongrun's execution of Wang Ming, let alone beating him to death like this. What if he is beaten to death? Even Zhao Hongrun may not be able to escape.

be blamed.

However, Zhao Laiyu obviously overestimated Wang Ting's courage, and it didn't take long for the latter to beg for mercy.

No wonder, how could such a pampered and pampered nobleman withstand the merciless beatings of Shang Shui soldiers?

"Stop, stop, I'm convinced, I'm convinced..." Wang Ting screamed and begged for mercy.

Zhao Hongrun shook his head pretending to be disappointed, and joked: "It seems that your backbone is not as strong as you and I thought."

"..." Wang Ting remained silent, only looking at Zhao Hongrun with hatred and hostility, but the latter didn't take it seriously at all.

Because if the investigation continues, Wang Ting will most likely be beaten to death on the spot, which is not in Zhao Hongrun's interests.

At this time, breaking up with the Wang family of Zhengcheng and provoking the Queen Wang family would not be of any benefit to Zhao Hongrun. It would be enough to earn enough face.

Accept as soon as you see fit.

After Wang Ting, everyone in the Anling Wang family was also beaten with ten sticks. Because of Wang Ting's lesson, none of them dared to say a word and endured it silently.

After that, Yan Yong summoned the suffering masters, namely the Gong family's Gong Ying and Gong Fu brothers.

The two brothers had their younger brother killed by Wang Chen and others, and were lynched by Wang Chen indiscriminately. They were beaten so badly that they limped into the hall and even kneeling down seemed very difficult.

But seeing all the boys in Wang's primary school being beaten and wailing, they felt happy in their hearts, and their hatred for Yan Yong also decreased a lot.

After all, Zhao Hongrun had already talked to them and told them the truth, letting them understand that Yan Yong, the magistrate of Anling County, was actually just a puppet.

"Yanling Gongying, Gongfu, come to see the magistrate of Anling County."

"Hmm."

Yan Yong nodded, looked at Gong Ying, and the two Gongfu brothers said: "I will tell you the grievances of your two brothers, and His Highness King Su and I will make the decision for you."

Hearing this, Gong Ying clasped his fists gratefully, then pointed at Wang Chen and said angrily: "This is the evil thief who killed our young brothers... My young brother went up the mountain with four servants to play that day.

Hunting, but ended up encountering these evil thieves..."

The story he told was very similar to what Zhao Hongrun learned from Yanling County Magistrate Peng Yi. It was simply that Wang Chen was unhappy with the deceased tribute boy.

Just like the saying, "Boots never care about the feelings of ants", how could Wang Chen care about Gongyou and other Chu people? In his opinion, these Chu people are untouchables who are even lower than untouchables. They came to Wei

The country's untouchables begging for food.

Although the Gong family were Chu people who defected to the Wei state, they were also nobles after all. How could they be willing to be insulted by Wang Chen for no reason? So the two sides disagreed, and Wang Chen, who was furious, called his servants to take action.

, killed Gongyou and others.

Typical aristocratic disregard for human life.

"Wang Chen, can you plead guilty?"

Yan Yong looked at Wang Chen and asked coldly.

I saw Wang Chen, the usually domineering Third Young Master, now trembling like a sieve, speechless and speechless.

Seeing this, Yan Yong said calmly: "According to the laws of Wei Dynasty, those who kill must pay for their lives..."

As soon as he heard the word "pay for life", Wang Chen collapsed to the ground with a thump, his mind was in a state of confusion, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

"...Furthermore, the Wang family's loss of county warehouses is not allowed by national law..."

Speaking of this, Zongwei Weijiao handed Yan Yong the booklet about the Anling Wang family's crimes of corruption and perversion of the law that Yan Yong had privately recorded, and the latter directly threw it at the feet of Wang Zan, the head of the Wang family, and used

A kind of smooth mouth as if a great revenge has been avenged

Kissing, he said coldly: "...Jian Wang has done many evil things in Anling in the past, and I will give the following sentence: Wang Chen, the first offender, committed several major crimes, and was escorted to the Daliang Criminal Department to be executed after the fall. The Wang family is a member,

The family property was seized, the army was confiscated and distributed..."

At this time, outside the hall, Zongwei Lu Mu had dismissed the noble family heads who were watching.

Seeing this, Yan Yong changed his tone to a slightly sarcastic tone and said lightly: "Since you are a member of the public family, I will allow you a 'gold ransom' according to custom..."

Gold ransom, as the name suggests, is to use money to settle lawsuits. This is an unwritten privilege enjoyed by the princes and nobles of Wei.

To a certain extent, this move trampled on national law, but it is undeniable that even Zhao Hongrun could not reverse this, and it was the rights that the nobles of Wei had always enjoyed.

After hearing this, the Wang family felt as if they had survived a disaster, especially Wang Chen.

As for Wang Ting, after being stunned for a moment, his eyes filled with shock and anger, and he glanced at Zhao Hongrun with a complicated expression.
