Eighteen miles north of Chengdu City, at the beginning of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, it was originally a Zhangjia Village with twenty or thirty families living together. However, Shu was peaceful and prosperous. Over time, twenty or thirty households became more than one hundred households, and customers moved in. Although there was no surplus plain land nearby, tea could be grown on several hills. Gradually, more than ten customers planted tea trees here, and the scale was not the largest at first. However, as the habit of drinking tea became popular among the Zhufo Temples in Chengdu, it gradually spread to two capitals such as Chang'an and Luoyang. In recent years, tea has become more and more popular, which has inspired them.

Therefore, the three families of Zhou, Sun and Peng not only brought their relatives and relatives to take care of the tea garden, but also recruited many domestic households without land as servants, and lived a prosperous life.

Because the three families are quite good at being human, they are also quite generous to the villagers of Zhangjia Village near them. In addition to helping with the busy farming, they help buy oxen, borrow money to help doctors and seek medicine, and even ask people in the village to teach and read. Both sides have been at peace. So, when the Li family came forward to fight for land, the villagers who benefited from Zhangjia Village also said justice. However, the Li family is deeply rooted in the deep-rooted hands and eyes, but the slaves are like wolves and tigers, so they can only dare not speak out.

No one expected that the Li family not only occupied the tea garden, but then sued these customers again. But when the Li family sent money from house to house, they went door to house to force and induce money, and went to the village center to directly threaten and induce people, and repeatedly advocated the new court policy to the residents and favored the customers, they were moved without realizing it.

The day the case was on trial was cold, but the grass pavilion had already been crowded with one or two hundred people watching. Seeing a group of twenty or thirty people surrounded by seven or eight riders slowly coming from the path, the crowd immediately became slightly turbulent. Fortunately, the county party committee had sent Zaoli officers to suppress the situation, and the scene was only in chaos for a while and the order was restored. When it was discovered that the young man in the leadership was wearing a green official robe and was graceful, someone immediately started to whisper to each other.

"The young mansions are all green official robes, this must be Du Ming mansion."

"This Ming Gong is so young"

"My grandson is so big... it's really incomparable."

Du Shiyi had been allowed to attend the audience in Wannian County, but at that time there were only a limited number of people coming in, and they were easily suppressed in the county party committee, but now they were in the open air, and the Zao Li was under great pressure. Fortunately, Du Shiyi specially sent Chibi and several servants to guide him. As long as they listened to the assignment, they saw Du Shiyi sitting cross-legged in the middle of the grass pavilion, looking leisurely. They breathed a sigh of relief without realizing it, and then they stretched their necks like ordinary people to see what the drama was today.

"Please Li Tianluo."

Li Tianluo had already arrived. He confirmed to his confidant slave that the village chief of Zhangjia Village and the people he had bribed for a lot of money, and the other villagers also benefited from their own family. He responded without fear. Although he was not an official, the Li family was a householder. Even after his father entered the officialdom, he was just a county magistrate of Shangqiu and a county magistrate of the small county in Xidao, Jiangnan. They were not important places. They were all appointed for eight years. They were candidates for the other thirty years and have passed away. They are now dead, but they cannot be equated with ordinary people. So he just bowed deeply in front of Du Shiyi and straightened his waist.

In contrast, the men of the thirteen clients including Peng Hai, Sun Nian, Zhou Jia were not so lucky. They were all ordinary people, leaving their hometowns to live in Chengdu for more than ten years, or at least two or three years. Years of work left deep wrinkles on their faces like knives. When they saw Li Tianluo, although most of them showed unforgettable hatred, and some even pinched their fists to make a crack, under the leadership of Peng Hai, who was over 50 years old, everyone still held back and knelt down on their knees and kowtowed to Du Shiyi.

"Ming Gong, what the Li family has reported is nonsense. We have worked hard to cultivate this mountain and plant tea trees. It is unfair..."

"Stop" Before Peng Hai Chen Qing, Li Tianluo suddenly turned around and shouted angrily, "You still dare to deny it? I thought that this place was owned by the Li family at the time. Lending it to you was just to pity you left your hometown, and the old and young people could not be servants, so even the collection of rent was just a symbolic way to give you a place to live. Who knew that you were ungrateful and saw that the production of tea gardens was increasing, and you actually wanted to occupy my Li family's fields into your own industry."

Speaking of this, Li Tianluo bowed to the surroundings and said in a deep voice: "What I said is true or false. This Zhangjia Village can be used as a testimony, and the villagers above and below can also be used as a testimony."

Du Shiyi followed Li Tianluo's gaze and looked at the middle-aged village chief. It seemed that he had become the focus of his eyes. The village chief moved two steps away from the crowd, then lowered his head and said, "Report to Gong Ming, what Mr. Li said...everything is true. This mountain was not unowned in his early years, but actually... it was from the Li family."

Almost in an instant, a young young man kneeling behind Peng Hai finally jumped up suddenly: "You... you talk nonsense about Zhang Dascar, you pat your conscience. Who told us that this mountain is ownerless and useless to abandon it, and we can use it for our own use? Who used the money we collected to buy oxen? This is what Zhou Gu has from so many land in the village? Who is his wife who came to us for help when she was about to give birth? My mother went to take over the child personally? You... you are a wolf-hearted thing."

The shouting was so loud that it seemed to be a whine of a beast in the ears of people. The village, who was called Zhang Dascar, was retreating step by step under the fierce gaze of the young man. He felt his throat choking and could not even speak a word. However, Li Tianluo, who was startled at first, immediately woke up. Knowing that if he was scared away at this moment, there would be no trouble for Du Shiyi. He immediately shouted: "Don't be arrogant, this is the court, it's not your turn to roar with you all, since he wants you to speak fairly, you might as well stand up and talk about what's going on with these 800 acres of mountainous land."

Li Tianluo stared at the guys who took the most money in the crowd with cold eyes. Sure enough, he couldn't help but feel pressure from him. Finally, someone stood up timidly, but said humbly: "This mountain is from the Li family...

There was such a person who started, and other people in groups of people stood up to testify for the Li family. Although the young man was already full of grief and anger, the customers knew that this time was not useful, so they dragged him back and shook their heads at him.

Although most of the villagers in Zhangjia Village came today, there were hundreds of people, and only more than ten people came out to speak for the Li family, the others remained silent, and no one even said a good thing for them. Therefore, when the surroundings fell into silence again, thinking that so many years of neighbors had received such rewards, everyone suddenly felt sad.

"This mountain is not owned by the Li family, this mountain is owned by Peng Abo and the others."

This sudden and clear sound broke the unspeakable silence. Everyone looked in the sound, but they saw a silence boy about ten years old. In front of everyone, he was not afraid at all and said with his head raised: "I saw the Li family take money to send it to people from house to house, and let everyone testify that the mountains belong to the Li family."

As soon as this was said, it was like pouring a pot of boiling oil on a hot pan. Although Li Tianluo glared at people, some people in the crowd scolded the boy for talking nonsense, and some people came forward to pull the person away. However, at this moment, Du Shiyi, who had been silently listening to the plaintiff and defendant, suddenly said, "Come on, bring this boy to me."

The man who pulled the boy heard this, he was in a dilemma. When he saw a burly follower standing beside Du Shiyi strode in front of him, he quickly let go of his hand and slipped back to the crowd. When the drooping boy followed Chibi to Du Shiyi, he knelt down and saluted respectfully, and stood up, but he also took a bold look at Du Shiyi's face. Facing such a bold boy, Du Shiyi couldn't help but smile, and then asked with a kind look: "You said you saw the Li family give money to the people in Zhangjia Village, what's the specific inside story?"

Li Tianluo was so angry that Cheng Yaojin suddenly came out. Without thinking, he shouted angrily: "How old is this child? How can Du Ming's mansion listen to his nonsense?"

"Although I am young, I know the reason why a drop of water should be repaid with a spring of water." The boy retorted loudly, but did not look back at Li Tianluo's face so angry that he was so angry that he raised his hand seriously and bowed to Du Shiyi.

"Du Ming Mansion, both the boy's parents were from Zhangjia Village. Because a literate man among Mr. Peng and others taught in the village that year, he had known many words in recent years and had read the "Analects of Confucius". Although he didn't understand the great principles very well, the boy remembered that the Master said that he would repay his grievances with righteousness and virtue. Mr. Peng and his friends lived next to the villagers for more than ten years. The help of the villagers cannot be measured by money, and they have received their favors. Now they are helping others to slander them. This is not what a gentleman does."

Du Shiyi was greatly appreciated by this and immediately laughed. Although he had made a lot of preparations, these things were not as good as the straightforward words of a boy, so people were happy. So many villagers who were favored could not even understand the truth of a child.

As if it was because of the boy's words that finally touched people, someone in the crowd suddenly stood up and said, "Ming Gong Mingjian, the slaves of the Li family brought three guan of money, and my wife accepted it without knowing the level. This mountain is not from the Li family, it was originally a land without a master."

"The Li family also gave my family two stale money... I will send it to Ming Gong when I turned around. This mountain was indeed cultivated and maintained by Brother Peng and his friends through great hardships."

"I testified that the village master Zhang Dascar received twenty stagnant of money from the Li family."

Faced with these criticisms, Li Tianluo's face showed a blue vein, and finally sneered and took out a roll of things from his sleeve: "I knew that these customers would definitely bribe the unruly people, so he had already brought the most critical evidence, which is the land deed of 800 acres of mountain land."
