The next morning, when it was dawn,
Zhang Nan personally led the team to take Li Qiong, the head of the Li family, to the county government office.
At this moment, the county government office was filled with people from Yong County.
Their eyes suddenly lit up, full of shock.
They seemed to be completely unbelievable.
Wang Hao actually took Li Qiong, the old man, to the county government office.
This means......
He wants to hold a trial for Li Qiong!
He didn't lie!
He really wants to make a decision for the people of Yong County.
"It’s really this guy Li Qiong!"
"The new county magistrate is really powerful. He actually dared to attack Li Qiong."
"Yes, maybe our grievances can really be redressed!"
"I......I really......So excited!"
"......"
When the common people were discussing, a voice rang out in the hall:
"County Magistrate Arrives~~~"
Everyone's eyes immediately focused on the screen.
Under the spotlight, a man in black official uniform, with a heroic and imposing manner, walked straight to the top and sat down gracefully. A gavel rang out.
Wang Hao said in a loud voice:
"Is this Li Qiong, the head of the Li family in Yong County?"
"It's me!"
Li Qiong is indeed an old fox who has experienced many ups and downs. Facing Wang Hao's sharp threat, he was able to remain calm and saluted Wang Hao leisurely.
"Do you know your sin?"
"I don't know, I hope the county magistrate can tell me"
"Very good, direct enough."
Wang Hao was very calm and waved his hand:"Zhao Feng, read it to him!"
Zhao Feng stepped sideways, took out the indictment he had prepared in advance, and read it aloud:
"I have already recorded the crimes of the Li family:"
"First: privately setting up a torture chamber and killing innocent people indiscriminately;"
"Second: He was lawless and forcibly abducted women;"
"Third: bullying and dominating the market, forcing people to buy or sell;"
"......"
"Seventeenth: Privately setting up taxes and levying heavy taxes;"
"Eighteenth: Colluding with bandits to cause chaos in Yong County;"
"According to the laws of the Han Dynasty, the eighteen charges should be punished by death and the extermination of three clans!"
Wang Hao took a deep breath and stared at Li Qiong with burning eyes:"Master Li, you are over sixty years old after all. This county will give you face. If you confess, this county can consider leaving you a whole body!"
Li Qiong was extremely calm:"County Master, I don't recognize any of the evidence you just mentioned. These are all one-sided words of those unruly people!"
"Oh?"
Wang Hao responded coldly.
He knew!
Li Qiong, the old fox, would never plead guilty.
However, since Wang Hao had anticipated this, he naturally had a countermeasure:"You really won't give up until you see the Yellow River, and won't cry until you see the coffin. Are you really taking advantage of me, Wang Hao, who comes from the military and doesn't understand the court's policies?"
Li Qiong frowned:"This........."
Wang Hao gritted his teeth, glared at Li Qiong, and asked sternly:"May I ask, Mr. Li, do you know that the court has clear regulations that private land annexation and sale are not allowed, and according to the court law, your Li family should not have more than 100 acres of good farmland!
But what about your Li family?
Judging from the data counted yesterday, your Li family has 138 acres of paddy fields. The piece of land five miles outside the city is at least thousands of acres. It should also be your Li family, right?"
Li Qiong took a deep breath and remained calm:"No! Absolutely not! These are all one-sided words of those unruly people. That piece of land does not belong to my Li family. I hope the county magistrate can see clearly!"
What the hell!
This old guy actually gave up thousands of acres of good farmland as soon as he opened his mouth.
Suddenly, the people watching outside the county government office shouted:
"Old fox! If the land didn't belong to the Li family, who did I give the rent to in the past few years?"
"That's right! County Magistrate, don't listen to that old guy's nonsense, that piece of land belongs to their Li family!"
"Yes, he was lying!"
"This old fox is lying!"
"The county magistrate is wise!"
"......"
Bang!
A gavel rang out.
"Silence!"
Wang Hao's eyes swept over the common people and finally fell on Li Qiong:"Humph! Do you think you can get away with it by playing rogue? You old fox, you underestimate me, Wang Hao!"
"I admit it!"
Wang Hao raised the corners of his lips slightly, revealing a hint of sinisterness:"You have transferred all the information in the county government office. I have no physical evidence to prove that the real owner of those lands is your Li family!"
"Moreover!"
Wang Hao took a deep breath and exposed Li Qiong's inner thoughts:"You know very well that the one-sided words of the people of Yong County alone cannot convict your Li family. Without solid evidence, I will release you sooner or later."
"Right?"
Wang Hao said softly.
"The county lord is a wise man.
Li Qiong bowed and said,"I did go too far before, but we are friends after fighting. I hope to make friends with the county lord. If there is any problem in Yong County in the future, please feel free to speak up."
"snort!"
"You think you can bribe me, Wang Hao, with these little tricks?"
A hint of disdain flashed across Wang Hao's face.
Then, he slowly stood up, walked around the desk, and came to Li Qiong:"You underestimate me too much. Do you really think I can't figure out your delaying tactic?"
Li Qiong frowned, but remained calm:"I admit that I, Li Qiong, made a mistake. Although you, Wang Hao, are young, you are indeed very capable!"
"But didn't the county magistrate just say that there is insufficient evidence in this case? These people are just one-sided and cannot be trusted completely. You will have to let me go sooner or later!"
"In this case......"
Li Qiong grinned and bowed again:"Why don't we both take a step back? You bypass my Li family, and I, Li Qiong, will fully cooperate with the county magistrate in governing. How about it?"
I have to admit.
Li Qiong is indeed an old fox.
He knows his situation too well.
Therefore, he has repeatedly tried to take down Wang Hao.
Even if some words cannot be made public, he has to bring them to the table.
However......
Is Wang Hao so easy to deal with?
The answer is obviously no!
"Don't be anxious!"
Compared with Li Qiong, Wang Hao was calmer:"Although there is no solid evidence for this matter, the fact that you colluded with the bandits is already solid evidence. This morning, your son went to Langzi Mountain, probably for this matter, right?"
"you......"
Li Qiong finally couldn't stand it anymore:"You actually......"
Wang Hao waved his hand without hesitation:"Where is Zhao Feng?"
Zhao Feng stepped forward and said:"I am here!"
"Go and ask Zhang He whether the other party has confessed."
""Yes!"
Zhao Feng turned and left.
After a while, he appeared in the hall again and said,"County Master, the Li family has confessed that if Li Qiong doesn't come out after noon, the bandits in Langzi Mountain will launch a large-scale attack!"
"Huh?"
Li Qiong was stunned:"You......you......"
Wang Hao smiled sinisterly:"Old fox! You colluded with the bandits and tried to kill me. Today is the perfect day. I will kill you and the bandits and give justice to the people of Yong County!"
"Come here!"
Wang Hao shouted sternly:"Beat this old fox to death in court!"
Generals Zhao Feng and Zhang Nan responded in a resounding voice:"Yes!"
