Chapter 70: Being Distressed
Liu Shi listened to the old man's words secretly, but he was cheerful and unconcealed, but he said, "Where is so talented, I can't use stealing into the boudoir, it's all the beauty who throws her arms to her arms."
The old man smiled and said, "You kid, you are not afraid of your tongue flashing."
Liu Shi said secretly: "I saw that the old man was a good man, and with his words just now, he also guessed that the old man was a doctor. Let me guess the reason for your crime. Could it be that the sick family was sued by the government because he was not saved by death? Or the old man had poor medical skills and was cured to death?"
The old man shook his head and said, "You are just joking about you, the flower-picking thief, you are fine, I'm talking about it and I'm not going to save you when I die."
Liu Shi secretly replied: "It is in accordance with etiquette when we pay tribute to each other."
The old man said, "You have guessed one or two. I am indeed not good at medical skills and have not saved that person. But if my medical skills are enough, I will not save that person."
Liu Shi secretly heard some stories, but it was hard to ask. At this time, he met the whipped sinners on the far road. He had been taken to the center of the square. There were a total of six people, all of whom were removed from their shackles and tied to the punishment platform. The eight executioners had sharpened their knives and were ready.
It happened to be midday, and a token was thrown away and eight heads fell to the ground.
Many sounds were made in the crowd.
The old man also looked at the crowd in the distance and said, "The sinful person will be punished. This principle will not change. But such a scene is too bloody."
Liu Shi said secretly: "This is the reason for killing a chicken to warn the monkey. The government uses this bloody scene to make the people remember, and don't step into the abyss."
After the verdict, the personnel were deported one after another. After a long time, fewer and fewer people in the square were there. After two or three hours, there was no one before the exiled mansion.
At this time, another Dongzhou army walked to Liu Shihan, took a notice and said, "Liu Shihan, why didn't you submit the documents? Today, you should settle in the Eighth County with the 173 people in front of you and become a laborer."
Liu Shi secretly looked up at the Dongzhou Army, then raised his finger and pointed at the exile mansion, saying, "I should go through the back door."
Dongzhoujun narrowed his eyes a little while listening, and then said, "You guys are busy with business, you should hurry up and follow me." After the words, he turned around and left.
The old man looked at Liu Shian and felt a little disgusted: "It turns out he is a backdoor." There was a lot of contempt in his tone.
Liu Shi said secretly: "Old man, all things in the world can be exchanged equally, that is fair. I follow this law."
The old man said, "I don't even dare to bear the crimes I have committed. I don't know what fairness is. The Dongzhou government opened this back door so that many people can scapegoat, which is already unfair. I thought you were a noble person and were talking to you. Now it seems that I have misunderstood the truth."
The old man stood up and was about to leave.
Liu Shian didn't know why the old man suddenly got angry and said, "Old man, we were still very comfortable when we talked just now, why did you change your attitude all of a sudden."
As soon as he said that, he heard a sound of his stomach roaring. Liu Shian understood. It turned out that the old man thought Liu Shian was very rich, but the two of them had been talking for so long, but they had never said they wanted to treat him to a meal, and they felt unhappy.
Liu Shi secretly took out a penny and handed it to the old man, saying, "Don't be angry, old man, buy some food. Liu Shi secretly. I don't know the old man's name."
The old man took the money and finally smiled and said, "Doctor Lu, you can come to me if you have any illness in the future. I live in the 98th District, District 8th County."
Liu Shi secretly thought to himself that you, an old quack doctor, wouldn't dare to treat you if you are sick. Then he said a few words, just to go to the exile mansion.
...
The main entrance of the exile mansion, the back door next to it.
After Liu Shi secretly entered, he was taken to the innermost room. All the documents from the government were filled with receipts, leaving only a long desk. There were a few people sitting in the government and the one sitting in the middle was very fat and wanted to spread the clothes. This person was Liang Tu, the governor of Dongzhou.
During the period when Liu Shinan also heard the inn waiter mention this Mu Zhengsheng. He said that the governor was very easy to distinguish, and at a glance, he could recognize it. However, in the waiter's words, Liu Shinan thought that the governor of Dongzhou was a capable and strong person, but now it seems that he is like this. The position of the governor of Dongzhou was too comfortable.
Liu Shi knelt down and saluted, saying, "The sinner Liu Shinan, I have met the governor."
The governor Liang in the middle listened and said, "Get up."
"yes."
Liu Shi stood up secretly and waited for the adult in front of him to ask questions, but no one spoke. Liu Shi secretly guessed in his heart that the officialdom was, in his opinion, nothing more than "scarce" and "speculation". Now that the officials are not speaking, he shouldn't be standing there.
Then he bowed and took out the silver notes from his arms.
At this time, several guards were already blocking Liu Shihan, obviously thinking that Liu Shihan was going to take out some powerful weapon.
Liu Shinan slowly took out the silver notes and said, "Mr. Governor, Caomin heard that Dongzhou has a scapegoat method, so he came here to ask for advice. The villain has committed a crime for ten years and knows that he is guilty of great sins. He is just a grand achievement, and he also hopes to perform some silver in this Dongzhou. I hope that the adult can find a strong man for the villain and serve the villain."
A civil servant accepted Liu Shian's silver notes and banished documents, counted the silver notes, handed them to the governor, and said, "Sir, ten thousand taels."
The governor Liang picked up the document on the case, looked at it, and said, "Liu Shian, exiled Dongzhou for ten years. Not to mention the law of scapegoat, this ten thousand taels of silver will be put on the table first."
As he said that, he took a ink inkstone and pressed it on the silver note, as if he was pressing against Liu Shinan.
The governor of Liang struggled to get up from his seat, and the two civil officials around him also supported the governor of Liang.
Governor Liang bypassed the table and wanted to know, what do you think of the current emperor Mu Zeling?"
Liu Shi was secretly shocked. He knew the weight of the question. Although the official called the emperor directly, he still didn't know the attitude of governor Liang. Liu Shi lowered his body and said respectfully: "I don't know what this person is like? The people of the grass dare not talk to the emperor."
Governor Liang patted Liu Shian on the shoulder and said, "If you say I am satisfied, this scapegoat will be the one who is scapegoat, and you will be free, it is only a seal for me. Although I still have to stay in Dongzhou, it will be better than ten years of hard work."
Immediately, Governor Liang's face turned cold, he slapped the table on the desk, pointed to a few silver notes and said, "If I am not satisfied with your answer, even if you have tens of thousands of taels of gold, you have to go to that county to commit crimes."
