Chapter 717

Huo Huangying didn't look at him at all.

He went to see Li Hanyao again.

Li Hanyao looked at He Wu.

He Hu was as angry and unbelievable as Mei Zihan. Obviously, Li Hanyao knew the vital points of literary scholars very well, and she now attacked Mei Zihan's vital points. Not only was Mei Zihan worse than death, but he could not bear this attack. Even if Li Hanyao ordered to kill Mei Zihan, it would be better than this.

Han Fei was furious and shouted: "Li Hanyao, you have such a vicious heart!"

Li Hanyao said unhappily: "Why am I cruel? Please explain it clearly?"

Han Fei revealed: "You said you were clearing your name for your husband, which is obviously to embarrass you. Mei Zihan is a student of Mr. Mei Zihan. He made a mistake. Mr. had already expelled him from the academy and asked to study politics to seize his fame and fortune, and did not favoritism. Killing people is just a head-on. If you sentence Mei Zihan to death, we have nothing to say; however, if you let him show his name on the street and make people public his crimes, it is clearly to ruin the reputation of the teacher!"

He Hu's students all agreed angrily.

Killing a mouse to hurt Yu Ping, destroying Mr. He's wisdom for the sake of Mei Zihan. This trick is too vicious.

Li Hanyao asked: "According to you, this matter must be hidden quietly to maintain the reputation of Senior He?"

Han Fei said: "I didn't let you hide it, but you should not show it to the public!" A scholar can be killed but not humiliated. It is too much to humiliate a scholar like this.

Li Hanyao asked with a good temper: "You want to say 'Scholars can be killed but not humiliated'? Mei Zihan used despicable means to frame the magistrate of Huo County and frame this girl. How should you punish me?"

Han Fei said: "Sentenced to beheading! The girl doesn't even understand this? Is it possible that a criminal harming people? The government officials also have to use the same means to harm them? That's not the same as a criminal. How can we calm the people's hearts when dealing with this way?"

Li Hanyao smiled and said, "You cherish your reputation too much, but you don't know that this will backfire. Senior He's most annoying is that Mei Zihan deceives and uses him. Mei Zihan not only uses his predecessor, but also uses the magistrate of Huo County to deceive his colleagues and the people. I sentence him to public, and even strip him naked and exposed him to others. Not only does he warn the people, but also clears the suspicion of Senior He. If he killed him silently, how could others believe that Senior He was innocent? After all, Senior brought these people to stand up for Mei Zihan today. I am afraid that everyone thinks that Senior He was a hero who cut off his arm and Mei Zihan was a scapegoat."

Han Fei was shocked, is this true?

He looked at He Wu in confusion.

He Hu said to Han Fei: "No need to argue." He turned to Li Hanyao and said coldly: "As for the girl, I have a clear conscience."

He didn't say anything to stop him because he couldn't stop him. No matter what, he was embarrassed: if you deal with Mei Zihan quietly, others would doubt him; if you show it on the street, his reputation would be damaged. This girl is such a powerful method!

Li Hanyao saw that he was very unhappy, but she did not let go. If it were anything else, she would never use such fierce means with her reputation in the scholarly forest. But Mei Zihan deceived, used, robbed and imprisoned Huo Huangying. If she didn't let this breath on behalf of Sister Huo, she would not be Li Hanyao.

He Hu's reputation would be damaged, and she couldn't care. Having said that, He Hu, as Mei Zihan's husband, did not mention the responsibility of teaching. He just brought so many people to seek justice for Mei Zihan today and demanded punishment and expulsion of Huo Huangying. After Mei Zihan's crime was exposed, he not only did not repent and admit his mistakes, but also strengthened his determination to suppress Huo Huangying and her, as if Mei Zihan would commit crimes, so she could not be soft-hearted. Humph, this old man was too prejudiced to women, so he learned a lesson.

Mei Zihan and Huang Sheng were taken out and knelt at the street corner outside the yamen. Fang Mian sent a hundred elite soldiers to guard the county yamen. The county yamen also sent a quick-talking yamen runner to explain the crimes they committed for the onlookers.

Killing human lives is nothing, and bloody and cruelty in the struggles in troubled times is inevitable; conspiracy is nothing, and soldiers never get tired of deceit; but as a scholar, Mei Zihan actually uses women's feelings, which makes people disgusted; using teachers is even more taboo for scholars, "As a teacher for one day and a father for life", even the master deceives and uses it. This is the lowest character and will be despised by the entire Shilin.

Faced with all kinds of accusations and humiliation, Mei Zihan wished she could die immediately. He was unwilling to give in and hoped that he would die faster. It would be too uncomfortable to live like this.

He thought of the fire Huangying and the bone-eroding torture.

Huo Huangying is busy with major events now and has forgotten him. Under the promotion of He U and Li Hanyao, letters were sent out from the county government: there were pigeons, who were walking from the air; there were fast horses, who were walking from the land; there were ships, who were flying from all directions, northern Xinjiang, western Xinjiang, southern Xinjiang, and capital...

For those who are close, such as Huzhou, they receive the news on the same day or the next day; for those who are far away, they receive the news in just three or five days, causing a stir and causing a change of storm. From the next day, literati have come to Xiazhao one after another, with different purposes.

If you press this, don’t say it, let’s talk about it first.

Li Hanyao showed Mei Zihan to the public, Han Fei and others were angry and wanted to stand up for the teacher, so they questioned Li Hanyao: In the case of the Wu family, Huo Huangying, Qi Zhuan and Ajia, who beat the person to death, had no responsibility at all? What should they do about it?

Li Hanyao said solemnly: "Of course it needs to be dealt with! The case has not been tried yet. Prison Ma and other relevant people have a long way to go. Huzhou Censor can only be tried. However, after Shangguan disappeared, the chief clerk Qi served as the chief clerk. If he asked and investigated carefully, he would definitely notice the strangeness of the secret meeting between Master Wu and Yan. He focused on interrogating Yan. Master Wu would not be beaten to death. Perhaps when he had a chest pain, he found clues and would not be sure to save his life. Therefore, Master Qi could not escape the crime of dereliction of duty."

After hearing this, Mrs. Wu and her daughter burst into tears.

The chief clerk Qi said bitterly: "The lower official is aware of his crime."

Han Fei asked unwillingly: "What about Aga?"

Li Hanyao said: "Aga naturally has faults, so they will be sentenced later. - I want to review the Wu family first."

Everyone was stunned. Didn’t the Wu family be wronged?

Mrs. Wu and her daughter were even more despicable, thinking that she had tried to find trouble for the Wu family, avenged Huo Huangying, and excused the chief clerk Qi and Aga.

Li Hanyao said solemnly: "This case caused an unjust case. Although Mei Zihan's crime is unforgivable, it is rumored that the Wu family is harsh on workers, and the eldest young master of the Wu family bullies female workers. Whether the Wu family treats workers is harsh on workers can be found out once you check."

At the order, the yamen runners who had prepared had already brought the Wu family's account books, piled up in the hall, and drew many accountants from various workshops. Each of them had a handful of abacus and started operating in the hall.

Everyone was stunned.

Li Hanyao even came on stage in person, took a book and flipped it out, and read it very quickly. Ting Qin was there to make a record for her.
