Chapter 153 Domineering(1/2)

On this day, the rooster crows and the golden crow rises eastward.

The Wu and Chen families, which had a lot of controversy last night, finally got news.

"County magistrate Wu Yue, Chen Youxue, the head of the Chen family, smuggled salt and iron armor... The evidence is conclusive, confessed, and the punishment of the Ming Dynasty... I hope that Dongze County will take this as a warning and do not violate the iron law of Dayu!"

As a notice was posted outside the county government office, spies who had been waiting outside the door for a night squeezed in.

When they saw the content of the notice, their faces changed and they rushed back to their respective forces.

After getting the latest news, the leaders of more than a dozen forces who were worried all night finally breathed a sigh of relief and gathered again.

"Smuggling salt and iron, selling soldiers and armor to bandits, colluding with officials and businessmen, Wu and Chen's family are so big! No wonder they have surpassed us in just a few years!"

Someone was shocked to speak when they saw the content of the notice.

"Hmph! So what if you play big? If you don't have that life, you're just looking for death! No matter how big the family business is, you're still a wedding dress for others!"

Someone sneered and said that the business of smuggling salt and iron was extremely profitable, and he couldn't even enter even if he wanted to.

However, the Wu and Chen families have been in business for so many years and have made a huge profit of their family business, which makes him jealous!

Fortunately, the final outcome is very comfortable.

"You all say less, after all, the dead are the greatest."

Someone couldn't stand it and stopped him and said, "The most important thing for us now is to find out the county magistrate's tone. Will the county magistrate's office intervene in the legitimate industries that the Wu and Chen families have vacated!"

The shouting was so loud that it was not for the benefit of the Wu and Chen families.

"Then we will select a few representatives and work together to send a gift to visit us."

Soon everyone made a decision and started to act.

The lobby of the county yamen is extremely busy at this moment.

There are many case collections in the spacious hall.

On both sides of the lobby, more than a dozen officials are constantly reviewing every case.

If you find something wrong or doubtful, you will immediately give it to Li Yu.

But even if so many of them reviewed the case together, the speed at which they found the problematic case was not as fast as that at which Li Yu approved the case.

"The criminal confessed the two times in this case were obviously different. The witness also had a relative relationship with the defendant, so the testimony that could not be hired."

Li Yu approved the case file and handed it to the officer next to him, saying seriously: "The case needs to be re-examined. I have noted the important points and took them to Wang Qu."

"yes!"

The official wrote down the words carefully, then picked up the case file and walked out of the door and headed to the room next to him.

At this moment, the new county magistrate Wang Qu is working hard to deal with the case and sends a constable to arrest the main personnel of the original case.

He heard the movement at the door, looked up, his eyelids twitched slightly, and continued to work on his own business.

During the years when Wu Yue was the magistrate of Dongze County, he committed many cases for his own selfishness.

Li Yu was busy for several hours, and his brows became deeper and deeper.

"What a bastard. He just cut him off like this, it was a bit cheaper for him!"

Among the many wrongful cases, less than half of the wronged people are still alive.

Others are either being asked to be executed or exiled, and there is no difference between them and death.

In the hall, many officials did not dare to say anything, only a few of them looked excited and worked very hard.

Because of Wu Yue, the entire county government was greatly cleaned up.

The officials who are in charge are basically those who were once marginal, or have been promoted quickly today.

All the original officials had worked under Wu Yue, and they knew how powerful the latter was.

Therefore, Li Yu was very awe of Li Yu who easily solved Wu Yue.

And those who were promoted don’t have so many ideas.

For Li Yu, there is only gratitude and admiration!

Li Yu ignored the thoughts of the people below. He was thinking about the way he executed Wu Yue.

"Since so many unjust, false and wrong cases are sentenced to death, should he be cut off from half, dismembered from the five horses, or light the sky lantern and peeled it, or just lingchi."

Li Yu's voice was not loud, and the officials who were close to each other felt their scalp numbness the more they heard it.

Cutting, peeling, and lingchi, what kind of human torture are these!

All the officials were stimulated, and they worked more seriously, and their eyes were almost blind.

I was afraid that due to my negligence, the wrong case could not be retried, and I was eventually sentenced to death by the county magistrate!

Lingchi or something, it’s so terrible!

Just when everyone was very nervous and almost couldn't hold on, the appearance of a person finally rescued them from the fire and water.

"Sir, the four major families of Zhou, Qin, Chu, Zheng, as well as the three sects of Dajie, Yamamoto and Iron Sword came together to see you!"

An Jinyiwei walked into the lobby quickly and saluted Li Yu respectfully.

"What are they doing?"

Li Yu was puzzled that these seven forces were all local tyrants in Dongze County.

"Let them wait for me in the front hall."

He changed his clothes and then came to the front hall under the escort of Tieshan.

As soon as I stepped in, I saw seven people sitting.

The seven people are all male, about middle-aged, and their dresses are also different.

"See the county magistrate!"

The seven people in the hall also saw Li Yu appearing at the door, and each of them showed surprise on his face.

After a brief shock, the few people finally reacted and quickly stood up to salute.

"Everyone, please get up."

Li Yu smiled and came to the main seat to sit down.

He has a gentle temperament and exudes a kind of affinity that makes people very willing to get close to him.

Seeing this, everyone also felt a little surprised. This county magistrate was not as terrifying as the rumors.

But this is also a good thing. Several people were sure of it and began to talk enthusiastically.

After listening for a while, Li Yu finally understood the purpose of the few people.

It turned out that the noise that he made last night was too big, which made these people worried, so they came together today to test his words.

"I already know what you are here."

Li Yu glanced at everyone below and said calmly: "The case of Wu and Chen families will be settled this morning and will not involve others."

Below, the seven people showed joy on their faces, but Li Yu's next sentence changed.

"But you don't be too happy too early. If you can't touch some things, don't touch them! Otherwise, you will be responsible for the consequences!"

Leaving a warning, Li Yu stood up and walked out.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! He suddenly moved, which attracted everyone to stand up and their eyes moved.

Li Yu walked to the door, suddenly stopped, turned his face slightly, and said calmly: "There is one more thing, I need you to do one."

"Wanbao Pavilion will come to Dongze County recently. Don't stop me. They will tell you my request!"

After saying that, he walked out of the door.

Tieshan followed closely, and the Jinyiwei and Tiance troops also evacuated and the guards left.

"So overbearing!"

When Li Yu had disappeared outside the door, someone in the hall looked sad.

When Li Yu spoke just now, no one in the audience dared to refute.

The powerful power made several people breathless.

"But he does have the confidence to be domineering!"

Someone had shock in his eyes and shook his head and said.

As soon as these words came out, a sigh rang out in the hall.

Compared to Wu Yue who stepped down, this county magistrate seemed to be more difficult to deal with.

However, some people stared at the direction where Li Yu left, their eyes flashing, as if they were thinking about something.

By the way, when Wu Yue stepped down, the position of county magistrate will be vacant.

Li Yu left the hall and did not go to the lobby where the case was handled, but returned to the study.

"Where is Yu Ling'er?"
