Chapter 35
Dai Tongzhi saw Ye Xiaotian lowering his head and thinking, as if he was moved, he couldn't help but feel happy. He hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and said: "Mr. Ye, the Luo family has suffered a great disaster. Only by dealing with this can the Luo family get more compensation. Otherwise, you will be happy, what are the benefits of the Yu Luo family?"
When Ye Xiaotian heard this, he finally let go and said slowly: "What Dai Tongzhi said makes sense. It's not that Ye is unwilling to be able to make peace. It's just that I still need to ask the Luo family's opinions on this matter. If they would rather give up the prosecution and accept the ransom, Ye will naturally not force himself to be a villain!"
Dai Tongzhixi said: "It should be like this, it should be like this. I believe that the Luo family will accept such an arrangement."
Ye Xiaotian sighed, stood up and bowed to Yu Junting, and said, "Since that's the case, I'll leave!" Yu Junting ignored him with a calm face. Ye Xiaotian didn't think it was offended, so he bowed to her, nodded to Dai Tongzhi, and turned around and walked out.
Dai Tongzhi looked at his back and shook his head with a wry smile, saying, "This person is really a stubborn donkey who can't walk away, and he's fighting backwards. Fortunately, there is a perfect solution to this matter, so I'll tell Zhang Tushe and the others now."
Yu Junting snorted coldly, suddenly frowned and said, "Do you think the Luo family will refuse to accept the claim of compensation?"
Dai Tongzhi was stunned for a moment. What he saw and heard in daily life, those promoted and Doujin had always been inferior to local officials like him, so he naturally felt that others would inevitably accept such mediation, and never thought that they might refuse.
At this time, when Yu Junting said, even though he was sure of his determination, he still didn't dare to say too much. Dai Tongzhi thought about it and said, "It's better for the Lord of Jianzhou to be honest and steadfast! Why don't I go to the prison department to see it now. After getting the accurate news, it's not too late to notify Zhang Tushe and others."
After saying that, Dai Tongzhi bowed to Yu Junting and hurriedly chased Ye Xiaotian.
As soon as Ye Xiaotian returned to the prison hall, the worried Li Qiuchi came up and said, "Dongweng, what do you think of Yu Jianzhou? What does she think about this case?"
Ye Xiaotian waved his hand and greeted Luo's father and mother. Miss Luo Qingqing had been on a hunger strike for three days before she rose up to testify against Zhang Daoyun and others. After the case was tried, her will relax. She suddenly felt weak again and stood powerless, and was helped back to the door panel by her parents.
Ye Xiaotian walked over, lifted his official robe and squatted down next to the door panel. Luo Qingqing lay on the door panel, as if awake but not awake. Suddenly, he felt that the person squatting beside him was not her parents. When he opened his eyes, he happened to meet a pair of clear eyes and was looking at her with sympathy.
Luo Qingqing immediately called out gratefully: "Mr. Ye!"
As he said that, Luo Qingqing was about to get up, and Ye Xiaotian hurriedly stopped him and said, "No need, you are weak. Just lie down."
Luo Qingqing refused to listen, so her parents helped her sit up. Ye Xiaotian pondered for a moment and said, "What are the plans for the girl in the future?"
Luo Qingqing smiled miserably and said quietly: "I am an innocent woman in my family. How can I live in this world with such a shame and humiliation? I have already had the will to die, but I just feel sorry for my parents who have no support in the future..."
Luo Qingqing said this, her voice choked. Tears finally flowed down again. Luo's mother hugged her daughter. She couldn't help but she burst into tears. However, she clearly heard her daughter say she wanted to die early, but she did not persuade her to give up the idea of committing suicide.
Even in the Tang Dynasty, where the people were extremely open and there were many bold and unrestrained women like modern times, there were also many strong women who threw themselves into cliffs and chaste wives who broke their arms. By the Ming Dynasty, Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Even in Guizhou, where ethnic minorities were mainly based on ethnic minorities and their ethics were not as strict as the Central Plains, there were also many chaste women. If a daughter taught by such a family died for justice, his parents naturally thought it was right, so how could they persuade him?
Hai Rui, who is still alive, was still young. When his daughter was only five years old, she was furious because she ate a piece of pie given by someone else and scolded her: "Why can a woman be allowed to be baited by children? She is not my daughter, she can starve to death and she will be called my daughter!" For the sake of great defense between men and women, she finally starved her to death, which shows the atmosphere at that time.
When Ye Xiaotian heard that she had a desperate ambition, he shook his head and said, "Miss is wrong. It's not your fault. You are a weak woman. How can you protect yourself when facing criminals? You shouldn't blame yourself for this."
Luo Qingqing shed tears and said, "Old man, the people's daughter is not guilty of self-repentance, but she is no longer innocent and does not want to leave her dirty body in the world anymore. A common woman will be ashamed of the people, and the Luo family. You don't need to persuade her. The people's daughter has decided to die. Before she dies, she can see the people's daughters upright for justice and will feel at ease to die."
As he said that, Luo Qingqing struggled to kneel down and bow to Ye Xiaotian. Ye Xiaotian hurriedly stopped him, thought for a moment, and lowered his voice: "Girl, you will be pure after death. But if you leave your parents who have lost your beloved daughter, how do you let them live? Ye has a way here, I wonder what the girl wants?"
Luo Qingqing raised her eyes and looked at Ye Xiaotian in confusion. Ye Xiaotian said: "Miss, although I arrested Zhang Daoyun and others, unfortunately he was a child of the Tusi family. When the imperial court recruited Guizhou chieftains in the past, they promised that they would have many privileges, and that gold was one of them.
Therefore, even if the official sentenced them to death and wrote to the court, I am afraid that the emperor would not be able to decide. By then, the emperor would be exempted from his death penalty and to pay the ransom. The price they could pay to you, the Luo family would not be high, so..."
Facing the weak and haggard girl in front of him, Ye Xiaotian was calm and composed in front of King Yang, who was unconscious and nervous, but he felt that he had no courage to face it. He hesitated for a moment before plucking up the courage: "If the girl and your parents are willing to withdraw the lawsuit, I can work hard for you and strive for the greatest benefit.
With the strength of these five powerful families, they will definitely be able to give them a considerable ransom. By then, your family will take the money and go away to another place to settle down. No one will know what happened to you. With this money, your family can live and work in peace. In the future, wouldn’t it be nice to hire a close-knit son-in-law who is considerate and gentle in the family?"
Miss Luo Qingqing stared at Ye Xiaotian with wide eyes and said in a trembling voice: "Sir, are you afraid of their power, are you willing to compromise?"
Ye Xiaotian said: "Miss, don't misunderstand me! Zhang Daoyun and others should be killed, but the law of the country can tolerate him! I also hate him, but after thinking about it, even if I can't cure them, I will still let them get away with the law. It's better to take advantage of their family that their family is also unwilling to make this public to the emperor and try to seek more benefits for your family..."
"I don't need it!" Luo Qingqing stood up with red eyes and suddenly said: "If you have money, can you treat us poor people as animals? If I take their money and settle the lawsuit and leave, then who will I become?"
Ye Xiaotian then stood up and advised: "Girl, don't be stubborn, this is what they should pay."
Luo Qingqing said with tears in her eyes: "I am a good woman, who was ruined by them and ruined her life. Could it be that they should pay for a sum of money? I am a commoner and my life is like a mustard of grass, but my innocence is as noble as the women of their noble family!
Yes, maybe the emperor will forgive them, but this is not the reason for my family to surrender! Master Promotionist, you are a good official, but unfortunately you can't help me, even the emperor can't! In this world, I can't seek justice, there is only there... there is only there to complain about grievances..."
Luo Qingqing said this and suddenly roared and hit the pillar next to her. Ye Xiaotian was shocked and stretched out his hand, but he didn't pull her. Then he heard a loud "bang" sound. Luo Qingqing hit the pillar heavily, and immediately blood gushed like a spring, his body softened, and he fell to the ground.
"Daughter..."
Luo's mother cried, rushed over and hugged her daughter and burst into tears. Seeing this, Li Qiuchi was so panicked that she was at a loss and hurriedly shouted: "Hurry! Save people! Go and find a doctor! Save people!"
The Zaoli in the hall hurriedly surrounded and placed the girl Pingluo in all his hands. They also admired such a virtuous and virtuous woman. One of the Zaoli hurriedly pulled the corner of her clothes, pulled off a piece, and went to wrap Luo Qingqing's wound, but the cloth piece wrapped around her head, and blood oozed out in a moment. The other Zaoli saw this and became very red. Seeing this, she became very busy and followed suit and tore off a piece of cloth from his robe to wrap Luo's wound.
Everyone was busy for a long time. Seeing Luo Qingqing's face pale as paper, a Zaoli reached out to find her breath and couldn't help but scream in panic: "Master Promotionist, it's not good, no, Miss Qingqing...is dead."
Ye Xiaotian stood beside him, feeling confused. Although Miss Luo had already been thirsty for death, even looking at her parents' attitude, she actually agreed to her daughter's death, but he still felt very uncomfortable. He hated his incompetence. At this moment, he would rather not be an official, but a ranger who violated the ban with martial arts.
So what if you are an official? The rules are like this. If you really have to enforce the law impartially, you will indulge these evil people. What is this law? What is this? I heard that Miss Luo was dead after being angry, Ye Xiaotian's body trembled for a moment and dragged his heavy legs slowly over.
Ye Xiaotian knelt down beside Miss Luo on one knee and gently held her hand. Miss Luo's hand was no longer warm, and it was softly held in his palm. She saw her eyes wide open, her eyes full of anger and unwillingness. A large piece of red blood on her pale cheeks was shocking, and her lips were pursed into a stubborn line, which made Ye Xiaotian's heart tremble.
At this time, Luo's father, who was standing beside him, suddenly laughed to the sky and said, "Good death! Good death! My Luo family is a clean and innocent family! My Luo family's daughter is also a good daughter who respects and loves himself!" Luo's father laughed while laughing, and as he smiled, the turbid old tears rolled down...
Ye Xiaotian's eyes slowly turned red. He held Miss Luo's hand tightly and said in a low voice: "Miss Luo, go with peace of mind! Even if the emperor is willing to forgive them and the law is willing to let them go, I will not forgive you! If you have the determination to commit suicide by Exploding Zhu, I will have the courage to extend it for you!"
Ye Xiaotian said, gently stroked Miss Luo's eyes with her trembling hands, gently closing the beautiful, angry and unwilling eyes. When he withdrew his hand, his palm was stained with blood. Ye Xiaotian looked at the blood in his palm and clenched it slowly, his eyes were covered with a layer of blood.
