Jiang Baifu was beaten to the ground by Ma Jiu and didn't get up for a long time... He was very good at talking and his fist skills were good, but he couldn't resist in court, so he simply lay down and pretended to be dead.

Chen Xi picked up the sign on the table, took out a few red-headed bamboo sticks, weighed them in his hand, and scared the person kneeling down to death. As long as Chen Xi threw it down, a board would be indispensable.

Chen Xi asked the scar-faced man: "Tell me! What happened at that time? If you hide it at all, you will make your butt bloom!"

"Master... sir, we... sir... escaped from the boat... please... sir please take a look!" The scar-faced man kowtowed repeatedly.

"Oh, you escaped by boat? Fight!"

Chen Xi threw down two bamboo sticks directly, which meant to hit twenty big boards, but the yamen in the hall did not belong to the governor's yamen after all. At this moment, they quickly looked at the magistrate Liu Xiang with the gaze of asking for instructions.

Liu Xiang hurriedly said, "Sir, this is not a prisoner, but a witness. The witness replied truthfully, without any obstruction, he could not be beaten, he could not be beaten!"

Chen Xi nodded and said, "I can't beat him if I reply truthfully, but I think his words are flickering and seem to be hiding something. I will beat him first!"

Yacha didn't dare to take action, but Ma Jiu and Zhu Qi had no scruples. At this moment, they had already received a killing stick from Yacha's hands. Just as they were about to take action, they heard a sound from outside: "Slow down!"

Everyone looked at the yamen, and the crowd automatically made way. An official wearing a big red official robe, strode with several subordinates, was Zhang Yuanying, the right governor of Guangdong.

When Liu Xiang saw Zhang Yuanying, he seemed to have seen a savior. He walked out of the lobby quickly, stepped forward respectfully and saluted, saying, "Please pay tribute to Lord Fantai."

A subordinate official behind Zhang Yuanying shouted: "Guangdong governor, the governor, Master Zhang, is here, but he still can't he behave?"

The onlookers were basically ordinary people. After hearing this, they knelt down and saluted, saying "Master Fantai", while Chen Xi was still sitting upright in the lobby as usual.

Zhang Yuanying entered the hall, walked calmly towards Chenxi, and said, "Why should the governor and governor Chen go to the trial of the case in person?"

Chen Xi shook his head slightly: "Even the right governor of Guangdong is here in person, why can't I come? I am currently in the trial of the case. I wonder if Zhang Fantai wants to listen or come here to explain a few words?"

Zhang Yuanying saw Chen Xi's arrogant expression, and immediately raised his face and said, "The Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-Governor-

This crime sounds quite fresh, "the sin of not following the law" seems very high... It is such a great sin if you don't even obey the law! But carefully consider what it means to not obey the law? To convict a criminal, at least it must be said which one is violated, and where is there such a general conviction for people?

Chen Xi was born as the top scholar and was very familiar with the "Da Ming Law". He asked now: "I want to ask, which one of the laws is violated by using the county government to determine a case?"

There is no article in the "Da Ming Law" that it is not allowed to be tried in court. Zhang Yuanying could have impeached Chen Xi for "uspense", but Chen Xi is the governor of the three provinces and has the authority to rectify local officials. The yamen is much more thirsty than the magistrate's yamen. What crime is there for the superiors and subordinates to borrow the yamen?

To sum up, it can be said that Chen Xi "don't abide by the rules", but this is not a crime. As a subordinate magistrate of Nanhai County, Liu Xiang, has the power to refuse, but how could Liu Xiang have the courage to drive Chen Xi out of the county government?

Even though Zhang Yuanying was old and stern, he was speechless by a junior questioning, and was immediately extremely embarrassed and upset.

Zhang Yuanying thought to himself that the young boy just didn't know the rules and shouted before he was dry. Wouldn't he betray him when he grew older? Zhang Yuanying shouted: "Comeone, all the people involved in the case will be escorted to the yamen of the Criminal Office and handed over to the magistrate for interrogation!"

Since it is impossible to pursue the matter of borrowing a yamen from Chenxi, then we should make a fuss about the qualifications of Chenxi's interrogation. Usually, ordinary people go to county yamen and government yamen when suing lawsuits. If the committee is not allowed to submit it, they can report it to the Censorship Department, and the yamen in charge of the criminal name and litigation affairs of a province will make a decision. Although Chenxi has great power, he has no right to interfere in local affairs.

Chen Xi thought to himself: "You found people. Now I see that I have made a big deal and can't think about it? How can it be so cheap!"

"Slow down!"

Chen Xi raised his hand and shouted sternly.

Zhang Yuan said with confidence: "Governor Chen should understand the rules of the court. You may not have the right to interfere in local administration and prison affairs within your duties!"

Chen Xi's tone was gloomy: "I don't care about the prison, but it seems that the governor and the yamen in the vassal state have no right to intervene, right? Zhang Fantai said that I don't understand the rules. I don't understand the rules. You are the ones who came to report that were a major case of robbers robbers and murders at sea. As a governor of the imperial governor, it is a matter of extermination of the case by the Japanese pirates in the coastal provinces. Zhang Fantai wanted to take the people away. Could it be that he had any connection with the bandits and was sincerely protecting them?"

"ah!?"

When Chen Xi finished speaking, everyone present was shocked.

The Shenxi government official who covered up the pirates and Japanese pirates, and the charges were too shocking. The people were scared from the bottom of their hearts after hearing this... What if the matter was true?

Zhang Yuanying originally wanted to use public opinion to put pressure on Chen Xi, but unexpectedly, Chen Xi took advantage of the public's fear of the bandits and gave him a warning first.

If you take someone away, it is equivalent to admitting to secretly sheltering the bandits. If you stay, I will continue to investigate the case! If you make a move, I will take it. This county government office is the battlefield for you and me to play!

Zhang Yuanying said: "Governor Chen, don't frame and accusation. Guangdong is not Fujian. Officials and people are determined to resist the bandits. I just want to investigate the robbers' robbers' ship robbers as soon as possible, so I have to hand over the people to the Nisi Office for handling."

Chen Xidao: "Since the case is to be tried, we will be concluded here. I happened to want to find out and lead the troops to encircle and suppress the enemy. Should Zhang Fantai stay and listen?"

Zhang Yuanying's expression changed a little, but he was not worried about Chen Xi's tricks, because as long as he was there, he could react on the spot. Even if these people who came to report the case were tortured, they would not dare to speak nonsense.

"I want to hear what case they are going to report." Zhang Yuanying sat on the chair prepared for him next to him, looking at the people present without expression.

Zhang Yuanying came in person to prevent Jiang Baifu and others from "confessing" under torture.

Sure enough, when Jiang Baifu saw Zhang Yuanying's face turned green, he was so scared that he was trembling all over... Now even Zhang Yuanying couldn't steal people from Chen Xi. He was obviously going to sacrifice him, so he couldn't speak nonsense, so he was in trouble next time.

Chen Xidao: "Since Zhang Fantai is here, let's send someone to invite the Censorate and the Commander-in-Chief of the Ti, too!"

Zhang Yuanying glared at Chen Xi: "What does Governor Chen mean? Do you need to be tried in three courts?"

"What's wrong?"

Chen Xi asked back: "It is not only the duty of the local bandits, but also the unshirkable responsibility of the local three yamen. Now it is a major case involving ship robbery and murder. I ask the Censor and the people from the Commander-in-Chief Office to listen together to assist me in suppressing bandits. What's wrong with it?"

Zhang Yuanying has no way to refute it.

The situation was similar to that of Fuzhou City. As long as Chen Xi raised the problem to the level of bandit suppression, all the yamen in the three provinces, including the three departments and the government offices, prefecture offices and county offices below, must obey the orders...

You can secretly sabotage and not cooperate, or you can make excuses to not come, but since you are here, you cannot interfere with me and investigate the bandits, nor can you stop me from inviting others.

Zhang Yuanying showed a sneer on his face, and communicated with Jiang Baifu with his eyes, then said: "Governor Chen just sends someone to invite him."

Chen Xi had not many people under his command, so he had to ask the county government office to inform the Criminal Censorate and the Commander Command on his behalf.

Originally, the two yamen only needed to send someone to listen, but knew that this was the governor of the three provinces, Chen Xi, and the right governor Zhang Yuanying was present to listen. It was really unreasonable not to send the top leader.

When the commander-in-chief Li Che and the prosecutor Lin Tingxuan, who was known for his repeated resolutions on suspicion of justice and justice in prisons, arrived, thousands of people had gathered outside the Nanhai County Government, and officials of the three departments of the province and governors gathered in a county government hall to investigate the case. This was the first case in Guangdong since the founding of the Ming Dynasty.

Li Che was in his thirties and was young and strong. He followed Liu Weikuan, the commander-in-chief who had visited Chen Xi before, and Lin Tingxuan came alone.

After each of them saw the ceremony, Lin Tingxuan and Li Che both avoided Chen Xi. It was obvious that Zhang Yuanying had already greeted them before.

Lin Tingxuan was over fifty years old and with a sense of righteousness on his body, he asked, "Shen Zhongcheng, I don't know why I asked me to come to the Nanhai County Government. Could it be that Your Majesty has an oral order, and you will explain it to us?"

Chen Xi didn't know much about Lin Tingxuan, but he only knew that his official voice was good, but the official voice was mostly other people's senses, and the ears were empty. Just like Zhang Yuanying's official voice was always good, but he just set up straits everywhere.

Chenxi Road: "A merchant ship was robbed when he went to sea. The merchant and the boatman fled and returned to Guangzhou to report the case. It was impossible for yamen at all levels to accept it. This official borrowed the Nanhai County Government to investigate the case."

Lin Tingxuan said seriously: "That's not a case trial, but an inquiry. Why do you have to mobilize a large number of troops? Or should you ask the people to disperse? What does Zhang Fantai think?"

Zhang Yuanying had thought about letting the people retreat before, but now he is not anxious. He hopes that the more the movement, the better. He immediately replied: "The matter of bandits involves people's livelihood, and it is okay for the people to listen to it."

Lin Tingxuan originally wanted to follow Zhang Yuanying's wish, but unexpectedly he was disappointed and retreated aside in disappointment and stopped talking. Li Che and Liu Weikuan, who accompanied him, remained silent because the army had never been involved in local government affairs.

Zhang Yuanying smiled and said, "Governor Chen, now everyone has arrived. Will the case be tried?"

Chen Xidao: "Then let's start the business... Jiang Baifu, you said that the ship was robbed shortly after you went to sea. What's the process? To put it in detail..."

Jiang Baifu said loudly: "Sir, the villain has never left the sea, and the ship has not been robbed. Sir, I heard it apart."
