Fang Jun's Fame Soars!
He waved at Chen Sheng again.
Chen Sheng walked over in a daze and leaned in to listen to what Fang Jun said. His face gradually revealed a look of realization.
Then, Chen Sheng took Fang Jun's token and walked towards Willow Woods. He took over Willow Woods 'money bag and put the token inside.
Liu Lin was shocked by Chen Sheng's action. He hurriedly took out the token and presented it with both hands.
"Sir, what do you mean?"
Fang Jun put on an innocent face and said as if he was stating the truth,"Didn't you say that the things in your bag are naturally yours?”
The corners of Liu Lin's mouth twitched violently as he listened.
"Lord, Lord, are you deliberately teasing me? Daren clearly knew that this lowly one didn't mean it that way.”
"Oh? What does that mean?"
Liu Lin didn't know what to say. He lowered his head and held the token in his hands.
"Pa!"
Suddenly, there was a shocking crisp sound. The gavel was smashed onto the table by Fang Jun. The court was suddenly so quiet that it made people panic.
Everyone was shocked. Looking at Fang Jun's expression that changed in an instant, they felt goosebumps in their hearts.
"Are you still unwilling to accept the truth of modern times?" Fang Jun shouted.”
Liu Lin was also shocked. He was completely flustered and could no longer pretend to be calm.
But he still stubbornly said,"What truth do you want, sir? Are you going to beat me into confessing? The commoners were all watching.”
Fang Jun laughed coldly and glanced at the crowd of people at the door."So you also know that there are many commoners watching at the door? Then how can you speak so calmly in front of so many pairs of eyes?”
Liu Lin opened his mouth, but he didn't dare to look Fang Jun in the eye, nor did he dare to answer Fang Jun's question directly.
At this moment, the crowd gathered at the entrance of the county government once again exerted their power as the masses. They discussed among themselves, and the sound of their discussions reached Willow Woods 'ears.
"I know this man. He is the only son of Craftsman Liu in the alley in the south of the city. Because he is the only son, Craftsman Liu dotes on him to the heavens. I also heard that this son of the Liu family stole the money that Craftsman Liu saved for him to marry a wife.”
"Is that so? It seemed that Liu Lin had stolen Zhang Niu's money.”
"That's right. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that. You didn't see how flustered Liu Lin was when he first saw the county magistrate. If he hadn't done anything sneaky, why wouldn't he dare to look the county magistrate in the eye?”
The few of them pointed at Liu Lin and whispered.
Liu Lin became even more flustered when he heard this. He thought that he was already very calm. He did not expect that someone would still catch a trace of his panic.
Fang Jun also heard what those people said. He looked at Liu Lin coldly and said again,""How is it? Have you thought of how to confess?”
Willow Forest was still struggling.
"No, why should I admit to something I didn't do? Sir, I thought you were just and honest, but I didn't expect you to be such a person. You've been protecting Zhang Niu from the beginning. Sir, did Zhang Niu give you some benefits in secret?”
To put it bluntly, he was hinting at Fang Jun and Zhang Niu's secret dealings.
Fang Jun smiled kindly when he heard that,"Alright, since you refuse to admit it, I'll let you give up.”
"Men! Clear water."
Everyone didn't understand why Fang Jun wanted the water, and they were discussing among themselves.
After a while, the bailiff returned with a basin of clear water.
Fang Jun gave Chen Sheng a look. Chen Sheng reacted and immediately understood. He poured all the money in Willow Woods 'money bag into the clear water. After a while, a layer of clear oil appeared on the water surface.
Now, the truth of the matter had come to light and was clearly placed in front of everyone.
"Liu Lin, do you have anything else to say?”
Liu Lin was still struggling to save face."This lowly one has nothing to say. This basin of clear water cannot prove anything.”
Fang Jun sighed at his actions.
Forget it, this person was hopeless. He should be detained directly.
She really didn't know what was the point of him refusing to admit it until now.
Among the crowd, there were some people who couldn't wrap their heads around it for a moment and asked in a low voice,"This county magistrate wants to shut Liu Lin's mouth with just a basin of clear water? Wouldn't this make people unhappy?"
The person beside him only smiled and said nothing."You don't understand. This is the great wisdom of the county magistrate.”
Pointing at the basin of clear water, Fang Jun said,"You told me yourself that your ancestors were carpenters. May I ask if the wood is oily? Or is it that your money bag is full of oil?"
Liu Lin choked and couldn't speak.
Indeed, he was a carpenter, so it was impossible for his money to contain oil.
Only Zhang Niu, who was in the business of cooking cakes, would have a layer of oil on his money.
In the end, Liu Lin was thrown into prison on the charge of theft.
The commoners couldn't help but praise Fang Jun's wisdom for being able to think of such a method.
Zhang Niu also took back his money and left happily.
Finally, Chen Sheng flipped through the book again. One by one, the people who needed to mediate their disputes were brought to court.
There were local ruffians who molested innocent girls in broad daylight and said they were drunk; There were also men who coveted the sows of their neighbors and stole them in the middle of the night. There were also gossipers who made things up and ruined people's innocence, making things worse, and so on…
Fang Jun only used one morning to solve all these complicated matters. It was not an easy task. Therefore, when the day's ascension ended, the gazes of the people watching at the door changed, all of them turning into admiration.
If these complicated matters were left to the previous person, Hua Li, it would probably take a few days to finish, but Fang Jun had solved them all in a short afternoon.
Fang Jun suddenly became the topic of conversation among the old and young in the streets and alleys.
"Hey, have you heard? Chang 'an City finally has a father and mother official who can clear the lives of the people.”
"I heard that too. It's said that the new magistrate didn't celebrate his appointment as the county magistrate today. Instead, he went to the court to handle the case and settled all those trivial matters in the afternoon.”
"Yes, that's not an easy task.”
The passersby heard them talking about Fang Jun's deeds and joined in the fun.
"Are you talking about the new county magistrate?”
"That's right. You look unfamiliar. You must be a foreigner."
" I just came to Chang 'an City not long ago. I heard that the new county magistrate was appointed today, but I was busy cleaning up the house and didn't go to see it. As a result, in the afternoon, the streets and alleys of our place were talking about the new county magistrate.”
"Tsk, how can we not discuss it? "I was there at the time. Our newly appointed county magistrate is not only talented in poetry and painting, but he is also extremely intelligent. He has never wronged a good person or let a bad person off. He can be said to be fair and honest.”
"Yes, a clean official, a good official who brings benefit to the people.”
