However, Situ's lawyer was very sure of this lawsuit and immediately followed the case.

"Miss, what should I do?" The maid pulled Luo Pingping's neck of her clothes, her face full of tears.

No matter how clever Luo Pingping was, she had no idea about being involved in a lawsuit for life at this moment. At this time, she could only rely on Lord Xu in the Hope Hall.

"I can only hope that Lord Xu can be aware of his thoughts..."

"But Miss, didn't you say he was a stupid official?" the maid Xiaofei whispered.

Luo Pingping felt suffocated. This time it was her brother who really killed the person. So what if he was not a fool?

Xu Chuan also heard the whole story of the case from the words of Situ's lawyer. This afternoon, Luo Xingtang went to the jewelry store to buy jewelry, but the result was that there was a conflict with the jewelry store owner due to the payment of goods. The jewelry store owner was over 50 years old. After pushing and shoving, he fell to the ground and died, suing Dr. Luo for murder.

"Sir, please be fair to my father." The little owner of the jewelry shop fell to his knees and shouted miserably.

Xu Chuan nodded slightly, but was quite puzzled. He had just met Luo Xingtang before, who was also a well-educated person. How could he start fighting with someone for no reason? He asked, "Luo Xingtang, why did you have a conflict with the jewelry shop owner?"

Luo Xingtang knelt there, feeling a little weak, "Xiaomin and the boss discussed the price and gave him silver. They had already finished the transaction, but they didn't expect that the jewelry shop owner would buy me silver and said he would pack it for me. He turned around and hesitated. I wanted to argue with him, but the boss refused to admit it. Xiaomin then pushed him and then..."

"You are lying. How long has my business been going on? Who doesn't know about the villagers in the country? How could you ruin your reputation for a few taels of silver for you?" said the little boss of the jewelry shop.

"Yes, it's obviously a lie."

"I have been to that jewelry shop. The boss is kind and can't do that. It must be Dr. Luo who is lying."

The people outside the hall were talking a lot. The little owner of the jewelry store showed a smug look when he heard this, and the Situ lawyer also touched his beards. He thought about this situation today and only took it after several inspections. He would never lose it.

Xu Chuan looked at the two men in the hall and two options emerged in his mind: "I believe what the little owner of the jewelry shop said, public opinion 5, reputation 5, luck -20."

"Believe what Luo Xingtang said, public opinion -5, reputation -5, luck 10."

Xu Chuan was stunned and looked at the jewelry shop owner. Qilu-20? Why... is the latter lying?

Choose to believe in Luo Xingtang.

"Luo Xingtang, I asked you, was there anyone else present when you bought jewelry?" Xu Chuan asked.

"Others..." Luo Xingtang hesitated for a moment and quickly glanced down the hall.

Xu Chuan looked along his gaze and saw a beautiful figure shrinking into the crowd, but it was a young woman with a beautiful and graceful appearance.

"Brother, didn't you make an appointment with Miss Zhang when you were shopping?" Luo Pingping said hurriedly.

"I..." Luo Xingtang glanced at the figure in the crowd and could only sigh. Luo Pingping was stomped in anger by his brother's appearance. He could only step forward and bow and said, "Sir, my brother was shopping with Miss Zhang Qinglian. She must be there at that time. Miss Zhang, please testify for my brother."

Luo Pingping said, his eyes already looking at the woman huddled in the crowd outside the hall.

Hearing her say this, the girl Zhang turned around and prepared to leave, but Xu Chuan's voice had already come, "Take Zhang Qinglian to the hall."

The girl Zhang knew that she lived in Ancheng County and could not run away from the temple even if she could run away, so she could only stop. As the officer entered the hall, the girl Zhang was indeed a good teacher and polite. She first bowed to Xu Chuan, then looked at her eyes without even paying attention to Luo Xingtang beside her, and she had never looked at the little owner of the jewelry shop.

"Ms. Zhang, I asked you something. You have to answer truthfully. If you dare to conceal it, you may not accept the punishment of plagiarism." Xu Chuan gave Miss Zhang a shot.

Xia Chao's punishment for the palm of his mouth is not to use his palms, but to use a wooden board. When the two boards go down, you will be able to discipline your cheeks as swollen as a bag, and your cheeks turn into a big pig's head.

When Miss Zhang heard this, she did look awe-in-law and bowed and said, "Sir, I dare not hide it."

Xu Chuan nodded: "Okay, I ask you, were you in the jewelry store with Dr. Luo at that time?"

"yes."

Xu Chuan asked again: "What he said before is the truth?"

Zhang Qinglian hesitated for a moment, as if she was recalling, but instead shook her head, "The little woman only saw Dr. Luo pushing and shoving with the shopkeeper. When the incident happened, the little woman was looking at the ornaments in the other corner, so she didn't know about it."

One push two five six.

Luo Xingtang raised his head and looked at Zhang Qinglian with surprise, but he didn't say anything after all.

Luo Pingping and the maid Xiaofei were so angry that they stamped their feet when they heard this as a testimony that was completely unfavorable to Luo Xingtang.

It was a waste of her brother's pursuit of this girl, and he was really blind.

After hearing Miss Zhang's testimony, Situ's lawyer came forward with confidence and bowed: "Sir, the case has been found out. Please give the sentence."

Luo Pingping was so anxious that tears were rolling in her eyes. She was just such a brother. She absolutely didn't believe that her brother would kill people, but at this moment there was no need to think about getting rid of the charges. She knelt down and said, "Sir, I am willing to pay the money. I am willing to pay the money to pay the money. Please give me a blessing."

Two options appeared in Xu Chuan's mind: "Sentence Luo Xingtang, public opinion, reputation, luck-20."

"Prevent the trial, public opinion -10, reputation -10, luck 5. Luo Pingping's favorability 30."

Judging from the luck, there must be doubts in this case. Xu Chuan originally expected to hear something useful from Zhang Qinglian's mouth, but then... Xu Chuan rubbed his eyebrows and glanced at everyone below. He could only wave his hands and said, "It's not too early today, and there are still doubts in this case. Let's take the post and retrial. Come on, take Luo Xingtang into jail and withdraw."

"Why did it be postponed?"

"Will the county magistrate announce the verdict for such an obvious case?"

"Don't be in trouble."

The people are not happy.

"Why are you adjudicated? Sir, sir..." The little boss of the jewelry store and the Situ litigator were a little unwilling to accept it. Seeing that he was about to win the case, why did he adjudicate again?

"If you approve the post, you can't escape."

The little owner of the jewelry shop looked at Luo Xingtang and snorted and left angrily. Miss Zhang still didn't look at others from beginning to end and left alone.

"Doctor Luo, let's go with your brothers." Yacha took Luo Xingtang away with a slight smile. Luo Pingping was in a slightly better mood and actually advised him to retrial?

"Miss, the case has been clear, why are you postponed again? Could it be that the lord intends to favor us?" The maid Xiaofei whispered.

"Favor us?"

"Yes, Miss, you don't mean he is a stupid official. This postmaster must give us time to raise money." Xiao Fei said confidently.

Luo Pingping was half-believing and half-doubted, and couldn't help but say, "But he doesn't look like a greedy person."

"Those officials are either greedy for money or lust. They are not greedy for money, then...ah..." Xiao Fei suddenly thought of something and hurriedly looked at his lady.

"Miss, he won't like you."

A red cloud suddenly flew on Luo Pingping's cheek and said anxiously: "Don't talk nonsense...he..."

"Yes, yes, it's impossible. He can't fall in love with the lady. Miss, you are like a thin monkey, and you don't even have any meat. How could the county magistrate fall in love with you? Then he's liked... Oh, does he fall in love with the maid? Miss, what should I do?" Xiao Fei said to himself.

I didn't notice my lady's black cheeks at all.

"Speaking of this, the county magistrate looks good, and he is the lord of a county. It's nothing to be committed to him. Then, for the sake of the young master, I'm willing to go out... Hey, Miss, why are you leaving? Miss, wait for me..."

...

Xu Chuan walked towards the back yamen and felt that the qi and blood in his body were slightly relieved. It was obviously the consequence of the decline of public opinion. Just now, he chose the right luck in both options, and the public opinion was reduced by 15 points in total.

Xu Chuan's mind was immersed in the three light spots in the sea of ​​consciousness, with 582 points of public opinion, 560 points of reputation, and 1862 points of luck.

He tried to move his palms, and the surging qi and blood under his skin, the itchy feeling that something was about to break through his body disappeared.

"Is it possible that the public opinion will only increase significantly after more than 600 points?"

Xu Chuan felt it faintly.

Six hundred points are a critical point of transformation.

"How strong is my strength? I can try it tonight."

He was looking forward to it.

At this time, two figures walked by under the corridor. It was Jieyu. The two girls Yuewu, who saw Xu Chuan walking in official robes, stopped quickly: "I have seen the master."

"Yes." Xu Chuan nodded and walked straight past.

The two women looked at each other and smiled, then walked towards Li Ming's courtyard. Unfortunately, they arrived outside Li Ming's room and knocked on the door for a long time but no one responded. Li Ming was practicing and could not care about them.

The two girls were frozen outside the door for a long time and felt that they could not break the Qiu Jian School, so they left in disappointment. When they left, Xu Chuan quietly left the county government gate wearing a cotton robe and a long sword in his hand.

...

midnight.

In the county jail, Luo Xingtang sat in the corner of the prison with a depressed look on his face. Opposite him was Qiu Jinhu lying on the ground with half a piece of grass roots hanging in his mouth.

Qiu Jinhu frowned. The black-faced man was too heavy for giving birth to it. He almost broke his ass with a few sticks.

"Hmph, stinky brat, today's work is not over. I will slowly digest you after I go out." There was evil spirit in his eyes.

"Hey, aren't Dr. Luo? Why are you locked in?" Qiu Jinhu raised his head and grinned.

"I...I killed someone by accident." Luo Xingtang sighed softly.

"Murder? You?" Qiu Jinhu seemed to hear a joke. Then he said:

"Since you have killed someone, that's a death sentence. Doctor Luo, I admire your medical skills. How about we go out together?"

"Go out? Why..."

Luo Xingtang was about to shake his head.

Suddenly, nine black figures rushed in from the cell, and the nine figures were holding an axe.

"Nine Axes? Haha, my second brother actually invited you here." Qiu Jinhu laughed excitedly when he saw their nine axes.
