Chapter 857

Fang Yun looked at the woman and said, "if you repent in time, the county will no longer punish you. Quit the lobby first."

"Thank you, madam, for your kindness!" the woman in gorgeous clothes hurried out of the lobby.

"Zhuo Jing is reckless. Thank you for your kindness." Ni Kuo bowed his hand to thank him.

Fang Yun nodded and said, "who's under the hall? Report your name?"

Ni Kuo and the other seven defendants trembled and dared not say a word.

The middle-aged man on the other side threw a fist at Fang Yun and said, "Xiaomin Tian Fusheng, bring the child Tian Lu to meet Lord Xu Sheng."

"Why did you and your son take the four children to court?" Fang Yun said and looked at Tian Fusheng carefully. He was dressed in old clothes. It was just over 30, but his temples were gray.

Tian Fusheng looked sad and angry and said: "Tian Lu, my son, was obedient, down-to-earth and diligent since childhood. He never bullied good people. He has a good reputation among his classmates. However, he was hostile to Ni Xian because of some trivial things in the Academy. My son knew that the Ni family was powerful, and he was tolerant and apologized many times. Unexpectedly, Ni Xian took an inch. He not only bullied my son many times, but also gathered his partners to intensify, abused my son, tore his clothes in public and beat me many times, Forcing my son to kneel is heinous. "

"How long will it last?" Fang Yun looked at Tian Lu, who was only 13 or 14 years old. The child lowered his head, grabbed the scholar's robe with both hands, and his body trembled. At a glance, he knew that he was a coward in his heart.

"As early as March the year before last, my son suffered verbal humiliation and was beaten since May the year before last. At first, we saw that he had some minor injuries. We only thought he was caused by playing. Until one day in March last year, his clothes were torn and he came home crying with scars, we didn't know what had happened these years from his mouth."

"What did you do after that?" Fang Yun asked.

Tian Fusheng looked sad and said: "We first came to Ning'an County Yamen to appeal. The last Ji county magistrate sentenced Ni Jia and others to apologize to my son and compensate me for 50 liang of tattooed silver as medical expenses. Although we were dissatisfied with this punishment, we had nothing to do. We thought it was over, but my son was still unhappy and his ranking in the Academy continued to decline. We didn't find out that he was covered by clothes until he took a bath one day There are bruises in many places where we live! We now understand that they have changed from light to dark, just like animals! I appeal again, but the county magistrate's judgment is the same as before! "

"After that?" Fang Yun asked.

"Then I protested and took my son to the mansion to complain, but Ni Kuo was a child and his wife was the daughter of a famous family. I don't know what means he used. The government officials kicked us out of the mansion on the grounds that Ning'an county had closed the case and couldn't appeal beyond the level! Afterwards, the Ni family sent a message saying that they were willing to give 300 liang of silver for private, otherwise, it would make our Tian family restless!"

"Oh? Did you promise to be private?" Fang Yun asked.

Tian Fusheng's eyes widened angrily and said, "my son was a promising child student, but he was bullied by Ni Xian and others, so that his studies were abandoned and his future was ruined! Not to mention three hundred Liang silver, thirty thousand Liang can't change my son's studies! Tian Fusheng doesn't want their dirty money, just one justice! One justice!"

Tian Fusheng roared out the last four words.

Fang Yun looked at the young Tian Lu and said, "Tian Lu, what do you want to say?"

Tian Lu shook his head slightly, even afraid to look up.

Fang Yun frowned slightly, and Tian Fusheng hurriedly said, "the child has been unable to talk to others for many days, and I have nothing to do."

Fang Yun glanced at the eight defendants and found that several of them looked at Tian Lu with some contempt and some ridicule. He immediately sank his face.

Fang Yun looks at Tian Lu and is worried. It must be ni Xian and others who threaten Tian Lu. Although the plaintiff is the Tian family's father and son, the victim is Tian Lu. If Tian Lu doesn't open his mouth and explain the story in detail, he can't do anything even if he has the ability to be a saint.

As time went by, there was silence in the lobby, while some people outside the hall whispered.

Not long ago, Fang Yun suddenly clapped a startling picture and said loudly, "Tong Sheng Tian Lu, what do you want to say?"

Tian Lu shut his mouth, lowered his head, trembled slightly and said nothing.

Fang Yun took a deep breath, straightened up, snorted coldly and said, "reading the book of saints, you have courage, wisdom, sacrifice your life for righteousness, and kill yourself into benevolence, but you dare not say a word. Where is your righteousness! Where is your courage! Where is your wisdom!"

Fang Yun's voice became louder and louder, but Tian Lu didn't seem to respond at all.

"Jiagu alliance, Confucius blocked dozens of armed soldiers with a mere mortal body, and denounced the king of a country and the courage of Kong Shengsheng. Do you remember?"

Tian Lu didn't respond.

"When Mencius saw King Xuan of Qi, King Xuan of Qi asked his officials if they could kill the king. Mencius faced the king of a country and said that if you don't, you are a sinner. Ministers can't kill the king, but you can kill sinners! Do you remember the courage of Meng Shengzhi!"

Tian Lu held his right hand tightly.

Fang Yun paused, pointed to Tian Fusheng and said, "your father is a white man. He is not a child, but he is not afraid of being strong and powerful. He runs between the prefecture and county for his son. His temples are white and have no regrets. Do you remember your father's courage?"

Tian Lu's body trembled slightly.

"There are countless kinds of bravery in the books. You dare not take one and do it. You just learn without thinking, and think without doing it. It's worse than rotten wood and hard stones. How can you call yourself a scholar? It's like a piece of waste paper and a broken pen! Would you rather give up the world to your enemies than fight?"

Tian Lu couldn't bear it any longer. He suddenly raised his head and shouted, "student Tian Lu was born in a civilian family, but he's only in his teens. He bears the high hopes of his family, worries about his parents, has trouble eating and sleeping. Fortunately, he was a child in the exam. How can he offend the strong and powerful, but what can he do except forbearance?"

With tears in his eyes, Tian Lu suddenly tore open his clothes and bare his upper body, revealing scars, bruises, knife wounds and scalds.

Tian Lu blushed and said: "I'll compromise, Ni Xian will intensify! I'll report to the Academy, and Ni Xian will use his strength to oppress people! My father will ask the government for help, and Ni Xian will defuse it! If I continue to fight, Ni Xian will cut off my future, destroy my family and kill my parents, what can I do! What can I do! How can a humble person defeat a powerful noble family! Fang Xusheng, tell me! Tell me how can I defeat!"

At last, Tian Lu's tears swirled in his eyes and never fell.

The county government is quiet.

"So, Ben Sheng is coming!" Fang Yun's tone eased, as if he was afraid of hurting Tian Lu, but it was like a sharp weapon, which frightened many people.

Tian Lu knelt down on the spot, burst into tears, cried and shouted: "Sir, the students sued Ni Xian and others for bullying the people together with bullies! Maiming the students! Harming the academy! Colluding with officials! Ask Lord Xu Sheng to make decisions for the students and return justice to the students! Return the world to Qingming!"

"The county will give you justice! It's better to have a tomb sweeping day!"

Pop!

When Fang Yun patted the startling wood, an invisible force spread in all directions. That force contained the anger of the head of a county, and it was like the roar of the people of a county.

"Ni Xian, what Tian Lu said, can there be empty words!" Fang Yun looked straight at Ni Xian.
