He desperately reminded himself in his heart: Don't be too greedy! Try the case carefully!
These soldiers who can't read a single word are not reasonable people.
There is a military governor in the provincial capital who likes to go to the yamen to handle cases from time to time.
That old man is a weirdo. He makes judgments without considering the cause and effect or looking at the evidence. He just follows his own will.
He felt that the plaintiff had a pointed face and didn't look like a good person, so he found the plaintiff guilty.
If he felt sorry for the defendant, he would beat the plaintiff with a stick until the plaintiff "confessed on the spot."
Alas, the Commander Ma I met was rude and domineering. He seemed to be fine, but who could guarantee that he would not turn against me?
These warlords are so rough when doing things, they don't even have any rules or methods.
But they have guns in their hands, so they can show off their power in his court.
The magistrate sighed silently in his heart and did not have much enthusiasm for the trial.
In contrast, Commander Ma followed with big strides, walked past the county magistrate, and sat directly in the court.
County Magistrate: ... Damn it, I am the County Magistrate! Ma Dadan, you reckless man, you have taken my seat, where do you want me to sit?
The magistrate cursed furiously inwardly, but his face remained flattering. "Yes! Yes! Commander Ma, please take a seat!"
He asked the officer to drag a stool and sat down below Commander Ma.
Commander Ma shook his head from side to side, as if trying to feel whether the magistrate's chair was comfortable to sit on.
The magistrate pursed his lips tightly. If possible, he really didn't want to see such a crude warrior who didn't know how to sit or stand properly.
Humph, there's no needle on the chair, why the hell are you shaking it around?
Commander Ma swayed for a long time before he seemed to adapt to the hard chair.
His eyes began to move around the eucalyptus table again.
There was a box containing the official seal, a bamboo tube for the yamen papers, as well as writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstone.
Of course, what Commander Ma was most curious about was the gavel.
He held it in his hand, looked left and right, and then, under the magistrate's disdainful gaze, Commander Ma slammed the gavel on the table.
"mighty!"
The officers on both sides, holding fire sticks in their hands, shouted out as usual.
Commander Ma was first startled by the sudden shouting, and then he seemed to have discovered some new toy.
"Ah, just one knock and the court is already silent."
Moreover, that feeling of solemnity and majesty suddenly emerged.
When Commander Ma heard the word "mighty", he couldn't help but sit up straight.
He came from a grassroots background and had a deep-seated awe for the government.
Although he now has soldiers in his hands, even the county magistrate, who was once respected by him, now stands beside him in a servile manner.
However, when he sat in the court and heard the sound of the gavel, he couldn't help but feel afraid.
"Commander Ma, it's time to summon the plaintiff!"
Seeing Commander Ma standing there in a daze with the gavel in his hand, the magistrate felt disgusted in his heart, but still had a fawning smile on his face.
He whispered a reminder.
"Oh! Yes!"
Commander Ma came to his senses and imitated what he had seen in the theater. He slammed the gavel hard and shouted in a pretentious tone: "Bring the prisoner!"
The magistrate wanted to close his eyes, "Commander Ma, it's not the criminal! It's the plaintiff!"
"Hey! I know! But what if the accuser is making a false accusation?"
Commander Ma smiled awkwardly, and then began to try to save the relationship with a stubborn attitude.
Gu Qingcheng, who had just stepped into the court, heard these words that left her speechless.
What kind of crappy officials are these? They haven't even tried the case yet, but they already determined that the plaintiff had made a false accusation!
Huoshui, however, rolled on the ground with laughter, "Haha! This gentleman is truly a man of discerning eyes."
Isn’t Gu Qingcheng making a false accusation?
Humph, he is indeed a person whose character value is almost breaking the bottom line.
After inheriting the original owner's identity, instead of helping the original owner to compensate the victim, he even went further and wanted to file a complaint!
Look at how self-righteous she is. Even when she was caught cheating in public, she was able to make excuses to clear herself of the crime.
To be honest, as an intelligent assistant, it is a bit unbearable to watch the disaster.
"Unjust! This common woman is wronged!"
"My Lord, you love the people like your own children, and you are honest and upright. You must stand up for me!"
Realizing that the person trying the case might be a fool, Gu Qingcheng did not panic. She adjusted her mood and cried out sadly.
The original owner had a rather slim figure, and Gu Qingcheng had just played the role of a frail beauty for a few years in the previous world.
She was very familiar with the images of being weak and graceful, delicate and pitiful.
Although she has a purple pig head at the moment, the fragility and pitifulness that emanates from her bones can be clearly conveyed to the "audience".
"Oh, this woman looks so pitiful! And her voice is so clear and pleasant, she must not be a bad person!"
Commander Ma didn't see Gu Qingcheng's face clearly, but he thought her walking posture was very beautiful.
Well, he couldn't describe it, but it was very charming and even more realistic than the actors on the stage.
So, his heart instantly changed.
The magistrate: ...This rough old fellow is really a weirdo!
