Chapter 501: Ma criminal enters court for the sake of the people
In the back hall of the third courtyard of the Jiangning County government, the rectification campaign against corruption and clean government, which was originally recommended by the Minister of Personnel and Cabinet Li Shichun, was handed over to the inspection team composed of the officials in this hall!
The team leader is the first-selected person in charge, the Inspectorate, the Left Censor-in-Chief, the fourth rank, Yuan Wenzhong.

Deputy, Inspectorate, Censor, seventh rank, Liao Gengshen.

Langzhong of the Ministry of Revenue, fifth rank, Lin Zhiwan.

Langzhong of the Ministry of War, fifth rank, Zeng Ji.

These four people are responsible for specific inspections in various prefectures, but behind the scenes, they are also involved in many related interests such as the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Personnel, and the Ministry of War.

Here we have Ni Yuanlu's faction from the Northern Party, as well as cronies of Qiu Weizhen, the leader of the Southern Party, and Shi Kefa's branch of the Ministry of War. The composition is complicated, with each party fighting and scheming against each other, and ganging up on the dissidents. This is pervasive, as can be seen from this.

Today we are auditing the Ma Weimin case. Each of the four people has their own selfish thoughts and undercurrents are surging. A good show is about to begin!
"cough cough"

"Hey, colleagues."

"Ma is a criminal for the people. He is involved in a case of embezzlement in transferring grain from the south to the north for military supplies. I think you have all read through the case files before, right?!"

Yuan Wenzhong, then the Left Censor-in-Chief of the Inspectorate, sat at the chairman's chair and spoke clearly to correct the situation.

Yuan Wenzhong, now seventy-nine years old, was born in the Hanlin Academy. He has the spirit of a scholar and is a decent person. Although he once belonged to the Donglin lineage, he never partisanship.

This time, the reason why Qiu and Ni were fighting and they brought in this old Buddha to support them was that Emperor Hongguang wanted to find a compromise between the two factions!
"cough"

Unexpectedly, Yuan Wenzhong's suggestion fell through, and I could only cough again in embarrassment.

Glancing around, he saw the staff flipping through rolls of paper on their desks, and only the sound of paper folding could be heard. Apart from these three, the other three remained silent and no one responded.

Seeing this tense situation, Yuan Wenzhong sighed helplessly.

"Oh, okay!"

"Since you have nothing else to say, then let Ma Weimin come over and we'll start."

"cough!"

"cough cough"

Snapped!
As soon as he finished speaking, the alarm clock suddenly fell!
"Here comes someone!"

"Bring the former Jiangning grain officer to court to try the criminal Ma!" Yuan Wenzhong ordered.

At the same time, it is precisely at this point in Kung Fu!

On the other side of the screen wall behind Yuan Wenzhong, Xiao Jingchuan and Yue Xiu's close conversation also came to an abrupt halt due to the sound of the startled wood!

Xiao Lang quickly gestured to stop talking and listened attentively to the dead silence in the front hall. It was not a good idea to proofread any further for the moment, so he and Yue Xiu exchanged a glance, tiptoed away, moved lightly, and sat down on the armchair beside him, waiting to read the rest of the text in the front hall.

A few moments!

Click.
Click.
Ma Weimin was dressed in prison clothes, guarded by yamen runners on both sides, with his hands and feet shackled. He stepped over the threshold and entered the hall!

"Reporting to all the superiors, Ma Weimin, the deputy magistrate Ma, has been brought here!" The person who spoke came immediately in front of Ma Weimin, who was the county magistrate of Jiangning County.

After he finished speaking, he bowed and clasped his fists, and Yuan Wenzhong in the hall responded by nodding.

"kindness!"

After saying this, the Dianshi turned around and tried to retreat.

But when he dismounted from his horse and served the people, he was caught off guard and someone suddenly grabbed the Dianshi's arm.

"That, brother!"

"I, my legs and feet have always been in bad condition. It's an old problem. You know that!"

"Help my brother to bring a chair here, thank you, ah, thank you!"

Ma Weimin has a gangster temperament, and he seems to be not afraid at all in this trial. His attitude towards the Dianshi is just like that of a normal colleague, and it is hard to tell what is going on.

After all, in Jiangning, the grain commissioner and the county magistrate have worked together for many years, and most of the young masters are old acquaintances, so they are naturally familiar with each other.

Ma Weimin acted so carefree, and if it weren't for the shackles on his hands and feet, no one would notice anything wrong with him. That's it!

"Uh, this"

The Dianshi was not nervous when he was accused of committing the crime at the hands of the people. It was just that he could not do anything because of the pressure in the hall.

As he listened to the words, he raised his eyes and turned his head to glance at Yuan Wenzhong who was sitting behind the desk.

Upon hearing that it was a matter of personal feelings, Left Censor-in-Chief Yuan Wenzhong was reluctant to blame the person too much. He avoided the person's gaze impatiently and did not express his opinion, which meant that he was tacitly approving!
So, seeing the Dianshi like this, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Got it!"

"Please wait, I'll go and move it!" The registrar came closer and spoke in a low voice.

After he finished speaking, he moved swiftly and brought an armchair from the corner of the hall, which was stable and easy to carry, and placed it behind Ma Weimin.

After finishing the job, he clasped his fists towards him, bowed and retreated to the side of the back door of the hall. The guy moved back and forth quickly and swiftly. If he wanted to leave, he might be trying to hide because he was afraid of getting into trouble!
Ma Weimin is a man who usually does not show any sharp edges. He laughs a lot and moves lavishly, but he is very good at observing people's words and expressions, and sometimes even better than others.

As he looked up and saw the Dianshi like this, he suddenly felt alienated in his heart and snorted coldly, thinking that he was really a damn phoenix that had fallen from the shed and was worse than a chicken. The words of thanks that were just on the tip of his tongue were choked back when he saw this. He forced a smile at the corners of his mouth to mock himself.

Ma Weimin was feeling very melancholy at the moment. His legs were shaking, perhaps because he had been tortured in prison. His eyes were weak and his face was flushed. He did not have time to care about anything else and was ready to sit down and take a breath.

But at this critical moment!

In the hall which was dead silent, suddenly, a loud bang of the wake-up stick fell down again!
Snapped!
"stand up!"

Snapped!
Another loud noise startled the hall!
"I told you to stand up!"

The person who shouted loudly was the Inspectorate, the Censor, Liao Gengshen!
The reaction was huge and overwhelming!

The sudden sound reverberated in the hall like thunder, and everyone was horrified.

Let alone the protagonist Ma Weimin!

Ma Weimin was caught off guard by such a sudden shout. He shuddered all over and had to straighten himself up immediately, but his anger was also rising to his head!
His eyes were wide open, staring at Liao Geng's face!

"What's your name, position, and place of origin? Please report to me immediately!"

The Censor Liao Gengshen was not a pushover either. He took Ma Weimin's resentful look and kept talking back to him!
Ma Weimin narrowed his eyes slightly, considering his current situation. He was imprisoned and was in an embarrassing situation where he would suffer a loss of face. He could do nothing!

He then gritted his teeth and held his breath, his facial expression changing several times. After a long stalemate, he could not feel any pain, just a few words of yin and yang.

"Ah!"

"This officer, you look unfamiliar! Huh?!"
