Chapter 394 Scar
Zouxian Cheng was stunned and pointed at Qin Sanlang. Before he could say the curse, Qin Sanlang had disappeared.
After a while, he regained his breath, pointed in the direction where Qin Sanlang disappeared, and asked angrily: "Who is this man? How brave! A small soldier dares to ignore my order... I will punish him!" "
When Lu Hehua saw Zou County Cheng coming, she hurriedly shouted: "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, you have to save us. We didn't do anything, but we were dragged to the county government overnight. It's outrageous how they treat officials and their families." I take your brother-in-law seriously, brother-in-law, hurry up..."
"Shut up! Where did you come from? My in-law's family name is Hong, your maiden name is Lu, and my husband's family name is Niu. How could I have been your brother-in-law?" Zou County Cheng was very angry. This Lu family is really unreliable. How long has it been since then? Why are you still calling him brother-in-law? Is he afraid that others will not know that he spoils his concubine and destroys his wife? Is he afraid that others will not know that he intends to bend the law for personal gain and use his official position to save his concubine and his family?
Lu Hehua was stunned for a while after being yelled at, and then got angry: "Brother-in-law, are you not going to recognize us? Okay, okay, you really are planning to abandon the Lu family after seeing the suffering of our Lu family, you heartless old man . When you doted on my sister, you said that although you could not marry my plum blossom as your official wife, the Lu family is also your in-law family, and we treat it as serious relatives. Now you..."
"shut up!"
"shut up!"
"shut up!"
Three angry shouts came from Boss Lu, Zou Jiang, and Zou Xiancheng.
Zou Xiancheng was already ill. When Lu Hehua was so angry, his throat felt sweet, and a **** smell rushed straight into his throat. He was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
The Prime Minister of Zouxian County couldn't hold it back, but he was so angry that he pointed at Lu Hehua and couldn't say a word.
Master Shao took a few steps forward, came to Lu Hehua, and warned her in a low voice: "Shut up if you don't want to die. This has made us anxious. We will leave immediately and let your Lu family fend for themselves."
Master Shao was a scholar and a great concubine. He originally supported Zou Yuqian, but Zou Yuqian was too stupid and committed suicide.
Because of Zou Yuqian, the Prime Minister of Zou County hated Mrs. Zou's family to death, and planned to abandon Mrs. Zou's family and support Zou Yuzhen as the future head of the Zou family.
However, Master Shao knew that Zou Yuzhen was cold and cruel, and was not a good boss. Therefore, Master Shao did not want Zou Yuzhen to take over.
He is optimistic about... Zou Yukun's eldest son.
Although Zou Yukun was a fool, his eldest son was a good one. Although his knowledge was not as good as that of Zou Yuqian's son, Zou Yukun did not make Zou Xiancheng's concubine pregnant. Based on this alone, Zou Xiancheng would not hate him very much. Zou Yukun's son.
Now something happened to the Lu family. If Mr. Lu is really a runaway slave, then even if the Zou family spends money to buy Zou Yuzhen, Zou Yuzhen has a grandfather who is a runaway slave. It will be difficult for him to get a meritorious service in the future.
After scolding Lu Hehua, Master Shao came to Zou County Cheng and whispered to him: "Sir, if the Lu family really can't be saved, there is no need for you to break up with the county magistrate. It should be noted that no matter how important the Lu family is, it has no The Zou family is important, and you cannot let the Zou family fall into dire straits for the sake of irrelevant outsiders."
The Zou family has suffered too much loss recently. They are already the laughing stock of the county. If they get into trouble with the county magistrate again because of saving the Lu family, it will be more of a loss than the gain.
Xu County Magistrate holds in his hands the credit for removing half of Dachu, and his promotion is a certainty.
At this time, if you go against Magistrate Xu, in case Magistrate Xu gets into trouble, when he is transferred, please refer to Zou County Cheng's book before leaving. Someone from above will come to investigate Zou County Cheng, but they can't afford to do so.
Hearing this, Zou County Cheng finally calmed down and nodded to Master Shao: "Master Shao reminds me that you can't fight with the county magistrate."
He turned his head, glanced at the Lu family, his face darkened, and without saying a word, he was supported by Zou Jiang and went to the backyard of the county government office.
The pond in the backyard of the county government office was not far away. There was wind at Qin Sanlang's feet. After a while, he carried Mr. Lu to the pond. After untying the rope that tied Mr. Lu's hands, he threw Mr. Lu into the pond with a thud.
Mr. Lu was stunned. He was half floating on the water. He looked at Qin Sanlang and cursed: "Young man of the Qin family, how dare you avenge your private life!" Qin Sanlang ignored him at all and took a long bamboo pole handed over by Jiang County Lieutenant. , and began to slap Mr. Lu in the water.
Mr. Lu was not stupid and had already noticed that Qin Sanlang had an ulterior motive for throwing him into the water. However, he just had this idea and had not yet figured out the reason why Qin Sanlang did this. The long bamboo pole was Call.
There were a few snaps and the bamboo pole hit him hard. Mr. Lu couldn't bear the beating and immediately dived into the water. After a while, he dived to the other side of the pond.
Magistrate Xu and the others stood by the pond and looked at them, nodding their heads... Mr. Lu can indeed swim. After a while, Mr. Lu tried to refute that he couldn't swim and that he didn't escape by swimming, but he probably wouldn't be able to do so.
When Qin Sanlang saw Zou County Cheng coming, he quickly ran to the other side of the pond and hit Mr. Lu again with a long bamboo pole.
"Young descendant of the Qin family, you are a wolf who can kill a thousand swords, you are trying to kill people." Mr. Lu scolded Qin Sanlang and dived into the water again. After a while, he appeared on the other side of the pond.
Zou Xian Cheng frowned and asked the magistrate in a bad tone: "Sir, what are you doing? Let a young man beat an old man like this. If word gets out, I'm afraid it will harm your official reputation."
County Magistrate Xu looked at Zou County Cheng and smiled and said: "Master Zou is too worried. Sanlang is just testing the suspect to prevent the suspect from recanting his confession in court."
Suspect?
Change your confession in court?
Does Magistrate Xu have any evidence against Mr. Lu?
Zou County Cheng was still thinking about it, but County Magistrate Xu had already said to Qin Sanlang: "Young descendants of the Qin family, drag Mr. Lu up, tie him up, and take him to the lobby in front."
After a while, Magistrate Xu was stunned and began to ascend the hall. He first announced Mr. Xue and asked him to tell everyone everything about the discovery that Mr. Lu was a runaway slave and what happened at Linglong Huafang. .
Mr. Lu turned pale when he heard this... Sure enough, someone discovered that he was a slave.
He immediately cried out: "It's unfair, I'm wronged. It was this man named Xue who hit my mule cart some time ago. After being scolded by the old man, he held a grudge and deliberately slandered the old man as a runaway slave and wanted to harm the old man's family... The old man I have never even been to Jiangnan, how could I be an escaped slave from Linglong Huafang?"
Mr. Xue smiled: "Huai Siliu, although you pretended to be a beggar and sold yourself under a false name, when you sold yourself, the deed of sale was kept in the Jinling government office. The Jinling government office has a slave registration book. You Can you deny it for a while, or can you deny it for a lifetime? Your Excellency has sent people to Jinling Mansion. In ten days at most, they can get the slave registration booklet of Jinling Mansion and come back to compare your fingerprints. As long as the threads of the fingerprints match, you can make excuses. No."
Mr. Lu's face turned pale and he almost fainted... But he couldn't be imprisoned now. He had to buy time for his family and use these ten days to escape. He also argued: "What Huai Siliu? The old man doesn't know you at all." What are you talking about? You said I am Huai Siliu, what evidence do you have? To sue without evidence is slander and you will go to jail!"
He then said to the county magistrate: "Sir, you have no evidence to prove that the villain is Huai Siliu. You cannot arrest the villain, you must let him go immediately!"
Magistrate Xu was startled. Indeed, before the slave registration booklet from Jinling Mansion was delivered, Mr. Lu could only be regarded as a suspected escaped slave. He could send people to keep an eye on the Lu family secretly, but he could not arrest the Lu family.
Now arresting the Lu family has broken the criminal law.
Mr. Xue was worthy of being a housekeeper for the Fu family. Hearing this, he smiled and said: "Huai Siliu, since you want to make such a quibble, let me tell you one more thing. Is the word Huai Siliu engraved on your back shoulder? ? This is the rule of Linglong Huafang. Every servant who sells himself as a slave will have words engraved on his back shoulder."
Then he said: "You are very smart. In order to cover up this past, you will definitely destroy those three words. But it is flesh. Once destroyed, it will leave scars. You can't say that you happen to have a bruise on your back shoulder." Its such a coincidence that the scar is there.
