New widow

Beaten to death, at this moment, Qiu Da knew that the prince's nature was extremely cold, and he also knew that he was afraid of dying, so Qiu Da said to the prefect: "What an injustice, what an injustice!"

"Come here, go and arrest Mrs. Liu." Since Mr. Wang said that he wanted to sell Liu Lanhua's official position, it was natural to arrest him. The officials responded, and then one of the officials said, "Sir, go and arrest me now. I'm afraid I won't be able to go to court today."

"Then there will be another trial tomorrow." Hearing the words "there will be another trial tomorrow," Prince Wang was stunned, and then he said dissatisfiedly: "There will be another trial tomorrow, so I have to stay in jail for another day?"

"You have to suffer for one day. Tomorrow, when someone comes to arrest you, you can naturally ask questions." This was also a delaying tactic by the prefect. The prince was very dissatisfied, but he had no choice but to follow the jailer back to the prison first. As for Qiu Da, he was dragged to death by the Yamen guards. Drag it back like a dog.

Qiu Da was thrown back into the prison and couldn't help but have tears in his eyes: "So, my wife is also going to be sold by the officials?"

Anyone who commits crimes against a female family member will naturally be betrayed by the officials, including the government officials. Qiu Da couldn't help crying: "Originally, I only did this for the sake of my family. I thought that our family must have some kind of wealth."

"For the sake of our family, this is unavoidable." The yamen servant did not leave. The jailer had already come over to greet him: "Brother Zhou, why are you still here?"

"This is an important prisoner. You have to be careful and don't let him die." After Brother Zhou finished speaking, he dropped a bottle of medicine and said, "Cover him with medicine."

"Brother Zhou has become more and more like a Bodhisattva in recent years." The jailer said with a smile and went to give Qiu Da medicine. Brother Zhou watched Qiu Da finish taking the medicine and then walked out of the cell. Brother Zhou did not

He went to the Yamen and walked out. Not far away, he saw Wan Dequan standing there.

Seeing Wan Dequan, Brother Zhou smiled: "Why, are you still waiting for me here?"

"Aren't you going to court today?" Wan Dequan asked back, and Brother Zhou smiled: "You're right. As for the master, I wanted to deal with it first, but this is a crime of beheading, and no one wants to have his whole family beheaded." die."

If the prince takes the blame, then the prince himself will die, but the rest of the Wang family will not be implicated. If Qiu Da is to bear the blame, then Qiu Da's wife and children will all be implicated. It doesn't matter if he dies, but his wife and children will also suffer. How can Qiu Da be willing to bear this crime?

Qiu Da is not willing to bear this charge, and the prefect does not dare to give in in front of everyone, so the case will be delayed. This will also perfunctory the prince and let him stay in jail longer. Anyway, the prince is in jail. There won't be any punishment here. When the conflict between Zhou Mansion and Shangshu Mansion is almost over, then this case can naturally be judged.

Wan Dequan smacked his lips and smiled: "Sure enough, all the officials in the world think the same thing."

"You dare to say it now that you have left the Yamen." Brother Zhou teased, and Wan Dequan also laughed: "Now, I am running such a small shop, but for what I have, I have to rely on you."

"You have a good niece now, and we are here to flatter you. Why do you have to say this?" Brother Zhou and Wan Dequan joked with each other. When they arrived at the shop, Wan Dequan asked Brother Zhou to come in and sit down. , Brother Zhou wanted to go to Zhuangzi to fetch the willow orchid flowers, so he naturally declined.

Wan Dequan entered the shop and waited for

Manager Li, who was there, said that the prefect wanted to bring Liu Lanhua to the court. Manager Li couldn't help but frown: "Why would Madam Kuang want to protect such a woman?"

"My own niece knows that she doesn't want to see this woman suffer." Wan Dequan said with a smile, and Manager Li also smiled: "Yes, if Mrs. Kuang is not such a person, then our family..." Manager Li Without saying anything else, he hurried back to report to Su Qiao.

When Manager Li came in, Su Qiao was talking to Zhou Le, with some pen and paper placed in front of her. When she saw Manager Li coming in, Su Qiao didn't stop and just said to Manager Li, "That's it."

"I went to court today. I saw that Prince Wang wanted to blame everything on Qiu Da, but Qiu Da was not willing to take all the blame. The two sides started to quarrel, so the magistrate ordered that Liu Lanhua be brought to the court. "After Manager Li said this, Su Qiao smiled: "Both of them are not good people. Now of course you push me and I push you. That's it. You get ready, I'll go to Zhuangzi over there."

"Ms. Kuang, this Liu Lanhua..." Although Manager Li asked, he still hesitated. Suqiao looked at Manager Li: "You must be thinking that people like Liu Lanhua have no way to survive. But It’s not easy to be a human being, and besides, she’s not wrong.”

A woman lost her father when she was young and had a weak mother. She came to live with her grandfather. Unexpectedly, her cousin had evil intentions. She was bullied but her mother could not make the decision for her. Such a woman had a pitiable background and could only help her. It's better to help him than to end up in a bad place after being betrayed by an official.

Manager Li probably went to arrange the car, but Zhou Le had already

He said to Suqiao, "I'm not as good as you."

"Why are you talking about this now?" Su Qiao looked at Zhou Le, and Zhou Le smiled at Su Qiao and said: "If I want to help this person, I have to think twice and think that this person is worth helping, then I will help. But. Sister, you have never thought of this."

"What are you talking about? The people I help are naturally worthy of helping." Zhou Le was stunned by these words, and then Zhou Le said softly: "But that willow orchid flower, in the eyes of the world..."

"Yes, she lost her virginity to several people, got married, and even caused Mrs. Du to be killed. If in other people's eyes, beauty is a disaster, she should be hanged with a rope." Su Qiao's tone was calm, but in Su Qiao's view , but she is a weak woman, and every step she takes is not what she wants to do. Why does such a person become a disaster for beauty? Obviously, she is so weak.

Reputation and status, these don’t matter anymore, then naturally what matters is the most authentic things about people, such as life, such as... Zhou Le quietly wiped the tears from his eyes, looked up with a smile on his face: "I want to be like my sister. .”

"You don't have to be like me." Su Qiao reached out and tapped Zhou Le's forehead: "You should go your own way." Zhou Le nodded desperately, Su Qiao smiled again, and Grandma Li came in to report that the carriage Already ready, Suqiao walked out.

After Su Qiao left, Grandma Li said to Zhou Le: "I heard that Mr. Su accompanied you during the Lantern Festival yesterday and walked a long way."

"Yes, it's the Lantern Festival..." Zhou Le said smoothly. Then Zhou Le realized something and looked at Grandma Li. Then Zhou Le smiled: "What are you thinking about?"

"I am

I feel that with the passage of time, perhaps Mr. Su..."
