After rebirth, the Queen and I are on the run.

Chapter 430 Be Honest

A general amnesty had just been declared and the court was celebrating, so Magistrate Kang did not want to cause any incidents such as killing his fellow villagers.

He finally agreed, but said: "I will only give you half an hour to persuade them. If the people of Wujia Village still don't return to the village when the time is up, County Lieutenant Yang will lead the troops to drive them away."

If you lead the troops to drive them away, there will be casualties!

Village Chief Zhou was shocked, realizing that County Magistrate Kang was really angry, and said solemnly: "Thank you for giving the villagers a chance. I will persuade them to go back within the specified time."

Well, County Magistrate Kang nodded and asked Village Chief Zhou to leave.

Master Han was afraid that his father-in-law would suffer, so he talked to County Magistrate Kang and led a few yamen runners out, saying, "Father-in-law, I'll go with you."

Village Chief Zhou: "Okay."

The father-in-law and the son-in-law took the yamen runners and called Zhou Erye, Village Chief Kong, Village Chief Miao, Clan Chief Lu, Grandpa Qin and others, and rushed to the city gate together.

……

At the city gate, many people gathered to watch the excitement as the people from Wujia Village arrived.

"Hey, are you the people of Wu Laonie's clan?"

"Have you heard about the way Wu Laonie and Wu Danie played so wildly in the village?"

Wu Danie is Uncle Wu.

The people in Wujia Village looked unhappy when asked this question. They lowered their heads, turned their heads, or covered their heads with cloth. In short, no one answered.

"People from the same village, if someone eats meat, the news will spread to the whole village. They must know about such a big thing, but they are deliberately covering it up!"

Wu Ajun glanced at Wu Baman, Wu Shishan, Wu Youliang, Wu Youfu, Wu Shiqi...

The five men immediately stood up with their sons and refuted the county town people: "You are slandering us. That crazy woman Huang Xianniang was sold to the Wu family. She is a slave. Whatever she is asked to do is her duty!"

"We didn't hear that she was forced. We only heard that she coveted the better life of Wu Lichang's family. She refused to leave even when her uncle came to take her home, and she even severed ties with her uncle because of this!"

"Wu family, why are you still talking about such old shit? Huang Wu and Wu Xingzu have confessed that they only sent Huang Xianniang to work for the Wu family, and the indenture was only made after the incident at Fenfangyuan!"

"Wu Xingzu, your village chief's grandson, said that he personally saw your village chief and Wu Da forcing Huang Xianniang. They were afraid that she would tell others, so they gave her a mute drug. Wu Xingnan also beat and scolded her every day. Her body was covered with bruises from the beatings!"

"When Huang Xianniang first came to the Wu family, she was beaten every day. Were you deaf and didn't you hear it? You clearly heard it but didn't care. You deserve to be infamous in your village!"

"Oh, people in the county town are really knowledgeable. This word is an idiom." The peddler who came to the county town to purchase goods exclaimed.

After hearing this, the people in the county felt proud and started to refute the Wu family even more vigorously: "The government has already investigated the Wu and Wu families' scandal thoroughly, and even the evildoers have confessed their crimes. You people in Wu Village should stop quibbling... If you speak for the beasts, be careful of retribution!"

Damn it, aren’t people in the county town known for being respectable? Why are they even more harsh in scolding people than those country folk?

Wu Baman and the others were speechless after being scolded, and could only talk about other things: "We don't want to talk to you, please get out of the way, we want to go to the county government office to see the county magistrate and discuss the funeral of Wu Lichang."

"No, it's not safe for so many of you to enter the county town. You can't enter!"

Half of the Wu family had arrived, and the place looked very crowded.

Wu Baman and his men seized on the incident and immediately started shouting, "This is bullying! The county people are bullying the country people. Country people are not allowed to enter the city. We are good citizens and have done nothing bad. Why are you not allowing us to enter the city?"

After hearing this, their mothers and wives immediately sat down, slapped their legs and cried: "People in the county are bullying us, they don't treat us country people as human beings..."

"Wu family, what do you want to do? Don't you think you've lost enough shame?!" Village Chief Zhou yelled and walked over with his cane.

Mr. Zhou and two other members of the Zhou family were protecting him, fearing that something might happen to him.

When Wu Ajun saw the old village chief Zhou, his eyes darkened.

Wu Baman and the others shouted disdainfully: "Village Chief Zhou, this is our Wu family's business, and has nothing to do with your Zhou family. Get out of the way quickly. If we bump into you later, our Wu family will not be responsible!"

At his age, if he gets hit, he might have a stroke and become paralyzed.

Village Chief Zhou sneered and showed the appointment document from the government office: "I don't want to manage you, but now I am the head of the West Village in Taifeng Town, so I have to manage you!"

What? Old man Zhou really became the village head, and the position of village head of their Wu family is gone!

The Wu family was heartbroken and shouted, "We don't believe it. The position of village head belongs to our Wu family. We want to go see the county magistrate and ask him face to face!"

Village Chief Zhou cursed: "Ah, you are so shameless. This is a matter decided by the government. You are nothing. What qualifications do you have to make a fuss? What qualifications do you have to meet the county magistrate?!"

He pointed at them and said, "Look at how many of you there are. Are you planning to attack the county town?"

This is a capital crime punishable by beheading. The Wu family was afraid and quickly denied it: "Old Zhou, don't talk nonsense. We didn't mean that!"

Ha, Village Chief Zhou sneered: "No such intention? Then what do you mean? Are you here to help Wu Liukui and help him force the government to give him the position of village chief?!"

The Wu family was shocked and lowered their heads guiltily, wondering how did Old Man Zhou know about this?

How do you know?

Of course it was because you made too much noise and were seen by the people in Zhoujia Village!

Village Chief Zhou said: "Humph, Wu Liukui only had this bad idea. But he failed and ended up in jail. If you don't want to go to jail, just go back to Wujia Village and live a good life!"

"What? Uncle Liu Kui was arrested? When did it happen? Is it true?" The Wu family was shocked, but also felt a little lucky and thought it was impossible.

Village Chief Zhou said, "Not only was Wu Liukui arrested, but also the twenty Wu family members who came with him to the county were arrested. Wu Sisheng and his men are also in jail. If you don't believe me, go to jail and keep them company now!"

"You guys are so ignorant and fearless that you actually believed Wu Liukui's lies and came to the city gate in groups to clamor. If you take your actions seriously, it's like gathering a crowd to cause trouble. In serious cases, your entire clan can be executed!"

hiss!

The Wu family gasped in fear. Some smart women had already pulled their husbands and sons away, whispering, "Stop making trouble, retreat quickly. If you get caught, there's no money to save you."

The villagers were all afraid of officials, and soon several families of the Wu family left.

Wu Baman and his men were anxious, and shouted, "Brothers, we can't leave. Our Wu family is the victim. We must see the county magistrate, ask about the situation, and take the bodies of Wu Lichang and his son before we can return to the village!"

He shouted again: "We are of the same tribe, we are of one mind!"

If you are not of the same mind and you desert the battlefield, the village will not help you if your family encounters problems in the future.

Maybe Wu Baman and the others will team up to make trouble for your family.

Village chief Zhou heard the unfinished threat.

Village Chief Zhou stopped trying to persuade them and just shouted, "Lizhang Wu is dead and has been convicted. Those members of the Wu family who don't want to be implicated by the evildoer should go home now. If you don't listen, you will bear the consequences!"

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Mr. Zhou was stunned: "Dad, are you leaving now?"

Are you going to just come here and say some useless harsh words and then just leave?

Wouldn’t that be a bit too embarrassing?

Village Chief Zhou glared at him, but had to teach him a lesson: "If you can't persuade me, then stop talking nonsense and just use your power directly."

Mr. Zhou Er suddenly realized what was going on and hurriedly supported the old village chief Zhou and walked into the city.

Not long after, the father and son saw County Lieutenant Yang who was waiting with his troops.

Village Chief Zhou bowed and said, "Please ask the county lieutenant to arrest some of the Wu family's troublemakers...especially a man named Wu Ajun."
