Lou Er took out another iron chain from somewhere, swung it around in his hand twice, and laughed dryly:

"It turns out that Master Lu is also an accomplice!"

"I'm not!" Lu Xiaoli subconsciously refuted quickly!

"This is your mother's confession, how could it be false?" Lou Eryi waved his hand: "Tie him up!"

A group of soldiers rushed forward like wolves and tigers, punching and kicking him, and successfully put an iron chain around Lu Xiaoli's neck!

"Son, mother didn't mean it, you have to believe me!" Wanniang cried so hard that her eyes were wet. If there hadn't been two women supporting her, she would have collapsed into a pile of mud!

But the two women around her looked disgusted:

"Godfather once said, 'If you keep company with the good, you will be good.' She's so stupid, won't we become stupid too?"

"It's okay. I'll throw this woman away later and then get closer to the lady. I should be able to make up for it!"

While they were talking, Lu Xiaoli had been tied up like a dumpling. No one knew who had done this, but half of his face was swollen and two and a half teeth were sticking out of his mouth!

The crowd was silent for a while, but soon it became more and more boiling like boiling water with firewood added!

"This group of soldiers from the capital are different from before. They actually dared to attack the descendants of the Lu family!"

"Is the Lu family really doomed?"

"After making such a fuss for so long, no one from the government office has appeared. It seems that the government office will not side with them anymore!"

"Then can we avenge our vengeance?"

"I'm still a little afraid. If the Lu family turns over, wouldn't my family be doomed?"

"If you don't dare, then I'll go! Anyway, I'm the only one left in my house. At worst, I can go downstairs to find my wife and son!"

"Sir, I have a grievance to appeal!"

A man jumped out from the crowd and knelt down beside the old man: "I'm going to sue Lu Qirui for taking human life! He killed four people in my family!"

"Oh?" Lou Er's eyes lit up, he raised his sword, looked around, patted Lu Xiaoli on the back, and sat down with his sword:

"Tell me in detail!"

The person who made the complaint was a middle-aged man. Although the air in Western Shu had already become a little chilly, he was still wearing a short jacket that exposed his waist. Seeing Lou Er sitting on Lu Xiaoli's back without a care in the world, he became even more courageous!

"To answer your question, Xiaomin is an oil seller. Five years ago, Xiaomin married a wife. She is down-to-earth and hardworking. She never complains about being tired when she goes to the streets with Xiaomin to do business. In less than a year, she gave Xiaomin a big fat son. But one day, she was alone guarding the oil stall with her son in her arms. Lu Qirui's sedan passed by and insisted that Xiaomin's oil had smoked him. He ordered people to beat him up. Xiaomin's wife felt distressed and went forward to argue, but was beaten to death by Lu's family. Poor Xiaomin's son was not even a hundred days old when he was beaten to death by these beasts! Xiaomin's parents heard the noise and went out. Seeing the tragic death of their daughter-in-law and grandson, they were heartbroken and stopped Lu Qirui's sedan to let him go. But the sedan not only did not stop, but also ran over Xiaomin's parents! After being carried back home by neighbors, the two elderly people died in less than a moment!"

When the middle-aged man said this, he was choked with sobs and couldn't speak!

"I rushed back home, only to see four dead bodies, all of them incomplete, with their skin torn and flesh exposed!"

"I went to file a complaint with the government, but the government said it was a false accusation. Not only did they not accept my complaint, they also beat me up!"

"I have been lying in bed for two months. If it weren't for the help from my neighbors, I would have died long ago!"

"How could such a thing happen?" Lou Er stared, "Such arrogance, and the government actually doesn't care?"

"My Lord, you don't know that in Mengfeng City, and even in the whole of Western Shu, the barking of a dog from the Lu family is more effective than a human speaking! The group of adults in the government office are all dogs of the Lu family, fed fat by the Lu family, and designed to bite people for the Lu family!"

"Bah!" Lu Qirui spat, "What a fabrication! My Lu family has always been law-abiding. I wonder who ordered you to come and slander me? You'd better produce evidence, otherwise slandering the government is a capital crime!"

The middle-aged man was not scared away when he heard this, but hatred burst out in his eyes:

"What's the use of a capital crime? I won't die! Today I have confessed all my grievances. Even if I go to hell, I will have done justice to my parents and my wife!"

After saying this, the middle-aged man turned his knees and kowtowed fiercely to the crowd:

"Neighbors, you didn't dare to testify before, I don't blame you, but this time I beg you to be my witness. I won't talk about the next life, but when I have redressed my injustice, if I still have a life left, I will work like a slave for you!"

After a few hard knocks on the head, the middle-aged man's forehead was soon covered in blood!

The crowd became agitated, some covered their faces and could not bear to watch any longer, some quietly stepped back, and some even had tears in their eyes!

"I'll testify for you!" An old woman walked out tremblingly. Her clothes were covered with patches and one of her eyes was sunken, obviously she was blind!

"Good boy, stop kowtow, I'll testify for you!" The old woman knelt down with difficulty:

"My Lord, I am willing to testify for the victim. I saw what happened with my own eyes. It was the Lu family who knocked over the oil tank first, but they said the oil fumigated their master. The victim's wife went forward to argue with them with her child in her arms, but was beaten to death. Lu Qirui also gave the order in person from inside the carriage to run the victim's parents over. Everything I said is true. If I lie, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death!"

Lou Er was excited: "Great, now there is a witness, the case can be judged!"

"Wait a minute!" Lu Qirui interrupted Lou Er and said, "Where have I seen you, old woman?"

The old woman knelt on the ground and immediately raised her head after hearing what Lu Qirui said:

"Master Lu, it's amazing that you still remember me!"

Lu Qirui was startled, and suddenly shouted: "Her testimony does not count, she has a grudge against me, she is colluding with others to frame me!"

Lou Eryi raised an eyebrow: "Any grudge? What grudge? Can Master Lu tell me in detail?"

However, Lu Qirui pursed his lips tightly, looking annoyed!

The old woman sneered, "Master Lu, why don't you let me tell you?"

Without waiting for Lu Qirui to answer, she slowly said, "I am not from Western Shu. Ten years ago, my husband worked as a guard for the Lu family, so I followed him here. I can embroider, and my craftsmanship is pretty good. The masters of the Lu family like my craftsmanship very much, so I have to make myself familiar to the masters of the Lu family!"

After that, she turned to Madam Lu and said, "Madam Lu, it's been a long time since we last met. I wonder if you still remember the dress with plum blossoms in the snow that I embroidered for you that year?"

Madam Lu stared at the old woman for a long while, then sighed, "Are you Hua Niang? You suddenly stopped coming to the mansion, and I missed you for a long time. How come you have become like this now?"

The old woman smiled with a look of joy and sadness: "Mrs. Lao is worried about you. Hua Niang has no family now. People without a home are like dogs that have lost their homes. How can they be better?"

"Your husband is an expert in Kung Fu, and you have two grown-up sons. Where are they?"
