Rouge wrong

Seeing Shen Ding's skill, Xu Xiucai couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat, and recalling the scene of that day was even more frightening.

The county magistrate yelled for the officials to stand in front of him to protect him, and at the same time yelled at Shen Cuo: "Big, bold Shen Cuo, do you still have the king's law in your eyes?!"

Shen Cuo folded his hands behind his back, raised his head and said, "It is because I have the law in my eyes that I am standing here today. I would like to ask the county magistrate, what crime have I committed?"

The county magistrate quickly looked at Xu Xiucai who was at the side, and Xu Xiucai immediately said: "You robbed the sons and daughters of the Wang family as slaves, and beat Tu Sansan who went to ask you to get Er Ya and Hu Zi back, causing serious injuries to the three of them, and offended others." For the crimes of betraying people slightly and restraining people with power, the penalty for this is one hundred sticks, three thousand sticks, and eighty sticks, respectively."

The so-called slightly selling people is to lure or sell civilians as slaves, and restraining people by force refers to the theory of both parties using force to restrain people without suing the officials, even private torture.

Shen Cuo nodded, and asked: "You said that I robbed the Wang family's children as slaves, is there any evidence? I have a government contract with Erya as evidence. She was hired by me to work in a grocery store and distribute money every month.

Her father, Wang Tiezhu, was idle and did not give birth, and her stepmother, Mrs. Liu, did not care about the two of them. She could only work in the grocery store while taking care of her younger brother. That's why the two of them were in my grocery store.

Years ago, when I went home, I left the two of them here to guard the store, and allowed them to go home. How could I blame others for betraying others? "

As she spoke, she looked at Erya, who bowed to the county with a trembling voice: "Everything that Shopkeeper Shen said is true, the villain's sister and brother are under the care of Shopkeeper Shen, not slaves in the Shen family."

When Wang Tiezhu heard this, he was so angry that he cursed: "You eat everything, since you are working in Shen's house, why is there only five taels of silver that she promised?

Shen Cuo deceived my father and daughter to be illiterate, but she said that day that all the villagers in Maoshanqian Village knew about it, and she could not deny it. "

The county magistrate saw a row of yamen servants standing in front of him, Shen Cuo and Shen Ding hadn't moved yet, calmed down a little, slapped the gavel and said angrily: "Is there such a thing? Shen Cuo, what else do you have to deny? "

Shen Cuo smiled lightly and said nothing, but it was Erya who spoke again: "Reporting to the master, it's not that shopkeeper Shen deducted the villain's wages, but the villain begged her for help.

The villain's father is addicted to gambling, and the family is already poor. The villain is afraid that he will use all his wages as gambling funds, so he asks shopkeeper Shen to save the villain. "

Erya's voice sounded very nervous, but she tried her best to raise her head, not wanting to show a trace of guilt, to prove that what she said was true.

"Has the county magistrate heard clearly? Erya and I have a serious employment relationship, so how can someone explain it?"

"You, you are talking nonsense! Master Qingtian, you can't be deceived by them. Erya must have been deceived and threatened by Shen Cuo to say such things!"

Wang Tiezhu excitedly yelled at the magistrate, causing the magistrate to frown slightly: "Quiet!"

Erya knew that her father was responsible for this matter, she had to come out and clarify it herself, so she could repay Shopkeeper Shen's kindness, and boldly said: "Treasurer Shen didn't deceive or threaten the villain, she saved the villain and younger brother several times.

If it weren't for her, the villain would have died of freezing, starving to death, or being sold by my daddy like a elder sister! "

When the people outside heard it, they were in an uproar.

The new emperor has been on the throne for more than ten years, and he has worked hard to govern. Even though Maoshan County is poorer, and the county magistrate is not a good official, there are very few people who want to sell their sons and daughters.

Even my daughter said so, I am afraid this matter is true.This Wang Tiezhu actually dared to come to the Yamen to sue his employer, it is really shameful.

"you you you you……"

Wang Tiezhu was so angry that his face was flushed red, and he was about to come up and beat Erya, but this time Shen Cuo didn't let Shen Ding do anything, he just turned his wrist lightly.

Everyone saw the folding fan in her hand spinning and flying out, heading straight for Wang Tiezhu's chest.

Wang Tiezhu was hit by the small fan, and fell to the ground in response, and the fan had returned to Shen Cuo's hand again.

"I also ask the county magistrate to be clear. I have Erya as a witness, and this Wang Tiezhu is so despicable that he is a father in vain."

The county magistrate originally wanted to ignore 21 and teach Shen wrong a lesson, how would they give her a chance to reason?

However, at this moment, he couldn't beat him, he couldn't even talk about it, and he was completely devastated.

At this moment, the middle-aged man who had been standing silently took a step forward.

"It's just like shopkeeper Shen said, you didn't offend anyone, but the evidence of your wounding is solid. My subordinates, Tu Sansan, have not recovered yet, how can you justify it?"

Shen Cuo was full of doubts, and said puzzledly: "You said the evidence is solid, what kind of evidence is it? The testimony of Tu San and others?

First of all, according to the testimony just now, it proves that I did not rape the two of you, it is very strange for you to send someone to ask for it.

Next, I would like to ask, when did the three of them come to be the important person in my grocery store. "

"On December 29th!"

"Oh, I was not in the grocery store that day, and I only came back in the second year of junior high school. The boatman at the pier can testify to that."

"That's right, you are not here, but your guard Shen Ding is here. Tu San was imprisoned by him for three days, tortured, and hung up at the gate of the gambling house in the early morning of the third day of junior high school. The methods are extremely cruel. The testimony of the three is here , and ask the county magistrate to take a look."

Wang Qingfa said and handed several stacks of papers to Catcher Wang: "If you are worried, you can call three people to testify in court."

Before the county magistrate could speak, Shen Cuo followed Wang Qingfa's words and said: "It's just right, then please ask the county magistrate to ask three people to come to the court to confront me face to face, so that we can convince people with reason, right?"

The county magistrate and Wang Qingfa looked at each other.

"It is said that Tusan and Sansan will go to court."

Several people had already prepared, and after a while, Tu San and the others, who were wrapped up like mummified corpses, were carried into the lobby.

When the onlookers saw it, they were immediately amazed.

Although these people are local snakes in Maoshan Town, they often use the name of the county magistrate to run amok in the county and collect debts.

I didn't expect such a bully to be so miserable today, it's really satisfying.

Everyone felt that the ones who could deal with these ruffians must be masters like Shen Ding and Shen Cuo, but at the same time worried that if these two people did what they did, they would be sent to prison by the county magistrate.

When Tu San saw Shen Cuo, he was already trembling with fright, crying and wailing bitterly, his fear did not seem to be fake at all.

Seeing this scene, Wang Qingfa asked sharply: "Shen Cuo, do you recognize the three of them? Seeing them like this, do you still have to argue?"

"Hmm... It seems familiar, Shen Ding, don't you think it looks familiar?"

"Reporting to the shopkeeper, it looks familiar, like the gangster who invaded the grocery store on the night of December 29th.

But I just drove the three of them away, because I was worried about the emptiness of my home and didn't dare to pursue them...

Could it be that the county magistrate knew about the crimes of these three people and arrested them first? "

"Nonsense, they are looking for Er Ya, how could they be the villains who invaded your grocery store?"

"Oh? Then I want to ask, when did Tu San and others come to my grocery store?"

"They leave at noon, and they should be at your grocery store before that."

"Is that so? That's strange. I also have a testimony here, and I want to ask the county magistrate to have a look."

After receiving the instructions, Shen Ding also took out a stack of rice paper from his sleeve and wanted to hand it to Wang Butou. Unexpectedly, Wang Butou was afraid of him and subconsciously stepped back.

Shen Cuo couldn't help laughing: "My grocery store is at the entrance of the village, and every day there are farmers farming in the farmland outside the grocery store.

Although it is winter, there are still many villagers tidying up their farmland and preparing for the next season of planting food.

The latest among them returned home at Youshi, but they had never seen anyone come to the grocery store to look for Erya.If the county magistrate doesn't believe it, they can also let them testify in court. "

As she spoke, she glanced at Tu San lightly again, and asked, "Did you really arrive before Weishi? Or...in fact, you entered the house after nightfall to commit murder!"

"I, I, we, we didn't break into the house and commit murder, so please ask the county magistrate to avenge us.

We went to find Erya and Huzi that day, but Shen Ding took them away halfway through, because the villagers didn't see us! "

"Caught by Shen Ding halfway? We didn't know you before, how could he take you away halfway?

How do you know that you are here to look for Erya and Huzi?Even if you really came to look for Erya and Huzi, since I didn't treat them badly, why should I be afraid of you coming to look for them?You are contradicting yourself every sentence, and you are the real spitting people! "

"Also, Wang Qingfa sent three people to my grocery store. They haven't returned for three days, but you never reported to the officials, and you never sent someone to look for them. If it wasn't because of something wrong, why did it happen?"

"When these three people return to you, you will have peace of mind, and you will frame me, right?

What you said is just a word of wealth, and if one plan fails, another one will be made.When I settled down in Maoshanqian Village, you sent people to collect protection fees.

In addition to paying the taxes of the imperial court, when will our people of Dayan have to pay other people's money?As soon as the demon sect was destroyed, do you want to follow in its footsteps and cause trouble? "

Wang Qingfa didn't know that Shen Cuo was not only so eloquent, but also powerful and bold in martial arts.

I just thought that she didn't dare to beat Xu Xiucai that day, and she certainly wouldn't dare to make trouble in the yamen today. How could she have expected that she would dare to completely disregard the majesty of the court.

"Lord county magistrate, this serious wrongdoing, despising the imperial court, violently resisting the law in the yamen, and injuring the yamen servants, has committed all kinds of crimes and deserves death.

Let's stop arguing with her, the more than 100 yamen servants in the Maoshan county government are really afraid of her?If she is really stubborn to the end today, we will punish her on the spot! "

The county magistrate immediately agreed and shouted: "Catch Shen Cuo and others for me. If they resist, they will be executed on the spot!"

Although he was afraid in his heart, he also knew that he would not stop doing one thing, anyway, it was not him who charged forward.

Following her order, the government yamen rushed in densely packed with arresters, yamen servants, and even jailers, obviously planning to catch the turtle in the urn a long time ago.

Seeing such a scene, the people outside had fled one after another, and only dared to watch from a distance, while Shen Cuo was still standing upright, calm and unhurried.

"Ah, cover your ears."

Erya suddenly heard Shen Cuo whispering so, and grabbed her brother and covered her ears without hesitation.

Before the rest of the people realized Shen Cuo's intentions, they heard her suddenly shout.

Immediately, I felt blood rushing in my chest, and my ears and nose were buzzing. People who were closer to me fell limply to the ground, unable to get up again.

The county magistrate even fell over from his chair. In his panic, he couldn't get up several times, and finally crawled under the table with his head in his arms.

Shen Cuo laughed loudly, holding a jade tablet at some point in his hand, holding it high above his head, and said in a loud voice: "The imperial censor of the capital, Shen Cuo, is here, you can catch him soon!"

I saw the word "Cha" engraved on the jade tablet, which was the token held by the officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
