Master fake high cold

Everyone is still silent, but this silence is different from just now. If there were people who blindly believed in Old Man Mu because of filial piety, they are all sober now.

The masters were even more eager to try, they no longer only thought about being wise and safe, they were not blind, and Li Jubai was not blind, otherwise how could they fall in love with such a person, what this girl said is probably true, what a pity.

The old dean is the leader, so how can he not see the situation clearly? Even if he was a little reluctant to be tied to the same boat with Mu Lan before, he has to be tied to the same boat now. Be more confident, okay?

He coughed lightly and said: "Although the old man is old, he has not yet reached the point where his eyesight is dim. Last night I witnessed these two people appearing in Mrs. Li's room in disheveled clothes, and they had a fight with Mu Lan. Afterwards, the Shaowang tribe wanted to act fiercely, Master Li resisted desperately in order to protect himself, and knocked him unconscious with a bench, and then the old man took the lead and reported to the official."

"Yes, I saw it too."

"I testify." The masters echoed one after another.

Mu Lan lowered her head, a smile flashed in her eyes, the disheveled clothes were the reason for these two people's panic, they took off their clothes before they could do anything, they deserved it.

I didn't expect the old dean to speak so beautifully, and put all the truth on their side. It's really worthwhile for her to put on a show.

Mu Lan put away her smile, she raised her head and said sadly: "If your lord thinks the words of the masters cannot be proved, then please punish the students. This matter has nothing to do with the masters, she is just helping out with kindness. It's just me, if your lord thinks it's not enough to convict them, you can simply convict the students, the master has treated me with great kindness, but I have caused her such an innocent disaster, I... I am unforgivable."

Her words were false, but part of her grief was true. It was because she felt worthless for the original owner. If it were her father and brother, she really didn't want to live anymore. No, according to her original temperament, she should be with this pair. Father and son fight to the death.

"It's not your fault, it's their fault." Li Jubai knew that Mu Lan might still be acting, but seeing that sad face, she felt sad for no reason, and stood up immediately.

She walked up to Mu Lan and looked at the county magistrate, and said in a cold voice: "The student is also guilty, so my lord should convict me and Mu Lan together."

"Master Li, why are you guilty? If you are guilty, then these witnesses are also guilty. If your lord wants to be sentenced, let me be sentenced together." The masters said in a hurry.

The old dean looked deeply at the county magistrate, would the county magistrate still want to show mercy to the Shao family at this time?If it is allowed to develop again, it will become a stupid official who does not know right from wrong.

When the county magistrate saw the look in the eyes of the old dean, he couldn't help but feel chills running down his spine. This is his mentor, is he dissatisfied with him?

How innocent he is, it is true that he has been an official for a long time and has a bad habit. He feels that adjudicating a case is like watching a play. He wanted to know how Mu Lan would respond on a whim, so he was not in a hurry to pronounce the sentence. That's it for now.

The county magistrate felt dizzy for a while, obviously he was a good official, but now he was being tricked by a bunch of pleading guilty, and he felt like he had to uphold justice like a duck on the shelf, what is this?

As soon as they lost their minds, the crowd of onlookers also joined in the fun, shouting that everyone was guilty one after another.

The county magistrate's face turned black immediately, you are guilty of pi, if you continue to fight, the guilty one will become an official.

He picked up the gavel and quickly patted it, and said in a deep voice: "Shaowang and Mutang are here to hear the sentence. The evidence of your crime is convincing, but you are stubborn and refuse to plead guilty. According to the law of Baiyue, you will be punished severely. You will be expelled from today. Both of them received eighty lashes each for meritorious service, and they retired."

The county magistrate angrily stood up and looked at Old Mu who was trying to stop him, his face darkened even more, and he shouted at the yamen servant: "Drag this troublemaker out of the court, and beat him twenty boards."

For a while, the sound of whipping, boarding and crying resounded through the county government office, and the people clapped their hands and made friends. Some old scholars even whispered that everyone should defy the power and seek justice together, forcing the county magistrate to dare not cover up. This result.

The county magistrate, who inexplicably took a big scapegoat, was very angry. He thought that in the future, the judgment of the case should be fast, accurate and ruthless, and he would never go to the theater again. It would be bad if he accidentally put his own reputation in it.

On the other side, on the way back, Li Jubai looked at Qianlu and said, "Is everything you said in the court true?"

Mu Lan chuckled lightly: "If I say it's true, will Master believe it?"

Li Jubai stopped in his tracks, pursed his lower lip, and said word by word: "You only borrowed money from me once, and my engagement to you is not a mutual love, and we don't know each other well."

Mu Lan: "..."

I let you say everything, what else can I say, since you don't believe me, why ask?

After returning to the county school, Mu Lan breathed a sigh of relief, she finally didn't have to worry about villains, and she could concentrate on preparing for the scientific examination.

Only in this way can he return to Beijing as soon as possible, and seek revenge for the dog thief who killed him. I don't know how his parents are now. He must be very sad to hear the news of her death.

However, it turned out that Mu Lan was too happy too early. Mu Tang was deprived of fame and was beaten to the point where he almost lost half his life. How could Papa Mu let her go.

This is the misunderstanding of her own class. In the capital, as the eldest lady of the Shangshufu, which girl who came to pick things up, the other party did not want to make a strong enemy in the court because of the wrongdoing, so they usually Avoid the serious and take the light and stop entanglement.

But in the three-acre land in Zhuxian County, the top official is the county magistrate. Ordinary people's feuds will not involve any official disputes.

Early in the morning, she had only attended half of the class when someone from Li's residence came.

Mu Lan hurried to the gate of Li's house and saw Mu Laopa sitting on the ground, crying with snot and tears, Li's family was vicious and his daughter was unfilial and unrighteous, ruining his precious son's future.

As soon as Mu Laopai saw Mu Lan, he rushed up to beat her, but before he could catch anyone, he was caught by the people of Li's residence first.

"I teach my daughter a lesson, why do you stop me?"

He originally wanted to go to the county to learn how to cry, but his son said that the county learned to report to the officials, and it would be better to come to Li's mansion to make trouble. Li's mansion is in-laws, so there is no reason for in-laws to report to officials and arrest people, unless the Li family doesn't want to be sympathetic .

Things happened just as Mutang expected, Li's father didn't report to the officials, but he couldn't be allowed to continue beating, they had no choice but to go to the county school to invite Mu Lan.

"Dad, have you forgotten that you have already sold me to the Li family for 50 taels of silver, and everyone in the courtroom heard it yesterday."

Mu Lan sneered, the father and son were really difficult to deal with, they dared to make trouble.

As soon as Old Mu Mu heard it, he cursed: "You bitch, I received the dowry. Your elder brother is right. You are ungrateful and punishing poor relatives when you are on a high branch. How can I support you? White-eyed wolf, you are so vicious and scheming against your parents and brothers, you will die..."

Mu Lan looked at it coldly, her heart didn't fluctuate, it was just a little sad, the original owner was also her own daughter after all, this appearance is no different from a father and daughter, no different from an enemy.

She walked over to Father Li and said, "Please ask Father-in-law to send someone to report to the officials."

"Is...isn't it right? My son-in-law, why don't you talk to your in-laws about the reasoning." Father Li hesitated. Although he felt very bad, but the police arrested his in-laws, and it really didn't sound good.

Mu Lan said slowly: "Father-in-law thinks he can listen to my reasoning? If it's not convenient, I'll go in person."

Father Li was taken aback, sighed and said: "Forget it, let the servants in the mansion go for a while."

Old man Mu was still cursing passionately, and didn't listen to what the two of them said. It wasn't until the servants of Li's mansion came with the official messenger that he felt weak in his calves, forgot to scold, and was taken away trembling. up.

When Li Jubai heard the news and rushed over, she happened to see the scene where Papa Mu was being taken away. She frowned and looked at Mu Lan: "He's just causing trouble, at most he can give you a few reprimands, and you'll get two boards. What do you think about this matter?" solve?"

"I don't have any sympathy with him. If I come to trouble in the future, I will report it to the official." Mu Lan also has a headache. If she comes here every few days, it will be really annoying.

"But you are the son, and he is the father. He will always have a reason to trouble you. If there are too many times, the government may not take care of it. If he insists that it is a family matter, he may even be exempted from the board. Then these people I don't have any scruples." Li Jubai pointed out.

As soon as Mu Lan heard it, she understood that it implied that if she got rid of this father-daughter relationship, then it would not be a family matter, and Old Mu would not dare to make trouble anymore.
