Shen Song ran away and his people could not be found, so the shrouds of Mrs. Shen and Shen Yukang were put on by Shen Mu and his son.

Shen Mu thought that they could be regarded as his adoptive parents, so he ordered a good coffin for the two of them.

Until Mrs. Shen and Shen Yukang were buried, Shen Song never appeared again.

After the burial of the two of them was over, Shen Jintang had time to deal with the collusion between the Wei family and the Wu family to burn the warehouse in Zhuangzi.

She looked for a few tenants in the village who had seen the interactions between the Wei family and people from the Wu family, and found evidence that Wei's brother owed money to the casino but was repaid, and then went to the Yamen to beat the drum and file a complaint.

"Who is in the hall? Why are you beating the drum?" Nie Yucheng, the county magistrate, slapped the wooden door and looked at Shen Jintang who was standing in the hall.

"Sir, the little girl named Shen is suing the Wei family, a tenant in my village, for colluding with people from the Wu family to burn down the warehouse in my village."

As Shen Jintang spoke, she handed the petition she had written to the government servant on the side.

The yamen servant took it and handed it to Nie Yucheng respectfully with both hands.

Nie Yucheng is a man in his forties, with a pair of shrewd eyes, and his facial features are not handsome, but they can be considered good-looking.

He looked at the handwriting on this piece of paper, with a trace of wonder in his eyes.

Glancing at Shen Jintang who was standing in the hall, I couldn't believe that this beautiful hand of regular calligraphy was actually made by the beautiful and refined girl in front of me.

The small regular script on the paper is elegant and graceful, and there is a sense of freedom and freedom that is not bound by the world.

The writing is vigorous and powerful, and the words flow smoothly.

In all his years of living, this is the first time he has seen someone write in small regular letters with such a feeling.

The crimes of the Wei family and the Wu family were clearly stated word for word in the pleading.

Nie Yucheng summoned a few government servants and said to them: "Go and bring the Wei family, the tenant of this girl's village, and the people from the Wu family who are in contact with the Wei family."

The government officials surrendered and accepted the order.

Nie Yucheng looked at Shen Jintang with interest and said, "Miss Shen, right? Please sit down."

As soon as he finished speaking, a yamen servant brought a stool and placed it next to Shen Jintang.

"Thank you, sir." Shen Jintang sat down gracefully without being polite or formal.

Nie Yucheng saw that she was neither humble nor arrogant at such a young age, just like the regular script on the petition, clean, elegant, free and natural, a glimmer of appreciation flashed in his eyes.

"You are suing the Wei family and the Wu family for colluding to burn down your warehouse in Zhuangzi. Apart from this pleading, are there any other evidence or witnesses?" Nie Yucheng asked.

"Sir, I have other tenants in Zhuangzi to testify that they have seen people from the Wei family and the Wu family coming and going." Shen Jintang said.

After a pause, she continued: "The Wei family's younger brother likes to gamble, and he owes money to the gambling house. I found out that it is fifty taels of silver. With the conditions of their family and the conditions of the Wei family, there is no way he can get it. That’s a lot of money.”

So there is only one possibility, that is, someone from the Wu family helped Wei's brother repay the money.

In exchange, Wei burned down Shen Jintang's warehouse.

Nie Yucheng nodded after hearing this, and then asked: "Why did the Wu family collude with the Wei family to burn down the warehouse in your village? Your paper says that the Wu family is still your grandfather's family?"

Shen Jintang nodded and told him clearly every word about the old lady of the Wu family and her eldest daughter-in-law Zhang who wanted to cooperate with her family and were kicked out.

Nie Yucheng nodded after hearing this. According to this, it is possible that Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Zhang failed to cooperate with each other and were kicked out, losing face and holding a grudge.

Wei was quickly brought there.

She was already feeling guilty because she had done bad things, and she was even more frightened when she was pushed and pushed by the government servants along the way.

Now when I arrived at the court, I saw Shen Jintang sitting aside leisurely.

Then I saw the majestic government officials standing on both sides, holding red and blue water and fire sticks in their hands, and I was even more frightened.

Nie Yucheng frowned as he looked at Ms. Wei, whose legs were paralyzed on the ground unable to get up from fear, and slapped the gavel in her hand: "Ms. Wei, someone is accusing you of maliciously setting fire to her warehouse in the village. Please plead guilty. ?"

Mrs. Wei turned pale with fright. When she heard the sound of the gavel hitting the table, she couldn't help but tremble.

"My lord, my lord is not me, I don't have one." Wei shook his head in panic, and the guilty look on his expression was already clear to Nie Yucheng in his eyes.

"Wei, if you take the initiative to confess, I will give you a lighter punishment at my discretion. If you refuse to admit it, you will suffer a lot." Nie Yucheng said warningly.

When Mrs. Wei heard this, she couldn't help but rolled her eyes and fainted.

When Nie Yucheng saw this, he was speechless.

He has interrogated so many prisoners, some of whom still have conscience, some of whom are extremely vicious. Some of whom have decisively confessed, and some of whom would rather die than admit.

The only one who didn't get scared was Wei, who just said a few words.

He waved his hand to the yamen servant and ordered: "Take her down first, wake her up and then interrogate her."

Not long after the Wei family was taken down, the maid from the Wu family who had contact with the Wei family was brought up.

It's just that she is a maid from a wealthy family, and her knowledge and courage are much higher than those of the Wei family.

When they saw Shen Jintang sitting on the side, and Nie Yucheng sitting in the courtroom, they also bowed: "I have met you, sir. I wonder why you ordered me to bring the little girl here?"

Nie Yucheng did not answer her words, but pointed at Shen Jintang and asked her, "Do you know this girl sitting in the hall?"

When the maid heard this, she glanced at Shen Jintang, nodded slightly and said, "I know her. She is my eldest aunt's daughter."

Nie Yucheng nodded and said: "This Miss Shen is suing you for following your master's instructions and colluding with the Wei family to set fire to her warehouse. Can you admit this?"

When the maid heard this, she glanced at Shen Jintang in surprise, then looked at Nie Yucheng, and said, "Little girl, I don't know why Miss Shen said this. I really don't know about it."

She couldn't control her voice from trembling when she said this.

There was a faint mocking smile on Shen Jintang's lips.

The boss Nie Yucheng's face also turned cold. He slapped the gavel on the table and said coldly: "The Wei family has admitted that you were instructed by your master to find her and let her set fire to this Shen." The girl's warehouse. In exchange, your master paid off the money owed to the gambling house for her brother."

When the maid heard this, she couldn't help but feel weak in her legs, but she still managed to keep her composure and said: "What kind of Wei family are you talking about? This little girl doesn't know her."

Nie Yucheng smiled coldly and ordered the Yamen servant: "Bring Mrs. Wei up and confront her."
