309. Chapter 309 Seeing injustice on the road 4
"Yes," Ouyang Chen responded and spread a densely written paper. "This is only the last two months. On the seventh day of the Xuanyue period, Yang Caigui transported fifteen trucks of grain to Hechuan and handed over 700 taels..."
After Ouyang Chen clearly pronounced the names of five people, the prefect was so scared that he collapsed.
Murong Xuan waved his hand and signaled Ouyang Chen to stop: "How is it, prefect? Let's tell you where we hide the silver?" The smile on his face was like the ice of thousands of years, and it was so cold that people were trembling.
The prefect began to kowtow again: "Prince, please spare me."
Ouyang Chen received Murong Xuan's eyes and knew it was his turn to play. He cleared his throat and said, "Prince, this time we forced our tolls to be paid only by the master from beginning to end. It is also the master who is rude to the future princess. It seems that Liu Yuanwai was put in a prison cell. Although the prefect is guilty, he should not die, right?"
When the prefect heard this, his eyes lit up again: "Yes, prince, I don't know most of the matters. I don't know the people and I am willing to take out all my property to confiscate it."
Murong Xuan hesitated and thought about something seriously. Ouyang Chen coughed lightly: "Prince, Yuanwai Liu..."
"I immediately sent someone to investigate why he was in jail. If it was because Mr. Liu did not pay taxes, he would be released immediately." The prefect immediately flattered and promised.
"Boss Yang is my friend. I will ask him in the future if you still have heavy taxes. If he has any accidents or troubles, no matter where he encounters it, I will be the first to find you."
"I understand, understand."
"This master," Murong Xuan thought for a while, "Go back and interrogate it carefully. Before executing it, remember to walk around the streets and let the people see it. If you die, you will be killed and storm me at the city gate for ten days. If someone randomly oppresses good women, this is the end. As for his family, Murong Xuan paused, "There is no need to be investigated."
The master dared not say a word. It was a blessing that he would offend the prince and not implicate his family. If he took the blame alone, perhaps the prefect would still think of him and take care of his family.
The prefect naturally understood what the Seventh Prince meant. The master had to die, and he also dragged himself down. It was just right that he died!
"Okay, go down. I don't want anyone to know about my coming here. Let's loosen your master." Murong Xuan said with a lazy look. He didn't want to care too much about the court. Anyway, the world will basically fall into Murong Xiang's hands in the future. He doesn't believe Murong Xiang will let these corrupt officials do whatever he wants. Since the prefect can sit steadily until now, it means that he has turned a blind eye. If he doesn't care about his people and his world, he won't worry about that.
"Yes, yes, I understand." The prefect hurriedly untied the rope for the master and left the door together.
As for what the prefect will do next, Murong Xuan didn't want to care at all. The group continued to move forward "low-key" and left only a secret guard. He Chuan went to Hechuan to report the situation in a few days.
The prefect took his master back to his territory, found a quiet place, and gritted his teeth and asked, "Look at the good things you did, I almost killed the prefect!"
The master knelt down with a "thump": "The villain is sorry for the trust and cultivation of the adults. He is willing to bear all the crimes and responsibilities alone, and only asks the adults to take good care of the villain's family in the future."
The prefect's face then calmed down: "Don't worry, I will take care of them. Does the person named Liu know about that letter?"
"The man under his command said that his son shot a pigeon when he was hunting, but he never found the letter."
The prefect narrowed his eyes and shining with a shrewd gaze. He said, "Even if he got the letter, I believe he dare not make it public. It's just protecting himself." The prefect paused and looked at him, "You fell in love with his daughter at that time, so you found an excuse to use my order to slaughter them into the cell. How about that?"
