In order to rectify cruel officials and reduce unjust, false and wrong cases, the court issued an order not long ago, strictly prohibiting local governments from using heavy punishments and chasing criminals. Once discovered, severe punishment will be severely punished.

However, this is not absolute.

If the evidence is conclusive, or the result of the case is very obvious and the criminal still refuses to plead guilty, then the court's ban can be treated as appropriate.

Just now, Xu Jie was in a hurry and accidentally admitted the fact that he killed Mr. Zhao. The constables in the court and the people outside the court heard it clearly and could not deny it at all.

He knew that the matter had been exposed, and at first he was still fighting stubbornly. After two punishments, he could not bear it and took everything.

Because he coveted the property of his father-in-law's family, he had the intention of slaughtering money for a long time ago. On the full night of last month, he harmed his father-in-law Zhao Yuanwai...

Before this, he had colluded with his friend Wang Er, asking Wang Er to commit perjury in court and create absenteeism, which led to the stalemate of the case for one month...

In addition, he also confessed to the hiding place of the murder weapon. The two constables successfully found the hatchet based on the clues he confessed...

At this point, the murder of Mr. Zhao was completely revealed.

The performance of the new son-in-law of the Zhong family in the court was deeply engraved in the hearts of the county yamen runners and the onlookers.

The Zhong Mansion is next to the county government, and the servants of the Zhong family naturally learned the news as soon as possible.

The impression of the son-in-law in their hearts changed for the first time.

This is not a nerd who only knows how to study hard. He solved a case that even his master could not solve in just a few words. The son-in-law is obviously a smart person among smart people, but he just can't get up in the morning...

Tang Ning didn't know these things yet. He only knew that he was nominally the son-in-law of the Zhong family. The trouble of the Zhong family was his trouble. If something happened to his father-in-law, he would not be able to continue living a stable life.

And the most important point... He is really hungry.

He suspected that he was really hungry last time, which caused the feeling of hunger to magnify countless times on his body every time, and he no longer wanted to experience the feeling of starvation.

Zhong Mingli looked at Tang Ning, who had eaten two bowls of rice and was serving the third bowl. He coughed lightly, added a chicken leg and placed it in his bowl, and said, "Eat slowly, it's not enough. Let the kitchen make it again."

"Enough, thank you father-in-law." Tang Ning was a little flattered. Although he also felt that he should add this chicken leg, Lord Zhong, known as the "cold-faced King of Hell", personally picked up food for him. This was the first time in half a month.

Not only Tang Ning, but even Zhong Yi and the woman who were sitting on both sides looked at them.

Zhong Mingli seemed to have not seen the strangeness of the two people. She put down the bowl, looked at Tang Ning, and suddenly asked, "Is it sunny or cloudy last month?"

Tang Ning took off the chicken legs in his mouth and said, "I don't know..."

"Then why are you..."

"Nothing to say..."

Tang Ning didn’t know whether it was sunny or cloudy last month, but he felt that Xu Jie shouldn’t know either…

Not only that, Xu Jie probably hasn't seen "The Dead Grass" starring Stephen Chow...

Zhong Mingli coughed lightly, looked at him and said, "Thanks to you today."

Tang Ning said modestly: "It should."

The case of Mr. Zhao's murder was not yet closed, and Zhong Mingli left hurriedly after dinner.

After Tang Ning finished gnawing the chicken leg he deserved, he got up with him.

On the way back together, Zhong Yi wanted to speak several times, but she didn't speak until Tang Ning returned to her room.

As soon as she walked to her study, Qing'er ran over with a happy look on her face.

The expression on the little maid's face was full of excitement. She ran to her side and couldn't wait to say, "Miss, my son-in-law is so powerful. When the master was trying the case just now, I was hiding outside and listening. Even the master had no choice. The son-in-law made the bad guy confess guilt at once. Who said that the son-in-law was a nerd..."

Zhong Yi was stunned, looked at Qing'er, and said, "Speak slowly, what happened in the court today..."

...

Tang Ning came out of the alley again, but still didn't meet the little beggar.

The little beggar who appeared in his world at the most dangerous and helpless moment and gave him a handful of clear water and a bun.

Because of his life experience, Tang Ning had seen and suffered a lot of evil in his previous life, so he cherished the hard-earned goodness.

Unfortunately, the little beggar appeared in his life and pulled him out of the abyss, and never appeared again.

This alley is a gathering place for beggars nearby. He stood at the entrance of the alley and sighed leisurely.

Behind him, an old beggar leaned against the wall, and several naughty boys surrounded him.

"I tell you, on the fairy mountain five hundred miles away from Lingzhou City, there are a group of gods living in it. They can fly with swords, call the wind and rain, chase the wind and chase the wind, and do everything..."

Tang Ning didn't finish sighing in one breath, and then held it back.

What?

Flying with swords, calling the wind and rain, chasing the wind by lightning?

There is a fairy mountain five hundred miles outside Lingzhou City. I have never heard of it!

Could it be that he was not traveling through the ancient world, but the world of immortals and gods?

However, these days, he almost finished reading the books in Zhongyi's study, but he didn't see any book that said there was a fairy mountain five hundred miles away from Lingzhou City. There were a group of immortals calling the wind and rain living on the fairy mountain...

As a young man who has received higher education in the 21st century, he must always keep in mind the core socialist values. Feudal superstition cannot be ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Although the probability of this is very slim, what if?

That was his chance to go back, the only chance.

Tang Ning has been almost desperate about going back these days, but now he is like a drowning person, grabbing the last straw...

Of course, he wouldn't be so stupid that he would stop someone on the street and ask if there is a fairy mountain outside Lingzhou City. If there is really no, he would be regarded as a madman...

He could use a short story to get this kind of problem out of Qing'er's mouth.

He glanced at the old beggar and walked quickly towards the direction of Zhong's mansion.

Next to the old beggar, the children had long heard their eyes lit up and their breathing was rapid. At this moment, the old beggar's voice stopped abruptly, with a smile on his face and asked, "Do you want to know how to worship under the gods and learn immortal magic?"

"I want to!" the children spoke in unison.

"If you want to think about it, I will continue..."

...

Zhong Mansion, Tang Yaoyao looked at Zhong Yi and couldn't help asking: "You said, is it possible that he is pretending?"

He has great interest and high enthusiasm for proving that Tang Ning was not really absent from her, but took the initiative to pretend to be crazy and stupid.

"It shouldn't be." Zhong Yi shook her head. She actually had doubts about this, but through contacts these days, some strange words and strange actions he occasionally said on weekdays have long dispelled her from this idea.

Tang Yaoyao looked at her and asked, "But today, he is even better than Uncle Zhong..."

This is exactly what Zhong Yi is puzzled.

She had heard Qing'er carefully tell the story of what happened in the court today.

He first used ordinary inquiries to dispel the prisoner's vigilance, and then he was surprised to make him lose his footsteps. The final question was the finishing touch, allowing the man to fall into the trap of his words without realizing it, and indirectly admitting the murder case he committed.

This process has reached an extremely subtle level of control over the prisoner's psychology.

This is not possible even the father of the county magistrate for more than ten years, but a person suffering from aphrodisiacs...

When Tang Yaoyao saw her expression, she asked expectantly: "How is it, do you think he is pretending to be stupid..."

Qing'er, who was standing beside her, thought for a while, said, "Miss Tang, my aunt has just lost her memory, she has not become stupid. Even if she has lost her memory, she is still a smart person..."

Tang Yaoyao felt another arrow in the chest.

Tang Ning walked in from outside and saw the three people sitting in the yard. He nodded slightly to Zhong Yi, then waved to Qing'er and said, "Qing'er, come here, I have something to ask you."

Qing'er trotted over, and soon, she trotted back.

Tang Yaoyao asked hurriedly: "What did he ask you?"

Zhong Yi's eyes also looked at her.

"Son-in-law, my aunt just asked me, five hundred miles away from Lingzhou City, is there any fairy mountain, and are there any gods flying with swords on the mountain..."

"It's over, he not only has absent-mindedness, but also has absent-mindedness..."

Tang Yaoyao looked pale, covered her chest and leaned weakly on Zhong Yi's shoulder.

Lingzhou City, an alley.

Several women picked up their children, and several other men punched and kicked an old beggar leaning against the wall.
