Pale and weak words come from Mao Da’s mouth. This article comes from
This sound caused the surrounding people to be silent for an instant. Even Magistrate Xu was in a daze for a moment. It was not until the master at the side pulled his sleeve that he came back to his senses.
He breathed out slightly: "Mao Da, was it you who killed a member of the Bian family?"
At this moment, there was no room for denial, so Mao Da picked up the embroidered shoes on 1510, then pretended to be Xiao Hanfeng and sneaked into the Bian family at night in an attempt to have sex. Unexpectedly, the Bian family members were alarmed, and the two sides had a dispute.
Yu told the whole process of how Bian was killed by mistake.
Everything is right and there is no doubt at all.
He was also very bold. After getting the embroidered shoes, he thought that as long as he deceived Rouge into opening the window, he could break in and knock down the beauty to do the good deed.
Mao Da even imagined that as long as the Overlord took advantage of Yanzhi's innocence, he might have the opportunity to become the Bian family's son-in-law.
This is not fantastic.
The Bian family only has one daughter, and his daughter has been molested by him again. Maybe she will get it right in one step, and she will have a dark knot or something. At that time, the family scandal cannot be made public, and Bian will not have too many choices.
It's a pity that everything has come to nothing now.
Soon, the master wrote the confession, gave it to Mao Da, stamped it, and pressed his fingerprints. Immediately, a Yamen servant came forward, put shackles and iron chains on Mao Da, and prepared to escort him back to the Yamen——
"Xu Qingtian! Xu Qingtian!"
The people cheered thunderously and enthusiastically. At this time, they were thinking: Xiao Hanfeng is a student of Minghua Academy. He is a scholar and has no power to tie a chicken. How could he be the murderer? Sure enough, there is a different story to the case, and the real murderer is
Someone else...
Once the idea of "hindsight" arises, it will no longer be suppressed, and finally they come together to praise Magistrate Xu from the bottom of their hearts.
——There are tens of millions of people, but all they want is to live and work in peace and contentment, and all they hope for is a blue sky above their heads.
that is it.
Xu Mengze has been the magistrate of Jiangzhou for many years. Although he is arbitrary and somewhat headstrong in judging cases, he is still relatively fair and has a certain reputation among the people.
Now, this reputation has reached its peak in an instant.
Xu Mengze was not mentally prepared for the huge reputation, so he looked a little stiff in the face of the flood of praise.
The people cheered, but they still had questions in their hearts: What happened to the words written on Mao Da's back? Could it be that the prefect deliberately set up a trap, and Mao Da had a guilty conscience, so he didn't bring it upon himself? As the old saying goes.
: Attacking the heart comes first!
However, Prefect Xu, Gu Xuezheng and others were full of suspicions, but when they were looking for Chen Jianchen, the only person who might know the truth, they found that Chen Jianchen had left at some point.
Is this a big deal? Just brush off your clothes and go away?
Or maybe it doesn't count. However, he really doesn't need to do anything about the following things.
Mao Dazheng was imprisoned and sent to the death row; while Xiao Hanfeng was naturally acquitted in court. In the verdict, Magistrate Xu said, "Butterflies crossing the wall have ears through the window; a lie within a lie can make a living. Unjust injustice.
I am quite touched by the words "Whoever believes in injustice". As for the relationship between Rouge and Xiao Hanfeng, whether it can develop or not depends on their fate.
The verdict is over. Withdraw from the hall and the crowd disperses.
In the backyard, Xu Mengze and Gu Xichao looked at each other and were speechless for a long time. In the process of this matter, they more or less allowed Chen Jianchen to do things easily, and they could not help but have selfish motives in it. It would not be an exaggeration to say "bad intentions".
But the final result surprised both of them. Looking back, Chen Jianchen's confidence, composure, and responsibility throughout the entire process were all impressive.
This boy is really just like what Mr. Hengqu said, he is not a thing in the pond...
Thinking of the two mysterious and difficult-to-explain words written on Mao Da's back, Chen Jianchen became even more mysterious.
This sense of mystery made both Gu Xuezheng and Xu Zhifu feel uncomfortable. They were unwilling to accept the outcome of such a mysterious and mysterious matter, but they couldn't bear to ask. Moreover, even if they asked, the answer might not be satisfactory.
Perhaps, maintaining the status quo is a good choice.
Xu Qingtian, the magistrate of the Chenghuang Temple, judged the case, which had a great influence. It spread quickly throughout the city. The center of the heated discussion was Xu Qingtian. He had little to do with Chen Jianchen. In fact, many people did not even know that he existed.
During the banquet to wash away Xiao Hanfeng's bad luck, Wang Fu and the other three people all looked at Chen Jianchen eagerly, hoping to get an answer from his mouth.
Chen Jianchen smiled and said, "You should ask the prefect."
Of course, given their status, they would not dare to ask Xu Mengze.
So, the whole thing has no answer.
The divine color shrouded in the event itself made people talk about it even more and lasted for a long time. At the same time, it also made the city god's temple more popular.
…
Also without an answer was the newly appointed Song Chong. He found time to send Shi Da Chong to Chongyang Temple, and after a lot of trouble, he invited the presiding master Yuan Bao to come out to see him.
The master only glanced at the stupid Shi Da Chong and said: "This donor has lost his soul."
"Is there still hope?"
He did not tell the truth to Master Yuanbao. He only said that Shi Da Chong became like this after being caught in the rain at night.
Master Yuanbao shook his head and indicated that there was nothing he could do. However, he asked Song Chong to keep Shi Da Chong and accept him as a novice. Song Chong agreed simply. Shi Da Chong was already useless, so what's the use of keeping him around? Why not?
Just be a favor and leave it behind.
The stone insect was thrown to others, but the hatred in Song Chong's heart was never left behind.
Chen Jianchen must be killed!
This is his hatred.
The impact of the recent Jianjiang embankment burst has been growing day by day, and many victims have flocked to Jiangzhou City. They have nothing, they have their children, and they just want a place to live and a mouthful of food to eat. And if it is the simplest
If their wishes cannot be fulfilled, they will become a mob overnight.
This has been a headache for the imperial court since ancient times.
Disasters are often the cause of people's rebellion, and they are the fuse. Once ignited, they will soon be responded to by hundreds of people, and the situation will turn into a prairie fire. And if there are rioters in the local area, it means that the local officials will be unlucky. It is a trivial matter not to be able to protect the people.
Security is a big deal.
Therefore, in order to prevent the situation from getting out of control, Jiangzhou Zhang Zhizhou had already thought of countermeasures - closing the city and closing households was a certainty. If a large number of disaster victims were allowed to flood into the city, the consequences would be unmanageable; the victims could not enter the city, and there were no other options.
The only way to go is to settle down outside the city and wait for charity from the government.
Then he cooperated with the Tiger and Leopard Alliance, a Jianghu gang, and asked Song Chonglai to be the co-manager and lead a group of subordinates responsible for maintaining order among the victims.
Song Chong and the others were much more powerful than the government, more ruthless, more decisive, more violent, and more intimidating.
At the same time, if possible, they will also be the perfect candidates for scapegoats.
The reckless Song Chong did not think too much about certain doorways. He only knew that he had changed from a thief to an official. Now that he is an official, he has power in his hands; now that he has power, he should make good use of it.
In this way, you can get the maximum benefit and not let yourself live a miserable life.
The problem is that ever since he met Chen Jianchen, he has felt aggrieved. He didn't get the beauty he wanted to steal, and he didn't succeed in killing someone. He, Song Chong, has been in the world for many years. When has he ever felt so unhappy?
Damn it!
…
The days are like water, gradually returning to calm, so calm that there is no movement at all. It just floats past everyone's fingertips unknowingly, leaving no trace.
Reading, writing, attending classes, exercising every day, and occasionally going out for a drink are almost all of Chen Jianchen's life.
Many times in life, peace is happiness. But peace does not mean dullness. Anyway, for Chen Jianchen, it is impossible for him to live a dull life.
No, there are only a few days left before the wedding day to Lu Xiyue.
Perhaps in the Tiantong Dynasty, marriage was nothing for a man. After all, he could have three wives, four concubines, or even dozens of concubines. In other words, a man, especially a rich and powerful man, would probably marry many times in his life.
Marriage, entering the bridal chamber many times...
However, Chen Jianchen is an outsider and cannot yet achieve the carefree state of "just a little bee picking flowers everywhere". Therefore, for him, marrying Lu Xiyue is a big deal.
In fact, regarding etiquette preparations, Mo Sanniang and A Bao had already made extensive preparations. Lu Xiyue was single again without her parents, which eliminated many steps. When the day came, invite a team
As a guard of honor, just carry the sedan to the Golden Needle House opposite and pick up the newlyweds.
After getting married, Lu Xiyue will close the Golden Needle House and devote herself wholeheartedly to being Chen Jianchen's wife - this is something that has been discussed and decided on a long time ago.
Speaking of which, Chen Jianchen is quite looking forward to that day. The wedding night is a great joy in life.
During this waiting period, Xiaoyi was replaced by Xiaoyi to protect Lu Xiyue, and Yingning returned to Chen Jianchen, working full-time as a companion to the little book boy.
I am in the college, but Chen Jianchen's news is not blocked. In recent days, I have heard a lot about the situation of victims gathered outside the city, saying that there are some signs of riots. Then Song Chong assumes the role of co-manager, and violent law enforcement is commonplace.
For the disaster victims who couldn't bear to see it, they often insulted and scolded them; but the food and drinks given out by the government office, the porridge and water were light, which reflected the appearance of the people. In a big bowl, you couldn't get a few grains of rice.
There is a granary in the city, but the amount of food allocated is really pitiful. As for the materials donated by people from all walks of life in the city, I don’t know how many of them were embezzled by the officials who handled them. Only one or two of them ended up in the hands of the victims. In the end.
As a result, the lives of thousands of disaster victims were unsustainable and the living conditions were extremely harsh. Every night, cries filled the fields and soared to the sky, making the residents in the city feel sad and sad.
"Sir, how about I go to the government's treasury and borrow some money to spread the wealth."
The kind-hearted Yingning couldn't hear those sad and plaintive cries, and couldn't help but think of borrowing official positions to spread wealth.
