Chapter 932 Shen Jiang

Mrs. Zhang was also red-eyed, good and evil have long since disappeared in her heart, as long as she can get money to enjoy, she immediately agreed after hearing this: "Success, just listen to my son."

In the middle of the night, after everyone had gone to sleep, they sneaked into the house to grab things.

That's right, they stopped stealing and planned to rob.It's just a few women and children. They have knives in their hands, so how can you be afraid of them?

But they miscalculated this time. Not long after sneaking into the house, they bumped into a man head-on.

The man was taken aback for a moment, but when he saw the knife in Gu Chengli's hand, he immediately reacted, grabbed the knife from Gu Chengli's hand in two moves, and then kicked him on the knee.

With a bang, Gu Chengli was kicked directly to his knees on the ground, and with a click, his kneecap was shattered.

"Second brother, get up, there's a thief in the house!" The man shouted towards the outside of the house, his hands kept moving, he twisted Gu Chengli's hand, pulled it hard, and with a click, he directly gave Gu Chengli's hand Dislocated.

"Ah!" Gu Chengli screamed, almost fainted from the pain, and hurriedly called to Mrs. Zhang: "Mother, help me beat him to death!"

Mrs. Zhang was startled for a long time, and when she heard Gu Chengli's words, she came back to her senses and ran away.

Gu Chengli's eyes showed a cold look, damn Zhang, he is her own son, and when disaster came, she would abandon him and run away by herself.

But Mrs. Zhang couldn't run away, but collided with another man who rushed into the house.

With a bang, he was knocked to the ground by a man as strong as a mountain.

The man knew martial arts and reacted quickly. He immediately pinned Zhang Shi down, made two clicks, and first took off her two arms so that she could no longer move.

Mrs. Zhang was so painful that she almost passed out, but hurriedly begged for mercy: "Hero, please forgive me, please forgive me, we just passed by and wanted to enter the house for a night, not to steal anything."

"Bah, do you think our old Liang family is a fool? Will you believe your nonsense." Liang's second child didn't talk to her, took the rope from the house and tied Zhang up.

Mrs. Zhang cried, and kept saying: "The hero misunderstood, our mother and son really came here to spend the night, you arrested the wrong person."

Boss Liang heard this and said: "Stop talking nonsense, our brother is a dart walker, we have seen all kinds of people, you still want to lie to us with your trick, please save it."

After the boss Liang tied up Gu Chengli, he said to the second brother Liang: "The second brother went to the yamen to call someone, saying that we caught two thieves, and I guess they are the male and female double thieves that have been rumored very fiercely these days."

Hey, look, Mrs. Zhang is stealing things from Gu Chengli and even stealing their names.

Recently, in several towns along the official road, people's homes have been stolen. Some people have seen the two people, saying that they are a man and a woman, but the woman is a bit older and does not look like a husband and wife.

But it doesn't matter, as long as men and women commit crimes together, everyone will call them male and female.

"Hey, I'll go right away." Liang Er Er turned around and left the house.

Boss Liang looked at Zhang's mother and son, and shouted out of the house: "Mother, daughter-in-law, second sibling, don't panic, the thief has been caught, the second child has gone to report to the police, and the yamen servant will come in a while, you stay in the house." Just fine."

Mrs. Liang and the others had long heard the sound of fighting outside, and they were quite frightened. Hearing this, they were finally relieved, and shouted: "Hey, we know, you should be careful. I heard that the male and female thieves are very powerful. Very, never empty.”

The reputation of the male and female thieves is quite loud in the nearby towns, and everyone is terrified. Her family has a lot of women and children, and Mrs. Liang has always been afraid of accidents at home. She never thought that these two thieves really coming.

Fortunately, the eldest brother and the second child heard about the male and female thieves and came back early, otherwise their family would be ruined.

After half an hour, Liang's second son finally brought the people from the county government.

The yamen servants immediately took Zhang's mother and son away, and tortured them for half a night. At dawn, Gu Chengli finally couldn't bear the torture and confessed, admitting that their mother and son stole more than a dozen families in several towns along the way. of silver.

But after Gu Chengli recruited, he pushed all the faults on Mrs. Zhang, crying and said: "My mother forced me to do it. If I don't steal it, she will die for me. I am a son, so I can't do it." Seeing my own mother die, I can only promise her and steal things with her... Master, I am innocent, it is all my mother's fault."

When Gu Chengli was in the Li family, he had read some books with the Mr. Li's family. The Mr. Li's family had told them about the criminal laws of the Great Chu, and there was a rule that both those who confessed their crimes and those who were instigated to commit crimes could have their sentences reduced.

What he committed was only theft. Although he had hurt others, he did not kill anyone. Since he was young, the imperial court needed manpower in the mines, so he would not be sentenced to death, but to work in the mines.

As long as he can go to the mine, he will have a chance to escape and seek refuge with Sister Rong.

Mrs. Zhang trembled when she heard this, stared at Gu Chengli, gritted her teeth and said: "You bastard who has lost his conscience, he has the same virtue as your father and your father. Blame the fault on others. Gu Chengli, don't worry, you won't be able to escape this time, even if I die, I will die with you!"

Mrs. Zhang is a ruthless person, and she also blamed Gu Chengli for all the faults, and even said that Gu Chengli bought a knife with the intention of murdering and robbing.

Gu Chengli's knife was bought in the county town, and the government officials went to check it, and they really found it.

Gu Chengli cried: "My mother asked me to buy the knife, and she forced me to steal it. I am an accessory, and she is the real villain!"

Mrs. Zhang laughed when she heard this: "My son, you will pay for your life if you do evil things. You can't push your mother to death just to save your own life."

After putting all the blame on Gu Chengli, Mrs. Zhang said to the yamen servant: "Master, I didn't hurt anyone's life, so I can't be sentenced to death. In our Dachu, anyone who didn't commit a murder can be punished with money."

He also said: "My daughter Gu Rong is the concubine of the third young master of the Zhan family in Jinning Mansion. The Zhan family is a family that has been passed down for hundreds of years. Everyone in Jiangnan, Jianghuai and Huaihe Rivers knows it well. Please ask me to send a letter to the Zhan family in Jinning. When the Zhan family receives the letter, they will definitely send someone to bring me some money to expiate my guilt."

Like Gu Rong, Mrs. Zhang is a quick-witted person in times of crisis, and Gu Rong told her a lot about the Zhan family, and she frightened the yamen servants by telling these things.

The yamen servant hurried to report to the county magistrate.

The county magistrate was also bluffed, and remembered the rumors in He'an Mansion that Master Zhan and Young Master Zhan slept with two girls surnamed Gu in He'an Mansion, and brought them back to Jinning Mansion.

Guess the rumors are true.

He was afraid that the Zhang family's mother and son would be retaliated by the Zhan family. After all, the big family valued face the most. Even a concubine's family members could not be convicted, so he finally agreed to Zhang's letter to be sent to the Zhan family.As long as Zhan's family brings money to atone for Zhang and Gu Chengli's crimes, they can be released.

Seeing that the county magistrate agreed, Mrs. Zhang was very proud, and dictated to the clerk to write a letter and send it to Jinning Mansion.

Mrs. Zhang is dreaming of someone from Zhan's family to rescue her, but she doesn't know that Gu Rong, Gu Ya, and Gu Xiaomei are about to be drowned by Zhan's uncle and nephew.
