I go to the ancient imperial examinations

Chapter 497 Shocked
Zhan Feiyu's words about patting Huazi and the abducted child were calm and breezy, but Tu Daniu's dark face changed drastically, and he no longer had the honesty of a farmer before.
Looking at Tu Daniu stunned, Zhan Feiyu took another dose of ruthless medicine, "I heard that in order to eradicate the roots and prevent future troubles, the parents and family members of those children will be killed."

Dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, no matter whose family the child looks like his parents, brothers and sisters must be somewhat similar in facial features. If the abducted child is just sold for a good price, it doesn’t matter if he is recognized by his family in the future .

But if the abducted child is secretly trained and can be used as a "right hand man" in the future, once the family recognizes it, there will be endless troubles.

As if thinking of something, Tu Daniu's burly and muscular body couldn't bear it and took several steps back, and hit the tree trunk behind him with a bang, and he was stunned as if his soul had been taken away.

Tu Daniu himself did this kind of thing. Last summer, those three houses were burned down, and all twelve members of his family died in the fire.

The villagers came to put out the fire with wooden tubs and barrels, but unfortunately the fire was too intense. After the fire that burned all night was extinguished the next day, only twelve charred corpses were burned in the ruins.

The yamen also came over, but after checking, they found that the place where the fire started was the stove. It is estimated that the fire in the stove was not extinguished, and the sparks burst out and landed on the hay pile, which finally caused a big fire.

As for why the big family didn't escape, the yamen couldn't find out. After all, the peasants didn't have any feud with anyone. The folks in the village would have quarreled a few times, but it is absolutely impossible to set fire to the big family. In the end, this matter will be over. Of.

Tu Daniu's face was pale, he raised his head suddenly, staring at Zhan Feiyu with sharp and fierce eyes, "Who the hell are you?"

Even the heir carefully cultivated by the aristocratic family, it is impossible for her to have such composure at her age. This little girl is definitely not an ordinary person.

Zhan Feiyu glanced at the two catchers standing not far away, "It doesn't matter who I am, whether you use Zhao's pastry shop to lay out or have other conspiracy, it's just the soldiers who came to cover up the water and the earth. .”

Without getting the answer he wanted, Tu Daniu stared at Zhan Feiyu who turned and left, and couldn't help but say, "You have abolished several of us, do you think you can escape unscathed?"

It's a pity that Zhan Feiyu continued to walk forward without stopping.

……

One hour was enough for Miao Kuai and others to find twenty families in Liu County. The side room behind the court was full of people, and it was so dark that those who didn't know it thought that some serious crime had happened. .

The dozens of people who were brought by the arrester were even more tense and anxious. Even though the arrester repeatedly said that it was just a routine questioning, it still made people panic.

"You wait here for the time being. If the adults summon you, someone will take you to the court." Detective Miao said quickly, and then gave a few words to the yamen servants, and then strode towards the back yamen.

Above the courtroom, County Magistrate Zhu's face was majestic, and his expression changed slightly when he heard what Miao Kuai said, "Bring Wang Dongming's family here."

The Wang family consisted of six members. After being led up by the yamen servants, they knelt down on the ground with a plop, their voices trembling, "Caomin Wang Dongming pays homage to your lord."

"Wang Dongming, raise your heads!" County Magistrate Zhu said in a deep voice.

After all the young and old in the Wang family raised their heads, the heavy responsibility above the court swiped their gazes, and to be precise, they fell on their earlobes.

Really?Still kneeling in front of Granny Tu's body, Tu Daniu's hands hanging by his sides were clenched into fists. Wang Dongming and his wife had no earlobes, so his three sons and one daughter also had no earlobes.

Except Miao Bukuai and others, the others thought that Zhan Feiyu was talking nonsense, but who would have thought that it was true.

After Wang Daming's family left, the second household, Maowang's family, was also taken to court. The Mao family had a prosperous population, and both Mao Laotou and Mao Laoniang were still alive and there was no separation, so the two sons, including their daughter-in-law and children, were also brought to court. coming.

County magistrate Zhu took a closer look and found that old man Mao and old lady Mao had no earlobes, so the two sons kneeling below had no earlobes either, but the eldest daughter-in-law of the Mao family had earlobes, and two of the four children in the eldest house had earlobes. , there are two no.

But coincidentally, the second daughter-in-law of the Mao family also has no earlobes. Everyone saw that the second wife and three children of the Mao family had no earlobes.

As for the little daughter in the arms of the daughter-in-law, because she is less than three months old, she will be wrapped in swaddling clothes, but her ears cannot be seen.

"Catcher Miao, go and have a look." County magistrate Zhu ordered, and glanced at Zhan Feiyu standing below with complicated eyes. What is the origin of this little girl.

"Master, Four Treasures..." The little woman trembled when she heard these words, and subconsciously hugged her little daughter tightly in her arms.

Detective Miao walked over quickly, "Don't panic, just take a look."

At the same time as the voice fell, Detective Miao quickly lifted off the swaddle. The sleeping baby did not wake up, but he could clearly see that she had no earlobes.

Two quarters of an hour later, the group of people who were brought back to the county government left in a cloud of confusion. Fortunately, the people surrounding the court talked about the reason, and the group of people were relieved.

At this moment, there was an eerie silence in the courtroom. If what Zhan Feiyu said was true, that Tu Daniu was the child brought back by Father Tu.

With a bang, the gavel was slapped heavily on the public case, and County Magistrate Zhu said sharply, "Tu Qishu, you haven't really brought it!"

Papa Tu was still kneeling on the ground, with his head down, making it difficult to see the expression on his face.

Zhan Feiyu raised the corners of her mouth and laughed, even though she didn't speak, anyone could see the mocking smile on her Baozi's face.

"Stubbornness! Come on, if you drag the stick down, you will get [-] sticks!" County magistrate Zhu threw down the order with a dark face. Even a middle-aged man might not be able to bear the [-] sticks, let alone Tu Daddy. At an advanced age, it is estimated that one's life will be gone after this meal.

Tu Daniu knelt on the ground indifferently, as if still dazed by the fact that he was not his own child.

The old man Tu was dragged down by the yamen servants, until the muffled sound of the court stick hitting his body, the old man Tu still didn't speak.

One board after another, it is estimated that the arrests of the county government know that the county magistrate Zhu is strict in enforcing the law, so no one dares to release the old man Tu because he is old.

"Miss?" He Nuan withdrew his gaze and said to Zhan Feiyu in a low voice, "If you continue to fight, you will probably die."

The old man Tu clenched his teeth and did not beg for mercy, but at this moment his hips and back were covered with blood, coupled with his heavy breathing, He Nuan knew that the old man could not bear it without taking a pulse.

Master Zhao and Zhao Ling frowned, subconsciously suspecting that the executioners were taking the opportunity to kill people, but County Magistrate Zhu didn't speak, and their uncles and nephews didn't dare to open their mouths no matter how suspicious they were.

Young Master Jiao was still sitting on the chair, with a cold and arrogant but ruthless expression. As for Old Man Tu who was about to be beaten to death, Young Master Jiao didn't pay attention at all.

No one spoke, the [-] boards were knocked down, the old man Tu had already breathed in less air and breathed out more, now he was arrested and dragged to the middle of the court, the whole person really lay on the ground.

"Tu Qishu, you haven't really brought it here! Whose family is Tu Daniu's child, and how did your husband and wife bring him back to Tu's house?"

Old Man Tu had a severe headache, and he seemed to understand the magistrate Zhu's question after a long while, and raised his head with difficulty, "Caomin don't... don't know..."

After the words fell, there was only a bang, and the old man Tu who was struggling to get up unexpectedly slammed his head on the ground, and blood spattered instantly.

Detective Miao quickly changed his expression, and quickly stepped forward to check, "Return to your lord, he is not dead."

It's just that although he didn't lose his breath, old man Tu knocked himself out, and in addition, he was hit by a cane for [-] boards just now, so he doesn't know if he can wake up.

Zhu County Magistrate's face was dark, "Take him to the prison and let the doctor pass."

Originally it was just a case of Zhao's pastry shop, but Tu Daniu's life experience was involved here. If it was really an adopted child, old man Tu didn't have to hide it at all, but he gritted his teeth and would rather be beaten halfway Tiao Ming does not confess, which makes people wonder whether there is any shocking secret in it.

After retiring from the hall, Miao Detective waited quickly and sent Granny Tu's body to Yizhuang. No matter what case it was, Tu Daniu was regarded as the victim, so he was not sent to prison, but was taken away by the arrester. The inn stayed.
