It is impossible to punish adults

Chapter 390
The Yacha got the order, turned around and went down, and brought Lu Yingguang out of the prison in a short while.

Since Yuan Mu and Mu Liuyun arrived, Wang Xiu never tortured Lu Yingguang and Shaoyao again. Yuan Mu even asked someone to find a doctor to see their wounds and give them medicine. Although Lu Yingguang is still limping Turning, I have to be supported by Yacha to walk, but at least I can cheer up and my face has recovered a little.

When he was brought to the front of the hall, he fell on the ground in good order: "Xiaomin Lu Yingguang has met Lord Yuan, Lord Mu, and Lord Wang!"

Wang Xiu was obviously not happy that Lu Yingguang put himself at the end of the county's parent officer, but Mu Liuyun, who promoted the officer, was the person who was promoted to the criminal department, and he was half a rank higher than himself. In any respect, what Lu Yingguang said was not wrong, and he didn't dare to show it in front of Yuan Mu, so he had to sneak a glance at Lu Yingguang and remained silent.

"Lu Yingguang, I want to ask you, you and Tang Wanxin, the eldest lady of the Tang family, have made a private decision for life, is there such a thing?" Yuan Mu went straight to the point and asked in front of the two heads and wives of the Liao family and the Tang family. Lu Yingguang.

Tang Yuanwai and Madam Tang stared at Lu Yingguang, wishing they could hug his head and shake their heads for him.

However, Lu Yingguang did not let the two of them get what they wished. When asked by Yuan Mu, he nodded immediately: "My lord, there is indeed such a thing! Cousin Wanxin and I have already hit it off, but it's just that my aunt and uncle refused to make it happen. .”

"Then let me ask you, have you and Tang Wanxin ever done anything wrong?" Yuan Mu asked again.

Master Liao and Mrs. Liao, who were sitting by the side, were ashen-faced, and they gritted their teeth so that their cheeks stood up. Tang Yuanwai and Mrs. Tang were angry and somewhat embarrassed, most likely because of what kind of answer Lu Yingguang could give. I also have no idea.

After all, my daughter was able to escape from her in-laws' house by pretending to be a maid on the night of her wedding, and elope with others. Not sure.

When Lu Yingguang heard this, he quickly knelt up straight, and even though the wound where he had been beaten with a board before was still painful, he still shouted loudly: "My lord! You are wronged! You are wronged! My cousin and I are in love with each other. But there has never been any act of overstepping!
Although Xiaomin has failed many exams and has not yet achieved fame, he is still a person who has read the books of sages. I will never go to the kind of things that are spurned by others and damage the reputation of my cousin. made!

I swear to God, my cousin and I never crossed the line when we were in love with each other! "

"Not before, but it might not be the night you agreed with Tang Wanxin to run away from marriage, right?" Yuan Mu said coldly.

"It's absolutely nothing! It's absolutely nothing!" Lu Yingguang's face flushed red with anxiety, "Although I made an appointment with my cousin, but I waited for a long time and my cousin didn't come, how could I Doing such a mediocre thing! My lord, I am wronged!"

"Since you dare to make a private decision for life behind the backs of both parties, and agree to escape from marriage and elope on the day of the wedding, what else can you not do! Now you are still full of benevolence and morality, who are you planning to deceive?" Yuan Mu's tone suddenly rose, "Come on. People! Give me torture, beat me hard! If you refuse to confess honestly, you will be beaten inside Wangsi!"

Lu Yingguang's face, which was still red just now, turned pale immediately because of Yuan Mu's order. He shouted out his grievances, but was directly pushed to the ground by the yamen guards on both sides, and he was about to torture him.

"My lord! My lord! Xiaomin was wronged! Xiaomin was really wronged!" Lu Yingguang's voice changed in fright, "I swear to God, I never did anything offensive to my cousin. I haven't seen my cousin at all, so if you want to torture me, you can use it, but even if you beat me to death, I can't admit what I haven't done!"

"Don't admit to death?" Yuan Mu sneered, "Since you are so stubborn and refuse to admit your guilt, let's beat him to death!"

When they heard that they were going to be directly beaten to death, not to mention the Tang family couple who were related to Lu Yingguang, they were taken aback. Even the Liao family, who were on the side with pale faces, were a little surprised. I have never seen such a scene where people are about to be killed on the spot, and I was a little panicked all of a sudden, and I didn't know whether to dissuade or not to speak out.

Lu Yingguang was pressed to the ground, trembling all over, his face ashen ashes, but he didn't make any struggle, but after his defense was invalid, he said weakly: "Forget it... If I didn't do something, even if I was beaten to death, I would die." I can't admit it, but if your lord insists on killing me, then kill me, and if you kill me, Cousin Wanxin and I can meet again..."

Yuan Mu watched all of Lu Yingguang's reactions, and raised his hand when the two yamen guards were about to start torture, signaling them to stop for now.

"Master Wang, you have seen everything just now, what do you think of this matter?" He asked Wang Xiu.

Wang Xiu was originally sitting behind a small table beside him, looking at his nose and his heart, thinking that since Yuan Mu was in charge of this case, he naturally didn't need to think about it himself, so he was secretly fascinated just now, sitting in a well-behaved manner. It was there, but Hun'er didn't know where to go.

At this moment, his name was suddenly called, and his soul returned to his place in fright for a moment, and he couldn't find the southeast and northwest. He looked at Yuan Mu with a dazed face, hesitated for a while before he figured out what the other party was asking him, and quickly said: "Returning to my lord, I think that this Lu Yingguang abducted his new wife to escape marriage and elope with him, which shows that this person's character is very bad!
A person with bad conduct naturally doesn't care what is called etiquette, righteousness, honesty and shame. He can even make a private decision for life and run away from marriage. Is there anything else he would have any scruples about? !Such a morally corrupt person, it is not a pity to die with a stick! "

"Oh? Why does Lord Wang think he would rather be beaten to death than admit that he crossed the line with Tang Wanxin that night?" Yuan Mu didn't get an answer and gave up, but asked again and again.

"This..." Wang Xiu didn't expect Yuan Mu to ask a second time after asking the question once, and replied after digging his stomach, "My lord, I think it's probably because this guy is a liar and stubborn, and he still wants to resist even now. Keep your luck in mind!"

"My lord Wang usually relies on guesswork in some cases?" Yuan Mu turned his head and glanced at him.

When Wang Xiu heard that the words were wrong, her forehead immediately began to sweat. She didn't know what she said wrong, and she didn't dare to answer the words casually, for fear that she would say something wrong again that would make Yuan Mu unhappy. Can bite the bullet and keep silent.
