From Kowloon's Inheritance

Chapter 15 A stick of incense
"Not me, not me!"

Qian Xiucai panicked.

"It's not you, who is it?" Li Mu shouted: "It's not you, who would kill someone to silence you! Give me evidence of your absence, give me a reason why you were wronged?"

Immediately, Qian Xiucai was speechless.

In this era, a case can be judged as long as it is reasonable, and there is no need for strong evidence.If evidence is needed to decide all cases, most cases cannot be judged, and the county magistrate will not have to do anything all day long.

Sentencing for evidence is also reasonable and legal.

"Come on, tie him up and take him to the county government!" Li Mu shouted.

Immediately, Qian Xiucai was tied up and left Qian's house directly.On the eve of leaving, Li Mu seemed to have thought of something, stepped forward to pick up the bowl, and took it away as evidence.

After returning to the county government, an order was issued, so Sun Jiachen was released without charge, and Qian Xiucai went to prison.

When we arrived at the county government office, looking at the bowl, Li Mu fell into deep thought, "There is still not enough evidence. Even though there is not enough evidence, we can be convicted, but there is still something wrong. There are fingerprints at night, the fingerprints of the servant girl Xiaocui, and the fingerprints of the murderer." , if the fingerprint can be printed directly, it will be more perfect!"

"Without modern equipment, how to print fingerprints!"

Li Mu was thinking.

On Blue Star, you need a fingerprint mold to print your fingerprints, and even the simplest ones need tape to print your fingerprints. But now that you don’t have all the props, it’s very difficult to print your fingerprints... It can even be said that it’s almost impossible. Task.

"How to!"

Li Mu thought for a long time, but he still couldn't figure it out.

Suddenly, the footsteps of the yamen servant came.

Li Mu looked up, only to see Sun Jiachen appeared, and his daughter Sun Mengxi.Although their spirits were a little sluggish, they were in a good state at the moment because they were acquitted.

"See you sir!"

Sun Jiachen knelt down on the ground, and Sun Mengxi knelt down on the ground too.

"Get up, you are wronged!" Li Mu said, "I have said that, I will not wrong any good person, nor will I let any bad person go!"

"My lords, clean up the grievances of the little people, how can the little people play around!" Sun Jiachen said: "This is 3 taels of silver, please accept it!"

As he spoke, he took out 3 taels of silver bills and delivered them directly.

puff!

Li Mu was also speechless.

What a wonderful time.

On Blue Star, if the court made a wrong decision, it is not possible to pay compensation; and if the yamen wronged someone, they would beat him up regardless of the situation, but there was no compensation, and Sun Jiachen gave him 72 taels of silver instead.

"This, my officer, I'm sorry to accept it!" Li Mu said, he was very thick-skinned, but at the moment he was also red and flustered.

Sun Jiachen said: "My lord, this is not for you, but the roads in the county town haven't been repaired for a long time. It's time to build the roads. This is money for road repairs for the common people, not for the lord!"

It sounded good, but it fell into Li Mu's wallet, and he still didn't let him say it.

"Forget it!" Li Mu nodded and accepted the 3 taels of silver.

After all, he underestimated the power of the county magistrate.

In the eyes of later generations, the county magistrate is just a small official of the seventh rank, which seems to be very worthless.

But in this era, the county magistrate is very powerful, as the so-called county magistrate who ransacked the house, and the governor who killed the family.

It is common for county magistrates to ransack their homes and destroy their families.
When a county magistrate takes office in a certain place, if he doesn't do the job of ransacking his family and destroying his family, how can he deter local snakes, how can he collect taxes, and how can he be worthy of his reputation as a parent official.

If he didn't accept it, Sun Jiachen would be restless instead.

Watching Li Mu accept the banknotes, Sun Jiachen heaved a sigh of relief. How much money he earns is not important, the important thing is to enjoy the money.

No matter how much money you have, you are still a bastard. If you lose your life, everything will be in vain.The old man accepted his money, at least it proved that the old man didn't want to kill pigs, but just wanted to shear sheep.

Right now, he's safe.

"My lord, Xiaomin will leave!" Sun Jiachen said goodbye and left.

Li Mu just nodded, ignored it, and continued to think about how to print fingerprints while walking.

Suddenly, he saw that Sun Mengxi was still here.

"Miss Sun, why are you staying here?" Li Mu asked.

"My lord, the father who saved the little girl, the little girl has nothing in return, and is willing to commit himself to being a slave and a maidservant, making mattresses and quilts, and taking care of the adults' daily life!" Sun Mengxi said.

"Girl, let's go!" Li Mu said lightly, "I don't plan to get married for the time being, marriage is too troublesome!"

In the previous life, I was young and ignorant, and had three girlfriends who were outstanding in appearance, and it was very refreshing to have sex with each other; but later I realized that women are troublesome, with big heads to death.

Beauty is important, but he is more afraid of trouble.

Sun Mengxi said: "My lord, you are the county lord, and you were born in Tanhua. In the future, you will be appointed as a marquis and worship a minister. It's not a big deal. A little girl is born like a normal wife, so naturally she doesn't have the chance to be a regular wife. Being a concubine is enough!"

Li Mu smiled and said: "The status of a concubine is very low! Why should you wrong yourself, girl!"

Sun Mengxi said: "I'd rather be a hero's concubine than a mediocre wife!"

Li Mu was speechless.

Just like in the previous life, she would rather be someone's mistress than some dog-licking girlfriend.

"You guys are good at calculating!" Li Mu said in his heart.Firstly, he is Tanhualang and a county official, so he can be called a diamond stock. Marrying him as a concubine is actually not a disadvantage; secondly, marrying him as a concubine also buys insurance for the Sun family.

Don't suffer a loss, but make a lot of money.

"I'd rather be a concubine of a hero than a wife of a mediocre woman. You have good backbone and ambition!" Li Mu said, "It's not enough just to have ambition. You also need to have ability! Not just any woman can be an official Concubine. If you want to be the official's concubine, you have to be good-looking first, it's too ugly, don't!"

Sun Mengxi nodded and said, "What does that little girl look like?"

Li Mu said: "You are just a delicate idiot, not outstanding! You barely passed!"

Sun Mengxi said, "What else?"

"And it can't be a vase!" Li Mu said: "It proves that you have a skill, proves your talent and learning. For example, you have encountered a problem right now. Look at this bowl, there are handprints and fingerprints... Excuse me, how do you make rubbings?" With fingerprints, there is only one stick of incense in time!"

"If you can't do it, please leave!"

Li Mu said lightly: "Not everyone is qualified to be a hero's concubine! Time is only a stick of incense!"

With that said, Li Mu stepped forward, took out a stick of incense, and lit it directly.

Waited quietly, and then expected Sun Mengxi to fail and be eliminated directly.

Sun Mengxi was silent.

Thinking about the solution, a trace of unwillingness in his heart was burning, turning into endless anger.
