Chapter 39 The Case of Zhang Biao

The Zhou family was also guilty of framing, and one less charge of attempted poisoning than Mu Yunlian. was killed.

The master kept breaking out in cold sweat, and his hands were shaking while taking notes.The new county magistrate is really ruthless. He doesn't show any sympathy to the Zhou family. He directly uses the heaviest punishment according to the law. If it wasn't for the arrival of the adults, I really think you have old grievances. Otherwise, why would you treat Mu Yunlian and Zhang Biao? These two main criminals have kept some sympathy, but they will not let go of an accomplice like the Zhou family?
He was slandering him, so he naturally didn't know that Tao Tang didn't intend to let Mu Yunlian go.

When Tao Tang returned to the county government, he threw Mu Yunlian's master and servant into the prison, and waited for all the evidence to be handed over to the capital's criminal department. a favor.

Of course, this is all superficial. In fact, Tao Tang was thinking: even if this notorious woman was to be killed, it should be done by the shepherd himself.

Tao Tang thought to himself: Mu family, Mu family, you unite your family and Your Majesty to recommend me to take office, isn’t it to properly deal with Mu Yunlian and Zhang Biao, so as to save some face for you two, then I will go along with it clearly. You intend to build a plank road, but you didn't say that you can't hide Chencang. Although the capital doesn't know what Mu Yunlian is doing here, and you don't want the people in the capital to know, I am sure that her story can be spread in the capital. There is a lot of uproar, the kind that can’t be heard, there is no evidence to send her to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, but she can be sent to the Mu family’s family law, whether it is sent to become a monk or directly killed, in short, She can't escape punishment. As for Zhang Biao, I won't let him commit suicide in fear of crime while here. I will send him to the Ministry of Punishment safely.

After dealing with the Zhou family, Tao Tang first reported today's events in detail to the magistrate, and then asked about last night's events in detail.

Tao Tang pointed to the bewildered county magistrate and said, "You, take me and the magistrate to the jail."

When they arrived at the prison, the magistrate shrank his pupils when he saw the felons, "That's not right! Aren't felons required to wear handcuffs and shackles according to regulations? Who opened the shackles and shackles around their necks?"

The county magistrate wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "Hehe, my lord, we have a lot of serious criminals here, and there are not enough shackles and shackles, so the management is a little lax."

Tao Tang spread out the case file in his hand to read it at a glance, raised his eyes and glanced around, and snorted coldly, "There are a total of 53 serious criminals, and none of them is wearing shackles and shackles. Is it not enough, or there are none at all?" what?"

The felons were not afraid of the boiling water, they were not afraid of the troubles, and they shouted loudly: "What's wrong? That's because we used the money. After the county magistrate collected the money, he asked the jailer to pick those things that got in the way for us. "

Tao Tang asked the prisoner with a sullen face, "Which county magistrate received the money?"

The prisoner pointed his chin at Zhang Biao, who had become an inmate in the cell next door, "Who else could it be? The county magistrate who arrested us before had died long ago, otherwise we would not have survived the next autumn, but now we are still alive." Can live a year, hahaha"

Tao Tang turned around and cupped his hands slightly to the magistrate: "My lord, I will rectify these loopholes in the management gradually in the future. The lax management alone will not cause the escape. The cause is Zhang Biao's private opening of the prison door. But if you ask outside the door, you don’t have to open the door to go in, let’s first ask him why he did this, and you have to go back to the government office after dealing with it.”

The magistrate nodded lightly, "Well, you just came here, and this matter is complicated. I will preside over the trial, and you will watch from the sidelines."

Zhao Er took two small officials with a wink and brought over two chairs and a table.

Tao Tang finally paid attention to Zhao Er who had been active in front of his eyes since he came here, and he remembered this official servant calmly.

"The cause of this incident is Zhang Biao's self-inflicted trap. Xiancheng, tell me, why did he act so recklessly?" After sitting down, the magistrate slapped the table and began to interrogate the county magistrate. He had already seen that The county magistrate had a guilty conscience and wanted to ask a long time ago, but he was on his way, and the anger in his heart could no longer be suppressed at this moment.

The county magistrate was so frightened that he knelt on the ground with a thud, and even slapped himself twice, "My lord, it's all my fault, my sloppy mouth. At that time, Mr. Zhang, ah no, Zhang Biao, he was worried about his political achievements, so I said You can find out if there are any unjust, false or wrongly decided cases, and helping the victim to reverse the case is considered a political achievement. Zhang Biao rushed into the prison after hearing this, but I dissuaded him. The two officials came together, but he didn't listen, and came in alone, saying that this was his territory and no one dared to overthrow the sky, he probably felt that he was here to avenge them, and the prisoners would respect him, yes He must be grateful to Dade, so he took it lightly."

"Idiot!" The magistrate finally couldn't hold back, swearing, and threw a teacup on the cell door. In that cell, Zhang Biao was sitting there leisurely looking at the sky.

After asking this point, the magistrate felt that he didn't need to ask any more, since it was obvious that Zhang Biao's overthinking caused the trouble.

Just as he was about to get up, Mrs. Mu covered herself tightly with a cloak and walked in with two nuns.

Mrs. Mu first bowed slightly to greet the magistrate, and then nodded slightly to Tao Tang.

"Master Zhifu, the woman came here to make a clean break with Zhang Biao, and at the same time report the case to you."

Before the magistrate could speak, Zhang Biao in the cell yelled, "You wicked woman, how dare you resign for me? You have violated the three cardinal principles and five principles and violated the law. Mr. magistrate, you should arrest this wicked woman as well. I killed her, an unruly woman, and I just treated my aunt a little better. If her brother was wronged, I would uphold justice for them. Because of this, this wicked woman became jealous and held a grudge, and she even used my name to suspend her studies Resign me from the capital, don't distinguish between public and private, disturb Chaogang, magistrate, if you don't arrest her and punish her severely, you will be ignoring the law!"

The magistrate pinched Jingming acupoint, how did such a person become an official in the first place!
Tao Tang gave Zhao Er a wink.

Zhao Er understood immediately, and took the people in and blocked Zhang Biao's mouth with rags. Zhang Biao was wearing handcuffs, shackles and shackles, and he couldn't find any other way to resist except whining.

Mrs. Mu raised her hand lightly, motioning for the nanny to hand over the things to herself, "Zhang Biao, are you sure it's worth it for a dead person?"

Mrs. Mu handed a wooden box in front of the magistrate with both hands, "My lord, this is the first murder case that a woman wants to report. Wang Ba is dead! That precious son of Zhang Biao killed his own uncle, oh, no, It's my own father! This is the murder weapon. Many servants saw it at the time. I locked the murderer in the firewood room. The witnesses were also locked in the backyard. And Aunt Wang, who witnessed the whole process, went crazy with a knife She chopped my arm, I punished her with ten boards, and she is still lying in her own room."

Everyone was stunned, even the serious criminals gathered at the cell door and waited quietly to eat melons.

Tao Tang shook his hand, and he knocked over the teacup, splashing water all over his body.

Just as Zhao Er was about to go up to wipe him, Tao Tang raised his hand to stop him, signaling that he was fine.

The magistrate glanced at the blood-stained knife in the box, raised his head and asked, "How did Zhang Biao's concubine become Wang Ba's son again? What's going on?"

County magistrate Zhang glared at Mrs. Mu, slammed the shackles on the door of the cell, and kept whining: "You wicked woman, it's you, it must be you, you framed Aunt Wang, right?"She is so weak and unable to control herself, dragging her sickly body to help you housekeeper, she is so flexible and always puts you first, why can't you tolerate her?You still charge her with such a crime, it's really heartbreaking.The two children she taught were also good, so how could she commit murder?I think you are crazy. Ever since Da Lang was poisoned, you have seen everyone as a murderer. If Aunt Wang gives way again and again, what else do you want?
"Mommy!"

Mrs. Mu glanced at Zhang Biao faintly out of the corner of her eye, ignoring that he was doing his best there, and as soon as she gave an order, the two nuns beside her stepped forward and respectfully handed over two big bundles.

"Master Zhifu, please take a look. Here is the evidence that Aunt Wang secretly communicated with others. There is also the property that her family has secretly transferred out over the years. In addition, there is also the life experience of her pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses."

The magistrate looked through the evidence, and felt that he had also eaten a big melon, "How is this possible? My God, this person, can do such a thing?"

Mrs. Mu glanced at the good husband that her stepmother had carefully selected for her back then, tears streaming down her face, "My lord, please make the decision for the women! I found the stable woman who gave birth to Aunt Wang back then, and I am sure that Aunt Wang is not dead at all. To give birth, I had someone check it for Aunt Wang. Not only did she never have a baby, she was also drugged. She would never have a baby in this life. The woman forced others to give birth to him. Therefore, Zhang Biao has always cherished and raised the son and daughter who have nothing to do with him and our family. Distributed to the concubines. My stepmother asked Zhang Biao to spoil his concubine and destroy his wife, so he did so. They were not very popular, and they poisoned me, thinking of killing me so that they could occupy my property and enjoy the glory. Aunt Wang He also poisoned my son, and Zhang Biao was thinking of marrying my daughter to a distant nephew of my stepmother. Evidence, here are some evidences that Zhang Biao used his power for personal gain to bully the people over the years, please avenge the women! Do justice for the people! Biao fights to the end, I must let him get the punishment he deserves!"

The magistrate was at a loss for what to do. The surprise he received was too great. He secretly glanced at Tao Tang and saw him nodding. , "Tao Tang, sort out Zhang Biao's crimes one by one, send the criminals, evidence and witnesses to the capital, and hand them over to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for trial!"

"Yes!" Tao Tang replied respectfully.

The prefect left after explaining.

Tao Tang also dismissed some irrelevant people, Mrs. Liu Mu and Zhang Biao looked at each other through the door of the cell with jealousy.

Mrs. Mu looked at Zhang Biao and laughed bitterly, "Zhang Biao, how does it feel to be tricked? Your mother-in-law, who has always been obedient, makes you feel good about raising her grandchildren." ? Oh, by the way, you don’t know yet, the concubine daughter of Liu Yuanwai who gave birth to twins for Wang Ba is actually the illegitimate daughter of my good stepmother and Liu Yuanwai. How about it? Surprising enough? Do you think she Aunt Wang and Aunt Wang are all planning for you, but they are actually doing it for themselves. You are a poor tool, and they will kick you out when you are useless. Hahaha, Zhang Biao, take time to savor these surprises Let's see you in the court in the capital!"

Mrs. Mu staggered out of the prison with a smile and tears, leaving Zhang Biao sitting on the ground with a pale face.

What did he do?His wife was almost killed by him, his own son was almost murdered, and his daughter was almost pushed into the fire pit by him. He also raised a pair of children for others, and handed over his children's property to other people's children. I have no doubts about Aunt Wang and the lady in charge of the Mu family!

As soon as Mrs. Mu got out of the prison, her eyes darkened and she passed out.

Tao Tang hurriedly stepped forward and picked him up, "Hey, I knew you were stern, stabbing Zhang Biao's heart with every sentence, and your own heart was broken into pieces."

Mrs. Mu's confidant, Nanny, stepped forward, "Young Biao, give it to the old slave, and the old slave will carry the young lady back."

Tao Tang kept walking, "Nurse, let me carry her back. When I was four years old, I was naughty and fell from a tree and fell. At that time, my cousin carried me to the doctor. I grew up. There are only so many things you can do for her, so please give me this chance to do things for her. Cousin has been hit hard this time, so you should pay more attention. You will be leaving for Beijing in a few days. Take good care of her, as well as my nephew and niece. They are usually well taken care of by my cousin, and have never experienced a big storm. Suddenly they are on the cusp. I am worried that they will not be able to bear it, so please take care of them. .”

A friend in adversity sees the truth, the lady did not love the young master in vain back then.Mammy burst into tears, "Okay, this old slave will take good care of Miss and the others, please rest assured, Young Master Biao."
