Jiang Sanlang and the others watched Chen Ergou being taken away, there was nothing they could do.

"Sanlang, why do you think Chen Guanglu came to arrest people? Isn't he under the county lieutenant?" Jiang Erlang asked.

Jiang Sanlang snorted, "Chen Guanglu didn't come to arrest people, he followed the yamen servants to rob people."

These yamen servants often mixed with Chen Guanglu. They knew there was a problem, but they couldn't stop it.

"Forget it, let's eat quickly. Anyway, Chen Guanglu dare not let him go in front of so many people. We all watched helplessly as he took him away."

Jiang Erlang greeted several villagers to sit down and eat, "Thank you for your hard work this time, help our brothers catch Chen Ergou."

Everyone laughed and said, "It's not hard work, let's just come to the county to play."

Jiang Sanlang clasped his fists at the crowd: "When I go back this time, I will give everyone twenty catties of cotton seeds."

"Okay, okay!" Everyone laughed and sat around the table.

They had been coveting the cotton seeds for a long time, but they were not ashamed to ask Jiang Sanlang to buy them, because he had said that they would not sell them for the time being.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Sanlang would give them twenty catties of seeds today, and they were all very happy.

This trip to the county was worth it.

"Boss, add two more plates of mutton and two roast chickens!" Jiang Sanlang said to the shopkeeper, "Is there any rice wine? Bring us two more jars."

"Okay! Wait a moment, I'll have someone cut up the meat! I've sent the kid to the wine shop to sell the rice wine." The shopkeeper of the restaurant responded happily.

Today, there are big customers at the table, not only willing to order meat dishes, but also to buy wine.

You must know that those who run restaurants only make money from meat dishes and drinks, and the prices of vegetarian dishes are cheap. Even if there are [-] dishes, there is not much money with interest.

Soon the wine and meat were on the table, and Jiang Sanlang took everyone to have a good meal.

After eating and drinking, he asked his second brother to take the villagers back first, while he stayed and waited for the county government to start the trial.

"Then let's go back, Saburo, be careful."

Jiang Erlang: "I also want to go back to the construction site."

He and the third brother came back from leave with the supervisor, just to find a child. For this reason, Saburo gave the supervisor five taels of silver as a favor.

Now that the child has been found, and the kidnappers have taken him to the county government, it's time for him to go back to work.

"Okay, you go back first, and I will go back after the trial."

Jiang Sanlang clasped his fists at several villagers again, "Thank you for your help today, I, Jiang Sanlang, will never forget."

"Why are you being polite to us?"

The villagers patted Jiang Sanlang and said with a smile: "We are all in the same village, no one has any difficulties."

Afterwards, everyone took their leave and left with Jiang Erlang.

Besides, Chen Ergou was taken back to the county government office by the yamen servants and thrown into a cell alone.

Chen Guanglu came in and knelt down in front of him.

Chen Ergou suddenly felt bad, and moved back instinctively.

But his hands were tied behind his back, and he was sitting on the ground, with the wooden railing behind him, so he couldn't move very far.

"Chen Ergou, do you know me?" Chen Guanglu smiled sadly, and pulled out a dagger from his waist.

Chen Ergou was terrified, and said in a trembling voice, "I know you."

Chen Guanglu's eyes turned cold, and he suddenly thrust the dagger into his head.

"Ah," Chen Ergou screamed, his crotch was wet.

With a sneer, Chen Guanglu pulled the dagger out of the wooden post next to his head, and asked, "Do you know me?"

Chen Ergou was frightened, and shook his head again and again: "I don't know you, I don't know you."

"That's right." Chen Guanglu patted his face with a dagger, "You have to remember, you don't know me, and you don't know the Han family. This kidnapping case was done by yourself and has nothing to do with others, otherwise , I can let you live, but also let you die."

Chen Ergou nodded again and again: "I did it all, it has nothing to do with others."

Chen Guanglu snorted, put the dagger back into the cowhide holster at his waist, and said, "As long as you plead guilty, I can protect you from death, and didn't your son go to the military camp? I can also protect him from death." .”

"Really, really?" Chen Ergou asked with tears in his eyes, "Can you really keep us from dying?"

"Of course. I keep my word." Chen Guanglu stood up, staring at him like a hawk, and said viciously: "But if you dare to say a Korean word in the court, I will kill your family and grandchildren!"

"I, I won't tell! Absolutely not!" Chen Ergou looked at Chen Guanglu expectantly, "Can I really see my son?"

"Yes." Chen Guanglu walked outside, "If you say something you shouldn't say, you won't see anything."

On the second day, the magistrate of Mei County ordered people to ascend to the hall.

With a mighty shout, two groups of yamen servants stood on both sides.

This time, not only were the plaintiffs and defendants complete, but the police also went to Chuanhe Town to bring Mrs. Han here.

Yingbao also went to the court with her parents, saw the Han sisters standing there, and thought about how to answer for a while so that they could be convicted.

The county magistrate patted the gavel and shouted, "Who are Han Juniang and Han Yueniang?"

The Han sisters stepped forward to salute.

"Folkwoman Han Juniang (folkwoman Han Yueniang), I have met the high officials of the Ming Dynasty."

May County Magistrate: "Someone sued you for hiring murderers to rob children. Is there such a thing?"

"Injustice!" Han Juniang, Han Yueniang, knelt on the ground, shouting grievances in unison, "This matter is purely nonsense, why should we hire someone to snatch the child?"

"That's right, you are wronged, my sister has no grievances with the Jiang family, yet he framed us."

The county magistrate of Mei glanced at the crowd, his eyes fell on Xiao Han, and said coldly: "But Jiang Yingbao testified that she was plundered to Zhouhe County by Han Yueniang, and was rescued by a man surnamed Wu before returning to Qinchuan County. "

The Han sisters were startled at the same time, looking at the child in Jiang Sanlang's arms.

When they entered the court just now, they didn't notice that there was a child in Jiang Sanlang's arms.

"Senior officer, how can a three-year-old child's words be taken seriously?"

Xiao Han reacted quickly and immediately argued: "I did pick up a child that day, and I wanted to send her home, but I was in a hurry at the time, so I took her to Zhouhe County together, but I didn't expect to pick her up for the second time. When she was there, she ran away and disappeared. The high official, I just took her for a ride because of her pity. I didn't have any evil intentions. I didn't expect that my kindness would not be rewarded. I was bitten back, and my innocence was tainted for nothing. "

Yingbao was simply amazed at this woman.

This lie is better than her.

Mei County Magistrate looked at Yingbao: "Is that really the case?"

Yingbao immediately got down from her father's arms, bowed to the county magistrate Mei, and answered bluntly, "She's lying! This woman threatened to cut off my nose, cut off my hands and feet, and said that if I don't obey, I will talk to others." When she mentioned who her parents were, she killed me and threw me to the dogs."

snort!Who can't make up stories?She is worth both of them!

Xiao Han gritted her teeth and stared at Ying Bao, "I never said these words, children can't lie!"

Yingbao blinked, threw herself into her father's arms and shouted: "Father, she is broken, she even kicked me, and said she would sell me to Hualou for 20 taels of silver."
