ruffian mixed in ancient times

Chapter 173 "Shaozhou Magistrate"

After the slapping, Ah Zhen pinched his swollen palm and cursed: "It's thick skinned, it hurts my hand from beating me."

Seeing Brother Zhen getting angry, everyone dared not say a word, Qianyun held his hand tightly in distress and said, "Husband, why don't you hand it over to the government." She gently stroked her husband's red and swollen palm.

"Just now, Mo Ku should have given them a sword alone." Ah Zhen said angrily.

Don't listen to his regretful tone, eyes brightened and nodded excitedly: "Brother Zhen, it's not too late to appreciate it now."

Ah Zhen rolled his eyes, pretending he didn't hear it, and shouted with a straight face: "Break their legs for me."

The three flower picking thieves were shocked, they didn't expect this person to be so gentle, but he attacked so fiercely, before they had time to beg for mercy, their legs were empty, and the feet of the three were cut off alive.

The big and small generals and Mo Ku captured the three of them. Hearing Brother Zhen's order, they stomped on each of their feet twice with all their might.

There was a crisp sound of broken bones, and the three flower pickers immediately fell to the ground and wailed.

Ah Zhen saw the three lying on the ground, dripping with cold sweat, crying out in pain, squatting in front of them happily and said: "Aren't you good at running? Run again if you have the guts?" Being abolished is equivalent to becoming a useless person.

"Take off their clothes, tie them to a tree for me, and let's go to the Yamen tomorrow morning." Ah Zhen stood up, stepped on the broken leg of the flower picking boss, and gave orders.

The female relatives covered their faces in shame when they heard what he said, and soon the three of them were stripped down to only a pair of shorts, which were firmly tied to the poplar trees. Shivering from the cold.

"The general and the young general keep a close eye on them, don't let them run away." After speaking, he approached and picked up the rope, nodded in satisfaction when he saw that it was firm and not loose, and walked into the wing holding Qianyun's hand.

Liu Fengyang and Guo Zhixiao saw that the real brother had returned to the room, and cast sympathetic eyes on the three flower pickers. The evil two deliberately raised their feet and touched the broken legs of the three brothers. This touch immediately made the three people miserable. It's called Lianlian.

Seeing the three brothers sweating in pain, Liu Fengyang joked to Guo Zhixiao: "Zhixiao, these three brothers are stupid, it's not a good idea to hit someone, and they even hit the real brother's Yun'er."

Hearing what he said, Guo Zhixiao raised his foot and kicked the wicked one, which immediately caused the three of them to scream in desolation, "Feng Yang, the three brothers are lighting a lamp in the latrine."

Liu Fengyang raised his eyebrows and asked, "How?"

"Looking for shit (death)"

"Hahaha." The two laughed at the same time, turned and returned to the room.

The two generals stood by the side, seeing the two of them leaving, raised their eyebrows, and shot the three brothers with sinister eyes, and couldn't help but raised their feet to lightly touch the broken legs of the three brothers, and immediately gasped. The screams of the three Caihua brothers crossed the windy night, and the faint cold moon in the night sky was still glowing yellow.

"The weather is really nice today."

As soon as Ah Zhen opened the door, he listened to the low chirping of the birds, and the sun was shining brightly. He didn't feel the arrival of spring until now.

Seeing him dressed lightly, Qianyun ran over holding the purple jade sable, turned around to dress him, and muttered: "It's still so cold, be careful if you catch a cold, you're so old and you don't know how to take care of it." Own."

After wearing the sable clip, Ah Zhen held her small face and said with a smile: "Come on, let's go and see the buddies picking flowers." As he spoke, he tightened Yun'er's sable clothes, and then tied up the black hair she had fallen by her ears. He reached her ear, took her hand and walked towards the poplar trees.

From far away they saw a large group of people surrounded by the poplar tree, needless to say the two generals, from the night guard to now, the two Mo have not slept all night, only Liu Fengyang and Guo's three brothers and sisters are full of energy.

Seeing this, he was full of energy and greeted Liu Fengyang and the others, "Good morning, everyone."

With his move, everyone immediately came to their senses, Liu Fengyang saw him coming, and said happily: "Brother Zhen, the head catcher and the yamen servants are here."

"Captain, yamen servant? Why are you here?"

"It was the waiter in the shop who was delivering water in the morning. Seeing the three brothers tied here, he told the shopkeeper in fear that the shopkeeper reported to the official." After speaking, Liu Fengyang tapped the shopkeeper with his fan hand.

At this point, Ah Zhen raised his eyebrows and looked at the shopkeeper. The old shopkeeper said with embarrassment: "Well, I'm afraid of killing people, so so"

Ah Zhen nodded after listening to his explanation, no wonder the shopkeeper is here, seeing three stripped pigs in his inn, if he died in his inn, he would be in trouble.

Seeing Brother Zhen nodding, Liu Fengyang introduced with a smile on his face, "Brother Zhen, this is a head arrester, and the head arrester hopes to bring these three people back to the court."

"Of course, take it away." Ah Zhen waved his hand, seeing the three brothers fell into a coma from the cold.

After finishing speaking, the head catcher clasped his fists at him and said, "Thanks to the strong man for solving the disaster of Shao Cheng."

"Where, where."

"I also invited the strong man to the yamen for a cup of tea, and the master will ask you some questions on the spot." The head catcher is very polite.

"Then what are you waiting for, let's go."

Said that Ah Zhen took Qianyun's hand, turned around and walked towards the door of the inn, ignoring the group of people behind him.

The head catcher was stunned, but he didn't expect the young master to turn around and leave after speaking.After thinking about it, I realized that I was right, I said to leave, why would I stay here if I didn’t leave, and after I figured it out, I shouted to the Yamen guards behind me: "Take me back to the court."

After the arrest, a large number of yamen servants took over the hands of the big and small generals, and escorted the three brothers to the yamen.

bang bang bang

"The flower picker has been caught."

bang bang bang

"The flower picker has been caught."

Ah Zhen was speechless, just now he walked to the door of the inn, there were a few servants running past beating Luo and drums, shouting while running.

The yamen's call made everyone in the city excited. A bunch of people gathered around and whispered together. They didn't know what they were discussing, but everyone's faces couldn't hide their excitement.

As soon as the head catcher escorted the three brothers out of the inn, the whispering people immediately shot their eyes at the three faded pigs, and everyone looked at them with infinite contempt.

The headhunter escorted the three brothers, and the journey was less than halfway, and all the common people crowded around to watch on both sides.

"Kill him." Someone in the crowd threw a carrot, and the carrot hit one of the three brothers in the face.

Taking the lead, the common people rioted, wild vegetables, rotten eggs, and carrots flew all over the sky.

Ah Zhen's group of people quickly stepped aside, he gestured suspiciously to the three brothers on the street and asked everyone: "Is that a stone?" I saw a palm-sized stone standing at the feet of the three brothers, so big The stone will kill people.

"Yeah, what's wrong with Brother Zhen?" Seeing his surprise, Liu Fengyang asked Fox.

"No, you go and tell the arresters not to dawdle, and take them to the Yamen." Ah Zhen was dumbfounded, don't be killed by Qunou before the trial.

Soon a group of people came to the public hall of the government office, the elder had been sitting upright in the hall and waiting, when he saw the prisoner coming, he immediately sat upright.

"Master, they were the ones who caught these three flower pickers." As soon as the head catcher came in, he would report to their master.

The magistrate immediately stood up and clasped his fists to them and said, "Thank you, all strong men."

"Where, it should be." Ah Zhen saw how polite the county magistrate was, and couldn't help but sigh, why is the same official so poor?

"I also invite all strong men to stand aside. After I have finished interrogating these three people, I will invite you to drink a cup of tea and reward the silver."

Ah Zhen saw that the county magistrate was gentle and polite, and put business matters first, nodded and smiled: "Of course, the magistrate's business is important, we will wait."

"Thank you, everyone."

After the magistrate finished his courteous greetings with them, he sat down in the hall, clapped the table and shouted: "Take a prisoner."

"Mighty" The yamen servants on both sides shouted expressionlessly.

The three brothers were escorted in. They had already changed into white robes, and there was a big word "criminal" on their chests.

"Bold thieves, heinous crimes, report all the women one by one." The county magistrate shouted.

The three brothers were so exhausted that they didn't dare to hide anything, and within half an hour they reported all the women who had been recruited this year.The magistrate looked through the report records, saw that there were more than a dozen women in the records, he couldn't help but slapped the gavel angrily and shouted: "Bold thief, he has raped nearly a hundred women in the past year."

The magistrate slapped the gavel on both sides of the yamen, and the officials on both sides of the gavel were expressionless and mighty. After the majesty, the magistrate raised his face and drew a wooden order and shouted: "Come here, each person will be beaten fifty times, sent to prison, and executed after autumn. "After speaking, he opened the confession book and ticked it with the red pen, and handed it to the master. The master held the stack of confession books and walked in front of the three brothers, and caught them with his powerful palm, and let them draw the pledge.The bustling big board began to whine and fight.

The people watching at the gate of the mansion shouted happily.

Ah Zhen was surprised, and asked Guo Zhixiao next to him: "Is this the execution after the fall?"

"That's right, adultery and adultery are the same as castration. If there are more than two people, they will be executed." Guo Zhixiao said naturally.

Ah Zhen was shocked when he said this, but after thinking about it later, women in ancient times valued chastity more than life, which is also a matter of course.

"My lord, the chief official is here." Before the three brothers finished fighting, a yamen servant came to report in a hurry.

The county magistrate was puzzled by the report and said to himself: "Why is he here?" After muttering, he got up and walked to the hall.

As soon as the county magistrate came down to the hall, the official in official uniform led people in and walked in, his face was even more ashen, and the flames in his eyes kept rising.

"Xiaoxian kowtowed to see Mr. Chang Shi." The county magistrate saw that Chang Shi came, followed by soldiers, clapping their sleeves and knelt on the ground.

Chang Shi glared at the three brothers in the hall, his bearded mouth moved and said: "The county magistrate doesn't need to be polite."

"Master Xie Changshi." After speaking, the magistrate got up and asked doubtfully: "I don't know where Master Changshi came from?"

Before he finished speaking, Chang Shi pointed to the three brothers on the ground and asked, "Is this the flower picker?"

The county magistrate saw that his face was livid and his eyes were burning, and he didn't know what he was talking about, so he replied without any concealment: "Yes, this is the flower picker who is buzzing in the busy city."

"Is the verification true?"

"It's true. After checking, there were more than a dozen more women victims."

Just as the county magistrate finished speaking, Chang Shi snorted and spewed out two green smokes, "Yirou."

Chang Shi's irrelevant call sounded, and the Ah Zhen group who were watching the theater were stunned. Why did Yi Rou appear?
Soon behind Chang Shi, a petite girl came out from among the soldiers. The girl's eyes were red and swollen, and she was still wiping tears.

After Jiaonu came out, everyone realized that Yirou was her.

The charming girl walked up to Lord Changshi and murmured, "Uncle."

It turned out that Lord Changshi was Yirou's uncle, and everyone understood this time.The only thing I don't understand is why call her out?
wonderful, wonderful

stimulate, stimulate
Hearing her call, Chang Shi's livid face softened a lot, and he said to the charming girl, "Yirou, look at who insulted you." He cast his angry eyes at the three brothers again.

"Yes." Yi Roufu was dressed, carefully carrying the lotus step in fear, and walked towards the beaten brother three, his small eyes were slightly suppressed, and after taking a deep breath, he kept backing away in shock, Tears fell from the eyes in an instant.

Seeing this, Chang Shi carefully supported her and asked softly, "Which one is it?"

"Yes, it's the one in the middle." After speaking, he covered his face and kept crying.

Seeing this, Chang Shi felt a pain in his heart, and shouted to those behind him: "Come here, take her back to the house."

After speaking, Yirou wiped away tears and left with the soldier.

The magistrate saw the whole thing from the beginning to the end, and in his horror, he never thought that these three thieves were so bold that they dared to rape Lord Changshi's niece.

Master Changshi saw Yirou leave, pointed to the flower picker lying in the middle with a gloomy face and said: "Master Zhixian, can you hand this person over to me?"

Seeing his face like this, the magistrate was terrified in his heart and dared not disobey and clasped his fists: "Of course." Anyway, they will die sooner or later.

For his response, Chang Shi shouted loudly. "Come here, tie this person to my courtyard." After finishing speaking, four soldiers came out from behind, and immediately dragged the flower picker up.

Seeing this, Ah Zhen turned his eyes elsewhere, pretending he didn't see it.

Guo Zhixiao learned from him, but he didn't see it either.

Guo Zhiren didn't see it either.

Guo Qinmi didn't even see it.

Chang Shi and his group came and went in a hurry. As soon as the others left, the three brothers instantly became two brothers.

Liu Fengyang saw that Chang Shi left after mentioning someone, and said in a low voice: "This is against the laws of the Great Zhou, won't you stop it?"

When he asked, Ah Zhen's face remained unchanged, but the Guo brothers and sisters were full of discomfort.

"What's wrong with Feng Yang? A gust of wind swept by just now, and his eyes were mixed with sand." He squinted his eyes and exclaimed in surprise: "What's the matter, why did the three brothers become two brothers?"

Liu Fengyang almost fell over with this startled question, and shouted in disbelief.

Qianyun blushed slightly, wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh.

"Yeah, yeah, the wind was so strong just now, I couldn't open my eyes for a while, what's going on with Fengyang?" Guo Zhixiao saw that Brother Zhen said hell in the daytime, and he was even more innocent.

"Yeah, it's so big." Qin Mi also echoed, and Guo Zhiren next to him nodded in agreement.

Seeing the appearance of these four people, Liu Fengyang immediately foamed at the mouth, rolled his eyes, and fell on the general next to him.

After Chang Shi left, the county magistrate settled down, and returned to the hall with his lips pursed. After sitting still, he shouted: "Come here, put these two thieves into prison."

After saying that, the two guards dragged the two brothers up and took them to the prison.

"Retire," the county magistrate shouted, and everyone dispersed immediately.

Seeing that the crowd dispersed, Ah Zhen stood up and cupped his fists and said, "Lord magistrate, is there a prisoner named Li Nengwu in your county?"

When he asked, the county magistrate was stunned. This Li Nengwu was sentenced to death yesterday. I don't know why they brought up the old story again, but he didn't hide it: "Yes, there is a Li Nengwu in the county prison. He was sentenced to be executed after autumn by the official.”

Upon hearing this, Ah Zhen clasped his fists and asked, "I don't know what crime this Li Nengwu committed?"

"Three days ago, Li Nengwu murdered and killed him. He has already signed a confession. The evidence for this matter is solid, so you don't need to mention it again."

Hearing what he said, Ah Zhen couldn't help sighing secretly, this Li Nengwu is really a die-hard guy, he would rather die than marry.

"Master Zhixian, is there any act of torture?" Ah Zhen asked slowly.

This question immediately made the magistrate look bad, "As a local parent, this county has never had a record of being tortured. This is known to the people in the city. If you don't believe me, you can ask the people in the city. You will leave as soon as you have received the money. "The magistrate's tone suddenly became bad.

As soon as he said that, the head catcher next to him brought a bag of silver and handed it to Ah Zhen. The magistrate said: "This is 500 taels of silver, which is the same as the number on the list. Please check it out."

Seeing the bag of silver being handed over, Ah pushed it back with both hands and said, "Lord Magistrate, I don't need this money, but I don't think Li Nengwu's murder case is as simple as it appears on the surface."

As soon as he finished speaking, the county magistrate raised his eyebrows and said angrily, "If you can provide evidence of Li Nengwu's innocence before the autumn judgment, the county will re-judgment."

When he said this, Ah Zhen laughed, what he wanted was this effect, he clasped his fists and said: "Then thank the magistrate." After speaking, he snatched the bag of silver in his hand.

The catcher was still carrying the money, but suddenly his hand was empty, and he was stunned. Didn't he just say no?Why are you taking it away now?

Seeing him like this, the county magistrate lost all affection for him, but he didn't express it, and said to them: "If you are all right, please leave." His tone was no longer polite.

Liu Fengyang and others saw that brother Zhen said no, and then robbed him again, and their faces flushed with shame. They are all big men with heads and faces, and they can't afford to lose face. Just go out, stay more and more embarrassing.
