Chapter 247

Finally, on the eighth day after the imperial envoy arrived in Yixian County, Wu Danqing went to the county magistrate's mansion with all the charges against Yang Hong, a rice merchant, brought by the people and the handwritten letter bestowed by the emperor.

Under Yang Hong's astonished gaze, Wu Danqing sat down on the county magistrate Yang Hong's seat expressionlessly, and with a wave of his hand, five hundred elite soldiers rushed in and surrounded Yang Hong!

"Yang Hong, are you convicted?" Wu Danqing slapped the gavel heavily, and the audience was dead silent.

Yang Hong was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly argued, "I don't know what your lord is talking about. Although I am not as diligent and loving as the virtuous ministers who have been passed down in history, I dare not commit corruption and pervert the law!"

"Then you see for yourself, what are these things!" Wu Danqing was furious, and directly put all the complaints on Yang Hong's face.

Seeing that his lord was humiliated, the yamen servant in the county magistrate's mansion immediately wanted to step forward, but was blocked by elite soldiers.

Wu Danqing glanced at these people slowly, and said word by word, "I was ordered by the emperor to investigate the embezzlement of the disaster funds. The emperor ordered me to kill you first and then play it. But Yang Xiancheng, I will only put you in prison for the time being. If the evidence is convincing, then don’t blame me for being cruel and merciless, if I have wronged you, you should return to Beijing to plead guilty to the emperor! Take it down!”

At the same time, Lu Boqi also imprisoned Yang Hong's family, the young and old, and interrogated them one by one about everything they knew about the disaster fund. Even Yang Hong's ten-year-old daughter came with Mrs. Yang.

There was always a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, he carefully looked at the two people in front of him, and suddenly clapped his hands, and the elite soldiers at the door immediately brought in a hot oil pan from outside the door and put it in the yard.

Looking from the house, you can even see small oil droplets splashed when the oil boils.

He walked up to Mrs. Yang with a smile, and said softly, "Madam, do you know about Master Yang's embezzlement of disaster funds?"

"You nonsense, my husband is not a corrupt person, you don't want to slander him!" Mrs. Yang replied with a hint of shame and anger on her beautiful face.

As soon as the words fell, Yang Hong's daughter also yelled loudly, "Bad guy, bad guy, give me back my father!"

Instead of being angry, Lu Boqi smiled, squatted beside Yang Hong's daughter, took out a delicate little sugar figurine wrapped in oil paper from his sleeve, and coaxed softly, "Little sister, be good, why don't you tell uncle that your daddy usually makes it at home?" What? If you tell Uncle, Uncle will give you this piece of candy, it's delicious!"

Mrs. Yang covered the little girl's mouth and shouted, "Niuniu, don't talk to him, don't talk to him, it's poisonous!"

"Mrs. Yang, it's wrong for you to lie to the child like this." Lu Boqi raised his eyebrows, put a little bit into his mouth, and tasted it carefully, showing an expression of endless aftertaste.

"Mrs. Yang, have you seen that frying pan?" Lu Boqi glanced at Yang Hong's daughter's eager eyes, laughed twice, and handed her the candy figurine in his hand, "Such an obedient sister, I really can't bear to put her on the table." Throw it in, I guess even if I throw her alive into the frying pan in front of your eyes, you won't blink. So I have to wrong Madam!"

The elite soldiers guarding the side immediately stepped forward knowingly, knocked Madam Yang unconscious with a stick, and dragged her out of the room.

The little girl was pulled aside by Lu Boqi, momentarily at a loss, and burst into tears.

Lu Boqi was not angry either, and took out a little sugar figurine from his sleeve, and coaxed her, "Little sister, you just need to tell uncle what your father does and who he hangs out with, and uncle will promise you that he will not Hurt your mother, and uncle will give you many, many sugar people. But if you cry again, uncle will throw your mother into the pot!"
