The old man was very angry.
Mr. Li was stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly called out to Mr. Li: "You stay here!"
Mr. Li did not dare to disobey his father's order, so he had to grit his teeth and swallow his anger.
Zhou Ruiyuan walked to Du Wanchun and continued to say to Mr. Li: "Whether Mr. Li has anything to do with this matter, Liu Lanzhi has already said that it was Mr. Li who asked her to find a way to bring my wife to the mansion. From the beginning, he had the ambition to rob the woman! How dare you deny it now!"
Mr. Li was speechless for a while.
Zhou Ruiyuan continued, "If Magistrate Li cannot handle the case impartially, then we will appeal to Qingzhou Prefecture and let Prefect Zheng come to interrogate in person."
Prefect Zheng is famous for his integrity. If he really lets him do that, he will be beaten with a stick.
After hearing this, Magistrate Li frowned and thought hard. Finally, he slapped the table again and said, "How could I, a county magistrate, be partial to someone? Don't worry, I will definitely give justice to your Zhou family."
After that, he said to Master Li sternly, "Tell me the truth!"
Master Li gritted his teeth and refused to tell the truth even if he was beaten to death.
Li County Magistrate was so excited that he waved his hand at the yamen runners beside him and said, "If you don't tell the truth, I will torture you!"
Young Master Li suddenly looked up at him, "Dad, you are not really going to torture me!"
Li County Magistrate said seriously, "I am not your father in this court! Tell the truth quickly, or I will be tortured with a stick!"
Young Master Li was scared this time, and he knelt down and said, "Dad, I do have this idea, but I really didn't ask Liu Lanzhi to kidnap anyone!"
Zhou Ruiyuan snorted coldly and said, "It seems that Young Master Li admitted it himself."
Li County Magistrate had a dark face and ordered the yamen runners helplessly, "Drag Li Maosheng away and beat him with twenty boards as a punishment!"
"Yes, sir."
The yamen runners stepped forward and lifted up Young Master Li.
Young Master Li was so frightened that his legs went limp. He shouted at Magistrate Li, "Dad, I know I was wrong. Don't let them beat me, Dad!"
Soon, the screams of pain from Young Master Li and Liu Lanzhi could be heard in the courtyard of the yamen.
Twenty strokes of the cane were not a small number. They were beaten so hard that their buttocks were bruised and they couldn't even get off the ground.
Seeing that it was almost done, Du Wanchun took the Zhou family and left the yamen.
As soon as they left, Magistrate Li had someone write a divorce letter and handed it to Liu Lanzhi, and sent someone to pack her up and send her back to the Du family.
The Du family was also in a mess.
Hongxiang was pregnant and became the mistress of the Du family.
Liu stayed at the Du family and served tea and water to Hongxiang at home.
When she saw her daughter being sent back, she cried heartbreakingly.
The news spread quickly, and people from several nearby villages knew about it.
Du Wanchun's family was not in a hurry to leave Cheng'an County. They bought some daily necessities, such as oil and cloth, in a nearby shop.
Aunt Zhou counted the silver and prepared to buy Du Wanchun a better wooden comb.
She turned to Zhou Ruiyuan and called out, "Ruiyuan, do you see a rouge shop nearby?"
Zhou Ruiyuan looked up and pointed forward, "There is one over there."
Aunt Zhou whispered, "Your wife hasn't had a decent comb since she came in. Go buy her an agarwood one, and give her a surprise when you go back."
Zhou Ruiyuan nodded. In fact, without Aunt Zhou telling him, he had already prepared to buy it for Du Wanchun.
While Du Wanchun was buying oil, Zhou Ruiyuan secretly went to the rouge shop.
In addition to wooden combs, the rouge shop also had many different kinds of rouge.
After Zhou Ruiyuan bought the comb, he hesitated for a long time, and finally took out the only copper coins in his hand to buy a small box of rouge.
When he was about to go out with his rouge and comb, he ran into someone.
A tall man in a black gown, looking cold.
Zhou Ruiyuan was startled, lowered his head, and passed by him.
The man finally found Zhou Ruiyuan, and he turned around and chased after him, "Your Highness!"
