111. The higher the status, the greater the right to speak
Xiao Er seemed to feel strange that they didn't know Master Zeng: "Oh, it's the Lord Zeng who came to ask Miss Sima for medicine in the morning, he is a guest of the City Lord's Mansion, and he is very valued by the City Lord." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info He just reported to the City Lord's Mansion that he saw his family's fugitive slave coming to Xiao City, and asked the city lord to send someone to help him arrest his fugitive slave. ”
Xiao Er was very anxious, because, if Tang Ailian's gang were really fugitive slaves, as an inn that took in fugitive slaves, they would also be implicated: "Since you are fugitive slaves, why do you dare to come to the guest house? You can kill us." ”
Tang Ailian tried her best to calm herself: "Little second brother, I am sure to tell you, we are not fugitive slaves. In the morning, Mr. Zeng was exposed by me because he used fake medicine to harm people, so he came to take revenge on me. ”
Xiao Er looked at Tang Ailian, but he didn't believe it.
Seeing that Xiao Er still didn't believe it, Tang Ailian hurriedly said: "Think about it, if we are fugitive slaves, why don't we just say it when he sees us in the morning? It wasn't until we exposed his fake medicine conspiracy that he came to say that we were fugitive slaves, what is it not revenge?"
Xiao Er also calmed down when he heard Tang Ailian's words: Yes, it's really a fugitive slave, why didn't you bring it up when you met, but only said it after the conflict?
"However, if he dares to report to the City Lord's Mansion that you are fugitive slaves, I am afraid that he has some evidence to be fearless. Xiao Er said worriedly.
Tang Ailian wondered in her heart: This President Zeng, what confidence can he say that they are fugitives from his family?
Xiao Er also couldn't figure it out, and suddenly, he asked, "Do you have an identity spirit card?"
Tang Ailian frowned: "We are nomads, we just came out of the mountains, where did we get the identity spirit card?"
Xiao Er's face changed: "I'm afraid you will still be in trouble, no wonder that Master Zeng dared to report that you are a fugitive slave." Because even if you are a vagrant, you don't have an identity spirit card, if you are reported, unless you have evidence to prove that you are not a fugitive slave, you will be treated as a fugitive slave. ”
Tang Ailian and the others were dumbfounded, proving that they were vagrants? It was precisely because they didn't want to be restrained that they became vagrants, and the nomads didn't have identity spirit cards, so how could they prove that they were nomads and not fugitive slaves? If they registered their identity cards, they wouldn't be vagrants.
It's like saying to people, you have to prove that you are human, how do you prove it?
Xiao Er asked again: "Then, you can find friends and relatives and ask them to prove that you are not fugitives but vagrants." ”
Tang Ailian shook her head: A group of them are all from the earth, and they have been hiding in the mountains to cultivate in the past two years, where are their friends and relatives?
This is really a big loophole, I don't have the ability to settle the city lord, and it's not easy to be a homeless.
I'm afraid that this Zeng Guangxiong took advantage of this loophole to make them fugitives. Because, he understood that Tang Ailian, they all came from the earth like him, and there could be no background, since there was no background, there was no place to reason if they were arrested as fugitive slaves.
has really become a fugitive slave, and even his life is Zeng Guangxiong's, how can they go home?
Xiao Er lowered his voice and said to Tang Ailian: "I heard that Master Zeng once used such a means to turn several homeless people into his fugitive slaves. Even his first wife was first reported by him as a fugitive slave, and then he was forced to marry him, so you better find a way. ”
Tang Ailian and the others were shocked, it turned out that Zeng Guangxiong was not the first time to report a fugitive slave.
When Sima Lan heard this, she became anxious: "I don't want to be a fugitive slave, grandpa, I can't be captured by Zeng Guangxiong, I don't want to be his concubine." Let's get out of the way. Xiao Er, we live in your store and are blackmailed by that bad guy, your store has the responsibility to protect our safety, you have to take us away quickly. ”
Xiao Er was upset when he saw her noisy: "Our entire inn is surrounded, how can I help you escape?"
Professor Sima comforted her: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, we'll be fine, we won't be his anger, the little divine doctor will have a way." ”
Tang Ailian glanced at Sima Lan: Sure enough, she saved a big trouble. But this is not the time to get rid of her, she stuffed a spirit stone into the little second-hand: "Is there a way for you to let us prove that we are not fugitive slaves?"
When Xiao Er saw the spirit stone, he was overjoyed and said, "If you find someone with status in the city, let him prove for you that you are not a fugitive slave." ”
Tang Ailian and the others smiled bitterly: It was the first day they traveled to Xiaocheng, where could they meet anyone with status.
Tang Ailian and the others hadn't come up with any good way yet, over there, the captain of the guard of the City Lord's Mansion had already entered the inn under the greeting of the innkeeper, and came directly towards the small courtyard where Tang Ailian and the others lived.
Tang Ailian and the others couldn't think of a way for the time being, so they had to simply sit down.
When the captain of the city guard led people into the small courtyard of the inn, he saw Zhao Lu and the others sitting there surrounded by Tang Ailian, not moving like a mountain, but steadily suppressing the momentum of the city guard.
The momentum of the captain of the city guard was suppressed, and even the footsteps of the group involuntarily stopped. He suddenly felt a little angry in his heart, there was only a little child in front of him, what was wrong with him?
He took a deep breath and brewed enough momentum, and then stepped forward to introduce himself to Tang Ailian: "I am the captain of the city guard, someone reported that you harbored fugitive slaves here, and I am here to arrest fugitive slaves on the order of the city lord." ”
After that, she didn't wait for Tang Ailian's reply, and directly took out one portrait after another, comparing Zhao Lu and other eleven soldiers: "They are Lord Zeng's fugitive slaves, take them all." ”
As soon as those soldiers rushed forward, they were about to take down Zhao Lu and the others. Tang Ailian stepped forward and stopped: "Slow, they are all my people." Who said they were fugitives?"
The captain of the city guard, Wei Jun, was a man in his thirties, with a pair of very sharp eyes, and when he saw Tang Ailian come forward, he was not in a hurry, standing in front of Tang Ailian, holding his hands in front of his chest, and touching his beard with one hand: "You said they are your people? Do you have evidence?"
He heard that in the morning, it was this girl who scolded Master Zeng away.
"Then you said that they were fugitive slaves, do you have any evidence?" Tang Ailian asked rhetorically.
"There is no evidence, but there are witnesses. The captain of the guard looked at Tang Ailian with a smile: "Moreover, this witness is still a person with an identity in our Xiao City." ”
"Who? who can prove that my person is a fugitive slave?" Tang Ailian was a little angry.
"It's Lord Zeng. ”
"He is also a party himself, how can he prove it?" said Sima Lan angrily.
The captain of the guard chuckled: "Lord Zeng is the guest of our City Lord's Mansion, and his words naturally have weight, unless, you can find someone with more status than Lord Zeng to prove for you that those people are not fugitive slaves." This is our rule in Shaw City. The higher the status, the greater the right to speak. ”
Tang Ailian's crazy heart, this bullshit rule!
