Chapter 130: Fighting Back
Shen Wei was depressed. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Wei Wenwen lifted the matter of killing people in the gambling house high, and then gently put it down. Just ordered the gambling house to compensate the family of the deceased for a coveted sum of silver, and gave Tang Quancane thirty dollars, and the case was closed.
Shen Wei stood aside, looking at Tang Quan's bloody buttocks that had been beaten, and knew that the injury was not serious at all. Seeing too much cane punishment, Shen Wei knew that the more the skin and flesh were opened, the more superficial the injury. Only the kind of stick that goes down and can't see obvious scars is really broken. Every qualified officer has such basic skills.
Wei Wenwen said that the public was not to be blamed, and at that time, a group of people swarmed up, and every punch and kick was a factor that contributed to the death, and it was impossible to arrest everyone and punish them with capital punishment.
Therefore, only gambling houses can be punished.
It is said that the gambling house operates legally, and it is considered the fault party to pay thousands of dollars in the gambling house, but the gambling house has no right to punish it privately. Even if the crowd was excited, the gambling house should suppress everyone's emotions and hand it over to the government for disposal. These are the words of the Wei scriptures in the public court.
This sounds very reasonable at first glance, but Shen Wei heard that the avoidance was light, Wei Wenwen put all the responsibility for killing people on the gamblers, and the gambling house was at most poorly supervised.
If Wei Wen only says that people die in the gambling house, the gambling house should be responsible, which is another ending.
It's a pity that there is no if, Shen Wei suddenly realized Wei Wenwen's position in the incident, and he remembered a very important thing that he ignored, he didn't know that Wei Wenwen was a vested interest in the gambling house.
He ignored more than one thing, Master Zhu Houcai just took away a dry share from the gambling house last night.
Wei Wenwen's punishment is still very exquisite, and the rich silver can be called a lot of silver, which can stop the mouths of the deceased's families, so that they will not make trouble again, and the people will not be prosecuted. Although human lives are at stake, how many people die unexpectedly every year in Yanggu County? Naturally, the imperial court will not check them one by one. And a cane directly beat Tang Quan with only half a life, which can block the mouth of the onlookers. In addition, now that Wei Wenwen has more and more control over the county government, there is no problem with all aspects of such a punishment.
suffered setbacks one after another, and Shen Wei had to be depressed.
And above the court, Geng Anxin, who was holding a burning stick and shouting mighty, was apprehensive for a while, first the God of Wealth Medical Hall, and now it is a gambling house, this is no coincidence, someone has made a move against Chen Xiao.
There was a reason to make a move on Chen Xiao, Geng Fang's first thought was Shen Wei, but as a confidant, Shen Wei did not tell him about it. That's why Geng Fang is nervous.
Outside the county office, Tang Quan was carried onto the stretcher he had prepared earlier, and Tang Shuang looked at the blood stains on his body, his eyes were red.
Seeing her like this, Tang Quan bared his teeth and said: "Sister, it's okay, it looks scary but it doesn't hurt at all, I guess after a few days of rest, I can run and jump again." I don't believe you asked Brother Wu. ”
Looking at Tang Shuang's gaze, Chen Xiao nodded lightly, "It's all skin injuries, and they don't hurt their muscles and bones." Go back to the hospital to get some medicine, don't touch the water these days, and the wound will heal in about three days. ”
With Chen Xiao's words, Tang Shuang was relieved a lot.
"I'm tired." Chen Xiao looked at Tang Quan on the stretcher and said. Of course, there was no serious stretcher in this era, and it was made temporarily by dismantling the door panel.
Seeing this object, Shen Wei's eyes froze, which showed that Chen Xiao had already known about the punishment in the court, and he didn't care about letting him know. Shen Wei wasn't sure if this was just his guess or if it was the truth.
He glanced at Chen Xiao, but fortunately, Chen Xiao was talking to Tang Quan without looking at him, and Shen Wei breathed a sigh of relief.
"Where is Brother Wu, now I am in charge of the gambling house, and if something like this happens, thank God if you don't blame me, how dare you say anything about being affected." Tang Quan endured the pain and said this.
As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Shuang looked at him with a surprised expression, she was very shocked that the younger brother who used to be lazy would talk and do things properly like he said today. There were some surprises, but more than that, there was relief.
Chen Xiao nodded and didn't say anything more.
This time, Geng Fang didn't shy away from Chen Xiao anymore, and after leaving the hall, he directly found the head to leave the K County Ya, and went to the God of Wealth Medical Center with a familiar car.
Tang Quan was injured, and the God of Wealth Medical Center was closed today.
"Da Lang, I think Shen Zhusi has begun to doubt me." In the medical hall, Chen Xiao was dressing Tang Quan, and Geng Fang sat on the side and said. Tang Quan and Geng Fang are both Chen Xiao's people at the moment, of course, there is no need to scruple and hide anything.
The gambling house business was bought by Geng Fang from Ximen's widow, and was not sold to Chen Xiao like a pharmacy and a restaurant, but was held in his hand for a period of time and then transferred to Tang's full name, these are all private transactions between the three of them, and others do not know. So in fact, even if Wei Wenwen relented in this matter, it would not involve Chen Xiao.
The reason why Geng Fang was in a hurry to come over to show his attitude was that he was worried that Chen Xiao had realized that Shen Wei had done the matter, and he didn't say anything, thinking that he had rejoined Shen Wei. In other words, Geng Fang would rather be an enemy of Shen Wei, but he would never stand on the opposite side of Chen Xiao again, although two years have passed since the last incident, he still has nightmares from time to time.
Chen Xiao didn't withdraw his gaze from Tang Quan's wounds, and said lightly: "He doesn't just suspect you, the affairs of the medical hall and the gambling house are all done by him." He's clearly starting to get his hands dirty. ”
Geng Fang's heart was shocked when he heard these words, but fortunately he took the initiative to say it before, "Then what are we going to do next?" ”
"What do you think is the most troublesome thing to deal with him?" Chen Xiao asked without answering.
Geng Fang thought about it seriously and hesitated: "Is it his identity as a priest?" ”
"It's easy to talk to smart people, unlike the other two... Forget it, don't mention them, bad luck. Then let him not be able to do this. ”
The other two?
Geng Fang's first thought was Ximen Qing and Cao Dayou, and he was suddenly shocked into a cold sweat, he didn't think that Chen Xiao was saying it casually, the other party was reminding and warning him.
"What is Da Lang going to do?" Geng Fang asked cautiously.
Chen Xiao shook his hand, "It's not how I want to do it, it's how you want to do it." You've known him for so long, don't you know what he's done to break the law? ”
"This..."Geng Fang's face turned pale with fright, Chen Xiao actually planned to let him testify against Shen Wei in the court, with his original identity as Shen Zhisi's confidant, and what he said was the truth, it was almost a sure thing to take down Shen Wei.
It's a good trick to draw salary.
"But once I say it, I..."
"Since you voluntarily surrendered, the adults should be lenient with you as appropriate."
Geng Fang was still hesitating.
"Why did you choose to enter the Yamen in the first place?" Chen Xiao asked.
"Earn money."
"When the matter is over, wouldn't it be nice to be a rich man at leisure?" Chen Xiao said with a smile.
Geng Fang didn't have a choice at all, but Chen Xiao still gave him good conditions, first, he would not be convicted, and second, he could get a large sum of silver.
