Chapter Fifty-Eight: Arrested and Imprisoned
In a moment, the crowd suddenly gave way to a road, and everyone looked at it with an inquiring eye, and Xi Mo also frowned and looked over there: I saw a few men riding horses and wearing official uniforms, coming towards her in a hurry, regardless of the safety of the people along the way, rampage one by one, until a road was found.

In the end, a sedan chair came slowly, the curtain of the sedan chair was lifted by the maid, and a fat-headed and big-eared man came down from it roundly, with a very disdainful expression on his face.
"Yonggui, have you caused me trouble again?"
The person who came was the county magistrate of Yongan County, Yucheng, and he posted it next to Wang Yonggui's ear to ask.
"Godfather, I really can't help it, I'm in some trouble, this woman has to dismantle my platform."
"Who is she?"
"The boss next door who eats Tongtian, I have observed, there is no backstage."
"Hey, officials and businessmen collude, what are you doing, why don't you say it to us all, is it unseemly."
Xi Mo was afraid that it would be detrimental to him if they continued to talk in a low voice, so he hurriedly sarcastically shouted.
"Dare to be a woman, dare to speak to the county magistrate like this!"
"Heh, this is the county order, no wonder I sympathize with Boss Wang, I remember that my red bean dumplings were sent to your old lady for a birthday, and then I suddenly withdrew my list for no reason and cooperated with Yu Tianxiang instead."
Xi Mo directly poked the matter out.
"You sharp-toothed Diao Min, your food is not as delicious as Yu Tianxiang's cooking, it's not normal for me as a guest officer not to want you!"
The county magistrate shouted loudly. In fact, what he said is not unreasonable, but if it involves other things, it is a little unsatisfactory:
"Yes, my food is not as good as Yu Tianxiang, I am willing to be exchanged, it's just that I see that you have a good relationship with Boss Wang, do you also know that his red bean condensation is stealing my recipe, and you sit idly by?"
"At the feet of the Son of Heaven, you Diao woman dare to insult the important ministers of the court on the street, take it down for me!"
The county magistrate said angrily, pointing fingers at the accompanying government office.
"You dare! I am..."
Xi Mo had no fear, took a step forward, and wanted to report to his home. suddenly thought of the seven chapters of the agreement with Gu Beijun, and he was not allowed to reveal his identity, so he had to swallow the words that came to his lips raw.
"What are you?"
The county order is a person who bullies the weak and is afraid of the hard, because Wang Yonggui said that Xi Mo did not have a backstage, he dared to be presumptuous, but seeing that Xi Mo had the confidence to speak like this, he did not dare to act rashly anymore.
"Although I am a helpless civilian, if you want to arrest me, you will also tell the evidence."
"Evidence? What I say is proof! ”
Knowing that Xi Mo was helpless, the county order became even more unscrupulous.
"Why arrest her, why arrest her!"
Below, the onlookers couldn't see the government bullying people, and raised their fists in protest loudly.
"It's against you!"
The county order shouted, and the officials next to him pulled out their swords one after another, and the people instantly died down, daring to be angry but not daring to speak, staring at the county order.
"Folks, it's okay, I want to see how I can do this county order today, you can testify, today, it was Yu Tianxiang who stole my secret recipe for eating through the sky, today, it was the county commander who shielded the real murderer and arrested me into the yamen, in the future, in the streets and alleys of Yucheng, everyone passed on the ugly thing of Yu Tianxiang by word of mouth, everyone knew that no one would come to his black shop to eat, and it was worth it for me to go to the yamen!"
Xi Mo is righteous and awe-inspiring. She is from modern times, and she has really never seen what the Yamen Mansion looks like, and she has never experienced any unjust, false and wrongful cases, she wants to see how dark the official mansion of the Gu Dynasty is.
"Take it away for me!"
The county magistrate was afraid that she would talk more and incite the emotions of the people, so he hurriedly asked someone to take Xi Mo away.
...
"Get out of the way!"
When Gu Beijun arrived at Yu Tianxiang with the phantom Leng Chen, many of the people had not dispersed, but there was already no shadow of Xi Mo.
"What about people."
He searched left and right anxiously, but did not see Xi Mo's shadow.
"Folks, just now you saw Boss Xi of Shitongtian?"
Gu Beijun asked.
"Boss Xi was taken away by the county order, Yu Tianxiang and the officials of the government protect each other, Boss Xi has no one to help, this world."
The people sighed helplessly, Gu Beijun's heart sank, his eyes glanced at Yu Tianxiang angrily, and then he hurriedly grabbed a horse and ran to the mansion.
"Haha, what a hard bone!"
"Phew! Dog officer! Beware of the old lady asking for your life! ”
"It's all like this, and you still don't admit your guilt, Boss Xi, holding on to it will only make your delicate body suffer even more."
"You're dreaming! I confessed my guilt, hiss~ I confessed my guilt, and your practices just now became justified! How could I let you, a dog, get away with it!"
In the lobby of the yamen, Xi Mo was tied to a bench, and there were several iron-faced officials standing next to him, standing there expressionless with a board in their hands. Xi Mo's head was covered with beads of sweat, but the expression in his eyes was still not a little compromised.
Just now, she accused Yu Tianxiang and the county magistrate of the crimes outside in righteous words, which ignited the emotions of the people, and the county magistrate was a little flustered, and hurriedly took Xi Mo to the government office and gave her ten boards, trying to force her to submit and confess by force, so that everyone would think that Xi Mo was talking crazy.
"Diao woman! You are trying to frame the important ministers of the court, but you still don't admit your guilt, be careful of the skin and flesh! ”
The county magistrate gritted his teeth and said.
"An important minister of the court? It's a shame that the court has corrupt officials like you! ”
Xi Mo scolded bitterly, so angry that the county commander's hand trembled, and threw another token under the hall:
"Call me! Beat her until she confesses! ”
"Bang!"
Only a loud bang was heard, and the wooden gate of the yamen was smashed open.
The county commander was frightened and immediately got up and motioned for the officials to take a look.
Before the officials could react, Gu Beijun ran to the lobby at a lightning speed, and his eyes suddenly saw Xi Mo lying on the longboard, and his already gloomy face was even darkened.
"Bei-kun."
When he saw Gu Beijun come in, the grievances in Xi Mo's heart could no longer be suppressed, and tears burst out of his eyes, not at all as stubborn as he did just now. Pear Blossom's tearful little face was terribly white, and her lips were also blue and purple, and Gu Beijun only felt as if he had been stabbed in his heart.
He walked to Xi Mo's side and wanted to hold her in his arms, but he didn't dare to move her body, seeing her state, she must have been hit by the board, so she couldn't move easily.
He squatted down, his head very close to Xi Mo's head, raised his hand in distress, gently stroked her cheek, and his brows were twisted together.
"Beijun, he, he beat me."
Xi Mo was out of breath crying, and her body was constantly trembling, so that Gu Beijun couldn't bear to look at it again.
"Well, I'm here."
Gu Beijun leaned over and kissed her crying red eyes, Xi Mo only felt a warmth in her heart, and she was inexplicably at ease.
