The shops and residents on both sides of the street had closed their doors, and it was dark all the way, but fortunately the sky was not completely dark, and I could still discern the majestic architectural style of the official office under the reminder of the housekeeper. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

It's just that the official office is also closed. I thought to myself, it wouldn't leave me without being a late "sinner."

The butler walked to the imposing gate, picked up the drumstick placed on the drum rack, and tapped it lightly.

For a long time, I didn't hear any noise inside.

The housekeeper looked at me and said, "Young lady, you should have retired by now, why don't we go back first?" He hesitated again: "Perhaps, things are still turning around." ”

I stood silently for a moment. I thought to myself, the matter has been decided, if it is delayed until tomorrow, it will be another life and death, it is better to end it sooner.

The butler was still standing there awkwardly. I walked over to the drum rack, picked up the drumstick, and banged on it.

The silent streets seemed to be frightened, and dogs barked in the deep alleys.

After a while, a crack opened in the door of the official office, and a catcher wearing a Pu knife poked his head out and said impatiently: "Now that the government is closed, something will come back tomorrow." So saying, he closed the door.

I stepped forward, leaned against the door, and said, "I'm here to surrender." ”

The headhunter glanced at me inexplicably and scolded, "Sick." ”

Thinking that such a thing seemed incomprehensible to him, I paused and looked at the butler.

The butler stepped forward and said, "Brother Guan, please wait a moment," and then took out a string of copper plates from his sleeve. The technique is skillful, and I can't help but feel a sense of "admiration".

I looked at it with "admiration", and the housekeeper said again: "Brother Guan has worked hard, I know that the county lord is resting in the official office today, and there is a case that is very urgent, please ask the big brother official to invite the county master out." ”

The catcher took the copper plate and threw down a sentence: "Wait here." With that, he closed the door again.

Just when I felt that there was no hope of "surrendering", the door opened, and a middle-aged man in an official uniform walked out, presumably the county master.

The steward bowed, and I bowed with it.

The county lord spoke: "Come in and say." ”

Candles were burning in the lobby of the official office, which made people a little thirsty. I stood in the middle of the lobby, with Steward Wang standing next to me, and next to me stood the headcatcher who had just opened the door for us. The county lord sat on the top of the lobby, looking a little tired.

There is no expected majestic momentum and earth-shaking voice of the sentence "might-martial-". There were no spectators crowded with officials and whispering discussions. The few people in the lobby, coupled with the gentle autumn rain outside, gave me a kind of desolation.

The county lord's question broke the silence: "Who is the informant?" ”

The housekeeper saluted and replied, "The little one is the informant." ”

This "small" voice makes me sigh and sigh. In fact, the housekeeper and the county lord are the same age, just because of their different identities, so the housekeeper will bend in front of him and call himself "small".

The county lord looked at me and frowned, "Are you the perpetrator?" ”

I let out an "um" and nodded.

He suddenly slapped the startled wood and scolded: "Even if you are a sinner, why don't you kneel?" ”

I ignored his words and said, "The sinner woman has attempted murder and has come to surrender to her guilt." After a pause, he asked, "How can such a crime be sentenced?" Then he put his cheeks on his cheeks and thought, "This is a death sentence, right?" Is it beheading? I wonder if we can discuss a different way of dying......"

A startling sound interrupted my thoughts, and the county lord said angrily: "Where is the sinner? What a bold man! How can you be presumptuous in the courts? ”

I looked at him inexplicably, is that also called "presumptuous"?

The housekeeper hurriedly said, "County official, can you ask her a few words?" ”

The county lord's hand waved impatiently and said, "Ask, hurry up." ”

The housekeeper saluted him, looked at me again, and said, "Young lady, San Langzi is not a hard-hearted person, although he sent me to send the young lady to the official office, but I feel a little unbearable. It's better for the young lady to go back to the house with the minions first, and then ......"

Before he could finish speaking, I interrupted, "Steward Wang, I understand your good intentions. But what will happen to me in the future? After all, someone doesn't want to leave me in the Blue Mansion, if I am still there, and it will affect others in the future, and if something really happens to my life, how will it end? Then he sighed and said, "Anyway, history says that I am destined to live a short life, maybe today is my fate." ”

After I sighed, I found that Steward Wang was looking at me in surprise. I was already very remorseful in my heart, and I shouldn't have lost my words.

Generally, people who know the heavenly machine can't live long.

I coughed and said, "What I just mean is that I have to be happy to know my destiny, and I will go wherever God's will sends me." Now that Providence has sent me to the official office, let the servants of the representative of Providence, the county magistrate, decide my fate. ”

The housekeeper stayed for a while, and Fang said, "Okay, then the slave will follow the young lady's wishes." Then he stated to the county lord: "Tell the county official, the people's wife Zhu, I want to ...... The attempt to murder her mother-in-law failed, and the little one sent her to the official office according to the order of the old lady and asked the adults to deal with it. ”

The county lord pondered for a while and said, "Murdering your relatives is a big crime. According to the law, but considering that the consequences caused by it are minor, and the attitude of admitting guilt is active," and then took out a piece of vermilion torture from a vermilion wooden box, and said, "Sentenced to two years in prison." ”

I was amazed, then disappointed. Let me be in prison for two years in this unfamiliar place, it is better to give me a good time, so that I can go back to modern times. So I said in a resolute tone, "The sinner wants only one death." ”

The county lord was stunned. Before the judgment was dropped, he slipped onto the table.

Then I said, "Please make the sinners of the county magistrates." ”

He came to his senses and said, "Why is the sinner woman bent on death, and what is the reason for this? ”

"Nope." I thought about it for a while, and then said, "The sinner woman knows that she is deeply sinful, and she has no face to live in the world. Prefectural magistrate, please do it. ”

He cleared his throat and said, "How can the criminal laws of a country be changed if you want to?" The official can only sentence you to two years in prison, and if you don't want to live, it's your own business, and it has nothing to do with the official. With that, he beckoned to the head catcher who was standing by and said, "Take her to prison and take her into custody." ”

I really didn't expect that the criminal law here was so strict, and it would become quite difficult to seek death. In a daze, the headcatcher came over and wanted to shackle me.

I suddenly interrupted, "Please wait. ”

The county lord's eyes swept to me and said, "What else is the matter?" ”

"Can the magistrate allow the sinner to write a letter and ask the housekeeper to bring it to the sinner's husband as a farewell?"
