Originally, Master Zhang wanted to use this case to drag Qin Zhihong down, but he didn't think about it, and he didn't know what Qin Zhihong's ability to pass through the sky was, and he could even let the capital directly send a message to supervise the case. The county magistrate softened that day, and personally went to the prison to greet Qin Zhihong, Qin Zhihong didn't expect Boss Wang to do it so neatly, and he didn't expect that Boss Wang is now a foreigner in the government and a foreigner, and he will dredge the joints, which will naturally work.

This night, the little list found Mr. Zhang, at this time Mr. Zhang was worried about the pipe, the little list entered the house in a sneer, Mr. Zhang asked him what was the matter, and the little list said:

"Master, the case will start tomorrow, and we will have to deal with it then."

Master Zhang couldn't help but say angrily: "It's not your bad idea, now the imperial court directly sends a telegram to urge, the county lord and I have a good relationship, and we are all soft, what can I do?" ”

Xiao Danzi smiled: "Master, there is something you don't know......

Master Zhang couldn't help but stand up and said, "What's the matter, tell me quickly." ”

Xiao Danzi said: "When Qin Zhihong was in the capital, he was very familiar with an officer of the Eight-Nation Alliance, which is nothing, but I was with him at the time, and when I saw the foreigner leaving, I gave him something, but I didn't see it clearly when it was too far away, it is estimated that there was some treasure hidden in the palace, which was obtained by this foreigner, and then given to Qin Zhihong, this kid." ”

Master Zhang hurriedly said, "Is this true? ”

Xiao Danzi hurriedly replied: "It's true! And he picked it up immediately, and never mentioned it again. By tomorrow, I will shake this matter out to him, the court also hates foreigners, and after the coalition troops withdrew from the capital, they have been chasing the lost treasures in the palace, this time he Qin Zhihong hit the muzzle of the gun by himself, since the court also pays attention to his case, then let the court clean up this kid for us. ”

Master Zhang was overjoyed, and couldn't help but say: "Little list, you do have a ghost idea, but I wondered, you told me that the foreigners were going to kill you at the beginning, and it was Qin Zhihong's wonderful hand to rejuvenate him, so he took it and saved your life, why are you revenge now?" ”

Xiao Danzi couldn't help but be a little angry, and said: "Master Zhang, you don't know, I was a buddy in the Chai family in Xujialou, but I didn't expect to be killed by the Boxers, I always felt that this Qin Zhihong was with the Boxers, but I couldn't find evidence from beginning to end, but he made me wander around and had nowhere to live, do you think I can bear this hatred?" ”

Master Zhang smiled and said: "Okay, then this time he won't be able to eat and walk around, but if he is willing to hand over the recipe for the Seven Spirits Flower Scattering, let's do something else, you can't harm me." ”

Xiao Danzi said: "This is natural, as long as he hands over the prescription, there will be no way to make a fortune, and naturally I will be comfortable." ”

The trial started early in the morning, Qin Zhihong saw the sunshine outside for the first time in this period of time, and he couldn't help but feel a little dazzling, but he thought that he would go home soon, and he would no longer be lost.

The officials shouted Tang Wei, and the county magistrate walked over the venue to ask about the case, and the old lady Zhang then told Qin Zhihong about colluding with foreigners and being with the Boxers. So the county magistrate asked Qin Zhihong again what he had to say. Qin Zhihong said:

"Master, if you want to say that I have been ringing around to practice medicine in the early years, I have never seen boxers, I am really talking nonsense with my eyes open, the villain has indeed seen a lot of boxers, when there was a big fuss in the past, when the foreigners attacked the capital, I also saw them attack the Xishiku Church and surround Dongjiaomin Lane, but it really has nothing to do with them!"

"Nonsense! Adults, don't listen to traitors messing around here......" Xiao Danzi immediately interrupted Qin Zhihong's words, and continued: "He Qin Zhihong and his wife, that Lian'er, went to Chai Jiawa together, and later because he was optimistic about the illness of ** milk, he was left in the village by Master Chai. In fact, they are to spy on the news of the Boxers, otherwise, Chai Jiawa will not be lightly attacked by the boxers, that place is easy to defend and difficult to attack, only the gate of the east of the village, usually it is also heavily guarded, unless there is a traitor, otherwise the boxers come to fight and ask for hardship. ”

Qin Zhihong then retorted: "This is true, but at that time, I had been driven out of Chai Jiawa by the eldest son of the Chai family, and this is something that the Chai family knows about. ”

Xiao Danzi smiled coldly: "You can deceive others, can you still deceive me?" I was working for the Chai family at the time, and when the Boxers came in, they knocked me unconscious, and when I woke up, I saw you in the hall, with the Boxers, and I was afraid of being killed by the boxers, so I had to run out. ”

Qin Zhihong didn't expect Xiao Danzi to wake up quickly after being knocked unconscious, so he was in a hurry and said:

"Master, I did lead the Boxers into the Chai Mansion back then, but you don't know that the son of the Chai family poisoned the Chai master to death in order to occupy the concubine of the Chai master, and drove his concubine and his ten-year-old brother out of the house. The villain once served as the teacher of Chai Wanming, the second son of Master Chai, whether it is righteous or dead-hearted, Chai Wanjun is a great crime for me, so I am willing to lead the way for the Boxers to get rid of this brute. At that time, I was also kicked out, so I met the grandmother and mother and son of the Chai family on the road, so I placed the two in a nearby hotel, and returned to Chai Jiawa to find Lian'er, oh, that is, the villain's insider. After the Boxers attacked, and then gathered the whole village under the fire-raising platform in the village, at that time, the fist head Zhu Honglan announced that he was the old friend of Master Chai, and got a secret letter from Master Chai to save him, but it was still a step too late, Master Chai had been killed by the wolf-hearted eldest son Chai Wanjun, this Chai family's grandmother and his son Chai Wanming can testify. ”

The county magistrate saw that the two were fighting each other, so he said: "Qin Zhihong, what you said, the official also knows it, and sent someone to the Changqing County Ya to ask for help to verify, a question, it is true, if you are a boxer, the evidence is indeed insufficient, but if you are not, how can you prove it?" ”

Qin Zhihong secretly wondered, how to prove that he is not a boxer? He couldn't think of it, so he said: "Master, this, the villain rings the bell everywhere to practice medicine, and there are many people in contact, this really can't be explained clearly, but master, you can't say that the villain is a boxer just because the villain has had dealings with the Boxers, and the villain has also treated many people in the government, in the final analysis, he is just a Lang Zhong who treats diseases and saves people!" ”

The county magistrate also stroked his beard and nodded, and he had already received a telegram, knowing that he could not cure Qin Zhihong's crimes, so he was just putting on a show, and the people who looked at him from the outside felt that he was handling the case impartially and without partiality. So the county magistrate said:

"You're right, then ......"

Master Zhang stood aside and didn't speak, but at this time he kept giving Xiao Danzi a look, and Xiao Danzi immediately understood, so he said:

"There's one more thing about the old man and the villain."

The county magistrate was a little impatient, and said: "You villain, you falsely accuse others, and dare to quibble, I want to see what you have to say, if you still make something out of nothing, be careful that I will punish you!" ”

Xiao Danzi was a little weak-hearted, but he still said slightly: "Master, is it a boxer for the time being, when I was in Beijing, the villain saw him have a close relationship with a foreign soldier, and when the foreigner left, he gave him a treasure, which is probably an object taken away by a foreigner in the palace, Qin Zhihong, you won't admit this." ”

Qin Zhihong couldn't help but be shocked, thinking to himself, how could Xiao Danzi see that he had lost weight The volume of the Siku Quanshu given by Bud, he couldn't help but look back at Lian'er, Lian'er also shook her head, signaling that she definitely didn't tell anyone about it. Qin Zhihong was anxious and said:

"Master, the foreign officer did give the villain a thing as a gift, how about the villain send my wife back to fetch it for you?"

The county master nodded in agreement, and Qin Zhihong turned around and asked Ziyi outside the hall how to behave, and after a while, Ziyi brought a small box over.

At this time, it was already more than eight o'clock in the morning, and there were more and more people watching the excitement, and everyone and Master Zhang and Xiao Danzi were all wide-eyed, wanting to see what was in this small box.

Qin Zhihong uncovered the silk wrapped outside three layers of the outside, and then slowly opened the box, everyone straightened their necks and looked inside, and when the lid was fully opened, everyone could see clearly, it was a revolver!

At this time, the county master who reacted the most was the county master, and I saw him stand up on the ground, hurriedly hide behind the pillar next to the case, and shouted:

"Bold Qin Zhihong! I dared to carry a weapon into the public court, I wanted to assassinate the official, and if I didn't come, I would escort him to me! ”

In fact, the county magistrate went to the prison last night and personally asked the jailer to remove Qin Zhihong's shackles as a gesture of friendship, but this time his actions were really very different from before.

Qin Zhihong was stunned and immediately understood the reason, it turned out that at this time, the revolutionary party revolted everywhere, assassinated the imperial court officials, Mo said that he was assassinated with a pistol, and even in the public, a few people stopped the sedan chair with a rifle is a bullet, or used explosives to blow up so that even no one could be found, no wonder the county magistrate was so palpitating. Qin Zhihong hurriedly apologized:

"Master, the villain deserves to die, it's really a sin, this gun has no bullets, he picked up the gun, at this time everyone was shocked, although the Qing soldiers have now been issued guns, but the officials who passed through the hall still held a wooden stick in their hands, and the pestle was on the side, they were afraid that Qin Zhihong would point the gun at him.

And Qin Zhihong did not point to others, but to his own head, and pulled the trigger on the way, only to hear a snap, the firing pin hit the chamber of the gun, and there was no sound of misfire, and everyone realized that there was really no bullet in the gun.

So the county magistrate returned to his seat, and Qin Zhihong said: "Master, this gun was given to the villain by the foreigner Bud for self-defense." ”

The county master was silent, as if he hadn't recovered from the shock just now, or because he was too faceless just now, so he didn't know what to do. So Qin Zhihong continued:

"The villain is just a Langzhong, where you will get this kind of thing, even if you take the silver, you don't go out to change it, this gun is the one that Bard gave to the villain at that time, and later the villain learned from the foreigner that this gun is the pistol of Nie Shicheng, the commander of the military guard, after General Nie was martyred, the gun was captured by the foreigners, so the villain has not dared to throw it away casually, so he put it in this box and wiped it regularly to show his respect for this hero."

Saying that, Qin Zhihong couldn't help but be fascinated, as if he had returned to the days when he fought against the coalition forces with Nie Shicheng in the capital.

Everyone also seemed to be infected, and suddenly there was silence inside and outside the hall. After a while, the county lord coughed a few times, and everyone woke up, and the county lord said:

"I didn't expect Qin Zhihong to be a loyal and patriotic person, since this is the case, the official will know everything, Qin Zhihong, you are not guilty of this case, the official now sentences you not guilty, you must work hard when you go back, don't let down General Nie's spirit in the sky."

The people outside the hall cheered vigorously, Lian'er and Ziyi were also smiling, and the county master continued:

"As for Shan Wanzhao, because of his private thoughts, he dared to falsely accuse others, and almost made this official almost become a sinner through the ages, he wants to give me a heavy punishment, give me a cane and twenty strokes, as a warning, if you dare to act mischiefly and frame Zhongliang in the future, you will not be spared and retreat!"
