Gu Zhixing soon arrived at the door of the county order's house, but because he still had Ma Haosheng in the car, he didn't go in immediately, but just asked Qinglan to report and ask the county order to go to the yamen to deal with this matter now.

The person who reported it went for a long time, but after coming back, he respectfully asked Gu Zhixing: "Lord Wang, my lord invites you to go to the house to sit down first, and some things don't have to go to the yamen to solve them." ”

Although the attitude sounded respectful, it was enough to see that they didn't come out to greet Gu Zhixing by virtue of the county order, and they didn't have much respect for Gu Zhixing at all.

Gu Zhixing and Qinglan exchanged a look, and they both knew that the identity of the person in the carriage was indeed unusual, which made the county magistrate have some concerns, and wanted to solve it privately, and did not want to go to court.

Gu Zhixing got out of the carriage first, raised his eyes and glanced coldly at the plaque in front of the county order, and said coldly: "Lead the way ahead." ”

He wanted to see what kind of identity this person was, which made the county magistrate of Songyan County so scruples.

Qinglan pressed people to follow behind Gu Zhixing, and the group walked through the courtyard for a long time before they reached the main hall of the county order, but the county order had not yet arrived.

When the tea came, I heard the voice of the county commander behind me: "Oh, I don't know that the regent is here today, it's really a long way to come, you said that I was also busy with official business during this time, and I didn't have time to meet the prince, but let the prince come to the door, it's really lazy." ”

The tone was the same as that of the subordinate who had just led the way at the door, although it sounded respectful, but it was full of perfunctory, but it was just superficial.

Gu Zhixing didn't want to waste time with this kind of person, he looked at the kneeling person on the ground with a calm face, and said indifferently: "The county order doesn't have to be polite, this king came today to ask the county order, in Songyan County, if you rob a woman on the street and kill someone, according to your rules here, how to deal with it?" ”

These words are full of irony, the entire Western Sage should be under the jurisdiction of the Western Sage, and act according to the law of the Western Sage, but he deliberately asked what to do with the law of the county order.

How could the county order not understand the deep meaning behind this, he was a little nervous, his eyebrows frowned, he stared at the kneeling person on the ground, and glanced at it fiercely.

Unexpectedly, Ma Haosheng, who was gagged, became excited, screaming non-stop, and he didn't know what he was talking about.

The county commander bowed his hand and said in fear: "Lord Wang, the child is young and ignorant, it was my education that made him make such a big mistake, but for the sake of his first time, I also hope that the prince will open up and raise his noble hand, the old man has such a son at an age, if he has three long and two short, the old man ...... It's not like it's going to be cut off! ”

His face was sad, and his lofty and proud attitude just now had been subdued a lot, but he could still see that this caution was just for a short period of flattery, and he was not sincere.

Gu Zhixing and Qinglan exchanged a look with each other, and they both saw surprise in each other's eyes.

After being stunned for a few seconds, Gu Zhixing made a voice and asked suspiciously, "This is your son?" ”

"It's a child who doesn't make it!" The county magistrate hunched over and whispered back.

Gu Zhixing's face suddenly became as subtle and wonderful, he was never one who would save face, and he had no scruples when he spoke at this moment, and mocked: "No wonder you dare to act so boldly, it turns out that there is a county order behind your back." ”

Thinking about it this way, Ma Haosheng was so domineering on the street just now, and he was so skilled in reversing black and white, I am afraid that he has long been used to it.

The county commander pulled the corners of his mouth without smiling, as if he couldn't understand the other party's teasing, and said slowly: "Let the prince laugh, it's me who can't discipline me, and I will definitely discipline it well in the future." ”

Gu Zhixing ignored his promise, just raised his eyebrows and forgot about the county order, and asked, "You just said that this kind of thing is the first time he has committed it?" ”

This kind of ability to open his eyes and tell nonsense is probably also available in the county order.

He thought that Gu Zhixing had just arrived, and it was impossible to understand the past, and those things had been well covered up by him, so he had no scruples when he lied at the moment, and said calmly: "Yes, although Xiao'er is stubborn, he has never asked for anyone's life, and there is some misunderstanding here." ”

Qinglan couldn't listen to it, and fought back angrily: "Misunderstanding? What happened on the street just now was what I saw with my own eyes, how could it be a misunderstanding, and I think Ling Gongzi is so skilled, it doesn't look like the first time he committed it, you cover everyone and cover up in front of the prince, are we so fooled? ”

Gu Zhixing didn't speak, but Qinglan's words at this moment were his attitude.

The county commander couldn't say anything, his face finally cracked a little, and he was not so calm, so he held on and said slowly: "Lord Wang, I don't dare to fool you, it's the first time to make a human life, Xiao'er is still young, how can he murder someone's life, now, maybe he is scared." ”

His words are so ridiculous, it's like he hurt others, but he still thinks that others are deliberately trying to scare him, it's disgusting to the extreme.

Gu Zhixing's face was already ugly, and there was a cold disgust between his eyebrows, and there was a bit of murderous aura faintly popping up. Second Chinese Network

The county magistrate may have also felt it, restrained his expression, and said slowly: "Lord Wang, we will definitely bury that girl well and compensate to ensure that her family has no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life, do you think this is okay?" ”

"Do you think it's okay?" Gu Zhixing didn't say anything, just looked at the county order coldly.

The county order was uncomfortable by him, and reflexively trembled, the skin on his body tightened, and hesitated: "Then what does the prince think is feasible?" ”

"Murder pays for life, the simplest truth." Gu Zhixing retracted his gaze, and his tone was calm and calm, like a bystander completely out of the way.

But the county magistrate couldn't calm down, not only that, but his legs also weakened, and he almost stumbled and fell.

His face was pale, and seeing Gu Zhixing's indifferent expression and blunt tone, he knew that the other party was definitely not joking with him, and his heartbeat was chaotic for a while.

"Lord Wang!" The county commander called out sadly, knelt straight in front of Gu Zhixing, and pleaded in fear, "I'm just such a son, if you kill him, how will I live in the future, Lord Wang, put forward a condition, as long as you keep Xiao'er from dying, whatever you want, I will give it to you!" ”

The incident happened suddenly, and the county order didn't know how to deal with it, so it was completely out of proportion.

Gu Zhixing's eyes sank, as if he was seriously considering the words of the county order, and after a while, he said coldly again: "It's not impossible to keep him from dying, that arm touched someone else's girl, so he chopped off that arm, and when you finish this, let's talk about the conditions." ”

To put it plainly enough, Ma Haosheng's one-day arm is not even a condition for exchanging his life.

For a while, not to mention that the county order was frightened and turned white, but Ma Haosheng, who had been arrogant and domineering, and didn't take this matter to heart, was also anxious.

But he couldn't open his mouth, he couldn't speak, he could only be anxious and depressed, the sweat on his forehead was forced out, his hands were tied behind his back, and he moved around on the ground restlessly, and the meaning of asking for help was too obvious.

Now, the county commander turned his head to look at Ma Haosheng, which made him feel that his father had listened to the other party's words, wanted his arm, bit the thing in his mouth, shook his head desperately, and was so flustered that he had lost his previous pride.

The county magistrate naturally wouldn't abolish his son's arm so easily, so he begged stubbornly: "Lord, the child is still young, how will he live after he abolishes his arm?" Lord Wang, you will be gracious and let him go this time, I promise that he will never dare again in the future. ”

Gu Zhixing sneered and scolded coldly: "Your son is young, isn't the girl from other people's family young?" So a living life, a girl in the flower season, was humiliated to death by your son on the street, you cherish your only precious son, isn't someone else's daughter a baby? Or in your eyes, do you think it's just a cheap life, a rotten person? ”

"No, no, I don't dare to think so." The county order quickly promised, "Lord, we will definitely do our best to make up for that family, and seek forgiveness, the prince will leave the child with a whole body, what do you want us to do, we will do it, and we will never shirk." ”

"Really?" Gu Zhixing looked at him deeply.

Suddenly got Gu Zhixing's response, and the county order didn't react a little, but he still reflexively promised: "Of course it's true, as long as the prince speaks, it will definitely be done on the sword mountain and the sea of fire, just ask the prince not to pursue it again." ”

Gu Zhixing came to the county order this time, originally wanting the county order to spit out something, and temporarily alleviate the situation of the victims.

Right now, it's a great opportunity.

After thinking for a while, Gu Zhixing still compromised, and said slowly: "It's not impossible for me to let him go, it just so happens that I do want to ask the county order for help right now, whether you can protect your son from the whole body depends on the sincerity of the county order." ”

"Lord Wang, please speak." The county commander was overjoyed, and he breathed a sigh of relief, and his expression became relaxed.

But he couldn't help but be happy too early, because the next conditions that Gu Zhixing came out of made him unable to laugh anymore.

Gu Zhixing's tone was steady, and he said slowly: "It's very simple, as long as the county order is willing to spread good karma, open the door and make porridge, so that the victims in the city can have a chance to eat, and the towns and villages outside Songyan County can't be forgotten, they need the county order to open the granary, distribute the grain, and give the people a little silver tael, buy them for the next period of time, and also buy your son's life." ”

The more he continued, the county commander's face became more and pale, and finally glanced at Gu Zhixing in embarrassment, and said hesitantly: "Lord Wang, this is ...... It's a bit too harsh. ”

It's not that he can't do it, but just like Song Yi said before, let them spit out the money they ate, it would really be more difficult than taking their lives.

"What, don't want to?" Gu Zhixing raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, his face and tone were so calm that he couldn't tell the joy and anger.

But this is the most terrible thing.
