Chapter 54: Leave a Hand

Seeing Ma Yun's question, Shen Tu didn't think about it, and said directly: "Of course, all of them are escorted back to Jiangling, this is 100,000 taels of silver, Lord Wang, even if you go to Changsha City and meet the King of Chu, you may not be able to get so many taels of silver." ”

This is the truth, the king of Chu is extravagant, it depends on who he is right for, for the clan, the king of Chu is indeed extraordinary, often holding banquets, taking Ma's children on outings and hunting, etc.; It's a little worse for hundreds of officials, and they don't invite them to dinner much, but they often pull a few officials with outstanding literary talents, chant poems, pretend to be literati, and pretend to be big-tailed wolves. For the people, they don't care much about their life and death at all. In terms of the people, Ma Xifan is not as good as his brother Ma Xisheng, who likes to eat chicken, not to mention, compared with Ma Yin, the king of Wumu.

Qiao Niang next to her also whispered: "This account book, it's better to get it to Nanping with Yinliang, we will grab their handles, hehe, they will not be honest and obedient in the future." ”

Ma Yun's eyes lit up, he looked at Qiao Niang, and said in his heart: I have been with Zhao Pu for a long time, and I have actually learned to be smart, which is almost the same as I thought.

It was Zhao Ziying, frowning: "Then how can this case be concluded?" ”

Ma Yun smiled slightly, and already had an idea: "Of course, the case will be tried next." Since the fifth uncle asked Zhou Tingzhi to do this kind of thing, then Zhou Tingzhi should not talk nonsense. I tried it casually and gave him to him. As he spoke, he made a downward cutting gesture with his hands.

Jing Niang exclaimed: "Wouldn't this be too cruel." ”

Ma Yun sneered: "He is innocent of death!" Greedy for so much silver, enough to kill him ten times. ”

In the afternoon, the sky was actually raining, and the autumn rain was bitter and cool.

Sitting in the lobby, Ma Yun patted the hall in surprise and asked, "Zhou Tingxue, where did you recruit you, and when did you start exchanging the fake for the real and filling your pockets." ”

Ma Yun is extremely efficient, and since he decided to try it, he immediately ordered someone to invite officials from Wangcheng County and other counties to accompany him to question the case, so that he could be a witness.

Zhou Tingyu's upper and lower lips were already swollen like two sausages, Xu had already expected his fate, Zhou Tingzhi swept away his previous decadent appearance, with a rebellious face, he squinted at Ma Yun, and sneered slightly: "Fifth prince, the lower officials don't understand this." ”

Zhou Tingxu's mouth was injured, this was a little vague, Ma Yun carefully identified it, and then said with a righteous face: "You don't understand." Li Ergou, show him the lead-filled silver gun seized from the Foundry Bureau. ”

Then I saw Li Ergou, took a broken silver gun, and put it respectfully in the lobby, Ma Yun asked: "Zhou Tingxue, look at this silver gun, is it full of real silver." ”

Zhou Tingzhi didn't even look at it, and said directly: "This is naturally not, but the fifth prince, since it is said that the lower official is greedy for 300,000 taels of silver, then may I ask the prince, has this greedy silver ever been found?" ”

Ma Yun's face sank, and he patted the wood and said, "Then I want to ask you!" ”

"Haha, Fifth Prince, of course I know where this silver two goes, but I'm afraid that you won't dare to listen to the Fifth Prince."

Zhou Tingzhi was so strong at the end of his death, but Ma Yun was inexplicably surprised, Fifth Uncle, you shouldn't even catch this kid's sore feet at all. Ma Yun looked at both sides of the lobby again, and the county officials he invited to observe couldn't help but be ruthless, gritted his teeth, and said gloomily: "You say! Listen! ”

"I sent this silver to Changsha... As he spoke, he looked at Ma Yun proudly.

Ma Yun's face sank like water, and his heart flickered to his throat, and he was ready to give Li Ergou a look, if Zhou Tingzhi was really desperate and talked nonsense in court, Ma Yun could only treat him on the spot for the crime of indiscriminate climbing and biting, and then announced the crime, immediately executed, and sold it to Ma Xiguang.

"It was sent to Changsha and I spent it."

Ma Yun breathed a sigh of relief, stared at Zhou Tingzhi viciously, and asked, "Then are you guilty?" ”

"Know, the lower official is guilty! However, Xia Guan has a question, hasn't the fifth prince always paid attention to literati? Why are the lower officials' front teeth missing? Speaking of Zhou Tingxue, he also grinned at the county Cheng and the others, revealing seven or eight missing teeth.

Ma Yun was suffocated, on his way south, he passed by Miluo and other county seats, and everyone praised the readers, and when they were happy, they also invited them to drink and chat. I didn't expect to be exposed by this person in Wangcheng County.

"Hmph, you've read all your books in the belly of a dog, corruption and bribery are commonplace, are you still a saint's child? Less nonsense, since you admit it, sign it. ”

"Xiaguan has another question, my Dachu is not in circulation of silver, may I ask the fifth prince, how did Xiaguan spend these 300,000 taels of silver in Changsha?"

I didn't expect Zhou Tingzhi to be so difficult, Ma Yun's face was a little ugly at the time, and he couldn't help but continue to ask in front of the county magistrate, so he sneered: "It seems that you don't say it, Li Ergou, call me until he says it." ”

Li Ergou had already been impatient to hear it, and when he pressed Zhou Tingxue, he actually took the stick himself, and "popped" to fight, and Zhou Tingxue's screams were endless.

In the interval between screams, Zhou Tingyu shouted with all his might: "This is the five princes of Dachu, there is no evidence, they are beaten into tricks, they are lowered, and they are wronged!" ”

Ma Yun was so angry by this person that he was going to die, this matter has been exposed, he readily admitted it, and naturally he will definitely die; But he didn't admit it, the matter was too big, and it might be his whole family who died. What does Zhou Tingzhi mean when he suddenly does such a move? Bending into a trick? There's physical evidence here.

Thinking of this, Ma Yun said angrily: "Give me a ruthless one, and if you have physical evidence again, give me a confession." ”

"Bang Bang Bang" goes on like this. After a while, Zhou Tingxu didn't even have the strength to scream, his eyes were pulled, and he looked like he was about to faint, even Ma Yun was secretly a little unbearable in his heart, Ma Yun had killed people, but it was in Bianjing, if you don't kill him, he will kill you, but he has never beaten people like this. Li Ergou was full of energy, and the "pop" board after board went down, and Zhou Tingzhi saw that there was less air in and more air out.

The county magistrate on the side has always been frightened since he was invited by Ma Yun, he peeked at Ma Yun with a gloomy face, these five princes are going to beat Zhou Tingzhi to death. I am afraid that there are a lot of cats behind this ink corruption case, he is panicking, I don't know whether to persuade Ma Yun, so as not to kill Zhou Tingxu, in case Changsha is investigated, Ma Yun is naturally not afraid, but he will be moldy.

Just as he was about to speak, Ma Yun suddenly said: "Stop, let's try here today." Keep an eye on him, and try it again tomorrow. ”

Seeing that it was already halftime, the county Cheng and others hurriedly came over to compliment Ma Yun, what kind of words such as the world Qingtian, Ma Yun also comforted them with kind words. In the end, the county Cheng also had one more sentence: "Fifth prince, this week's court is extremely evil, but if you don't admit it, it is better to bring the witnesses and confront them in court, isn't it, Zhou Ting's defense is irrefutable, and the case can be closed." ”

The county is afraid that tomorrow Ma Yun will continue to fight like this, and if he makes a good fight, he will not be able to close the case. So he proposed with a shudder.

If you confront each other twice, if you confront each other twice, this case will be even more difficult to adjudicate, and maybe something new will come out. At that moment, Ma Yun smiled and said: "County Cheng, why didn't you remind Xiao Wang earlier, otherwise Xiao Wang would not have beaten Zhou Tingxue so much." This Zhou Tingzhi is also true, don't say it when you should say it, and talk nonsense when you shouldn't say it. Hit him, but also to give him a wake-up call. ”

Ma Yun had something to say, the county Cheng shrank his head, understood what he meant, and didn't dare to talk nonsense at the moment, so he resigned and withdrew.

Fifth uncle, I've been very busy. Ma Yun thought secretly in his heart. But this fifth uncle actually swallowed so much silver, what is he going to do? He is the left general of Tiance Mansion, the half-brother of the king of Chu, if he uses this money to buy people's hearts, it will not be easy to do.

Ma Yun's eyes rolled, and he suddenly thought of a novel in which Emperor Yongzheng said such a sentence: Is this person a witness? Only being alive is proof. Do you want to keep a hand?
