Chapter 70: Case Closed
He Jingjing, who was standing on the side, looked at Zhong Liang's smug face and was helpless. After all, there is really no evidence to directly prove that Zhong Liang was involved in this matter. In a few words, the old lady put all the responsibility for this matter on Jia Renyi and Niu Dahu, and He Jingjing couldn't say anything even if she wanted to argue.
The county magistrate looked at He Jingjing, and He Jingjing nodded helplessly.
"Now that this case is clear, let's go to the court and retire!" the county magistrate left after announcing his retirement. He Jingjing was about to leave when she felt an unkind gaze.
When I looked up, it was Zhong Liang and Mrs. Zhong. There was still a hint of ridicule and disdain in Mrs. Zhong's eyes, such a wild girl still wanted to put her grandson in prison?
He Jingjing lowered her head and pretended not to see the eyes of these two people, and went straight out of the county office and went straight to Haixuan Pavilion.
Now He Jingjing doesn't need to report when he goes to Haixuan Pavilion to find Ye Haixuan, those guys tell He Jingjing where Ye Haixuan is every time, and then He Jingjing just goes over to find it.
But he came ten times, and eight times Ye Haixuan was in the kitchen. Ye Haixuan knows the influence of taste on a restaurant, so it is extremely important to look at the research and development of new dishes, and the development process of each dish must be checked personally, and this time is no exception, Ye Haixuan is in the kitchen as expected.
"Ye Gongzi. He Jingjing exclaimed. Ye Haixuan saw that He Jingjing was back, and hurriedly put down the chopsticks in his hand, and then took He Jingjing to the box on the second floor.
"What's going on?" Ye Haixuan asked impatiently as soon as he closed the door.
Niu Dahu and Jia Renyi were arrested, but Zhong Liang did not commit any crime and went home directly. He Jingjing sighed and said.
"How is it possible?" Ye Haixuan asked with a frown.
Originally, the magistrate had already ordered Zhong Liang to be arrested together, and Jia Renyi and Niu Dahu both identified Zhong Liang together. Who knew that an old lady Zhong would come out halfway. He Jingjing also said with great pity. If it weren't for Mrs. Zhong, Zhong Liang would be in prison by now.
"Mrs. Zhong went? Ye Haixuan nodded knowingly and said.
"I think this matter is like this, Jia Renyi and Niu Dahu are in prison, even if the reputation of my restaurant is back, the purpose of this time has been achieved. He Jingjing thought for a while and said to Ye Haixuan. Indeed, although this matter did not go exactly as I wanted, the main purpose was achieved.
"I don't think I can just leave it at that. Ye Haixuan denied it.
"Why?" He Jingjing asked rhetorically, indeed Ye Haixuan's attitude in this matter made He Jingjing puzzled. On the one hand, Ye Haixuan reminded himself not to involve Haixuan Pavilion, and persuaded himself not to go too far, on the other hand, he responded to his needs, and now he still wants to bite to death and must punish Zhong Liang?
If Zhong Liang is not punished, then he will be even more unscrupulous next time. Jia Renyi and Niu Dahu are just two inconspicuous chess pieces, and if they lose them, they will lose them. Next time, Zhong Liang can find other Jia Renyi and Niu Dahu. ”
He Jingjing sighed when she heard this, how could she not know this truth, but there was always an old lady Zhong Liang behind her, and it was simply impossible to convict Zhong Liang.
"Ye Gongzi, I think I'll forget about this matter, Mrs. Zhong is indeed quite powerful. He Jingjing persuaded Ye Haixuan to give up this idea. He Jingjing also firmly believes that as long as he sits upright, then everything is not a problem.
"I'll go to the prison myself. Ye Haixuan obviously didn't listen to He Jingjing's persuasion, so he struck while the iron was hot that night, and brought his servants to the prison before the heat of the case passed.
Seeing that Ye Haixuan was here again, the official messenger of the guards didn't ask anything anymore and just let him in.
Ye Haixuan came to a familiar place, a familiar prison, and thought of He Jingjing's suffering, and hated Zhong Liang even more in his heart. Even Niu Dahu and Jia Renyi, who were locked up here, didn't have a good face.
"Jia Renyi, don't you think it's unfair? Zhong Liang is happy outside, and all the sins are borne by you and Niu Dahu. Ye Haixuan asked Jia Renyi.
"What can I do if I hate it? The Zhong family has a big business, and there is an old lady Zhong, who can do anything to Zhong Liang?" Jia Renyi looked at Ye Haixuan with a look of resignation.
"When he used you, did you think about what would happen?" Ye Haixuan asked again.
"To be honest, I didn't know that she He Jingjing had other backers besides Ye Gongzi. Jia Renyi said without focus. Hungry and tired, he could only lean against the wall at the moment and answer Ye Haixuan's words weakly.
"Don't you feel unconvinced?" Ye Haixuan continued to ask.
Jia Renyi reacted at this moment, how did Ye Haixuan feel that he was here to provoke himself? Could it be that Ye Haixuan wanted to attack Zhong Liang?
Jia Renyi smiled after thinking of this layer, looked at Niu Dahu who was asleep, and beckoned to Ye Haixuan.
Seeing Jia Renyi like this, Ye Haixuan smiled and took a few steps forward. Jia Renyi stood up against the wall, came to Ye Haixuan, and said a few words in Ye Haixuan's ear through the cell door made of wooden pillars.
"Ye Gongzi, that's all I know, it's still the same sentence, I hope Ye Gongzi will protect me. Jia Renyi added. Ye Haixuan nodded and said to Jia Renyi, after the matter is completed, he will let the magistrate of the county lightly punish Jia Renyi.
Early the next morning, Ye Haixuan came to Jia Renyi's house, and then took something and went to He Jingjing.
"Jia Renyi, this guy is really cunning!" He Jingjing was also slightly stunned after looking at the note Ye Haixuan brought. It turned out that Jia Renyi took advantage of Zhong Liang's inattention and pressed Zhong Liang's handprint on the note that Jia Renyi had set up, and the rules and regulations on it were written that Zhong Liang had arranged for Jia Renyi to do.
"With this, see how he Zhong Liang excuses himself!" After Ye Haixuan handed over the note to He Jingjing, He Jingjing also felt that this was a good opportunity to punish Zhong Liang, and came to the county office with the note.
Not long after, Zhong Liang, who was drinking tea at home, was invited to the county government again, and Mrs. Zhong also came with Zhong Liang. Those officials didn't dare to do anything to Mrs. Zhong, so they arranged a carriage to "invite" the two to the county office.
"What is the reason why Lord Zhixian is looking for my grandson to come over this time?"
"Mrs. Zhong, why are you here in person?"
"What's the matter? someone wants to buckle a big hat for my grandson, and I can't come to avenge my grandson?" Old Lady Zhong sat down in the hall with great momentum.
