Chapter 41: Qingping County's one-handed blue sky
A major event has happened in Qingping County in the past two days, and people in the streets and alleys are chatting about it in groups. A middle-aged man with a simple face but a cunning look in his eyes asked, "Uncle, do you know?" I heard that the Tianfu family was arrested. Another man with a nervous but smug tone replied, "I don't know!" The Tian family was served in one pot this time, and the more than 40 members of the family were all arrested and put in prison. I heard the second uncle's neighbor's second aunt's family who was on an errand in the yamen say that the Tian family's incident this time was a big deal, and no amount of money could be saved. The man's eyes were even more eager, and he hurriedly asked, "Uncle, do you know what happened to the Tian family?" "Of course I do. But don't spread the word. "I'm tight-lipped, I definitely don't talk nonsense, even to the mother-in-law at home." The man lowered his voice and said, "I heard that the Tian family was involved in selling prohibited items, and a few bright yellow silk horses were found on the spot. You said that the Tian family is not dead! It's really into the eye of money, and you dare to make any money! "Ahh The people of the Tian family are really bold! However, with the way the eldest young master of the Tian family behaves on weekdays, there is nothing he dare not do......
After the well-informed man walked away, the man who had just been tight-mouthed turned around and said to the young man at the entrance of the alley: "Erhe, do you know that the Tian family was arrested for selling prohibited items? This time, it's going to be difficult! "Ahh Uncle, you are really well-informed! It's good that the young master of the Tian family, the dog thief, is dead, I don't know how many women's families have been harmed by him. In the past few years, Qingping County has not had ten women who have hanged themselves and jumped into the well because of his insults, but also eight...... Lord Qingtian is really in charge of the people...... "I heard that the Tian family was unlucky, but it was because he offended the county master. "Shhhh You can't talk nonsense, you don't want to die? Be ...... quietly."
Rumors, or rather news, spread at breakneck speed.
Xu Anping is also paying attention to the progress of the Tian family's case, and he knows the real situation better than others. At the same time, he also knew that once Li Wei eliminated the hidden dangers brought by the Tian family, he should start to find the account books, and it was not very difficult to link the loss of the account books with the Deng family's escape. Therefore, when he heard the streets and alleys talking about the Tian family in the past few days, he was also a little restless in his heart, and couldn't help but think: "Han Pingsan won't have an accident when he goes to Qingzhou to sue the official, right?" ”
At this moment, a woman's bright and coquettish voice pulled his mind back. "Deng Jiu, Deng Jiu! What are you thinking? I'm talking to you, and you're still fugue? Deng Xiaoke pretended to be angry with a small face, and when he spoke, he still puffed out his pink cheeks, and his lotus root arms that were shaking vigorously showed a more lively personality, and he looked very cute. She was wearing a scholar's green shirt at this time, shaking a paper fan in her hand, which made people can't help but secretly say: What a turbid son!
After Xu Anping heard this, he hurriedly replied: "Oh, eldest miss, I was thinking about Tian Huaying just now. It's good now, Tian Huaying has done all the bad things and is in prison, and she will never come to pester the eldest lady again. After saying this, he still felt a little weird in his heart, because Deng Xiaoke's tone just now always felt like he was coquettish with his lover.
"Why are you mentioning this person, it's really a disappointment! disturbed Miss Ben's shopping interest. Hum! Wen Zhao, Huan'er, let's go, ignore this stinky guy! After Deng Xiaoke finished speaking, he took his younger brother's hand and sped up his pace, Huan'er reacted when he saw that the eldest lady was far away from him, and hurriedly raised his little head buried in the snack bag and hurriedly chased after him. Miss, wait for the ring. ”
Xu Anping also felt helpless, many times he couldn't figure his head, he was in his forties in his previous life and this life together, but he still didn't understand the mind of a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl. He hurried to catch up to avoid any unnecessary trouble, but he was still thinking about the problems that the Deng family might encounter next.
"Open the cell door, and the officer will check the condition of the cell." Li Weiwei, dressed in civilian clothes, came to the door of the cell alone.
When the cell boss heard the report from his subordinates, he was so frightened that he broke the black glazed wine bowl that was held to his mouth, and hurriedly asked people to put away the wine and food. When he crawled to the door, his forehead was covered with sweat, and he fell to the ground in a hurry. "Big... People, villains... If you are late, please punish your lord. ”
"Alright, get up. The main reason why I came to the cell today was to see how the prisoners were doing. Lead the way before your head. Li Weiwei looked at the cell boss who looked more like a butcher and didn't say much, flicked the sleeves of his robe, and walked in four directions.
The cell boss was a little frightened, his rough face was a little pale, and he secretly wondered if the matter of deducting the rations of the prisoner was reported. But no, I didn't go too far, I just gave three extra points of moldy rice and two handfuls of sand, so I can't serve the prisoners like my ancestors. Thinking of this, he was a little relieved in his heart, and hurriedly said flatteringly: "My lord, please! Adults watch their step. Seeing that the county magistrate was covering his mouth and nose, he hurriedly said, "Your Excellency, forgive your sins!" The air in the prison was a little foul. ”
Li Weiwei stopped talking after a snort, but looked at the prisoner with dull eyes, numb face, messy body, and even clothes that couldn't cover his body, and his heart didn't fluctuate. In his opinion, these criminals are all vicious and difficult to get rid of, and it is best not to get out of the prison cell for the rest of his life, so as not to affect his political performance.
When the cell boss saw that the county magistrate ignored him, he stopped talking stupidly, and lowered his head to lead the way. Not far from the cell of the Tian family's father and son, he heard the voice of the county magistrate from behind: "You go out, the official wants to say a few words to these prisoners." ”
The cell boss looked at the still expressionless magistrate with some apprehension, and then reluctantly withdrew, glaring at the prisoners around him viciously before leaving, signaling them not to talk nonsense.
After the cell boss went out, Li Weiwei just stood in place for a while and did not speak to the other prisoners, but walked straight to the cell of the Tian family's father and son in the innermost room. After yelling for three days in a row, Tian Huaying, who had been cleaned up by the jailers several times, no longer had the strength to stand up, lying on the thatch on the ground, just turned his head sideways to look at Li Weiwei, and then turned his body lying face up to lie on his side facing in. And Tian Ruogu, who has always been called a close friend by Li, was already covered with scars and dying at this time.
As the winner of the struggle, Li Wei smiled restrainedly and smugly, and said: "Tian Huaying, haven't you recognized your situation until now? Seeing that the other party didn't speak, he lowered his voice and continued: "I'm not afraid to tell you that Tian San you sent to Qingzhou has been killed, and the body is estimated to have been eaten by wild dogs." ”
Tian Huaying's body trembled, slowly turned her body, and looked at Li Weiwei angrily. "People are doing it, and the sky is watching. Li Weiwei, you will have retribution after all. ”
Li Weiwei always kept smiling, and said with a slightly sarcastic smile: "Tian Dashao actually believes in retribution, which really opened the eyes of this official. There are no less than twenty good family women in this county who have been insulted by you, right? This time, the official collected silk for you, but it took a lot of thought. Of course, that's what you gave me. He saw Tian Huaying's face turn from red to blue, and he was very happy. Hand over what you have in your hand, and the officer may consider leaving a whole corpse for you and your father. ”
Tian Huaying's face had turned from blue to purple, and she roared angrily: "Go dream, you dog officer!" Lao Tzu is not a good bird, and you are not a white crow. If I don't believe it, no one can cure you! ”
"You're right. In this radius of 100 miles, the official is the sky. If there is still someone to bring you food, you can ask who the blue sky is in the mouths of the people now. This time, the official has eliminated harm for the people. The smile on Li Weiwei's face was closed, and he said gloomily: "Don't hand it over, right?" Then those concubines of yours may have to go to Baihualou to atone for your sins. This official believes that there will be many people who are interested in Young Master Tian's concubine, and business will definitely be prosperous. ”
After Tian Huaying heard this, a mouthful of blood spurted out of her chest, and she smashed the straw on the ground with her hand, hating herself for seeking skin with the tiger and being devoured by the tiger. Of course, until now, he has not thought about the evil he has done.
"Think about it again, I'll come back in a few days."
