Chapter 84: Dilemma
Listening to Zheng Gui's words, several servants at the gate of the courtyard began to push and shove with the officials guarding there, and some of the servants of the Zheng family rushed from outside when they heard the news and also joined the battle, which made those servants be pushed to the ground, and the situation became more and more tense. Watch the latest chapter of Perfect World, and look at it quickly.
"Let them go." Li Yuntian's brows furrowed, it seemed that Zheng Gui was determined to report to the official, and the number of servants of the Zheng family at the scene was far more than the number of servants, so he couldn't stop it, so he said to the officials in a deep voice.
Even if Zheng Wanrou really insisted that he raped her, then the worst result would be to lose his official position and resign, and Emperor Yongle would definitely not take the life of him, a new science and technology scholar with two orthodox backgrounds, because of his drunken disgrace.
No matter how he came to Hukou County for more than a year, he has made a lot of contributions, even if the merits are offset, then he can save his life.
Judging from the current situation, Li Yuntian feels that the biggest possibility for him is to be demoted and appointed after being reprimanded, which means that he still has a chance to make a comeback.
If he is lucky, Emperor Yongle will let him "return to his post with his guilt", and he will continue to serve as the magistrate of Hukou County.
Perhaps this is the biggest advantage of the orthodox background of the two lists, with the title of the protégé of the Son of Heaven, he can get the special preferential treatment of the emperor, which in turn makes the world's scholars flock to it.
"Your Excellency!" Luo Ming's face showed an anxious look, he knew that raping a people's girl would be sentenced to a serious crime of hanging, which would bring Li Yuntian a big trouble.
Now that the situation in Hukou County has just opened, it is the time when Li Yuntian is needed, if Li Yuntian is convicted of this matter and leaves Hukou County, then all the Qiqi will have to give up halfway.
Not to mention anything else, just saying that the water bandits on Poyang Lake will launch a counterattack against Hukou County, and the reason why they are now afraid of Hukou County is precisely because they are afraid of Li Yuntian.
As for the Baishui Town Inspection Division, without Li Yuntian behind him, I am afraid that it will collapse in two years.
"Let them go, I believe this matter will be sorted out after all." Li Yuntian waved his hand to Luo Ming and said with a gloomy expression.
The so-called careless move, losing all the games, he was too careless, he never thought that he would plant a heel here in the Zheng family, and he should be a lesson.
Luo Ming had no choice but to give a look to the officials at the gate of the courtyard, and the officials reluctantly let go, and the two servants of the Zheng family immediately left quickly and went to the government to report the case.
"Boss Zheng, Lord Zhixian has important business today, you can leave now." Luo Ming glanced at the two servants of the Zheng family who left in a hurry, and asked Zheng Gui expressionlessly. The update is the fastest and most stable
"Before the government sent someone to investigate the case, he could only stay here and not go anywhere! If you repent, then how can we, the flat-headed people, fight you? Zheng Gui sneered and rejected Luo Ming in one bite.
"You dare to imprison the officials of the imperial court, but you know that this is a great crime." Luo Ming's face sank, and he warned coldly, "If you delay the big thing of the magistrate, what should you be guilty of?" ”
"Hmph, court officials? If you do such a bad thing, can you still be an official of the court? Zheng Gui snorted disdainfully and looked at Li Yuntian coldly.
"Luo Bantou, you go and tell Miss Zhou that the official has urgent business to deal with today, and he can't go to the dock to see off Lu Gongzi." Luo Ming was just about to open his mouth to scold Zheng Gui, but Li Yuntian interrupted him and said in a deep voice.
"If Miss Zhou asks her subordinates what matters to them, what should their subordinates say?" Hearing this, Luo Ming hurriedly asked, he also happened to take this opportunity to go to the Baishui Town Inspection Department to call someone, as long as Li Yuntian was snatched out of Zheng's house, then he could deny what happened between Li Yuntian and Zheng Wanrou.
"Tell me the truth." Li Yuntian smiled bitterly, this kind of thing can't be hidden at all, it's better to tell Zhou Yuting earlier, and then he remembered something, and told Luo Ming in a deep voice, "Sue Mrs. Sù first, and then Miss Zhou." ”
Zhou Yuting has a simple personality, if she does something amazing on impulse, the situation will be bad, so Li Yuntian must let Chen Ningning watch her, so as not to cause any trouble.
"Listen, if the adults lose a single hair, the head of this class will not be able to spare you!" Hearing this, Luo Ming arched his hand to Li Yuntian, walked out quickly, and when he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, he commanded the officials in a loud voice.
"Don't worry, Luo Tou, whoever dares to move the adult, then step on our brother." Hearing this, a stout official patted his chest and said.
Luo Ming glanced at him approvingly, and then left in a hurry, the most important thing at the moment was to go to the Baishui Town Inspection Department to transfer troops and get Li Yuntian out of this place.
"Boss Zheng, since the official has decided to stay here, there is no need to put up such a big battle, are you still afraid that the official will not be able to escape?" Li Yuntian glanced at the people in the courtyard, sat down in the pavilion on the side, and said to Zheng Gui quietly, he wanted to see what Zheng Gui was going to do.
Zheng Gui didn't expect Li Yuntian to be so calm and calm, without the slightest panic, his eyes flashed with a look of surprise, he had already heard about Li Yuntian's deeds when he came to Hukou County, and he could achieve such great achievements in just one year, and he was by no means an idle person.
In particular, the verdict of the case made Zheng Gui even more convinced, and he had never seen a person who did not carry out punishment in the court and made the criminal confess to the law with evidence alone.
Therefore, Zheng Gui couldn't help but feel a trace of inexplicable panic in his heart at this time, could it be that Li Yuntian could see any flaws?
"I think let's let people go down first, since the magistrate has stayed, he will definitely not leave." At this time, the patriarch who was called the fifth uncle by Zheng Gui stepped forward and persuaded softly on the side.
Zheng Gui came back to his senses, waved his hand at the people in the courtyard, and led the men on the scene to leave with a pale face, while the women poured into Zheng Wanrou's boudoir.
Several elders of the Zheng family glanced at Li Yuntian and left helplessly, feeling that Li Yuntian was not worth it, he already had two charming concubines, Lu Cao and Chen Ningning, and Zhou Yuting, a heroic confidant, why bother to provoke Zheng Wanrou, it was really a drunken mistake!
Li Yuntian sat in the gazebo and recalled what happened last night, if he remembered correctly, he ate the same dishes and drank the same wine as everyone else at the dinner, then it could not be a problem with the wine and food, and only the wine glasses, dishes, and chopsticks he used.
According to the number of seats on the wine table, as a dignified county leader, he naturally wants to sit in the first seat, so Zheng Gui can first start to drug him at the wine glasses, chopsticks and dishes in front of him.
Since the Zheng family is in the medicinal materials business, they must also be proficient in medical skills, otherwise how could they start such a big medicinal material business, and it is really too simple to get some medicine.
The so-called once bitten by a snake, ten years afraid of the well rope, after this incident, Li Yuntian rarely spent the night in an unfamiliar place in the future, even if he stayed overnight, he was strictly guarded against accidents.
"Damn it!" In contemplation, a picture appeared in Li Yuntian's mind, his face immediately changed, and he couldn't help but smash the stone table next to him with his fist.
In this picture, he and Zheng Wanrou are turning clouds and rain on the **, turning the dragon and the phoenix upside down, the scene is extremely exciting and fragrant, and Zheng Wanrou scratched out several blood marks on his back, just now he couldn't feel it because of nervousness, and now when he relaxes, the place where he was scratched suddenly hurts faintly.
Li Yuntian couldn't help but smile bitterly, it seemed that this time he was in a catastrophe, and he was calculated by the other party to the letter, but he didn't know why Zheng Gui was so heavy on him, and he was willing to compensate his daughter.
While he was secretly thinking about it, in the boudoir, a group of female relatives surrounded Zheng Wanrou and asked her what happened last night and how Li Yuntian could appear here inexplicably.
But Zheng Wanrou seemed to be frightened, she just cried there vigorously and kept silent, which made all the women anxious, and also shrouded last night's events in layers of fog.
Whitewater Town, Chen House.
With a loud click, when he learned from Luo Ming, who was sweating profusely, that Li Yuntian was detained by Zheng Gui at Zheng's house because he broke into Zheng Wanrou's boudoir at night, and had sent someone to report the case to the government office, Chen Ningning was stunned, and the teacup in her hand fell to the ground suddenly, fell to pieces, and the tea splashed on her legs.
She has been restless since last night when Li Yuntian stayed in Zheng's house, and now something really happened, and the matter is still so big.
"You didn't find out when you left last night?" After the initial panic, Chen Ningning frowned and asked Luo Ming.
Luo Ming and several other officials lived next door to the wing where Li Yuntian lived, and if Li Yuntian went out in a drunken state last night, it would definitely alarm them.
"Madam, the subordinates and others did not hear the slightest movement." Luo Ming shook his head, his face was full of chagrin, if they hadn't slept so hard last night, Li Yuntian wouldn't have gone to Zheng Wanrou's room.
When Chen Ningning heard this, Liu Mei couldn't help frowning deeper, Luo Ming and the others usually don't sleep so deadly, and in Li Yuntian's state, he even knew to close the door of the wing room when he left, plus Li Yuntian actually stayed in Zheng Wanrou's room until Zheng Gui and others went to "catch the adulterer", many places are very strange.
"Go to the inspection department and let Zhao patrol gather manpower." Chen Ningning quickly made up her mind, and after explaining to Luo Ming, she hurried to the dock.
Zhou Yuting had already gone to the dock to see off Lu Tianxing, Li Yuntian originally promised to send Lu Tianxing too, but now that he was detained by Zheng Gui, he naturally couldn't go, I'm afraid that Zhou Yuting is already waiting anxiously.
As Chen Ningning thought, it was almost time for Lu Tianxing to get on the boat and leave, but Li Yuntian had not yet appeared, which made Zhou Yuting secretly complain about him, thinking that he was very rude in front of Lu Tianxing.
However, Lu Tianxing didn't seem to care, chatting and laughing with Zhou Yuting on the dock, waiting for Li Yuntian's arrival.
As a result, Li Yuntian didn't wait, but Zhou Yuting learned the news that he had caused trouble at Zheng's house from Chen Ningning, who was in a hurry, and was taken aback.
Since Li Yuntian had an accident, Lu Tianxing naturally couldn't just leave, so he got into another carriage and followed closely behind. One
