Chapter 164: Master Xu
What the man meant by this, the county commander understood it best, only to see him show a dog-legged appearance, and replied with a smile: "Yes, the villain understands!"
The next morning, everyone came to the yamen again, and with the surprise of the county order, they began to judge the case.
"Summoning the accused!"
The official gave an order, and the Ya Po followed a few officials to walk in, with a look of confidence, and a pair of eyes stared at the county order, which made the already small majesty of the county order disappear.
"The prisoner Chu family, the Lu family accused you of forcibly selling a woman from a good family and buying a murderer, can you plead guilty?"
The county magistrate also knew that this investigation was just a formality, and behind this mother-in-law was the power of the Xu family, he had to be afraid, so even if this mother-in-law didn't save face for him, he could only swallow his anger.
"Back to my lord, the grass people usually abide by the law, and they never dare to do such a murderous thing, I hope the adults will be clear!"
As she spoke, the mother-in-law bowed to him.
The county commander turned to look at Xiaolu and asked, "Lu clan, is it true that you said that this mother-in-law killed your father and mother and forcibly sold you to the Xu family?"
"Back to the adult, these people are human witnesses, at that time they saw the grass people being locked in the cellar by this tooth woman, and the body of the father and mother was still warm, if the grass people killed the father and mother, and planted the tooth woman, how could they tie themselves up?"
Xiaolu's words did make the county order a little difficult, but thinking that he had already promised the people of the Xu family that he must ensure that the Xu family was worry-free, he could only ask the Ya Po again: "Is what she said true?"
"My lord, I'm a mother-in-law, where can I kill her family? What's more, these people haven't seen everything at all, so they want to come to be witnesses, it's hard to guarantee that they weren't bought by this girl!"
As she was talking, Ya Po gave the county order another look, and the county order understood on the spot, but they didn't know that their small movements were all remembered by Murong Jue in his eyes.
"Now the official suspects you of perjury, come here, go to the inn where they are staying and search for the official!"
"Yes!"
As soon as the county order was issued, several officials went straight to the inn, and after a while, they really gained something.
The official had a box in his hand, walked over majestically, and put the thing in front of the county magistrate.
"My lord, this is what I have searched. β
Murong Jue couldn't help but chuckle when he saw this, such a clumsy method would bully and bully these ordinary people, frame them, and do this.
I saw that he opened the box in a pretended manner, and it was full of gold and silver jewelry, and one of the most eye-catching was a gilded table, which was very rare in Luoyang, and only the Bai family's gold shop had such a thing.
"Yo, isn't this something from the Bai family?"
As the county magistrate spoke, the Ya Po immediately picked up the conversation and shouted for herself: "My lord! Look, these people are all colluding! The Xu family has been competing with the Bai family for the position of the imperial merchant all these years, and for this position, they specially framed her!"
When these words are spoken, if those people in the capital hear it, they are afraid that they will laugh off their big teeth, and even the means of framing are so bad, it is no wonder that the Xu family has a deep foundation and wants to compete with a rising star Bai family for the position of the imperial businessman.
Murong Jue thought like this, seeing that the hour was not early, and he thought that it was time for the show to start.
At this moment, the official suddenly shouted: "The governor has arrivedβ"
The man entered the house surrounded by all the small servants, and everyone took a closer look, only to find that the so-called governor was actually the beggar Xiao Xiaomian that day, and they all showed an unbelievable expression.
"Your Excellency, see the Governor!"
Rao is how the county commander is doing his power, and when he saw his boss, he had to admit it obediently, and hurriedly got up and hugged his fists at him to salute.
The governor didn't say a word, slapped him in the face, and scolded angrily: "Wow, there are no tigers in the mountains, the monkey is the king, and the little county commander dares to be powerful here?"
"The villain doesn't dare to ......"
was reprimanded like this, the county order didn't dare to say a word, and could only beg for mercy.
"A few days ago, the official saw that this girl was bullied, and the one headed by was the son of the Xu family, the county order, you said, in order to frame the Xu family, do you want to let this mediocre maid seduce?"
As soon as the governor said this, Murong Jue couldn't help but smile, sure enough, there are still discerning people in this world, what he just thought was really good, these tricks of the county order and the Xu family can only bully and bully the common people in this square inch of place.
Seeing that this person didn't seem to be afraid of the power of the Xu family, the woman just didn't understand, so she stepped forward and smiled: "The adult is young, and there are many twists and turns, you may not know, can the old woman ask the adult to give face, let's go in and talk about it?"
"This official has been on a private visit here for many days, and I still don't know your details? You mother-in-law has always been insidious, and I don't believe anything you say!"
Xiaolu thought that he had fallen into a desperate situation, but he never expected that a divine soldier would descend from the sky, and he couldn't help but have some doubts, and looked back at Murong and Su Yang, his eyes full of gratitude.
Su Yang had already discussed countermeasures with Murong Decision yesterday, and at the moment, everything except for the little shrimp was tamed, it was not out of their calculations, so there was nothing to be surprised about.
Murong Jue looked at the scene in front of him, only felt funny, and shook his fan without saying a word.
When the woman heard this, she instantly sat down on the ground, her eyes widened in disbelief, and she muttered: "No, it's impossible, didn't we all say it, how could it be so ......?"
The governor ignored her crazy appearance, strode towards the main seat, sat down on the Taishi's chair, patted the wood, and asked, "Prisoner Chu, can you plead guilty!"
"Grass, grass people......"
"She doesn't admit it!"
Just when everyone thought that the matter had taken a turn for the better, a male voice suddenly came from the door, and everyone heard the voice, and saw a man about forty or so standing at the door, with a serious expression, striding forward and making a gesture towards the governor.
"Grass people Xu Shilong, meet the governor. β
"Master Xu doesn't need to be polite, what is the so-called thing that came here today? But don't tell this official, just to come to rescue this pickled woman. β
Xu Shilong glanced at the mother-in-law who was kneeling on the ground, snorted disdainfully, and said, "Why does she need the grass people to come to the rescue? If this matter is only related to her, the grass people will naturally not come, but this matter is related to my son, and the grass people have to come to testify." β
As he spoke, he clapped his hands and asked someone to bring a wizard-like figure up, followed by a few small servants, carrying a young man in.
"What is this?"
"This is the dog, since I met the Lu clan that day, I have become sick like this!"
