Chapter 20: Blame Is Inevitable (2)
As soon as Hu Lezi heard the precepts of the eldest lord Ling Li in the hall, he immediately became half a point timid, and he froze in the middle with a stunned expression, but he still had illusions in his heart, and argued strongly with a hint of luck.
"Master Qingtian, you really wronged the villain. What is the abominable crime of the villain? Aren't they all the nonsense of those long-tongued women in the market and the three aunts and six women with short mouths biting their mouths and chewing the root of their tongues? If you also listened to their gossip, wouldn't it be a framing of the villain. If this is the case, even if the Lord Qingtian convicts me of the heinous crime of Hu Lezi, I am afraid that it will be difficult to convince the public to make the world clear. ”
Hu Lazy's brutal refutation provoked the official master in the hall to immediately put on a cold face, and said angrily with sarcasm. "Ha, ha, huh? Bearded leper, it doesn't have to be what it says! That official will tolerate you for a while, so that you can reflect on your guilt. If it's a real move, then I can open the net and get off lightly; If you hide and don't move, then don't blame the official for being ruthless, so I have to wronged you to serve the torture. As he spoke, the token in his hand was about to be thrown out.
Seeing that the posture of this Shangguan master was very unfavorable to him, Hu Lezi's eyes rolled, and he immediately accompanied a smiling face, and turned his head with a smile to ask the cold Miss Bai Jiasan on the side. "Beauty, it's all this time, you have to say a fair word for me, we have an appointment first. Now, if you let me suffer this unjust lawsuit, you won't be any better when I get out of prison. ”
However, as soon as Hu Lezi said this, the third lady of the Bai family would have a ride. She immediately took a few steps forward and suddenly complained to the official master in the hall. "Lord Qingtian is above, you must have heard Hu Lezi's private threats to the villain just now. Today in the lobby, in front of your old beard, the leper is still ashamed, and he does not change his dead nature, and dares to threaten the little woman. If it is placed on weekdays, Hu Lezi's behavior can be seen in general, and he also asks Lord Qingtian to be the master of the people's daughter, and Hugh has to let go of such an arrogant wicked person. ”
Although the third lady of the Bai family said this, she still didn't forget to look back at the Hu Lezi who was already trembling with fright, and she was a little proud and secretly laughed in her heart.
Li Cai'er next to her seemed to be deliberately cautious at this time, and immediately pretended to cry and cry in front of the outsiders. A sad feeling will inevitably bring the atmosphere in the hall into a heavy haze.
"Lord Qingtian, do you have to be the master of the little girl? A person as vicious and vicious as Hu Laozi must not be forgiven. Otherwise, it is still a weak woman like Xiaomin who suffers from it. ”
"Now that I think about it, half a year ago, my father just borrowed him a tael of silver to treat the disease, and now he wants the little girl to pay him back a hundred taels of silver. What's even more hateful is that Hu Lezi also threatened: If the little girl can't pay off his lucrative silver today, she will rob the little woman to be his eighth concubine. ”
"Lord Qingtian, don't you say that this is not a lazy man forcing the little woman to be alone, and there is no way to live in this world? Isn't this tantamount to murder with a knife and robbery? I really don't know if there is still a heavenly law and a royal law under your rule? ”
Maybe tears are far from being a woman's best weapon, but before Li Cai'er finished crying with tears on her face, the official master in the hall was already so angry that he was smoking, and the green tendons on his forehead were waterfalling.
He slapped the startled wood with one hand and shouted. "Hu Lezi, do you dare to quibble about your wrongdoing? In the realm under my rule, it is a great shame for my lord to have such a wicked, despicable and lazy person like you, who despises the king's law. ”
"Today's matter, if I don't punish you, a heinous lawless person, I am afraid that you will dare to rebel tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, and bring disaster to your neighbors. How can I allow you to ignore such a deceitful man in order to harm the people? ”
The more he talked, the more angry he became, and the official master's face was flushed with excitement for a while, and his eyes were abrupt. Suddenly, he roared, grabbed the big red token on the desk and threw it to the ground. "Come on, take down the leper for me, take down the thirty boards, and then put him on death row, and then make a decision after finding out the truth."
The officials who had already listened to the errands on both sides rushed out of it, rushed up, tied their hands and feet, tied each other left and right, and in an instant they tied up the leprosy and couldn't move.
However, no one could have imagined that Hu Lazy was unwilling to tie his hands, as if he was wearing a fierce face, desperately resisting and struggling.
"Master Guan, you are wronged! Wronged! ”
"Although my leper has done a lot of evil and harmed the village, his sin is not like this. Why put me on death row and wait for the truth to be found? Didn't you abuse lynching without asking about it? ”
"Besides, isn't it all because of the third miss of the Bai family and Li Cai'er? What does it have to do with the evil of villains? Please also ask the official to investigate it clearly, don't let the arrogant take advantage of the loophole and let the adults be fooled, and laugh at one side. ”
Hearing Hu Lezi blowing like this, the official master in the hall sank. He glanced down the hall, and suddenly said to the third lady of the Bai family and Li Cai'er. "Third Miss of the Bai family, Li Cai'er, the official asked you, is what Hu Lezi said just now true?"
Shocked that the situation had changed, the third lady of the Bai family hurriedly grabbed the topic and replied. "The lord is above, what Hu Lezi said is true. But the original story of the matter is not like this, there is a lot of Zhou Zha, I don't know if the official is willing to hear the details? ”
Suddenly, hearing the third miss of the Bai family answer so crisply, Hu Lezi seemed to have an opportunity to take advantage of it, and said to Yan. "Master Guan, since the third lady of the Bai family and Li Cai'er have admitted the fact that they have harmed my lazy son and done evil, then why don't you ask the official to arrest and fight to take down the two of them, and when will you wait?"
Although he said this, he raised his lowered head again, and tried to glance at the official sitting in the hall.
Suddenly, there was silence in the lobby.
One pleaded guilty, the other refuted reasonably, and when the official master in the hall was hesitating, the third lady of the Bai family said it unhurriedly.
"Lord Qingtian, Hu Lezi is indeed the little girl and Li Cai'er who worked together to use suspicion to come to the official office. Otherwise, with the shrewdness and cunning of the lazy man, how could he go to the official office in vain and surrender himself as a cocoon? If it weren't for the last resort, how could the little woman dare to do such a splash. ”
"In order to punish the evil and promote the good, the world is peaceful, I believe that the lord of Qingtian should understand the hard work of the people's daughter."
The official master in the hall suddenly interjected and said, "Oh, what a painstaking effort, then please ask the third lady of the Bai family to explain the reason in detail, the official has his own clear judgment." "That situation is like waking up from a big dream.
Looking back and around, it seemed that all the people were waiting for them to tell the reason, and the third lady of the Bai family immediately cleared her throat and said.
"Lord Qingtian, today the little woman returned from the temple to incense, and in the middle of the return, she happened to encounter Hu Lezi and led someone to rob Li Caier as a concubine. At that time, the little woman had no intention of taking care of things, but Li Caier desperately ran to the little woman's carriage and begged for help. The little woman felt that Li Caier was really pitiful, so she stopped the frame and wrestled with Hu Lezi. ”
"I once wanted to forget my righteousness when I saw the leper, coveted the beauty of the little woman, and wanted to go home with the little girl. The little woman had nothing to do for a while, so she had to conspire with her pretending to be happy, and pretended to be happy with Hu Lezi in the teahouse and wine shop in the city. ”
Hu Lezi didn't know what the plan was, so he went into the city with the little girl to see the official. Ask the Lord Qingtian to be the master of the people and eliminate the evil and evil people together. ”
Hearing the words of the third lady of the Bai family for a while, the official master in the hall immediately let out a sigh of admiration.
"Alas, the third miss of the Bai family, ashamed, ashamed, this official really didn't know that there was such a turbulent story among you!"
"Hey, it's really hard for you, I can't imagine that you, a weak woman, would dare to deal with such a shrewd and vicious strong man, it's really amazing and admirable!"
As he spoke, he turned his words, glanced at Hu Laizi, and immediately said to everyone in the hall. "Ha, ha, under the rule of this master, there is such a righteous and courageous woman, which is really a blessing for the people, and I am lucky. It's rare, it's rare! Master, you will prepare a good chapter for this old man now, and you must publicize the matter of the third lady of the Bai family well, so that the strange surnames in this town can learn and pass it on. ”
"In the future, this spirit will be full of righteousness and virtue."
The master got the order of the eldest master, and without saying a word, he immediately studied ink and paper, and wrote with a pen. When the lazy man in the hall saw this, he was so angry that he immediately made a big fuss again. "Lord Qingtian, I can't help it, I can't do it. For this kind of splashing daughter, you don't punish but praise, what is the reason for this? ”
Stared at Hu Laizi contemptuously, a sarcastic sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and the official master in the hall slapped the startling wood in his hand heavily, and shouted loudly for a while. "Hu Lezi, Master Ben asks you again, is what the third lady of the Bai family said just now true?"
Hu Lezi was stunned, and he didn't know what kind of ointment the official old man Hu Lu was selling, and asked himself the same thing three and five times, and he was so anxious that he argued loudly for a while. "Lord Qingtian, what the third lady of the Bai family said just now is true. But this is a trap set by the third miss of the Bai family and Li Caier in conspiring to set up for the villain! He also asked Lord Qingtian to be the master of the villain and severely punish these two evil women with ghosts. ”
"If the lord is above the lobby today, let the conspiracy of these two wicked women succeed. Wouldn't that let the villain suffer this injustice in vain, and let such a vicious person get away with it! ”
"Lord Qingtian, you must not let the methods of these two wicked women blind your heart, and you will deceive and harm the villain like this in front of everyone's eyes."
"The villain will not accept it until he dies!"
