Chapter 394: Scars
Zou Xian was stunned, pointed at Qin Sanlang, and before the words came out, Qin Sanlang had disappeared.
After a while, he relieved his breath, pointed to the direction where Qin Sanlang disappeared, and asked angrily, "Who is this person?" What a guts! Even a soldier dares to ignore the orders of his own officer...... The ruler will punish him! ”
Lu Hehua saw Zou Xiancheng coming, and hurriedly shouted: "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, you want to save us, we didn't do anything, but we were dragged to the county office overnight, they treat the officials and relatives like this, they simply don't take you in their eyes, brother-in-law, you are ...... quickly."
"Shut up! Where did the lady come from? The official's father-in-law's surname is Hong, your maiden family's surname is Lu, and your husband's family is surnamed Niu, how could this official be your brother-in-law? "Zou Xiancheng is very angry, this Lu family is really unreliable, when is it, and he is still called a brother-in-law, for fear that others will not know that he spoils his concubine and kills his wife, for fear that others will not know that he intends to bend the law for personal gain and use his official position to save the concubine's family?
Lu Hehua was yelled, stunned for a while, and angry: "Brother-in-law, are you going to recognize us?" Okay, okay, sure enough, when you see our Lu family suffering, you plan to abandon the Lu family, an old thing with no conscience. When I doted on my sister at the beginning, you were the same, although you couldn't marry my plum blossom as a wife, but the Lu family is also your father-in-law's family, let's treat it as a serious relative, and now you ......"
"Shut up!"
"Shut up!"
"Shut up!"
Three angry shouts rang out, respectively from Lu Laoda, Zou Jiang, and Zou Xiancheng.
Zou Xiancheng was already sick, and when he was so angry with Lu Hehua, his throat and eyes were sweet, and a bloody breath rushed straight to his throat, and he was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
Zou County Chengsheng held back, but he was so angry that he pointed to the landing lotus, and he didn't say a word.
Master Shao took a few steps forward, came to Lu Hehua, and warned her in a low voice: "If you don't want to die, shut up, if you provoke our adults, we will leave immediately, and let your Lu family fend for itself." ”
Master Shao is a scholar, very important, originally supported Zou Yuqian, but Zou Yuqian was too stupid and killed himself.
And Zou Xiancheng hated Mrs. Zou's room because of Zou Yuqian, and planned to abandon Mrs. Zou's room and support Zou Yuzhen to be the future head of the Zou family.
However, Master Shao knew that Zou Yuzhen was cold, ruthless, and not a good owner, so Master Shao didn't want Zou Yuzhen to take the position.
He's bullish on ...... Zou Yukun's eldest son.
Although Zou Yukun is muddy, his eldest son is a good one, although his knowledge is not as good as Zou Yuqian's son, but Zou Yukun did not make Zou Xiancheng's concubine's belly bigger, based on this alone, Zou Xiancheng will not hate Zou Yukun's son very much.
Now that something has happened to the Lu family again, if the old man Lu is really a fugitive slave, then even if the Zou family spends money to buy Zou Yuzhen, Zou Yuzhen has a grandfather who is a fugitive slave, and it will be difficult to test his fame in the future.
After Master Shao finished scolding Lu Hehua, he came to Zou Xiancheng and whispered to Zou Xiancheng: "My lord, if the Lu family really can't be saved, my lord doesn't have to tear his face with the county commander." It must be known that no matter how important the Lu family is, it is not as important as the Zou family, and adults can't let the Zou family fall into a desperate situation for the sake of irrelevant outsiders. ”
The Zou family has lost too much face recently, and it is already the laughing stock of the county, if it is against the county magistrate because of saving the Lu family, it will be worth the loss.
Xu Xianling's hand holds the credit for removing half of Da Chu's lichang, and Gao Sheng's promotion is a sure thing.
At this time, he went against Xu County's order, in case he was in a hurry with Xu's order, when he was transferred, he would go to Zou County, and someone would come to check Zou County, but they couldn't help it.
When Zou Xiancheng heard this, he finally calmed down and nodded at Master Shao: "Master reminds me that you can't make a hard deal with the county commander." ”
He turned his head, glanced at the Lu family, his face sank, and without saying a word, he was supported by Zou Jiang and went to the backyard of the county government.
The pond in the backyard of the county government was not far away, and Qin Sanlang had wind under his feet, so he carried Old Man Lu to the edge of the pond after a short time, and after untying the rope that bound Old Man Lu's hands, he threw Old Man Lu into the pond with a bang.
Old Man Lu was stunned, half floating on the water, looking at Qin Sanlang, and scolded: "Qin family, you dare to declare a personal vendetta!" ”
Qin Sanlang didn't pay attention to him at all, and after taking a long bamboo pole handed over by Jiang County, he began to slap the old man Lu in the water.
Old Man Lu was not stupid, and he had already sensed that Qin Sanlang had an ulterior motive for throwing him into the water, but he just came up with such an idea, and before he could figure out why Qin Sanlang did this, the long bamboo pole called.
With a few snaps, the bamboo pole hit him hard, and Old Man Lu couldn't bear to be beaten, so he immediately dived into the water, and after a while, he dived to the other side of the pond.
Xu Xian ordered them to stand by the pond and watched, nodding their heads...... Old Man Lu can indeed swim in the water, and after a while, Old Man Lu wants to refute that he can't swim in the water, and there is no such thing as swimming and escaping, I'm afraid it won't work.
Qin Sanlang saw Zou Xiancheng coming, and ran quickly to the other side of the pond, and the long bamboo pole hit Old Man Lu again.
"The descendants of the Qin family, you are a wolf cub who kills a thousand knives, you are trying to kill people." Old Man Lu scolded Qin Sanlang, dived under the water again, and after a while, appeared on the other side of the pond.
Zou Xiancheng frowned, and asked the county commander in an unkind tone: "My lord, what are you doing?" Let a descendant beat an old man like this, if it spreads, I am afraid that it will hinder the reputation of Darao's officials. ”
Xu Xianling looked at Zou Xiancheng and said with a smile: "Lord Zou is too worried, San Lang is just testing the suspect, lest the suspect retract his confession in court." ”
Suspects?
Retract your confession in court?
Could it be that Xu County Ling has any evidence that is unfavorable to Old Man Lu?
Zou Xiancheng was still thinking about it, and Xu Xianling had already said to Qin Sanlang: "The descendants of the Qin family, drag Old Man Lu up, tie it up, and escort him to the front lobby." ”
After a while, Xu Xianling was shocked and began to ascend to the court, first announced Xue Lao, and asked him to tell everyone about the discovery that Old Man Lu was a fugitive slave, as well as the events of the Linglong Painting Boat back then.
Old Man Lu's face turned pale when he heard this...... Sure enough, it was discovered that he was a slave back then.
He immediately shouted injustice: "Wronged, people are wronged, it was this surnamed Xue who hit my mule cart some time ago, and after being scolded by the old man, he held a grudge and deliberately slandered the old man as a fugitive slave, wanting to harm the old man's family...... The old man has never even been to Jiangnan, how can he be a fugitive slave from the Linglong Painting Boat. ”
Xue Lao smiled: "Huai Siliu, although you pretended to be a beggar and sold yourself under a false name, but when you sold your body, the deed of sale was kept in the Jinling Mansion, can you deny it for a while, and for a lifetime?" The adults have already sent someone to Jinling, at most ten, you can get the files of Jinling Mansion, come back and compare your handprints, as long as the threads of the handprints are aligned, you can't quibble. ”
Old Man Lu's face was pale, and he almost fainted...... But he can't be locked up now, he has to buy time for his family, use these ten time to escape, and quibble: "What Huai Siliu, the old man doesn't know what you are at all?" You and I are Huai Siliu, what evidence do you have? Sue without evidence, this is slander, and you will go to jail! ”
He also said to the county order: "My lord, you have no evidence to prove that the person is Huai Siliu, you can't arrest people, you have to release people immediately!" ”
Xu Xianling was stunned, indeed, before the files of Jinling Mansion were sent, Old Man Lu could only be regarded as a suspected fugitive slave, he could send someone to keep an eye on the Lu family, but he couldn't arrest the Lu family.
Now that the Lu family is arrested, it is already a broken criminal law.
Xue Lao deserved to be a housekeeper for the Fu family, and said with a smile when he heard this: "Huai Siliu, since you want to resist stubbornly, then I will have another matter." Is the word Huai 46 engraved on your shoulder armor? This is the rule of the Linglong painting boat, and every subordinate who sells himself into slavery will engrave words on the back shoulder armor. ”
And said: "You are very clever, in order to cover up this past, you will definitely ruin those three words." But that's the flesh, once it's destroyed, it will leave a scar, you can't, you just have a scar on the back of your shoulder armor. ”
