Gu Zeliang and Gu Chao actually didn't want to admit it, but there was no way, they had already taken all the money, and they were still carrying it in their pockets at this time, if they didn't admit it, Gu Pingyong would definitely not let them go.

Anyway, Heng Zhi is a death, and now he is already standing on the side of Gu Pingyong, of course, he will go down this road.

As for how to quibble, Gu Pingyong has to come to this matter, he is the leader, and the two of them just follow along.

Gu Pingyong was still thinking about how to fool this matter, who knew that the carriage stopped, and the official stepped forward to lift the curtain of the carriage, and someone came out of it, still wearing an official uniform.

Gu Pingyong was even more frightened this time, he didn't expect that not only the officials came, but also the officials of the yamen came, this can't be the county master, right?

He is really weak now, and he can't stand anymore, but fortunately, Gu Chao helped him, "Uncle, you can't fall, if you fall, what will the two of us say?" This matter can't be solved now, so let's find a way. ”

Gu Pingyong swallowed his saliva, and he couldn't say anything, "Then that is the county master?" ”

Gu Chao shook his head, "How do I know, I haven't seen the county master again." ”

Gu Pingyong's eyes darkened, and he even wanted to turn around and go home, leaving this mess behind.

He really did it when he thought so, and when he turned around and wanted to leave, Lin Changyuan stopped him directly, squinting his eyes slightly, "Uncle Gu, didn't you just let us go to the town and ask?" Now that the eldest lord has come to the village, it's better to make it clear to your face, or you will say that we have framed you in a while. ”

Of course Lin Changyuan won't let him go, this old thing, I didn't see him weak when he fooled people just now, and when I saw people from the Yamen at this time, I was weak in my heart, now I go, how can there be such a good thing?

Could it be that this matter is pushed to Gu Zeliang and Gu Chao? The two of them are at most little minions, and the person who came up with the idea behind this is naturally him, and he must give him a good look this time, otherwise he doesn't know what to do in the future.

"What are you stopping me from doing? I'm going back, I'm going back to see my dad. ”

Lin Changyuan snorted lightly, "Grandpa Gu is fine, there are people at home to take care of, you explain this matter here, you went to get the silver, and now that someone from the yamen is coming, you want to leave, so who will explain this matter?" Didn't you just say you weren't lying? It's just right to confront you face to face, it's up to you to have the guts. ”

The people in the carriage had already come down, wearing official uniforms, with a majestic face, and the common people didn't dare to look up when they saw him, so they quickly lowered their heads, and their hearts were very empty.

They were fighting here just now, if the yamen held on to this matter, they would all be punished, what should they do?

An official in front of him raised his voice and said, "I don't kneel down when I see the magistrate." ”

Hearing this, everyone trembled, and then quickly knelt down, "The grass people pay a visit to the county master." ”

Wu Zhixian said, "You all get up, just now the official saw that you were fighting, come and tell me what is going on, who is in charge of this Tongxin Village?" ”

Hearing this, no one in the crowd responded, and the others looked at Gu Pingyong one after another.

Gu Pingyong's hands are shaking at this moment, where do you dare to stand up? Swallowed his saliva and stood still.

Lin Changyuan pursed his lips, this is Gu Pingyong's guts, he was bent on being the patriarch of the Gu clan, and he didn't even dare to stand up when he encountered something, the official asked who was the person in charge of Tongxin Village, and he didn't even dare to seize this opportunity, he still wanted to be the patriarch like this, it was really whimsical.

Gu Zelin was also there at this time, and seeing that Gu Pingyong didn't react, he stood up, "Go back to Qingtian Lord, it is my grandfather who is in charge of Tongxin Village, and now my grandfather is unwell and can't come out at home, this is my uncle, if there is anything, just ask him." ”

Wu Zhixian looked at Gu Pingyong and asked in a calm voice, "You are the person in charge of this Tongxin Village?" ”

Gu Pingyong's body shook, and he quickly knelt down again, put his hands on the ground, and kowtowed, "Big ...... The eldest lord, Gu Pingyong, the grass people, is the eldest son of Gu Kaiming, the patriarch of the Gu clan in Tongxin Village. ”

Wu Zhixian nodded, "Okay, you can tell me what happened to the villagers fighting just now, don't fool the official, the official just saw it clearly in the car." ”

Gu Pingyong didn't dare to get up when he lay on the ground, he lowered his head, the sweat on his forehead slid down his cheeks, where could he speak?

He was silent for a long time, Wu Zhixian looked at him, and his voice became deeper, "What, you still don't want to tell this official?" ”

The official in front of him put the stick in front of him, "The county magistrate asked, raised his head and replied. ”

Gu Pingyong was about to faint with fright, so he raised his head tremblingly, wiped the sweat on his forehead with his hand, and glanced at Wu Zhixian with a weak heart.

"Back to ...... Back to the old man's words, just now the villagers were fighting over the disaster silver, and now there is nothing to do. ”

Wu Zhixian had already heard Siqi and Lin Changfu talk about Tongxin Village in the town before, and now he also knew it in his heart, and when Gu Pingyong said this, he took the opportunity to ask, "There is a problem with the distribution of disaster silver, why are the villagers fighting?" How do you, the one who calls the shots, arrange it? And there was a fight in the village, and you know, according to the law, it was punishable by ten boards. ”

The villagers were all trembling with fear, ten boards, the people of the yamen didn't recognize people when they played the boards, they didn't have relatives, why should people show mercy?

Look at the board again, what about Lao Kuan, can't bloom when you hit your ass?

Gu Pingyong's voice was trembling all the time, and at this time, the county master asked, where did he dare to lie, and said it all in one go.

Wu Zhixian said angrily, "This official asks you again, how did the yamen arrange this disaster silver?" ”

Gu Pingyong swallowed his saliva, so he had to tell the truth, "The yamen said to give each person two taels of silver." ”

"Okay, the official will ask you again, how did you distribute it?"

"Grass, grass people, grass people give each person three taels of silver, ten ...... Very fair. ”

Wu Zhixian snorted coldly, "The yamen only issued two taels of silver, and you took out three taels of silver, let me ask, do you have ten thousand family wealth?" The extra one or two pieces of silver were subsidized by yourself to the villagers, couldn't you? ”

Gu Pingyong shook his head weakly, "I haven't made up for it." ”

Wu Zhixian smiled, "Okay, then the official will ask you again, where did the extra one or two pieces of silver come from?" ”

Gu Pingyong was speechless this time, he knew that it was completely unruly for him to do this, and he dared to be so arrogant before, completely because he expected that no one in the village would be able to go to the government to make trouble.

Now that the magistrate is in front of him, how dare he quibble, he was speechless for a while.

Seeing him like this, Siqi directly ran to Wu Zhixian and knelt down, and pounced, Lin Changyuan and Xuan's looked distressed, this girl was too sincere.
