Chapter 67: The Man Behind the Scenes

Hearing the threat in the words of the county order, several people couldn't help but look at Scarface.

However, Scarface was also very embarrassed at the moment, he didn't expect to accept a sum of money from others to make trouble, and even put them in by himself, knowing that this was the case, he would never take this deal.

Seeing that several people didn't speak, the county magistrate didn't want to delay any longer, so he ordered someone to bring the torture instrument to the front of the court.

Seeing all kinds of torture instruments in front of him, one of the strong men was suddenly stunned, he leaned over and lay on the ground, and kept kowtowing and said, "My lord, I admit it, we are indeed deserters, and this time we were also instructed to go to Tangdong Restaurant to find fault." ”

"Fourth, don't talk nonsense!" Several other people were so anxious that they wanted to gag him, but their hands were tied and they were powerless.

"Big brother, I'm afraid, once all these torture instruments are gone, we'll be finished!" The strong man, known as the fourth old, said fearfully.

"Are you stupid or not, admit that we are deserters, are we still alive?" Scarface was obviously angry, but he couldn't do anything about it, and now they were fish on the chopping board, to be slaughtered.

"My lord, here is Zou Shiyan, the current shopkeeper of Tang Dong Restaurant, since these people also admit that they were instructed by others, please find out the truth and give me Tang Dong justice."

Lord County Lingfa was a little displeased, he was now mainly examining the identities of these deserters, maybe he could catch more deserters from the northwest, so that his political achievements this year could be counted on.

Seeing Zou Shiyan, who was kneeling in the hall, straightened up, looking like he wanted to find out the truth, but the county magistrate didn't want to pay attention to him.

At this time, a female voice came from the entrance of the hall, "My lord, the little girl is the young owner of Tangdong Restaurant, this is a list of damaged appliances in the restaurant, please check it." ”

Tang Chu did not enter the hall, but after the county decree allowed it, Shuangxi handed the envelope to the officials.

Zou Shiyan also looked out of the hall at this time, he couldn't see Tang Chu's face clearly, but he could be sure that the person wearing the hat must be her.

Did she come here because she was worried about herself? Zou Shiyan thought of this, and couldn't help but feel a burst of joy in his heart.

The prefectural commander was very familiar with this kind of routine, and he opened the envelope, and sure enough, there was a silver ticket mixed in the list of damaged equipment, and the value made him very satisfied.

As the biggest official in Suizhou, the county magistrate is not short of money but also loves money, and Tang Chu did this precisely because he understood his temperament.

With a smile, he put the silver ticket in his arms, opened the list of compensation for the restaurant, and asked the five big men, "Who instructed you?" If you can offset the credit, Miss Tang can exempt you from compensation, and you can also reduce the punishment for a few years. ”

Hearing this, those people hesitated, as deserters, once they were caught, they were going to go to the northwest arctic cold to mine, once they were convicted, they would never have a chance to turn over.

The scar-faced man exchanged glances with the others, and they all understood what his companions meant.

"Adults, the little ones are willing to atone their merits and confess to the people behind the scenes!" The scar-faced man compromised.

"Okay, tell me, who is that man?" The prefectural magistrate asked.

At this time, not only did Zou Shiyan begin to wait with bated breath for the final name, but the people standing outside the hall were also very curious about who was so vicious and framed in Suizhou.

"That person is the lady in charge of Zheng Ji Silk Village." Scarface suddenly burst out with such an astonishing answer.

"Miss, isn't that Zheng Ji Silk Village ......" Before Shuangxi's words were finished, he was gagged by Tang Chu.

As soon as this name came out, it was already very clear, it must have been a few days ago that my father rejected their family's proposal, and because of the inability to get over the face, the lady of the family resorted to a stupid trick.

It's really a joke, does Mrs. Zheng think that their Tang clan can be brought down just by relying on the restaurant?

Fortunately, she did not agree to this marriage, otherwise even if she married, she would have to be angry with this Mrs. Zheng, and the measure is so narrow, no wonder that in the past 20 years, the Zheng family's industry is still living on its old book, and it has not grown at all.

Despised the Zheng family for a while, Tang Chu waited for the results of the county order.

Sure enough, the county magistrate quickly ordered the official to invite Mrs. Zheng to come to the county office.

At this time, Shuangxi saw a man dressed as a small guy in the crowd leaving in a hurry.

"Miss, you see that person can't be a descendant of the Zheng family to go back and report the news." Shuangxi pointed to the little guy who ran away and said.

"It doesn't matter if it's right or not, the witnesses are all there, and she can't escape responsibility." Tang Chu replied calmly.

"Miss, if Mrs. Zheng bribes the county commander, wouldn't we lose Mrs. and lose our soldiers!" Double Happiness whispered.

"No, so many people have already heard the testimony in public, she can't hide even if she wants to, let alone ......," Tang Chu said confidently.

"Miss, what's more?" Double Happiness couldn't help but ask.

Tang Chu was about to continue, but was picked up by a gorgeously dressed middle-aged man beside him.

"What's more, Suizhou City is about to usher in a temple fair, and tourists from all over the world will gather here, and the county magistrate will definitely not want the prestigious Tangdong Restaurant to have a stubble at this time, so he will definitely punish Mrs. Zheng severely, and it can be regarded as killing the chicken and showing it to the monkey." The middle-aged man explained.

"What this old man said is very true, I don't know your surname, you can come to my Tang Family Restaurant to taste the dishes when you have time." Tang Chu saw that this middle-aged man had an extraordinary identity, so he took the initiative to release his kindness.

"Miss Tang is worthy of being the only heir of the Tang clan, she is brave and strategic, but she is a wandering person, not worth mentioning, not worth ......mentioning," the middle-aged man excused.

Tang Chu saw that the other party was unwilling to reveal his identity, so he was not strong.

A quarter of an hour passed, and the lady of the Zheng family finally came late, she was dressed very well, and it could be seen from her temperament that she was not a good stubble.

I saw that after she came to the court, she bombarded a few big men, "You few pickled talents, you dare to frame Mrs. Ben, you really ate the bear's heart and leopard gall!" ”

Turning around, she knelt down to the county magistrate and said, "My lord, the people are wronged, the people have always eaten fasting and recited the Buddha, and they have never done anything that hurts the heavens and reason!" She performed and sang well, and everyone's eyes were drawn to it.

"Silence!" The county magistrate patted the shocked wood and stopped Mrs. Zheng's words.

"Zheng, let me ask you, these people have confirmed that you made a deal with them to make bugs appear in the food of Tangdong Restaurant, so as to achieve the purpose of discrediting them, can you admit it?"

"My lord, this is a non-existent thing, how can a woman do such a hurtful thing? It must be these people who want to blackmail people for money, so they shirk it on the people's women. ”

Mrs. Zheng is also a clever tongue, and she refuses to admit the wrong things she has done at this moment.
