Chapter 42: No Way

"Someone!" The magistrate was shocked and took the token on the table, "On the orders of this official, go to Wenhua Palace outside Dingxi Town to arrest the murderer!" ”

The head of the knife stepped forward to take the token and shouted "Command!" "Led a group of officials out of the mansion!

"This official is waiting here!" Zhixian had no intention of retiring for the time being, he went to the Taishi chair, supported the table with two hands, and really waited in this courtyard.

The county commander Li Zheng, "Give Liu Shun and Zhu Xiaochun a stool." ”

Li Zheng was tired of standing, but he was still smiling, turning his face and telling his servants to do things, he stood behind the magistrate, his feet supported his fat body too hard, he didn't know how many postures he had changed, just waiting for the magistrate to announce his retirement, he was good to rest at the backyard beauty, but he didn't expect that this person would not leave, and this hall would not disperse.

After waiting for a long time, some people around the mansion couldn't hold back and went back to sleep, and some people went home and moved stools, so they sat next to them and waited.

Xiao Zhiqi took advantage of this moment and came to Liu Ping'an's side, "Let's go back too, we have to hurry tomorrow morning." ”

Liu Ping'an didn't move, "Let's take a look." "She's like looking, this little magistrate, dare not really touch the waiters of Wenhua Palace.

About two hours passed, and the head of the knife who was ordered to go out came back with a string of people, it was the official who had originally followed him out, and there was a waiter from the Wenhua Palace wearing a purple robe.

Liu Ping'an was waiting and almost fell asleep, but when he saw this dress, he came to his senses.

I didn't expect it, this person is really a bit bloody, since he really caught the people of Wenhua Palace. It's just that the number of people is wrong, according to what Zhang Xiu said, there is no one in the Wenhua Palace outside Dingxi Town, and none of the waiters are clean, so why did he arrest a person.

Liu Ping'an hid behind the crowd and observed the situation in the hall through the gap.

The head of the knife went to the magistrate to reply to his life, handed over the token in his hand, and replied: "Lord Hui, Wenhua Palace resisted hard and refused to hand over the person, after we negotiated with the Venerable of the Great Cause, they only handed this person over to us, saying that this person was the mastermind behind the scenes. ”

The person who was arrested looked stupid, raised his head stupidly, Liu Ping'an looked at it through the light, he was very surprised, pushed Xiao Zhiqi in front of him, and whispered: "Uncle, isn't that the person named Wei Ting?" ”

The people who were trapped and brought with them were very similar to the Wei Ting brothers who met at the beginning.

A few days after leaving Dingxi Town, Liu Ping'an couldn't figure out why the Weiting brothers, who were infinitely beautiful at the beginning, became like this and became the waiters of Wenhua Palace.

If that person was really Brother Wei Ting, it was unlikely that he was the one who killed Liu He, because a few days ago, this person was still being sought after by his group of brothers in Dingxi Town.

The person who was brought, no matter how the magistrate asked, he didn't reply, and he didn't even react.

The magistrate noticed something strange, and asked him to come forward to check, and of course he was pathological, and after some checking, he replied: "My lord, this person seems to have been poured dumb medicine." And this person is delirious, as if he is overly surprised, this condition is difficult to recover, and this person is afraid that he will be useless in the future. ”

The magistrate was furious, "These people in Wenhua Palace are so guts, they fool this official so much." Speaking of this, the magistrate laughed angrily, as if he remembered something from the past, and said with disgust: "This official has been studying hard for decades, and he is not as swaggering and deceiving." ”

The magistrate turned to Liu Shun, "Plaintiff Liu Shun, you can see that this official has done his best for this case, but he can only go so far." Defendant Zhang Xiu is guilty of murdering others, and this official may sentence him to death. ”

Zhang Xiu opened his mouth and shouted: "My lord, didn't you say that you can let me live?" ”

The magistrate ignored him at all: "The two people in the grocery store murdered their relatives and caused death, and they can be sentenced to exile, and the guys in the calligraphy and painting shop can be sentenced to fifty years and imprisoned for five years. The magistrate said directly, "If you want to blame, blame the emperor and the law of the southern country." ”

After speaking, the magistrate withdrew directly.

It was the first time Liu Ping'an had seen an official who so readily admitted that he had no choice.
