The two hurriedly lowered their heads and walked forward under the leadership of the guards, although they didn't know how long they had walked and where they had arrived, but they didn't dare to raise their heads at all.

I just followed the guards in front of me, passed through the doors, and finally realized that I had arrived at the place when I heard what the guards said.

The guard respectfully said to the person sitting on the high place, "Lord of the city, the people have been brought. ”

Qianfan: "Well, let's go down." ”

The guard saluted: "Yes." ”

After speaking, the guard withdrew from the room, and the two of them also knelt on the ground at the same time, and said in a respectful tone, "See the city lord." ”

Qian Fan calmly took a sip of tea, as if he hadn't heard it, completely ignoring the two kneeling on the ground, but said to Xingpeng on the side: "How are people now?" ”

Xingpeng is now Qianfan's personal guard, and he knows exactly what kind of identity he should use to face Qianfan, and said respectfully: "People are fine, and now they can drink a small amount of water." ”

Qian Fan nodded: "Oh, what happened to the dinner you prepared?" ”

Xingpeng: "It's already in the kitchen according to your requirements." ”

Qianfan nodded, and said regretfully: "It's a pity for her, so many delicious foods, but you can't enjoy them." ”

The corners of Xingpeng's mouth twitched slightly, and he looked at Qian Fan, and said helplessly: "City Lord, you can wait for her to get better before preparing these foods." ”

Qian Fan shook his head: "No, this is different, the banquet is held because I thank them for saving my beloved, and when she can eat these things, I will definitely prepare what she likes to eat." ”

Xingpeng: "The city lord really cares about her. ”

The two people above were chatting happily, and the two people kneeling at the bottom were indeed in a cold sweat now, and they just wanted to hope that the city lord could remember themselves, and they couldn't stand kneeling like this.

In the end, Qian Fan finally remembered the two of them, and pretended to be surprised and said, "Yo! Why is this still kneeling? Could it be that this prefect likes to kneel? ”

Looking at Qian Fan who was pretending to be stupid, the prefect and the bully secretly gritted their teeth and wanted to tear this person apart, but he was the lord of the city, and they couldn't tease him at all, it was simply embarrassing.

The corners of Xingpeng's mouth twitched slightly, but the joy in his eyes couldn't be concealed, he coughed softly, and reminded helplessly: "Lord City, you didn't let them get up." ”

Qian Fan pretended to be suddenly enlightened, and suddenly patted his head: "Oh! Yes, yes, yes, I'm really sorry, I'm so old, I'm willing to forget some things, hurry up, and help the two of them to the chair and sit down. ”

The guard obediently dragged the two up and put them on the chairs, and the two of them had no chance to refuse, and the two of them had no intention of refusing at all, because their legs were numb, their knees were numb, and they were in pain and numb, and they didn't dare to move at all.

The prefect and the bully: "Thank you for the seat." ”

Qian Fan waved his hand: "It's not a problem, but do you two know what I asked you to do today?" ”

The prefect wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, shook his head and said, "The lower official doesn't know." ”

Qian Fan raised his eyebrows, with a joke in his eyes: "Guess what, what I call you today." ”

Prefect: "The lower officials don't dare." ”

Qianfan: "You don't dare? What else do you dare not do? ”

The prefect was in a cold sweat: "The lower officials don't dare, the lower officials don't dare." ”

The corners of Qianfan's mouth were slightly hooked, although he was laughing, it made people feel inexplicably afraid: "You dare to kill everyone, just let you guess what I am looking for you to do, don't you dare?" ”

The prefect and the bully chuckled in their hearts, and subconsciously knelt on the ground again from the chair, the feeling of numbness in their legs just now had not passed, and now they suddenly knelt on the ground, and instantly felt the pain of their legs refusing, but the two of them could only endure it.

Prefect: "Wronged, the city lord is wronged, the official is wronged, the official did not kill anyone!" ”

Qian Fan nodded: "You really didn't kill anyone, you just shielded the person who killed people, and the person who killed people was your son!" ”

The prefect hurriedly kowtowed fiercely: "Wronged, this is really wronged, the officials are honest and honest officials, and they have been teaching their sons all the time, they must study hard, and they can't do anything insulting to Sven, this, this murder or something, someone must have wronged the two of us!" ”

Qianfan: "Oh? Mrs. Li, they say that you have wronged them, but is there such a thing? ”

Hearing Qianfan's words, the two of them looked up in shock and horror, and saw Mrs. Li sitting on the side, there was a trace of panic in their eyes, they had been keeping their heads down from the time they entered the door to the present, and they didn't look up at the people in the room at all, so they naturally didn't know that the person next to them was actually Mrs. Li.

Mrs. Li looked at the two of them with hatred in her eyes, and said through gritted teeth: "Lord of the city, what the people said is true, and I dare not talk nonsense." ”

Qian Fan raised his eyebrows, looked at the prefect, and before Qian Fan could say anything, the prefect hurriedly said: "Wronged, city lord, this, this wrong, her young lady committed suicide, but their family has to say that I am the murderer, please check the city lord!" ”

Qian Fan raised his eyebrows and looked at the two of them with interest: "Oh? Tell me, why did her young lady commit suicide at your house? ”

The prefect wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: "This, this, this..."

"Then Miss Li fell in love with me and wanted to marry me, I didn't agree, she forced her to die, and I blamed me for this matter, if I hadn't rejected her, she wouldn't have committed suicide because of this." Seeing that his father was hesitant and couldn't say anything for a long time, the bully had an idea and hurriedly spoke.

Mrs. Li looked at the bully angrily, and said viciously: "You fart!" How could my daughter fall in love with you, obviously you fell in love with my daughter at the beginning, and you had to force her to marry you, but if she didn't marry, you would kill you! ”

The bully looked like he had been wronged, and shouted that he was wronged: "Wronged, Lord City, Mrs. Li, although I am also at fault in this matter, but this person is really not killed by me, but committed suicide, and all the people in this mansion can testify to me." ”

Mrs. Li gritted her teeth and said: "The people in your house are all your people, naturally what you want them to say, what they want, how can they be used as witnesses, I am afraid that you will be safe when the time comes!" ”

Qian Fan had a smile on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were cold: "If you three of you say, who should I believe." ”

Mrs. Li also knelt on the ground, her attitude was sincere, and there was hatred in her eyes: "Lord City, please believe me, what I said is true!" ”

The prefect also hurriedly spoke: "City Lord, don't listen to this crazy woman, the lower officials don't dare to lie to you." ”

Qianfan tapped the table, and again, and again, the prefect and the bully only felt that their heartbeat followed the frequency of Qianfan knocking on the table, and they were very flustered.

The corners of Qianfan's mouth were slightly hooked: "Although I am the city lord, I am also very fair, what the two of you said, one knows that it must be true, but I am not sure yet." ”

Qian Fan raised his eyebrows: "It's better to be like this, Mrs. Li, you are wronged here?" First detain with this prefect and the bully, and take me to understand the matter, are you talking? ”

Mrs. Li had a dark face and nodded slightly, she can only do this now, she is just a small woman, and she can't directly cross the people below and find the city lord for any reason, so this punishment is light.

But the bully was not satisfied with this result, and said without hesitation: "Lord of the city, I remember that there is a law that says that the people of Pingming are not allowed to pass my father and these officials below to go to you, should this Mrs. Li be punished?" ”

Qian Fan nodded seriously: "Well, it really should be punished, come on!" Drag down the major 20 boards! ”

The bully smiled with satisfaction, but he felt that this was not enough, who made her dare to sue and see that he didn't pull out her skin!

The corners of the bully's mouth were slightly hooked, and he kowtowed: "Lord City, are you punishing a little too lightly?" How can you show the people how great and selfless you are? ”

Qian Fan nodded thoughtfully: "Well, what you said makes sense, as a city lord, I dare to disobey me like this, and the punishment is indeed a bit light." ”

Qian Fan turned to the guard who had just come in and said, "That's it, add fifty boards, and hit hard!" ”

The bully's heart was simply happy, but his strong expression was worried, and he persuaded him: "Lord City, this Mrs. Li is really old, if you fight like this, Mrs. Li will definitely not be able to stand it." ”

Qian Fan raised his eyebrows: "Who told you that I was going to beat Mrs. Li?" ”

The bully was stunned in an instant, he didn't hit Mrs. Li, so this is... Hit your own!

Qian Fan seemed to see what the bully was thinking, and nodded unabashedly and said, "That's right, it's you who hit you, no!" To be precise, it was your father and son who were beaten! Come! Torture! ”

The bully said unconvinced: "I don't accept it!" It's obviously Mrs. Li's fault, why do you want to punish our father and son! ”

Qian Fan's eyes became cold, and his tone was serious: "Are you really stupid for me!" Didn't you take the city lord in your eyes! ”

The bully hurriedly said: "Don't dare, don't dare, it's just that I don't know what's going on, and I ask the city lord to give an explanation." ”

Qian Fan raised his eyebrows: "You killed someone, and now you want to borrow my hand to harm Mrs. Li!" You said you shouldn't fight! ”

The prefect hurriedly spoke: "Oh, wronged, this is a great wish, the son of the lower official is not in good health, he can't stand the beating, the lower official will carry it, the lower official will carry it!" ”

The bully frowned: "Old man, I'm young, this pain is nothing to me, you are on the side." ”

The prefect didn't dare, hugged his son's leg, cried and howled: "No, you are the only seedling in our family, if you have something three long and two short, what should I do, don't allow it, I don't allow it!" ”

Qian Fan's eyes changed, and he was cold and piercing: "Did the city lord say that one person was beaten, did you have any misunderstanding, both of you will be punished, both of you will be beaten!" ”

This time, the guard did not grind and chirp, but without saying a word, he directly dragged the person to the bench, and then began to start, and once and again, he hit the top of the milk meat with a stick, and the sound was particularly muffled.

After all, the prefect is old, and he can't make a voice after being beaten a few times, his face is narrated, and the guards glanced at it, afraid that the two of them would be killed, so he hurriedly looked like the city lord above.
