415 Surrendered
Liang Xianling was so frightened by his voice that he hurriedly nodded and said, "Yes, the fifth prince please come in, please come in quickly!" "What else can he say, what is in front of him is the fifth prince, the only son of the emperor back then, the successor to the throne in the future, can he offend? Thinking about his attitude towards him just now, I felt terrified, this person wouldn't really come to check on him, right?
Shang Jingcheng didn't go in, but stared at him with a smile on his face for a while, until he saw that the sweat on his forehead was not stopping, and he said as if he remembered something: "Ah, I almost forgot, go and bring someone up." He said to Si Hao, who was standing behind him.
Si Hao nodded slightly, turned around and brought Ah Fu over, he was holding the unconscious Mrs. He, as soon as he saw this county master, his eyes shot at him fiercely.
Liang Xian Ling saw Mrs. He who was hugged by Ah Fu, he was stunned, and remembered the cause and effect of this morning, the whole person's face turned white all of a sudden, and he asked with a stiff face: "Five, five princes, what is the matter with that woman?" "She can't be the Fifth Prince, right? But no, isn't this woman a village woman in Ningbai Town? How did you get to know these five princes?
Thinking about it like this, he calmed down a little more, it should be that the fifth prince happened to pass by and saw her, so he would think about standing up for her.
"This, I'm going to ask Liang County Order!" After Shang Jingcheng finished speaking, he glanced at him coldly, and stepped into the gate of this official mansion, Chunhua came to Ah Fu's side, glanced at his mother, who was still unconscious, and followed in with a worried face.
Xie Chuyao and Lu Zhu also followed.
There are also some viewers who will let go of such a cane when they see it? They all rushed up and squeezed into the door of the county government, but because the door was guarded by the officials, they could only poke their heads at the door and look inside.
Shang Jingcheng was invited to a high position by the Liang County Order, and he said with a flattering face: "The five princes, please sit down, what kind of tea do the five princes usually drink?" Da Hong Pao or Tieguanyin? ”
"The county magistrate still has the heart to drink tea!" Shang Jingcheng's voice was cold and indifferent, and he knew that it was not easy to mess with at a glance.
Liang Xian Ling smiled, glanced at the people who came in with them, and then arranged for someone to bring chairs for them to sit down one by one, although I don't know what their relationship is with these five princes, but those who came in must also know each other, he doesn't dare to offend these five princes at all now, even other people He doesn't dare to offend.
Yan Zhengxiang sat on the ground and waited for a while, but the main lord sat there without saying a word, and the oppressive atmosphere in the room made him breathless, and he couldn't help but ask with a stiff smile: "That, Fifth Prince, I don't know what we are going to do next?" "What do these five princes want to do? Said it was going to be tried for the first trial? But what is the trial? Is it to judge him?
As soon as he thought of this possibility, he shuddered again, and immediately shut up again, not daring to ask again.
"Liang County Order, what do you say we are going to do? Liang Xianling can sit comfortably? Shang Jingcheng asked lightly, his tone was as flat as if he was saying that the weather was good today, which made people unable to see joy and anger.
But this Liang County Order is also a long-standing officialdom, how can he not hear what he said? He immediately stood up, trembled and came to the center of the main hall, first saluted him respectfully, and then bowed his head and said, "Fifth prince, the minister is guilty." "Now it seems that he has to move forward and retreat.
"Oh? What is the crime of Liang County? Shang Jingcheng lowered his eyes slightly, you old fox, see what you can say.
"The fifth prince, Weichen did a wrong thing this morning, and it is also something that makes the minister still uneasy, just now I saw the woman in the arms of this little brother, and I remembered that this woman came to the county government early this morning to make trouble, how the official reasoned and persuaded couldn't make sense, she not only threatened to kill the official, but also cursed the official's son-in-law, the official was angry for a while, so he beat her and threw her out." Now I can only leave this matter to those officials.
Anyway, looking at the woman's appearance now, she should not be able to wake up in a short time, and even if he made up a myth, no one would refute him.
Shang Jingcheng tapped his fingers on the table a few times, sneered and said, "Go on." "Let's make it up, keep making it up, and see what else you can come up with.
"When Weichen knew about this, the woman had already said that she was thrown out by them, and Weichen came out to see it, but he didn't find the woman, and he didn't expect to be saved by the five princes, it's really good, this matter is not good for Weichen, he didn't control his subordinates, and he begged the five princes to punish him!" Liang Xianling said it so deeply that he was almost about to shed tears.
Shang Jingcheng glanced at him and asked, "Which of the servants beat that woman and brought people up?" ”
Liang County Ling had already guessed that he would behave like this, and hurriedly said: "Back to the fifth prince, those officials were ordered to beat by the lower officials in the morning, and now they are recuperating at home, the fifth prince, if you want to punish this matter, you can punish the lower officials, it is the lower officials who did not control their subordinates." ”
"You dog official is talking nonsense, it's obvious that you ordered someone to beat me, and you ordered someone to ask for me!" Mrs. He, who didn't know when she woke up, pointed at Liang Xianling and scolded, so excited that she seemed to faint at any time.
Xie Chuyao hurriedly stepped forward to probe her pulse, and was relieved to make sure that it had stabilized.
Liang Xianling didn't expect that his lie would be so directly exposed, his face suddenly turned the color of pig liver, and he pointed at Mrs. He angrily and scolded: "You crazy woman, don't talk nonsense, what nonsense are you talking about?" I don't know what you've done yourself, and you're still yelling here! ”
"Why did I yell at me? It's you, it's you...... You old thing...... I've done all my bad things, and now even your damn son-in-law has come out to hurt people, I'm ...... I'm going to kill you, I'm ......" Before she could finish speaking, she was too excited to breathe, Ah Fu quickly patted her on the back and gave her a good breath.
When Liang Xianling heard this, he quickly turned around and hugged Shang Jingcheng and said: "Fifth prince, don't listen to this woman's nonsense, Xia Guan has always been careful to obey his duties, although he has not done much good, but Xia Guan has never done anything bad!" As he spoke, there was a sense of grievance on his face, as if he had been slandered.
Although the onlookers were not allowed to enter, they were still free to speak, and one of them shouted: "It's strange that you haven't done anything bad, don't you know what's going on with the taxes in the town?" Isn't it cool to squeeze us? Now pretend to be pitiful! ”
Others also hurriedly echoed: "Yes, yes, this Liang peel, the grievances are not reported, they sit and eat every day and wait for death, and the case is not tried, and you still say how good you have done, and you laugh to death." ”
These people are not afraid of death, seeing that now that the five princes are coming, they have all stood up one by one, they have been bullied for a long time and they can't care about anything at the moment, they just want to pull this Liang County Order off the horse, so that there may be a glimmer of hope for their lives.
Liang Xian Ling saw that these townspeople were verbally attacking him like crazy, and he was both angry and scared in his heart, afraid that the five princes would not believe them if they would hear it, he glanced at him in a high position subtently, but he couldn't see the slightest information from his face.
Shang Jingcheng glanced at Liang County Ling coldly, and then asked, "Liang County Order, what else do you have to say?" ”
"Yes, yes, the lower officials are wronged, these people are all bought by the woman to harm the lower officials, the fifth prince, the lower officials are really not that kind of people, all these years as officials have been sincere and sincere, hard-working, how can the lower officials do these things that harm the people? The five princes, the lower officials are wronged! Liang Xianling said loudly, just afraid that the five princes would not believe it.
Shang Jingcheng saw that he didn't admit it, his face sank, he slapped the table, pointed at him and shouted: "Liang Wei! Do you think I can't find out what you've done? Now that you have aroused the anger of the heavens and the people, you are still pretending to be pitiful here, Si Hao, bring me all the evidence. "It's not like the dark guard hasn't done anything in the past two days, and it's not difficult to find out about him.
Liang Xianling saw a large pile of documentary evidence thrown in front of him, he was so frightened that the whole person softened there, and hurriedly shouted while squinting: "The five princes spare their lives, the five princes spare their lives, the lower officials don't dare anymore, don't dare anymore!" "This is a fatal thing, maybe he is going to raid his house, can he not beg for mercy?
Shang Jingcheng ignored him, nodded to Si Hao and said, "Bring someone up." ”
Si Hao nodded, turned around and went out.
Liang Xianling looked at him with a puzzled expression, not understanding who he was going to bring, could it be a witness? No, now that he has all the evidence and physical evidence, there is no need to find any more witnesses, so what is the matter? Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the spring flower on the side, and remembered her words, and couldn't help but tremble, could it be......
As soon as he thought about this, he was frightened by a figure suddenly thrown at his feet, only to see that his son-in-law Huang Shan was thrown beside him by a big bundle of flowers, his nose and face were swollen, and he dared to be beaten for a while.
"Father-in-law, help!" When Huang Shan saw clearly that kneeling beside him was his biggest backer, his father-in-law, he immediately shouted loudly, he was targeted by gangsters as soon as he went out this morning, not only beat him severely, but also tied him up and locked him in a dark room, which was full of rats, so frightened that he peed his pants several times.
As soon as Liang Xianling was about to speak, he was caught in his nose by a pungent smell of urine, and he quickly covered his mouth and moved a few steps to the side, only then did he stare at him with disgust.
Huang Shan looked at his father-in-law's expression, thinking that he refused to save himself, so he shouted excitedly: "Father-in-law, don't forget that I still have evidence of your greed and lawlessness, if you don't untie the rope on my body again, I will sue you to the court!" ”
