As soon as their words came out, Governor Li's face changed, he didn't expect these people to be frightened by a few words.

"In the public court, no nonsense!" Li Zhifu slapped the shocked wood, and the body of the kneeling person in the hall shook violently, but he still said: "My lord, wronged, we were really persecuted by Wang Quan." ”

They knew that the mastermind behind this matter was actually Li Zhifu, and when they opened their mouths, everyone looked at Li Zhifu differently, and Li Zhifu, who looked at him with that kind of eyes, was weak for a while, and he didn't dare to raise his head at all.

"Nonsense!" Wang Quan snorted coldly, turned around and knelt down directly towards Governor Li's mansion, and begged for mercy in a panic: "My lord, I was wronged by them, please be sure to find out this matter clearly." "At this time, they are grasshoppers on a rope, and no one can escape.

Wang Quan's words made Governor Li come back to his senses, and he was shocked again, "That's right, this official will definitely find out about this matter." His gaze fell on Zhong Liyu, his eyes full of cruelty. But in front of everyone's eyes, he didn't dare to do anything to Zhong Liyu at all, especially since these things were all led by him, because in addition to being shocked, his heart was still a little empty.

"Then check, first find out the identity of these robbers, although the adults carried them away just now, we have all seen their true faces. I don't believe that they will have no accomplices if they can sneak into the city and send their families in! How could Zhong Liyu give him time to find a way to deal with them, he said directly.

At this time, a group of people who were dizzy outside finally came back to their senses and reached out and slapped their thighs fiercely, didn't they? They didn't even find out just now that the family members of these thieves were arrested by Governor Li's mansion so quickly, doesn't that mean that these people have already sneaked into the city and lived under their noses?

And just when everyone was talking, someone suddenly stood up. "I know, I know!"

Everyone looked at the man, and saw the other party's eyes shining as they pointed to the families of the thieves kneeling in front of them begging for mercy, and quickly spoke, "I said, why are they so familiar? They live in the East Street of Canggu City, where my relatives are, and I saw them when I went there two days ago! ”

The commotion was much bigger than before, and there were two of them, and someone threw a splash directly into the hot oil pot, "I also remember, just now I also said that the dead people are so familiar, it turns out that he was wearing the clothes of the official before, and now he is wearing regular clothes, I didn't even notice it." ”

"That's right, as soon as you say it, I only think about it now, they seem to be officials!"

……

Governor Li looked at the people in front of him pointing at him with a pale face, and immediately swallowed his saliva fiercely, and wanted to open his mouth but found that his throat was blocked, and he didn't know what to say.

And the family members of the bandits kneeling below seized the opportunity and kept kowtowing to Governor Li's mansion, "Our son is a servant!" Yesterday I said I was going to do something for the prefect. ”

"Yes, our father-in-law also said the same, and said that after doing this, the prefect will definitely have a reward."

……

And Zhong Liyu naturally refused to let go of this opportunity, he snorted coldly, "They are the servants here, I don't know what else Governor Li has to say?" ”

Zhong Liyu's words made Governor Li and everyone present stunned, they didn't expect that the so-called robber turned out to be a servant. What does this mean?

Everyone didn't speak, but everyone knew it.

At the same time, everyone's eyes on Governor Li also became different, especially the powerful people in the city who were more closely related to the Zhong family, and the eyes of Governor Li were even more strange, they didn't expect that the dignified Governor would let his servants pretend to be robbers to assassinate a farmer.

For a while, Governor Li felt that he had lost all his face in his life. The most frightening thing was that he not only felt that the black gauze hat on his head was difficult to preserve, but also felt that his life was coming to an end.

Zhong Liyu stood in the crowd and waited for everyone's emotions to brew before he spoke: "The facts show that this matter is clearly directed and acted by Governor Li, Governor Li, why do you want to target our Zhong family?" ”

Facing Zhong Liyu's questioning, Governor Li opened his mouth, but he couldn't say a word.

"Yes, this matter was asked by the prefect to be done by the minister-in-law, and my father-in-law is right, he just acted according to his orders." There are also smart people kneeling on the ground, who have already understood what Zhong Liyu meant, and said quickly.

Governor Li was forced to fidget, he looked at Wang Quan on the side, Wang Quan had to stand up and said: "Slandering the imperial court officials is punishable, are you sure you can bear it?" ”

"Then as an official of the imperial court, you can act like Governor Li?" Old Mr. Wei snorted coldly, stood up and said, since he appeared here, he and Governor Li have already been enemies, and at this time, he must do his best to speak for the Zhong family.

Moreover, he has been an official for so many years, and he has never seen such an arrogant parent official.

"Who are you to dare to speak like that?" Wang Quan used to be a showman, but he never got into the Jinshi, so he became a staff member by the side of Li Zhifu, Wang Quan's eyes were full of disdain, which made Xu Ze speechless for a while, he said indifferently: "Hmph, I won't change my name, I won't change my surname, Wei Qian." ”

Hearing this name, everyone was stunned, about Wei Qian, everyone had more or less heard of it, after all, this was an example for poor students to strive for, and suddenly, everyone's eyes changed when they looked at him.

"Wei Qian?" Wang Quan was stunned for a moment, how could he be here? This kind of big official would actually appear in a place like a border city? Is this a joke?

Wang Quan snorted coldly, "Anyway, no one of us here has ever seen Xu Ze, who knows if you are impersonating." "This kind of thing, Governor Li will do it, and the people of the Zhong family can naturally follow suit.

"The old man is really not afraid to say a wild word, who dares to pretend to be me Wei Qian?" Xu Ze snorted coldly, his tone full of disdain. I think that when the first emperor was there, as the imperial history, he even dared to scare the emperor, what kind of things are these people?

The words that were full of momentum overwhelmed the people present.

Mr. Wei glanced at the people present, and finally said to Governor Li: "Since you said that this matter was caused by the second son of Zhong, you also asked the second son of Li to take the second son of Zhong out and try it in front of everyone." It's right and wrong, so I can give you an explanation. ”

At the mention of this, a trace of emptiness flashed on Governor Li's face.

Ever since he heard that Zhong Liyu had brought people to make trouble, he sent people to the prison to force Zhong Li to confess and be detained. At this time, I am afraid that I have already used the punishment, and bringing her up at this time will not do him any good.

Seeing that Governor Li was unmoved, Mr. Wei raised his eyebrows and said coldly: "Lord Prefect, what are you doing in your heart?" ”

These words made Governor Li's face change, and he said angrily: "Mr. Wei, although you are talented, you must be responsible for saying this. Although you have been an official for decades, I am the one who is sitting here and holding the shocking wood now! ”

"Are you weak-hearted? So the thief shouts to catch the thief? If not, then bring someone up. Old Mr. Wei was not moved by his threat in the slightest, and his expression was still faint.

"That's right, bring Zhong Ergongzi up!" Onlookers shouted.

"Bring the second son up, bring the second son up!" The neat shouting made it difficult for Li Zhifu to ride the tiger, and he had to keep his face calm and ask Wang Quan to bring people up.

After Wang Quan left, Zhong Liyu's hands clenched nervously, and she waited for Zhong Li's arrival nervously.

The others were not idle, and they all craned their necks and waited until Zhongli.

At this time, Zhao Yiyan received the news and was on his way back.

When he heard that Zhongli had been arrested by the prefect, he immediately exuded a terrifying aura all over his body, as if he was a killing god from hell.

Above the public court, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Zhongli was finally brought up by two officials, but at this time, her whole body was covered with red blood, which looked shocking.

Seeing Zhong Li like this, Zhong Liyu was immediately angry, she clenched her fists to resist the urge to pounce on Zhong Li, and angrily pointed at Li Zhifu and said, "What a parent official, is this how you are beaten into a trick?" ”

"Master Zhong, you can't talk nonsense." Governor Li's gloomy face made him look like a demon, and the matter had come to this point, he could only go on hard, "Zhong Ergongzi is determined to refuse to admit his crimes, and it is also essential to get some small punishments." ”

Zhong Liyu was distressed and wanted to touch Zhongli, who was injured all over his body, but he didn't dare to touch it. Zhongli has always been very strong, and this is the first time she has discovered that Zhongli is actually a fragile person.

"Second Prince Zhong is a good person, I didn't expect Governor Li to be careless of people's lives!" Someone in the crowd was upset about Zhongli.

"That's it, I also heard that Governor Li arrested Zhong Ergongzi's Liugongzi, just to take the Liuli Factory of Zhong's Ergongzi's family as his own, but the Ergongzi had expected it, and the family personally smashed the Liuli Factory, and now that the Ergongzi is beaten like this, he must be annoyed and angry."

"That's it, such a person can also be a parent official, and the future of the people of my Canggu City is worrying."

"That's it."

“……”

For a while, all kinds of discussions were endless, and in the ears of Li Zhifu, it was like being hit by a stone, which made him bored, and seeing that what they said was getting more and more outrageous, Li Zhifu said coldly: "Quiet! ”

With this shout, everyone stopped talking.

"Governor Li, although you are the prefect, you can't careless of people's lives like this." Someone in the crowd shouted.

Governor Li, who was under all kinds of pressure, was out of breath, his eyes fell on the dying Zhongli, and he snorted coldly: "I will definitely find out about this matter, now Zhongli is the final criminal and must be brought back and imprisoned." As soon as the words fell, the two depressed immediately went up and escorted Zhong Li, who seemed to be soaked in blood, Zhong Liyu's face changed, and he rushed over to protect Zhong Li in his arms, and at the same time, the people who were watching outside were not idle. Relying on the large number of people, they all squeezed in, squeezing the originally small public court.

At this time, it was impossible for the official to think that Zhongli would leave.

Governor Li was frightened by such a battle, and he had also served as a prefect in other places before. As long as those people are a little frightened, they will be obedient, but the people in this place are not ordinary and tough.

He slammed the startling wood in his hand and shouted, "Silence! ”

The loud noise calmed everyone down, but they still stared at Li Zhifu with dissatisfaction, and the look in that look at Li Zhifu was depressed.

"This is the public court, what kind of system are you making such a noise?" Governor Li shouted.

Old Mr. Wei snorted coldly and stood up at this time, "It turns out that Governor Li still knows about physique, so why didn't you think of physique when you asked the official to pretend to be a robber to kill people?" As a prefect, knowing the law and breaking the law, the crime is added to the first degree. Although the old man is not in the court now, but there is still a chance to fold, tomorrow morning, I will fold, quickly send it to the emperor's imperial case, please the emperor to see. ”

Mr. Wei's sharp words made Governor Li tremble, how could he forget that Mr. Wei still has this right?

But in front of everyone's eyes, he couldn't let Xu Ze brush his face, he knocked on the startling wood again, "Everyone is quiet, this official knows how to deal with this matter, and I hope everyone will go back first, we will deal with this matter tomorrow." ”

In the face of so many people, Governor Li felt that he had the heart to kill, but he couldn't show his true emotions, and this feeling actually drove him crazy.

They didn't care how they woke up Zhong Liyu, she snatched Zhong Li from the arms of the two servants and said painfully: "Second brother, you have suffered." There was a cry in his voice, and they all said that the man didn't flick when he had tears, but no one around said that he wasn't.

Zhongli's ability is clear to everyone, the Zhong family is almost supported by her alone, and now that the Zhong family is finally better, but something like this happened to her, as Zhongli's brother, she will definitely be sad. Seeing that Zhongli was covered in injuries, it was nothing to cry.

For a while, the whole court was noisy again.

Li Zhifu rubbed his faintly painful eyebrows, frowned, and said, "Quiet! ”

This loud shout made him exert all his strength, and everyone was calmed by this voice, and they all raised their eyes to look at him.

"Since you despise the royal law so much, then the official will let you all go to prison and punish you for the crime of gathering a crowd to make trouble!" was threatened by Governor Li's mansion, and many onlookers retreated.

They are just here to watch, and they don't want to go to jail, not to mention that the Chinese New Year is coming soon.

The people huddled together, you look at me, I look at you, and finally about half of them quit one after another.

"Master Zhong, before the matter is clarified, the second prince will still be imprisoned, if you are not happy, be careful that this official will punish you for a crime of obstructing official business." Governor Li smiled when he saw the threat, so he repeated the trick.

Zhong Liyu didn't even look at him, hugged Zhong Li's body in distress and said, "Second brother, it's the eldest brother who didn't protect you, it's the eldest brother who didn't protect you." The sad tone and self-reproachful words made everyone present uncomfortable.

Governor Li was irritated when he heard this, and was about to take Zhongli into custody by force, but at this moment, a rapid sound of horses' hooves came, and the startled wood raised by Governor Li suddenly slipped on the case, and his eyes showed horror.
