Li Zhong stiffened his neck and said: "The county lord doesn't have to threaten the slave, how can the slave be regarded as the lady's dowry steward, if you want to deal with it, you should also ask for the consent of the lady, as the saying goes, it depends on the master to beat the dog!" ”

"Oh...... You mean that you only recognize my mother as your master, and neither this palace nor the Bai family is your master, right? Bai Mu Hibiscus was not angry, and asked idly.

Li Zhong snorted, although he didn't say it explicitly, but that's what he meant. He didn't believe that a little girl could do anything to herself, it was nothing more than to scare and beat a few boards, and he still endured it, once he told the truth, he would definitely die.

Not to mention Bai Hibiscus, even his wife will not let him go, so Li Zhong is already determined not to confess honestly, he has eaten bitter flesh, and his wife will give him benefits and appease him.

The corners of Bai Mujian's mouth hooked up a cruel smile, and said: "Since you are unwilling to tell the truth, this palace has also given you enough opportunities, pull me down and stuff charcoal into his mouth, anyway, it's useless for him to keep this mouth!" ”

"You...... If you want to take care of people's lives, aren't you afraid of lawsuits? Li Zhong said angrily, he planned to suffer a little, but it didn't mean that he could endure this kind of suffering, the charcoal gagged his mouth, and he didn't want to talk in this life.

He eats with this mouth, if he has no mouth, what else can he do in the future? Ten years of pampering and pampering made him unable to do any rough work, and he raised a bunch of fat meat, which was even more old than the old man.

Bai Hibiscus beckoned again, the mandarin duck took out a stack of things, Bai Hibiscus fell in front of Li Zhong, and said, "This is evidence that you fornicated with other shops and betrayed your master, and there are ...... This is evidence that you robbed the people's girls and killed three women, I don't think I need to say more, right? ”

"You...... How did you get these things? Li Zhong was so frightened that his face turned pale, because he relied on the support of the Duchess of Guo behind him, he had indeed done these bastard things, he thought he had hidden his tail, but he didn't expect to find a handle for Bai Hibiscus.

Li Zhong knew that he was finished, those things were there, and his life was no longer his own.

Li Zhong glanced at Bai Hibiscus, and realized that this girl was not as harmless as she seemed on the surface, she had already made complete preparations, maybe everyone present had already fallen into her hands.

Li Zhong looked at the hot charcoal and understood that it was swallowed for nothing, and Bai Hibiscus would still not let him go, unless she could get what she wanted from her mouth.

Li Zhong thought about his family, he only relied on himself to support him, if he didn't have him, the family would not be able to live.

"County master, the slave is willing to tell the truth, and beg the county master to give the slave a chance to make up for it!" Li Zhong kowtowed heavily to the ground.

Bai Mujin didn't seem to intend to give him this opportunity, but instead swept his eyes at the kneeling people who were silent, and said, "This palace doesn't have so much patience, and I pry open your mouths one by one, so ...... Now give all of you a chance, since you can be a steward and naturally write, I will give you a pen and paper, you will explain how you lost the money, how to help others bring down the Zhuangzi shop that your mother married, and sign and draw, I will let you go, otherwise you will ......"

Before Bai Muhibiscus finished speaking, the mandarin duck led the other two girls to put the pen and paper in front of the steward one by one, and left red cinnabar.

Cold sweat broke out on the foreheads of those people, they could do things for so many years, none of them were stupid, and they knew that the county lord had just taught Li Zhong that he was killing chickens to show the monkeys, warning them that if they were as stubborn as Li Zhong, they would end up in the same situation.

"Oh...... If you don't want to write, it doesn't matter, this palace will explain Jing Zhaoyin to greet you well, he has a way to make people speak the truth, and I don't have to collect your evidence one by one, I just say that you will collectively come to assassinate this palace today, it's enough! Bai Mu Hibiscus said with a grin, as if he was chatting with the stewards to pass the time.

Bai Mu Hibiscus saw that they were all frightened and turned white, and then said: "You don't have to worry that this palace has no evidence, because the words of this palace are evidence, Jing Zhaoyin is a smart person, what kind of crime will be given to you, he is afraid that he is more experienced than this palace, what is the crime of assassinating the county lord?" ”

Mama Rui said very cooperatively: "All over the house!" ”

"Oh...... That's good, and the palace doesn't worry about the people in your family starving to death because they don't have the money you earn, so it's a grace from the palace! Bai Mujian breathed a sigh of relief as he spoke, as if he was relieved.

"You...... You are framed, you have no evidence! Qin Hai seemed to be the calm one among them, and he was not completely frightened, and argued with reason.

Bai Mujin nodded and said very gratefully: "Mama Rui, people say that we don't have evidence, hurry up and give him the evidence!" ”

"Yes......" Saying that, Mama Rui took out a dagger from her cuff and stuffed it into Qin Hai's hand, and then hurriedly shouted loudly: "There are assassins......

While shouting, he retreated in front of Bai Mu Hibiscus, ready to be on guard.

Qin Hai was so frightened that he almost broke his guts, looked at the dagger in his hand, as if it had been burned, threw it far away, and said in a panic: "This ...... This is what you shoehorned into me, and it has nothing to do with me! ”

"Steward Qin, let's take a look, is this dagger familiar? The work is so fine and beautiful, and there are marks on the handle! Bai Hibiscus kindly reminded.

Steward Qin picked it up again and looked at it, and found that it was indeed from his shop, but he was already a person who was not confused, and he was also well-informed, so he suppressed the panic in his heart and said, "This is ...... It doesn't mean anything, it can be sent by the county lord to buy it! ”

"You mean this palace framed you? All right...... I have a certificate, money release, do you want to be a witness for this palace? Bai Hibiscus asked the other man who bowed his head and said nothing.

Qian Fang was taken aback, he didn't expect it to be his turn, and hurriedly said: "The slave didn't ...... anything."

Before the words fell, Mama Rui shook a piece of paper in front of him, making him suddenly lose his voice, gritted his teeth, and said hatefully: "The slave saw it, Steward Qin intended to assassinate the county lord!" ”

"You...... Qian Fang, you open your eyes and talk nonsense, blood spurts people, you can't die well! Qin Hai scolded angrily.

Qian Fang hung his head helplessly, he didn't want to, who let the county lord hold his biggest handle in his hands, he loved to gamble the most in his life, and he didn't know what was going on a few days ago, and he lost all of a sudden, not only that, but he also lost his two legs.

They didn't cut off his legs on the spot, they only said that if he knew each other, these two legs could be stored on him, and if he didn't know each other, he would naturally come and pick them up at any time.

Now that the contract is in the hands of the county lord, he can only admit it, he finally knows that the county lord has made complete preparations today, and the people who are called in are the most powerful in the stewardship, and they are also the most shameful in front of the Lu family. They must have all been pinched by the county lord, and they were just teasing them if they went first!

"Don't say it, hurry up and write, why don't you have a clear mind!" Qian Fang said with some hatred, so he picked up the pen and began to write a confession on the paper.

"Money put...... Absolutely not, master, ......" Li Zhong saw that Qian Fang had compromised, and hurriedly wanted to stop it, although he was frightened by Bai Mu Hibiscus just now, he didn't plan to really betray the Lu family.

Mama Rui looked at him with a smile and asked, "Steward Li, this charcoal fire is still fine, do you want to try it?" ”

Li Zhong quickly shut up, his eyes began to glance out, Madame said that she would definitely come to save them, why has it been so long, and no one has been seen?

Bai Mujin glanced at him and kindly told him: "Steward Li, don't look at it, your master can't come, who in the Guogong Mansion dares to trespass on Yiqin Pavilion?" ”

In the past, there were still people in her Jinlan Yuan who were willing to give the Lu family some face, but now everyone in Yiqin Pavilion has eyes, and they all want to show their loyalty and earn performance, just in order to be appreciated by the county lord, and become a servant of the county lord's mansion in the future, who is willing to carry such a big master on his back, and also tie up a small duchess of the country!

Li Zhong looked at her in disbelief and said, "The minions are all Mrs. people, you can't touch us without permission, what are you...... This is disrespectful to Madame! ”

"Steward Li, your brain isn't burned out, is it? Did Mama Rui beat you up like a fool just now? This palace is the county lord, not to mention the duchess of the country, even my father, you have to respectfully call me the county lord, do you think your master can keep you? Bai Hibiscus shook his head and looked at Li Zhong like an idiot.

Li Zhong still refused to believe that no one in this national mansion could stop Bai Mujian now, and she had just been named the county lord, so where could she cover the sky with one hand.

Li Zhong said loudly: "County Lord, do you remember what you said in front of the Guogong Mansion, you said that as long as you dare to seek justice for yourself, even the emperor will make decisions for the people, although you are the county lord, you must also abide by the law of Tianyuan!" ”

"Tian Yuan Law? That's not the one who takes care of you dog minions, the sins you have committed one by one are enough for you to die ten times! Bai Hibiscus said mercilessly.

Li Zhong looked at the ruthlessness in Bai Mujian's eyes, and suddenly felt that his limbs were weak, and the pain in his mouth was numb, but the fear in his heart rose suddenly.

Bai Mujin didn't look at him, and continued: "You all have thought about it, and I will give you a stick of incense, if you can't write something that satisfies the palace, Jing Zhaoyin's cell is open for you, if you are innocent and have not violated the royal law, you will not be called in by the palace!" ”

These people suddenly understood why dozens of stewards had the "preferential treatment" of entering the house to talk, while everyone else was standing outside.

Originally, they all thought that it was because they were the most powerful and managed the most Zhuangzi and shops that they would be called in, but it turned out that it was because the county lord pinched their handle. In the past ten years, whether these people have been from the Lu family or not, they have been fed by her as their own dogs.
