"Zhao Dianshi, what do you say?" asked the county lord while touching the silver ingot in the box with one hand. The silver ingots were shining and bright, and the people were dumbfounded, and at the same time, they couldn't help but think in their hearts, if I gave me so much silver, how long would I be able to spend it, a lifetime, or two lifetimes?

Zhao Dianshi was already out of soul at this time, looking at his feet blankly. Still didn't say a word, in fact, he didn't say a word from the moment he entered the door, including his parents, wife and children, all kneeling on the ground at this time.

His wife and children were crying and did not dare to speak.

The old mother was also crying and did not dare to speak.

The old father was scolding, scolding his classic son.

"I raised you for your education and made you an official, is it just..." His son has been a very obedient and well-behaved child since he was a child, and when he grows up, he reads and examines talents, and he is deeply liked by his teachers and classmates.

But...

How to explain this large box of silver?

"Why don't you die!" The old father, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly jumped up with a cane that didn't look like an old man, and smashed it towards his son's head with a cane.

Zhao Dianshi didn't know how to hide at all, so this crutch was on Zhao Dianshi's head.

Zhao Dianshi's blood flowed down his face and he fell to the ground.

The old father is still to continue fighting.

was pulled by the reacting officer.

"Presumptuous!" the county lord shouted angrily: "You old man, do you want to kill your son?"

"My son is not successful, and he does something hurtful to heaven and reason, why can't I kill him as a father?" the old father struggled and was about to come up and continue to fight.

"He is still an official of the imperial court, don't say that he is an official of the imperial court, even if he is a cloth official, even if he commits the crime of beheading, then he will have to be judged by the court, how can he allow the law to be practiced in a private house?" said the county lord, motioning to the official to drive his wife and children back to the house.

The head catcher stepped forward to check Zhao Dianshi, and said, "My lord, Zhao Dianshi is fine, but he fainted, his head was broken, and he will wake up in a while." ”

The county said: "Escort Zhao Wei back, and there is silver." ”

Then, Feng Shan beckoned, and seven or eight Cao Gang men stepped forward, lifted the box, and walked towards the county office.

The county looked at these big men, and suddenly said, "It's like a person on the green forest road." ”

Chen Letian laughed and said: "My lord is really discerning, they are all members of the Cao Gang, I have a friend who knows the Cao Gang here, so I will borrow it unceremoniously." ”

The county man nodded and didn't say much. Green Forest Road has never been recognized by the government, at least on the surface. But whether it is a dart game on land or a boat gang on the water, it is more or less stained with the smell of green forest. In other words, strictly speaking, these people are breaking the law and discipline. But the county is only up to the point, and it makes no sense to say too much.

Because everyone knows that it is not these strong gangs who should be arrested and killed, but the leaders who lead these gangs to do evil, and the gangs are at most accomplices who are instructed by others.

The officials recorded everything that should be recorded at the scene, and everyone continued to the next one.

The second family is the Iron Prison Leader's family, because his family is the closest to Zhao Dian's family.

At the iron cell leader's house, everyone buried a pit two feet in a radius and two feet deep under the stove. The iron cell head buried the silver directly in the hole, and this time the burial was not deep, and it was estimated that the iron cell head was easy to take, so it was buried very shallow. In the time of a stick of incense, all the silver was dug out. It was piled up in a heap on the ground, estimated to be several thousand taels.

The iron cell leader is studying in other places, and he and his wife are alone at home. My wife didn't know what was going on at first, so she guarded the pit and didn't let people dig it.

No one can say anything.

It is illegal to say that the money is obtained by the iron cell boss for fornication with bandits, and now that the county lord has come to try the case, you get out of the way, if you don't let it again, you will be convicted of the crime with the iron cell boss.

The wife didn't pay attention to it at all, and she would bite whoever came up.

The county Cheng came up and said that it was not good, and scolded the county Cheng, saying that the county Cheng was a corrupt official and corrupt official, and he was corrupt and bent the law and blamed the old man of my family. The county's face was red and white, but he was helpless.

In the end, Chen Letian couldn't help but laugh and said: "Old man, you see that there is a silver ingot there, I don't know if it's your family." As he spoke, he pointed to the other corner of the kitchen, and sure enough, there was a piece of broken silver, and the sunlight shone through the window, shining brightly.

My wife's eyes lit up, and she immediately walked over to get the silver. Before he could get to the silver, Feng Shan picked up the silver and threw it out the window, and the old woman glanced at Feng Shan and immediately chased him out.

"Excavation. Chen Letian gave an order, and the officials did not wait for the county to order, and immediately began to dig.

Chen Letian saw that the old woman's consciousness didn't seem to be normal, and she was very wealthy, so it was useless to say anything, so she could only use this kind of method.

Xiancheng thought to himself, you are also a crooked talent.

This second family is much more familiar with the road.

In addition, there is not much silver, and it is estimated that at most I am afraid that I will not even have one-tenth of the silver of Zhao Dianshi.

Under the leadership of the two officials, the Cao Gang went to the county government again with silver and iron jail.

The situation of the iron cell head is different from Zhao Dianshi, the iron cell head cried with snot and tears about his miserable life experience, his helplessness, saying that he was forced by the Iron Head Gang, and he didn't want to share it with the Iron Head Gang at all.

The county said: "This will be said in the hall, now you should shut up." This official has been an official for many years, and I have never heard of corrupt officials and corrupt officials who are forced to be corrupt. ”

And then the third, the fourth, the fifth...

By the time the sun went down, there were already ten of them.

All of these ten families were stolen and seized, and none of them had a silver location that was not in Chen Letian's pleadings. The more the county lord dug in, the more frightened he became, and he couldn't help but think, what kind of ability does this Chen Letian have, and he knows these people thoroughly, not only knowing which people are colluding with the Iron Head Gang, but also knowing the specific location of the silver so clearly. They had to start preparing at least a few months ago, and they had to have a lot of local landlords to help, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to accomplish so many and such complicated things.

"My lord, I'm afraid I won't be able to finish it today. Chen Letian looked at the official who counted the silver taels, and whispered to the county next to him.

The county Cheng's attitude towards Chen Letian at this time has become more and more respectful, if it weren't for the fact that this is outside, in front of the people in the yamen, and the people, the county Cheng would have already been on an equal footing with Chen Letian, and the title of classmate Chen would have to be changed to Chen Gongzi. But this is outside, even if the county doesn't care about his face, he has to take care of the face of the court, and said, "What does classmate Chen think?"
