Chapter 18 Licking a dog is unreasonable
"+20 opinion, +90 reputation."
A hint appeared in Xu Chuan's mind, which showed that his inference was to completely suppress the people under the hall, even the seven or eight sons and brothers, including Luo Xingtang.
Is this a scam from start to finish?
Emotional hustlers? Killing others?
Fantastic.
"Miss, Miss, do you hear me, the adults said that Childe was framed." Xiao Fei shook Luo Pingping's body vigorously, almost breaking the latter's already thin body.
But Klo's flat eyes lit up. Brother was framed? Framed?
Zhang Qinglian's eyes quickly flashed a look of panic, but then she quickly calmed down, looked at Xu Chuan with a calm face, and said: "Your Excellency's inference is indeed unbelievable and breathtaking, but your Excellency said that I colluded with the Cheng family's jewelry shop, is there any evidence?" ”
"Yes, yes, my lord, the villain has never known this Miss Zhang." Cheng Peng knelt on the ground and said with trembling lips.
"Still hard-mouthed?" Xu Chuan snorted coldly: "You don't know each other? Witness Cheng Liu. ”
"Pass on the Liu Clan."
The head of the team escorted Cheng Liu's family to the hall, and whispered while going to the hall: "The words of the adults have been brought to you, to tell the truth, all the property of the Cheng family is yours, if you deceive, then Cheng Peng and Zhang Qinglian will fly away, and you will not be able to leave anything." ”
Cheng Liushi took a deep breath, and the scene of Zhang Qinglian and her husband discussing matters behind her back flashed in her mind, that slut had already hooked up with her husband, and the two got the silver this time, maybe they would divorce her and marry the slut.
Thinking of this, she nodded yes and walked into the lobby.
"Folk woman Liu Hongmei, meet your lord."
"Madame, what are you doing here?" Cheng Peng was shocked.
Zhang Qinglian also looked panicked.
The relationship between her and the Cheng family is only known to the Cheng family, but Cheng Peng will never betray her, the two are grasshoppers on a rope, and admitting it is a dead end.
But Cheng Liu's is different.
"What am I doing here? Summoned by adults, I naturally can't help but come, what, you negative thief, want to blackmail other people's money, so you divorce the old lady and marry that slut, I can't think of it, the sky has eyes, Lord Xu has already seen through your tricks. Cheng Liu's resentful eyes looked at Cheng Peng and Zhang Qinglian.
Cheng Peng's eyes widened: "You crazy woman, what are you talking nonsense?" ”
Xu Chuan smiled and said, "Liu Hongmei, are you Cheng Peng's wife?" ”
"Yes." Liu Hongmei nodded respectfully.
"Okay, the official asks you, can this Miss Zhang know the Cheng family?" Xu Chuan asked.
Liu Hongmei hurriedly said: "Don't dare to deceive adults, Zhang Qinglian, formerly known as Zhang Xue'er, is from another county, came to Ancheng County two years ago, and my father-in-law, that is, Cheng Song, partnered to do business, she is responsible for bringing customers to the jewelry shop, and my father-in-law deliberately increased the price of jewelry, and deceived those wronged leaders, just a few days ago, my father-in-law's body became more and more poor, so he came up with this poisonous plan, and deliberately entangled with him when he brought Luo Xingtang to buy jewelry..."
"You talk nonsense! Crazy, you talk nonsense! Cheng Peng roared angrily and threw himself at Liu Hongmei.
But as soon as his body moved, he was swept under his knees by two yacha on the side, his legs fell to the ground so weakly that his mouth hit the ground, and blood suddenly came out.
Liu Hongmei looked at her husband's appearance, she was afraid, and she had no husband and wife at all, and she became more and more resentful, so she explained in detail how they deceived others and how they harmed Luo Xingtang.
At this moment, there was an uproar, and Zhang Qinglian's face was like ashes, and her body shook and fell to the ground. Cheng Peng was even more powerless to lie there, like a dead dog.
It's over, it's all over.
Xu Chuan waited until Liu Hongmei finished speaking, then he slapped his hand and said, "Cheng Peng, Zhang Qinglian, you two still have something to say." ”
Cheng Peng got up from the ground and said, "My lord, my lord, this matter is planned by my father and Zhang Qinglian, and the villain is just assisting from the side, adults Mingjian, adults Mingjian." ”
Zhang Qinglian just sneered, sat there, and didn't say a word.
Xu Chuan frowned and looked at Cheng Peng: "Cheng Songzong is the mastermind, but you are the main culprit who is falsely accused, and it cannot be denied. ”
Master Wang hurriedly got up and said in a loud voice: "The laws of Great Xia clearly stipulate that false accusations should be punished the same as those who are falsely accused. ”
Cheng Peng's body trembled.
Xu Chuan nodded and said: "Cheng Peng, I heard it, you falsely accused Luo Xingtang of plotting to kill other people's lives, plotting to rob other people's property, and being ruthless, this crime should be punished, but you are indeed not the mastermind, this official will exempt you from the death penalty, betray you and exile you to labor, and go to Xiamingguan to move stones." ”
Xiaming Pass, that is the place closest to the twelve mountains of the demon beasts in the north of the nineteen states of Great Xia, it is extremely cold and bitter, it is said that the city wall there is a hundred zhang high, and there are many people who move stones to die.
"Adults spare their lives, adults spare their lives." Cheng Peng cried.
Xu Chuan waved his hand, and the yacha escorted Cheng Peng down.
Then he looked at Zhang Qinglian: "Zhang Qinglian, her real name is Zhang Xue'er." You teamed up with the Cheng family's jewelry laying bureau to defraud other people's property, and the official has to ask them now, but they have to be investigated. ”
Xu Chuan looked at the young men.
Li Xiaofu looked at Zhang Qinglian's soft and weak figure, and his heart suddenly rose with pity, and he sighed: "That's it, I am sincere to you, as for... My lord, I don't blame Miss Zhang. ”
"I'm not to blame."
"Don't blame her."
"She must have a hard time."
Said one by one.
Luo Xingtang opened his mouth and didn't say anything.
Their performance immediately attracted the scolding of a group of people outside the hall. It is said that this group of descendants is really blind and blinded by lard...
Xu Chuan listened to it but was a little more comfortable, and from a different angle, it was quite refreshing to see the people scolding others.
"Miss, it's okay, Childe didn't intercede for that slut." The maid Xiaofei said happily.
Luo Pingping was about to nod with relief, but saw that Luo Xingtang in the hall actually stepped forward, knelt beside Zhang Qinglian and said: "My lord, I am deceived by others, I am stupid, I don't want to pursue Miss Zhang's false accusation, please forgive me." ”
Luo Ping stomped his feet angrily.
Xu Chuan also choked on the corners of his mouth.
"Miss Zhang, you and I know each other, no matter what, I treat you sincerely, this time... I know you're not in this way, but maybe, you have your own troubles. Luo Xingtang also smiled at Zhang Qinglian.
What an infatuated lover who even if I die for you, I have no complaints.
Zhang Qinglian looked at him, the two looked at each other, and for a while it seemed that time was frozen, and the true feelings of no one around were revealed.
Xu Chuan looked at this scene, and could only say silently in his heart: "Lick the dog, lick the dog, lick until the last is nothing, you deserve to be pitted to death, who will you pit if you don't pit you?" ”
When the snow mountain swordsman who was about to pat his master's ass in the sea of Xu Chuan couldn't help but stick back his tongue that had just been spit out.
Licking the dog... Who is this talking about, master?
"It's not me, well, it's definitely not me."
……
"Ahem."
Church.
Xu Chuan coughed lightly, interrupting Luo Xingtang and Zhang Qinglian's gaze.
The two looked up.
Xu Chuan said: "Since the parties are not prosecuted..."
He was about to close the case, when suddenly an option popped up in his mind: "Sentence Zhang Qinglian not guilty, public opinion -50, prestige-10." Luo Xingtang's friendship +70. ”
"Sentenced Zhang Qinglian to a misdemeanor, +10 public opinion, +10 prestige. Luo Xingtang's opinion +30. ”
"Sentenced Zhang Qinglian to a felony, public opinion +50, prestige +50. Luo Xingtang's friendship is -10, and the current friendship is 60. ”
Xu Chuan was stunned. Not surprising that the option appears... It's the option this time, and there is no luck option? He's always relied on luck options to determine right and wrong.
Then it suddenly became clear that there was no luck option, which showed that no matter how he judged, he was right, and the difference between the trial was mainly public opinion and prestige... There is also the favorability of this Luo Xingtang.
Needless to say, public opinion, a few losers in the hall are soft-hearted and easy to deceive, and parents and family members outside are not easy to deceive. This kind of woman has seriously violated their family and should be severely punished!
The heavier the punishment, the more it can show that the county lord's law is strict and upright.
But what made Xu Chuan speechless the most was that if he sentenced this Zhang Qinglian heavily, Luo Xingtang would still complain about him? Make no mistake, he saved his life.
Licking the dog, it really can't be measured with common sense, it's unreasonable!
Case.
Of course, the official should focus on public opinion and prestige.
The people in the hall were waiting for Xu Chuan to announce the verdict, and Zhang Qinglian also heard Xu Chuan's tone loosen, although her face was still pale, but she was already happy in her heart.
"I was six years old to worship in" flower gate ", self-asked deception has entered the house, as long as you get together enough 100,000 taels of silver tickets, you can smoothly become a personal heir, I didn't expect to be planted in the hands of this Xu County Order, fortunately, these fools were fascinated by me, exonerate me. When you get out this time, you will leave this Ancheng County immediately and continue somewhere else, hum..."
She was thinking to herself.
Thinking about Xu Chuan, he paused, but the words changed and said: "Although the parties are not investigated, but you have done something illegal, but it is true, without you, how could the Cheng family take this sidepath, not only let several families suffer losses, but also want to deceive the official, how can the official spare you, betray you and Cheng Peng, exile and labor together, and go to Xiamingguan to move stones." ”
"This judgment will be submitted to the general judgment immediately, and it will be executed in the next day after the general judgment is approved."
"Luo Xingtang, you were framed, but you are obsessed, and the official has nothing to say, go back and reflect on yourself. Liu Hongmei pointed out that you have merit, and you should be rewarded, from now on, you will have nothing to do with the Cheng family, take good care of your children, and the rest of the people cannot be investigated afterwards. ”
Verdict.
Zhang Qinglian froze, exiled, forced labor? Moving stones? Why, why, obviously this dog official is relieved.
Luo Xingtang opened his mouth and couldn't speak.
Liu Hongmei was already grateful to Lord Qingtian, Xu Chuan's final verdict was obviously because she was afraid that those who had been deceived by the Cheng family would settle accounts after the autumn, then she would not have a stable life, now it's okay.
It's really a big man.
There was also a cheer outside the hall, and Luo Pingping and the maid Xiaofei were happily waving their little fists.
That Zhang Qinglian should be sentenced heavily!
Only Situ Advocate stood aside, the paper in his hand crumpled into a ball. I won't have a lawsuit with Xu Chuan in the future.
……
"It's funny, it's funny." Outside the county office, an old man with a wine gourd and a scimitar pinned to his waist looked at the verdict and grinned.
Next to him was a woman in red, and the woman in red stood there, her face like frost!
