Chapter 198: Back to the Black Cauldron
Qi San's face was ugly for a long time, and finally he said to Wang Xiancheng in disbelief: "Wang Xiancheng, you clearly said before that you called me to your home because you admired my talent, why don't you admit it now?" ”
Hearing him say this, not to mention Wang Xiancheng, even the rest of the people present also showed sneer.
"Your talent? Are you saying that you have not been able to pass the county exam many times? Wang Xiancheng said this, and smiled coldly.
Hearing Wang Xiancheng say this, Qi San was stunned on the spot, and looked at Wang Xiancheng with an incredulous expression.
Just now, he didn't understand why Wang Xiancheng didn't admit it, but now when he looked at the other party like this, he knew that everything before was calculated by the other party.
But I'm still stupid enough to help others
Thinking of this, he clenched his fists tightly, and he was so angry in his heart that he was about to stand up, but he was pressed down by several officials.
And the prefectural magistrate sitting above also frowned and slapped the table heavily.
When he saw that the person in front of him was facing him, he directly ignored it, and his face was a little unsightly.
said coldly: "Enough Qi San, you still dare to maliciously frame others, and why don't you quickly recruit everything you know from the truth, what is going on?" ”
Qi San's face was pale, and he wanted to explain something, but all the evidence pointed to him, and he wanted to cry without tears.
Wang Xiancheng said to the county order on the side:
"Can't you see it? It must be because this Qi San was jealous that Mo Xiuran was admitted to the county exam at a young age, and he himself failed to pass the exam many times, so he felt resentful in his heart, so he wanted to kill Mo Xiuran. It's just that in order not to take responsibility for himself, he wants to climb me and let me carry this black cauldron. ”
Thinking of this, he sighed helplessly and said:
"It's really that the subordinates have too good tempers on weekdays, so they are used by people with hearts."
The county magistrate didn't answer after hearing him, and looked at him deeply.
Wang Xiancheng's face did not change, and he still looked back.
After a long time, the county magistrate looked away, and looked at Qi Sandao with an angry face:
"Qi San, is there anything else to explain?"
Qi San was about to speak when he heard this, but Wang Xiancheng said on the side:
"Qi San, you have to think clearly before you say it, if it is an attempted murder, it will only sentence you to some prisons, and if you add a false accusation against an official, then it will be a crime of one more degree, and it may be possible to behead the capital directly at that time."
There was a bit of threat in Wang Xiancheng's joking tone.
However, Qi San, who originally planned to tell what Wang Xiancheng had done, was stunned after hearing Wang Xiancheng's words.
He couldn't hear that Wang Xiancheng meant to threaten himself.
If he really said everything that Wang Xiancheng had done, not only might he not be able to convict Wang Xiancheng, but he might also be accused of framing court officials, and he would be guilty of one more crime.
Thinking of this, he clenched his fists, his eyes were full of anger, but he was helpless.
In the end, he could only clench his fists unwillingly, raised his head and said to the county magistrate:
"My lord, the grass people admit that the grass people are indeed jealous of Mo Xiuran's talent, so they came up with the idea of killing, this matter has nothing to do with other people, and I also ask the county magistrate to investigate."
Hearing him say this, Meng Lianyi's brows furrowed suddenly.
And Mo Xiuran also looked at Qi San with an angry face.
Both of them saw what happened just now, and they obviously watched that Wang Xiancheng threatened him again, and then Qi San changed his statement.
So he looked at the county order with some displeasure, not knowing how the other party would judge.
And the county order is also frowning, and his face is not good-looking.
After a long while, he finally slapped the shocked wood and said: "Since this matter was done by Qi San, then it has nothing to do with Wang Xiancheng, since this is the case, the consequences of this matter are borne by Qi San alone." ”
Qi San was imprisoned.
And after the county magistrate finished his sentence, he directly ordered several officials to come forward.
Several officials immediately stepped forward, dragged Qi San up, and then pulled him out.
Qi San's face was pale, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he could only be pulled out with his head down.
This scene happened so fast that everyone was a little surprised.
Especially Mo Xiuran, who thought that the county order would help him make his own decisions.
When he learned of the result, his face turned cold.
Silent for a long time without speaking, originally he had always believed that the county magistrate was a clean official, but he was a little uncertain about the scene in front of him and looked at it.
Seeing Mo Xiuran like this, Meng Lianyi also touched his head in distress and said, "
"In fact, sometimes you can't judge a person's quality from black and white alone, the county magistrate is actually a good official, but he doesn't have the final say in the affairs of this officialdom."
Although Nawang County Cheng is only a county Cheng, but because he is a native of Qingshui County, the power in his hands has accumulated a lot over the years.
Compared with the county commander, he may be more than equal, so he has been the county magistrate for so many years, and there is no way to directly convict him.
So being able to deal with it like this is already the best result.
Thinking of this, he sighed, touched Mo Xiuran's head, and sighed soothingly.
After this matter was over, Meng Lianyi was about to leave with Mo Xiuran.
But just as the two were about to leave, Wang Xiancheng's voice suddenly came from behind them.
"Mrs. Meng, please wait a minute."
Hearing Wang Xiancheng's shout, Meng Lianyi hurriedly turned around and saw Wang Xiancheng walking towards him.
As soon as he saw Meng Lianyi, he hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled at Meng Lianyi, and then said:
"Today's incident is really Qi San's fault, I didn't expect that person to be so shameless, and he couldn't pass the test, even if he didn't pass the exam, he actually wanted to murder Mo Xiuran because he was jealous of others, fortunately he didn't encounter a threat to your safety this time, otherwise maybe this official was also implicated, in the end, this matter also has something to do with me, so I want to come over and apologize to Meng Lianyi."
Hearing him say this, Meng Lianyi frowned, and then said with a cold face:
"So you mean to say that you didn't tell Qi San to do this? Instead, Qi San spontaneously appeared at the intersection and tried to kill me and Mo Xiuran. ”
Hearing Meng Lianyi say this, Wang Xiancheng actually nodded directly: "That's right, didn't the county magistrate already interrogate it clearly just now?" That's exactly what happened. ”
He said that he smiled, looked at Meng Lianyi's eyes with a calm expression, and did not show any flaws.
