Chapter 28 Chapter 28 The Means of the Luo County Order
Seeing Zhou Xu being dragged down by the officials to play the board, Steward Peng felt sad that the rabbit was dead and the fox was dead.
But he suddenly sensed it, and turned his head to see that Li Duyu and Luo Xianling were looking at each other with smiles on their faces at the same time.
At this moment, Butler Peng suddenly felt like a little chicken, facing the two old foxes, giving what he wanted.
Unstable, the housekeeper Peng smiled and said, "Luo County Order, are you okay?" ”
"Are you alright?" Luo Xian Ling sneered: "Your business has just begun. ”
Luo Xian Ling was shocked and shouted: "Steward Peng, this official will make it clear to you first: you can explain honestly yourself, and this official can still be lightly punished, but if you are not honest, don't blame this official for being ruthless!" ”
The housekeeper Peng, who calmed down, immediately shouted: "Lord Mingjian, this is not about the grass people, what do the grass people explain?" ”
"Looks like you're still lucky, okay! This official convinces you. Bring witnesses! ”
At this time, Li Duyu has completely seen it, and he also has a deeper understanding of Luo County's brazenness and downline.
Four people were brought in at once, but only the killer was wearing shackles.
Li Duyu was a little confused: Isn't it only the assassin who survived? What's going on with the other three?
Luo Xianling pointed to the only woman among the four witnesses: "You speak first." ”
The woman said that she had heard how the two sides bargained, how they agreed, and so on......
“…… The slave was in the next door at the time, and although he didn't see it with his own eyes, the slave was scared to death, and he still remembered their voices. ”
This thing has a nose and an eye, although there are differences in details, but most of them are correct.
So much so that after hearing this, Butler Peng really thought that the other party was next door at that time.
But Li Duyu immediately decided: This woman is.
This is paying for a killer to kill someone, and you think this is an ordinary deal, you can bargain?
"Do you want to hear his voice again, can you hear it?"
"Yes!"
Luo Xianling smiled at Butler Peng: "How is it, Butler Peng, do you tell you honestly?" ”
"I haven't done it, what do you explain?"
As soon as Butler Peng's words fell, the lady pointed at him, and screamed in horror as she stepped back: "It's him!" That's him! ”
"Fart!" Peng's housekeeper was furious: "How could Lao Tzu hire a murderer?" It must be that you took his good advantage and framed Lao Tzu, you wait, this matter is not over with you! ”
The woman's face turned pale: "Lord Qingtian, arrest him quickly, otherwise he will kill the slave." ”
"Smack!"
Luo Xian Ling was shocked, pointed at Peng's housekeeper and scolded: "The surname Peng, you actually dare to threaten witnesses in front of your own official, so bold!" ”
"The official put his words here today, and if these four witnesses have any accidental casualties in the future, the official will count them on your head."
Although Li Duyu was angry on his face, he praised this woman in his heart!
Woman, sure enough, is a natural actor.
I also sighed for Luo County's ability to have such an organizational ability in a hurry: corrupt officials are often very capable, but they just took the wrong path.
There's a huge flaw in this; It's the middle of the night, how could it be so coincidental to find four witnesses so quickly?
Fortunately, Zhou Xu had already been sent down to play the board before, otherwise, with his many years of career as a lawyer and rich experience, he could expose this woman's lies in a few words.
With this woman's brick-throwing and jade, coupled with Luo County's partiality, the other two witnesses fell into the well normally.
The face of the housekeeper Peng became paler and paler, and the counterattack became more and more powerless, and the color of the weakness of the heart was clear at a glance.
It was the last killer's turn to come forward, and with just one sentence, he smashed the last trace of luck from Butler Peng!
"Old man, cross the bridge right, walk steadily, but don't let us finish, but if we can't receive the final payment, then your family will have to give you a funeral!"
Others couldn't understand this, but as soon as Steward Peng heard it, cold sweat flowed down, his eyes were full of disbelief, and his lips trembled for a long time before he spit out a sentence: "You...... You're not dead? ”
Because this was after the butler Peng made a deal with the killer, when he left, he accidentally touched the table leg and almost fell, and the killers laughed at what he said, and it was the killer in front of him who said it.
It is impossible for an outsider to remember this.
The killer smiled bitterly and shook his head at Butler Peng, apologizing for betraying his employer.
Butler Peng was frightened, and sat on the ground with his buttocks, so that people could know what was going on at a glance.
"Butler Peng, what else do you have to say now?"
Butler Peng looked at Luo Xianling, and then at the killer, and suddenly got up and pounced on the killer.
"Didn't you promise again and again that if you missed, you would kill yourself immediately? Why didn't you die? How can you not die...... The old man fought with you untrustworthy bastards......"
"Come on! Put the surname Peng in prison and keep him under strict guard! After the official reports, he will be asked and beheaded after the autumn. ”
It is necessary to be put in prison and strictly guarded, but what if someone robs the prison?
But it's basically impossible to ask the queen of autumn.
Blackmailing the Peng family is the most important thing.
What's more, according to the normal process, if you report it, you have to send it to the mansion first, and the iron relationship between the people of the mansion and the Peng family is known to the officialdom.
Next, it depends on how much the Peng family is willing to spend to save the loyal housekeeper.
