Chapter 9: Pan Jinlian's Counterattack!
Wang Er's expression was stunned for a moment, and he glanced back and forth between Pan Jinlian and Wu Zhi, and his expression instantly changed color, "You...... You lied to me! ”
Pan Jinlian smiled, "As early as when I knew that you and Ximen Qing might smear me in the future, I was a little wary of you, you live in the mansion, even if you go out from the small gate, you are in a mess, and you don't even find out that someone is following you behind you, I know where you went, and I can naturally guess what happened later, so I will be arrested on the spot." ”
Wang Er's face was blue and white for a while, "The matter has come to this point, if you want to kill or chop, you can dispose of it." ”
"There's been no trust between us for a long time, and you don't have to worry about the past." He looked at Wu Zhi and closed his eyes.
However, Wu Zhi shook his head, and Pan Jinlian continued, "This matter has nothing to do with the officials, it is a way I came up with, and the officials have never turned their backs on the friendship between you." If I had wanted to arrest you, I would have already taken you through the back door with the gold in your hand, and I would not have chosen to do so in the dead of night, in the middle of the night. ”
The study was quiet, and there were only four people here. No movement could be heard outside.
It can be seen that they never thought of exposing Wang Er's guilt to the public in the first place.
Pan Jinlian continued, "You also know what the girl in the light curtain said, I believe that there is just a misunderstanding between you, and you are not bad people in nature. Your hometown was hit by a disaster, and since the official received your letter of worship that day, he has already begun to rent a new house for you in your hometown to temporarily settle your family, and also sent someone to bring Yinliang, although he did not say it, but he has already secretly arranged everything for you. ”
"He's not a man who cares about the past, and you shouldn't misunderstand him. The official has always cherished the friendship between you, even if the girl has revealed the future, but that incident has not happened yet, and there is still a remedy, you don't have prejudice against us because of this, as long as you are willing to believe in us, the trust between us will always be. The rift between you will be gone. ”
She glanced at the guards who were restraining Wang Er, and there were only three people left in the room.
Wang Er looked at the two of them with burning eyes, his eyes were moist, and one sentence dispelled all the doubts in his heart, and he hesitated, "Really? ”
"You really don't blame me?"
Pan Jinlian and Wu Zhi nodded, "Not only did I not blame you, but I also wanted to ask you for a favor." ”
She looked meaningfully at the gold dropped by Wang Er, "The plan will be calculated." ”
*
Pan Jinlian is extremely grateful for this light curtain that appeared out of thin air, she not only predicted the future, but also brought her unexpected new ideas. In the first 20 years, she was like an ordinary lady, following her father at home, learning piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, yearning for the life of husband and child, marrying and following her husband, and trying her best to take care of the house so that Wu Zhi would not worry about things at home.
The world in the backyard of a small party is like a cocoon that binds itself and draws the ground as a prison, and now, Ji Xi's words have completely taken her out of this cage, and she has begun to look at the bigger world.
In the past, she was a husband and a godson, but now, what she sees is Hua Mulan, who served in the army for her father, and Wu Zetian, who is in the sky with the sun and the moon. The horizon is broadened, and the heart is broadened. Something was quietly sprouting in her heart, and she first decided to solve the matter of Ximenqing by herself, so there was this scene of confrontation with Wang Er.
Out of the backyard, can this one thing be handled?
What an official can do, can she also do?
The blood quietly boiled and ignited at the touch of a button.
Sure enough, just two days after that incident, Ximenqing really sounded the drum in front of the county yamen early in the morning, and the drum sounded in bursts, attracting many people to come.
Ximen Qingyao looked at Wu Zhi in the hall with a proud look, confident, and loud, "The grass people sue the county order Wu Zhi!" sued him for accepting bribes on the occasion of the new year, and the evidence is in the study in the county magistrate's mansion! Wu County Order, do you dare to let people check? ”
The words stunned the people, and it was the first time to sue the county order. There was a lot of discussion outside the county office, and the pot exploded.
Above the public court, Wu Zhi's face was gloomy, and he fell in shock, "Do you know that slandering the court officials is a disrespectful crime, and you should be exiled according to the law?!" ”
Ximenqing sneered, extremely rampant, "Why, I don't dare to let people investigate, but use the court law to press me, you obviously have a ghost in your heart!" Whether there are any stolen goods, you will know at a check, Wu County Order, have you taken it? ”
He seemed to have a good idea of his plan, and even bluntly said that he had all the evidence and witnesses, and he was bound to bring down Wu Zhi.
"This official is honest and honest, and he has never been corrupt and bends the law, so what is there to be afraid of, but you have to think clearly about the consequences." Seeing that there were more and more people in the county government, and even some people began to speak to Ximenqing under the leadership of people with hearts, and the call for the officials to thoroughly investigate the study of the county government was getting louder and louder, Wu Zhi narrowed his eyes and looked at the rampant Ximenqing condescendingly.
The Ximen family has been in trouble with Qinghe County for a long time, and long before Wu Zhi became an official, he had already relied on the power of his family to make several county commanders helpless and did not dare to touch him. can be rampant for decades, not only because of the family's money, Wu Zhi has long guessed that their family may have colluded with the governor of the state for a long time.
If things really develop according to Pan Jinlian's guess, Ximenqing is now jumping over the wall in a hurry, and if he has the courage to sue the county order, then he will inevitably be implicated with the governor of the state.
Of course, all this is just a guess.
However, seeing Ximenqing's posture, that guess is a little more certain.
Wu Zhi looked at Ximenqing coldly, not angry and arrogant, but Ximenqing was not afraid, met his gaze, not to be outdone, and even had a little bit of martial arts in his eyes.
After a long time, Wu Zhi said, "Okay, according to what you said, send someone to check now, and the villagers will witness that if you really find out the gold in your mouth, the black gauze hat on the official's head will be taken off today." But if you slander your ruler, then, according to the law, your ruler will exile you for thousands of miles! ”
"Good!"
The study of the county government is behind the county office, and Wu Zhi, under the witness of the people, sent ten officials to thoroughly inspect the study.
The martial artist's study turned upside down, and he didn't turn out the gold in Ximenqing's mouth, let alone gold, in the study, there was not even a tael of silver!
Ximenqing was dumbfounded, "This can't be!" There must be gold, and I have witnesses! ”
Wu Zhi looked at him coldly, "Okay, who are the witnesses you are talking about?" ”
"Wang Er!"
"Okay, it's called Wang Er!" It seems that Wu Zhi is going to confront him to the end.
Ximen Qing pressed down his heartbeat, and there was the last straw!
Wang Er walked out of the back of the hall, and the man's back was straight, and he didn't even look at him.
