Chapter VII: Framing

"Get out of the way, get out of the way. A group of catchers dressed in official uniforms and with large knives pinned to their waists came over.

looked at the portrait in his hand and then at Xiaobao, and said, "Are you Huang Zhijun?"

Xiaobao nodded.

"Then I'll trouble you to come with us. The handcuffs and foot cuffs grabbed Xiaobao.

The mother stood in front of Xiaobao alone and said, "What about you Liu Zhutou?"

"Head catcher...", the catcher was not finished yet.

An unattractive man came out of the crowd, "Mrs. Huang, the villain is here." Bi said respectfully.

The mother looked at him, "There is no need for handcuffs, our Xiaobao will go with you." ”

"Yes, yes, then please ask Huang Gongzi to accompany us. Liu Zhutou stretched out his hand and asked.

Xiaobao and Madame Huang walked down the steps together, and quickly walked around them to the yamen.

I used to pass by the yamen every day, but I never entered it, and I never thought that I would enter it one day.

Looking at the surrounding catchers, only in the martial arts realm, the strongest Liu Zhutou is also at the peak of martial arts, no wonder he will be respectful to his mother. I think it was the last time I went to my home to find me, and I suffered a lot of losses.

"Master, what's the matter with such a hurry?" said a middle-aged man with a fat head and big ears in the yamen who looked at the panting master and wondered.

"Master, hurry up and go to the court, that kid from the Huang family has been caught. Master said hurriedly.

"Oh, then when I change my clothes, you go and teach me a lesson first. The county magistrate said angrily.

The master walked up to him and said carefully, "Master, I know that Mrs. Huang made you lose face last time in the Huang family, and Mrs. Huang is also outside today, if you really punish him, then I'm afraid..."

"Then that's it, can't you breathe out?" the county magistrate straightened his clothes and spoke.

"It's... It's just a matter of opportunity. The master thought about it, and there was really nothing he could do, so he said euphemistically.

In the public court, my mother and I stood aside, waiting for the county magistrate's trial.

looked at a fat man with a fat head and big ears in an official uniform in front of him walking out, followed by a thin man with thief eyebrows and mouse eyes, the two formed a stark contrast, one big and one small, one fat and one thin.

As soon as the two of them walked out, the officials on both sides beat the sticks rhythmically, and shouted in their mouths, "Wei ~ Wu..."

"Whoever is in the hall, report the name quickly. The county magistrate took the board and slapped it, scolding.

Xiaobao just wanted to answer, but before he could speak, the mother next to him spoke, "County official, aren't you knowingly asking." ”

"Ahem, ahem. In the public court, the official didn't ask you, you are not allowed to speak. The county magistrate blushed and said stiffly. If you want to put ordinary people aside, you would have been punished and thrown out, and you have to be presumptuous here, but the county officials who have suffered losses obviously don't dare to punish my mother. To be precise, no one can inflict punishment if they want to.

"People, you can't disobey the old, you see that you can't stand the soreness after standing for a while. The mother pretended to hammer her legs.

After listening to his mother's words, the county official's face turned blue, and he waved his hand and said, "Come on, give Mrs. Huang a seat." ”

The official brought a stool, and Mrs. Huang sat on the chair and did not make a sound.

"Bold Huang Zhijun, you are guilty. The county magistrate pointed at Xiaobao and scolded, maybe because Mrs. Huang was on the side, the county magistrate didn't care why Xiaobao didn't kneel down and let him stand.

Xiaobao looked at the eyes of the county magistrate and looked at his mother from time to time, and couldn't help but want to laugh a little, the county magistrate was afraid that his mother would make trouble again! ”

"Ten days ago, before noon, you were somewhere and someone was with you. The county magistrate asked Xiaobao.

"Back to my lord, ten days ago, the villain was outside the woods on the county road before noon because he was going to go to the city and countryside to test. Xiaobao replied seriously.

"Oh!" he wondered, visibly confused, "do you know what happened where you were that day." ”

"Three dead!" Xiao Bao said calmly.

"But what did you do?" the magistrate leaned up, stretched out to the table and looked at me.

"Yes. Xiaobao said calmly.

As soon as the words fell, the three middle-aged men kneeling on the side spoke, "My lord." You see, the eyes are lawless, and the grade is too young to kill people, and this son must not stay in the world. ”

The woman in front of her cried, "My son! You died such a miserable death!"

The county magistrate was a little impatient by their cries and said, "Quiet, quiet, above the court, what kind of system, no matter how much crying and crying are thrown out to this official." ”

They stopped crying and sobbed quietly.

"Why did you kill them?" said the county magistrate in a deep voice.

"Why? Because they did it first, and their skills were not as good as others, and I killed them. Xiaobao puffed up his chest and said loudly.

"Oh, but there are people who are different from what you said, and people come to spread the bulls. The county official's voice just fell.

The official came up with Niu Fen, Niu Fen knelt on the ground, and said respectfully, "Little people Niu Fen, please meet your lord." ”

Xiaobao looked at the familiar face of the visitor, only to realize that this person was the person who was watching me beside me that day. I was blown away in a state of shock, but I didn't die.

"You tell the truth about that day. The county magistrate ordered.

Niu Fen clenched his hands into fists and said with red eyes, "That day, I went out with my brother to play, and I happened to see him and his companions trying to force the women of a good family in broad daylight. ”

The county magistrate looked at me, and Xiaobao retorted, "Nonsense, it was just them and me and my friends that day, and the old coachman who drove us to the city. Where did the woman come from?"

The county magistrate slapped the board and said, "Pass the old coachman." ”

The old coachman was taken to the court, and the county magistrate pointed to Xiaobao and asked, "But this person?"

Xiaobao looked back, and the old coachman raised his head and looked at Xiaobao, "Yes, it's him." ”

"Thou shalt bring the situation of the day from the truth, and thou shalt not deceive it in the slightest. The county magistrate pointed to the old coachman.

"On that day, this prince and his companion rode in my carriage to the city of Shifang, but on the way he saw a beautiful woman. got up with a bad heart, hurriedly asked me to stop, and wanted to kill me. The old coachman said in trepidation.

"You.... Xiaobao looked at the old coachman with some anger and said sharply, "It's just nonsense." ”

"What else do you have to say?" the county magistrate looked at Xiao Baodao.

"There's no such thing at all, they're all nonsense. "I was so angry that my face turned red.

At this time, a woman came to the back hall and whispered to the county official above the court, "Master, master." ”

The county magistrate looked at the woman and waved his hand at the master, who walked towards the woman.

"What's the matter, madam, the master is trying the case, don't bother if there is no major matter. Master said respectfully.

"Master, please tell the master, there are important guests in the backyard. The woman said anxiously.

The master looked at the woman's anxious expression and responded, "Then I'll go and inform the adults first." ”

The master hurriedly walked to the county magistrate above the public hall and whispered in his ear.

"Wait a minute, everyone will rest for a stick of incense. After saying that, he hurried to the back hall.

The county magistrate looked at the anxious lady behind him and said, "What kind of person, don't be a relative of your family, isn't this nonsense, trying the case." ”

The woman looked left and right, gave him a blank look and said, "No, it's the eldest young master of the Shen family in the city, and they are waiting for you in the backyard."

The county magistrate stared at his wife with wide eyes, "Is it the Shen family, one of the four major families in the city?" the county magistrate exclaimed.

The woman nodded, "It's him." ”

"Go, take my best tea leaves, brew them and bring them up" hurriedly walked to the backyard.

When the county magistrate walked to the backyard, he saw two people, a man sitting on a stone chair with an extraordinary bearing, followed by a sturdy man.

The county magistrate walked towards them and arched his hand, "Young Master Shen has a big frame, and if you miss the distance, you still look at Haihan!"

The man got up and saluted back, "Where, where, the county magistrate is busy with official business, I hope you forgive me for taking the liberty of disturbing!"

After a while, the woman came up with tea and set it on the stone table.

"This time, I came to ask for something. After taking a sip of tea, Young Master Shen slowly spoke.

"I don't know what it is, but if it is within the scope of my ability, I will do my best. The county magistrate replied.

Young Master Shen raised his hand to the man behind him, and the man took out the box, put it on the stone table and opened it.

The gold was shining, and stacks of gold bars were lying quietly in the box.

The county magistrate's face was greedy, but he still restrained himself, "What does this mean?"

"It's just to look at the county magistrate, for the people's hard work, specially presented, the people in the court look forward to the lord..." Speaking of this, Young Master Shen stopped his words, and gestured with his palm lightly in front of his neck.

"Oh, hahahaha, the villain will not do his duty and eliminate harm for the people. The county magistrate laughed.

The two looked at each other, picked up their teacups and touched each other like wine glasses.
