Chapter 008: Confused County Officials (2)

Bai Luoshang glanced at Li Yuanzheng and asked, "I don't know why Escort Li sued me?"

Li Yuanzheng replied: "You are suspected of murder and escape." ”

Bai Luoshang shouted that he was wronged.

The county magistrate also said: "This official sees that this person is very gentle, and his body is not very strong, how can he kill six big men? drunk or not, in order to prove your innocence, you now give Li Huwei a punch, if you can defeat him alone, it will prove that you are a murderer." ”

Bai Luoshang looked dazed, and Li Yuanzheng looked black.

The county official said: "Drunk or not, why don't you listen to this official?"

Bai Luoshang was a little embarrassed, looked at Li Yuanzheng, and didn't know what to do.

The county magistrate patted the shocked wood: "Be bold and drunk, blatantly ignore the official, come and beat him ninety boards." ”

Bai Luoshang hung his head helplessly and said, "...... My lord, the grass people's name is He Bushen. ”

"Are you drunk or not, do you have anything to say?"

For the first time, Bai Luoshang felt that her habit of choosing names casually was really bad.

Seeing that he was silent, the county magistrate knocked on the startled wood and asked, "Bold, this official asked, are you deaf and can't hear?"

Bai Luoshang lowered her head, "Yes, yes, but ......"

"Be bold, if the official asks, you should answer honestly, and if you have something to say, you want to be beaten by the board if you are muttering like this?"

"The grass people don't know where to start. ”

"Let's start with the motive for the killing. ”

"The grass people have no motive to kill. ”

The county magistrate narrowed his eyes and asked, "Then why did you gang up to kill people?" ”

Bai Luoshang raised her head and replied, "Lord Hui, I don't know that person, I have never been together, so why do we say it." ”

The county magistrate thought for a moment and asked, "Then why did you escape?"

Bai Luoshang said: "The grass people are afraid of causing trouble. ”

The county magistrate asked again, "Then why don't you go through the main gate?"

Bai Luoshang smiled bitterly: "The adults blocked the door. ”

The county magistrate slapped the table: "You dare to say that you are not a murderer, the official is blocking the door of the prisoner, since you are not a prisoner, how can you block your way?"

Bai Luoshang was speechless.

Li Yuanzheng asked next to him, "Tell me, why did you jump out of the window?"

Bai Luoshang sighed and said, "The grass people have nothing to say. ”

The county magistrate thought for a while, and then asked, "Are you drunk, you said you were wronged?"

"Yes. ”

"Can anyone prove it?"

Bai Luoshang hesitated for a moment and said, "The grass people are the guests of Lin Anwei in the courtyard Lin Mansion, and he can prove it for the grass people." ”

Unexpectedly, the county magistrate was shocked again, and scolded: "This official is doing things according to the rules, and he is not emotional, even if you move out a Bodhisattva, the official will take you according to the law." ”

Bai Luoshang was sweating profusely, and he couldn't keep up with the thinking of this confused county official at all.

The county magistrate glared and asked, "Suiyuan Lin Gongzi is virtuous and far-reaching, how can he know a womanizer like you?"

This simple sentence made Bai Luoshang and Lin An slightly separate the difference between cloud and mud, which made Bai Luoshang feel a little uncomfortable. also made him feel for the first time that it is wrong for a person to be lustful.

Wiping his forehead, Bai Luoshang smiled bitterly: "My lord, the grass people are not womanizers. ”

The county official sarcastically said: "I went to the Qinglou at night, and I said that I was not a womanizer." ”

Bai Luoshang couldn't cry or laugh: "Since it's a Qinglou, it's naturally interesting to go at night, don't adults think it's not good to go in broad daylight?"

"Bold. The county magistrate scolded: "You dare to tease the official? ”

That's it?

Bai Luosheng's eyes widened in disbelief, and she couldn't even laugh anymore.

Is this a confused verdict or a deliberate verdict?

The two of them walked and lifted him up, although it was uncomfortable, Bai Luoshang did not struggle, let alone resist. Being suppressed by people left and right, Bai Luoshang lowered his head, only to hear the county official add: "This county prison has not been closed for too long, it is overgrown with grass, and the prisoners in the hall will help remove the grass when they are fine, maybe the official is happy and can be extrajudicial to show mercy." ”

Suddenly there was a deep helplessness, Bai Luoshang was too lazy to argue, he found that he really said too much and was wrong, how to say how wrong.

The official was holding Bai Luo's clothes, and just as he was about to leave, the county official called again: "Come back." ”

Two men stopped with the prisoner in tow.

The county magistrate pointed to Bai Luoshuang's waist and said, "Leave your fan." ”

The night is dustless, and the moonlight is like silver.

There was no light in the prison, it was dark, there was no sky, no earth, no self, only a pair of eyes shining in the dark night.

Bai Luoshang squatted in the cell, bored, and couldn't help but sigh, this prison disaster was really too inexplicable. Maybe his luck has really not become very good, so he has been imprisoned one after another.

As the county magistrate said, the prison was full of grass, but it was not alive, but dead, and there were a lot of piles of straw high and low, all straw, and they had to be piled up.

Rats scurried from one haystack to another, and even cockroaches came out to join in the fun. Rats, cockroaches, geckos, crawling around in the dark, although they do not bite, can also cause goosebumps.

Where is this cell, it is clearly a firewood room. If someone deliberately sets fire, I am afraid that he will not be able to fly with wings, and there will be no return.

The iron window was only one person above the ground, he only needed to raise his hand to reach it, he only needed to use a little force, the iron window could be taken down by him, and then he only needed to cross it lightly to get out of this dirty and smelly cell. However, he did not go.

He took off the gourd, and as soon as he took a sip of wine, someone walked in, unlocked it, and escorted him out.

Bai Luoshang was puzzled all the way, did he still have to be tried at night? Until he saw the confused county official, the doubts in his heart were even stronger, could he really guess it, this county official really wanted a night trial?

The county magistrate sat in the signing room, flipped through the case file, glanced at Bai Luoshang quietly, and asked slowly: "Is the prisoner willing to confess?"

Bai Luoshang sighed secretly, sure enough, he guessed it, and he really didn't want to continue the topic here.

The county official's patience was obviously better than during the day, and when he saw Bai Luosheng refusing to answer, he just raised his eyebrows and said without raising his head: "This official asked, why didn't you answer?"

Bai Luoshang smiled bitterly: "Back to my lord, the grass people think that I have answered this many times during the day." ”

The county magistrate glanced at him and said, "The day is daytime, and now is now, if the official asks you now, you have to answer now." ”

Bai Luoshang bowed slightly, and said indifferently: "Back to my lord, the grass people have been wronged." ”

The county official snorted, "The official doesn't want to hear you cry out for injustice, the official only looks at the evidence." ”

If you don't want to hear it, why do you ask? Even if you ask it a hundred times, Bai Luoshang thinks that her answer will only be repeated a hundred times.

Rubbing his hands helplessly, Bai Luoshang retorted: "My lord, there is no evidence that the grass people killed people. ”

The county magistrate tapped the case file lightly with his finger and said slowly: "This official has witnesses." ”

"Who are the witnesses?" Bai Luoshang asked.

"The old bustard of the Yusheng Tower, the official's Li Guards and those officials who went to the Yusheng Tower together. The county official said.

"May I ask your lord, have any of your so-called witnesses witnessed the murder of the grass people?" Bai Luoshang asked.

"And can you have them testify against you and prove that you didn't do it?" the county magistrate asked rhetorically.

It really doesn't work, and it can't be done.

Bai Luoshang smiled and said, "Then it depends on how the adults judge." ”

The county magistrate also smiled and said, "I can give you a chance to ask for a lawyer." ”

There was no reason, Bai Luoshang suddenly remembered that during the day, the county official was very unreasonable to accept the money of two people, and then thought about his shrinking money bag, and sighed: "The grass people don't have silver, and I'm afraid the lawyer can't afford it." ”

The county magistrate said: "It doesn't take a lot of silver to hire a lawyer, as long as fifty taels can hire the best lawyer." ”

Bai Luoshang secretly touched the wine gourd, shook his head and said, "The grass people don't even have one or two." ”

"Do you think this official is a fool?"

"The grass people don't dare, the adults are wise, who dares to be disrespectful?"

"Do you think this official is blind?"

"The grass people don't dare, the adults are aware of everything, who dares to deceive?"

"Yes, the official is very clear, but whenever a person passes in front of the official, the official can see what attention is in his heart. The county magistrate snorted, "If you go to Yusheng Mansion and drink a few cups of flower wine casually, it will cost ten taels, why don't you even have a tael of silver to save yourself now? ”

Bai Luoshang touched his nose and thought to himself, if he said one more word, would this county official convict him of deception again.

The county magistrate said: "If you are drunk or not, do you know that once you enter my yamen's cell, you must work." If you can mend your ways, you will be released after three years. ”

Bai Luoshang laughed: "My lord, the grass people haven't been sentenced yet." ”

The county magistrate snorted and laughed twice, "Then you don't admit it to death, and you despise the majesty of this official." If the officer does not give you rations, within three days, you will surely get the truth. ”

Bai Luoshang opened his mouth wide and said in surprise: "My lord, you are coercing a confession with words and deeds." ”

The county magistrate also did not deny it, "It seems that this official will not torture you, and you will never admit your guilt." ”

Bai Luoshang repeated: "My lord, this is a trick of torture. ”

The county magistrate put down the case file, took another book, flipped through it casually, and said, "Your accent doesn't sound local, where are you from?"

Bai Luoshang beat a drum in his heart, and carefully looked at the county official's face, a little unsure of his intentions. He also secretly admired the ear power of the county official, he thought that his accent was not obviously different from the locals, but this person came out after hearing it.

Perhaps, the other party is just lying to him?

The county magistrate frowned: "Why don't you answer?"

Bai Luoshang replied: "Back to my lord, the ancestral home of the grass people is Xiangzhou. ”

The county official said: "Are you from Qianzhu Country?"

Bai Luoshang nodded.

The county magistrate asked again: "Then why did you come to my Nanxia office?"

Bai Luoshang was silent for a moment, and replied, "Visit friends." ”

The county official asked, "Lin Anwei?"

Bai Luoshang nodded again.
