Chapter 102: Heart-Damaging Rumors (Part II)

As soon as Pei Shikong's words fell, among the onlookers in the courtyard, a slightly chubby middle-aged man was squeezed out. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The man squeezed in and said with a smile: "Come on, come on! The villain has long heard that there is a lively scene to see today, and he came early in the morning." I can't imagine that there is still a place where the villain can be used!"

Chen Ao frowned, and when he saw this person's face as a philistine, he knelt down in the hall and asked, "Are you the shopkeeper of the Red Gate Tower?"

The man smiled and said, "The little Lu Shangjing is the shopkeeper of the Red Gate Tower. The adults forgot, on that day, the eldest prince of Liang invited the adults to a banquet, and the little one even served the dishes himself!"

Where would Chen Ao remember what Lu Shangjing was? He said in his heart, as soon as Pei Shikong shouted, this person came out, and he didn't have to think about it to know that this must have been arranged by them again.

Although Chen Ao didn't know what this Lu Shangjing would say, he knew that there must be no good words, so he didn't want him to speak.

However, Pei Shikong had already prepared, and said with a smile when he saw this: "Lord Chen, since this person is a witness, he should still be allowed to say it, right?"

Wei Ji also said: "Hmph, I said a long time ago, there are a lot of strange things about this matter. My lord, you don't dare to let Shopkeeper Lu speak, could it be that there is a ghost in your heart?"

Chen Ao bit his lip and sneered: "Okay! Lu Shangjing, since you have something to say, just say it." I'd like to see what tricks you have up your sleeve!"

Lu Shang got permission and said, "My lord, in the Red Gate Tower yesterday, everything can be seen clearly. Yesterday, you brought someone to arrest Xu Gongzi and Xie Gongzi, and said on the street that they were the murderers of Wu Ping'er's girl. The two sons refused to admit it, so you ordered a beating. The two sons couldn't bear it, so they could only admit it. Then, my lord, you deliberately lured them and said that Wei Gongzi was their mastermind......"

Chen Ao trembled with anger at this man's words that reversed black and white. His fist slammed on the table, and he said angrily, "Hmph! You can talk nonsense with your eyes open!"

Lu Shangjing said: "I never tell a lie in Xia, so many people at that time saw it with their own eyes!"

Chen Ao said: "Okay! Since you say so, I'll go and ask all those people for questioning......

As soon as he was halfway through the words, five or six more people appeared in the courtyard and shouted: "My lord, the little one was on the scene yesterday, and I can prove that what the shopkeeper Lu said is true!"

"Yes, my lord, as the official of Liangcheng's parents, how can you deliberately frame a good person!"

"My lord, what is the purpose of doing this?"

Chen Ao finally knew the meaning of the three of them becoming tigers, and after such a chaotic shouting, the people who didn't know why also thought that things were really as Lu Shangjing said.

Chen Ao saw that among the few people who stood up, not all of them were children of rich families. Most of them were poor people living in Xicheng. What these people say is easier for people who don't know the truth to believe.

It's just that Chen Ao doesn't understand that these people will never appear in Dongcheng, let alone enter and exit the Red Gate Tower. These people were naturally instigated by Liang Sizhi to come here to commit perjury!

Chen Ao gritted his teeth in anger. Wei Ji smiled and said with a smile: "My lord, I still heard some gossip below, I don't know if I should talk about it or not......

By this time, the situation seemed to be out of Chen's control. Even if he didn't want Wei Ji to speak, the people in the courtyard who were already a little "angry" would not agree.

Chen Ao sneered: "If you have anything else to say, you might as well say it all!"

Wei Ji gave a thumbs up and said with a smile: "Okay! Lord Chen really has courage! Then I heard that Miss Wu Ping'er has been in and out of the county government a lot these days, and she has a very close relationship with adults?"

Chen Ao said: "So what?"

Wei Ji smiled: "Oh, of course it's nothing. Men are not married, women are not married, there is nothing in the first place. However, I heard that this Ping'er girl is a water-based poplar flower, a woman who likes to seduce men......"

He didn't finish speaking, and Chen Ao was shocked. There was a loud "bang", and the startling wood was almost smashed. Everyone was startled, and when they saw Chen Ao's face turned pale, they all felt worried. It seems that Chen Ao is really moved and angry now.

Wei Ji swallowed his saliva, remembering Liang Sizhi's instructions: "Chen Ao, this person, his origin is unknown and unfathomable, it is best not to be easily provoked." ”

However, the matter has come to this point, Wei Ji can only take dangerous moves in order to clear his crime, and there is no way to do it.

He stiffened his head and said, "My lord, it seems that you have also been confused by Wu Ping'er! In fact, adults don't have to be angry, you are not the only one who has been fooled. I heard that Lu Degui, the steward of the Liang Mansion, was confused by this demon girl!"

As soon as the words fell, Lu Degui really squeezed out of the crowd and stepped forward and said, "That's right! Wu Ping'er is a vixen, specializing in seducing men. Otherwise, how could I have given the ploughing ox to Old Man Wu in a daze?"

Wei Ji said again: "That's right! I also heard that on the night of Wu Ping'er's death, the spring heart was unbearable, so he seduced my two friends to go to Wushan ...... together."

Xu Mao and Xie Ning heard this, and hurriedly said: "That's right, that's right! It was Wu Ping'er's girl who seduced us that day." We were having fun in that shabby house, and when we left, Wu Ping'er was still alive and well! She died, but it had nothing to do with us. Maybe, as soon as we left that day, she couldn't bear the loneliness and went out to find another man!"

Wei Ji smiled: "Yes, I heard that in that dilapidated house, there is a ruffian named Laipi Dog, maybe that person later got along with Wu Ping'er and killed someone by mistake! My lord, didn't you say that the autopsy said that there were three people who did that with Wu Ping'er? Now they all happen to be right!"

The more they talked, the more energetic they became. Chen Ao bit his lip with his teeth, almost biting out blood. He glanced at He Jiangyue, He Jiangyue sighed lightly, and whispered, "I just wanted to tell you." For some reason, overnight, rumors spread throughout Liangcheng that Miss Ping'er was not an innocent woman...... All kinds of rumors, very ugly to hear......"

Not only Chen Ao, but Wu Laohan was lying on the ground, not having the strength to speak, but he was already trembling with anger. Where did he think that his innocent granddaughter would be so slandered?

Listening to the voices of the people in the courtyard, most of them were lamenting how Wu Ping'er could be such a bad woman, and she was really deceived by her in the past.

Chen Ao threw the shocked wood to the ground, left everyone behind, and rushed out of the county office. Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what Chen Ao was going to do.

Wei Ji was also taken aback, he heard that Chen Ao has always done things unreasonably, he wouldn't have gone out to call people, right? Listening to Liang Sizhi say that Chen Ao's kung fu is unfathomable, he has been a little overt this time, and he didn't call more people from his family, so if he fights later, don't suffer a loss.

The people in the county government were thinking about their own thoughts, and no one could have guessed that Chen Ao had gone out and had strode towards the Liang Mansion.

"Liang Sizhi, you are really ruthless enough!" Chen Ao gritted his teeth and muttered to himself. The original idea of protecting himself who didn't want to cause trouble was all thrown out of the clouds.
