A knife in love

Chapter 1454

Li Qiufeng followed Master Jiang, He Tuotou and others all the way to Zhuangkou, but saw more than 100 Zhuang Ding from Majiazhuang blocking the outside of Zhuangzi, insulting and mocking Wangjiazhuang Zhuang Ding who was guarding Zhuangkou from time to time.Mr. Jiang frowned, turned his head and said to the owner of Ma Zhuang: "Didn't you ask you to send someone to bring Zhuang Ding back to Ma's Village? Why are they still making trouble here?"

The owner of Ma Zhuang said with a sneer: "My brothers in Majiazhuang are all loyal and loyal men. They are worried that I will be murdered by villains, so they refuse to leave. Master Jiang, do you think they are all like the old Wang's gangsters? , do you run away with your head in your arms when you encounter some trivial matters? To put it bluntly, if someone wants to harm Lao Tzu, these brothers will definitely not let him go!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the more than a hundred Zhuang Ding of Majiazhuang stopped clamoring, and looked at the owner of Mazhuang in a daze, with terrified expressions on their faces.Seeing the situation of the crowd, Ma Zhuang was startled, and then he knew that he was wearing an iron chain around his neck, and that he was so panicked when his subordinates saw it.The owner of Ma Zhuang was about to say a few words to strengthen everyone's courage, when he saw all the Zhuang Ding shouted, he turned and ran away.There are only a dozen or so hard-core cronies of the horse owner barely standing on the ground.It's just that although the dozen or so people stayed, they still looked panic-stricken, as if they could escape at any time.

Seeing this situation, Ma Zhuangzhu was shocked and angry, and his face was extremely embarrassing.

Master Jiang sneered, and said in his mouth: "What a group of loyal heroes!"

His words were full of sarcasm, and after hearing this, Zhuang Ma's face became even more ugly.Master Jiang ignored him, turned his head to He Butou and said: "He Butou, you leave a few policemen to guard at Zhuangkou, if anyone dares to harass him, take them down and send them to the officials immediately."

He Butou agreed, and ordered the six policemen to stay at the Zhuangkou, and guard the Zhuangkou together with all the Zhuangding in Wangjiazhuang.Master Jiang whispered a few more words to Steward Wang, and then he led He Butou and a group of other police officers to escort Li Qiufeng and Ma Zhuangzhu, and walked straight to the county seat.

A group of people passed through the North City Gate and entered Dongliao County.When the people on the street saw Master Jiang, they came forward to talk to him one after another, and the conversation was very affectionate.Seeing this situation, Li Qiufeng thought to himself, this master Jiang is fair and is very popular among the people.Fortunately, he presides over the matter of Wangjiazhuang today.Otherwise, if it were a greedy person like Master Pan, he would have already connived the owner of Ma Zhuang to annex Wangjiazhuang.The owner of the Wang villa was seriously injured, and Miss Wang wanted to take him away.This girl is too spoiled and spoiled her parents.In fact, when this matter came to the yamen, with Master Jiang's help, it can be explained clearly, why take the risk of running away?In this way, the fact that the Wang family's father and daughter killed four people in Majiazhuang was confirmed, and the consequences are worrisome.

Everyone went all the way to the Yamen of Dongliao County.But outside the gate, there were four fast catchers holding their waist knives, patrolling back and forth in front of the gate.Seeing Master Jiang and Catcher He arrived, the four cops rushed forward to greet them, bowing and saluting.

Catcher He said to the four policemen: "Has Mr. Li been promoted to work?"

A policeman said with a smile on his face, "Lord Li has not been promoted today, and has been resting in the back house."

He Butou nodded, looked up at the sky, turned to Master Jiang and said, "Old Jiang, it's getting late. If we invite Mr. Li to go up to the court for trial, I'm afraid he will be very unhappy. Why don't we ask Mr. Li for now?" Master Ma and Young Master Zhu are resting in the yamen for one night, and it will not be too late to invite Mrs. Li to ask questions in the morning."

Mr. Jiang hesitated a little, and said in his mouth: "But this case involves four lives, so there must be no delay..."

Master Jiang hesitated a little when he said this, so he didn't continue.He Butou said in a low voice: "That's what I said, but it's not like you don't know our Master Li's temper. I think at this time, the third wife has already boiled the wine for Master Li, and the fourth wife has prepared a drink for him. The fifth lady has changed her clothes and is about to invite Mrs. Li to have a drink while watching her dance. At this time, let's invite him to the hall to ask questions. You know better than me what the consequences will be."

Master Jiang's face was cloudy and uncertain, and he had nothing to say for a while.Li Qiufeng stood aside, he had profound inner strength, although Jiang and He's voices were not loud, they could hear them clearly.Listening to He Butou talking about Li Zhisheng being so licentious and shameless, Li Qiufeng thought to himself that the conspiracy of the Japanese pirates was about to start, but Li Zhisheng, the magistrate of Dongliao County, was completely defenseless.When you interrogate yourself, you must remind yourself that if this person fears the enemy and does not fight, he will not hesitate to use force.

When Li Qiufeng was thinking about it, he saw Mr. Jiang nodded, sighed, and said, "That's the only way."

After he finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Li Qiufeng and Ma Zhuangzhu, whispered a few words to He Butou, and then said to Li Qiufeng and Ma Zhuangzhu: "It's getting late today, Mr. Li's puppet I feel unwell, so I can't go up to the court for questioning. The two of you who are wronged have a rest in the yamen for one night, and we will go to see Mr. Li together tomorrow morning."

Li Qiufeng knew that Master Jiang's words were to cover up for Li Zhisheng, so he remained silent.But Ma Zhuangzhu said loudly, "Since Mr. Li can't ask the case today, you might as well let me go. I will naturally come to the yamen to wait for the trial tomorrow morning. In this way, you can also save two dollars for the yamen." Wouldn't it be nice to have a meal in prison?"

Master Jiang hadn't answered yet, but He Butou smiled and said, "Lao Ma, what you said is out of line. Just now we said in Wangjiazhuang that neither you nor Mr. Zhu are criminals, they just came to the yamen to testify." However, since both of you are involved in the case, we had no choice but to bring torture equipment to the two of you, just for show. After entering the yamen, we can find a clean room for the two of you in addition to their torture equipment. Stay here. Tomorrow Master Li's promotion to the hall for questioning is just a formality. As long as the two of you tell the truth and find the father and daughter of the Wang family who escaped, naturally nothing will happen to you. Old horse, you just feel wronged .”

Owner Ma snorted, and said, "It's okay to be wronged or not, but I'm used to being carefree, and I'm afraid I can't stand the rules of your county magistrate's yamen. Since He catcher talks, I'll stay overnight in the yamen. I don't know." Master Pan is here, I have something to talk to him about."

He Butou knew that Master Ma and Master Pan had always been in close contact, and Master Pan was Li Zhisheng's confidant, and in Dongliao County, he was a figure under one person and above ten thousand.Therefore, after hearing what Zhuangzhu Ma said, he hurriedly smiled and said: "This is not a difficult task. After you and Mr. Zhu live together, I will naturally let people report this matter to Master Pan, and then I will arrange for you to see him."

Ma Zhuangzhu nodded in satisfaction, and said: "Then there is no need to arrest the head."

He Butou said: "Where is it? Your old horse is our guest when you arrive at the yamen. Why are you so polite?"

The two said a few more words, and Master Jiang said to He Butou: "There are still a few vacant rooms in the right wing of the middle courtyard, so please invite Ma Zhuangzhu and Mr. Zhu to live in. You go and arrange a place for the two of them. I went to the kitchen to find Lao Zhang and asked him to prepare dinner for Ma Zhu and Mr. Zhu."

He Butou nodded, turned around and said to Li Qiufeng and Ma Zhuangzhu: "You two, please follow me."
