high official

Chapter 19 Tiger Head
When Hu Butou returned to the yamen to return to his order, it was already the end of Shen Shi, and Wei Zhixian was still waiting anxiously.Knowing that they were about to succeed, the county magistrate was overjoyed, and immediately ordered people to arrest Zhao Meiniang's father and brother.

By the time the suspect arrived, it was already dark.Wei Zhixian didn't delay for a moment, ordered someone to hold a lamp and light a fire, and he wanted to try this confusing and strange case at night!
This lightning-like action really dazzled people, and the people in the county also rushed to hear the news, looking at the lobby through the gate, and watched the county magistrate to see how he would judge the case!
'Boom, boom, boom...' The drums sounded.

"Mighty..." Two rows of soap slaves pounded the floor tiles with water and fire sticks, making the scalp numb.

Hitting the gavel with a 'crack', Wei Zhixian shouted: "The one kneeling in the hall is Zhao Meiniang!"

"Minister Zhang Linghua." The beautiful woman with pale face replied tremblingly.

"How dare you argue even now!" Wei Zhixian said coldly, "Since you're not Zhao Meiniang, why are you hiding in the tunnel? What's wrong with you?!"

"This..." The beautiful woman was frightened by the power in the hall, trembling and speechless.

"What on earth is your woman's heart made of!" Wei Zhixian continued to forcefully said: "You absconded privately and ruined your husband's family. Now that he is about to be executed, don't you have any guilt?!"

"What?" The beautiful woman said in surprise when she heard the words, "I am the one who escaped and not him, how could he be beheaded?"

"Now you admit that you are Zhao Meiniang?" Wei Zhixian snorted.

"Yes, I'm Zhao Meiniang." The beautiful woman finally nodded and said, "But I didn't harm my husband. He beat me and scolded me, and even went to the government to sue me and my adulterer for donating money and absconding. I was afraid of being caught by the government and wanted to ride a wooden donkey." , that's why I hid in He Yuan's house, but I didn't harm anyone from the beginning to the end..."

"I'll let you meet someone." Wei Zhixian said coldly, "Bring him here."

So two guards helped Lin Rongxing, who had been tortured so much, come up to the hall.Lin Xiucai, who used to be a jade tree facing the wind, is now as thin as a stick, covered with injuries, with messy hair hanging straight to his chest.

"Take a closer look at who he is?" Wei Zhixian stopped her and ordered.

Only then did Zhao Meiniang come to her senses, opened her eyes wide and looked at him for a long time before she recognized that he was her husband Lin Rongxing. With a wow, she hugged him and burst into tears, asking heart-piercingly, "How could this happen? , why is it like this?"

Lin Xiucai's expression was blank, and she didn't even look at her.

With this situation, even those hard-hearted subordinates couldn't help being moved, some sighed secretly and some shed tears...

Wei Zhixian suppressed his mood, slapped the startled wood and said: "Lin Zhao, don't tell the truth about what happened!"

Zhao Meiniang naturally wouldn't hide it at this moment, sobbing and confessing...

It turned out that the night before she disappeared two years ago, Lin Xiucai invited her classmates to drink at home. Zhao Meiniang drank a few cups with her, and then she lost herself.Lin Xiucai was so angry that she scolded her after the banquet was over.Zhao Meiniang never liked him, she quarreled with him, and then wrestled together.It was only when her father-in-law and sister-in-law heard the movement and separated them that it was over.

The more Zhao Meiniang thought about it, the angrier she became, and she went out early the next morning, because she had a precedent of going back to her mother's house after a quarrel, and the Lin family didn't care.

But on the way home, Zhao Meiniang met a classmate of Lin Xiucai.The man's name was Feng Nian, and he was tall and suave, and the two of them had been flirting with each other before, and they had long intended to fight like firewood.Seeing her lonesome and resentful now, Feng Xiucai naturally would not let go of the opportunity to show courteousness, and strongly invited her to his home as a guest.

Zhao Meiniang is a woman who is easygoing, and she also has a good impression of Feng Xiucai, who is handsome, funny and gentle, and feels that he is a hundred times better than her hard-headed husband.So he hesitated and followed to Feng Nian's house to stay.

What she was thinking at the time was that she would go back to her husband's house after playing for a while, but who knew that after the two of them hooked up and became adulterous, they would become like glue and never think about leaving for half a month.Half a month later, Feng Xiucai said he would send her back to her natal home, but she was sent to He's home in a sedan chair.

When she arrived at He's house, Feng Xiucai disappeared, and what she saw were He Yuanwai and her father.

The two told her that Lin Rongxing had reported to the government that she and her adulterer had absconded with money, and that the county was offering a reward for her arrest.As soon as she showed up, she would be arrested, paraded through the streets on a wooden donkey, and then executed by Ling Chi.

Zhao Meiniang believed it was true, she was so frightened that she sifted through the chaff, and asked what should be done?
He Yuanwai smiled and said, you can stay at my house and don't show your face, who can find you?
Her father also said, yes, He Yuanwai's deep house here is far away from the county town, so it's very safe, so you can live here with peace of mind.

Although she felt that not being able to go out was too boring, her life was still important, so Zhao Meiniang agreed.Soon, he fell into the gentle offensive of He Yuanwai, completely cut off the thought of going home, and devoted himself to becoming a golden bird...

After she finished her confession and signed it, Wei Zhixian ordered her father to be brought here.

Seeing that Zhao Meiniang had already confessed, her father had nothing to hide, so he confessed that he thought his daughter was beaten to death by the Lin family, and in grief and anger sued his son-in-law for murder.As a result, not long after, Feng Xiucai came to the door and confessed that Meiniang was not dead, but was with him.

Hearing that his daughter was still alive, old man Zhao was both happy and scared, needless to say he was happy, because he was afraid that he would sit back because of the false accusation, and he would be offended even more.

When he was in a dilemma, his old friend He Yuan came to visit and asked about Meiniang.Old man Zhao knew that Yuanwai He had a lot of knowledge and ideas, so he couldn't help but tell him the truth.

He Yuanwai heard that it was right for you not to go to the government to confess, otherwise you will have to sit back and lose your head.He Chang is a dignified head of food, and his words are naturally credible.This frightened the old man Zhao, and begged He Yuanwai to find a way.

Member Wai thought about it, and said that since this is the case, let Meiniang live with me first, and you still think she is dead, just continue to sue.Old man Zhao thought that this was the only way to go, so he asked Feng Xiucai to send his daughter to He Yuan's family...

More than a month passed like this, and the female corpse appeared.The government notified Zhao's family to identify the body, old man Zhao quickly informed his son-in-law to make up his mind, Yuanwai He made them insist that the deceased was Zhao Meiniang, that's why the autopsy scene happened!
But Chen Zhixian finally determined that the deceased was not Zhao Meiniang, so the old man had no choice but to give up.

Just when Zhao's father thought that the matter would pass safely, the inspector of the Western Zhejiang branch came to the county to investigate the unjust prison.

Father Zhao naturally didn't dare.Member He patted his chest and promised that as long as you sue, you will definitely win, and there will be no future troubles from then on.Father Zhao still didn't dare, so Yuanwai He threatened to send Zhao Meiniang back to the Lin family, so he had no choice but to submit...

As a result, he really won the lawsuit, not only overturned the case, but also pulled down the officials of Fuyang County.

Later, when he heard that Wang Xingshu's son asked someone to write a pleading to overturn the case, he hurriedly notified He Yuanwai.Because Wang Xian is a gambler and a libertine, and Fuyang is in a chaotic period without a county magistrate, He Yuanwai simply sent a few people to beat him to death near the casino...

.

The interrogation of old man Zhao's son gave the same confession. So far, the facts of the case have been almost clarified, but there is one thing that Wei Zhixian didn't understand, so he asked the two of them, "Why do you listen to He Chang's words so much? I'm afraid it's not just his daughter who is in his hands." .”

The two murmured and dared not answer, and under the three trees of Weizhi County, they revealed their true feelings, He Yuanwai is not only the grain chief, but also a hundred households of Jinyiwei!
Wei Zhixian's heart trembled, and he said to Li Xingshu, who was in charge of recording, "Erasure this paragraph."

Li Xingshu nodded. In fact, he didn't dare to remember these three words at all.

Because the reputation of Jin Yiwei was too fierce, under the leadership of the commander Ji Gang, it became lawless and killed innocent people indiscriminately.In their eyes, all princes, nobles, and court officials are like worthless things.As long as he is given the title of Jianwen Remnants, his whole family can be killed!
This is a group of vicious gods who ignore the king's law. Even a small hundred households cannot be offended by Weizhi County!
In that room, Butou Hu was terrified when he heard it, no wonder the guy was so loud, it turns out that there is a mountain of Jin Yiwei backing him!

When He Chang was arraigned, Wei Zhixian's aura became much weaker...

He Chang has also regained his composure.He is a hereditary food chief, and he is not tortured when he sees officials as equals.Moreover, this title can only be taken away by reporting to the Ministry of Household Affairs, and the state and county have no right to take it away.Sitting on the scorpion with big lala, he went back to Wei Zhi County for questioning.

Wei Zhixian asked him why he harbored Zhao Meiniang, and he said he was helping a friend.

Wei Zhixian asked him why he instigated the Zhao family to identify the corpse, and he said it was to help a friend.

Wei Zhixian asked him why he forced the Zhao family to file a lawsuit, and he said he was helping a friend...

Wei Zhixian asked him why he sent someone to murder Wang Xian, and he said he was helping a friend...

Wei Zhixian is a clay figurine, and he also has a three-point earthy temperament. He couldn't help but sarcastically said, is it because you hide your beauty in the golden house to help your friends?

"Yes." Chang He nodded.It is simply Tianzi No. [-] with a warm heart.

"Then why did you run away? Do you intend to kill someone?" Wei Zhixian said coldly.

"Didn't I escape?" He Chang said shamelessly, "At that time, I wished I could tear Wang Er, who had falsely accused me, into pieces, but I thought it was against the law, so I stopped. Kicked down?"

Weizhi County had no choice but to order him to be detained temporarily.But He Chang said: "Honorable County, according to Lord Hongwu's regulations, the head of grain can pay money to avoid punishment. Please help me figure out how much I have to be fined for these crimes!" After finishing speaking, Shi Shiran went down went.

An imposing interrogation turned out to be so anticlimactic. When he returned to the back hall, Wei Zhixian was so sad that he was dying. Could it be that he was a scholar who was useless and screwed up again?

Master Sima comforted him: "Don't need to be like this, we have already succeeded, so why bother to blame?"
