Chapter 332
After thinking about it for a while, Mrs. Xu asked Dahe to exchange the silver for a basket of copper coins, and asked him to follow Shen Xiao's instructions and find a few idlers to spread the word.

As for the content that Shen Xiao explained first, he didn't involve Yue Shufen. He only said that when Da Mori returned home, he saw Tian Zhang and a few others troubleing Yue's family. As a result, a man named Mazi pretended to be dead, and then Da Sen was quickly arrested by the Yamen's arrest.

Da Sen was taken away by the people from the Yamen, but Mazi got up and ran away on the back, threatening that he had a backer in the county government, that he could frame anyone he wanted to, and rely on whomever he wanted...

It doesn't take much time to spread the word, and the gossip quickly spread to half of Jiangnan City by finding more people.

Mrs. Xu took Yin Fu to beat the drums to complain, while Mrs. Gu stayed at home to wait for the news, and passed on Mrs. Xu's words to Yue's mother and daughter, so that they both insisted that the person last night was here to force them to give up their land and house. of.

There is no way, the matter has come to this point, I can only do as Shen Xiao said.

The granddaughter is still in his hands!
"Who is kneeling in the hall, and what is wronged?"

The county magistrate of Jiangnan Prefecture saw that there was a crowd of common people outside the gate of the court, and the common people were pointing and pointing, as if they were discussing something, so he turned his head and told the master to ask someone to come out and ask.

"The woman Yin Xu, the woman's grandson Yin Dasen was arrested last night for no reason. He was arrested on the charge of beating someone to death. The woman dared to ask my lord, who did my grandson kill? Is there any witness? Is there a corpse? "

"Is there such a thing?" County magistrate Jiang Tao turned his head to ask the master, who shook his head, "My lord, I haven't heard of this. Since he was arrested last night, then ask the people in the class."

"Pass the class to the cell leader!" Jiang Tao gave the order.

The head of the cell soon came over, and Jiang Tao asked him, "Did a suspect named Yin Dasen be imprisoned last night? Why was he imprisoned?"

The head of the cell bowed and reported: "My lord, it is true that a suspect named Yin Dasen was taken into custody for the crime of fighting after the curfew."

"Fighting under curfew?" Jiang Tao elongated his voice, and he slapped his gavel: "Ms. Yin Xu, it was obviously a fight after curfew, but you said it was murder and you were arrested. Do you know what crime is for slandering the yamen?"

Yin Fu was startled by the sound of the gavel, but Mrs. Xu held it steady, and she said: "My lord, firstly, my grandson is driving away Xiaoxiao who has bad intentions for the neighbor, not a fight, and secondly. When this happened before the curfew, there was quite a commotion at that time, and the neighbors around heard it, and many neighbors came out to watch the excitement, if you don’t believe me, you can summon them!”

When they went to court, they said it was a fight, which shows that the other party has done such things a lot, and the county magistrate's expression changed after hearing the words 'curfew fight', maybe this was a secret signal between them.

really dirty.

"Also, if it was only after the curfew that people were fighting and arresting people, why didn't the other people be taken away by the police? Only my grandson was taken away?
Could it be that they colluded with the people in the yamen to make this happen only to harm my grandson?
My lord, I ask you to be the master of the women, there are too many doubts in this, I hope your lord will be clear about it, and restore the innocence of the women and grandchildren! "

The county magistrate looked at Mrs. Xu, this old woman is not easy to fool, and then took a look at the people outside... The master sent someone to find out what the people outside were talking about before, and what they were talking about was exactly this matter, including who Yin Dasen and his group of people who were captured all spoke clearly and clearly, with names and surnames.

This old woman came prepared.

"Why did the women beat the drums to protest their grievances? Why did they come up and ask the magistrates of the county that the grandson of the women's women would be taken away for murder? Didn't you just listen to the words of the arresting officers Hong and Cui, please be careful! "

"There are a lot of doubts about this matter. The official should investigate carefully. Let's stop here today and leave the court!" The county magistrate decided to use the dragging tactic.

"Since your lord said that there are many doubts at this time, what about the grandson of the civilian woman? Since he has no actual charges, should your lord still detain him?
If it's just a doubt about the 'curfew brawl', the adults will send someone to ask about it, it won't take much time! "Where is Mrs. Xu willing to quit the court, and give them time to bribe the neighbors after quitting the court?
"Bold and unruly..." The county magistrate was so angry that he patted the gavel.

Mrs. Xu straightened her back: "My lord, is the lady's request too much? Why is your lord so excited? The lady just asked you to send someone to ask what happened at that time, but your lord was so furious. Let the women be puzzled!"

When Mrs. Xu said this, the common people outside began to discuss it, and they all felt that what Mrs. Xu said was right.

The voice became louder and louder, and the county magistrate had no choice but to slap the gavel again: "Quiet!"

"Mr. Yin Xu dares to despise the court. Come, someone, drag it down and punish the twenty big boards!"

"No!" Yin Fu became impatient when he saw a yamen servant coming to drag Mrs. Xu, and he hurriedly leaned over to protect Mrs. Xu.

At this time, a middle-aged man wearing a scholar's shirt came in from outside the hall. He stepped into the court and looked at the county magistrate and said, "Master Jiang is such a powerful official, I have seen it!"

Jiang Tao's face turned pale when he saw this person, he hurriedly got up and walked down, bowed his hands and bowed to the person: "I have seen Mr. Zhou."

Jiangnan County is where the state capital is located, and it belongs to Shangxian County, so Jiang Tao's official rank is sixth rank, and the Lord Zhou he said is also sixth rank, but this week Lord Zhou is an inspector, and he supervises all officials on behalf of the emperor and supervises the administration of officials. Responsibility, great power in hand.

That's why Jiang Tao was so terrified, and even said he was dismissed.

"Don't dare, my rank is the same as Mr. Jiang's, but I dare not accept Mr. Jiang's gift." Zhou Xun moved sideways, and then said: "I just happened to go to the south of the Yangtze River. Since Mr. Jiang is here As for the trial, I will watch Master Jiang's trial."

Jiang Tao raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, he returned to the hall and sat down, and then ordered people to call all the arresters involved, as well as the people who fought with Yin Dasen at that time, as well as the mother and daughter of the Yue family. .

Don't say anything about withdrawing from the court for a closer investigation, and blaming Xu's family with a stick.

"Jinxiufang belongs to Shao's family?" Yin Tao thought it was such a coincidence?

Shao's family is Miss Mu Shi's natal family, and this Miss Mu Shi clings to Shen Xiao so tightly that she feels sorry for her in the street.

"Didn't it say that Shao's family is a boat operator?"

The person who helped Shen Xiao investigate this matter bowed and said: "If you want to go back to the girl, this Jinxiufang is the dowry of Shao Jingyi, Miss Shao's family. If it is in Jiangnan Mansion... it can be regarded as a small and medium-sized Xiufang. This kind of Xiufang Jiangnan Mansion has There are many." The implication is that this kind of small Xiufang is not a threat to Jiangning weaving, so Jiangning weaving doesn't take them seriously at all.

Anyway, the best embroiderers in the entire Jiangnan Prefecture are weaving in Jiangning.

Yin Tao understood what this man meant. The Shao family was right in sailing, but the sons and daughters also had some messy businesses, just like a modern consortium, with one main business and countless side businesses.

"Thank you very much!" Yin Tao put the purse on the table and pushed it in front of the man. The man took the purse, bowed to Shen Xiao and Yin Tao, and left.

"Where did you find that person?" Yin Tao asked Shen Xiao, and Shen Xiao said: "This person is the manager of Jiangning Weaving. They are most familiar with the embroidery workshop in Jiangnan Mansion. Okay, let's go, it's time for us to save your grandpa!"
