Crossing the Homeland

Chapter 73

"Bah! You are guilty of being a thief!" Liu Wu saw that the maid was good-looking, so he personally received her.In addition, the little maid said sweet words a few times, saying that if she was a weak woman who came to the gambling shop and was seen by others, her reputation would be ruined. Liu Wu was so fascinated by the little maid that his heart trembled. He didn't want such a lovely lady After being seen by others, he always met with the maid in private, and there was no one else around.

Li Chun'e said: "On that day, Miss Xia came to my cloth village with Mrs. Fang's family. I didn't know that Miss Xia would come, so how could I report to the gambling house? The street is busy, the location is very good, and there are many merchants around. There are so many people, it must be the kid from the gambling shop who saw Miss Xia enter my cloth shop. They broke into the cloth shop and wounded several of the clerks. All the shops around at that time knew about these things, and the county magistrate only needed to inquire about them. I saw that Miss Xia was cornered by them. But when I left, I gave out money to save the siege. Later, Miss Xia returned the 100 taels of silver notes to me, and I also handed over the IOU to Miss Xia."

The county magistrate nodded, and said in a deep voice, "Liu Wu, what else do you have to say!"

"I..." Liu Wu was speechless, looked at Xia Junyan again, and said desperately: "Miss Xia, this bitch is obviously talking nonsense! It was his maid who tipped off the news that day. This woman came when she was born. This woman couldn't bear a son, and she was afraid that her husband would play tricks outside, so she thought of finding a concubine for her husband. In order to hold the concubine in her hands, she deliberately used this poisonous trick! And that Cheng, um..." Liu Wu's mouth was gagged again.

The county magistrate was very angry, two more cases were brought out by pulling out two people, if this guy wants to continue talking, wouldn't it be many more cases?Originally, it was just a trivial matter of a village girl owed money, if it wasn't because it was involved in the above, who cares about this crap.Return the silver to the village girl and close the case quickly.

Li Chun'e looked calm, this was the reason she made up in order to join forces with Liu Wu.Unexpectedly, Liu Wu would say everything in order to survive.She was worried when she heard the news that a group of bandits had been caught in the county government office, but seeing the current situation, I'm afraid the county magistrate didn't ask any questions from the bandits, otherwise she wouldn't just kneel here to answer.

"My lord magistrate, although women don't know a few words, they have served their husbands and parents-in-law for so many years. Although they are not as good as those virtuous women who are praised by others, they still think they have a clear conscience! Although Zhou Ji Buzhuang is not It’s big, but there is still money to buy a concubine’s room. The concubine’s room in the back house and the deed of sale are all in the hands of the mistress, so why should I go through such a big trouble?”

All the men present had families, and they took this seriously.What's more, Xia Junyan looked dry and thin, she didn't look like a man at all, but she added a pair of chopsticks for nothing when she entered the door.

"Okay, this case ends here. You said that the Zhou family wanted to frame the Xia family, but you couldn't produce evidence. It is clear that you were greedy and dissatisfied with the mere hundred taels of silver, so you planted the frame. Come on! If you drag it on, you will be held accountable for [-] big boards! Put it in a prison and wait to be punished!"

The county magistrate stroked his beard, and after half a day of interrogation, he was also tired.He waved his hand to let everyone back down.
