Confucius businesswoman: proud of the world

Chapter 66
The gates of the county government offices have long been crowded, and the gates of the county government offices are opened to facilitate the people to watch the trial process. This is not a new thing in the past dynasties, but it is absolutely new in Xianyang. Many old people, this is still First time watching the case.

Xianyang is used to peace. Before one person died, there was already an uproar. Now, in broad daylight, more than a dozen cartloads of corpses were pulled in. Many people brought their families with them, and everyone, old and young, crowded in.

When they saw more than a dozen corpses covered in white cloth densely packed in the hall of the county government office, everyone gasped.

And with so many people dying all of a sudden, it was inevitable that all the people would panic.

Mr. Wang was dressed in an official uniform, and sat on the chair majestically. Although Mr. Wang was not a parent official with a sense of justice, the sudden shake of his official authority still made people feel majestic.Sure enough, being an official is still different, after all, the county magistrate.

The gavel slapped, and Master Wang shouted loudly: "Ascension hall!"

The yamen servants on both sides hadn't yelled this voice for many years, and suddenly they opened their voices, and it was very addictive: "Mighty!"

When Kong Linglong's carriage arrived at the gate of the county government office, Master Wang's eyes lit up, and he immediately said, "Miss Kong, come in quickly!"

When the crowd heard this, Miss Kong actually came too?

Looking back, he saw the Kong family's carriage, and then Kong Linglong who was helped down by Yu'er.

Kong Linglong's expression was indifferent, and nothing unusual could be seen.The yamen servant even cut a way through the crowd, respectfully inviting Kong Linglong in.

Yu'er's face turned pale: "Miss?"

Kong Linglong squeezed the Dan book in her sleeve, and said coldly, "Let's go in and have a look."

The yamen servants immediately opened the way and led Kong Linglong in.

Once in the lobby, it was full of corpses, and there was no place to plug in. Yu'er accidentally kicked a corpse on the head, her face turned pale, but she tried not to cry out, and chose to ask in a low voice: "Miss...why, Why are there so many dead people?"

Kong Linglong squeezed her hand and said, "Don't be afraid. In this world, dead people are the least threatening."

The dead are the last thing to be afraid of, no matter how villainous they were in life, they are just rotten meat after death.

Yu'er gritted her teeth and tried her best to raise her head so as not to touch the corpse on the ground.

Kong Linglong stared at County Magistrate Wang. She was not stupid. The county magistrate called her to come here. Only the sufferer and the defendant are eligible to go to court. So this murder case has something to do with her.

And the case that could be related to her, Kong Linglong, was naturally that one.

Mr. Wang is very polite: "Hurry up and move a chair for Miss Kong."

The yamen servants hurriedly lifted a chair and put it right next to Kong Linglong. At this time, the people watching outside had a discussion, "Why did Mr. Wang invite Miss Kong here?"

The one who claimed to be smart immediately said: "Didn't Ms. Kong come to the county government to identify the corpse some time ago? This must be the case of Mr. Suye's murder."

Someone felt that it made sense, and suddenly looked at the densely packed corpses, and said in fear: "Didn't you say that only Mr. Suye died, so where did so many dead people come from?"

Someone said: "It seems that this is a bandit, who seeks money and kills, maybe it is."

Mr. Wang has been so noticed all his life, and he is nervous and sweating coldly, but he still has a strange sense of pride. He has been an official for so many years, and today he finally found a little sense of being an official.Floating in the air, he unconsciously brought a bit of confidence when speaking.

"Everyone, the reason why this county was promoted to trial the case today is because a group of thieves and bandits have sneaked into our Xianyang County to seek wealth and death. Fortunately, the heavens are fair. Insufficient greed led to cannibalism, and in the end they all ended up with different heads. The county brought back the corpses overnight. Today, this group of thieves will be brought to justice. All the corpses will be examined and handed over, and sealed together with the files. Sent to the Ministry of Criminal Justice."

Thieves? !Dozens of people died?Unequal distribution of spoils and cannibalism?

All the judges blinked their eyes, why did they think it was so mysterious and unrealistic?

But the magistrate was serious and said, "Come here, bring your witness."

There are still witnesses?Everyone was even more surprised now.That's right, in such a big case, so many people died, it's too childish to say cannibalism, people die cleanly.

Sure enough, there was a person who was brought up from the back of the hall by two yamen servants. Is that the witness?
Everyone stretched their necks to look around, and at first glance, they felt that this witness seemed too handsome.Looking at it again, someone was startled, "Well, this witness seems to have seen it?"

Suye raised her head and smiled at Master Wang from a distance.

Master Wang's heart skipped a beat.Feeling a little guilty, I remembered what I swore to him last night, "Lord Wang, you don't have to worry at all, because there have always been testimonies and evidences before a case can be settled, and I am your witness. No matter what happens, there will be I will bear it with you."

It was also because of this sentence that Mr. Wang finally decided to go all out, and at this moment, Suye was obviously fulfilling his promise.

In the lobby, Kong Linglong looked at Su Ye. Yu'er rubbed her eyes several times before hugging Kong Linglong's hand in surprise, and said with a sore nose, "Master Su Ye? Miss, is it Mr. Su Ye? Is your servant right?"

Kong Linglong stared at Suye, as if he hadn't seen him for six or seven days. He looked a little more frugal. There seemed to be some stains on the clothes on his body, but other than that, he couldn't see anything unusual .

Just when Kong Linglong's eyes turned cold, Suye looked over, and that expression moved Yu'er beside her a little.

Although Suye only looked at Kong Linglong briefly, the tenderness in his eyes seemed as if he and Kong Linglong had not seen each other for many years.

Mr. Wang coughed dryly: "Young Master Suye, you should tell Miss Kong... tell everyone what happened to you in the past few days."

Hearing this call, the people outside looked at each other like sleepwalking, "Is it really Mr. Su Ye?"

"Didn't you say... died?"

"Lord Wang said just now that the dozen or so people who died were all thieves, and they killed each other because of the uneven distribution of spoils."

"Then Mr. Su Ye is this?"

Everyone woke up like a dream, and collectively looked at Kong Linglong who was sitting quietly in the lobby and almost made people forget their existence.Everyone knows how much Miss Kong spent the past few days looking for Mr. Suye. When she learned of Mr. Suye's death, Ms. Kong was heartbroken. People have been in a trance and can't speak.

So Miss Kong's silence now means that she is overjoyed?

Suye turned her eyes away from Kong Linglong, no matter what, she had to finish singing today's play first.

Suye faced the court, his eyes met Lord Wang's subtly, and then, the corner of his mouth curled up almost invisible, and he said in a clear voice that everyone could hear: "I was tied up by these thieves for the past few days, and I was forced to Handing over the money that bought my life, I have nothing in my lower body, I really can't get the money, I'm already ready to die in peace."

The common people listened with their ears up, listening to Master Wang's meaning that this bandit came from another place, why is it that Mr. Su Ye is so unlucky that he met this bandit without anyone around him?

Mr. Wang forced himself to show a "concern" look: "Then how did this group of thieves kill each other because of the uneven distribution of spoils?"

Suye sighed, and already had an extra fan in his hand: "I have an ancestral fan pendant. The bandit leader took it and looked at it, and said it was very valuable, and even agreed to keep it as agreed. But what I didn't expect was... "

"How?" Mr. Wang asked eagerly, he also wanted to know the follow-up on this matter.

Su Ye looked at the hall, frowned and said: "The leader actually wanted to take the fan pendant by himself, so he didn't tell the other thieves that when he was going to put it down, he was discovered by the other thieves, which sparked a dispute. Unexpectedly, the dispute lasted for a long time. They started fighting with each other, and in the end they killed the leader together, and in order not to be recognized by others, they even scratched the leader's face and threw it into the moat."

moat?Everyone thought at the same time that the person who misunderstood Su Ye a few days ago was the real reason. That corpse turned out to be the leader of this group of thieves? !

Lord Wang showed an indignant look: "This gang of thieves is really cruel and inhumane. Apart from money, they have no lives at all!"

Su Ye sighed again: "If it's just like this, it's fine. Those people killed the leader and got my fan pendant, but soon there was a dispute again, because my fan pendant can't be pawned at once, and it's impossible for everyone to share it. I don’t know how they negotiated, but after waking up overnight, they have already started fighting with swords again, and neither of them is willing to back down.”

This is really a story about a group of thieves arguing over a fan pendant, but is the fan pendant made of gold or silver?

All the people have an unreal feeling in their hearts.

Even Mr. Wang felt that he couldn't hold back his face. Did he believe in this Su Ye's deceit because he was bewitched by evil spirits? He didn't make up a decent story. No matter how valuable a broken fan pendant is, it can make more than a dozen people give it away for disputes. Life?What kind of gold and silver is that?
But the play has already sung to this point, Mr. Wang wanted to cry without tears, squeezed out words from between his teeth and asked Su Ye: "I don't know what the master's fan pendant is made of, so it is so valuable?"

This simply asked the hearts of the crowd of onlookers, they were all staring at the fan in Su Ye's hand, at this time the bottom of the fan was naturally empty, and there was no fan pendant.

Su Ye slowly took out a small pendant with red tassels from her sleeve, and said to Mr. Wang, "It's this one."

Mr. Wang was about to explode when he saw it, that broken pendant was at most the thickness of a thumb, and those dozen or so people were crazy to fight for such a broken thing and even die.

At this time, a warm voice came from the crowd: "I am also very curious, what kind of rare treasure is this fan pendant, Mr. Su Ye, that can be worth more than a dozen lives?"

Everyone followed the prestige, and saw that the speaker was leaning against the door frame at this time, and it seemed that the people of Xianyang had a halo automatically in the eyes of the people of Xianyang, the eldest son of the Liu family, Liu Shao.
