"Zhu Yixuan! I am your wife! Is this how you treat me? I guessed it right, you really still have that bitch in your heart!" Cen Mingzhu broke the pot and directed all her grievances at Zhu Yixuan.
When the couple was making a fuss, the official had already come in.
"Mr. Cen, please come with us and don't make things too difficult for us." The official's face was expressionless, and his title changed from Madam Cen to "Ms. Cen". This shows that the government really does not intend to give General Cen face.
Zhu Yixuan's expression changed slightly. He glanced at Cen Mingzhu, who had not yet figured out the situation. He stepped forward and politely handed over his hand, "I have kept you two gentlemen waiting for a long time. My wife is going out right now. I wonder what my wife has done?"< br>
The official saw that Zhu Yixuan was really ignorant and sympathized with him inexplicably, "Mr. Zhu, your wife broke into a private house today and injured her. It doesn't matter if she didn't take advantage of it. She even bribed local gangsters to come and cause trouble. Those The rogue has already told everything.”
Cen Mingzhu's face changed slightly, she glared at Xiaoshuang fiercely, and denied it, "I admit that I beat those two untouchables, and bribed the local gangsters? Do you have any evidence?"
The officer said without changing his expression: "Your Majesty the County Magistrate has found all the evidence and no one who should be arrested has been caught. Four ruffians were killed and a human life was lost. This matter cannot be resolved."
"A life was lost?" Zhu Yixuan was shocked and glared at Cen Mingzhu, "What on earth did you do? Tell me!"
"How did I know that those untouchables were so unreasonable and dared to kill people! Quick! Kill them quickly, otherwise I will not be able to live a peaceful life." Cen Mingzhu covered her chest with a look of fear on her face, and her words were very vicious.
If Zhu Yixuan hadn't had a shred of sense left, he would have slapped him away, "Ms. Cen! This is Zhaohua County, not your Cen family's territory! Our Cen family is just a merchant family! We speak and do things before our minds."
Cen Mingzhu rolled her eyes in disgust, confidently saying, "What are you afraid of! My father is here, what does it matter if I kill a little county magistrate? Look how scared you are!"
Zhu Yixuan was really about to vomit blood and roared angrily: "Come here! Tie the lady up and take her to court!"
"Zhu Yixuan, how dare you!" Cen Mingzhu's eyes widened in disbelief, "If you hadn't still been obsessed with that bitch Ke, why would I have done this!"
"Ke Shi? Mingzhu, I remember I told you that Ke Shi has nothing to do with me anymore!" Zhu Yixuan was filled with anger and had nowhere to vent, so he had to calm down and deal with Cen Mingzhu.
Cen Mingzhu stomped her feet excitedly, "Fart! I saw it all, everyone is gone, and you still go to the place where she lives to miss her. Is this what you call no relationship? Zhu Yixuan, you don't even dare to admit such a thing, you Not even a man!”
"Madman! What a madman!" Zhu Yixuan didn't want to continue messing around with Cen Mingzhu. He glanced at the yamen who would not give up until Cen was taken away. He clenched his fists and asked his mother-in-law to escort Cen Mingzhu and Xiaoshuang out. Even the coachman was not spared.
Cen Mingzhu had never been humiliated like this when she was growing up. As soon as she got her freedom in the court, she started pointing at the magistrate's nose and yelling, "Guan Guan, do you know who my father is? He is a fifth-rank general of the imperial court. This time he has established a Great job, you will be promoted soon. If you dare to offend me, I will definitely let my father kick you out of your position as county magistrate! I will remember you, you fools!"
Cen Mingzhu glared fiercely at the officials who escorted her here, threatening them wildly.
It was the first time for the people who gathered outside the court to see such an arrogant person. They all stayed away and did not dare to point fingers and make irresponsible remarks.
Duan Ren's face was gloomy, and he felt a little worried, but when he thought about it, the Shen family was protected by Marquis Yong'an, and the Cen family would not dare to mess around no matter what, and he felt a little more stable. He slapped the alarm hard and said, "Ms. Cen, Mrs. Su of the Shen family is suing you for breaking into private houses, beating the villagers of Shenjiazhuang, and bribed local gangsters to come and cause trouble. Can you plead guilty?"
Cen Mingzhu sneered, stroked her messy bun, and laughed wildly, "So what? They are just a few untouchables. They just need to pay some money. Is it necessary to make a big fuss?"
"Untouchable? Mr. Cen, the untouchables in your eyes are all good people, protected by the laws of Langya Kingdom. If I were to deliver your words to heaven today, do you think there is still hope for your father, Cen Yingfan, to be promoted?" Duan Ren is not salty. He raised his eyebrows nonchalantly.
Cen Mingzhu's face instantly darkened, "You threaten me? Just you?"
Duan Ren laughed dumbly, with a trace of sadness on his face, "General Cen's great reputation will be ruined in the hands of your daughter, who doesn't know how to be generous! Fortunately, you are now the wife of the Zhu family, and only the Zhu family will be responsible for the trouble you cause. ”
Zhu Yixuan's face tightened, and he quickly knelt down and confessed, "Your Excellency, County Magistrate, I didn't know what my wife did, and I don't know what the situation is now. I can come forward to make amends for my wife, no matter how much money it costs."
"Silver? Hehe Zhu Yixuan, I know that your Zhu family is not short of silver, but some people cannot be settled with silver. What Cen has offended is the powerful people in the dynasty. Not to mention you, even Cen Yingfan can't do it! You are now It’s better to think of ways to protect yourself first!”
Seeing that Zhu Yixuan's attitude was pretty good, Duan Ren kindly gave him a few reminders.
Zhu Yixuan's face turned a little pale again, and he was still a little frightened, "Sir, the powerful people in the dynasty are..."
Why didn't he know that there were still powerful people in Zhaohua County? What on earth did that bitch Cen Mingzhu do?
Duan Ren thought of Liu Laosan's reminder, shook his head meaningfully, and asked the master to bring a charge sheet to Cen Mingzhu, and said unhurriedly: "Ms. Cen, since you have pleaded guilty, let's hold it in custody!"
"Wait, you can't sign!" Zhu Yixuan stepped forward to stop him and begged urgently: "Sir, I want to come forward to negotiate with the Shen family first and apologize for my mistake. If the Shen family is not satisfied, I won't say anything if they insist on reporting it to the official."< br>
Duan Ren gritted his teeth, hating that iron could not be made into steel, "Confused! I have already said it, and now a life has been lost! How can you keep it private? Do you think the court's decree is just a show? What Cen committed is all true, and she also confessed, You must make a pledge so that I can give an explanation to the suffering owner and the people! As for what you plan to do, that is your business and I don’t care.”
If it weren't for the fact that the Zhu family was the largest family in Zhaohua County, he wouldn't have wanted to talk so much nonsense to Zhu Yixuan.
Zhu Yixuan knew that there was no hope of stopping him, so he could only watch as Cen Mingzhu was escorted by officers to have his fingerprints pressed and put into a dungeon.
Only then did Cen Mingzhu realize that she was afraid. She held on to Zhu Yixuan's clothes and said, "Husband, you can't ignore me. Please save me, my dad! Find my dad! My dad won't just sit idly by and do nothing! Please let me go." Go find my father!”
Zhu Yixuan clenched his fists tightly and watched Cen Mingzhu being dragged away.
This time, not only was Cen Mingzhu embarrassed, but the Zhu family also lost their reputation. (End of chapter)
