Chapter 419 Retribution
However, Er Shuan is just a junior from the lower level below him, and is not qualified to contact him, so County Lieutenant Yang can safely look directly at Er Shuan and ask: "You are from the Wu family Servant Er Shuan? Have you done anything to feel sorry for Huang Xia Niang? What happened to Huang Xi Niang in recent days? "Often?"
And warned: "Be honest, if you dare to conceal and cover anyone's crime, you are not the victim, but the criminal, and you will not be spared with a heavy sentence!"
Er Shuan's heart! Bang... When Yang County Lieutenant said this, he believed that the Wu family had harmed Huang Xianniang, so Huang Xianniang took up the sword to take revenge?
Er Shuan was very confused, but he was not really a servant after all, so he was just shocked and told Lieutenant Yang again what he had said in his confession.
Finally, he knelt down and cried out: "Sir, I suspect that Huang Xianiang has gone insane because she ran away from famine. This is an unreasonable disaster for me. I beg you to make the decision for me!" Even if everything they said is not true, then they have never bullied Huang Xianniang in turn, then they are kind people who are very kind to Huang Xianniang.
The thing that happened this time was that Huang Xianiang was mentally disturbed, so she raised a knife and killed these good people!
Evil people will not reflect and will only blame the victim. This is the case with Er Shuan.
"Well, go down and wait. The yamen will find out the truth. Who is right and who is wrong. Sooner or later it will be daylight." Seeing that Er Shuan did not lose his mind and could still deal with it calmly, County Lieutenant Yang finally felt relieved and waved his hand. Let the second bolt go down.
County Lieutenant Yang would call Er Shuan in for questioning because he was afraid that the brat wouldn't be able to bear the blow and would talk nonsense and ruin his long-established business.
“Yes, thank you very much, sir!” Er Shuan wiped his tears and stepped back, acting like an innocent victim.
"Lord County Lieutenant, this is the confession of Wu Sixheng and others." Guan Shuli brought the new confession.
Yang Xianwei took the confession, took a cursory look at it, and asked: "Where are the confessions of the Huang sisters?"
Guan Shuli replied: "We are short of manpower, so we haven't recorded them yet. Oral confession.”
But he recorded Huang Cainiang's previous shouting and now handed it to County Lieutenant Yang to read.
After looking at it, Yang Xianwei frowned... If what Huang Cainiang said was true, then the Wu and Wu chess pieces would be completely useless.
"Continue to record statements for them, and I will lead people to search Wu's house." County Lieutenant Yang got up and led a few soldiers to search Wu's house.
He mainly searched the house where Wu Lichang slept.
The seal of the inner room was torn, and County Lieutenant Yang led people in to conduct a search.
"Sir, the blue bricks on the wall can be removed... There is medicinal powder inside... Please take a look."
Yang County Lieutenant took the powder, smelled it, and immediately put the powder away... He smelled it, and this It was a very powerful drug. They were afraid of an accident when they got sick, so they took the antidote given by the yamen, otherwise they would be knocked out.
"Sir, there is medicine here too." The soldier showed him a few more packets of medicine.
Yang County Lieutenant took it and smelled it again. His nose immediately felt hot and even stinging... This should be a medicine for bad guys to mute their throats.
"Sir, there is hidden gold here, the size of a finger, more than a dozen pieces!" Xiao Bing was excited.
"Receive it in the box from the county government as evidence and return it to the Wu family after the case is concluded." County Lieutenant Yang ordered, leading the soldiers to the inner room, outer room, warm hall, and cubicle where Wu Li Chang slept. After a quick search, three full boxes of stuff were found.
The soldiers sighed: "So many things can be found in a long sleeping room, half of which are gold and silver."
This old man is really good at hiding things.
The more the soldiers looked at the gold and silver, the more they felt something was wrong, and blurted out: "The Wu family has no property, where did this gold and silver come from? Isn't it unclean?"
Mr. Gong Qi Gang led his troops into the courtyard after searching Er Er, and came over to reply. After hearing this, he said Said: "I guess it is the money that Mr. Wu earned outside... When Wu Lichang was a child, because his family was poor, he went to other places to find a way to make a living. Later, he returned home in rich clothes." After hearing this, the soldiers felt that something was wrong: "Isn't this Mr. Wu? Have you done any bad things in other places?”
Gong Zongqi said: "Wu Lichang became rich and returned to his hometown, causing a sensation in every town. I heard that the county government at that time also checked him, but nothing was found."
"It's almost noon, stop talking nonsense, seal the things in the box, and get ready to go back to the county office." County Lieutenant Yang urged.
At this moment, he felt at ease.
He hurried over and went into the house to search himself, just because he was afraid that the people below would find something he shouldn't have. Now that he had taken care of it, there was no need to be afraid.
"Yes!" General Gong Qi and the others responded, carried their things, and went to the main hall.
Another hour later, the investigation of the crime scene was completed.
Yang County Lieutenant summoned all the people in the public sect, including the village chief, the village chief, and people from Xue Yan’s family, and said: "This case is shocking, and it happened at the time of the amnesty. The county Your Majesty is outraged. I must quickly escort the criminals, witnesses, and evidence back to the county government office. The peace of Wujiacun and Taifeng Town will be left to you for the time being."
"You must guard the villages and towns, and don't make any mistakes again, otherwise the government will have a hard time, and your Taifeng town will have a bad reputation."
Yang County Lieutenant pointed at Team Leader Zhou again and said to Everyone said: "Team leader Zhou is from your Taifeng town. He will stay in Wujiacun with his government servants. The children of Wujiacun must cooperate with him on his errands and not make trouble."
"...Yes." Although the Wu family was angry, they were also afraid of the people in the yamen, so they responded honestly.
But several elders of the Wu family knelt down again: "Master County Captain, you must make the decision for our Wu family. Our good village chief has been so useless, and so many people have died. You must We must be given justice and the Wu family’s loss cannot be in vain, otherwise it will The outsiders have gained the prestige!”
“If we don’t punish those outsiders severely, they may think that we locals are easy to bully, and they may commit another big crime!”
This is a sure thing! All the survivors who have fled the famine and settled in the disaster have vicious intentions.
Guan Shuli couldn't help it anymore and said: "Old Wu Liukui, there are good and bad people everywhere. You can't kill them all with one shot... The Yamen will definitely punish those who commit evil crimes, but I didn't do it. The government will only protect the out-of-towners who do evil things.”
Wu Liukui said angrily: "Secretary Guan, so many people have died, and you still speak for outsiders? They didn't kill your Guan family, so don't your back hurt just standing and talking?!"
"Shut up!" Yang Xianwei yelled at Wu Liukui angrily: "Guan Shuli is a member of the Yamen. He has always done things impartially, and what Guan Shuli said is right."
Yang Xianwei said softly: " Okay, you Wu family members should also go and prepare. The elders will bring their capable disciples and follow us back to the county office to meet the county magistrate. If you have any grievances, you can tell the county magistrate in person. "
After hearing this, Wu Liukui gave up and said, "Thank you, Lord County Lieutenant!"
"Okay, everyone will perform their duties." After County Lieutenant Yang finished speaking, he asked everyone to disperse and do their work.
The injured Huang Wushi, Huang Guilu, Wu Xingzu, Wu Lichang and other injured people were also carried to the open space in the front yard, preparing to leave for the county government.
Wu Lichang is really stubborn. He is not dead yet. He is lying on the wooden board, cursing in a low voice: "Kill Huang Xianniang, kill that bitch... white-eyed wolf, ungrateful The beast... cut her into pieces and sold her to be a prostitute..."
I kept saying all kinds of vicious words, but I scolded him so hard that I was so tired that I vomited blood.
Lu Pangsan was speechless and advised: "Wu Lichang, please take it easy and stop scolding."
If you continue to scold me, I'm afraid you will tire yourself to death.
