When they went to the court, they gave way to each other, and finally Chen Zibai took the main seat, while Qin Shou and Shen Butong sat on both sides to hear the trial with aggrieved faces.

"What is the situation in this case?"

Sitting in the chief seat, Chen Zibai quickly entered the role of chief judge and asked.

"Master Yu Shi, this man is a private salt dealer, known as Feng Lao Si, who framed his official position because his family was kidnapped and threatened by others."

Nie Hongshu explained the reason in class.

The two had studied together in the Imperial College back then, and they could be called the best couple.

However, Chen Zibai's talent and luck were better. After winning the examination, he joined the former Minister of Rites, and later passed the Jinshi examination, and was recommended by his teacher to be an official at Yushitai.

In fact, Nie Hongshu came to Guobei County to serve as the magistrate, and it was Chen Zibai who secretly asked someone to help him.

When Nie Hongshu returned home from the prison that day, he immediately passed the letter to Chen Zibai.

It's just that outsiders don't know.

"Fourth Feng, you are so courageous!"

After hearing the reason, Chen Zibai couldn't help but slapped the gavel.

"My lord, the little one is guilty, the little one is guilty"

"Master Yushi, please let Xiaosheng say a few words."

Gu Ming stood aside and cupped his hands.

"Oh? Let's hear it."

"According to Feng Lao Si's wife, Feng Lao Si has been selling illegal salt for two years. He was arrested once before, but was released by Lord Qin."

"Nonsense"

Qin Shou became impatient, and roared desperately.

"Master Qin, please restrain yourself, I am currently asking questions."

Chen Zibai cast a cold glance at Qin Shou and shouted.

"Yes, yes, I know my mistake, I know my mistake."

Qin Shou moaned and wiped away his cold sweat.

Gu Ming continued: "The reason why Mr. Qin released the fourth child is because he was instructed by Zhou Yuanwai to smuggle salt. Zhou Yuanwai and Mr. Qin have a lot of relationship."

"you"

Qin Shou was about to get mad again, but Chen Zibai glared at him just in time, and sat down quickly in fright.

The sweat on the head is getting more and more.

"My lord, the old man can testify to this matter."

Zheng Juren took a step forward, cupped his hands and said, "Actually, it's not just me, many people in the city know that Zhou Dafu is smuggling a lot of private salt for his own benefit.

It's just that, with Master Qin covering them, everyone just dared to be angry and dare not speak out. "

"The old man can also testify!"

"I'm still waiting"

All the squires spoke together.

Now, things got serious.

With so many squires testifying, it can be said to be ironclad evidence.

Qin Shou's legs trembled in fright, and he kept wiping his sweat with his hands, but he didn't dare to speak out to defend himself.

"Hehe, what a master Qin, come and take Zhou Dafu to court for trial!"

"Yes!"

Unexpectedly, at this time, Zeng Dehao stepped forward again and said: "My lord, in fact, Zhou Dafu is not the only one, but also his wife, Zhou Yushi. This woman has committed countless evils relying on her family status."

"Then bring them together for interrogation!"

at this time.

Zhou Yuanwai and his wife didn't know that disaster was imminent, and they were still sitting at home waiting for good news.

"As long as that surname Nie is convicted today, my mother will personally lead someone to arrest Gu Xiucai. Even if he is not killed, he will have to take off several layers of skin."

"That is that, dare to humiliate my wife Zhou, this kid is simply impatient."

"I don't know how the trial went."

"Madam, don't worry, with Lord Shen and Lord Qin here, are you still worried about the balance?"

As soon as he said this, the panicked voice of the servant girl came from outside.

"Master, madam, there are several poor men coming outside."

The funny thing is that the couple even looked at each other and smiled.

"Great, I must have come to report the good news."

"Go and have a look."

As a result, as soon as he walked into the courtyard, he felt that the atmosphere was not right.

Why is everyone so murderous, and there are two hands pinching the chain?

"Zhou Dafu, Zhou Yushi, we are here to arrest you two under the order of Lord Yushi!"

"What? Lord Censor?"

"Arrest?"

The couple were dumbfounded.

Seeing the two royal servants walking over shaking their chains, Yu Luohu's old problem recurred.

"Go away, old lady. My old lady is going to see Mr. Qin, who gave you the courage?"

I'm used to playing tricks on weekdays.

But this time, he hit the iron plate.

Although the yamen servants have benefited from the Zhou family on weekdays, who can't see the current situation clearly?

At that moment, there was a yamen servant who slapped him hard across the face: "How dare you resist arrest, you crazy woman?"

The slap made the tigress dizzy and vomited blood.

"Take it!"

With a roar, several other yamen servants, like tigers and wolves, stepped forward to hold down the tigress, and locked it neatly.

As for Zhou Yuanwai not using the lock, he fainted from fright.

Ask for a ticket

Chapter 47 A dog bites a dog, a hairy mouth...

"Ah? Is that the Zhou family's tigress?"

"Caught?"

"God has eyes, Zhou Papi was also arrested"

Along the way, the people rushed to tell each other, and many people followed along to the county government office to watch the excitement.

At the same time, some people boldly rushed forward to spit at the couple, smashed eggs, and threw rotten leaves

What's more, some people lit a series of firecrackers and followed behind to celebrate.

The invincible couple are like dead dogs, they don't even have the energy to walk, they are completely dragged away by the yamen servants forcibly, how can they have the strength to resist?

Mainly because of the psychological gap.

In an instant, I deeply felt what it was like to fall from the clouds to hell.

The sins I have committed are clearer than anyone else.

This time, I am afraid that I will never have the opportunity to enjoy the second half of my life.

"My lord, Zhou Dafu and his wife brought it here."

"Push up!"

"Yes!"

When they arrived in the hall, the couple were so dizzy that they simply closed their eyes and pretended to be dead.

But the yamen servants have a lot of ways to deal with this kind of dead dog.

He stepped forward and stepped on his foot, and the pain caused the two of them to sweat profusely and let out a miserable cry.

Chen Zibai patted the gavel, and shouted majestically, "Who is under the hall?"

"Xiaomin gets rich every week."

"Minister Zhou Zhouyu."

"Zhou Dafu, I'm asking you a question now, you have to answer honestly, or you'll be punished!"

"Yes, the villain must be recruited truthfully."

Zhou Dafu saw Qin Shou and Shen Butong deliberately not looking at him, knowing that there was no way to escape, so he decided to confess.

As soon as he opened his mouth, Qin Shou felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, wishing he could find a place to hide.

After all, there were too many transactions between him and Zhou Dafu.

According to the confession, Feng Lao Si had secretly smuggled salt for Zhou Dafu two years ago, making huge profits from it.

"Then, why do you want to frame Lord Nie?"

"This is because"

Zhou Dafu subconsciously glanced at Qin Shou.

"Zhou Dafu, this officer warns you, this is a court, you have to think about what you have to say before you speak."

Qin Shou couldn't hold back any longer, and roared desperately.

"Bang!" Chen Zibai slapped the gavel angrily, and shouted at Qin Shou: "Master Qin, I want you to discipline yourself, and if you disturb me to adjudicate the case again, don't blame me for being ruthless."

"Yes, the lower officials made mistakes, the lower officials made mistakes"

Qin Shou muttered with ashes on his face.

"Zhou Dafu, tell me, why did you frame Lord Nie?"

Zhou Dafu swallowed his saliva, gritted his teeth, and pointed at Qin Shou: "Master Yushi, all of this is Lord Qin's idea. He is the magistrate, how dare the villain not follow?"

"Hello Chow Tai Fu"

Qin Shou forgot the lesson again, or he jumped the wall in a hurry, and got up and slapped the table and yelled.

This completely angered Chen Zibai.

"Come here, take Master Qin to the hall and let him stand and listen to the trial!"

All the yamen servants looked at each other.

"Master Chen, I will go down by myself, go down by myself"

Qin Shou smiled miserably, and walked down the hall with trembling legs.

Anyway, he is also the parent official of Guobei County, but he capsized on his own territory, how aggrieved he feels in his heart?

This is not important anymore, what is important is that boundless fear wells up in my heart.

"Zhou Dafu, continue talking."

"In fact, this whole incident was initiated by Mr. Shen"

Zhou Dafu went all out and sold all of Shen Butong.
