Zuo Li had an official sword on his waist and asked several questions in succession.

He glanced around seriously.

"Grass, grass people are, are..."

Zhang Furen's voice was small and slightly trembling.

I don’t know if it’s because I’m scared or scared.

"The common people didn't beat anyone. It's all this cunning woman's nonsense. I'm afraid she's gone crazy. Master, please don't accuse a good person. She's blackmailing me. Otherwise, where did this gold and expensive clothes and jewelry come from? I'm afraid They were all blackmailed for money."

Zhang Furen saw that Yan Xia called this poor boy nephew, and thought Wang Yuanshan was from her mother's side.

I was secretly relieved.

It doesn't seem like a wealthy family.

She does look quite good-looking, and some people call her Shopkeeper Yan. She can't be the flower mother in the brothel.

He doesn't look like a serious person. He is only as old as his nephew.

Maybe this boy is not even a member of his mother's family, is he his lover?

Zhang Furen's eyes were like a mountain road with eighteen turns, revealing contempt.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a lot of noise around him.

"Hahaha, I'm laughing so hard at this Zhang Furen. He's the shopkeeper of Yan's pastry shop. Is he short of your money? He makes a lot of money every day. I'm blackmailing you. Don't make me laugh out loud."

"That's right, I just bought a birthday cake from Shopkeeper Yan a few days ago for my little daughter's birthday. A cake no bigger than a head costs several taels of silver. Shopkeeper Yan is blackmailing someone? What a big joke. She sells A few cakes are enough to support your shop's revenue for many days. Are you blackmailing you? You're really going to put money on your face."

"Hey, you bought a birthday cake. How does it taste? My two daughters also clamored for me to buy it for them, but the price is too expensive. It is enough for our family of six to chew for three months. After all, they couldn't bear it. "

"It's very delicious. Brother, you must try it. Birthdays only happen once a year. If you have some spare money at home, you'd better buy one. Don't let your daughters down. They will have a happier life before they get married. .”

"What my dear friend said is that I will go to Shopkeeper Yan's shop to make a reservation in two days and buy one for each of my two daughters."

"........"

The topics discussed in the crowd became more and more biased, and everyone started talking about cake.

Yan Xia coughed twice.

"Cough-cough-"

"This Zhang Furen behaves domineeringly and is so arrogant. He has probably done a lot of bad things. Are there any victims? You can come forward and don't be afraid. Zuo Yamen is here and he will give you justice. If you were raped in the past, Anyone who was beaten and insulted by Zhang Furen should come and be recorded by Zuo Yamen. This evil person must be punished severely, and it is best not to come out of prison for the rest of his life!"

As soon as these words came out, the people who originally only dared to curse a few words in the crowd came to Zuo Li and expressed their sorrow.

Some were beaten by Zhang Ji's grain shop, some were deducted from their titles when buying grain from Zhang Ji, some worked for free and didn't get a penny of wages, and some almost died after eating moldy rice noodles from his shop.

The number of victims turned out to be more than ten.

But no one dared to go to the county government to sue him.

It turned out that they were all threatened by Zhang Furen. From their mouths, they learned that Zhang Furen once threatened that if he was killed and imprisoned, he would kill their whole family on the day he was released from prison.

They thought that if they were just beating people, they would be jailed for two or three years at most. If Zhang Furen's family was harmed and everyone was killed, it would be a big loss. After all, they had lived in Shuangqiao Town all their lives.

You can find your home address just by asking around.

These people were afraid, so naturally they didn't dare to cause trouble.

But what Yan Xia said just now meant that if multiple charges were added together, Zhang Furen might not be able to be released from prison in his lifetime, so what do they have to fear? They must sue.

So Zuo Li was surrounded by people.

Zhang Ji Liang Shop has two shopkeepers.

They both have the surname Zhang, one is Zhang Furen and the other is Zhang Fuyi, two brothers.

On weekdays, if Zhang Furen is in the shop, Zhang Fuyi will go to tease the birds to eat flowers and wine; if Zhang Furen goes to the north to collect grain, Zhang Fuyi will guard the shop.

The two brothers were of the same mind.

There were hundreds of people watching.

Almost all the people living in the surrounding area came to eat melons.

After getting the evidence of Zhang Furen's crime, Zuo Li closed the net.

He captured everyone in Zhang Ji's grain store, including Zhang Fuyi, who was still resting in the kiln.

Returning to the county government office, he reported it directly to the county magistrate.

The county magistrate was promoted to court in the morning.

Those people who had been persecuted by Zhang Ji's grain store were waiting at the county government office gate.

Has given witness.

"mighty--"

After being raised to the court, witnesses came in one by one to complain. The Zhang Furen brothers were ashen-faced. They did not dare to quibble anymore. With so many witnesses, even with eight mouths, they couldn't explain clearly.

It's over.

It's really over now. If I had known it, I would have closed the grain store and opened a store in the north.

If it weren't for the fact that the magistrate there was too corrupt and the officials liked to collect protection money, and he had refused to move the grain store in order to make more money.

It wouldn’t have ended up like today.

"Master Qingtian, you are aware that I have made a mistake. Please ask the county magistrate to give me a lighter punishment. I am willing to donate all the food in the shop, just to reduce the punishment..."

Zhang Furen knew the laws of the government very clearly.

He felt that as long as he took the initiative to admit his mistake and donated food to show his sincerity, he would be able to get out after squatting for a year or two at most.

But he underestimated Lu Zhixian.

"Donate? All your property has been confiscated. What can you donate? Someone, bring that woman up!"

Magistrate Lu sneered.

Woman?

The two Zhang brothers were confused as to why they wanted to prove their identity again.

And what happened with the confiscation of family property? They just beat up a few low-lifes.

Why was it confiscated?

Why?

Just when the two of them were confused and angry, the woman was helped into the hall.

"Wow——"

"Please make the decision, sir. It was him. He was the one who killed my husband and my son. My poor husband, who was less than thirty, left early. His corpse failed to enter the village. He was alone. He died outside the village. He died miserably. There was not a single piece of meat on his body, his face was bruised and bruised, and he died with no eyes open. I know he was waiting for me to seek justice for him——"

"Sir, he was the one who beat my husband to death and robbed my family of food. My son had no money to take medicine. He went with my husband. There were three of us in the family. Two of them were gone. I am still alive. What do you mean? This kind of evil person should go to hell. King Yama, please open your eyes and take him to the eighteenth level of hell——"

"Uuuuuu——"

The woman became crazy when she saw Zhang Furen.

Her lower body was bleeding from walking.

But as if he couldn't feel the pain, he knelt straight on the ground.

Kowtow and cry.

After a while, there was blood on his forehead.

Magistrate Lu waved his hand.

Two cadres pulled her up.

Don't knock her again.
