He acted on impulse and made things worse.

But in the final analysis, it was just a joke for the people in the mansion to see. He only needed to issue a death order to keep them silent, and he thought they would not dare to tell anyone.

But now it’s different to report to the police.

What if Li Gui doesn't control his mouth and tells everything? How will he face people in the future?

As a result, what you fear will come true. When Li Gui saw that Steward Li and the constable had arrived, he immediately complained: "Dad... please save my son quickly. The old master is crazy and wants to beat my son to death..."

"What the hell is going on?"

"Someone framed my son and Aunt Zhou for an affair. The master misunderstood and refused to listen to my explanation. He wanted to lynch me!"

"You fart!"

Shen Cang originally wanted to keep the peace for the time being and wait until the officials left before doing anything else.

But this bastard Li Gui threw all the dirty water on him and accused him of "taking human life lightly". How could he not be angry!

Therefore, he did not bother to cover up and quickly explained: "It is obvious that you two are an adulterous couple and I caught you red-handed. How dare you confuse right and wrong!"

After hearing this, Butler Li was so shocked that he fainted from the shock.

But at this moment, no one cared about him.

Qian Chuan bowed to Shen Cang and said, "Since Doctor Shen said that the two of them committed adultery, please write a petition and submit it to the adults tomorrow."

According to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, any adulterer could be lynched by his family members.

The same goes for a family-born child like Li Gui.

But if the case is reported to the police and the defendant refuses to admit it, Shen Cang can no longer interfere.

Qian Chuan looked at Li Gui's neither-male-nor-female outfit and frowned, wondering which good person framed him and dressed him up like this?

So he said, "If it is true that you committed adultery, and you confess today, you will only be sentenced to two years in prison, but at least you can save your life."

"But you said you were framed. If the Lord comes to the court tomorrow to try the case and finds that what you said is false, then your crime will be even more serious!"

"Thirty lashes of the cane, plus five years in prison."

"You've figured it out!"

Li Gui panicked at that time.

He was a little clever and bold, and he coveted the woman of his master's family, but he was not one of those desperate criminals who would get scared when he saw the police.

It took all his brainpower and courage to say that.

After hearing what Qian Chuan said, he immediately changed his tone: "Sir, please spare me, please spare me... She seduced me first..."

As he said this, he stretched out his hand and pointed at Aunt Zhou who was pretending to be dead beside him.

As the saying goes, "Husband and wife are birds of the same forest; they fly away separately when disaster strikes." What's more, the two of them could not be considered husband and wife. At most, they were a pair of wild mandarin ducks. There was no need to hit them with a stick; a gust of wind and a ripple would scare them apart.

Aunt Zhou was so angry.

She thought to herself, you bastard, I haven’t even betrayed you yet, but you sell me out first!

She immediately fought back, not wanting to be outdone, "Sir, don't believe his nonsense. It's obvious that he has bad intentions towards me, otherwise why would he disguise himself as an old woman to hide his tracks?"

Li Gui: "If you don't leave the door open for me, how can I get in?"

Aunt Zhou: "...It's obviously you who are obsessed with sex. Even the master was almost harmed by you. What else do you have to argue about!"

Li Gui: "It was dark and I couldn't see clearly. Did I mistake him for you?"

……

Shen Cang was listening nearby, his face so dark that he almost blended into the night.

Qian Chuan's eyes widened when he heard this.

You have to know that when they go out on business, they represent the reputation of their masters, so they are professionally trained and have to deal with it calmly no matter what case they encounter.

They had handled cases of adultery before, but this was the first time they had encountered a case where the adulterer had almost insulted the plaintiff, so they were inevitably distracted by what they heard.

Just then, Old Madam Shen came over from the other side with her walking stick.

Before anyone even came up to her, she started to curse: "You little whore! When Taoist Master Jingming came to tell your fortune yesterday, he said that you were a man who raised sperm. I had my doubts in my heart, but I didn't expect it to be true!"

"How have we, the Shen family, wronged you that you are so disgusting to us?"

"Someone, strangle this filthy, rotten-hearted wife to death!"

Everyone was silent after hearing this, except Li Gui, who echoed, "The old lady is right, she seduced me because she couldn't bear the loneliness in the boudoir. Strangle her to death!"

Aunt Zhou: “You!”

How could she have imagined that the person who used to be her "sweet brother and sweet sister" would now wish her to die quickly in order to save his own life!

In shock and anger, Aunt Zhou completely lost her mind. Seeing that Li Gui had turned against her and wanted to trample her to death, how could she remain calm?

She caught a glimpse of the door bolt in Shen Cang's hand, snatched it away and slammed it against Li Gui!

"Pervert! I'll beat you to death!"

Qian Chuan and others hurried forward to stop them.

Li Gui hid behind Qian Chuan and couldn't help cursing: "It's true that the husband and wife follow each other. If he wants to beat me to death, you little bitch should beat me to death too. I deserve what I get from you!"

Aunt Zhou: "Say it again!"

Li Gui: "I just said it twice, what can you do to me?"

Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel again, Qian Chuan raised his hand to interrupt: "Alright, both of you!"

"Since both of you are right, then come to my office. I will make the final decision on who is right and who is wrong."

As he spoke, he suddenly looked at Aunt Zhou's maid Zhu'er and said, "This girl, please come with us."

If Aunt Zhou really had an affair with this man, it is impossible that the people around her were completely unaware of it.

really!

When she heard that Zhu'er was going to be taken away, Aunt Zhou's face changed instantly.

She saw with her own eyes how Cui'er confessed and brought out Aunt Zheng!

The reason she was able to keep Zhu'er under control before was because she promised her that when the eldest son became successful in the future, she would take her in as his concubine. Later, when her hopes were dashed, she gave Zhu'er a large sum of money.

What's more, once the incident was brought before Shen Cang, Zhu'er, the accomplice, wouldn't get any benefit at all, so everyone lived in peace.

But now that the matter has been brought to the government, it’s a different story.

If you know the truth but don't report it, you will be punished!

Thinking of this, Aunt Zhou almost shed tears in despair, but still said to Qian Chuan and the others: "You can't arrest me, I am the biological mother of the eldest daughter of this mansion, and she is the aunt of the son of Wu'an Marquis!"

"If she knew, she would definitely come to save me!"

If she hadn't said this, Qian Chuan might have been more friendly to her because she was a woman.

But when he heard her say this, his face suddenly darkened: "No matter whether you marry the prince or the emperor, being a concubine is not easy. As her biological mother, you should not say anything to make her proud, but you also caused trouble and expected her to save you. How can you say that!"

"I……"

"Stop talking nonsense and let's go!"

After saying this, Qian Chuan untied a bundle of rope from his waist, tied up Li Gui and Aunt Zhou's hands, and tied them together with a rope, one in front and one behind.

The noise fades away, leaving only sadness.

Old Madam Shen walked up to Shen Cang, intending to persuade him to relax. However, as soon as she said the word "you", Shen Cang vomited all over her with a loud bang.

Old Madam Shen's face immediately turned green.

In fact, it’s not Shen Cang’s fault. He didn’t do it on purpose.

It was just that the night was dark, and when Old Madam Shen came over unexpectedly, he had the illusion that Li Gui had come back, and the memory of him not yet dead instantly attacked him.

When the night wind blew, the stench doubled, making Old Madam Shen feel nauseous.

He didn't care about Shen Cang at the moment and hurried back to the house to clean up.

Shen Qiyin watched this scene from afar and couldn't help but applaud in her heart. This play... was much more exciting than she had expected!

She originally thought that things would end when the light came on in Aunt Zhou's room.

Who knew they would even fight outside!

I even reported it to the authorities!

By the way... who asked Butler Li to report to the authorities?

Just as she was thinking about it, something suddenly hit her on the back of the head with a "bang".
