Jiaping six years, September
Yangping County, Yuancheng County.
"I want to sue Shuqu! How dare this guy let his wife seduce me!"
"The matter of sacrificing your wife is appalling!"
"It really destroys human ethics and destroys the moral integrity between men and women!"
"He risked the disdain of the world! He tried to ruin my reputation!"
"Please ask the county magistrate to send someone to arrest him quickly!"
In the county government office, a young man stood upright in front of the county magistrate, scolding loudly.
Many officials in the county government were stunned at this moment.
This young man has a slender figure. Although he is not very old, he is already as tall as an adult.
He wore a three-winding train, a crown on his head, and a long sword hanging from his waist. His appearance was as white as jade, with sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, and he was extremely brave and handsome.
Behind the young man, stood a dozen strong men in rough clothes with fierce looks. These men put their hands on the hilts of their swords at their waists. They all squinted their eyes and stared maliciously at the magistrate in front of them.
Beside the young man, there was a beautiful woman lying motionless.
This woman had her head buried, so her appearance was not visible, but her figure was very enchanting.
After the magistrate finished tying up, he looked at the beautiful woman and then at the young man in front of him.
At that moment, his face was livid, and the veins could almost be seen popping up on his forehead.
"Mr. Cao...why is this?"
"For no reason, I just came to complain! Why, the Wei Dynasty does not allow the clan to interfere in government affairs, but it didn't say that the clan is not allowed to complain, right?!"
The county magistrate wore a goatee, was thin, upright, and looked aloof.
But after hearing the young man's words, he broke through his defense instantly.
Since the Wei dynasty, he has never seen a clan that was so daring!
"My dear, please don't make a mistake."
Shu Wan narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "As a Duke, you really shouldn't come to the county government again and again to cause trouble."
"Perhaps the noble prince doesn't know that the law of the Wei Dynasty prohibits the royal family from visiting guests."
"You use money to support guests, make friends with gangsters, protect prisoners, win over rangers, instruct bandits, and collude with merchants. Just one of these is enough to punish you."
"I think you'd better go back."
The young man put his hands on his hips, his face was flushed, and he smelled of alcohol.
Hearing those words, he couldn't help but throw his head back and laugh.
"Who said I have servants? These are just servants in my family. Why, does Wei Lu still prohibit the clan from keeping servants?"
"As for sheltering, wooing, instigating, and colluding, this is a crime that is intended to be punished."
"I have always been generous and generous. If people in the past ask for help from me, I will help them. This is a charity and a good deed."
"As for the identity of the person who wants me, I don't know."
"I have done many good deeds, and this is because of your education as a county magistrate. Of course, you can also write a letter to me, hahaha, maybe we can even ride in the same prison car!"
Shu Wan looked at the unscrupulous clan in front of him, clenching his fists and almost bursting with fire from his eyes.
audacious in the extreme! ! Thieves! !
The Wei Dynasty has always been very strict with the clan, and the clan has always been very grateful to Emperor Wen Cao Pi for his great kindness.
He opened up a new clan system for the Wei Dynasty.
The clan of the Wei Dynasty had no real power at all, and could not recruit or collect taxes, let alone an army.
He is a dignified prince and king, with only a dozen old, weak, sick and disabled people around him.
They always seal off the poorest land to them, do not give them salaries, and do not allow them to do business.
Other dynasties sent family ministers to take care of the princes, but the Wei Dynasty actually set up anti-auxiliary orders and supervisors to monitor the princes.
They are not allowed to go more than thirty miles from the mansion, are not allowed to meet relatives and friends, are not allowed to use luxury goods, and are not allowed to write letters. The local officials can control them, and there are frequent moves and changes of titles, which makes them unable to settle down.
To sum it up in one sentence, the princes of the Wei Dynasty lived worse than dogs! ! !
But among such a group of princes whose lives were miserable, there was such a strange thing.
He was so bold that he did not pay attention to the orders of defense and assistance, those who supervised the country's visits, and even local officials.
He has committed almost all the evil deeds that princes are forbidden to commit, and now he even comes to the county government to make noises.
"Cao Mao!! What do you want?!"
Shu Wan asked.
The young man, Cao Mao, the noble prince of the Wei Dynasty, laughed, walked around Shu Wan in front of him, walked to the front in a few steps, and sat down in the county magistrate's seat.
And the libertines also followed him and stood beside him.
They talked loudly and unscrupulously as if there was no one around.
Cao Mao then looked at Shu Wan who was standing below.
"I want you to review the case!"
"Go and capture Shuqu!"
"You know where he's hiding!"
Cao Mao frowned and his tone became increasingly irritable.
After finishing her sentence, she just raised her head slightly and stared at him without speaking.
He knew the reason for Cao Mao's behavior. He was just dissatisfied with his judgment on a case a few days ago.
But he couldn't understand why this guy would take such a huge risk to stand up for that Guizhou leader and come to him to question him?
Do you really want to fight to the death with my Yuancheng Shu family?
Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere gradually became tense.
Just as the two were confronting each other, someone suddenly stumbled into the county government office.
When he saw that man, Cao Mao couldn't help but stand up, and the strong men around him also put their hands on the hilts of their swords.
The person who came was Shuqu.
He was startled by this posture and hurriedly hid behind the county magistrate, and then he saw the beautiful woman lying unconscious on the side.
Suddenly, he burst into tears, knelt down in front of the magistrate, and hugged the magistrate's legs with both hands.
"Please ask the county magistrate to make decisions for the common people!"
"Gaogui Township Duke Cao Mao is bullying others too much!"
"My wife and a servant were walking on the street, and they were met by this guy. He saw my wife's beauty, and became ill-willed. He openly molested her. My wife refused to obey and was expelled, so he beat my servant and took away my wife on horseback. wife!!"
"How could you do such a thing in broad daylight?!"
“Please ask the county magistrate to make the decision for me!!”
The man cried and beat his chest hard, bursting into tears, and even his voice was so miserable.
The surrounding officials couldn't help but shake their heads and sneer: You guys are actually here today.
"Shut up!"
Shu Wan said seriously: "Mr. Cao Xiang has a reputation as a virtuous man and has the legacy of his ancestors. How could he do such a thing as robbing a woman?"
Shuqu felt unspeakably aggrieved at the moment.
It is said that Cao Xianggong has the legacy of his ancestors. They thought it was the legacy of Emperor Wen. Who would have thought that it was the legacy of Emperor Wu!
If you want a woman, just tell me. There are so many beauties waiting to be married in the city, and we can share them together. Why snatch my wife? ?
Besides, we originally had no grievances and no grudges. Why would we do this for a mere untouchable?
Cao Mao stood up slowly at this moment and squinted at the county magistrate.
"Magistrate Shu, you won't be partial to your clan brothers, right?"
"Mr. Cao, don't be stubborn anymore. If you leave now, I will assume that nothing will happen to you."
"Okay, no problem."
Cao Mao laughed and continued: "If I leave here now, by tomorrow, everyone in the entire Yuancheng will know what a noble family your Shu family is, and the virtuous members of the family actually offer their wives to entertain nobles!"
"The day after tomorrow, the entire Yangping County will know about your Shu family's hospitality!"
"For at least a hundred years from now, no one in your family will be recommended by a Zhongzheng official!!"
After finishing the binding, his whole body started to tremble, "Why is this?! If I were determined to do it, you might not end well!"
"You are simply crazy. Why do you do this for a Guizhou leader?! Why do you do this?!"
Cao Mao said: "I have also tried to persuade you, but you said that the clan is not allowed to interfere in politics, so I can only do this. Even if I, Cao Mao, give up my title and life, I will not turn a blind eye..."
The county magistrate stared hard into Cao Mao's eyes, and the atmosphere was extremely solemn.
"Okay...I will re-examine Zhang Sheng's case against Shuqu."
Shuqu's face was filled with shock at this moment, and he quickly hugged the county magistrate's feet again.
"Brother clan!! Brother clan!! You have to save me! You have to save me!!"
But the county magistrate kicked him over and said angrily: "Come here, put Shuqu and this evil woman in jail!!!"
Immediately, soldiers came forward and dragged him and his wife out regardless of Qu Shu's wailing for mercy.
Cao Mao squinted his eyes, ignored the livid-faced county magistrate, and walked past him in a swagger.
A lot of people had already gathered outside the door.
Seeing Cao Mao and the warriors coming out, everyone couldn't help but rush up and surround him.
The leader was a white-haired old man. The old man was wearing tattered short clothes. The wrinkles on his forehead formed ridges. He was as skinny as a stick, and his eyes were full of deep sadness.
"Mr. Cao..."
"Husband, don't worry. The county magistrate has promised to retry the case of your son and daughter-in-law. He will definitely give you justice."
"If he doesn't give it."
Cao Mao patted the hilt of his sword and said, "Then I'll give it."
The old man's tears immediately flowed down. He wanted to say something, but couldn't. He just wiped the tears from his face.
Seeing this, Cao Mao sighed again.
Ten days ago, the county magistrate Shu Wan's clan brother Shu Qu asked his wife to trick his tenant's wife into the backyard, and then forcibly raped her. The miserable woman chose to commit suicide after resisting to no avail.
Her husband, the old man's son, came to the county government office to file a complaint, but was told that he had seduced his wife into sexual intercourse in order to gain benefits. As a result, his wife could not bear the humiliation and committed suicide.
The woman's suicide was directly blamed on her husband.
Instead of avenging his wife, the husband suffered such a bad reputation that he committed suicide by drowning in the river a few days later.
When the old man knelt in front of him, crying and complaining about the grievances suffered by his son and daughter-in-law, slapping himself and asking for help, Cao Mao felt something explode in his heart.
He suppressed his anger and came to the county magistrate to reason with him, but the magistrate was unwilling to reason with him.
Shuqu knew that he was looking for him and hid himself.
So on this day, Cao Mao had some wine, and then led his disciples to ride on their horses. They ran all the way to Shu's house, grabbed Shuqu's wife on the street, got on the horse, ran all the way to the county government, and then left her behind. The bundle is finished in front of you.
"Mr. Cao..."
The old man couldn't stop his tears. He held Cao Mao's hand tightly and groped over and over again, "I don't know how to thank you... How should I thank you..."
Until the villagers helped him leave, he was still mumbling those words, and his trembling back was heartbreaking.
Even though the matter was done, Cao Mao was not happy at all.
"I really want to chop off that county magistrate's dog head..."
Cao Mao gritted his teeth, got on his horse, raised his whip, and galloped away.
The villains hurriedly followed him.
Everyone stood at the gate of the county government office, watching their retreating figures, but they never dispersed.
"Gong Cao is so righteous!"
"We are really lucky to have Mr. Cao in Yuancheng!"
"What are you doing standing here? Why don't you get out?!"
The government officials rushed out, brandishing big sticks, but the sticks did not fall on the leaders in front of them like in the past.
The onlookers fled in all directions.
The front of the county government office soon became calm, as usual.
