"Sister-in-law, we are worrying too much. We just killed a thief, and the government still has to reward us!"
Sun Lei said with a smile when he saw that Zhang was really worried about their safety and was not showing off.
"Jin'er, you go to Kaifeng Mansion to report the case. Just say that Coach Lin went to the Yazhong to discuss matters, and an idle man broke into the house with evil intentions! He murdered the women! If there is more, don't say anything. If I ask urgent questions, just cry!"
Sun Lei said to the maid Jin'er who was slowing down next to Zhang.
"yes!"
Seeing that Zhang didn't say anything, Jin'er responded to Sun Lei and ran out in a panic, her body shaking so much that she looked like she was frightened.
"Brother, what does this mean? Why are you still reporting the crime?"
Lu Zhishen looked at Sun Lei in confusion. Was he in a hurry to send himself to prison?
"As a monk, you beat to death a bully who broke into a house and tried to do evil. Isn't this justice for God? What crime do you have? And you are a monk and a monk. When you encounter a lawsuit, you will be reduced to the third level of punishment. There is no crime in the first place, but you are still demoted to the third level. Wait, what can I do to you?"
Sun Lei glanced at Lu Zhishen and said.
"Yes, this guy forced his way into a house. The Sa family is doing justice to God!"
Lu Zhishen had also served as a judge. How to decide a lawsuit was stipulated in the criminal law. He understood the meaning of this as soon as he thought about it.
"Sister-in-law, just be the victim in this matter. If the Kaifeng Mansion asks about it, please tell me a few words!"
Sun Lei looked at Zhang with a smile and said, as for how to say it, he believed that a smart woman like Zhang would know how to make up a story.
"Uncle, don't worry, the slave family knows what to say. But this person is here to report the news, and the neighbors may have heard it."
Mrs. Zhang bowed to Sun Lei and Lu Zhishen, but she was still a little worried.
"Don't worry about this. My brother didn't get drunk and suffocated. This Fu'an was full of lies. The neighbors testified and he was convicted."
Sun Lei said with a smile that he had thought of everything.
"Madam! What's going on?"
At this moment, Lin Chong came back and saw his two brothers and his wife in the yard. There was also the body of an unknown man on the ground, with a puzzled face.
Mrs. Zhang was overjoyed at first when she saw Lin Chong coming back. She was relieved that Lin Chong was fine. But immediately his eyes turned red, he walked over quickly, took Lin Chong's hand and explained everything in detail.
"Evil thief! No wonder Lu Qian kept chatting with me after today's meeting. It turned out that he planned such a treacherous plot."
Lin Chong was furious and reached for the weapons on the weapons rack to cut Fu'an into pieces.
"Officials, please don't do this!"
Zhang quickly persuaded Lin Chong to stop.
"If you have a temper, don't vent your anger on the dead. Go kill the culprit Gao Yanei, and then fly away with my sister-in-law."
Seeing Lin Chong's behavior, Sun Lei shook his head and said, "What kind of skill is he only able to get angry with corpses?"
"Thank you two brothers for saving me!"
Lin Chong cupped his fists at Sun Lei and Lu Zhishen.
"It just happened that the Sa family happened to meet him, how could he be spared so lightly? It's all brothers who are smart, otherwise the Sa family would have almost been deceived by this thief."
Lu Zhishen did not dare to take credit. Sun Lei saw the clues. At that time, he almost thought that something had really happened to Lin Chong.
"Okay, you should go to Kaifeng Mansion to report the case. One Jin'er is not enough to win the governor's trust."
Sun Lei looked at Lin Chong and said, this guy obviously doesn't dare to seek revenge from the rightful owner, so he can only go to Kaifeng Mansion to complain, make the matter bigger, make it known to everyone in Tokyo, and maybe there will be some changes.
"Going to Kaifeng Mansion?"
Lin Chong was a little reluctant. This matter was not honorable, and his face would be disgraced if it caused a big fuss. The home of a dignified Forbidden Army instructor was broken into by an idle man on the street. This would be a disgrace to his reputation.
"Do you still want fame? If you don't make a big deal out of this matter, you won't go out for a step in the future. Today a rich man will come to cheat you, and tomorrow a poor man and a poor man will come to cheat you. You stay at home twelve hours a day?"
Sun Lei looked at the cowardly Lin Chong, who was hesitant about everything. How could it be so easy to be afraid of the powerful and want to protect himself? Without even a bit of brain, isn't it the same as stretching your neck to wait for death if you are saving face at this time?
"What my brother said, I will go to Kaifeng Mansion right away. The officials' families are being harassed. They should report it to the court!"
Lin Chong understood what Sun Lei meant. The imperial court had an obligation to protect the families of officials. Especially in Tokyo, where there were so many officials, no one wanted their family members to be harassed. This was the bottom line for everyone.
"Finally smart for once."
Sun Lei nodded, and Lin Chong finally had an idea.
Soon, Jin'er came with the government officials from Kaifeng Mansion. When they saw that Fu An was dead, they all wanted to arrest him, but Lin Chong stopped him, claiming that his family members were being harassed by rogues and wanted to report the case.
Lin Chong was very afraid of Shangguan, but he still didn't care much about Dutou.
Lin Chong opened his mouth. Naturally, Du Tou did not dare to take Sun Lei and Lu Zhishen into custody. Hearing that Lin Chong was about to report the case, Du Tou immediately understood that the matter was serious. He had Fu An's body restrained and returned to Kaifeng Mansion with Lin Chong, with Lin Chong as his security guard. No need to offend anyone.
"Sister-in-law, the wine is good, is there any more?"
Lin Chong came back and left. People were beaten to death in the yard, and the family had no backbone. Sun Lei and Lu Zhishen couldn't leave, so they could only sit down and continue drinking.
"Uncle, wait a moment, go get it now!"
Zhang was a little worried at first, but after being teased like this by Sun Lei, she immediately put away those worries. With her two brothers here, her husband would always have someone to help him if he had something to do.
After eating, drinking and bragging, Lu Zhishen showed off his casserole-sized fists, claiming that he would defeat all the evildoers in the world! Be a knight-errant who sees rough roads.
About two hours later, Lin Chong came back, with a happy face. The matter was settled. Fu'an, an idle man, took advantage of the officials and soldiers to discuss matters, broke into the house privately, and fabricated lies with no ulterior motives. The evidence was conclusive, and he was innocent of his death. Although he was dead, he could not escape the guilt. He cut off his head and exposed his body for three days as a warning to Xiaoxiao.
It is quite a severe punishment to behead and expose the corpse for three days after death. Generally, the crime of death is expunged and no additional punishment will be imposed. It seems that this is because he hates the gangsters for harassing the officials' families, so the penalty for serious crimes is Be a warning to others.
Lin Chong was very happy and seemed to have vented his anger. Sun Lei could only shake his head. This kind of thinking can kill people. Punishing Fu'an severely will not solve the problem at all. Gao Yanei will think of new tricks to avoid getting past the first grade of junior high school. , can't escape fifteen. It's a pity that Lin Chong doesn't believe anything he says and always takes chances.
After a few more drinks, the day passed like this. Sun Lei and Lu Zhishen stood up to say goodbye. Lin Chong wanted to stay, but after some refusal, Sun Lei and Lu Zhishen left.
With only the husband and wife left at home, Mrs. Zhang hesitated to speak, not knowing what to say to Lin Chong.
"Madam, what's going on?"
Lin Chong looked at his wife and asked strangely.
"Official, how about we leave Tokyo and find a place with beautiful scenery and clear water to live where no one knows us!"
Zhang's eyes suddenly turned red, and she took out a handkerchief to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"Why did you suddenly say that?"
Lin Chong quickly helped Zhang sit down and asked.
"Once you enter the officialdom, it is as deep as the sea. The officials are exhausted mentally and physically dealing with the superiors. Now the slave family is entangled with Gao Yanei. If it were not for the two brothers today, the slave family would not know what to do. I heard Uncle Sun say that Gao Yanei will not give up. You can’t harm me this time, I’m afraid I might harm the officials next time!”
The more Ms. Zhang talked, the more tears she shed. She felt like all her years of grievances had been vented. She rarely cried before, and she would just carry on with everything. But this time it was different. She clearly did nothing, just lived her life cautiously, but she was entangled by evil people. Now it was like a nightmare that she couldn't escape from, and her life might even be threatened. She was a little tired of thinking about her husband's officialdom. life in Tokyo.
