The horse had stopped. Perhaps the whip had been a bit harsh just a few moments ago, and the reins had been pulled too hard.
Frightened, the horse stood upright several times, as if trying to throw the girl in the red dress off its back.
The girl in the red dress couldn't hide her look of fear. She pulled the reins in her hands so tightly that she didn't even dare to open her eyes.
Zhang Ren shook his head and decided to save the girl. After all, a dog would not die if he looked down upon others.
Zhang Ren used Qing Kung again and jumped onto the horse's back.
He hugged the girl and jumped down. But by chance, his hand landed on a soft spot. At the same time, Zhang Ren sighed secretly in his heart: It's so soft.
The two of them landed firmly on the ground. The horse couldn't feel anyone on its back, and there was no resistance on the reins, so it naturally became quiet.
Perhaps because it felt so good, Zhang Ren didn't let go immediately. He even pinched it twice unconsciously.
The girl in the red dress seemed to be in shock. She gasped twice and then screamed.
This startled Zhang Ren, and he quickly subconsciously covered his ears. At the same time, he couldn't help but said: "Why are you howling when you are safe?"
The girl in the red dress was blushing and hugging her chest tightly. Zhang Ren carefully recalled the feeling just now, and then said in surprise: "Damn, I didn't touch your car light just now, did I?"
But the maid was also late at this moment. She looked at the girl in the red dress and asked quickly: "Miss, are you okay?"
The girl in the red dress didn't reply. She didn't understand what the headlights meant, but when she thought about it, it probably wasn't a good thing.
She has always been regarded as a star-studded existence in Dengzhou Mansion. When had she ever suffered such humiliation? Her face turned red, she pulled out the broken sword again, and roared at Zhang Ren: "I'll kill you, you scoundrel!"
Zhang Ren looked at his hand, and all he could think about was the comfortable feeling just now. He deserved it, but it was really soft just now.
Apart from anything else, Zhang Ren felt that he was indeed at fault because he just touched a place he shouldn't have touched with his hand. After all, she was also a girl.
The girl in the red dress stabbed Zhang Ren with a sword. Fortunately, the maid had quick eyesight and quick hands, and hugged her. At the same time, she couldn't help but ask: "Miss, what's wrong with you?"
The girl in the red dress has lost control of her emotions: "Let go, I will kill him today!"
Muping County is not a big city, and the people here live a comfortable life, but whenever there is some excitement, they will come to take a look.
No, this thing just happened, and there are already many people watching the excitement, pointing and pointing.
Zhang Ren was helpless and couldn't say a single word of what he wanted to say. Also, he couldn't say in public that I didn't touch you on purpose, right?
Even if you are thick-skinned, you don't care about rumors.
But the girl in the red dress is a girl's family after all. She will get married in the future, so she still needs to be innocent.
So it’s okay for Zhang Ren to explain now, and it’s okay not to explain.
Looking at the maid, she was also using all her strength to hold back her blushing face. However, her strength was obviously not as strong as that of the girl in the red skirt, and she was about to break free from her restraints.
Fortunately, the county government office was only a few steps away from here. Hearing the chaos, the government officer walked over directly and said while squeezing into the crowd: "Get out of the way, get out of the way, the government office is handling the case."
….
However, there are no cases in the entire Ninghai Prefecture all year round, and the government officials are naturally idle and lazy on weekdays. This also leads to the fact that the people in Mouping County are not afraid of the government officials here at all.
It took a lot of effort for several government officials to squeeze into the innermost part of the crowd. They held on to their hats, which were tilted by the crowd, and said angrily: "What happened? I heard you shouting and killing me from all the way." of?"
An embarrassed smile appeared on Zhang Ren's face. He came to the Yamen and said immediately: "It's all my fault."
The yamen officer looked at Zhang Ren and said, "Does this mean you are admitting your guilt? Since you know it is your fault, then come with us to the yamen."
Zhang Ren quickly shook his head: "Dear gentlemen, I
That's not what I meant. It's all a misunderstanding. "
"Misunderstanding?" The leading yamen servant turned to look at the girl in the red dress.
But the girl in the red dress was still confident and wanted to kill Zhang Ren one by one.
The yamen officer shook his head and said, "I don't think you have misunderstood me. Come on, come with us."
Zhang Ren didn't want to go to the county government, but he changed his mind and thought that if he wanted to deal with the Japanese pirates, he might not be able to do it on his own. He would have to rely on the power of the government.
In this way, Zhang Ren and the girl in the red skirt were all brought into the county government office.
The county magistrate here is surnamed Zheng. He is a energetic young man, but his eyesight is not very good. He has been squinting since he was brought to court.
Magistrate Zheng patted the gavel and asked, "Who is standing in the hall?"
Just as Zhang Ren was about to speak, the girl in red dress beside him said, "Uncle Zheng, it's me."
Zhang Ren secretly said something bad. He had previously guessed that the girl in the red dress was a descendant of an honorable noble. It's good that he just called him uncle. Is this the rhythm of officials protecting each other?
Magistrate Zheng walked over directly. He squinted at the girl in the red dress for a long time, and then asked, "Oh, eldest niece, why did you come to my county office to play?"
The girl in the red dress pointed at Zhang Ren angrily and said, "It's not all him. He first stole my scabbard on the beach, and then tried to do something wrong to me on the street. "
Zhang Ren covered his face, girl, you really can speak out.
There was a trace of anger on Magistrate Zheng's face. He returned to the table, patted the gavel, pointed at Zhang Ren and said, "Bold thief! Is what my eldest niece said true? Oh, by the way, you saw Why don’t I kneel down?”
God knows how long it has been since Mouping County Yamen was promoted to court. The county magistrate looked like a novice.
Zhang Ren had a grimace on his face and said, "You are all related, can you believe me if I say it's not true?"
Magistrate Zheng stroked his beard, walked up to Zhang Ren and took a closer look, and asked: "You don't kneel down when you see me, and you still dare to speak nonsense in the court. Could it be that you are a descendant of the Zhang family?"
Oh my god, what have the Zhang family done there? Why has it become synonymous with crime? If it weren't for the uncle, wouldn't everyone in the Zhang family become a street rat?
Although he was considered a descendant of the Zhang family, Zhang Ren didn't want to admit it. He shook his head and said, "I am not a descendant of the Zhang family."
Hearing what Zhang Ren said, County Magistrate Zheng was also convinced that it would really be difficult to handle if he was a descendant of the Zhang family, but if not, it would be much easier to handle.
Magistrate Zheng's face became more serious and he asked Zhang Ren, "If you are not a descendant of the Zhang family, why don't you kneel down when you see this county?"
Night rivers and lakes.
