As soon as these words came out, not only Zhang San was stunned.
Even Li Shun didn't react for a long time.
"Master Li, please!"
Seeing that Li Shun didn't move, the master said again.
This time, not only was he very polite, he even bent down, stretched out his hand, and made a gesture of invitation.
Li Shun took two steps back in fright.
"No, don't go! Are you trying to harm me?"
Zhang San was puzzled at first, but after hearing Li Shun's words, he seemed to finally understand!
Shopkeeper Fan said that he had a good personal relationship with the county magistrate. How could the county magistrate be so polite to Li Shun?
He smiled proudly and said: "What are you afraid of, shopkeeper Li, aren't you a rich man? Be brave!"
The master didn't expect that it would be so laborious for him to humbly invite a prisoner for the first time.
If he hadn't just been told to invite the man over, he would have immediately asked the jailer to slap Li Shun ten times to see if he still dared to take Qiao!
Seeing that Li Shun refused to move, the master had no choice but to explain: "Shopkeeper Li, the old lady of the Hou Mansion is waiting for you at Yunxiang Inn. Are you sure you don't want to go?"
Madam of the Marquis?
Why does Madam Houfu want to see him?
Zhang San was completely stunned now!
No wonder Li Shun has always been calm and calm, it turns out there is someone above him! Still such a great person!
Li Shun thought about it for three generations, but he couldn't figure out when his family had an intersection with the Hou Mansion.
But it cannot be ruled out that his grandfather's second uncle may have some relationship with the ancestors of the Hou Mansion.
It must have been the smoke rising from the ancestral grave that made Madam Hou think of such a small person like him.
"Ahem!"
Li Shun coughed twice, raised his chest and raised his head and walked out of the cell.
Under the guidance of the master, he walked out.
Zhang San kept staring at Li Shun's back.
This guy didn't even look back, but suddenly turned his back and raised his middle finger!
Oh shit!
Zhang San cursed.
However, due to the Madam Hou Mansion that Master just mentioned, she didn't dare to curse at all.
Li Shun followed the master into the back hall, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw an old lady sitting in the upper seat, accompanied by the county magistrate.
He didn't even dare to raise his head, he knelt on the ground with a plop, leaned over and shouted: "The common people have seen the old lady and the county magistrate!"
The county magistrate immediately stood up: "Please get up quickly, please get up quickly!"
As he spoke, he looked at the old lady who was looking up: "Old lady, this is the Li Shun you are talking about!
Because of a misunderstanding, he stayed in the county government office for four days. Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, this person should be let go.
You can ask someone to come and ask about this small matter. There is really no need to alarm your boss! "
"Is it solved?" the old lady asked calmly.
"Master Sun, as the food, clothing and parents of the people, you must act impartially. You cannot ignore the laws of our court just because of my words."
Sun Zisheng quickly responded: "Old madam, although I may be a low-key official, I have always been conscientious in my work and did not dare to be careless.
I have found out what happened to Li Shun, and it was all Zhang San who deliberately came to make trouble, so Li Shun can leave now! "
"Is this Zhang San deliberately causing trouble?" the old lady asked.
"Yes!" Sun Zisheng's nose was already sweaty.
Before entering the inn, he was thinking about how to please the old lady and pave the way for his future career.
But after entering the inn, the old lady didn't let him say a word and asked about Li Shun.
Fortunately, he still remembered who Li Shun was, otherwise, today's matter would have been more difficult to handle.
He never thought that Li Shun was related to the Hou Mansion. If he had known this, he would never have dared to accept Fan Yuli's money.
Now, he just wants to appease these two people and don't let anything go wrong in this matter.
Just when Sun Zisheng thought the problem had been solved, the old lady suddenly spoke again:
"Now that it has been proven that Li Shun has no problem, should the county magistrate consider compensating Li Shun?"
"compensation?"
Sun Zisheng repeated the sentence and immediately said: "Yes, we need to compensate. Zhang San smashed the tables and chairs in the store. The county will definitely order him to compensate!"
"It's not just tables and chairs!" the old lady said.
"Li Shun was right, but Magistrate Sun locked him up in the county government office for four days. During these four days, Hexiang Tower was closed.
Magistrate Sun thinks, how should this loss be calculated? "
"This loss..."
Sweat dripped from Sun Zisheng's face.
"This loss should also be compensated!"
"How to compensate?" the old lady asked.
"Just..." Magistrate Sun had no idea.
How much should the old lady pay to be satisfied?
Too much is not enough, and even less is not enough!
The old lady seemed tired, leaned back and said, "Just compensate at twice the normal business income."
"Okay, okay!" Magistrate Sun quickly responded.
Li Shun listened to what they said as if it was all his own business, but the whole process seemed to have nothing to do with him.
Li Shun was overjoyed when he heard that there was still compensation for the closure in the past few days, and he subconsciously asked: "Then who should I ask to compensate? Zhang San?"
"I!"
Magistrate Sun hurriedly said: "It's because I was slow in reviewing the case, so I should be the one to pay for it!"
Li Shun trembled with fright and shook his hand out of the afterimage: "No, no, no, I don't want the money! No need to pay!"
If you dare to ask the county magistrate to pay for your own money, do you want to hang out here again in the future?
Unexpectedly, Magistrate Sun was even more nervous than he was, and he quickly said: "How can I do it without money! I must have this money! As a county magistrate, I must set an example!"
The old lady sitting at the top closed her eyes.
The maids waved their hands, indicating that the old lady wanted to rest.
The county magistrate and Li Shun retreated together.
When they walked outside, the two people stared at each other.
Li Shun still wanted to salute respectfully, but Sun Zisheng didn't understand Li Shun's identity and was wary of him, so he wouldn't let him bend down at all.
To outsiders, the two of us looked like you were supporting me and I was supporting you as we left the inn and didn't separate until we reached a fork in the road.
After the two left, Ye Luoxin walked out from behind the screen.
She stepped forward to help the old lady up and said, "Grandma, go back to the house and have a rest. I can handle such small things myself, why do you even have to run away?"
The old lady opened her eyes at this time, and she could not tell how tired she had just been.
"Of course I came here because I missed you! It's just a small matter to deal with them, just by the way!" The old lady looked at Ye Luoxin lovingly.
"This County Magistrate Sun has a sinister look on his face, and he is not a good person at first glance. For someone like him to be an official, it is really a disaster for the people."
"What can be done against such an official?" Ye Luoxin asked.
The old lady sighed: "Oh! With such a big beam, he is not the only official like this! Even if the Marquis is here, he can only turn a blind eye to such a person, unless he has committed something. It was a big mistake that alerted the people above, so that someone could deal with him.
But these things are beyond our control. If he does many evil things, there will naturally be someone to deal with him! "
