"Are you Mr. Chu?" Ms. Zhou and Chen raised her lips and shouted, "We have heard it a long time ago. You said that you have always loved the people as your own sons, so you really treat us as your own sons. Average. Since you are so good, you can't just be partial to her."
Wang Li became angry when she heard this.
She put her hands on her waist and was about to retaliate.
Before she could open her mouth, Chu Ze reached out to stop her.
"Mr. Zhou Chen, you said we favored her, but that's too much to ask, why did we favor her?" Chu Ze looked at Ms. Zhou Chen.
Chu Ze's eyes were very cold, and when he glanced over, Zhou Chen felt inexplicably guilty.
Full of words, they rolled around in her throat.
After choking for a moment, Mrs. Zhou Chen recovered.
"My lord said you didn't favor her, so why did you give her the money?!" The more Zhou Chen thought about it, the more unhappy she became. Her tone was full of displeasure, and resentment almost overflowed from her face.
Chu Ze snorted.
This woman is really obsessed with money.
There is nothing in my mind except money.
Even the heart is like a copper coin.
After all, she is a woman, so she is unreasonable and shameless, but Chu Ze is not as harsh to them as he is to men.
He was also willing to suppress his temper and have a gentle conversation with them.
This time is also normal.
Chu Ze calmly suppressed the disgust in his heart and said in the gentlest voice possible: "The amount of silver given to her is the amount Liu Jing has agreed with you before, which is one tael of silver. Now there is a place to repair the canal. Naturally, we don’t need your land. That’s why we gave the money to Wang Li and not to you.”
Chu Ze thought that his explanation was in place.
Everyone can understand it.
But the man in front of him was holding his neck and still glaring at Chu Ze angrily.
"Why is our field only worth one tael of silver? Considering the location of our field, it is completely reasonable to ask you for 20 taels of silver. You put it nicely and said that it is for the country and the people. I think the money belongs to you. Just keep it! Chu, please hand over the money quickly, or we will go to Yingtian to sue you!"
Mrs. Zhou Chen had her hands on her waist, like a rooster about to fight.
Even her eyes were red, staring at Chu Ze angrily.
Chu Ze frowned.
Others also frowned.
Mrs. Wang Li couldn't help it anymore, took a step forward, pointed at Mrs. Zhou and scolded her.
Others also accused Zhou Chen.
When Zhou Chen was pointed at by these people, her face showed no signs of weakness.
She even stretched out her hand, passed Wang Lishi, pointed at Chu Ze and scolded him for corruption.
Chu Ze didn't care about this.
Doesn’t the emperor know whether he is greedy or not?
Use her mouth.
Zhu Di's face also darkened.
Just as Zhu Di was about to scold him, Chu Ze heard Zhou Chen yelling wildly: "Who do you think you are? Master Bai is behind us. If you dare to touch us, I will ask Master Bai to kill you all immediately!" But after she finished speaking, His expression was obviously weak.
Like some regret.
Chu Ze quickly grabbed Zhu Di, pointed at Zhou Chen, and said in surprise: "She just said that Zhu Qingwen was behind her? Did we hear it wrong?"
When did this woman get involved with Bai Qingwen?
Not only did he find it strange, Wang Li also laughed at her for not overestimating her abilities.
"Who do you think you are? You dare to ask Mr. Bai to support you? If you are really capable, you should ask Mr. Bai to say a word for you!"
The words have been released and cannot be taken back at this time.
Mrs. Zhou Chen could only continue to hold on with fierceness on the outside and hard on the inside: "Of course we have the ability!"
"Then you should take it out!"
"We..." Zhou Chen's confidence, which was already guilty, became even weaker now.
Seeing her like this, Wang Li's disdain became even stronger.
"Can't you take it out? We know you can't take it out. If you are shouting so fiercely here, then you should ask Mr. Bai to come out and say a word for you!" Mrs. Wang and Li stuck their waists in and spat at Mrs. Zhou and Chen arrogantly. Face.
Chu Ze saw Zhou Chen's face full of hesitation, but he didn't speak.
This was not the result he wanted.
When Mrs. Zhou Chen said this just now, her expression was determined, and it didn't look like she said it casually.
It seems... there is some trump card.
Chu Ze thought of what Zhu Xi had said before.
He had to get out what Zhou Chen was holding.
"Humph, we have a close relationship with Mr. Bai. If you really have anything to do with Mr. Bai, why has Mr. Bai never mentioned it to us? Now you are still using his name here to pretend to be a bully. You really don't want to let Mr. Bai go. In my eyes, right? Come here, arrest this cunning woman for us, we want to investigate her clearly, don't let others smear Master Bai for nothing."
Chu Ze glanced at the people around him, and his guards immediately stepped forward and grabbed Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen still wanted to curse, but as soon as she cursed a few words, the guard blocked her mouth with something.
Seeing Mrs. Zhou and Chen being taken away, Ms. Wang and Li spat: "Bah! This shameless old prostitute should be locked up in prison until she dies."
"It's just that I didn't let Tian go, and now he's still making trouble. It's too much."
After arresting someone, Chu Ze rushed back to interrogate him.
He said a few perfunctory words and led the people away.
Liu Jing watched Chu Ze come and go without saying a word to him.
Liu Jing subconsciously wanted to catch up.
"Hey, where are you going?" Sun Zhengde grabbed Liu Jing's hand and said, "My lord, something is wrong. Why are you chasing me?"
Liu Jing turned around with a blank look on his face and asked in confusion: "But didn't you come to see the progress of the canal? Why did you leave without asking a few questions?"
"Your Excellency, you have more important things to do. It's not like we can't handle the things here. Well, don't bother Your Excellency with these things. Let's take care of it ourselves." Sun Zhengde patted Liu Jing's back and pulled Follow the person and walk away.
…
Chu Ze did not directly take Zhou Chen to the county jail.
Zhizhou Prison cannot be released.
Shen Nan and Bai Qingwen were in the same boat. They put Zhou and Chen there, just waiting to send the sheep into the tiger's mouth.
Guanyi cannot be released either.
When Kang Cheng saw Zhou Chen in Guanyi, Bao Buqi gave her to Bai Qingwen as a gift.
Then if he arrests someone, it will eliminate the crisis for Bai Qingwen.
His work was wasted.
Therefore, it is best to put the person in the county jail.
The county master had just fallen into his hands, and he still had the handle.
Now the county master just wants to perform well in front of him, and he will never let the people he sends there have problems easily.
Chu Ze secretly took the person to the county jail.
Zhou Chen has lived for so many years and has never seen this scene before.
She was so frightened that her face turned pale and her legs shook like a sieve.
Zhou Chen was so arrogant when she scolded Chu Ze before, but now Zhou Chen is so scared.
When she saw Chu Ze and Zhu Di again, Mrs. Zhou and Chen almost cried in fear.
She kept shaking the chains on her body.
"Sir, please forgive me. We don't dare to cause trouble anymore. We don't want that field anymore. You can do whatever you want. I just ask you to spare us..."
