Peng Jianbin's face was even red with anger at this time! He said bitterly: "Marquis Wu Ning, what we just said was just a misunderstanding! If you had done nothing wrong, you would be cleared in the future, so why are you so unwilling to forgive me? And this matter itself is You deliberately designed it to deceive me, otherwise how could you explain those two corpses?"
The civil servants immediately reacted when they heard this. One of them said: "Yes, you deliberately set up a trap to harm us. Otherwise, how could two beaten corpses of soldiers appear for nothing? You also deliberately arranged for a doctor to enter the house. , and bought more medicinal materials to confuse me and others!"
Liu Haojia was very proud to hear him say that! Because this is indeed a trap arranged by him! He did buy the medicinal materials because the house needed them, so at most he would buy more and save them. The doctor is even simpler. He gives them a little more money and lets them live in the house for seven or eight days. They are not happy about it!
As for the two corpses, it's easier. There are always death row prisoners in the capital's prisons. Spend some money to buy the prisons, and they will take care of it for you! This is called killing white ducks, and it is one of the ways inmates make money!
However, Liu Haojia certainly couldn't admit this. He snorted and said, "I told you that those two people were just burglars! As for why they were dressed as scholars, they probably saw so many scholars entering the house and wanted to mix in. It’s just a bargain! According to the Ming Law, beating and killing such a person is not guilty! Moreover, I already reported this matter to Magistrate Wei last night! As for the other things, I have already explained it!”
When the civil servants heard this, their momentum froze, and they all felt something bad! They can all imagine that Liu Haojia must have said it lightly yesterday, and two thieves took advantage of the chaos and entered the house and were beaten to death! And Magistrate Wei, who was already in a state of distress, must have casually said that he knew about it, and the matter was over!
Not to mention killing a thief with the identity of Wu Ninghou, even if he killed a thief who broke into an ordinary person's home, he would just go through the official court and forget it, and it would be impossible to pursue him.
At this time, Zhang Siwei, who had been sitting still, finally made some movement! Because now he has reached the point where he has to end the game!
First of all, he is determined to win this salt field! After all, we have spent so much money and mobilized so many officials, so we can’t go in vain! And as long as we win this salt farm and bring down the price of salt in the future, with such great achievements, we will definitely be one step closer to the throne of the richest man!
Moreover, the salt farm is still under the control of Liu Haojia. If he is not appeased, the salt farm may not be obtained! Even if you get it in your hand, I'm afraid you won't be able to get it all, and it won't be able to play its due role!
So thinking of this, he stood up and walked towards the middle of the hall! When everyone saw him getting up, they all gave way as if he had a backbone, allowing him to walk directly towards Liu Haojia.
When he walked up to Liu Haojia, Zhang Siwei said with a faint smile: "Marquis Wu Ning, everyone just accused you of being public-minded and caused some misunderstandings. Besides, I have nothing to lose with you, so why hold on so tightly?" Don’t let it go!”
Liu Haojia raised his hands and said: "Mr. Zhang Ge, how can we say that Xianguan has no losses? If Xianguan had not had conclusive evidence, he might have been dismissed from office and sent to prison! Why should I suffer this injustice? ?」
Zhang Siwei still had a faint smile, but there was a hint of condescension in his smile! At the same time, he said: "Then there won't be any problem! Wu Ninghou, since you didn't do these things, you were deprived of your title and dismissed from office. When the investigation is clear later, you will be cleared. I'm afraid it's just a temporary injustice to you!"
Liu Haojia sneered and said: "The official is reinstated? Mr. Zhang Ge, I'm afraid that the day Xianguan is imprisoned, all kinds of crimes will probably come out one after another! Maybe Xianguan's head will be on the ground before he is released from prison. Where can there be more?" The day I get out of prison!"
Zhang Siwei suppressed his smile and said: "How is it possible? I, the Ming Dynasty, will never wrongly accuse meritorious ministers! However, these people do do things a little more carefully, but for the sake of their public mindedness, it is better to let them apologize to you. , how about taking over this matter?"
After hearing Zhang Siwei's words, the civil servants nodded deeply in agreement and felt that this result was completely acceptable! Some officials even slightly bowed their hands to Liu Haojia and said, "I'm sorry!"
That air of calmness
Son, it seemed as if the people who were sternly accusing Liu Haojia just now were not them at all! As for Peng Jianbin and others with higher official positions, they even nodded at him with arrogant expressions as an apology! .
But how could Liu Haojia let go of this opportunity? He looked up to the sky and laughed, and then said loudly: "Mr. Zhang Ge, if apologizing is useful, what's the use of the "Da Ming Law"? How about abolishing the "Da Ming Law"? Anyway, if you commit murder and arson, you only need to nod!"
As soon as these words came out, the civil servants roared in anger! They all feel that Mr. Zhang Ge has already given you enough face by personally coming forward, and it is simply unreasonable that you still dare to refuse to give in!
When Zhang Siwei heard this, he completely stopped the smile on his face, his face became as dark as water, and a huge official power rippled out! He said with a cold face: "There is a slight misunderstanding, but Wu Ninghou is so unwilling to forgive, I simply don't know what to say! I see that you are quite spiritual in writing articles, have you forgotten the way of loyalty and forgiveness taught by the saints?"
These righteous and awe-inspiring words were spoken, and the saint was involved. Naturally, the civil servants nodded in agreement, but Liu Haojia refused to follow his lead! He immediately waved his sleeves and said: "I, and even my warriors, have never received the teachings of a saint! I only know that when someone wants to kill me, I will kill him first with one sword!"
After hearing this, the nobles and nobles all responded favorably, and the civil servants were in an uproar again, accusing Liu Haojia of disobeying the teachings of the saint, which was extremely unreasonable! Zhang Siwei was even more furious! He said loudly: "I came to mediate for you. Why don't you give me this little face? But you don't take me seriously!"
Liu Haojia said with a straight face: "Of course I respect Mr. Zhang Ge, but these people wantonly falsely accuse others. If they are not severely punished, many gentlemen may be destroyed in the hands of these despicable people in the future! So even if it is for the sake of court discipline, I will I will never let them go!"
Zhang Siwei calmed down his anger at this time, and his face looked calm! Everyone knew at a glance that he was really angry! Sure enough, Zhang Siwei said in a deep voice: "It seems that Wu Ninghou is preparing to embarrass all officials? Then I can't just ignore it!"
