Wan Gui's eyes seemed to be on fire and he looked at Zhao Qing and Qi Fang angrily. Because of these two women, he was embarrassed today.
The guests' chatter became even louder.
Wan Zhenshan's face was gloomy, but he did not immediately turn his face. He just took a few steps, held down his son Wan Gui who was about to explode, and said with some anger:
"You little girl, don't talk nonsense and make up rumors to slander others. Our Wan family is a well-known chivalrous sect in the two lakes. Our disciples all come from good families in the city for generations. We have never had any record of doing evil. How can we say what you said? Are you framed for the evil deeds of your fellow disciples?"
"Unfortunately, my junior brother Qi Changfa was not strict with his disciples and taught a disciple Di Yun who was greedy for money, lust, and committed crimes. After he committed a crime in our Wan family, my son Wan Gui had good intentions and did not directly follow the rules of the world. Severe punishment is just to have him turned to the government, and the county magistrate will decide the case and punish him. There is no so-called unjust case in this."
"Even if you are right, things still require evidence. One-sided words are not credible. You are only fifteen or sixteen years old. Maybe you have been deceived by evil people. It is too late to repent in time. Today I don't want to be where I am today. If there is blood at the festive wedding banquet, the girl is asked to leave as soon as possible.”
After finishing speaking, Wan Zhenshan took a step forward and slapped his right palm heavily on a mahogany table in front of him.
With a "click" sound, the legs of the wooden table were broken into several pieces, the food was dumped on the floor, and a small piece of the green brick below was broken into pieces, with dense cracks radiating outward.
It is extremely difficult for a good outsider to break the wooden table legs with just one palm. When Wan Zhenshan's palm power exploded, he was able to break the floor tiles in one fell swoop with the remaining strength after breaking the table legs, which shows his extraordinary attainments in the change of hardness and softness in his palm skills.
Many people in the audience changed their faces when they saw him show off his skills. They felt regretful about their previous random talk and were worried that Wan Zhenshan would overhear it and take revenge in the future.
"It is indeed the famous 'Five Cloud Hand' in the two lakes. If this palm hits a person, will he still be alive?"
"The disciples of Wan Lao Hero certainly don't seem to be bad people who would do evil. It seems that the unjust case mentioned by the little girl is still open to question."
"Speaking of which, the Tai Chi Sect that flourished decades ago had many masters of 'Yun Shou'. Is there any connection with 'Five Cloud Shou'?"
"Don't you know this? 'Five Clouds' refers to the five cloud colors of blue, white, red, black, and yellow. The changes in the Five Clouds are unpredictable. Mr. Wan is very skilled in his skills and once won the It took many famous gangsters to get this nickname."
"It is rumored that Mr. Wan's swordsmanship was inherited from Mei Niansheng, the famous martial arts master in Central Hunan at that time. His power is even more powerful than the skill he showed just now. I wonder if I can see it today."
"Brother Zhang, why aren't you talking about the evil deeds that the girl exposed just now? Do you really trust Wan Zhenshan's character? His junior brother is nicknamed 'Iron Lock Hengjiang', how far can I go wrong? Wanjia's mansion is so luxurious and luxurious, I'm afraid the source of the money is not so bright."
"There is no smoke without fire. It is difficult to say whether Wan Zhenshan is good or bad. But judging from his attitude, there seems to be no conclusive evidence for this matter. So based on his past reputation, he will not be able to make any big waves in the end, so it is not suitable for him. Talked about it in front of others.”
"In this type of dispute between the two parties, it is better to wait until one party has completely won before speaking out to support it. Your experience in the arena is still a bit lacking."
…
By showing his hand, Wan Zhenshan not only wanted to intimidate the other party, but also showed his "trust" in his disciples in front of all the guests.
Although this matter was not a plan made by Wan Zhenshan himself and there were still flaws, he believed that as long as a few of his disciples were not stupid enough to admit it in public, there would be no problem.
Even if the other party found Taohong from nowhere who cooperated in the crime and was later kicked out of the house, he could still say that this former concubine was actually crazy and came out to testify for revenge, which was absolutely not credible.
In fact, Wan Zhenshan was already thinking about how to get benefits from this matter. If he planned carefully, he could completely expand his influence.
As for failure? He didn't think that by spreading rumors and slandering himself, who was well-known in Zhengdao, the other party could arouse the anger of everyone present. Even if his master Mei Niansheng, the person with the highest martial arts skills he has ever seen in his life, comes back to life, he will never be able to escape unscathed if he wants to fight one against a thousand.
This time, I won.
After showing off this unique skill, Wan Zhenshan slowly picked up a silver teapot that had just fallen to the ground. Without looking at Zhao Qing again, he walked towards the table on the left.
He took a tea cup and filled it slowly, drank it all in one gulp, and gave Shang Zhixian, who was sitting at the head of the table, a covert look.
This is a hint to the magistrate to stand up and speak out for the Wan family; by pouring a cup full of water from the silver teapot and drinking it all, he is telling the other party that he will pay a large sum of gold and silver as a reward in the future.
For some reason, Wan Zhenshan still felt a little uneasy, and felt that it would be more appropriate to rely on someone from the government.
Shang Zhixian was a middle-aged man with a handsome appearance and a kind face. He coughed twice, walked to the stage and said:
"Friends from all walks of life present, I guarantee with this official uniform and my own reputation that Wan Jia and his disciples are indeed good people, and have never had any record of committing a crime in the government. The criminal Di Yun is indeed The evidence of those who committed crimes is conclusive and cannot be changed."
"Girl, since Wan Yuanwai has said that this is not the case and you will not be allowed to stay in his home, you should sincerely apologize to him and leave here as soon as possible. Otherwise, I will punish you for entering without reason. It’s my fault.”
Zhao Qing had been quietly watching the performance of Wan Zhenshan and his son, but now he was amused by the magistrate's words.
Where did this official get his reputation? Who doesn’t know the level of officials in the Qing Dynasty? Do you still want me to apologize to the evil thief Wan Zhenshan?
Her voice with a mocking tone sounded:
"No one really thinks that I have no evidence. This reputable county magistrate, how much money did the Wan family spend on you to have the innocent Di Yun unjustly convicted, imprisoned in the pipa bone, and thrown into death row? This has to be done. Tell everyone?"
"Even if Di Yun is charged according to the charges announced when he was arrested, including attempted flower picking and stealing money, when will he need to wear a pipa bone, lose his martial arts, and be imprisoned on death row for the rest of his life?"
"Listen up, everyone. Don't mess with such a rich hypocrite. Otherwise, you will be arrested by the government somewhere and your martial arts skills will be ruined."
Zhao Qing looked around and saw that many people's expressions had changed. The eyes he looked at Wan Zhenshan, Shang Zhixian and others gradually became different, and then he said to Qi Fang:
"Miss Qi, have you ever seen Di Yun who was imprisoned on death row? Tell everyone, was he imprisoned in a prison for felons and had his bones pierced with chains? You must have been too. It’s time to believe it.”
"Haha, Wan Gui has been telling you that he is spending money to rescue your Brother Di, so that you can feel grateful. In fact, it is quite the opposite. The money he is spending is just to increase Di Yun's crime and sentence. , I just kept you in the dark. Let me guess, in the past few years, Wan Gui and his gang have found many excuses to prevent you from checking the law!"
Qi Fang's dull expression changed several times, but she did not explain Di Yun's situation to the guests. She turned around and looked at Wan Gui with a complicated expression.
"Brother Wan..., are you...she telling the truth? Is the money you...really used to harm Senior Brother Di? Death Row, Pipa Bone...have you...been deceiving me all along? I it turns out……"
Qi Fang's speaking speed became faster and faster, and her voice became louder and louder. By the end of the sentence, she was in tears, and the makeup she had made was washed away by her tears, revealing a pale, pretty face filled with grief.
Neither Wan Zhenshan, Wan Gui, nor Shangzhi County expected that the "evidence" Zhao Qing found turned out to be an issue of government sentencing that most people in the world didn't care about. What they didn't expect was that the other party would actually Qi Fang, who was able to make "his side" transform into a witness, gave them a heavy blow.
Moreover, is this really the only piece of "evidence" prepared by Zhao Qing?
