Wen Xi looked at his frightened look and sneered: "If you want others to not know, you have to do nothing yourself."
"Both shopkeepers, the younger one doesn't dare anymore, the younger one says it all! Says it all!"
Xiaosi was originally a worker in a lumber factory. While working, he accidentally damaged a precious piece of wood from his former employer. He needed to pay twenty taels of silver. How could he have so much money? It happened that his neighbor was a handyman at Millennium Cloth Store, so he introduced him to Qianwen, who not only helped him repay the twenty taels of silver, but also was willing to give him an additional twenty taels after the project was completed.
Under the temptation of such benefits, he decisively agreed to come to Buzhuang to work under the pretense, and took the opportunity to burn down the warehouse.
I just didn't expect to be caught red-handed.
"Shopkeeper, I don't dare to do that anymore, I don't dare to do that anymore."
Wen Xi ignored his plea, waved his hand and secretly brought out a receipt.
"Put your fingerprints on this."
How dare Xiaosi say no, Ma Liu scrawled on it.
Wenxi ordered people to take care of Xiaosi, and Zhao Fulai went directly to the government office to play the drum early the next morning.
Zhao Fulai brought Xiaosi to the hall and presented the written evidence.
After a while, the shopkeeper of Qianqian Clothing Store was summoned.
Qianwen's heart skipped a beat when he saw Xiao Si kneeling there.
Seeing this, it is very detrimental to myself.
He glanced back and saw a man in the crowd dressed as a boy leaving quickly.
"Girl, do you want to follow me?" As soon as the man turned around, An Yi noticed him.
"Let Mu Runcheng follow."
"yes."
Wen Xi set his sights on Qian Wen, "Old man, I want to see where you can go to bring in reinforcements."
"Sir, Shopkeeper Qian asked me to do this! I'm just a handyman, how could I burn down my boss's warehouse?" Xiao Si knelt on the ground, trembling with fear, fearing that he would be imprisoned.
"You're talking nonsense! I've never seen you before, why are you still spouting nonsense!" Qian Wen pointed at Xiao Si and said angrily: "If you continue to talk nonsense, I will never give you mercy."
Seeing Qianwen's vicious look, Xiao Si was instantly frightened and dared not speak out.
He knelt even lower, almost lying on the ground.
Zhao Fulai stepped forward and said: "Sir Zhang, yesterday this man wanted to set fire to the villain's warehouse again. Fortunately, his friends helped him, otherwise those priceless clothes might have been destroyed again. Please seek justice!"
When Qian Wen saw that the boy he had just sent out came back, he seemed to feel confident. He snorted coldly and said, "What do you mean, Shopkeeper Zhao, that I bribed this person to deliberately set fire to your warehouse and burn your clothes?"
"It's written in black and white, and there's his handprint on it. Isn't it obvious? Do you still want to deny it?"
Zhao Fulai was always amiable on weekdays and greeted everyone with a smile. Today was the first time that he became cold and aggressive.
Even when the master chef of his shop was snatched away by Qianwen, he was just anxious to get angry and didn't even ask Qianwen for advice.
"What's the use of his pledge? How do I know it's not your plan to put this shit basin on my head?"
The two had a heated argument.
"Quiet!" Mr. Zhang knocked on the gavel tree and said loudly: "This is a courtroom, do you think it is a vegetable market? I have my own judgment, why do you need to interrupt!"
The two fell silent.
"Xiao Si, you said you were under the instruction of the shopkeeper of Qian Qian Buzhuang. Do you have any evidence?"
"No, no."
"Without any evidence, how are you going to prove that it was the shop owner of Millennium Cloth Shop who instigated you? This is a false accusation! Do you know your guilt?"
Xiaosi was so frightened that he didn't know what to do. He said in a panic: "Sir, I'm wronged! It was really Shopkeeper Qian who instigated the villain, and gave him forty taels of silver. That's right! In this matter, the villain My neighbor knows that he was the shopkeeper Qian who he introduced to the villain."
"Oh?" Mr. Zhang was sitting on the Grand Master's chair and was about to summon him when he saw a government servant walking up to him quickly, leaning over and saying a few words in his ear.
"I understand." He nodded.
Wen Xi clearly saw the change in the way the adult looked at Shopkeeper Qian from outside.
At this time, Muruncheng and An Yi came back one after another.
"Girl, everything is done." He handed a money bag to Wen Xi and continued in a different tone: "But the master said that the girl cannot be bullied, so..."
"So what?" She just asked Mo Yuyan to help find out the background of Qingping County Zhizhou behind Qianwen, but looking at An Yi's hesitant look, things were not as simple as she thought!
"My master said that those who bully girls are of no use keeping them."
Wen Xi: “·······”
? ? ?
"Your master, are you not afraid of being accused of abusing your power and avenging private revenge?"
An Yi was speechless. How could they, as servants, have the right to speculate on his master's thoughts?
However, the master's affection for Miss Wen Sima Zhao is probably known to everyone in the entire courtyard.
The secret guards who originally laughed at him for being sent to protect a woman are now envious of him.
After all, there are thousands of secret guards around the master, no more than one, no less, but the future mistress of the Zhan Prince Mansion only has one secret guard around An Yi!
To put it bluntly, based on Miss Wen's status in their master's heart, An Yi's right to speak in Prince Zhan's Mansion was definitely lower than that of one person and more than ten thousand people. I am afraid that even the housekeepers in the mansion would be ranked behind.
Can this not be enviable? Can you not be jealous?
Why didn't they know to seize the opportunity in the first place?
"Miss Wen, as you expected, the young man from the Millennium Clothing Village came to a village in the town. That village is said to be the property of the Li family. The governor of Qingping County is named Li."
So the yamen officer just brought this news to Mr. Zhang.
"How dare you! You still dare to quibble!" Mr. Zhang slapped the gavel hard, pointed at Xiaosi and said: "It seems that you don't need to be punished, but you are unwilling to speak!"
He said loudly: "Come here, give me a hard beating until he admits it!"
This is all about giving in and winning!
Zhao Fulai did not expect that the evidence was already in front of him. Mr. Zhang of the government not only refused to uphold justice, but also resorted to beating him to protect the instigator.
Xiao Si was so frightened that he was trembling all over. Wouldn't this slap on his body kill him?
Qian Wen knew that his boss was looking for someone to greet him, so he became unscrupulous and said, "Sir Zhang, I suspect that the shopkeeper of Fulai Buzhuang is working with this mistress, and the purpose is to put the blame on the villain." He knelt on the ground and almost burst into tears: "It doesn't matter if I have wronged the villain, but if I implicate the villain's boss, what should I do? Please make the decision for the villain!"
When he talked about his boss, he specifically raised his head to glance at Mr. Zhang, and sure enough, Mr. Zhang's expression changed instantly.
"Zhao Fulai, what do you say?" Mr. Zhang looked at Zhao Fulai with side eyes: "What the shopkeeper of Millennium Clothing Store said makes sense. Do you have evidence to prove your innocence?"
