County Magistrate Li was stunned when he heard this, and quickly called to Mr. Li: "Just stay here!"
Young Master Li did not dare to disobey his father's order, so he had to grit his teeth and swallow his anger.
Zhou Ruiyuan walked to Du Wanchun and continued to County Magistrate Li: "Whether Eldest Young Master Li has anything to do with this matter, Liu Lanzhi has already personally stated that it was Eldest Young Master Li who asked her to find a way to bring my wife to the house. He had the wolfish ambition to rob civilian girls from the very beginning! How dare he deny it now!"
Magistrate Li was speechless for a moment.
Zhou Ruiyuan continued: "If County Magistrate Li cannot handle it impartially, then we will file a lawsuit with Qingzhou Prefecture and let Magistrate Zheng come and interrogate him personally."
Magistrate Zheng is famous for his uprightness. If he is really allowed to do that, it will be a matter of trouble.
After hearing this, County Magistrate Li frowned and thought hard. Finally, he slapped the table hard and said, "How can I, the magistrate, be partial to others? Don't worry, I will definitely return justice to your Zhou family." ?.? ????.ℂ??
After that, he said sternly to Mr. Li: "Tell me the truth quickly!"
Young Master Li gritted his teeth and refused to say anything.
County Magistrate Li got excited and waved to the government servant on the side: "If you don't tell the truth, I will be tortured!"
Young Master Li suddenly raised his head and looked at him, "Dad, you don't really want to torture me!"
Magistrate Li said sternly: "In this court, I am not your father! Tell the truth quickly, or else you will be served with a stick!"
Young Master Li knew he was afraid this time, and he quickly knelt down and said, "Dad, I did have this idea, but I really didn't ask Liu Lanzhi to kidnap anyone!"
Zhou Ruiyuan snorted coldly and said, "It seems that Mr. Li personally admitted it."
Magistrate Li had a grim look on his face, and in desperation he ordered the yamen servant: "Drag Li Maosheng down and hit him with twenty boards as punishment!"
"Yes, sir."
The government officials stepped forward and lifted Mr. Li up.
Mr. Li was so frightened that his legs weakened. He shouted at County Magistrate Li, "Dad, I know I was wrong. Don't let them hit me, dad!"
Soon, the cries of pain from Master Li and Liu Lanzhi were heard in the courtyard of the Yamen.
Twenty big boards is not a small amount. The two people were beaten so hard that they couldn't get off the ground.
Seeing that it was almost the same, Du Wanchun took the Zhou family and his family out of the Yamen.
As soon as they left, County Magistrate Li had someone write a letter of divorce and handed it to Liu Lanzhi, and sent someone to pack her back to the Du family.
The Du family is also in a mess.
Hongxiang became pregnant and became the master of the Du family.
Mrs. Liu stayed shamelessly at Du's house and served Hongxiang tea and water at home.
When I saw my daughter who was sent back, I burst into tears.
This matter soon spread from person to person, and people in several nearby villages knew about it.
Du Wanchun and his family did not rush to leave in Cheng'an County. They bought some daily necessities in a nearby shop, such as oil and cloth.
Aunt Zhou calculated her money and planned to buy a better wooden comb for Du Wanchun.
She turned around and called to Zhou Ruiyuan: "Ruiyuan, have you seen any rouge shop nearby?"
Zhou Ruiyuan raised his head and pointed forward, "There is a family there."
Aunt Zhou whispered: "Your wife, you haven't even got a decent comb since you entered the house. You go inside and buy an agarwood one, and give her a surprise when you get back."
Zhou Ruiyuan nodded. In fact, Zhou Ruiyuan didn't need to tell her, he had already planned to buy it for Du Wanchun.
While Du Wanchun went to buy oil, Zhou Ruiyuan secretly went to the rouge shop.
In addition to wooden combs, the rouge shop also has many kinds of rouge.
After Zhou Ruiyuan bought the comb, he hesitated for a long time, and finally took out the only copper plate he had and bought a small box of rouge.
When he was about to go out with his rouge and wooden comb, he bumped into someone.
A tall man, wearing a black gown, looked coldly.
Zhou Ruiyuan was startled and quickly lowered his head and passed him by.
The man finally spotted Zhou Ruiyuan, and he quickly turned around and chased after him, "Your Highness!"
