Chapter 1169: Swapping a Shotgun for a Cannon

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Xue Xiaoren was also unlucky. He took advantage of his family's meager land holdings and could not find a way to make a living, so he spent all day doing nothing, hanging out in teahouses and gambling houses in the county town, and pawning around for help.

    That day, he was having breakfast in a teahouse on Xitang Street. When he heard that the county magistrate was going to court to investigate the case, he hurried over to watch the excitement so that he could brag to his friends later.

    I was rushing to Yaqian Street in excitement when I met Wang Bantou and his party.

    This kind of help is familiar to everyone, so Xue Xiaoren greeted Team Leader Wang diligently: "Good morning, Your Majesty, where are you going on business?"

    Although Bantou Wang is just like a dog in the yamen, his status in the county is not low at all. He is equivalent to the county criminal police captain, a figure respected by both black and white.

    He was walking on his way with a frown on his face. When he heard someone saying hello, he looked sideways and saw an idle man with oily hair and a pink face, and asked, "Who are you?"

    I thought I happened to meet such a guy and asked him if he knew where Xue Xiaoren was.

    Xue Xiaoren didn't expect that Team Leader Wang would be able to talk to him, and his bones went numb when he heard his question. He quickly stepped forward and said with a shy face: "You are such a noble person and forget things. My dear Xue Xiaoren, we were together in Cuihua last time."  Let¡¯s have a drink upstairs.¡±

    "Oh, really?" Wang Bantou responded casually, then his eyes widened and he said, "What did you say your name was?"

    "Xue Xiaoren? You are not a despicable 'villain', but a Xiaoren who 'knows benevolence and righteousness'"

    "I don't care what kind of villain you are." Wang Bantou glanced at the policeman behind him.

    The police officer calmly stepped forward and clamped him from left to right.

    "Let me ask you, was it you who reported on the Chu Liuxiang Tonghua Japanese case?" Wang Bantou asked him with a sinister smile.

    "Yes, yes" Xue Xiaoren felt something was wrong and wanted to retreat, but was caught by two detectives with their grappling hands. How could he move?  "What's wrong? Your Majesty, why are you arresting me?"

    "Nothing to do." Team Leader Wang laughed loudly and said, "It really takes no effort to get it. Take it back!"

    The two detectives couldn't argue with each other, so they carried Xue Xiaoren back to the county government office and slapped him in front of the grand master's hall.

    ??~~

    When it was revealed that he was behind him, Mr. Zhao slapped the crowd hard and shouted: "Xue Xiaoren, what evidence do you have to accuse Chu Liuxiang of being a Japanese invader?"

    "Back to my parents, I have the betrothal gift list as proof. He is a poor old man from Shandong. He disappeared for a year and came back and became rich overnight. How could he make so much money in Japan?" Xue Xiaoren quickly leaned over and answered.  He said, he hangs around in the county all day long, and his performance when meeting officials is much better than that of ordinary people.

    "However, Zheng Ruozeng, a gentry from this county, was commissioned by the Jiangnan Group to testify for Chu Liuxiang. He is a hero who fought against the Japanese, not a traitor who collaborated with the Japanese. What do you say?" Mr. Zhao asked coldly:

    "The heroes who fought against the Japanese could not earn that much money." Xue Xiaoren naturally wanted to be tough to the end.

    "Don't be so self-righteous, open your dog eyes and take a look!" Mr. Zhao said and waved his hand, and the yamen officer placed a salary slip from Jiangnan Group in front of him.

    ??

    "Bah, disgusting!"

    "False accusation!"

    ¡°Sit back, sit down, sit down!¡± The people watching the excitement shouted with indignation. After the hero was cleared of wrongdoing, the highlight was to catch the bad guy.

    With a ¡®pop¡¯ sound, Mr. Zhao slapped the gavel again and shouted majestically:

    "Hey, Xue Xiaoren, since you are a scholar, you should know that you should be punished for your crime if you make false accusations!"

    The so-called "false accusation and false accusation" is to punish the false accuser with the crime of false accusation.  Since the Qin and Han Dynasties, our country has had a system of severely punishing false accusations in every dynasty in order to eliminate evil spirits and regulate people's morals.  Guochao is naturally no exception.

    Xue Xiaoren was frightened, but since he dared to report, of course he had considered how to escape unscathed if the report failed.

    He quickly kowtowed and called out to the emperor, "Old parents, please forgive me. I am just an enthusiastic citizen who hates Japanese pirates. I am reporting purely out of anger. I have no intention of making a false accusation! At most, it can only be regarded as a 'false accusation'."  ¡­¡±

    The so-called "false accusation" means that it is false to accuse someone of a crime. If it is not intentional, it is not considered a false accusation.  Although you will also be punished, it is much lighter than falsely accusing someone of sitting back. Basically, you will be punished with three glasses of wine.

    "You said you didn't do it on purpose?" Zhao Shouzheng smiled evilly, which made him shudder again.

    "Ah, yes, it was definitely not intentional." Xue Xiaoren quickly clarified: "I had no grudges with Zhuangshi Chu in the past, and we have no grudges recently. What good does it do me to falsely accuse him?"

    Zhao Shouzheng sneered.??.  Only then did Zhao Shouzheng come to his senses, and then asked Chu Liuxiang: "Do you need me to help you terminate your engagement with the Wang family?"  "

    "Dismissed!" Chu Liuxiang immediately said with red eyes: "I don't want to be a cuckold!"

    "Hey, you haven't gotten married yet, and I can't even get green on your head." Zhao Shouzheng waved his hand to comfort him, and then said to Wang Xiucai: "When you get back, I will return the Gengtie gift and make up for it with a generous gift to apologize. Do you hear me?  ?¡±

    "I heard it, I heard it." Wang Xiucai nodded hurriedly, complaining secretly in his heart. He completely lost his money, and paid a lot of money.

    "Don't be sad. It's a good thing. It's better than finding out after you get married. Besides, there's no need for a real man to have a wife. After today, with your reputation as the gun king of Kunshan, the matchmaker will definitely break the threshold of your home!" Zhao  Shouzheng comforted Chu Liuxiang again.

    "Hey, hey." Chu Liuxiang nodded repeatedly, naturally saying what he said.

    "Since the old parents said this, I have to be shameless." Zheng Ruozeng suddenly interrupted and said with a smile: "Despite my age, there is still a girl waiting in the boudoir. Although she is not the daughter of the main wife, she loves treasures.  My character and appearance are quite acceptable, but I wonder if I can boldly ask my old parents to be a matchmaker and talk to Chu Zhuangshi."

    "Haha, the king of artillery exchanged his shot for a cannon, I think it will work!" Zhao Shouzheng was overjoyed when he heard this, slapped the table heavily and said: "That's it, quit!"

    ps. I must have caught a cold. I had a headache today and lay down all day. It got better in the evening. I got up and wrote a chapter and then went to bed quickly, hoping to get better tomorrow.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
