When Congliu was thrown in front of Dou Xiu by the captain, he still didn't know what was going on.
I had just received instructions from the young master and was planning to find someone to kill Madam Dou.
As a result, not long after he walked out, he was knocked unconscious.
When he woke up, his eyes were covered.
When he was shouting that he was the eldest son of the county magistrate's family.
The black cloth in front of me was lifted.
When he got used to the light, he was just about to see which bastard dared to touch him on the territory of Hanzhong County.
He met Dou Xiu's fierce gaze.
"Dou, Lord Dou? Why is it you?"
The man's eyes widened, a look of horror crossing his face.
"Hmph, well, there's no need to interrogate this, it just came out on its own."
Zhao Jun sat aside and watched the show. She didn't care and just wanted to see how Dou Xiu handled it.
There is no need to talk about Dou Xiu, he recognized the person as soon as he was brought up.
He is an attendant who often follows Cong Wenchuan.
"Tell me the truth. Was it Wen Chuan who gave you the idea to injure my wife's leg and then spread rumors about my daughter?"
Liu Yi panicked the moment he saw Dou Xiu, and became even more panicked when he heard the questions he asked.
Everyone knows how ruthless and selfless Dou Xiu is. What should we do now?
"Master Dou, I know I was wrong. It was indeed our young master who instructed me to do this. It was he who came up with this idea because he liked Miss Dou."
"I was just following orders. Besides, this thing has not been carried out. I hope you will be lenient with me."
I don’t know how this matter was leaked, but it has come to this.
I can't hide it anymore, so I've got to put the blame on you, Master. With you here, the worst that can happen is a minor punishment or a severe warning.
He quickly came up with the idea.
Zhao Jun, who had been listening nearby, lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Sir, this..."
Dou Xiu was a little undecided and turned to look at Zhao Jun.
This guy was caught and the interrogation was easy, except for the later part.
"According to Qin law, how should this situation be handled?" Zhao Jun asked.
"My Lord, according to Qin law, if they really did cause any injury, they should be punished with tattooing and exile."
Dou Xiu answered truthfully.
"I understand. I'll leave this person to you. Have someone take him away and lock him up first."
Zhao Jun has already thought about how to punish him.
From the six kneeling on the ground looking around, he wondered what to do. It shouldn't be exile.
"Sir, please forgive me. This was all instructed by our young master. You must be lenient with me."
Congliu screamed and was quickly taken away.
"Sir, look at this..."
"This guy is very dishonest. He was clearly the one who instigated Cong Wenchuan to do this, but he put all the blame on Cong Wenchuan. I think if we keep him here, he might do something terrible."
Zhao Jun spoke slowly, she had already thought of the punishment for this person.
If Cong Wenchuan had not been so courageous at the time, he would probably have been instigated by him to do something worse.
Dou Xiu understood what Zhao Jun meant.
"Your Excellency, I understand. As the mastermind, I will punish Liu with tattooing and exile."
"As for Cong Wenchuan, you should review this matter with the County Magistrate. You should also let them confront each other. As for the final result, you can tell me as soon as you finish the review today. I will go directly to the County Magistrate's Mansion to hear the result tomorrow morning."
"After all, this supervisory interrogation is Lord Dou's job, so I won't interfere."
At this point, Zhao Jun has already said what he wants to deal with.
She is mainly responsible for the sixth grade, and as for the literary transmission, he will definitely be taught a lesson.
"Yes, sir. I will handle this impartially and give you a fair answer tomorrow."
Dou Xiu stood up and said solemnly.
"Okay, you guys take care of the rest, we should go have dinner."
"By the way, I have a letter to be delivered to Xianyang. Please send someone to deliver it urgently."
The King of Zhao did not forget to inform Ying Zheng that the captains around her could not leave, so he let the people from the prefecture and county handle it.
"Yes, sir, I will have someone do it right away."
Dou Xiu took the letter nervously, wondering if there was anything extraordinary written in it.
After handing the things over, she smiled and nodded at Dou Jiaying, who had been sitting next to her without saying a word.
"Yes, sir, it's time for dinner." Dou Jiaying stood up and responded gently.
Dou Xiu looked at the two people who were talking familiarly and remembered something he had just temporarily ignored.
How could his daughter know Lord Nei Shi? His tone sounded familiar.
"Yes, yes, it is indeed time for dinner. My Lord, why don't you stay in the mansion and have dinner?"
Although Dou Xiu didn't know what was going on, he still agreed.
"No, Dad, I've already booked a dinner at the White Jade Tower tonight for you, so we won't be eating at home."
Dou Jiaying still spoke gently, but did not look at her father.
"Ah? Then me too..."
How come he doesn't know when the Baiyu Tower was booked?
Just when he was about to say he would go along, Zhao Jun interrupted him.
"Miss Dou and I hit it off right away. We've agreed to have dinner and chat together tonight, so we won't be dining with Lord Dou. I'm sure Miss Dou will take good care of us."
Mr. Zhao didn't want Dou Xiu to disturb their banquet.
With him there, what topics can we talk about that we can't talk about? It's so boring.
After Zhao Jun finished speaking, he took Qingliu and Dou Jiaying and prepared to go out the door.
"Um, then, okay, I'll bid you farewell, sir."
Before Dou Xiu could react, they had already walked away.
"This Baiyulou is a very famous restaurant here."
After leaving the Dou Mansion, Zhao Jun and the others did not take a carriage, but walked slowly on the street.
"Yes, Baiyulou has been open for many years. Some time ago, I came from Xianyang to learn how to cook. The taste is very good. I'm sure you've eaten there."
Several people were chatting as they walked.
"Needless to say, cooking is something we adults studied." Qingliu replied with a smile and started to flatter.
"So that's how it is. Then my Lord, you must try the difference between our Hanzhong County stir-fried dishes and those in Xianyang."
Dou Jiaying was a little surprised. She didn't expect that such an adult would actually learn to cook.
As evening approached, many people came and went on the street, and some of them recognized Dou Jiaying and greeted her.
Zhao Jun walked here. Unlike the quietness of the county town, it was more lively and energetic.
"By the way, I have one more thing I want to ask."
Zhao Jun suddenly spoke. When she heard it before, she wanted to ask someone later, and now was the perfect time.
"What's the matter, sir?" Dou Jiaying looked at her.
"It's said that Qin's laws are strict. If it's considered intentional injury, the penalty would be facial tattooing and exile, right? What about defiling a woman?"
She had this question when she heard the attendant say at the corner that the punishment for rape was not severe.
It is said that Qin laws were strict. Isn’t that true?
