Chapter 94 Jiang Jing, do you know your crime?
In front of the government office.
Jiang Jing stopped everyone and was relieved to see that Jiusu was fine. He said, "The workshop is mine. She knows nothing about it. It has nothing to do with her."
Wang Daozhi sneered, totally unconvinced.
A convict opened a shop with the money he got? He pointed at Jiusu and asked, "Then why is she in the shop?"
"I just asked her to help pass on a message." Jiang Jing held her hand and motioned her not to speak. "Here is the shop's contract. If you release her, I'll go with you."
Wang Daozhi put away the shop deed and smiled frivolously, "You want to be a hero and save the damsel in distress? I'll give you this chance. Release Jiusu and take him to jail!"
Jiusu's eyes were slightly red, and she shook her head, "No..."
"Be obedient." Jiang Jing was restrained by the yamen runners and gave Jiusu a comforting smile. After turning around, his face became extremely cold. He said sideways, "Wang Daozhi, you came here to target us, right?"
Wang Daozhi put his shoulder on him and said arrogantly and arrogantly.
"If it weren't for you two bitches, the prefect and I would have been promoted and made a fortune. Now, I have fallen to this point. Jiang Jing, I will kill you first, and then kill Jiusu. However, you kneel on the ground now and get under my crotch. I can be gentle with your sweetheart~"
That disgusting tone and fat ears.
Jiang Jing stopped and coldly removed the pig's paw from his shoulder, anger flashing in his eyes. "Wang Daozhi, you don't have enough brains. Do you still want to go down this path to the end? I bet you'll die before me."
"Hahaha." Wang Daozhi laughed sinisterly, "You little fugitive, you want to fight me? You're just daydreaming."
Behind her, Jiusu felt a chill all over her body. He actually took the shop deed and replaced her.
"Dog officer!"
"Susu, my brother said that it's okay for men to suffer. If you go in, that beast won't know what to do..." Jiang Nianyin took her arm, comforting herself and also comforting Jiusu, "This is the letter my brother left for you."
Jiusu came back to his senses and opened the letter.
"Looking for a dead body." She murmured, thinking about the reason Wang Daozhi came. Someone died after drinking wine. Wine can't kill people. She put the letter away and forced herself to calm down. "Zitan, go see if Mr. Qiu has left. Koushao, please go and ask Mr. Qian for help."
She and Jiang Nianyin followed.
Half an hour later, the yamen opened.
Magistrate Zhang sat at the head of the table, next to Wang Daozhi. Surprisingly, the County Magistrate's authority was even greater. He looked at the assembled crowd. There were a few familiar faces: Mr. Qian, Shopkeeper Fang, and General Chen!? He tried to stand, but was glared back.
This is not an easy matter to handle.
If he plays tricks in front of the general and the news reaches Shengjing, his official hat will be in jeopardy. No, he has to discuss it with Wang Daozhi. "Wang..."
"Open the court! Call the prisoner!" Wang Daozhi saw that the county magistrate was reluctant to speak and was afraid that something might change, so he walked forward, took the wake-up stick, slammed it on the table, and shouted.
Seeing that the county magistrate didn't say anything, the bailiff brought Jiang Jing in.
Jiang Nianyin covered her mouth, tears streaming down her face, "Brother..."
The man had iron handcuffs on his hands and feet. When he came up, he saw his family and Jiusu. He was covered in hay and had wounds on his face. He smiled at them. When the yamen runner saw that he did not kneel down, he got a signal from the county magistrate and kicked him in the popliteal fossa.
"Kneel down when you see the Lord!"
The chain fell to the ground with a dull thud.
Bai Luoxue's pupils trembled slightly, and slowly emitted a bright light. She held back her tears. She had already thought about Jiang Jing's hard life, but seeing him become like this with her own eyes, she suddenly couldn't accept it. She took a deep breath and looked at Jiusu not far away.
His voice was trembling and full of blame.
"Sister, he's a criminal. If he takes the blame for you, it will only make his crime more serious. Is this how you like people?"
"What does it have to do with you?" Jiusu looked over indifferently.
She hoped that this time, it had nothing to do with Bai Luoxue, otherwise, she would definitely tell Chen Zhao Bai Luoxue's secret.
Chen Zhao frowned, his mind flashing back to the name his wife had called out that night. He followed her and asked, "Luoxue, you seem very worried about him?"
Bai Luoxue's body swayed, but fortunately Fangfei supported him.
She explained, "My husband, the Bai family and the Jiang family are on good terms. As a junior, I feel a little uncomfortable thinking about my uncle and aunt being bullied here. I never expected that my sister would be so cruel."
"If you feel uncomfortable, go back and rest!" Chen Zhao still felt uncomfortable. He glanced coldly at the person kneeling in the court and left.
Bai Luoxue's face turned pale and he hurried to catch up.
Jiang Nianyin wiped away her tears and said, "Serves her right. What kind of joke is she coming here to see?"
Bang! The wake-up stick slammed onto the table, blocking out all the chaotic sounds.
Magistrate Zhang breathed a sigh of relief. "Jiang Jing, you made wine without permission from the government, and thus killed someone. Do you acknowledge your crime?"
Jiang Jing stood up straight and spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"In reply to your Excellency, the production of alcoholic beverages does not require official permission. Furthermore, the production of alcoholic beverages requires layers of control. I will not tolerate the loss of life!"
What you said is reasonable.
Seeing Magistrate Zhang fall silent, Wang Daozhi stepped forward and pointed his finger excitedly, "You! You're talking nonsense! If you want to sell alcohol, you must get permission from the government. Otherwise, you're committing a crime!"
Jiang Jing sneered.
"If you are not familiar with the law, then go back and rewrite it. According to our dynasty's laws, except for salt and iron, official approval is required. Nothing else is required. Don't you two adults know this truth?"
Of course they don't know.
Each culture is lower than the other.
I got to my current position thanks to my relatives.
They both looked at each other, and an awkward atmosphere spread between them. How could they know? At first, County Magistrate Zhang was illiterate and only learned to write in order to cope with the inspection from above.
Magistrate Zhang whispered, "Master Wang, what do you think we should do?"
Wang Daozhi's hands were clenched tightly into fists under his wide sleeves, and he had a sinister look in his eyes.
He actually escaped!
"Okay! Then it's true that your wine poisoned someone! Come, call a witness!"
Immediately afterwards, the bailiffs came up with a stretcher with a corpse lying on it. The onlookers immediately covered their breath and stepped back in fear. A man and a woman followed behind them, came up, and knelt in front of the corpse, wailing loudly.
A light sniff of the aroma of white wine.
This is definitely not the smell of wine. Moreover, the smell of alcohol all over the body seems to be deliberate.
"Is Zitan not back yet?"
"Not yet." Kou Shao tiptoed to look around, her eyes lighting up, "Miss, she's here."
Zitan apologized as she squeezed into the crowd, walked to Jiusu's side, and whispered, "I waited for a while at the Qiu Mansion. Their housekeeper said that Master Qiu had gone out and would not be back until tomorrow at the latest."
call.
Jiusu took a deep breath and it seemed that he could only rely on himself.
Seeing Jiang Jing looking at her, she shook her head at him. The man didn't die because of her wine. There must be a loophole in the conversation.
Someone pinched his nose and said, "Oh my god, the smell of alcohol is really strong. He must have died from drinking too much."
"What kind of wine is this? I've never heard of it. Could it really be this wine that killed him? Then Jiang Jing is finished. He was already a fugitive..."
