Chapter 132 Shangguan Lan is here
Coming out again, Yun Wansheng handed the written confession to the woman: "Mrs. Tian, don't say I'm unkind. In order to avoid being bitten back by you in the future, I have written down all the crimes your brother committed and the trouble you caused in my house.
As long as you and your brother sign and seal it, I will not pursue the matter of him breaking into a private house and attempting to molest decent women."
Mrs. Tian subconsciously took the page, her eyes tinged with anger: "Aren't you forcing me?"
"You don't have to sign. You can just wait for the authorities to come and take your second brother away." Yun Wansheng chuckled.
"Sister, don't be afraid of her. When the government officials come, I will say that I saw her cheating and came to catch her in adultery, and that my injuries were caused by that wild man. It's not certain who the government will believe then," Tian Qiang said viciously.
"It seems that bad people are bad people. If I continue to be a good person, I will only bring trouble to myself. Let's wait for the government officials to come!" Yun Wansheng no longer showed mercy.
On the other side, Xiaolan originally wanted to go to Shuntian Yamen, but when she passed by the Military Affairs Office, she suddenly changed her mind.
Yun Wansheng was unaware of the maid's self-willed decision and was still waiting quietly in the yard. Mrs. Tian asked her to untie the rope on Tian Qiang several times, but she ignored her.
Just when she was getting impatient, there was a noise at the gate of the courtyard, which made her look at the person who came. When she saw who it was, she was slightly stunned.
At this time, Shangguan Lan was wearing a dark green military officer's uniform, which made his tall and straight figure look even more burly. Before he even got close, a sense of oppression came over him.
The several subordinates behind him who were armed with swords were also very heroic and full of vigor, with a military temperament spreading all over their bodies, making people dare not underestimate them.
The government officials arrived, and the neighbors who came to watch the excitement also blocked the door.
"You...why are you here?" Yun Wansheng looked at the man approaching in surprise.
"Your maid went to the Shuntian government office to report a case. It happened that Lord Li was unwell and I happened to be there, so he asked me to handle the case for him." Shangguan Lan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, as if he was telling the truth.
"Then I'll trouble you. This man broke into my house last night, intending to commit a crime. I injured him when he climbed through the window. Then the three of us, master and servant, tied him up and waited for the next morning to send him to the authorities.
When it got light, I recognized who this man was. He was the second brother of my neighbor Mrs. Tian.
"I originally wanted to spare the thief for the sake of our neighbors, but I didn't expect his brother and sister to stay in my house. I had no choice but to report him to the authorities," Yun Wansheng said simply and clearly.
As soon as she finished speaking, Tian Qiang, who was sitting against the wall, shouted, "You're talking nonsense. It was obviously you who stole someone in the middle of the night, but you turned around and slandered me.
"Commander, I know you know this woman, but you are from the Eastern Qiang! You must not side with a woman from the enemy country." He knew Shangguan Lan.
Shangguan Lan glanced at him coldly: "Although I know her, when it comes to major issues, I have always been upright, fair and honest, and will not favor any party.
Now it's your turn to speak. I'm here to remind you that if you dare to lie to me, I'll punish you by military law. I hope you'll think it over before you speak."
When Tian Qiang heard the words "martial law", his face changed. This made him think for a moment, and finally decided to take a gamble. As long as he insisted that he was here to catch an adulterer, they would not dare to do anything to him.
Thinking about it, he said with a look of grievance: "Commander, I couldn't sleep last night, so I thought of walking around the street. But as soon as I left the house, I saw a man climbing over the wall and entering this woman's house.
At first I thought there was a thief, so I wanted to help her catch the thief, but when I entered her yard, I heard the sound of flirting between a man and a woman coming from the house. Then I realized that this woman was stealing a man.
So I wanted to catch that wild man and expose their affair to the public.
Unexpectedly, the wild man was very skilled and I had a disability in my legs, so I was no match for him. After beating me, he tied me up and asked the woman to tell others that I came in with bad intentions, so that both of them would be cleared of the charges.
"Commander, please stand up for me! I'm innocent." In order to make the evidence more convincing, Tian Qiang refused to admit that it was the woman who kidnapped him.
He didn't see his brother-in-law being kicked away, which made him think that this woman was an easy target.
At that time, his face was facing the wall. He only heard Yan Dali scream in pain and thought that the woman had just hit him a few times, making him afraid to mind his own business.
What he was thinking was, who would believe that a weak woman like her wanted to tie him up for a night? Even if she said that she tied him up, it would not be convincing. He could also say that it was the man who tied him up. Then they would argue with each other, and it would depend on what the commander would decide.
As a military general, he would certainly not believe that a weak woman would tie him up for a whole night.
After hearing this scoundrel's nonsense, Yun Wansheng's face lit up with anger. "Shameless bastard! Commander, what he said is all slander. I was the one who inflicted the wound on his leg, and I was the one who tied him up."
"How could a weak woman like you hurt a grown man like me? Stop trying to make excuses. It was that wild man of yours who hurt my leg, and he was also the one who tied me up. Commander, you must understand this!" There was a sinister flash in Tian Qiang's eyes.
Shangguan Lanjun looked at him with a slightly cold expression: "Where are you injured?"
"Look at my left calf." As he said this, he tried to lift his leg despite the pain.
Shangguan Lan took two steps forward to look at his wound. In order to see it more carefully, he tore open his trouser leg. He saw that the wound was partially circular with flesh and blood turned outward. It was obvious that he was hit by some hidden weapon.
"Yun Wansheng, he was injured by a hidden weapon. You said you hit him yourself. Do you have that hidden weapon?" Shangguan Lan looked at the woman beside him.
Yun Wansheng took out the black pistol from her bag and said, "Here, I used it to injure this bastard."
Shangguan took the gun, and it felt so heavy in his hand that he couldn't help but want to play with it.
"Can you use it again?"
Yun Wansheng nodded, then took back the pistol and shot at the small tree in the yard.
Shangguan Lan heard a muffled sound and saw the small tree shaking a few times, and a small hole appeared in the middle.
"What a powerful hidden weapon!"
Tian Qiang's sister and brother also saw it and couldn't help but feel a little scared, but now that things have come to this, they can only fight to the end. Tian Qiang doesn't want to be punished by military law.
"Commander, this thing was given to her by that man. This doesn't mean that she was the one who injured me."
Upon hearing this, Yun Wansheng cursed coldly, "You scoundrel! Commander, my method of tying people up is different from others. Have your subordinates tie him up as well and see if their method is the same as mine. Or have them tie him up the same way I do. If it's the same, I won't say anything."
Seeing her confidence, Shangguan Lan raised his eyebrows and signaled his subordinates to do as the woman said.
