Gu Beijian sent Tian Qing and several others to pretend to be corpses, lying in the ruined temple, waiting for the black-skinned man to return again.
The real body has been handed over to Yao Wenyuan.
"Brothers, hurry up, hurry up!" The dark-skinned man lit a torch and waved outside.
Tian Qing and others closed their eyes tightly, but they didn’t expect that Gu Beijian had guessed it right. These people really came again!
The dark-skinned men came in and didn't care whether the corpse on the ground was their brother or not. They carried it on their backs and were about to leave. Tian Qing put a dagger against the dark-skinned man's neck and said, "Don't move!"
Others also had their daggers against the necks of the others.
The dark-skinned man hadn't expected them to pretend to be a corpse. For a moment, he could only admit his carelessness and admit defeat. "Don't kill me, don't kill me! I can tell you the plans and intentions of the man who wants to kill your master!"
Tian Qing said fiercely, "Behave yourself and don't try any tricks!" Gu Beijian came in with Yao Wenyuan's yamen runners and had these people tied up.
"You said you can tell the plans and intentions of the person who wants to kill me?" Gu Beijian asked.
"I can say it, but can you give me and my brothers a lighter punishment?" The dark-skinned man pleaded when he saw the yamen runner.
Yao Wenyuan and Gu Beijian exchanged a glance and said, "If you are willing to cooperate with the authorities, we can apply for a lighter sentence for you."
When the dark-skinned man saw that the two people agreed, he blurted out everything he wanted to say.
Yao Wenyuan raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that Wang Deli, who pretended to be a good person in sheep's clothing, turned out to be a cancer!
Gu Beijian's eyes rolled. "Why don't you just do as he says and lure him out? Then tell him you want him to witness my beheading, and then I'll give you the rest of the money so you can run away."
The dark-skinned man looked at Gu Beijian and then at Yao Wenyuan, and Yao Wenyuan nodded.
The dark-skinned man thought that the official's words would be effective, so he agreed.
"Don't even think about running away. My brothers and I are watching you." Tian Qing threatened viciously as he untied him.
The dark-skinned man waved his hands repeatedly, "I dare not, I dare not."
The dark-skinned man went to find Wang Deli as Gu Beijian said. Wang Deli was confused for a moment. How could he catch Gu Beijian so quickly?
"It's absolutely true. Gu Beijian seemed to be looking for something by himself. I think it should be the hairpin I gave you. I didn't expect you to see Gu Beijian's head fall off with your own eyes. Don't worry, we can just take the money and run away, right?" The dark-skinned man smiled flatteringly.
Wang Deli had suffered losses at the hands of Gu Beijian several times, so it was a pleasure for him to see Gu Beijian's head fall to the ground with his own eyes.
I agreed to go with him to take a look.
Wang Deli and the dark-skinned man came to the dilapidated temple, only to see Tian Qing and several others dressed as the dark-skinned man's accomplices, standing behind Gu Beijian.
Gu Beijian was tied up with ropes and fainted.
Wang Deli reached out and pinched Gu Beijian's chin. After carefully confirming that it was Gu Beijian, he told the dark-skinned man, "Go ahead and kill him. If you kill him, I'll give you half of the remaining money."
Upon hearing this, the dark-skinned man immediately stretched out his knife and put it on Wang Deli's neck.
Wang Deli was shocked. "What are you going to do? I asked you to kill him, why did you put the knife to my neck?"
"Make amends!" said the dark-skinned man.
At this moment, Gu Beijian opened his eyes, and the ropes that bound him fell off. Yao Wenyuan walked out from behind the Buddha statue and said, "Mayor Wang, I didn't expect you to be such a person."
"Master Yao! I have been wronged! Master...Master!" When Wang Deli saw that the yamen runners had also arrived, he knew that he had fallen into a trap and regretted it very much.
"Hehe, I will decide whether it is a false accusation or not. Take him away." Yao Wenyuan waved his hand, and several yamen runners took him away.
Gu Beijian wiped his chin with the handkerchief handed to him by Tianqing and said with disdain, "Any cat or dog can touch my face..."
Yao Wenyuan smiled and said, "What on earth have you done that makes people want to kill you?"
"What else can I do? I'm just using your power to scare him and prevent him from doing things that bully the common people. He thinks I'm an eyesore and a nuisance. What can I do, cousin?" Gu Beijian pursed his lips and said innocently.
Yao Wenyuan knew Wang Deli was up to no good when he heard this. "Go back and interrogate him."
Yao Wenyuan went to court overnight to prevent Wang Deli from destroying all the evidence unfavorable to him after one night.
The residents near the yamen were alarmed by the noise and they all put on their clothes and watched the excitement at the gate of the yamen.
"Who made the mistake this time?"
"I don't know. We'll know when we see it."
"Why does the county magistrate always like to hold court in the middle of the night? I'm so sleepy..."
"You're still sleepy, but the county magistrate didn't even mention it..."
"Hey, I just want to watch the fun~"
The onlookers were talking to each other.
It wasn't until Wang Deli was kneeling on the ground with several corpses lying around him that he came to his senses and asked, "Isn't this our mayor?"
"Yes, I remember the mayor was quite nice. Why is he kneeling here at this time?"
"Listen to the rest..."
Yao Wenyuan slammed the gavel and said, "Wang Deli, now clearly state your crimes one by one. I can even ask the higher-ups to give you a lighter sentence. If you don't confess, then once I find out, there will be no room for you to change your mind!"
Wang Deli rolled his eyes and said, "I am wronged, sir..."
"Okay, okay, you still refuse to admit it at this time. Fine, put you in jail. I will report you all after I have found all the evidence!" Yao Wenyuan slammed the gavel and asked someone to take Wang Deli away.
