"I thought you were here to watch a show?" Meng Yue said with a sneer.
"I'm sorry, Law Enforcement Officer Meng, we have our own rules. We cannot expose ourselves unless our lives are in danger." Leng Feng explained to Meng Yue.
"Forget it, you are not my people. You can come out whenever you want. But I still want to thank you." Meng Yue felt that she had overstepped her bounds. Although they were all the master's people, they all had different divisions of labor.
"No need to thank me. We all have the same owner and should be a family. There's no need to be polite among family members," said Leng Feng.
"Let's go to the front yard quickly, your adults are here." Meng Yue said.
So the three of them came to the front yard.
"Boss Leng, what brings you here to see me?" County Magistrate Jiang came to the front yard and asked Leng Yu in confusion when he saw him.
"I heard that Lord Jiang captured my cousin, so I came here to ask Lord Jiang why." Leng Yu said straight to the point.
"Boss Leng's cousin? Who is she?" County Magistrate Jiang was confused. He had never heard that Boss Leng had a cousin.
"Meng Yue." Leng Yu said.
"Is it her? I didn't expect her to be Boss Leng's cousin. Sadly, she's a murderer, responsible for multiple deaths." County Magistrate Jiang was a bit alarmed when he learned Meng Yue was Boss Leng's cousin. Listening Snow Tower's intelligence was always accurate, and their connections were extensive. If Boss Leng insisted on speaking up for Meng Yue and seeking information about him, he would definitely investigate thoroughly. He couldn't let that happen.
"Really? If I ask Lord Jiang to release her, I wonder what Lord Jiang will do?" Leng Yu asked Lord Jiang.
"I'm afraid that won't work. She is a murderer. I must handle this impartially and seek justice for those who died. I must execute Meng Yue." Lord Jiang had a stern and righteous expression, determined to eliminate this evil for the people.
"Really? Even if it means becoming an enemy of Tingxue Tower, you will still do it?" Leng Yu asked Lord Jiang with a sneer.
"Yes, for the sake of justice and for the sake of the dead, I must kill Meng Yue, even if it means offending Tingxue Tower in the future." County Magistrate Jiang put on an expression of sacrificing his own family for the sake of justice to prove that he was a good official who worked for the benefit of the people.
"What a righteous official! But Lord Jiang, don't forget what Listening Snow Tower is all about? I've dug up all the things you've done, without even a scratch. And you still want to be my enemy?" Leng Yu looked at County Magistrate Jiang with disdain. What a hypocrite! Still daydreaming even at the brink of death. How disgusting!
"You, you are slandering me. Believe it or not, I will charge you with the serious crime of slandering an official appointed by the court, and then behead you in public. Then I will occupy Tingxue Tower and use it for my own purposes." County Magistrate Jiang said threateningly.
"Oh, I want to see whether you kill me or I kill you. Don't forget, I have a lot of evidence of your crimes, and each and every one of them is enough for you to die a hundred times. You decide to remain so stubborn." Leng Yu also sneered at County Magistrate Jiang.
"Come here, arrest Boss Leng. He is in cahoots with the murderer Meng Yue." County Magistrate Jiang said to the constable.
"Let's see who dares! Lord Jiang, this is a private matter between you and me, don't involve the innocent. I have dealt with all your constables, and you have decided to send someone else to die." Meng Yue came to the front yard at this time. After hearing what Lord Jiang said, she stopped the other constables.
"You, don't be so arrogant. Assaulting an imperial official is a capital offense, and your entire clan will be implicated." said County Magistrate Jiang.
"Of course I know. What if it's an imperial official who beats up the rich and unkind, harms the people, and is punishable by anyone? Do you think the emperor will let such an official go and punish me, the one who eliminates harm for the people and removes the cancer for the court?" Meng Yue said with a sneer.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Did you know that slandering an imperial official is also a capital crime?" County Magistrate Jiang said with forced composure. She couldn't possibly have evidence. He was always very careful in his work, so it was impossible for him to have any. This was just her testing. If she had evidence, she would have produced it long ago. He couldn't be fooled by her. He had to stay calm.
County Magistrate Jiang suppressed his panic and kept telling himself that the other party was defrauding him.
"Whether I'm talking nonsense or not, you'll know after reading these." Meng Yue threw a stack of papers at County Magistrate Jiang's feet and said with a sneer.
County Magistrate Jiang picked up the paper and read the contents. He was horrified. He looked at the next page, and then the next, in disbelief. Finally, he collapsed to the ground, his heart broken. He kept muttering, "It's over. It's completely over now."
No, I can't give up like this. Without evidence, the court can't do anything to me.
County Magistrate Jiang took the paper, tore it up with force, scattered all the evidence, threw it into the air, and spoke madly.
"Now that there is no evidence, what can you do to me? Do you think you have won and can convict me? You are so naive. Without these evidences, will the people believe you? Will the court believe you? Hahaha, this really makes me laugh to death." County Magistrate Jiang challenged Meng Yue in a very arrogant manner.
"Tear it up? Tear it up hard! The evidence has long been handed over to Magistrate Wen. Laugh quickly, I'm afraid you won't be able to laugh later. Magistrate Wen is already on the way, and you won't be able to laugh in about an hour. Now enjoy the rest of your time." Leng Yu looked at County Magistrate Jiang with disdain, as if the other party was a dead man.
