Daming King of Punishment

Page 334

Li Xiuqiong naturally agreed nervously, promising that no third person would know about this matter.

After leaving this secret room, Li Xiuqiong's face immediately returned to ice-cold.Bai Zhuo outside was still waiting, and when he saw the county magistrate and Li Xiuqiong coming out, he rushed up immediately.

"What are you two doing in there?" Bai Zhuo asked the magistrate and Li Xiuqing angrily.

The county magistrate snorted coldly, "This is not under Lord Bai's jurisdiction!"

Li Xiuqiong lowered her head, as if avoiding Bai Zhuo as much as possible.

Faced with the situation of the two of them, Bai Zhuo frowned and clenched his fists, but he didn't say anything.

The county magistrate looked at Li Xiuqiong and said, "Then Master Li, go and prepare! I will come back later."

It is obviously not possible to take the money away openly today, after all, in front of Bai Zhuo, this cannot be justified from their previous performance.

The county magistrate and Bai Zhuo left, Li Xiuqiong looked at the back of them leaving at the door, with a complicated expression on her face.

"Master Li, what did you say to the county magistrate in the house?"

Suddenly, Li Xiuqiong was shocked by a question from beside her.He turned his head to look at the person beside him who was speaking, it was none other than the Hongshan Bandit who had been planted in his estate as a guard.Hearing this, his face immediately became gloomy.

"You can't control this!"

Li Xiuqiong really didn't want to have a word with this guy, because he hated these people too much.

But the spy didn't intend to just let it go, he laughed: "Master Li must still not understand the current situation? If I talk nonsense to the higher authorities, I don't know what will happen to you, Master Li." !"

Being so threatened, Li Xiuqiong was stiff all over, and he was so angry that he already wanted to deal with this guy severely.But he knew he couldn't do this, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said through gritted teeth: "Isn't all the money already given to you? Didn't you say you were leaving?"

"Hmph! The matter is not over yet, why should I leave? As for the silver, it is really a small amount of money for a rich man like you, Zhuang Zhu. You don't have to worry so much about Zhu Zhuang, right?" The spy sneered , didn't care about Li Xiuqiong's anger at all, as if he was determined that Li Xiuqiong would not dare to do anything to him.

And the fact is the same, Li Xiuqiong has no other way to deal with this guy except to be angry in her heart.

"What exactly do you want to do?" But Li Xiuqiong really had no other choice, he looked at the spy angrily, suppressed the anger in his heart, and tried to keep calm.

The spy smiled coldly, looked up and glanced outside, but did not answer Li Xiuqiong's question directly.

"Master Li, let's talk about the magistrate's intentions first?"

After all, I went back to the previous question and went to work.

Li Xiuqiong couldn't help frowning and said with disgust on her face: "What else can I do? Naturally, they came to ask me for money."

"Ask you for money?" Hearing this, the spy was also stunned. He stared at Li Xiuqiong and asked, "Why did you give him money?"

"Do you still have to ask? Do you really think that the county magistrate can put a majestic court official in prison with my words?" Li Xiuqiong shouted angrily, pointing to the door: "You give What is mine? A dignified imperial envoy, do you think he can be dealt with so easily? If I didn't promise to bribe the county magistrate, do you think this matter would be successful?"

The spy's dignified expression gradually relaxed, and he suddenly sneered.

"So that's the case! Master Li really has a way, no wonder our leader is worried about this matter!"

Li Xiuqiong broke out in a cold sweat, he didn't expect that the county magistrate's arrival today would directly save his life.If the county magistrate hadn't arrived today, I'm afraid this family matter would be exposed, and Li Xiuqiong might really block the life of this Zhuangzi.

"Worried? What are you worried about?" Li Xiuqiong breathed a sigh of relief, and now she roared angrily: "I even risked my own son's life, what else can you do to me? What else is there to worry about? Only when all the members of my Zhuangzi are dead can you rest assured! Will you let us go?"

Seeing the anger on Li Xiuqiong's face, the spy didn't dare to face him directly. He scratched his head and shook his head a few times, then turned and left.

Li Xiuqiong's anger gradually subsided, he really hated these people.If his son was still alive, maybe he would have compromised all of this, but now that his son is dead, he is no longer willing to compromise.

Chapter 366 Don't Let Me Go

?Chapter 366

On the way back, the county magistrate and Bai Zhuo had nothing to say all the way, all of this was just their pretending, after all Song Wuya had warned them that this matter might be exposed because of a little thing, so they had to To be cautious, you must be fully alert.

It was not until the gate of the city that Bai Zhuo finally spoke.

"Master County Magistrate, I'm afraid you've gone too far with this matter. Don't think that I won't know what you and that Li Xiuqiong did in the room today!"

After coldly throwing down such a sentence, Bai Zhuo turned around and left, ignoring the county magistrate.

But the county magistrate stared at Bai Zhuo gradually going away, and took a long time to look away.

A yamen servant at the side looked up at Bai Zhuo's back, then looked at the county magistrate and asked, "Sir, shall we go back directly?"

"En! Let's go back." The county magistrate nodded indifferently, and went directly to the direction of the county government.

The yamen servant who followed behind did not stop there, after a short pause, he asked again: "Sir, if you offend Lord Bai and Lord Song like this, aren't you afraid that they will work together to wear shoes for you?"

"What?" The county magistrate was startled suddenly, turned his head to look at the yamen servant, and frowned.

"My lord, the little one is talkative. The little one is just curious. Just one of these two adults is not something you can compare to. If they deliberately cause trouble for you because of this matter, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it." ?”

Staring at this yamen servant for a long time, the county magistrate pondered in his heart, he sighed and said, "Hey! That's right. It's just that people live in this world, no matter what kind of person you are, no matter what you want to do Such a person, but facing some things, it is really hard to refuse."

The county magistrate said vaguely, but in fact he had already told him very clearly why he was willing to take such a big risk to offend the two court officials.

After hearing this, the yamen servant stopped making a sound, thinking that he had already understood what the county magistrate said, and this should be the answer he wanted.

Bai Zhuo went straight back to the inn, but as soon as he got back to the inn, he felt that he was in trouble.

Situ Wen, who was already waiting at the inn, saw Bai Zhuo coming back, and immediately got up to greet him.

"Bai Zhuo, why haven't you seen Wu Ya come back after waiting all day today?"

Bai Zhuo is most afraid of this question now, he really doesn't know how to answer it.The distance between these two places is really too short. When they came, it only took about an hour. Even if there was a delay, it would definitely not take so long.

On the way back earlier, Bai Zhuo had been thinking about what Song Wuya told him today, and he had completely forgotten that he had to deal with it when he came back.

He didn't think about how to deal with it in advance, and now he was asked a little bit, and he would inevitably feel a little flustered.

"This..." While hesitating, Bai Zhuo was thinking about how to answer this question. "Maybe it's something delayed by Zong Bing Chen! That's why Brother Wu Ya didn't come back early."

But Bai Zhuo's words were a bit false, he didn't believe that Situ Wen would believe them.

Sure enough, Situ Wen asked again directly: "Bai Zhuo, tell me the truth, did Wu Ya do something dangerous again and didn't want me to worry, so I let you keep it from me? He didn't go to Chen Zongbing at all. Instead, do something else!"

Being asked like this, Bai Zhuo panicked, how to answer became a question, he was already nervous just now, and now he is even more confused.

Before he could answer, Situ Wen already had the answer.

"Well, Bai Zhuo, I've always thought of you as an honest scholar who never lied. Now it seems that you, like Wu Ya, are full of nonsense."

One sentence made Bai Zhuo blush, he is really not good at this, if he hadn't been forced to this point, he would really not be willing to do this.

The embarrassed Bai Zhuo was really speechless, he could only helplessly look at Situ Wen and smiled wryly.

Situ Wen's face was full of anger at this moment, she stared at Bai Zhuo for a long time, making Bai Zhuo feel ashamed.
