However, Song Wuya's expression became extremely solemn. Since this person dared to bring this matter to court, he must have some means to prove it. Maybe they couldn't explain this matter clearly.
The county magistrate continued with what he just said.
"At that time, you..." The county magistrate raised his finger to Song Wuya: "You saw the rain was red, and you took the opportunity to go out to see the situation, pass by him through the crowd, and He stole the jade pendant hanging from his waist."
"Joke! Look at his virtue, should he have a jade pendant?" Bai Zhuo shouted angrily when he heard the county magistrate's words.
The county magistrate looked at Bai Zhuo coldly, and said angrily: "If you dare to yell at the court again, I will never let you down!"
After yelling at Bai Zhuo, the county magistrate said again: "It was raining heavily at the time, and once it entered the rain, he had no time to catch you. And after the rain stopped, because of the chaos of the crowd, he didn't find you. Don't miss it, let him see you in the inn, and then reported the case. What happened, that's it, do you two have anything to say?"
The county magistrate had finished talking about the matter, and looked at Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo with burning eyes.
Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo really had no way to explain this matter, and Bai Zhuo was furious at the moment, if he was not afraid that his impatience would ruin the matter, he would have ruined the matter.
Song Wuya looked up at the man kneeling on the ground: "Okay, we are very clear about your purpose. Since you dare to go to court, you naturally have something to rely on. Presumably at this time, the government servants have already searched our luggage at the inn right?"
"Hmph! A thief is still so arrogant." The man froze angrily.
This is extremely uncomfortable to hear.
Song Wuya didn't pay attention to this, but continued to say: "Presumably, your jade pendant can also be found. But there are other things, I'm afraid you can't think of them."
After saying this to the kneeling man, Song Wuya raised his head and looked at the county magistrate again: "Master county magistrate, wait a moment, there must be something that will open your eyes."
"What did you say?" The county magistrate frowned, looking at Song Wuya in confusion.
Song Wuya didn't clarify the matter, he looked at the county magistrate and said: "I don't know if the county magistrate has ever asked this person what his jade pendant looks like, but are there any characteristics that can prove that the jade pendant is his?"
"Naturally, I have to ask this question. This county is not a foolish county magistrate. He will never wrong a good person." The county magistrate immediately nodded and said, but he suddenly changed the subject and said: "But if, if someone is in front of this magistrate Committing a crime, the official will definitely let him escape the law."
After hearing this, Song Wuya nodded and said nothing more.
After waiting for a short time, there was a sudden cry from outside the door: "My lord!"
The county magistrate suddenly frowned, and frowned, "What are you shouting for? Did you find the jade pendant?"
Soon the yamen servant who was screaming outside ran in, bowed to the county magistrate and said, "My lord! The jade pendant was found, and there were two women who were with them, and we brought them along. But... ..."
"But what? Why are you talking hesitantly? Could it be that you have done something shameful and dare not say it?" The county magistrate was furious, and was choked by this yamen servant.
After the yamen servant heard this, he immediately bowed and said: "No, no, the subordinates didn't do anything. It's just that they found other things in their luggage! It seems...it seems to be an official credential!"
"What? An official credential? Show it to me!" The county magistrate stood up in shock when he heard this, and looked at the yamen servant with a nervous expression on his face.
The yamen servant handed the things to the county magistrate. The county magistrate looked at the things in his hand, and the expression of surprise on his face quickly turned into fear, and the hands holding the official certificate began to tremble involuntarily.
"Haha! Magistrate, I didn't expect you to have something to be afraid of? Just now, I heard your tone, it seems that I want to punish me?" Bai Zhuo was gaining power at the moment, and immediately sneered.
Hearing Bai Zhuo's words, he was shocked, and immediately ran out from behind the case, and when he came to the hall, he knelt down in front of Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo.
"Damn the lower official! The lower official has no eyes, and offended the two imperial envoys, he deserves death!" Cold sweat dripped from the county magistrate's forehead to the ground.
Such a sudden turn of events surprised everyone present.But the county magistrate's terrified appearance was obviously not a joke, and the others also knelt down to Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo's luggage.
Seeing the county magistrate kneeling in front of him, Bai Zhuo hurriedly stepped forward to help him up: "Lord magistrate, what are you doing? In this courtroom, I should kneel down when I see you as a majestic county magistrate! "
"Don't dare!" The county magistrate didn't dare to stand up at all, and even shook his head like a rattle drum when he heard Bai Zhuo's words, and didn't dare to nod.
Seeing this situation, Song Wuya immediately interrupted Bai Zhuo: "Alright, magistrate, please get up."
"Thank you, sir." The county magistrate heard Song Wuya's words, and then slowly got up.
I'm afraid that at this time, the county magistrate felt extremely remorseful. He almost convicted the imperial envoy just now, and almost made the imperial envoy kneel down for him.Fortunately, he didn't care about this matter at the time, otherwise he would be in trouble now.
After getting up, the county magistrate said: "You are blind, these two are imperial envoys, how could they steal your worthless jade pendant, why don't you hurry up and get out of here!"
The man was also panicked, how could he have thought that the two people he insisted on were actually the imperial envoys.
Seeing the man got up and was about to leave in a panic, Song Wuya raised his hand: "Wait a minute! This case can't be dismissed just because we are imperial envoys. So many people outside this hall are watching, so the people think I am an imperial envoy from the imperial court, but I only know how to use officials to suppress people! I am afraid that this matter is not to discredit me, but to discredit the Holy Majesty."
After saying this, the person who accused Song Wuya of stealing the jade pendant quickly waved his hand and corrected his words: "The little one is blind and misjudged the wrong person. The people who stole my jade pendant are definitely not the two adults."
Hearing this, Song Wuya immediately sneered: "Hmph! It's really a joke. According to you, the yamen guard who searched our luggage just now slandered me?"
"This...don't dare!" The man was incoherent when asked by Song Wuya, and he didn't know how to respond.
Song Wuya didn't bother to pay attention to him, walked towards the case, and immediately saw the jade pendant.
This jade pendant is not too big, but the texture on it is somewhat inexplicable.Song Wuya looked at the jade pendant, looked up at the county magistrate, and said, "Master County Magistrate, from the perspective of this official, not only have you accomplished your job as an official, but you have also lived enough."
The county magistrate, who was already trembling, knew that this time he was in trouble.Unexpectedly, with just this one sentence, Song Wuya would say such serious words.
The county magistrate, who was still kneeling on the ground, suddenly panicked, kowtowed his head like pounding garlic, and begged in his mouth: "Master Imperial Envoy, please forgive me, I am guilty!"
"Then do you know what crime you are guilty of?" Song Wuya asked coldly after hearing this.
The county magistrate opened his mouth and said: "The lower official offended the imperial envoy! He deserves death!"
"Huh! As the saying goes, those who don't know it is not an exaggeration. This matter is not a crime, but what I said is another matter." Song Wuya is not the kind of person who cares about everything, and will use his official authority to overwhelm others.
At the moment when he said this, the county magistrate's face changed suddenly, and his glasses rolled around, but he didn't know where he was wrong.He raised his brows, his face full of doubts: "My lord! Apart from offending your lord, what other crimes can I do?"
"Hmph! Colluding with thieves and defrauding other people's property, isn't that a crime?" Song Wuya said coldly.
"What?" The county magistrate was shocked, obviously he didn't expect Song Wuya to say such a thing.
He didn't know the meaning of Song Wuya's words at all, he could only look at Song Wuya in surprise.
Song Wuya knew that this guy would not plead guilty, and the other people present were naturally not aware of such a thing, so he immediately explained: "This jade card is just a proof, the main purpose of this guy is to To defraud this official of his money. The quality of this jade pendant is indeed good, and it is worth a lot of silver."
While saying this, Song Wuya turned his head to look at the yamen servant who reported the matter to the county magistrate: "Tell me, when you found this jade pendant, what happened to the burden?"
"This..." The yamen servant was asked by Song Wuya and didn't know how to answer.I don't know if it's because he forgot, or because he was frightened by the scene in front of him.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Song Wuya immediately reminded: "You tell everyone present loudly, where is this jade pendant in the package at that time."
"It's at the opening of the package, it fell out as soon as it was opened." The yamen servant pondered for a while, and answered without knowing what was going on.
Hearing this, Song Wuya immediately said again: "Okay, everyone is quite clear, right?"
He turned to everyone present, and also looked at the people outside the yamen: "If I really stole this jade pendant, then since I stole the jade pendant so quickly, why did I stuff it in the package and never go there again?" Pay attention to it? Could it be that the official thinks he is worthless, so he doesn't take it seriously?"

Chapter 548 I'm Not Here
Being asked such a question, the people present immediately began to discuss.Obviously, what Song Wuya said was a fact. After all, such a precious thing, whether it is stolen or his own, since it is placed in the package, it must be put away carefully, and it will never be stuffed in it at will. .
