Chapter 121 Surrender
Wang Le's sister still has a fever.
Chen Guang's younger brother still has a broken leg.
Gao He's mother is still very ill.
It was freezing cold and the northwest wind was blowing. When they moved out of the village, they didn't even take their luggage with them.
When I lived in this courtyard, I also used the utensils that came with the courtyard.
Now a group of people were kicked out, and the only money they had was the five taels left behind by Song Qi before he left.
Five taels of silver, such a group of people, and patients, what is enough to do!
"It's too much. It's simply too much. There's no compassion at all!"
Gao He stood at the door, cursing angrily.
Chen Guang's face was dark, his fists were clenched tightly, and the veins on his forehead were pulsing.
Chen Guang had never suffered such humiliation in his life.
They were blasted out like this!
However.
Chen Guang underestimated the power of the county dude.
Just a moment after a group of them were blasted out, a pile of rotten vegetables, leaves, soil, and garbage came towards them intensively.
"You are not worthy of being a human being by falsely accusing your mentor!"
"Collude with traitors, frame loyal people, and tarnish saints!"
Those who hit them were not only the power of dandy, but also some ordinary people.
They once watched Zhou Huaishan fight in the ring, bought silk flowers sold by Zhou Qing, and even gossiped about the ten thousand words of love and hatred between Zhou Huaishan and Zhou Huaihai.
This time something happened to Zhou Huaishan, and they were angry that Zhou Huaishan had deceived them.
But now the plot has turned.
It was actually the academic master who bribed the students of Huaishan Academy to frame Zhou Huaishan.
At that moment, they became even more angry.
Of course, the dandy still plays a major role.
After all, this kind of thing requires someone to build momentum and stir up public sentiment.
Before Chen Guang and the others could realize what was happening, they suffered a life-threatening blow.
"Chen Guang, what should I do?"
Wang Le was so beaten that his nose was filled with snot and he cried.
Although Gao He is feeling better, he is still in a state of embarrassment, "Yes, they are surrounding me like mad dogs. What should we do now! If this continues, we will be beaten to death, if not sick."
Chen Guang raised his hand to block the rubbish thrown at him.
My heart was also in a state of confusion.
Could it be that Master Xuezheng was really arrested?
At that time, Master Xuezheng said that as long as the Zhou family came to visit, the people he sent could secretly create a scene where the Zhou family would kill them and silence them.
But now, they are all like this, what about the people secretly sent by Master Xuezheng?
After being beaten for a full quarter of an hour, Chen Guang and the others fled straight to the county government office without waiting for someone to reverse the plot.
The county magistrate is tutoring his son in his homework.
I have been teaching this extremely simple calligraphy for an hour, but when I write, I always end up with one stroke missing or one stroke there.
It's as if he is not writing but making up characters!
Made with you!
What if the things our ancestors made are not enough for you?
The angry county magistrate's eyes were on fire and he couldn't hold back his anger.
Suddenly I heard someone beating drums to complain, and the county magistrate went straight to the court with a face full of anger.
Seeing that it was Chen Guang and the others, the county magistrate felt suspicious, frowned, and said coldly: "Who are you going to sue this time?"
He didn't even bother to cover up the sarcasm in his words.
The case was handed over to Fucheng anyway, so there was no need for him to cover it up.
Chen Guang and the others clasped their fists and saluted, "I'm either suing someone, or I'm here to ask your lord, Zhou Huaishan's case has a result."
The county magistrate was already unhappy. After hearing this, he was immediately shocked and said angrily: "How outrageous! Is the court where you are my official your hut? Come here if you want! Is this grievance your family's broken bowl? ? Knock if you want!
You are just here to inquire about the progress of the case, but you are going to complain like this? "
Chen Guangqi smiled and said: "Sir, please calm down. The students are really helpless. The house we rented in the county was just taken back by the new landlord."
County magistrate
None of my business!
If you have the ability, go find Song Qi!
The county magistrate didn't say anything, and Chen Guang continued: "I don't know if we offended someone or if there was some misunderstanding. Now there are rumors outside, saying that Zhou Huaishan was wrongly accused, and that we were bribed by Master Xuezheng to frame him, but..."
"Wait, what did you say?"
The county magistrate has been so angry with his son's homework since he woke up early in the morning that he hasn't eaten anything outside yet!
Suddenly hearing this, I was startled.
Who is so open-minded and bold as to release such a true "rumor"!
I respect you as a man.
The county magistrate looked at Chen Guang with gleaming eyes.
Chen Guang
He couldn't help but twitch his eyes, and looked at the county magistrate in astonishment. He hesitated for a moment and said: "There are many rumors outside, saying that we framed Zhou Huaishan, so the house we rented has also been taken back, and now we have nowhere to go. .
I heard that Master Xuezheng was arrested. Is this true? "
County Magistrate
Song Qi was arrested?
Didn't Song Qi go to Fucheng yesterday with the case file?
Why didn’t he know when he was arrested?
However, it was normal for Song Qi to be caught for doing such an immoral thing.
After all, Xu Feng said that Hu Weiyue already knew that Song Qi was framing Zhou Huaishan. With Hu Weiyue's ability, it would not be difficult to find out Song Qi.
That was the Minister of the Ministry of War back then!
I can do without two brushes!
So, Song Qi was really arrested?
With some thought in his mind, the county magistrate grabbed the gavel and slapped it.
"You can also inquire about the important matters of the court! You'd better hope that you are innocent, otherwise."
The county magistrate did not say any more, but he snorted heavily.
The snort from his nostrils was more effective than ten threatening words from him.
Frightened, Wang Le fell to the ground.
He had been beaten and cried before coming here, and tears came out of his eyes. Then he blew a snot bubble, "Sir, I surrender."
County magistrate
As soon as Wang Le opened his mouth, Chen Guang and Gao He pushed him together without waiting for the county magistrate to react.
Wang Le was already scared, so he didn't care about his companions' reminders.
Blowing snot bubbles, he cried, "It was indeed us who framed Zhou Huaishan. It was the academician who forced us. My sister had a high fever and had no money to see a doctor. The academician promised to treat my sister, but asked me to do things for him."
Crackling, Wang Le fell upside down.
Chen Guang and Gao He looked as ugly as if they were smeared with manure.
When the county magistrate heard this, his heart surged.
Hey!
Zhou Huaishan is saved.
But, isn't this a bit mysterious?
Zhou Huaishan confessed his crime yesterday, and Song Qi planned to transfer the case to the government office last night.
The news of Song Qi's arrest came out today?
And the news came from the public rather than the official?
But who cares!
These three people confessed, and it didn't matter whether Song Qi was really arrested or not. After all, as long as they confessed, it was a fact that Song Qi would definitely be arrested.
"Come on, arrest him!"
The county magistrate slammed the gavel in excitement.
Originally, he just wanted to find out the news, but he was arrested?
Chen Guang and Gao He stared at Wang Le angrily.
Wang Le blew snot bubbles and was softly held up by the yamen runners.
"It's useless for you to stare at me. The academician has been arrested, and it's only a matter of time for us to be arrested. If we are arrested now, at least we still have a way to survive. Otherwise, where can we go?"
With what they did, they have no hope of taking the imperial examination.
They will definitely be expelled from the clan if they return to the village.
The family is poor and there are sick people. If they are expelled from the clan again, how can they survive?
