Chapter 90: God wants to destroy
Chapter 90 Heaven wants to destroy it
County magistrate Li immediately became energetic, slapped the gavel heavily, and said with a serious face: "Successful!"
"Mighty..." The yamen servants standing on both sides quickly swiped the long wooden sticks in their hands, and the sound of the wooden sticks hitting the ground was dense and loud, which made people feel numb.
Ordinary people are already afraid of the government. Before the trial started, they were sacked by the government for a while, and they started to feel guilty.
A group of melon-eating people who were still buzzing and discussing endlessly fell silent. Everyone stared nervously at the hall, and suddenly they didn't dare to take a breath, always feeling that if they didn't pay attention, the yamen servant would run over and beat them with a board.
Amidst the low voices of the yamen servants, a young man dressed in black clothes held a long knife in one hand and escorted a middle-aged man who was described as wretched into the lobby with the other.
The middle-aged man's hands were cut behind his back, and his wrists were tied with a thick rope.
The young man pushed with his hand, and the middle-aged man knelt down on the ground with his knees limp.
"My lord, save me (me)!"
The middle-aged man opened his mouth, and everyone realized that his front teeth had fallen out at some point, and he didn't shut his mouth when he spoke.
This middle-aged man is Zhao Butou.
County magistrate Li saw Zhao Butou's miserable appearance, and his scalp went numb with fright.
County magistrate Li glanced at the boy in black clothes who looked like a demon with mixed emotions, and forced himself to be calm and said: "Who is in the hall, please report your name!"
"Seven kills, the guards of the Pei residence." The young man in Xuanyi said cleanly with a cold face.
There are many people in this world who are always cold-faced, and there are not many people who are as cold as young people who seem to want to kill.
County magistrate Li was inexplicably apprehensive, but he still forcibly put on an official airs and yelled, "Why don't you kneel when you see me?!"
Qi Sha ignored him, but turned to look at Pei Yi who was sitting beside her.
Looking at Qi Sha's eyes, County Magistrate Li understood that the guard was asking the third master of the Pei family for advice.
County magistrate Li suddenly felt angry.
Even the guards of noble families should kneel down when they arrive at the court, right?
Is it necessary to consult the master for this kind of matter?
Does this still put him in the eyes of the majestic county magistrate?
County Magistrate Li's bureaucratic superior mentality reappeared.
If he met other noble children, County Magistrate Li would not dare to be so arrogant.
But he had long believed that Pei Yi was a cowardly son of a family who was strong on the outside but on the inside, and his heart suddenly became rampant.
"Seven kills, kneel down quickly!" County Magistrate Li slapped the gavel loudly.
Qisha stood up straight, like a pine tree standing on a cliff.
He stood under the stage and looked coldly at County Magistrate Li who was sitting on the stage—it was obviously supposed to be from the angle of looking up, but for some reason, there was an aura of contempt for the other party.
County magistrate Li felt a strong sense of oppression inexplicably.
He became more and more angry.
Seeing that a mere guard in Pei's mansion dared not kneel to the county magistrate, Li County magistrate coldly ordered to the yamen servant: "Make him kneel!"
Pei Yi curled her lower lip coldly.
If it is heaven that wants to destroy it, it must first make it crazy.
A group of people around the entrance of the lobby saw this situation and couldn't help talking in a low voice.
"Pei Yi's face is too arrogant." Scholar A complained contemptuously.
"As Brother Liu said, the Seven Kills is not a cheap way to save money, and it will definitely make the magistrate angry." Scholar B gloated, "Just wait and see, Pei Yi is going to challenge the magistrate soon."
"Hmph, I'm really over my own strength." Scholar C sneered and said with a contemptuous smile, "I really don't know where Pei Yi's face came from. Let's make a bet that we will be the first in the class in the mock exam, but he dares to be the first in the county government office." Indulge in nonsense."
"Don't worry, idiots like this don't have a good end." Scholar Ding mocked, "I thought about seeing Pei Yi get out of the academy. But looking at the current posture, it is estimated that Pei Yi will be thrown into prison directly. At that time, 80% will not even have the chance to take the mock exam, so this bet cannot be fulfilled."
"Hmph, does Pei Yi still want to break the bet in this way?" Scholar Mu immediately made an excuse and sarcastically said, "If you don't have the ability to take the mock exam, then it's just a zero score, and it's still a failure of the bet. Besides, he They are about to go to jail, how can the academy keep a student who is in prison?"
Everyone you say to each other, the more you talk, the happier you feel in your heart, as if you have seen the inevitable future of Pei Yi's imminent death.
In the lobby, a few yamen servants were ordered by the county magistrate, and walked towards Qisha with a board.
Qisha's gaze was cold, and he suddenly drew his sword out of its sheath.
The blade is extremely sharp, and the cold light is flowing on the tip of the blade, which makes people feel flustered.
County magistrate Li turned pale in shock, and instinctively shrank back in fright.
"Protect the magistrate!" The master who was standing aside hurriedly yelled.
Several yamen servants immediately ran to the county magistrate with long knives to protect them.
The scene was instantly tense.
The melon-eaters surrounding the entrance of the lobby were terrified.
Scholars, you look at me, I look at me, you are all scared, shocked and excited.
Very good!
Pei Sanlang dared to make trouble like this, the game is definitely over!
In the lobby, Pei Yi saw that both sides were about to start a fight, so she leisurely said: "Seven kills, put away the knife." Originally, their Pei residence had taken charge of this matter, but if it was between the government office and the officers and soldiers If you do it, they will ignore it.
Qi Sha heard his third master speak, and then put the knife back into the scabbard.
The surrounding yamen servants all breathed a sigh of relief, secretly thinking that the guard named Qisha was not easy to mess with at first glance, and if they fought, they might not be enough to fight.
County magistrate Li heard that Pei Yi restrained the seven kills, and he suddenly gained confidence in his heart, and tremblingly said: "Seven kills, don't kneel down yet!"
Pei Yi frowned slightly, and reminded impatiently: "Master Li, is this case still going to trial? Are you planning to waste this day on my guards?"
County Magistrate Li's expression froze, and only then did he realize that Pei Sanlang, a dude, was unwilling to let the seven-kill guards kneel down.
County magistrate Li couldn't help but look at Qi Sha a few more times.
Leaving aside Qi Sha's intimidating aura, this man is indeed extremely good-looking.
I heard that the third master of the Pei family likes masculinity, and there are many faces in the house.
Now Mr. Pei defends Qisha everywhere, and Qisha is also one of Mr. Pei's faces.
County magistrate Li thought of this, and suddenly felt enlightened.
He didn't worry about whether Qi Sha would kneel or not, and finally got to the point: "Qi Sha, what are you suing?"
When the scholars at the entrance of the lobby saw this development trend, they felt worse than eating flies.
Did you make a mistake?
Qisha disobeyed the county magistrate so much, but the county magistrate just let it go?
