Chapter 170 Chen Jiusi: Who said that Mulan people can't be killed? (Subscribe)
"Bad guy, let this aunt go!"
With a crisp sound, the Mulan man who was committing the violence was stunned. He looked up and touched the hot steamed bun juice on his face!
Then I saw a little girl wearing red clothes and two buns on her head, and a boy about ten years old.
"Hey, what are you doing? Let this aunt go! You bad guy!"
"Bad guy?"
The Mulan man frowned and immediately climbed up from the woman, but the woman did not let him go. Instead, she was held down by two of his lackeys.
At this time, Mu Lanren looked at Ruirui, and a sick expression appeared on his face. This little girl is a little small, but she can still be played with.
And he has a very strong temper, which I like.
Thinking of this Mu Lan man waving his hand, his men reacted immediately and surrounded them. More than a dozen gray-clothed lackeys surrounded Ruirui and Sun Yong.
Sun Yong immediately felt something was wrong when he saw this, and then he pushed Ruirui and said, "Ruirui, run quickly, I'll stop them!"
"Ah, no, you go first, I, I'll stop them!"
Ruirui looked calm, she was not afraid of any bad guys, and she was doing good things. Her brother-in-law told her that as long as she was doing good things, she didn't have to be afraid, and her brother-in-law would protect her!
Humph, with my brother-in-law here, why would I be afraid of you?
Although Sun Yong was a child, he knew how brutal the Mulan people were. The people that should not be provoked the most in Mianshui County were the Mulan people, because if they were provoked, the Darughachi Mansion would intervene.
Part of the reason for the existence of the Darughachi Palace is to protect the noble rights of the local herders.
If the Mulan people were attacked, the consequence would be strong intervention from the Darughachi Palace.
Thinking of this, Sun Yong immediately said to Ruirui: "Quick, go find Uncle Hu."
That’s right, find Chen Xiaohu. At this time, only an adult can ensure your own safety.
Thinking of this, Ruirui wanted to run, but at this time she was blocked by two gray-clothed guards. Mu Lanren had a ferocious look on his face and slowly approached this side.
Sun Yong was shocked when he saw this, and he rushed towards a gray-clothed guard without hesitation. With a bang, he knocked the gray-clothed guard to the ground.
At this time, Sun Yong shouted: "Run!"
Ruirui turned around and tried to run, but at this moment, a gentle female voice came: "Hey, you are here, I was just looking for you, what are you doing?"
As he was speaking, Su Yunjin walked over.
"Sister, run!"
Although Su Yunrui was young, he knew that his sister should not be involved in this matter. After all, the bad guy specifically targeted his pretty sister, and Su Yunjin's beauty was not comparable to that of the young proprietress of the wine shop.
Su Yunjin didn't know what was going on. She just heard that the people of Mulan were very eccentric, but she only knew the details from hearsay. In addition, because of her identity as the lady of Baihu Hall, the people of Mulan could not bully her.
Therefore, she did not know how vicious the Mulan people were.
To sum up, I couldn't meet them in the village before, and later when I went to the city, I was protected too well by Chen Jie, so I had never seen what kind of beasts the Mulan people were.
But Mu Lanren saw Su Yunjin and couldn't take his eyes off her for a moment!
There is such a stunning beauty in the world.
In an instant, he felt that the wine shop owner was no longer attractive, and his eyes were fixed on Su Yunjin, unable to be taken away.
Today Su Yunjin wore a blue skirt, a hairpin on her head, and jingling rings and bracelets. There was a scholarly air between her brows, and the feeling of a lady from a noble family came across her. With Chen Jie's meticulous care, her face was also radiant, and she really had the charm of a mature woman.
It was something he had never seen before.
Mu Lanren's eyes widened. At this moment, he looked at his younger brothers beside him. The younger brothers beside him reacted instantly and quietly formed an encirclement.
At this time, Mulan took a handkerchief and wiped the steamed bun juice off his face and said, "Are you the sister of this girl?"
Su Yunjin heard this and looked at the Mulan man. Seeing him wiping the steamed bun soup off his face, he turned to look at Su Yunrui and asked, "Did you throw it?"
Su Yunjin didn't see that Mulanren had just bullied the owner of the liquor store, and thought that Su Yunrui was being naughty, so he quickly apologized, "My dear brother, my child is young and doesn't know much, I apologize to you on her behalf!"
Su Yunjin bowed gracefully and politely.
At this time, Mulanren came over directly, wiped the steamed bun juice off his face and said, "Haha, apology, is this the only way to say it with your mouth?"
After he finished speaking, his eyes were filled with lust as he looked Su Yunjin up and down. The beastly nature in his eyes could no longer be concealed.
He had drunk alcohol today and was in the mood for sex. How could he control himself when seeing such a beautiful woman?
He approached Su Yunjin step by step. Su Yunjin also noticed something was wrong and looked at him and asked, "You, what are you going to do?"
Mu Lanren said with an extremely aggressive look on his face: "Haha, what are you doing? Of course, I want to make up for the fact that she just interrupted my good deeds!"
After saying that, he rushed directly towards Su Yunjin, who was startled.
Ruirui and Sun Yong also shouted: "Sister (stepmother), be careful."
The Mu Lan man was really beastly and pounced directly at Su Yunjin.
Su Yunjin then realized that this guy was not a good person. Looking at the beast-like Mulan people, she was not afraid, but took a step back and quickly assumed a cross-clamp sheep-horse fighting posture.
【A little thought! 】
Snap, snap!
Su Yunjin directly used a set of tricks on this Mu Lanren. This was originally the secret weapon of the former housekeeper Yu Biao, which was passed down from Emei.
Chen Jie has been teaching Su Yunjin to practice this set of self-defense kung fu, and with the help of the Yangchun Jue breathing method, Su Yunjin has also practiced this set of kung fu quite well.
In addition, Chen Jie also specifically consulted Master Jingyin of Jixiang Temple. She was an abandoned disciple of Emei and was born in Emei. She had the most authentic understanding of small thoughts.
Chen Jie upgraded this set of martial arts, and then Su Yunjin took Chen Jie's Tai Sui Pill, and his strength has now reached the Liujin realm level.
It's just that she doesn't want to fight, so few people know that she knows martial arts.
But she is no longer the fragile young lady she used to be.
At this time, Su Yunjin made a move, and with three palm strikes, he knocked the Mu Lan man to the ground.
Seeing this scene, everyone around widened their eyes. No one would have thought that such a weak and delicate girl could have such powerful strength. It was truly amazing.
Even Ruirui and Sun Yong's eyes widened. When did this sister (stepmother) become so powerful? Why had they never seen their sister practice martial arts before?
Of course they couldn't see it, because Su Yunjin was also practicing the art of sex, which was done by secretly standing in a stance at night. Chen Jie would discuss martial arts with him naked, and the beauty of it was not something that could be told to outsiders!
However, Su Yunjin's move immediately alarmed all the gray-clad guards, and they immediately surrounded him. Someone came forward to support the Mulan man who had been knocked to the ground and said, "Master Tara, are you okay?"
After the herder named Tara was helped up, he only felt a little stuffy in his chest, but it was not serious, and Su Yunjin did not use any harsh force on him.
This is also very normal. Our young lady is kind-hearted. Even so, she cannot beat someone to a disability.
But Tara was not a grateful person. After being knocked to the ground, an angry expression appeared on her face. She pointed at the gray-clothed guard in front of her and said, "What are you standing there for? Come on, capture this girl for me. I want to see if she is as good in bed as this."
"I'm going to let her know what regret is. I'm going to use the most disgusting methods on her. Go ahead, catch her!"
As Tara said this, she pointed directly at Su Yunjin, who immediately protected Ruirui and Sun Yong behind him.
The gray-clad guards looked at each other, and someone recognized the standard on Ruirui and Sun Yong's clothes and said, "Hey, really, they are from the White Tiger Hall."
After hearing this, a guard said, "What's wrong with the White Tiger Hall? It's just a dog raised by our Mulan people. If you beat Lord Tara today, you must pay the price!"
"on!"
After that, a group of gray-clad guards rushed up, but at this moment, there was a sudden roar: "Who dares to touch my sister-in-law!"
The next moment, with a snap, a man jumped over from a distance, and then with a click, he broke the neck of a man in gray.
If it’s not Xiaohu, then who else could it be?
Xiaohu doesn’t care whether you are from Mulan or who you are, if you dare to touch my sister-in-law, you are seeking death.
Xiaohu attacked ruthlessly and soon injured most of the gray-clothed guards. You should know that among these gray-clothed guards, at most two were at the Liujin realm, and there was not even the Tiegu realm, while Xiaohu was at the Huajin realm. It was easy and pleasant for a Huajin master to beat a Liujin realm guard.
Xiaohu was so excited about killing that he scared the men in gray so much that they quickly retreated. They just wanted to have a better life and be dogs for the Mulan people, but they didn't want to risk their lives!
So after Xiaohu killed five of them, they were all scared.
Xiaohu didn't care about all this. With his eyes red with anger, he aimed directly at the herdsman Tara. You want to bully my sister-in-law, right? Die!
Xiaohu slapped Tara directly, and this slap was obviously intended to kill her.
What Mulan people, a noble race, are nothing. Anyone who dares to set his sights on my sister-in-law shall die!
At this time, Tara saw a ruthless man suddenly rushing up, killing two people without saying anything. He was so scared that his legs became numb. He wanted to hide quickly, but Xiaohu's energy was so strong that he couldn't hide.
Then he saw the palm coming straight towards his chest.
"How dare you, untouchable!"
Tara's eyes were bloodshot, he screamed, his face turned pale, but at this moment, a figure suddenly rushed over and stood in front of Tara.
【Bone-splitting hand】
clap clap...
The man exchanged palm strikes with Xiaohu, and then Xiaohu stepped back two steps before standing still. Just as he was about to attack again, he suddenly stopped, because the person who came to kill him was none other than Wu Hong!
Brother Hong? ! !
Xiaohu's eyes narrowed slightly. He didn't expect Wu Hong to come and stop him.
They are all good brothers.
Wu Hong frowned and said, "Who dares to cause trouble here? Why don't you leave immediately?"
Chen Xiaohu looked at Wu Hong with a dark face when he heard that. He had never thought that Wu Hong would be a scum who betrayed the nation, but today he felt that Wu Hong was a lackey.
"Why would you protect such a scumbag?"
Xiaohu pointed at Tara who was hiding behind Wu Hong with a dark face.
Wu Hong said: "Today is the temple fair, and the government office has received an order to protect the place. Chen Xiaohu, it's almost done, you can leave now."
Xiao Hu said, "Wu Hong, are you really going to stop me for such a scumbag?"
Wu Hong said: "This is Mulanren."
Xiao Hu said: "I don't care who he is, if he wants to die, I will help him!"
Hearing this, Wu Hong frowned. He stopped Chen Xiaohu because the Mulan people could not be harmed. Mulan people, what were they? They were the nobles of Mianshui County. If anything happened to any Mulan person, it would alarm the Darughachi Mansion, and then things would become complicated.
Even though Xiaohu is a master of Hua Jin, he cannot escape if the Darughachi Mansion wants to arrest him.
But as long as the Mulan people are not harmed and a few gray-clothed lackeys are killed, no one will care, especially since Xiaohu is from the White Tiger Hall and is Chen Jie's subordinate, and the Darughachi Mansion will not go too far.
But if Tara died today, things would become complicated.
I'm afraid Chen Jiusi would not dare to kill the Mulan people under the pressure from the Darughachi Mansion!
Therefore Wu Hong took action to stop it.
Xiao Hu was furious at this time, and looked at Wu Hong and said: "Today I must seek justice for my sister-in-law. Either he apologizes today, or I kill him!"
Xiaohu said angrily. Su Yunjin also reacted at this time and said to Xiaohu: "Huzi, it's enough."
Xiao Hu said, "Sister-in-law, Brother Jiu Si asked me to take good care of you. If he didn't, that's my fault. He must give an explanation today."
"It's ok, Huzi, he, he is from Mulan."
"If Mulan has more hammers, I will make him admit his mistake."
Xiaohu stepped forward and said, "Wu Hong, get out of my way."
Seeing this, Wu Hong said with a dark face: "Chen Xiaohu, don't cause trouble."
clap clap...
After another fight, Wu Hong once again pushed Chen Xiaohu back. Chen Xiaohu was furious and said, "Wu Hong, do you really want to be a dog for this Mulan man?"
Tara also came back to her senses from the shock just now. Seeing that Wu Hong was much more powerful than Chen Xiaohu, and was also a man from the government, she suddenly became arrogant.
"You, the people from the government, listen carefully. As a noble of Mulan, I order you to arrest this lunatic and that young lady. Don't worry, I know your county magistrate Tang Wannian. I will ask him to promote you when I go back!"
"Haha, it's all right this time, Wu Hong. Your master asked you to help catch someone. Hurry up and capture me and my sister-in-law to report to your master. I'm really ashamed for Master Bai. How could he have a grandson like you!"
Xiaohu was really angry and scolded Wu Hong at this time.
Wu Hong said nothing, but just said: "Xiao Hu, no matter what you say today, I will accept it, but you can't hurt him today!"
"You're so good!"
Xiao Hu laughed angrily and said, "I must kill him today!"
As he spoke, Xiaohu directly slapped out two water-controlling palms, and Wu Hong blocked them with his hands, and the bone-breaking hand was only used for defense.
Just when the two were fighting, a voice suddenly rang out: "Two grown men are fussy, if you don't let me kill you, I'll do it."
brush!
Suddenly, there was a flash of sword light, followed by a figure passing directly in front of Tara, and disappeared on the spot the next moment. Seeing this scene, Wu Hong immediately turned his head.
Then Tara's eyes were wide open, with an expression that looked like he didn't know what was going on. Then his neck began to bleed, and he fell to the ground with a bang, deader than dead.
Seal the throat with one sword!
Wu Hong was furious when he saw this: "Stop!"
He chased after them, leaving Xiaohu behind. When Xiaohu saw this scene, especially Tara lying on the ground, his face darkened and he spat, "Bah, you got it for free!"
The people around were shocked when they saw this: "Ah~ Someone is dead!"
A roar was heard, followed by countless people fleeing in panic. Xiao Hu looked at Su Yunjin at this time, and Su Yunjin said, "Let's go too."
After hearing this, Xiaohu said, "Well, sister-in-law, please."
When the gray-clad guards saw that their master was dead and Xiaohu and the others were about to leave, they immediately wanted to stop them, but when Xiaohu turned around and gave them a look, they all became scared and didn't dare to say a word.
Xiaohu snorted coldly and turned away.
……
By the time Chen Jie found them, it was already evening. When Chen Jie came out, he heard people talking about this incident.
He hurried back and asked his wife if she was okay. Su Yunjin said, "My husband, I'm fine. It's just that a Mulan man died today. I'm afraid it will cause trouble for you."
After hearing this, Chen Jie said, "It's okay, as long as my wife is okay, as for the rest, my husband will find a way."
At this time, Xiaohu also understood after Su Yunjin's explanation that he had done something wrong today.
In fact, he was not very afraid of killing a Mulan man. Maybe it was because of ignorance and fearlessness, or maybe it was because of his great skills and courage. He used his Hua Jin, and the worst that could happen was that he could escape. How could he have no chance of survival?
But Su Yunjin said: This may affect my husband's plan.
Xiaohu immediately knew that he was wrong. It didn't matter what happened to him, but it would be a bad idea if it affected Jiu Sige's grand plan. His loyalty to Chen Jie surpassed that to himself.
In fact, it is understandable that Xiaohu was forced to be promoted step by step by Chen Jie. Chen Xiaohu felt that he could never repay his father for his kindness and brotherhood in this life. In addition, his father's advice also told Chen Xiaohu subtly that he must never do anything to let down his brother Jiu Si.
If one day Chen Jie is really abandoned by his friends and relatives, there may be only two people who will never really leave him, one is his wife, and the other is Chen Xiaohu.
This is the most loyal confidant.
Xiao Hu apologized to Chen Jie, but Chen Jie did not blame him for causing trouble for him. He just smiled and said, "It's okay. He's just a Mulan person. It's not a big deal."
"But Huzi, you should change your temper. When you see Brother Hong again, apologize to him."
Chen Xiaohu said: "Well, I understand."
Xiaohu said humbly. Chen Jie looked at Xiaohu and said, "Okay, don't be so sad. By the way, if there are people causing trouble at the government office these two days, don't get into conflict with them. Do you hear me?"
Xiaohu looked at Chen Jie and said, "Brother Jiusi, what do you mean?"
Chen Jie said: "A Mulan man died, so the matter cannot be let go like this, but it doesn't matter. I am very useful to Darughachi now. At most, he can lift me up high and put me down gently."
"Just remember this, don't be impulsive in any matter. If the government comes to arrest you, don't resist. I will take care of the rest."
Chen Jie looked at Chen Xiaohu, and Xiaohu said, "Well, I understand."
Chen Jie nodded and said, "Let's go and have a meal. We've been busy all night and haven't had anything hot to eat yet."
After saying this, the two went to eat. Chen Jie approved of Xiao Hu's approach. As for the trouble he brought to him, Chen Jie didn't care too much. He had indeed gone too far recently. Darughachi probably had opinions on many things. This time, he probably took this opportunity to give him a lesson.
This is a chance for Chen Jie to give the Darughaci Palace an opportunity to use it as leverage to criticize him. If he admits his mistake and expresses his obedience to Darughaci's arrangements, then everything will be fine.
And this time it wasn’t Xiaohu who killed the Mulan people, so there was no problem at all.
So he wasn't too worried.
Chen Jie and Xiaohu had a sumptuous dinner and chatted about some things in the hall. By the way, they mentioned Uncle Erba. Uncle Erba is now in better health. Uncle Erba was not very old, not even forty years old. The reason why he looked old was because of the burden of life.
Now he has no pressure in life at all. Xiaohu's monthly salary in Baihu Hall is as high as one hundred taels, which is enough to buy a small house in the city.
In addition, there was some gray income, which Chen Jie gave to him intentionally, but Xiaohu, who didn't know whether he was confused or what, refused to take a penny and gave all the money to Chen Jie, and asked Chen Jie to fill in some purchasing loopholes.
Doesn’t Chen Jie know that there are some loopholes in this regard?
He knew it, and the reason he didn't patch it up was to leave a hole on purpose so that the people below could make some money.
It's a pity that Xiaohu is a dullard, but Chen Jie still often rewards Xiaohu.
He was also prepared to give Uncle Erba and his people a job where they could enjoy a comfortable life, but Uncle Erba was reluctant to leave his hometown and was unwilling to leave Xiantao Village. Chen Jie was helpless and could only let it go.
Chen Jie was grateful to his uncle Erba's family. If it hadn't been for their care, life would have been very difficult for him and Yun Jin. Chen Jie was a grateful person, and he would remember anyone who had helped him.
After the meal, the two returned to their respective residences and remained silent all night.
The next day, Chen Jie had just woken up and was washing his face with Cui Ju's help when he saw Si Xi rushing in, anxiously saying, "Master, Master, something terrible has happened, something terrible has happened!"
Chen Jie washed his face, handed the towel to Cui Ju, looked at Si Xi and said, "What's wrong with that?"
Si Xi said, "Tiger, Lord Tiger, was taken away from the government gate."
"Oh?"
Chen Jie raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect the government to do things so quickly. He looked at Si Xi and asked, "Oh, who brought it?"
Si Xi said, "Captain Wu Hong."
Chen Jie nodded and said, "Oh, I see. By the way, Xiaohu didn't resist, did he?"
"No, Lord Tiger didn't resist."
Chen Jie nodded, and then said: "Si Xi, prepare some good gifts and horses, I want to go to the Darughachi Mansion."
Si Xi heard this and said, "Sir, it was Tiger Lord who was captured by the government. Shall we go to the Darughachi Mansion?"
Chen Jie laughed and said, "Haha, if Darughachi doesn't agree, the government will dare to arrest people from the White Tiger Hall. Don't worry, it's okay."
Chen explained, and then said to Cui Ju beside him: "Tell Madam that I will not have breakfast in the mansion today."
After hearing this, Si Xi said, "Well, I'll go get ready."
Chen Jie said: "Yeah."
Si Xi turned around and left, confused. His own hall master didn't seem to be in a hurry. Lord Hu was his best brother.
Si Xi left with doubts.
Meanwhile, Xiao Hu was on the road with handcuffs on his hands, and Wu Hong was beside him. Wu Hong whispered, "When we get to the court, don't say anything rude. I will help you."
Hearing this, Xiao Hu looked at Wu Hong and said, "Brother Hong, I'm sorry about what happened yesterday. Brother Jiu Si scolded me yesterday, and I was wrong."
Wu Hong was stunned, then patted Xiaohu on the shoulder and said, "Brothers don't talk about these things."
Xiaohu said: "Well, I'll listen to Brother Hong."
Wu Hong nodded and took Xiaohu to the court.
Soon the group arrived at the court. It was noisy at that time. A group of people gathered in the court, both men and women. Among them were many wearing gray clothes, which were usually only worn by the servants of the Mulan family.
A group of people gathered in the court, most of them were standing, only two were kneeling on the ground.
The two people who were kneeling there and trembling were none other than the couple from the liquor store who were bullied yesterday.
Wu Hong brought Xiaohu in. As soon as they entered the hall, the group of people in gray clothes glared at Xiaohu fiercely. Xiaohu didn't care. He glanced at them and stood aside. At this time, Wu Hong stepped forward and clasped his fists and said, "Sir, the prisoner Chen Xiaohu has been brought here."
At this time, sitting behind the desk in the hall was the county magistrate, Tang Wannian. Hearing this, he slammed the gavel and said, "Very good, all the prisoners have arrived. Madam, can we open the court?"
Tang Wannian looked at a woman surrounded by gray-clad guards.
Chen Xiaohu also noticed this woman at this time. He saw that this woman was dressed elegantly and luxuriously, but also very vulgarly. She actually had several large gold rings on her hands and a fine emerald plate on her thumb.
The most important thing is that she was actually sitting in the hall, on an equal footing with Tang Wannian.
You have to know that in ancient times, no one could sit in the court except officials.
However, the exception is the Mulan people, who can sit down.
This is the privilege that the herders have over the law.
The woman was sitting on a chair. There were several corpses wrapped in straw mats on the ground. They were the people killed by Chen Xiaohu yesterday.
The legal advisor had already opened the official document and was ready to take notes. There were also three shifts of yamen runners, including fast and strong ones, standing by his side. The scene was quite grand.
Wu Hong stood in his position as the head of the fast squad.
Tang Wannian looked at the woman at this time. The woman glanced at Chen Xiaohu and said, "This man is so bold. He dared not to kneel down and kowtow to the magistrate of our dynasty. He is so arrogant!"
After hearing this, Tang Wannian frowned and looked at Chen Xiaohu.
Snapped!
The gavel slammed and he was about to speak when Wu Hong whispered, "Sir, this person is from the White Tiger Hall."
Tang Wannian said, "So what? There are seven or eight hundred people in the White Tiger Hall. If everyone can avoid kneeling when they see me, where is my authority?"
After hearing this, Wu Hong added: "Its cultivation of transformation strength."
"Transformation? Transformation power?"
Tang Wannian was shocked. He could care less about other things, but he must care about Hua Jin. What is Hua Jin? That is at the level of the Thirteen Guardians, almost on par with him.
Wu Hong said: "He should have received Chen Jiusi's instructions in advance, and he did not resist when he was arrested. Otherwise, it would be difficult to catch him."
"Besides, the iron chain on his hand may not be able to tie him up. My Lord, please think twice!"
After hearing this, Tang Wannian fell silent. He ignored the part of asking Chen Xiaohu to kneel down, and instead slammed the gavel again and said, "Open the court!"
"Mighty and powerful!"
The three shifts of yamen runners shouted in a show of authority, and the atmosphere immediately became tense. Tang Wannian slammed the gavel again, and the runners stopped shouting in a show of authority.
"Who is this person in the hall? What grievances have you suffered? Tell me quickly!"
The formal words are still simple.
After hearing this, the lady sitting on the chair did not intend to stand up. She was the plaintiff, but she was not prepared to tell her story to the Han official who was the servant of the Mulan people. He was not worthy of it.
At this time, the woman waved her hand, and a man who looked like a housekeeper came out and said, "Your Excellency, on behalf of the noble Lord Tara's legal wife, I sue the Han Chinese Chen Xiaohu for killing my master. I ask the county magistrate to investigate the matter and sentence him to death to comfort my master's spirit in heaven."
After hearing this, Tang Wannian was stunned, turned to look at Chen Xiaohu and said, "Chen Xiaohu, people accuse you of killing the herder Tara, do you admit it?"
"That's absolutely not the case!"
Chen Xiaohu answered simply, then looked at the woman and said, "What nonsense!"
"You, you lowly person, you still refuse to admit it. Look, there are so many witnesses here, and you still dare to deny it!"
The woman sitting on the chair said angrily, and at this time the housekeeper beside her said: "Madam, I'll do it."
The woman said, "Come here."
The housekeeper looked at Chen Xiaohu and asked, "Chen Xiaohu, did you go to the East City Temple Fair yesterday?"
Chen Xiaohu said: "I went."
"You went alone?"
Chen Xiaohu said: "Not only me, our hall master, our hall master's wife, and many disciples went."
"Okay, County Magistrate, you must have heard it clearly. The matter is very clear. Yesterday, Chen Xiaohu and his group went to East City and drank in the wine shop of this young couple. During the trip, Chen Xiaohu became malicious and wanted to molest the young couple. He beat the man and pinned the woman to the ground!"
"At this time, our Lord Tara saw it and led people to stop it. Who would have thought that he would suddenly attack and injure people, killing many of my guards. Lord Tara was almost killed by him. Fortunately, Wu Hong arrived in time and stopped it all."
"But I didn't expect that they had someone hiding in secret, that is Chen Jiusi, the head of the White Tiger Hall. He secretly saw the opportunity and killed my master with a sword. So the murderer is not only him, Chen Xiaohu, but also Chen Jiusi of the White Tiger Hall!"
boom!
After hearing this, everyone present looked at the butler who was confusing right and wrong.
Chen Xiaohu was even more furious: "You are talking nonsense. He is just a Mulan man. Why does our hall master need to take action? You are slandering him."
The people around were looking at the housekeeper Mu Lan in surprise. He was so bold that he actually wanted to drag Chen Jiusi into the water. Could Chen Jiusi be dragged into the water so easily?
Aren’t these Mulan people too arrogant?
At this time, on the other hand, Chen Jie had already arrived at the Darughachi Mansion with valuable gifts, and Qimuge received Chen Jie.
"Chimuge Commander"
Chen Jie bowed and said, "Is your Excellency here?"
Qimuge looked at Chen Jie and said, "Jiu Si, you've been making quite a fuss lately?"
Chen Jie heard this and said, "Shouldn't I come here to explain this to you, sir?"
Chen Jie gave the gifts to the servants of Darughachi's mansion. Qimuge took Chen Jie to the back garden where Yelu was fishing.
Chen Jie came over, clasped his fists and said, "Lord Yelu."
Yelu didn't say anything, but pointed at the lake and said, "Fishing for a while?"
Chen Jie said: "Well, thank you, sir."
Chen Jie threw the hook into the lake and watched the float. Yelu beside him asked, "Is it because of the matter at the government office?"
Chen Jie immediately clasped his fists and said, "It's Lord Yelu."
Yelu said: "I can't help you with this matter. Killing our Mulan people is a challenge to the national prestige of Daqian. No one can save your men."
Chen Jie heard this and said, "Yes, I know he is guilty of a serious crime, but this matter is really a misunderstanding. The noble lady Mulan was not killed by my brother. Please investigate clearly, sir."
Yelu said: "But it was obviously you guys who killed him at that time."
"Didn't Tara have a grudge against your White Tiger Hall at that time? No matter how you talk about this matter, your White Tiger Hall cannot escape responsibility."
"Yes Yes."
The adults are right.
Chen Jie paused here and said, "But sir, this matter is also good for you."
"benefit?"
Yelu raised his eyebrows and said, "If you kill my Mulan people, will it be good for me?"
Chen Jie said, "Sir, Mulan people are Mulan people, and you are your lord. Sir, you don't have to hide it from me. I know that you are from the Yelu family. The Yelu family advocates sinicization, which is contrary to the Prime Minister Bayan of this dynasty. With your talent, you are more than qualified to be a darughachi of a prefecture. Unfortunately, you were implicated and entered our Mianshui County."
"After entering Mianshui County, our local Mulan people have been very disrespectful to you, and even think that you are not in the right position. What's worse, some even speak wildly to you. Over the years, these Mulan people have never been respectful to you."
"They never respected you, sir, but united with the local natives. Old Arutai even sang against you many times."
"Otherwise, the Lord would not have placed so much importance on our Han gang instead of using the local Mulan forces."
"Your Excellency, I am right."
Upon hearing this, Yelu looked at Chen Jiusi and said, "This is not a secret, you are right."
Chen Jie said: "Therefore, this incident is definitely a good thing for you. The death of a Mulan person who did not support you can serve as a warning to the local Mulan people and tell them that in Mianshui County, it is you, the Darughachi, who has the final say."
"They shouldn't gather around old Alutai and fight against adults, otherwise adults won't help them."
"On the contrary, if adults help them, they will think that it is their duty to help them, and will not regard the help of adults as a favor. On the contrary, they will think that it is normal for adults to do so, and that adults are afraid of them, so they must win them over."
"So I don't think your Excellency can help them this time."
"And if you don't help them, it will show your importance. Don't they like old Alutai? Then let old Alutai avenge them."
"If old Alutai cannot avenge himself, then my lord, you can establish your prestige and thereby gain the support of the Mulan people in Mianshui County."
"So, you can take advantage of this to make a profit."
"I have received your kindness, and I will certainly go through fire and water for you, without hesitation!"
Chen Jie started to attack Darughachi.
Yelu listened to this and his eyes narrowed slightly: "For me? Go through fire and water without hesitation?"
"That's right. In fact, I was supported by you. You are my root. I should go through fire and water for you. And my brother is my arm. So he is also your man. Don't you agree?"
Yelu heard this, looked at Chen Jie and said, "You are such a clever talker, but what you said is not without reason."
Chen Jie said, "Also, sir, I have indeed gone too far recently. I promise you that from now on, as long as Nan Batian doesn't deliberately cause trouble for me, I will never cause trouble for him. I will make sure that when the inspector comes to Mianshui, he will see a harmonious Mianshui County."
Yelu heard this and raised the corners of his mouth and said, "Okay, okay, I said Jiusi knows how to advance and retreat. This matter obviously has nothing to do with the White Tiger Hall. Qimuge, you and Jiusi go to the government office and solve the matter. By the way, at noon, Jiusi, come back. I have invited Nan Batian and Liu Laoguai to dinner at my mansion. You can come too."
"Yes."
After hearing this, Chen Jie immediately agreed, and followed Qimuge who was standing beside him and said, "Let's go, brother Jiusi. The master has been thinking about you for a long time. Come with me to get your brother out."
As Qimuge was speaking, Chen Jie said, "Thank you, Commander."
The two men took their leave. Yelu looked at the water and grabbed a handful of fish food and threw it down. This was just like raising fish. If they were hungry, he would feed them a handful of food. If they were full, he would tap them.
Only in this way can you be obedient.
At this time, Chen Jie followed Qimugege out, thinking in his heart, as expected, Yelu wanted to use this incident to warn him, and if he pretended to be the grandson today, everything would be solved.
Therefore, to deal with Yelu, you have to understand his temper. Once you understand it, you can control him.
……
Back inside the yamen, Chen Xiaohu was furious. These bastards were so bold that they even dared to wrongly accuse his brother Jiu Si. He wished he could kill them.
However, when he saw the look Wu Hong gave him, Chen Xiaohu suppressed the violent thoughts in his heart.
Tang Wannian was also surprised. These Mulan people were really crazy. They even wanted to frame Chen Jiusi. Was Chen Jiusi an ordinary person?
Thinking of this, Tang Wannian said, "Ahem, you just said that Tara was killed by Chen Jiusi in order to save the young couple in the wine shop? Do you have any evidence?"
As soon as these words came out, the sitting woman pointed at the kneeling young couple and said, "They are the evidence. Tell me, was it this Chen Xiaohu who wanted to molest you, and was my husband killed by Chen Jiusi in order to save you?"
After hearing this, the young couple on the ground trembled all over, remembering the brutality of the Mulan people. Their children and parents were in the hands of these Mulan people.
So they said, "No, that's right, that's it!"
"you!"
After hearing what the young couple said, Xiaohu became furious. If I hadn't helped you yesterday, I wouldn't have gotten into all this trouble. Now you are actually framing me. Where is your conscience?
The young couple were so humbled by Xiaohu's yelling that they couldn't say a word. They thought they were beasts for repaying kindness with enmity. But if they didn't do what these Mulan people said, their family would be finished. So, I'm sorry, you are a good person!
Xiaohu scolded the two of them, but it was of no use.
At this time, the woman who was sitting stood up and said, "County Magistrate Tang, the situation is now clear. The murderers are Chen Xiaohu and Chen Jiusi. Please give the order to arrest them!"
Tang Wannian was embarrassed when he heard this. Who should he arrest? Chen Jiusi?
Are you kidding me? Who can take him?
Just when Tang Wannian was hesitating, a voice suddenly came from outside: "Haha, there is no need for Master Tang to do anything, Chen is here by himself. I want to see who can convict me, Chen Jiusi, today!"
After saying that, a man strode in from outside the yamen!
