Chapter five hundred and seventy-ninth: news of Ning Baoer(2/3)
"This explanation can barely make sense, but why did Sun Wukong and Lin Pingzhi escape without successfully competing with each other? How did you catch them?" Dong Jianhui asked.
"Lin Pingzhi was so fascinated that he was depressed by a man in black on his shoulder and was about to take him away. He was discovered by someone other than mine. In addition, Sun Wukong was thrown outside the prison and was found after dawn. However, both of them were unconscious at the time. The man in black had a high cultivation level. We were no match for him, so he ran away!" Liu Shun said ashamed.
"So, are you sure Lin Pingzhi should escape from prison with his own relationship?" Dong Jianhui asked.
"Yes, the man in black obviously came to save Lin Pingzhi, but in order to confuse the public, he deliberately rescued Sun Wukong and allowed us to catch him. But unexpectedly, I temporarily added an extra patrol team to the prison, and happened to meet the man in black who wanted to take Lin Pingzhi away. The man in black was unable to escape with one person, so he left Lin Pingzhi and escaped by himself." Liu Shun described carefully.
"Has the man in black caught it?" Dong Jianhui asked.
Liu Shun replied ashamedly: "The officials are ashamed, because it was night and there were other prisoners in the prison. In order to prevent other prisoners from running away in the chaos, there were not enough staff, so he escaped."
“Is there any clue?”
"No, but I think this man in black must be related to the Ouyang family, so the officials have sent people to keep an eye on the people from the Ouyang family, hoping to find useful clues." Liu Shundao.
"Are you monitoring the people of the Ouyang family?" Dong Jianhui asked in surprise.
"Yes, since the Ouyang family entered Mengge City, we have arranged for people to pay attention." Liu Shun's eyes flashed with a hint of joy, and finally got in touch. Otherwise, he really didn't know how to send messages to Dong Jianhui. The people who delivered them directly to the door might not believe it, and they would also suspect that they had ulterior motives. This would be much better if they took the initiative to ask.
"Oh, what did Ouyang family do when they come to Mengge City? Do you know?" Dong Jianhui's eyes were dark in Mengge City. Although there was an imperial guard, he had been used in prison by him now, and the news was no better than a local like Liu Shun.
"The officials only know one or two." Liu Shun said modestly.
"Let me tell me?" Dong Jianhui ordered.
"This..." Liu Shun hesitated for a moment.
"What, is Director Liu in any way difficult?" Dong Jianhui's voice couldn't help but regained.
"Oh, no, the official is afraid that his personal impression will impress Lord Dong's judgment." Liu Shun said hurriedly.
"Director Liu doesn't have to worry about this. This official has been ups and downs in his official career for decades, and there are still judgments on right and wrong." Dong Jianhui said.
"Then please forgive me for being arrogant." Liu Shun said in a straight voice, "According to the rewards of his subordinates, a young man named Ouyang Yu went to the temporary place where the criminals of Sun Wukong's wife and servants in this case were temporarily settled. I don't know what they said, but when Ouyang Yu came out, his face seemed not very good. The official guessed that things might not go smoothly!"
"Oh, are you saying that the Ouyang family sent someone to meet Mrs. Sun Wukong?" Dong Jianhui's face darkened. This kind of thing is very common. He bought or threatened the parties involved to change their confessions or confess their guilt, and received a large amount of compensation afterwards, etc.
"The lower official just presented the facts and didn't know anything else." Liu Shundao.
"What else?" Dong Jianhui didn't think that the Ouyang family had just such a few tricks.
"And, and that's right..." Liu Shun started to whimper.
"What else? Could it be that Director Liu wants to hinder my officer from understanding the truth of the case?" Dong Jianhui said sternly.
"The officials dare not dare. It was just that the imperial envoy Liu involved in this time. The officials hesitated for a moment and did not say it out."
"Old man Liu, what's wrong with him here?" Dong Jianhui asked in confusion.
"Just a while ago, Ouyang Jian from the Ouyang family visited Lord Liu to the Governor's Office. The two talked for a long time. At the end, Lord Liu personally sent Ouyang Jian out of the Governor's Office. The official thought to himself that Lord Liu would have agreed to Ouyang Jian's affairs?" Liu Shun glanced secretly at Dong Jianhui's face.
Sure enough, Dong Jianhui's face suddenly turned dark. Although Liu Kuisheng was a deputy, he really couldn't control him when he became serious.
"Is this really a matter?" Dong Jianhui confirmed.
"How can the officials in this matter dare to lie in front of you? But the officials behind them are all speculations. Maybe this is not the case. Lord Dong must not take it seriously." Liu Shun said.
"Okay, you did a good job, Director Liu, I want to know everything about the Ouyang family from now on." Dong Jianhui said heavily.
"The official understands!" Liu Shun nodded in a hurry.
"Director Liu, let your people go to Sun Wukong's house and invite his wife over, and then say that I have something to ask her." Dong Jianhui ordered.
"Yes, the official will send someone here!" Liu Shun bowed and said.
"Remember, be a little better. Your men are too rude in their work, which is not good." Dong Jianhui said solemnly.
"The official understands that Lord Dong, you are really a good official who loves the people as much as your son." Liu Shun praised sincerely.
"So what about a good official?" Dong Jianhui smiled self-deprecatingly and waved his hand, "You go."
"I have met Mrs. Hua Ming!" Liu Shun bowed to Hua Ming respectfully.
Hua Ming smiled calmly: "But Dong Jianhui asked you to come?"
"Madam Hua Ming is wise, is it the subordinates of Dong Jianhui sent him?" Liu Shundao.
Hua Ming sighed, "You are so reckless. I am a woman from a country rich man. Is it worth your Director Liu personally going to visit?"
"Uh?" Liu Shun was shocked. He was indeed a little reckless. Someone would find a flaw in this subtle. "I was just anxious in my heart, but I didn't expect that it was my subordinate's negligence!"
"Forget it, this also means that you will not cause too much suspicion when doing things yourself, but this is only once, and I won't be an example. Do you understand?" Hua Ming glared at him fiercely.
"I understand that I will not make such mistakes again!" Liu Shun's forehead was sweating coldly, thinking that there would be some punishment. Fortunately, Mrs. Hua Ming didn't care, otherwise she would have won't be able to please her, but she would have caused trouble to herself.
"Let's go, Dong Jianhui must be impatient to know what the Ouyang Family School said to me?"
Prison, inquiry room.
"Madam Sun, please sit down!"
Hua Ming sat down in front of Dong Jianhui, with a hint of panic on his face. Dong Jianhui was very calm. If a country woman was too calm, she would be suspicious. Hua Ming's performance was completely within his expectations.
"Sun Hua, do you know what crime your husband committed?" Dong Jianhui's cold eyes were shining at Hua Ming like lightning.
"The civilian woman doesn't know." Hua Ming shivered for a moment, and was so scared that he quickly lowered his head, not daring to look at Dong Jianhui. Of course, all this was pretending.
"Your husband intends to tease a noble widow in a public place, but he accidentally injured someone. According to the law of my Minglan Empire, you can be sentenced to up to twenty years in prison. If you hurt someone on purpose, you will have to be sentenced to at least five years in prison. The person who was beaten by your husband is the heir of the Ouyang family and also has a noble title. If a civilian beats a noble family, the punishment will be doubled according to the law, that is, the punishment will be punished for both crimes. Your husband will be sentenced to at least thirty years in prison!" Dong Jianhui said sternly.
"No, no, the husband of a civilian woman was wronged. He was a man with no power. How could he tease a noble lady and injured a noble young man?" Hua Ming of course had to cooperate. Dong Jianhui was quite scary. Ordinary common people were afraid that they would be scared to death when they encountered this situation. Kowtow was like pounding garlic. However, Hua Ming did not want to kowtow to such people. Even officials who scared the people might not be able to get there even if they were honest officials!
Dong Jianhui never thought that he would be despised by others, and he was deeply disdainful of him.
"You said your husband was wronged, but is there any evidence?" Dong Jianhui shouted.
"Sir, is the civilian woman your prisoner?" Hua Ming was angry. This was endless. My mother's acting was humble enough. If you don't let it go, it's simply outrageous. Can you just be an official?
"Bold and sarcastic woman, answer the words of the imperial envoy!" Dong Jianhui was stunned and could not react. Instead, the clerk beside him slapped the table and pointed at Hua Ming angrily and shouted.
"The tricky woman, why are the folk women tricked? If I hadn't said something about it today, the folk women would not obey it!" Hua Ming sneered in his heart. He really thought he was a scallion and was used to being arrogant and doing good deeds. He didn't expect someone to confront him in person.
"A bold bitch, dare to insult the imperial envoy, come!"
"Hmph, the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked!" Hua Ming sneered!
The secretary was obviously dizzy and had never seen such a stubborn country woman. He rushed up immediately and was about to slap Hua Ming's face with a palm, but he didn't expect that his opponent was faster than him. With a crisp sound, a bright red handprint on the secretary's left cheek was like this. If he didn't take action, wouldn't he be humiliated on his own initiative?
"You, you..." The secretary was furious. He had never suffered such a loss in his life. This time he came out to handle the case, and thought it was so popular that he drank spicy food. Who knew how frustrating he felt when he was staying in such a dark and broken place with a bunch of stinky and hard prisoners?
"Enough, Secretary, are you the one who decides this or the one who decides this?" Dong Jianhui slapped the table and roared.
The clerk suddenly woke up, as if he had been in power.
"Mr. Dong, this tricky woman..."
"Shut up, I think you should be opened. Sooner or later, your mouth will bring you disaster!" Dong Jianhui shouted sternly.
"Mr. Dong, I'm a little late to teach your dog a lesson now?" Hua Ming sneered.
"Sun Hua, please forgive me if you want to forgive me!" Dong Jianhui squeezed out from his teeth, which showed that he was also dissatisfied with Hua Ming.
"Why, Lord Dong claims to be honest in his life and beg for the people. Have you also learned to jump over the wall with a desperate situation?" Hua Ming said sarcastically.
"You are not a country woman. You can't say such words from a country woman?" Dong Jianhui stared at Hua Ming and asked.
"Why, in Lord Dong's heart, rural women should be stupid and ignorant. Do you allow you to threaten and insult them at will?" Hua Ming replied coldly.
Dong Jianhui's face turned red and white. Indeed, his attitude just now had been influenced by the times. Although he felt that he was dedicated to the people, he was a noble and might not respect the common people from the bottom of his heart. But he was better than ordinary nobles and officials, at least he insisted on a little justice!
"I did have a little wrong attitude and tone of the question just now. I hope Mrs. Sun will forgive me!" Dong Jianhui bowed deeply.
"No, the civilian woman just thinks that Lord Dong has such a great official power. In your eyes, we ordinary people are all your sinners and criminals, right?" Hua Ming pointed at Dong Jianhui's heart.
"I didn't say that."
"Then Lord Dong was just in a position, was he interrogating a civilian woman?"
"No, I just have a few questions to ask Mrs. Sun, not interrogation." Dong Jianhui said in a panic. He did play with a small eye, but this kind of small eye may have unexpected effects on others, but he was wrong about his opponent. Hua Ming originally wanted to give him some face, but Dong Jianhui seemed to be too immersed in the role. He actually thought she was a weak woman who could be bullied!
Although she understood Dong Jianhui's purpose, he wanted to tell the truth in fear and panic, because in this mentality, if people wanted to make lies, they would definitely make mistakes. Dong Jianhui wanted the truth, so he thought that Sun Hua was just an ordinary country woman. At this shock, he said nothing.
The reason why Dong Jianhui did this was because he knew in advance that the Ouyang family had found her, and maybe he had already made some threatening words. In such a fright, the other party could temporarily forget the threat of the Ouyang family and reveal the truth to him!
This method cannot be said to be bad, but it will greatly hurt the person's self-esteem. Although it is a kind heart, it may not be a good thing!
Moreover, Dong Jianhui met Hua Ming. Although Hua Ming had insight into his intentions, she did not have the good habit of enduring humiliation and being angry. Of course, she counterattacked fiercely, destroying Dong Jianhui's wishful thinking and even taking the initiative.
"Since it's not an interrogation, what does this adult mean when he just spoke up as a foolish woman?" Hua Ming sneered, "If the civilian woman is not a criminal, and he repeatedly insulted the civilian woman, what should he do according to the law of the empire?"
"According to Article 316 of the Imperial Criminal Law, those who insult innocently and cause bad consequences may be sentenced to three months in prison or open their mouths in public!"
"Oh, according to the law, how should that lord just now be punished?" Hua Ming said to the secretary who covered his mouth and was sobbing.
"This, this..." Dong Jianhui hesitated.
"Maybe he be your subordinate, can he betray the power for personal gain?" Hua Ming had no intention of letting go of the clerk. If it were in the Demon World, this person had been killed by her before he could scold him. How could he have spared so many circles?
"No, I have always enforced the law impartially, but, just..."
"It's just that this lord is your subordinate. If you punish him, you will be responsible for poor teaching, right?"
"I do have the responsibility of poor teaching, but the clerk is just unintentional mistakes and does not intentionally insult Mrs. Sun."
"Is that right? The first sentence may be an unintentional mistake, but next, he even tried to beat Mrs. Ben. If Mrs. Ben hadn't dodged in time, I'm afraid my wife would be like him now." Hua Ming pointed to the secretary angrily.
