Chapter 17 Because there are external causes, there are external consequences
The county government officials got off their horses and stood respectfully behind Mr. Liang San, with no intention of stopping those people under Li Duen.
Shopkeeper Han can't care so much. Now Mr. Liang San is his only life-saving straw, and he can't care about anything faceless. He knelt in front of Mr. Liang San with a snot and tears.
"Three sons, as you know, the business we do in Nayan Moge has been filed in the county government. You know more about Han Zhongyi's character!" With that, he raised his head and used his swollen cheek with his hand, "Third, look, this is what Li Duen's men hit!"
Mr. Liang stood there with his hands behind his back and didn't make a sound, but the face of the shopkeeper Han seemed to arouse his interest. He squatted down and frowned to look carefully. Suddenly, he reached out and patted Mr. Han on the cheek and asked in a low voice, "Does it hurt?"
Shopkeeper Han screamed and covered his cheeks and climbed far away.
Mr. Liang stood up and smiled and hooked his finger at Li Duen.
Li Duen is also a sensible person. At present, he is unwilling to offend the third county magistrate who is full of bad water.
He ran to the third son of Liang, bowed down and said, "Little Li Duen, I have seen the third son."
Mr. Liang hugged Li Duen and whispered in his ear, "Are you really beaten?"
Li Duen didn't dare to answer directly and secretly glanced at Mr. Liang. He couldn't help sighing in his heart that he might not understand Mr. Liang's thoughts for a while. I'm afraid it's bad.
Unexpectedly, just as he was thinking, Mr. Liang continued, "I heard that you have recently been to please Lord He, the county magistrate. Did Lord He signal you to do this tonight?"
Li Duen was shocked. Why has his connection with Lord He been known by so many people?
Now, Li Duen can only be ruthless and say to Mr. Liang in a low voice, "This matter is closely related to the matter entrusted by Lord He. Please forgive the little one."
When Mr. Liang heard this, he smiled, let go of Li Duen, turned to shopkeeper Han, raised his voice and asked, "Shopkeeper Han, tell me, why are they bothering you?"
The shopkeeper Han was a little confused when he saw Mr. Liang's behavior just now, but he still firmly believed that the people of the government would help him in the face of the adult behind him, so he stood up from the ground, raised his appearance, raised his hand and pointed to Li Duen and said, "He said that I robbed his goods, but that The brush is not in his hand, and neither of the father and daughter surnamed Leng told me anything about gambling debts, which was completely his excuse! It's unreasonable!"
"Oh..." Mr. Liang pretended to understand, turned his head and asked Li Duen, "He said brush, what kind of brush?"
Li Duen did not hide it, and told Mr. Liang San truth about the gambling debt owed by the old man of the Leng family and the "night general" brush.
Manager Han did not deny all the things Li Duen said, but about the part of the gambling debt, he tried his best to say that he did not know it in advance, so this matter had nothing to do with him.
Mr. Liang listened to the two of them arguing for a while, and finally showed an impatient expression. He waved his hand to stop their argument and said, "Shopkeeper Han, Mr. Li, I understand what happened between you two. Although I have no official position, I have seen my father's judgment. The most important point is that I might as well teach you now.
Li Duen and Shopkeeper Han didn't know what medicine was sold in Mr. Liang San's gourd, so they pricked up their ears and listened carefully.
Mr. Liang said with his hands behind his back and a straight face, "What's the so-called case? First of all, there is something to do. You are arguing here now, that's the matter. After something happens, there must be a leader, that is, the cause and effect. There will be someone else after that. All the people related to the matter can get together to make things clear. You two, no matter how much you quarrel now, it's useless. There is still someone left in this matter. After the people arrive, they will find witnesses and hand in the evidence, and the case will be almost solved. Do you understand?"
Li Duen and the shopkeeper Han looked at each other and suddenly realized that they had been talking for a long time, walking around the father and daughter of the Leng family and the "night general" brush, while the most important father and daughter of the Leng family and the "night general" brush were not here.
If you are handling an ordinary case, you should naturally find the father and daughter of the Leng family according to the words of Mr. Liang San, and then bring the brush. Everyone will go to court together. The county magistrate decided to break the case, and the matter will be over.
But Li Duen and Shopkeeper Han both know that this will never work.
If the father and daughter of the Leng family hear that they are going to confront each other in court, they will definitely try their best to escape.
In an hour, it was quiet all around.
Mr. Liang looked at Li Duen, and then at Mr. Han, and suddenly laughed.
Sen's cold laughter looked extremely strange under the night, and Li Duen and shopkeeper Han couldn't help sweating coldly.
After Mr. Liang laughed enough, he pointed to the shopkeeper Han and asked Li Du'en, "Do you know who is supporting this old man behind his back?"
Li Duen frowned and thought about it, sneered and said, "I do know that adult, but I'm afraid it's hard to say whether that adult will stand behind him and support him."
When Mr. Liang heard the words, a cold light flashed in his eyes, but he still walked to Li Duen with a smile, patted him on the shoulder twice, and whispered, "If the grass is not eradicated, the future will be endless."
After saying that, he walked to his horse with a smile and raised his voice and said, "The two merchants of Nayan Moge and Lijia Gambling Village are fighting in the middle of the night! Let it develop, it will definitely make the people of Nayan County complain, so it is hard for the government officials to take them to the detention center. Such a bad thing must not be tolerated! Also, according to what the two of them said, you also take the father and daughter of the Leng family back to the county government for interrogation together, and find the brush by the way, which is important evidence!"
Under the order of Mr. Liang, the government around him roared, and he tied Li Duen and the shopkeeper Han with ropes. Before Li Duen and Shopkeeper Han could react what was going on, the third son of Liang had already got on his horse and ran to the surrounding crowd and waved to him.
Li Duen's group of men did not dare to confront the government office at all, so these people could only watch the two people being taken away by the government office.
While the government officials rode on horses and led Li Duen and Han to the county government, several of them turned a corner and went straight to the old house where the father and daughter of the Leng family lived.
Late at night, Leng Xuanrong and Zeng Yanliang had unconsciously chatted for almost half a night, but the words between them seemed to be endless. In one word, neither of them hardly felt the passage of time.
But at this time, Zeng Yanliang suddenly got up and ran to the door of the old house to listen, and then frowned and ran back to lower his voice and said to Leng Xuanrong, "There is a horseshoe sound outside!" I don't know if it's coming here."
Leng Xuanrong also faintly heard the sound of horses' hoofs. She believed that Zeng Yanliang's judgment would not go wrong. This street house is full of honest people. Only this old house lives a wanted criminal and a fugitive father and daughter who are being offered a reward. Someone rode over in the middle of the night. If you don't look for them, you can find someone else.
The idea flashed in his head. Leng Xuanrong hurriedly pushed Zeng Yanliang and said, "Brother Yanliang, find a place to hide quickly. Don't come out anyway! I'll call my father." After saying that, she turned her head and ran to her father's house.
Zeng Yanliang knew that if someone really came to arrest people, it was the most likely to come to him. He hurriedly rolled up the bedding on the ground and looked around. There was no place for these things.
The sound of horseshoes really came to the old house.
Leng Xuanrong looked at his father lying on the bed, who looked like a dead body, and was at a loss.
At this time, Zeng Yanliang pushed the door in with the bedding in his arms. He didn't wait for him to say anything, but heard a rapid knock on the door outside.
Leng Xuanrong's heart also seemed to tremble with the dilapidated door. She looked at Zeng Yanliang and then at her father. She gritted her teeth and said to Zeng Yanliang in a low voice, "Hide, don't worry about my father."
After saying that, Leng Xuanrong stepped out of the house.
What happened in her previous life kept flashing in her mind, infering what would happen now.
When she came to the door, she tried her best to stabilize herself and asked loudly, "Who is it?"
A man's strong voice came from outside the door, "The county government is poor! Open the door!"
Leng Xuanrong's heart rose to her throat. She tried to keep calm and raised her voice and said, "Deep in the middle of the night, how inconvenient it is. I don't know what's wrong with you?"
Several government offices outside seemed to be a little impatient. One of them kicked the door and roared loudly, "Where did so much nonsense come from! We were ordered to take the cold father and daughter back to ask questions! Open the door quickly!"
Leng Xuanrong quickly ran to the door, pressed her body against the door, and said, "Has our father and daughter done something!"
The government official cursed angrily and seemed to smash the door again, but someone next to him stopped him and said to Leng Xuanrong in a softer voice, "Don't be afraid, girl. Tonight, Li Duen from the Li family gambling house took a lot of Zhuangding to find the Han shopkeeper of Nayan Moge, beat people and smashed the shop, and also shocked Mr. Liang Sanzi. The third son asked us to come to find him. Your father and daughter went there just to ask about the gambling debt and the brush.
When Leng Xuanrong heard that it turned out to be like this, her heart was suddenly half relieved.
After taking a long breath, Leng Xuanrong hurriedly said loudly, "In this case, please wait a moment..."
At this time, the ya said again, "Ah, Miss Leng, take out that brush by the way. The third son wants to see the evidence."
