That's right, it was Director He.
Last night, when he returned home, Li Qingling did not sleep, but specifically waited for him, and asked him how he was doing.
He told the matter to Li Qingling.
After Li Qingling heard this, he suggested that he should guard near the He family residence to prevent Director He from escaping during the night.
He thought about it again and felt that it made sense, so he sent two soldiers to monitor the He family.
Sure enough, it was as Li Qingling had said. Director He wanted to escape at night.
If not, Director He would be able to escape this calamity.
Director He was miserably dragged up by the Wei Guo as he laid paralyzed on the ground, staring at the high up Liu Zhimo.
Why would Liu Zhimo know of his every plan?
In that moment, he regretted not listening to Cui Cuicui's words and provoking him.
Liu Zhimo was really not an ordinary county magistrate, he could bully Liu Zhimo as he liked.
He had a powerful backer, so he wasn't afraid of the He family at all. He dared to directly go against them.
It was because he was too arrogant that caused the consequences today.
Liu Zhimo lowered his eyes and looked at Director He, then forcefully slapped the Shocking Wood, and asked Director He, "Do you not know his crimes?"
Director He shook his head, "May I ask Master, what crime have I committed?" He couldn't admit it, but he definitely couldn't. Once he admitted it, he would be finished.
Guessing that Director He would not easily admit it, Liu Zhimo's expression did not change as he handed the paper over to Wei Guo and told him to bring it over for Director He to see.
Director He looked at the stack of paper in Wei Guo's hands. His heart skipped a beat, and a bad premonition rose in his heart.
When he saw the signature on the piece of paper, his eyes opened wide in hatred. F * ck, he actually … All betrayed him.
Those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds.
"Director He, are you admitting your wrongs?"
"If you don't plead guilty, I'm not guilty."
"I can see that you won't shed tears until you've seen the coffin." Liu Zhimo snorted, "Men, bring a witness."
With that, Cui Cuicui pushed through the crowd and walked over to Director He's side in tears and knelt, "Master, I wonder what crime my husband has committed?" When she found out that He Xin was at the yamen, her heart skipped a beat.
How did Liu Zhimo know that He Xin was going to escape in the night?
If that was the case, then …
"County Magistrate, I wonder what mistake this humble one's nephew has committed? For the Lord to treat us in such a manner? " Without waiting for Liu Zhimo to speak, Fourth Uncle He had already arrived.
When he had received the news, he had rushed over.
Fourth Uncle came? Was he saved? Director He excitedly turned his head to look at Fourth Uncle He.
Fourth Uncle He looked at him indifferently, then raised his head to look at Liu Zhimo, asking Liu Zhimo to give him an explanation.
"You will see what kind of mistake Director He has committed later." Liu Zhimo shouted again, "Bring the witness here."
Hearing this, Fourth Uncle He's heart sank. It seemed like it would be difficult for his nephew to handle this matter.
Liu Zhimo had obviously come prepared. He would not stop until he overturned his nephew.
If it wasn't for this idiot disobeying his orders, how could such a thing have happened?
Fourth Uncle He was angry and distressed at the same time towards Director He.
After waiting for the bodyguards to bring the other people along with the black clothed men, Director He's heart sank into the bottomless abyss. He felt that he was done for, he was definitely done for this time.
Liu Zhimo strongly patted the Shocking Wood, letting the few people talk about what happened last night.
The few of them pointed at Director He, and narrated the situation in detail.
Director He raised his head and glared at the few of them. If looks could kill, the few of them would have died who knows how many times.
If it weren't for the fact that he wanted to save them, would he have fallen to his current state?
These ingrate would die a horrible death.
"Shut up, don't think you can wrongly accuse me."
The few of them looked at Director He and tried their best to say that they were not lying.
Seeing that the few of them were about to make a ruckus, Liu Zhimo used his strength to slap the wood that had alarmed them. When they quieted down, he ordered the man in black to speak.
head of the men in black started to speak, but after he finished speaking, he lowered his head again.
If it weren't for his brothers, he wouldn't have casually leaked the buyer's information.
From now on, no one would be able to find them to do business.
Disclosure of the buyer was a taboo for a.s.sa.s.sins.
Forget it, let's save the lives of our brothers first.
Liu Zhimo looked at Director He and asked him if he had anything else to say.
Director He pounced on the ground and shouted at Liu Zhimo, the lord was wronged.
"My lord, after my husband came home from the yamen yesterday, he was always with my wife. How could he have the time to go out?" Cui Cuicui frowned, and explained calmly: "I ask for Sir's intelligence."
Liu Zhimo glanced at Cui Cuicui, and handed a few papers over for him to read.
After Magistrate Ma finished reciting, Liu Zhimo asked Director He again, what else did he have to say?
Director He's lips trembled, unable to speak a single word.
His previous excuses had now slapped his face.
"Mrs. Cui, protecting a criminal is also a crime."
Hearing that, Cui Cuicui slowly kneeled down, raised her head, and looked at Liu Zhimo with misty eyes, "Master, please forgive me for my painstaking efforts, but I am still not strong enough! This humble woman does not want this humble woman's child to lose its father. " She sobbed twice, "If Magistrate's Wife makes a mistake, I think Master …" The words she did not finish were clearly heard by everyone present.
Liu Zhimo said with a cold face. The Son of Heaven has committed the same crime as the commoners, if one day my wife makes a mistake, I won't cover for her.
"Milord, don't say too much." He carefully flicked his tongue.
Li Qingling, who had always been standing in the middle of the crowd, slowly walked out upon hearing these words. With a serious expression, he looked at Cui Cuicui and said, "If I make a mistake one day, I'll personally come to the yamen to confess it, even without sire's words." If it wasn't for her being impulsive, she wanted to see what kind of crime Director He would be sentenced to. He wouldn't coincidentally hear these words, "However, I won't let myself make a mistake one day. I won't let my lord be shamed."
As soon as his words fell, the surrounding commoners roared, "Well said!"
Only such a Magistrate's Wife was worthy of the County Magistrate.
Cui Cuicui's hands tightly gripped onto the dress. She had never thought that Li Qingling would be here, to so easily refute her words, leaving her speechless.
Li Qingling did not let Cui Cuicui go, continuing on. Did the Mrs. Cui not know that protecting criminals is also a crime?
She wasn't the type of person who would send someone a smile when she had been wronged. She had a very small heart, she would let anyone who dared to slander her suffer.
"I'm sorry, but this humble woman is too afraid of losing her husband. That's why …" Cui Cuicui was willing to yield, but when she heard Li Qingling's words, she immediately apologized, "Magistrate's Wife, I believe you can understand this humble woman's feelings."
"My apologies, but I do not understand. My master will not give me the chance to experience such a state of mind. I am truly sorry, but I cannot agree with Mrs. Cui's words."
With a "puchi", it was unknown who laughed first, but then it was as if they were infected. The commoners also began chuckling softly.
Magistrate's Wife must be showing his love right? Right? Right?
Cui Cuicui's fingers that were holding onto her clothes became pale, she grinded her teeth, then sighed and said, "Magistrate's Wife, not everyone is as outstanding as the County Magistrate, every family has its own problems, I hope you can understand this woman's feelings." Then, she raised her head to look at the commoners, "Fellow villagers and elders, are you as outstanding as County Magistrate? Would they make a mistake? "
When the commoners heard this, they gradually grew silent.
Trying to incite the people? She wouldn't give her a chance.
"Undeniably, people make mistakes. But, what's wrong with this person?" Li Qingling turned his head to face the citizens, "Fathers and elders, I believe you all know what mistake Director He committed? Do you think you should forgive him? "
The commoners looked at each other and cried out that they would not forgive.
Those people had committed so many crimes when they were serving as yamen runners. How could they be released?
If they came out, would they seek revenge?
When they thought of this, the commoners s.h.i.+vered and continued shouting, "This must not be forgiven."
She was clearly talking about her, but why was she talking about He Xin now? Li Qingling was trying to change the concept, causing him to clench his teeth in anger.
Li Qingling raised his hand, waiting for the commoners to quiet down, she turned to face Liu Zhimo, and blessed him, "Master, I am sorry that I stole your home ground, please forgive me."
A hint of laughter flashed past Liu Zhimo's eyes, but his face remained stern. Patting the wood that caused one to feel shocked, he said, "Next time is not the case."
"Yes, milord." Li Qingling blessed his body again, then turned and walked back into the crowd.
Liu Zhimo looked at her deeply, then turned his gaze towards Director He, and asked him what punishment he should take?
With the momentum gone, Director He did not dare to argue anymore. He lowered his head and admitted defeat.
Regret … I regret it so much.
Unfortunately, there was no medicine for regret in this world.
Liu Zhimo slapped the Shocking Wood, threw down a stick, and sentenced Director He to three years of imprisonment.
If not for the fact that he had not investigated the crimes that Director He committed, his sentence would not have been this light.
Three years?
He was going to be locked up in jail for three years?
After Director He heard this, his eyes rolled back as he fainted.
"Darling …" Cui Cuicui shouted, jumping onto Director He, she raised her head and looked at Liu Zhimo, "Master, didn't those people not manage to escape? Can't this commoner's husband just get off lightly? "
After Liu Zhimo heard this, he almost laughed out of anger, "Mrs. Cui, according to what you have said, even if you can't kill someone, you can't kill them? He narrowed his eyes to look at Cui Cuicui, his gaze sharp, "Mrs. Cui, have you ever thought about the consequences of letting these few people escape? Can you guarantee that they won't take revenge on the citizens of Ninghua County? "
Cui Cuicui's mouth moved, unable to speak, she … No guarantee.
Once he was done with Cui Cuicui, Liu Zhimo looked at Fourth Uncle He and asked him if he had anything he wanted to say. After saying it all at once.
Fourth Uncle He tactfully shook his head and said that he did not.
The result was already decided. He said that no matter how much he said it would be a waste of his saliva, so he might as well not say anything.
Liu Zhimo nodded his head in satisfaction, he patted the Shocking Wood and said, "Men, bring them back to the prison and take care of them."
After the Wei Guo and the guards brought Director He and the others back, Liu Zhimo left the hall.
