"You bold and unruly man, you dare to pretend to be someone else and sneak into the college, intentionally injuring people, you deserve to be killed! Come, arrest this villain immediately!" When County Magistrate Zeng saw Xu Changming bowing his head and admitting his guilt, he was so angry that he slapped the table, and there was only a "pop" sound, followed by an order.

The yamen runners heard the news and rushed into the hall quickly, rushing towards Xu Changming like a surging tide, and surrounded him in the blink of an eye. They held sticks in their hands and stared at Xu Changming with eager eyes, waiting for the county magistrate's order to beat him to a pulp.

"Wait!" Shangguan Hao shouted loudly, his voice was a little sharp, "The matter has not been investigated yet, your Excellency's actions are probably a little inappropriate, right?"

"Shangguan Shanzhang, are you trying to openly obstruct the investigation?" County Magistrate Wei scolded Shangguan Hao harshly.

"Bullshit! How could you see that my husband was obstructing the investigation? We haven't even figured out the whole story yet, and you're in a hurry to take him away. This is really too ugly!" Lian Wanqing could see that these three people were in a hurry to convict Xu Changming, and she immediately became furious and shouted angrily.

She had just heard Xiao Xiao say with her own ears that the hands of these three men's sons were stained with blood. How could they be allowed to walk away so openly?

"How dare you! How dare you, a woman, be so rude? Why don't you stay at home and do housework, take care of your husband and children? How can you have a say here?"

What Jiang Zhubo hated most in his life was women showing up in public. He didn't say anything just now because he saw that Shangguan Hao's wife didn't say anything. Now that she jumped out on her own, how could he let go of this opportunity?

"You are the one who is insolent!" Lian Wanqing's voice suddenly rose eight degrees, and her eyes widened as if they were about to spit fire. "This is my territory, I can do whatever I want! What the hell does it have to do with you?" She clenched her fists tightly, and her body trembled slightly because of anger.

At this moment, Lian Wanqing was like an irritated cat, with all the hair standing up, as if she was about to pounce and bite something in the next second.

Shangguan Hao looked at his wife's lovely appearance, and his eyes almost melted as if water could drip out.

Then he gently pulled his hot-tempered wife to his side to protect her. Shangguan Hao's eyes were as quiet and cold as a deep well, and he looked at Jiang Zhubo like a knife: "Jiang Zhubo, if you can't control your mouth, I, Shangguan, don't mind helping you?"

"Shangguan Hao...don't be so arrogant, hum..."

Jiang Zhubo was frightened by Shangguan Hao's sharp eyes and was defeated like a defeated rooster.

Shangguan Hao glanced at Magistrate Zeng again and said, "Magistrate Zeng, this matter concerns the lives of students from Moshan Academy. It is a serious matter, so I think it is better to examine it in front of us. What do you three adults think?"

County Magistrate Zeng was about to say something objecting, but Shangguan Hao's oppressive look forced him to hold it back.

He could only compromise and said, "Then I will give you, Shangguan Shanzhang, a favor and conduct the trial here."

After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and sat back, his face looking aggrieved, just like a young wife who had been bullied, which made Kong Xiaoxiao want to laugh.

County Magistrate Zeng is really adaptable.

When Shangguan Hao saw that County Magistrate Zeng and others had sat back, he asked Kong Xiaoxiao to be in charge of the interrogation.

After all, this matter involved the sons of Moshan Academy and Magistrate Zeng.

In order to avoid suspicion, and since Kong Xiaoxiao is the person who knows the ins and outs of the matter best, it is more appropriate for her to conduct the interrogation.

Even if County Magistrate Zeng and others were not happy about it, they had no choice but to agree.

"Xu Changming, why do you think those three students harmed your brother Xu Changgong?"

Xu Changming, who had regained his calm expression, raised a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth: "Because I saw it with my own eyes."

Kong Xiaoxiao: "Oh? Tell me what you saw."

"When I was 3 years old, my parents cruelly abandoned me in order to save money for my brother's education. It was my brother Xu Changgong who secretly hid me. He saved half of his food every day for me to eat. I grew up relying on my brother's few meals.

I grew up in the mountains, so I naturally had the ability to get food from the mountains. Later, my brother didn't have to save food for me, but he would still secretly take time to accompany me in the mountains every day and teach me how to read and write.

I was already very content with my life, but someone wanted to take away everything from me."

When my brother was in school, I always followed him secretly. A month ago, I saw the three people lying inside, tied my brother with a chain like a dog, dragged him to the mountain, forced him to bark like a dog, and forced him to drink their urine.

As long as my brother resisted, they would beat him up.

I was so angry that I rushed out and wrestled with them. That time I beat them and they fled away.

But my brother was afraid. He said that he was the county magistrate's son and his family couldn't afford to offend him. If I impulsively rushed out and beat them this time, I would definitely be retaliated against, so my brother asked me not to show up.

Unexpectedly, I obeyed and did not show up. The three men took out all their anger on my brother and asked him where I was. When my brother refused, they beat him even more severely.

I always felt that something bad was going to happen that day, so I didn't hide and went to the college secretly. When I didn't see my brother, I knew that my brother might be in danger. I hurriedly ran to the mountain, but when I arrived, my brother was only breathing his last breath. Before he died, he held my hand and asked me to hurry up, but how could I be willing to do that?

I look the same as my brother, so I decided to enter the academy in my brother's place to avenge him. When I returned to the academy as my brother, the three of them were scared pale.

Later, these three idiots wanted to bully me again, but I fought back one by one, and they became obedient. "

After hearing what Xu Changming said, County Magistrate Zeng's face turned pale instantly and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. He was extremely anxious and was running around like an ant on a hot pan.

"Impossible! My son would never do such a thing! I think you must have wanted to escape the blame, so you made up such an excuse to frame him!" County Magistrate Zeng widened his eyes and glared at Xu Changming, his voice full of anger and doubt.

Wei County Magistrate standing by also seemed a little uneasy at this time. His eyes flickered and he retorted guiltily: "Yes, my son is usually kind-hearted. He wouldn't even hurt an ant. How could he do such a heartless thing?"

Jiang Zhubo gritted his teeth and denied it with a stubborn look, "That's right, that's right! You alone want to slander the good men of our three families. You have ulterior motives, and you are extremely sinister and vicious!" There was a slight tremor in his voice, and it was obvious that he was very panicked.
