Mrs. Xue is also able to toss and don't care about anything, she insists on following along.

When he arrived in the city, he was sent to the government office, and he saw Xue Ming as soon as he was promoted. It happened that the official had a deep impression on Xue Ming.

As soon as he saw him, he immediately looked at the oppressive head catcher, and the head catcher hurried up and whispered everything he knew into his ear.

Master Guan patted the gavel and said, "Who is in the hall?"

The old lady Xue knelt on the ground with a thud, tears and snot running down her face when she cried, and said: "Master Guan, you have to make decisions for the grassroots! My son got married the day before yesterday, and this evil bastard strangled my son every once in a while." Dead, and blamed my youngest son, vicious."

The magistrate of the county also heard what the head catcher said just now, and said: "But how did I hear that it was your younger son who killed your elder son, but you blamed him?"

"You don't know the county magistrate. This is the youngest son of my family. He ruined my two sons for the sake of my family's property."

She didn't write a draft when she lied, Xue Ming cupped his hands and said: "The county magistrate Cao Min also said that this woman has never admitted that I am the heir of the Xue family, and I did not go to her son's room on the day of marriage. All the neighbors in the neighborhood can testify."

"That's what he colluded with. He spent a lot of money to buy off the whole village," Mrs. Xue was so unreasonable that the county magistrate couldn't stand it anymore.

"Witness?"

The old lady Xue called the servant behind her, and said, "The county magistrate is the witness. They were all drinking at my house that day. If you don't believe me, ask."

The county magistrate could tell at a glance that these two were her servants, and said, "You two know what it means to give false testimony?"

The legs of the two men were a little weak, and it took a while before they said: "I know... the two of my brothers don't know whether it is Xue Youfu who was strangled to death by Xue Ming."

The two brothers looked at each other and shook their heads: "I didn't see it, neither of my brothers saw it."

The old lady Xue stood up and raised her palm to hit the two of them in the face. The county magistrate was about to have her dragged down to hit the board, thinking that she was getting old, and just about to let her be thrown out, Xue Ming said : "Master County, I was originally a member of this family, but I was kicked out by this old lady. You heard it today. She just framed me and caused my business in Fucheng to fail. Do you think she should Make some compensation for me?"

Since ancient times, it is difficult for upright officials to decide on housework, and the county magistrate doesn't know how to cut off their housework. Originally, family separation is their own business, and he shouldn't interfere.

"Mrs. Xue, since you can't produce evidence and you have delayed other people's business, shouldn't you offer some compensation?"

The old lady Xue was naturally unwilling to give the money, or insisted that Xue Ming strangled Xue Youfu to death, "He, a bastard born of a fox, still wants me to give money, it's impossible! Don't even think about it!"

"Okay then, since this is the case, I'm going to be bothering the county magistrate for a few days, and I'm just waiting for my cousin in the prefecture to judge me." As he spoke, he directly ordered the two headhunters who sent him here, and said, "Please trouble me. You send me to a cell here for two days."

When he said this, he immediately frightened the magistrate of the county, and he immediately thought that there were many people behind Xue Ming, who were powerful, and even said: "No one else wants to go to that filthy place, why do you want to live in it? Since you are innocent, you are free, so you don't have to go to the prison!"

"The county magistrate, what you said is wrong. When you two arresters came to my house, they immediately brought me back. This one directly claimed to be the county magistrate. Since you think I am not guilty, why are you still Send someone to arrest me?"

Everyone knows how Xue Youfu died, but he didn't intend to arrest Xue Yougui, there must be something tricky about it.He thought it was absolutely impossible to just go around like this.

"This..." The county magistrate could only look at the military adviser at the side, and the military adviser didn't expect him to be so difficult, thinking that he would leave by himself if he was innocent, and he didn't expect this person to be such a rascal.

The military adviser whispered a few words in the ear of the county magistrate, and after a while, the magistrate said: "You two should go back first, I will send someone back to investigate this matter."

Xue Ming shook his head persistently, "No need, it's so troublesome to go back and forth, it seems that you won't be able to solve this case for a while, just wait for the magistrate to send someone to solve it!"

The county magistrate scolded Mrs. Xue several times in his heart, but he did not expect that she would provoke such a difficult person, and said, "But you are not guilty, so you don't need to stay in the cell."

"Has the county magistrate found the prisoner?"

County Grandpa: "No."

"That's it. I should wait for the prisoner to come before I can leave, right?" Xue Ming was determined not to leave, and stayed in the cell.

The magistrate wanted to die, "Then what will you do before you go back?"

"At least the old lady Xue has to give compensation, and there is a division, I must get my share." He said it easily, and the old lady Xue's eyes turned red with anger, and said, "No! He's just this Sinister, this money cannot be given to you, why do you take it?"

Xue Ming didn't care, stretched out his hand and called the two arresters over, and said, "Take me to the prison cell, I'll wait there for Master Qingtian to demand compensation and innocence for me."

Mrs. Xue was eager for him to enter the cell, clapped her hands and yelled loudly. After he left, she took out the money from her bosom and said, "Master County, we are still cousins. You have to help me with this matter. This bastard is a braggart. I know better than anyone else how much he weighs, all relatives in Fucheng are trying to scare you."

The county magistrate was dubious, he had never met a person who wanted to go to the cell so much, he always felt that it was not easy, "I'm afraid I can't help with this!"

The old lady Xue took out another handful of silver, put it all in front of his eyes, and said, "You really want to help me this time, magistrate, the total here is 80 taels of silver. As long as Xue Ming can stay in the cell, how much do you want? adding."

Seeing that he was a little tempted, Mrs. Xue said again: "I am adding 20 taels, a total of 100 taels. Don't worry, this bastard is my old man. He was born with a fox outside. He has no relatives and married us. The poor ghost from the next door village is cheating money this time!"

After she finished speaking, she glanced at the master at the side, and the master also said, "I think this kid is just pretending."

The county magistrate took the 100 taels on the table and said, "Shut up the mouth of the insider first, this matter will be played by ear."

Although Mrs. Xue's heart was bleeding, she felt that it was worth it to send that bastard to the cell and keep her son.

She picked up the crutch and kicked it hard on the ground twice, saying: "We must kill that bastard!"

She spoke so viciously that the master at the side shuddered and sent her away in a hurry.

The master is a shrewd person, and he came up with a plan for the county magistrate: "Master, we have to make two preparations. If Xue Ming really has contact with the magistrate, we will not be able to explain it when we send someone here."

"what do you mean?"

"Great food and drink, and then send someone to pretend to investigate the cause of Xue Youfu's death. If someone comes over there, we will catch the murderer and let Xue Ming go. If he doesn't come, we will treat him as a prisoner. What do you think? "

"That's right, I'll do as you say!" The magistrate immediately agreed, otherwise one day something will happen and my position will be lost.

He said that Song Ping'an had sailed for two days before arriving at Fucheng, fearing that Xue Ming would be bullied if he was a step too late, so he knocked on the gate of the magistrate as soon as he got off the boat.

The news he got was that Xing Zhaohe and Tao Zhixing had gone to Jiangzhou, and it would take two or three days before they came back. He was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. He went back to the shop and drank a few bowls of cold water before he calmed down.

He sat down and thought slowly, thinking that Xue Ming must know that Tao Zhixing and Xing Zhaohe were not there, but he still came to let him find it, it must be useful.

It made sense after thinking about it this way, but I was still worried, thinking that the journey between Fucheng and the city was only a day and a half away, so I asked Zhang Shuwen to go to the magistrate's gate every day to ask, and he went to the city first.

Zhang Shuwen knew that this matter was no small matter, so he kept it firmly in his heart.

Song Pingan didn't eat much on the boat, so Zhang Shuwen hurried to the back kitchen and asked someone to cook two dishes. After all, he just ate, took dry food and went to the city overnight.

Running around on both sides, Song Ping'an vomited as soon as he got off the boat, cleaned up a little, and went to see Xue Ming in the cell with food.

It happened that the county magistrate had placed two people in the cell to monitor his every move. Seeing Song Ping'an's haggard face, he hurried to report to him.

It just so happened that at this moment Mrs. Xue brought over the money and asked him to get rid of Xue Ming quickly.

The magistrate of the county has been on tenterhooks for the past few days, because he is afraid that he will offend the one in Fucheng.

Now all the resentment came out, and Xue Ming was interrogated the next day after receiving the money.

Mrs. Xue ran over again, and this time brought two people to identify her, one was Brother Song Wen and the other was Song Guangzong.

The magistrate patted the gavel and stared at Xue Ming fiercely, and said, "Xue Ming, do you plead guilty?"

"I don't admit it! What crime do I have to confess to?" Xue Ming stood upright, without even kneeling.

Xue Ming said proudly: "Xue Ming, I see what you have to do this time. Speaking of Elder Master, one of these two is my daughter-in-law and the other is the uncle of Xue Ming's family. They are here today to testify."

The county magistrate stroked his beard, pointed at Xue Ming and said, "What else do you have to say now? Also, I haven't settled with you for cheating me!"

Xue Ming didn't say a word, "Master County, the two of them haven't identified me yet, isn't it too early for you to draw conclusions in such a hurry?"

"Okay! This officer will let you die today!" The county magistrate patted the gavel again, instantly gaining confidence, and asked the two people below, "Are both of you telling the truth?"
