Chapter 394

"Madam, it's bad. Master Huang, they have caught the widow Wang's mother and son in Qiaotou stronghold and are interrogating by the river. They want to soak the widow Wang in a pig cage and burn her son..."

"What?"

Xu was surprised to stand up by the words of the little servant girl who rushed in with an anxious face. The female soldier and another servant girl also came over.

"Why did they put the king's widow, mother and son to death?"

Xu was a little uncomfortable today, so he decided to take a day off and stay in the house until noon. Who would have thought that such a thing had happened? Thinking of these two days, widow Wang and she walked closest, where did you still understand what was going on.

"Listen to them, it seems that the king's widow killed her father-in-law and killed her son... And her son."

"Ah!"

This time, the three people cried out at the same time. They couldn't believe it. Then Xu stabilized his mind and waved his hand.

"Go, go and have a look first."

……

When Xu brought people to the river, thousands of villagers had gathered here. Obviously, the people of several nearby villages were summoned.

Wang gouer was tied to a wooden stake and piled with firewood at his feet. Widow Wang was put into a nearby pig cage with a lot of stones. Both mother and son were not only tied up, but also blocked up.

At this time, the villagers are pointing out, some are yelling, some show sympathy, noisy, and the scene is very spectacular.

"Mrs. Xu is here..."

I don't know who screamed. The villagers immediately calmed down, turned their heads and looked at the past one after another, and automatically made way for a road. The bound King dog and the widow Wang in the pig cage struggled violently and purred in their mouths.

Huang GUI and the other two members looked calm with their hands on their backs, as if they were waiting for Xu to come.

"Master Huang, what are you doing?"

"Mayor Xu, the widow Wang doesn't abide by women's morality and destroys human relations. She not only kills her father-in-law, but also annihilates her son. If such heinous people continue to stay in the world, they will only make the whole people of Baiyan town unable to raise their heads."

"Let's not say whether it's true. Even if it's true, it should be interrogated and convicted by the government. What's the difference between lynching without interrogation and neglecting human life?"

"This immoral thing has been handled by the villagers since ancient times. The evidence of the king's widow and son's joint annihilation is conclusive. I handle things according to the rules of Baiyan town. Why do I put my life on the line?"

"That was before. Now the whole Yiling mausoleum belongs to the state of Qin. Naturally, we should act in accordance with the law of the state of Qin. Such major human life cases must be handed over to the government. How to deal with them? When a new judge is convicted according to law, even the magistrate has no right to deal with others, not to mention the squire?"

Xu naturally understood that Huang GUI and others were trying to set an example, so he didn't argue with him whether it was true, but first carried out the law of the Qin Dynasty and warned them that they had no right to deal with other people's life and death.

This is indeed the case. Even if the people are ignorant, they can see the fishiness. Otherwise, the widow Wang has nothing to do at ordinary times. It's a coincidence that she just decided to send her son to serve as a soldier and promised to open a shop in the town.

So at the moment, all the mountain people are watching. Looking at the newly arrived mayor's wife, can you keep widow Wang's mother and daughter?

"I don't know the law of the Qin Dynasty, but I know it's a rule handed down from generation to generation in Baiyan town. It seems that such evil women should soak in pig cages and such sons of men should be burned alive!"

Huang Guiyuan thought that Xu would tangle with the truth and falsehood of the matter. Who ever thought that she didn't mention the truth and falsehood, but pulled the law of the Qin Dynasty, which made him unprepared for a time. He had to brush his sleeve and say in a cold voice. Then before she could say anything, he waved to several executed men, "execute!"

"Stop!"

"Huang GUI, do you really want to ignore the law of the Qin Dynasty and insist on doing such a thing that ignores human life? Aren't you afraid of being questioned by the government afterwards? "

Xu Shi was also anxious, Jiao drank, and then shouted at Huang GUI.

"Xu Shi, I have always been respectful to you for the sake of being sent by the magistrate. This is a private matter in Baiyan town. If you continue to mess around like this and arouse people's anger, the magistrate will not blame us even if something happens."

Huang GUI's face was also gloomy. At this time, more than a dozen village women began to yell and scold in the crowd.

"This woman is not a good person to cover up such shameless evil women."

"Yes, get out of Baiyan town."

"You are not welcome here."

Originally, Huang GUI thought that there were more than a dozen village women taking the lead, and others would scold, and then the crowd was excited, but who ever thought that except a few people agreed, most of the others bowed their heads and remained silent.

He was surprised. He didn't expect that Xu had such a high reputation among the villagers in less than ten days. Thinking of this, he felt that he was going to suppress her today, so he gave the housekeeper a wink.

After a while, the dozen women scolded and even rushed towards Xu. For a moment, the crowd was in a commotion.

"I don't see who dares!"

The female soldiers drew out their short swords and protected Xu behind them. The glittering short swords scared more than a dozen women to stop. Look at me and see you, but no one dared to come forward again.

Huang GUI didn't expect that the female soldier was so fierce that he calmed the dozen women just by momentum. While getting angry, he glared at the housekeeper, meaning what to do?

The housekeeper shrunk his neck and secretly moved to the other side. Soon, more than a dozen mountain people with wooden sticks jumped out and shouted at Xu.

"Touch!"

When the female soldier saw this, she held a sword in one hand and quickly pulled out the fire gun at her waist in the other hand. She fired a gun into the sky. The loud noise immediately calmed everyone.

"Mayor Xu is an official of the eighth grade in the state of Qin. Are you going to kill officials and rebel?"

The cold voice made the dozens of mountain people step in the same way. Obviously, the words "killing officials and rebelling" were too frightening to the ordinary people.

Don't mention these ordinary villagers. Isn't Huang GUI afraid of the eight grade official on Xu? Otherwise, where do you need to incite the people to deal with Xu?

For a time, the needle dropped in the field. It was obvious that the situation had exceeded Huang GUI's expectation. He did not expect a weak woman of Xu Shi. In the face of this situation, he only showed no fear and did not step back. Just gritting his teeth, he asked the servants to go up and pull the four women apart. He burned the people first. Then, a hurried cry came from the other side of the river.

Everyone was looking for prestige, and they saw the eldest son of the Huang family running over.

After Huang Yuan came here sweating, he saw the female soldier holding a sword and confronting more than a dozen villagers. First, he arched his hand at Xu, and then immediately said anxiously to his father, "father, what's going on?"
