Chapter 4： Go to court

Chapter 4 Going to court

Hearing the shout, everyone turned their eyes to her.

Chu Nanzhi calmly said: "I have grasped the important clues of this case, and I want to meet the county magistrate."

The tone was firm and forceful, and 100% confidence was immediately displayed on the face, otherwise these people would not have taken her to the county government.

But Lin Jinxiao immediately became angry when he heard it, and he was still cursing furiously while lying on the stretcher: "Chu Nanzhi, don't you think you didn't lose enough people before, and now you have to go to the county government to show yourself?"

Chu Nanzhi glanced at him coldly: "You have your own way to go, and I also have the right to choose. You chose a dead end, but I want to live well."

She knew in her heart that the anger in this guy's heart did not come overnight, and no amount of words at this time could dispel his resentment towards the original owner.

The villain's whitewashing often starts with cold eyebrows and cold fingers.

She resolutely said: "I want to avenge myself."

Lin Jinxiao was too angry to speak.

He felt that his life was completely ruined by this crazy woman.

The leading Yamen servant Zhang had also heard about the original owner's notoriety earlier, and he was both amused and annoyed when he heard her say such convincing words, but he couldn't help but walked over and asked, "Ms. Chu is going to court? "

"Um."

Chu Nanzhi nodded.

"This is not a joke. Miss Chu, think about it clearly. If you make irresponsible remarks and anger the county magistrate, I'm afraid you won't be able to come back alive."

Yamen Zhang kindly reminded him.

Chu Nanzhi smiled faintly: "I know that."

Seeing that she insisted on this, Zhang Yamen had no choice but to agree to take her back to the county government.

The Luyan Port County Yamen was extremely lively today. Although the criminals were sent to jail, it was heard that someone had the clues to the case, but the courtroom was still surrounded by many idlers watching the excitement.

Although Lin Jinxiao is only a descendant of an unpopular royal family, he is a well-known scholar in the county. In addition, his father's reputation as an upright and honest man has also attracted the squires from all over the country to intercede for him again, and the county government has been surrounded. A leak.

In the lobby, the county magistrate "slapped" a gavel, and slapped it heavily on the desk. With an expressionless face, he directly faced Chu Nanzhi and asked quite dignifiedly:

"Mr. Chu, I heard that you have clues to the tax bank robbery?"

Chu Nanzhi raised his eyes to look at the magistrate, and replied calmly: "My lord, that is indeed the case."

"Bold, you are a woman, how dare you despise the court and talk nonsense."

Contempt of court?

Chu Nanzhi was stunned.

She hasn't said anything yet.

Looking at the speaker again, it was not the county magistrate, but a small official beside him.

This is really strange.

The county magistrate also glanced at the little official suspiciously, and said to Chu Nanzhi: "Mr. Chu, if you dare to tease this official, the various instruments of torture in the county government are not for display."

In fact, I have already become an ant on a hot pot in my heart, but I still pretend to be very calm on the surface: "I have heard about your reputation, but this is not your home."

"My lord was joking."

Chu Nanzhi said: "The woman did not think about this case carefully before, and even thought about running away."

First of all, you still have to put on an honest attitude.

She knew that the county magistrate also wanted to keep Wu Shamao, otherwise she would not have come to interrogate her first.

The county magistrate was very surprised: "What, you still want to escape?"

"Attempted, so I was quick to use my wits, and came up with the result of this case by mistake."

"Oh? Then tell me."

"According to the woman, this case was not done by some Dongsang monster law, but someone deliberately did it."

"Nonsense."

Chu Nanzhi had just finished speaking, when the little official interrupted her again: "Lord county magistrate, this woman is talking nonsense, I'd better drag her down quickly and give her a hard time, so that she can learn a lesson."

Everyone in the hall looked suspicious: If the pirates hadn't resorted to magic in this case, there would be no other clues.

The county magistrate also said: "There are people who are watching the tax money from leaving the house to when it is lost. Who can do it on purpose? It has already been settled. Don't come to confuse the public, you woman. This case can only be ruled by the demon law." To be able to explain it.”

Chu Nanzhi smiled wryly: "Then, before this, have you ever heard of demon magic, and have you ever seen someone who can instantly change the shape and form of a heavy object under the nose of a person?"

"This officer has never heard of it."

The county magistrate put on a bitter face: "But it's not surprising that the Dongsang country thieves have lived overseas for generations, and they know some magic skills."

"That's right, what your lord said is that the world is so big that there are all kinds of wonders."

The little official beside him quickly echoed.

Seeing the reactions of these people, Chu Nanzhi shook her head in distress.

This is the cognition of ancient people, who felt that those who lived overseas were immortals.

Since he is a fairy, how can he have leisure to block the way and rob?

After sorting out her emotions, she could only patiently explain to these people:

"If the Dongsang people really had such powerful demonic techniques, they should have raised their troops to the west long ago and turned the Dahe Empire upside down. Why should they retreat overseas and dare not take a step beyond the thunder."

"It's just nonsense."

The county magistrate seemed to have lost his patience.

If you were expecting something just now, after hearing what she said, you were downright hopeless, and felt that this woman was nothing more than some crazy and paradoxical remarks.

He slapped Tang Mu **** the desk, and shouted: "Come here, give me a hundred punishments for pulling this woman down."

"The woman has something to say."

Chu Nanzhi stopped the yamen servant: "Your Excellency has granted three days to my husband, and now even if you want to punish the women, you don't have to rush for a moment. Don't you really want to see the truth of the case come to light?"

Hearing this, the county magistrate suddenly hesitated, and waved to the yamen servants in a daze.

"The women heard that in the past few decades, your lord and several county magistrates have worked hard to manage Luyan Port in an orderly manner. Haiyan and Heqing only pay 30% of the entire Pingning County's taxes every year, so that thieves dare not disturb them. , bandits dare not invade, under such a prosperous age, how dare Dongsang bandits invade the country."

Chu Nanzhi tried her best to keep herself calm and calm, using a tone of neither rush nor impetuosity, neither humble nor overbearing to increase the persuasiveness of her words.

The flattery contained in the words also added a bit of joy to the county magistrate's gloomy face.

She glanced at the people in the hall, and continued: "If there is really a demon law, according to the woman, it is not overseas, and it is probably in this county government."

"I see you, woman, are getting more and more restrained."

The county magistrate hadn't answered yet, but the petty official became furious, pointed at Chu Nanzhi and shouted: "Drag this woman out quickly."

"Slow down."

The county magistrate dismissed the yamen servants slowly, and suddenly smiled kindly at Chu Nanzhi:

"I would like to hear it, Mrs. Chu, who do you think is capable of demons in this county government?"

"It's actually not difficult to find out who is behind this scene."

Chu Nanzhi saw that the county magistrate repelled the left and right yamen servants, and he felt relieved: "The woman concluded that the lost tax money is still in the county yamen."

"Oh hehe, it's getting more and more interesting."

The county magistrate smiled in disbelief at the left and right officials:

"The big guys all watched the tax bank escorted out of the mansion, and the official was there at the time, personally watching the tax bank's exit from the mansion. Does anyone dare to drop the tax bank under the nose of this official? Your family I'm afraid you won't be such an idiot."

"My lord has always been dedicated to his duties, so he naturally dare not slack off when he is on errand for the adults."

Chu Nanzhi asked softly: "The woman is willing to explain the confusion for the adults, please trouble the adults to prepare a few things for the women."

"What?"

"A tael of gold, a little mercury, plus a pair of tweezers and a porcelain bowl."

The county magistrate looked confused, but looking at her determined eyes, he still agreed to her request.

After all, keeping the black hat is the most important thing.
