Chapter 318: County Magistrate Accepts Bribe
Chapter 318: County Magistrate Accepts Bribe
"I heard that your daughter is illiterate and doesn't even know your name?"
"Your legitimate daughter is not only ugly, but also raped by a group of people!"
"Pull him out."
Weng Yan was slandered by the county magistrate Liu Huai about his legitimate daughter, so he decided to teach him a lesson today!
"What are you all standing there for? Where does the barking come from? Take this man out and twist out his tongue."
When Weng Ruoyun heard the county magistrate Liu Huai insulting Weng Yan's legitimate daughter Weng Ruo, she still found it pleasing to the ear!
Weng Ruoyun, the legitimate daughter of Weng Yan, was also a concubine after she followed Qin Qin, wasn't she?
But Weng Ruoyun thought that since she had no background now, it would be difficult to offend Weng Yan!
Weng Ruoyun directly ordered the guards to drag the county magistrate Liu Huai down and twist his tongue!
"You are not Weng Yan's daughter. His daughter is timid and cowardly. You are fake...ah..."
Before the county magistrate Liu Kui could finish his words, he heard a scream and the guard held up his tongue and showed it to Weng Ruoyun.
Weng Ruoyun pretended to be calm and took a glance, but she almost fainted from the bloody tongue!
Weng Ruoyun held on to the chair with both hands, trying to calm herself down!
In fact, Weng Ruoyun was so panicked that she looked like five horses galloping!
"Present this filthy thing to me?"
"Aren't you afraid of scaring the baby in my belly? I'll take her away and put her in jail to await trial!"
"Throw this filthy thing directly to the dogs!"
When Weng Ruoyun thought of that bloody tongue, she broke out in a cold sweat!
She angrily ordered the guards to take him away immediately and to put the county magistrate in jail as well.
What did Weng Yan see when Weng Ruoyun acted on his own initiative?
Weng Yan looked at her with some worry. If this got to Qin Yan's ears, wouldn't he be accused of allowing a girl to bully the official?
"You go and pack up. I have something important to discuss with the father-in-law."
When Weng Ruoyun saw Weng Yan’s sad face, wasn’t she happy to let him vent his anger?
"Oh, it's summer now, so find a cool place to store the bodies of the six students."
"See if anyone comes to report the case and seek redress in the next few days."
Weng Ruoyun half leaned back on a wooden chair, rubbing her temples with her hands worriedly, thinking.
[How should I explain this to Qin Qin? The county magistrate is also an official. What will Qin do to me if he finds out?]
Just when Weng Ruoyun was worried, several guards carried large and small wooden boxes and hurried to the main hall to report the truth to her.
"Your Majesty, we are searching the house of Magistrate Liu's wife and family for 100,000 taels of silver and 50,000 taels of gold."
"Hundreds of thousands of rare treasures, should they be reported to the imperial court?"
"Let him go first and continue investigating this county magistrate. How could a county magistrate be so greedy?"
Weng Ruoyun looked at the rare treasures in the wooden box in front of her, ten thousand taels of gold and one hundred thousand taels of silver?
A county magistrate's monthly salary is only a hundred taels of silver. How long has he been in office and how much bribes has he received?
"Go and check again, which royal relative of the Xiao family does this County Magistrate Liu Kui rely on?"
Royal relative Weng Ruoyun thought of that sickly Dongfang Li!
As long as Liu Huai was not related to the Imperial Master's Mansion, she would be able to find an excuse to get away with it with Qin Yan!
"Reporting to the Queen, I have found that Magistrate Liu and Hu County Inspector Xiao Zhenyi, the only son of the current Seventh Prince's uncle, have been exchanging letters. Please have a look, Your Majesty."
Then the guard handed a letter to Weng Ruoyun, and at the same time, they were a little worried about her. Don't mess with the Xiao family, the in-laws!
Because if a county magistrate offends the royal family, he may not have a good life!
When Weng Ruoyun took the letters, she became angrier and angrier. Each letter was about transactions with the enemy country, forcing women into prostitution and reselling women!
Using children to test drugs in order to seek the way to immortality, a woman bought them back with ten taels of silver, but used ten thousand gold to cover up the evidence!
Weng Ruoyun looked at the letter in her hand and she couldn't believe it!
As a royal relative, how could the Xiao family collude with the enemy country to harm the people?
