Chapter 849 Punishing the Two Evil Men

"Yes, how come a strange woman suddenly appeared and was brought here with Wang Henghua? It seems that she has committed a crime." A young man echoed, his eyes flashing with excitement, as if he was looking forward to the start of a big show.

Several women gathered together and chattered: "Maybe she is a bad guy in the same group as Wang Henghua. Looking at her appearance, she doesn't look like a good person."

The children were getting in and out of the crowd, looking at Sister Lin curiously. From time to time, they were pulled back by adults and slipped out again when the adults were not paying attention.

The whole scene was noisy and noisy, and various speculations came one after another. Sister Lin looked more and more uneasy under the scrutiny of everyone. Her fate was like being put on fire at this moment.

And this drama of revealing the truth directed by Xi Yu has just begun, and the subsequent developments have tightly grasped the hearts of every villager.

After a while, more and more people came, and Gan Mei also came over.

As soon as she appeared, she seemed to have her own light. Her delicate face exuded a kind of otherworldly charm. Her figure was graceful but dignified. Her simple but textured clothes made her temperament more elegant.

When everyone saw Gan Mei, their eyes lit up. They felt that she was like a fairy who accidentally fell into the mortal world from the sky, which was incompatible with the simplicity of this countryside.

Everyone was full of curiosity, secretly wondering how such a charming woman could appear in this ordinary countryside, and where did she come from?

Several young men blushed slightly, and their eyes followed Gan Mei unconsciously. They did not dare to speak loudly, for fear of offending the beauty.

The women also stopped chattering, their eyes were both amazed and envious, and the children were curious and gathered a little further away.

The scene was quiet for a while, and they were all stunned by Gan Mei's outstanding temperament.

Seeing that most of the people had arrived, Xi Yu started to speak: "This Wang Henghua set up a checkpoint, the reason being that he had no relationship with the prime minister's wife. Later, my brother Luo Xiaoyu met this sister Lin while walking on the road. This sister Lin said that she could help people become officials and then charge fees because she claimed to have a relationship with the prime minister's wife. But now I don't know if what these two people said is true."

As soon as Xi Yu finished speaking, many people were shocked.

"It turns out that this woman is also under the banner of the prime minister's wife!" Everyone started to discuss, and the scene was noisy again.

Some brave people shouted to sister Lin: "Is what you said true or false? You can't just talk about the prime minister's wife!"

Sister Lin stood there, her face pale, her lips trembling, but she couldn't say a complete sentence for a long time.

The people around her became more and more excited, waiting for what Xi Yu would say next. The atmosphere of the whole scene became more and more tense, as if a taut string could break at any time.

Xi Yu said that they would be formally tried next.

So he asked Sister Lin and Wang Henghua: "Do you really know the prime minister's wife, or are you just acting under the banner of the prime minister's wife, but you don't know the prime minister's wife at all?"

Sister Lin lowered her head, her hands unconsciously tugged at the corners of her clothes, and her body trembled slightly.

Wang Henghua's eyes rolled around, trying to find a chance to take advantage of the faces of the people around him.

But seeing the angry and expectant eyes of the crowd, he swallowed a few times, and the atmosphere at the scene fell into a stalemate for a while.

Everyone held their breath, waiting for them to give an explanation. The whole scene was so quiet that it seemed that everyone's heartbeat could be heard, and the tense atmosphere was like a dark cloud hanging over everyone's head.

Wang Henghua quickly pretended to be calm again, stiffening his neck and retorting: "I set up this checkpoint with the tacit consent of the prime minister's wife."

Luo Xiaoyu snorted coldly, took a step forward, looked directly at Wang Henghua, and said loudly: "Don't quibble. You are just trying to find an excuse for your evil deeds. The villagers present can see it clearly. What are you thinking!"

The people around him also echoed and pointed at Wang Henghua, shouting at him to stop trying to deceive everyone. Sister Lin was standing aside, her forehead was already covered with cold sweat, her eyes were dodging, and she didn't dare to look at the questioning eyes of the crowd. She was in a state of anxiety, not knowing how this scene would end next.

And Wang Henghua was still holding on, but under the appearance of pretending to be calm, he was already extremely guilty.

Xi Yu's eyes were like torches. He turned to stare at Sister Lin and asked, "What about you?"

Sister Lin was a little flustered. Her knees softened and she fell to the ground with a "thump". She clasped her hands together and begged for mercy: "Sir, I was wrong. I don't know the Prime Minister's wife at all. I just heard about someone setting up checkpoints in Wangjiazhuang, and I was greedy for a while. I thought that I might make some money by using the name of the Prime Minister's wife, so I lied that I knew her to deceive people. I really just did it for money. But I swear, I have never killed or set fire to anyone, and I have never done such things that hurt the world. I... I don't know who you are, but looking at your aura, you must be an official, so I call you sir, please be merciful and forgive me this time."

She glanced at Xi Yu, her heart was up and down, and she only hoped to get a little forgiveness.

At this time, many people started to talk.

"This woman is so bold. To be an official, one must be both morally and academically excellent and have moral integrity. How can one buy and sell things casually?" An old man was so angry that his beard was shaking, and he kept shaking his head while leaning on his cane.

"That's right. The selection of officials by the court is a major event related to the welfare of our people. She is so good that she dares to do whatever she wants for a little money. Keeping such a person is a disaster. In my opinion, this woman deserves to die now."

A young man also echoed with indignation on his face, his words were full of contempt and resentment for such behavior.

Everyone talked one after another, and the more they talked, the more excited they became. The accusations and scoldings gathered together, as if to completely drown Sister Lin.

Sister Lin could only kowtow and mutter: "Spare my life, spare my life..."

But her voice was soon drowned out by the voices of the people around her.

Xi Yu frowned slightly, his eyes were serious. He looked at Wang Henghua and said in a deep voice: "I'll give you one last chance. You must think before you speak. Don't be stubborn."

Wang Henghua sneered, his face full of disdain, raised his neck and said loudly: "I am telling the truth. If you don't believe it, just wait and see! Humph, you offended me today, and I will punish you a hundred times in the future. The power behind me is not something you can afford to provoke. When the prime minister's wife knows about this, she will not let you guys who don't know the height of the world off easily."

There was a sense of arrogance in his words, as if he was sure that he would be fine. His arrogant appearance made the people around him hate him.

Many people clenched their fists. If they were not afraid of Wang Henghua's usual ruthlessness, they would probably rush up to teach him a lesson.

Xi Yu's face sank, his eyes became colder, he was not moved at all, just looked at Wang Henghua quietly.

Then, Xi Yu looked at Gan Mei and whispered, "Now you come and confront him."

Gan Mei nodded slightly, as if she had already made up her mind. She stepped forward and locked her cold eyes directly on Wang Henghua, but did not say a word.

The eyes of many people also focused on Gan Mei again, and they were secretly amazed that even in such a rage, the beauty's grace was still breathtaking, and the cold aura seemed to add a bit of mysterious charm to her beauty, which made people fascinated.

Gan Mei raised her eyes slightly, and a cold voice sounded in the air: "Wang Henghua, tell me, what kind of relationship do I have with you?"

Wang Henghua raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth.

"Humph, you know, I have a relationship with the prime minister's wife, you are nothing?"

Gan Mei's expression did not change, but she said lightly: "Because I am the prime minister's wife, I am Gan Mei."

When this was said, everyone in the audience was shocked.

Wang Henghua's face was full of disbelief. He never thought that the woman in front of him would be the prime minister's wife. He had originally tried to use the title of prime minister's wife to exonerate himself, but now the real prime minister's wife stood in front of him.

He felt dizzy and his mind was blank.

But then, Wang Henghua laughed again, pointing at Xi Yu and said, "This person pretended to be the prime minister, and you pretended to be the prime minister's wife. After all this trouble, it's you who are really pretending."

He laughed as he spoke, and he looked like he had caught some big handle and tried to use it to reverse the situation.

At this time, some people didn't understand the situation and began to discuss in a low voice.

"How can it be like this? I thought they were good people, but after all this trouble, they are also bad people." Everyone looked at each other, their eyes full of doubts and hesitation.

The trust they originally had in Xi Yu, Gan Mei and others began to waver at this moment, and there was a little more suspicion in their eyes when they looked at them.

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became subtle and complicated, as if a fog was shrouding everyone's hearts, making it difficult to tell who was real and who was fake.

Gan Mei raised her hand slightly, signaling everyone to be quiet. When the voices of the crowd gradually faded, she slowly said: "Fellow villagers, I, Gan Mei, hereby assure you that I am the real wife of the prime minister, and the one in front of you," she pointed to Xi Yu, "is the prime minister, absolutely not a bit fake."

As soon as she finished speaking, many people who knew the majesty of the prime minister changed their faces instantly, and hurriedly knelt down to salute, muttering "Greetings to the prime minister, greetings to the prime minister's wife".

For a while, a large group of people knelt on the ground.

Seeing this, Wang Henghua was so anxious that he jumped up and shouted: "Why are you kneeling? They are liars, and you really believe them. Are you three-year-old children? Don't be fooled by them!"

But at this moment, the people had their own thoughts. Some of them were still kneeling on the ground, just looking up secretly, not knowing who to listen to.

The scene fell into a stalemate, the atmosphere was tense and chaotic, as if an invisible storm was quietly brewing among the people.

Gan Mei then looked at Xi Yu and said softly: "Husband, why don't you reveal your identity?"

Xi Yu nodded, his expression was calm, and then slowly took out a token from his arms, raised it high, and said loudly: "Look at what this is? This is the exclusive token of the prime minister. Seeing this token is like seeing the prime minister himself. If there are still some of you who don't believe that I am the prime minister, you can go to Youzhou City with me to verify it, and then the truth will be clear."

Everyone's eyes were focused on the token at once, and those who could read came closer to carefully identify it.

Although most people have never seen the prime minister's token with their own eyes, the exquisite patterns, unique engravings and the sense of majesty on the token made many people shocked.

The originally hesitant thoughts began to slowly waver.

When Wang Henghua looked at the token, his face became extremely ugly. A trace of panic flashed in his eyes, but he still pretended to be calm and said harshly: "Humph, what can a broken sign mean? It may be a fake where it was obtained. Woolen cloth."

But after he said these words, there were only a few people who agreed with him.

Luo Xiaoyu stepped forward, raised her hand and slapped Wang Henghua hard, shouting angrily: "You bastard, you are still talking nonsense here at this time! The Prime Minister and the Prime Minister's wife have already produced their vouchers, but you still Are you making excuses and pretending that everyone is a fool?"

Wang Henghua was hit so hard by the sudden slap that he staggered for a few times before regaining his balance. A red slap mark instantly appeared on his face.

He was shocked and angry, staring at Luo Xiaoyu. He was about to speak back, but he saw the eyes of everyone around him were full of disgust and contempt. He swallowed back the harsh words and just stared at him fiercely. He looked at Luo Xiaoyu as if he was going to eat him alive, but in the end he no longer had the arrogance he had just now.

At this time, Wang Henghua also realized that the person in front of him was indeed the Prime Minister. He was so frightened that his legs weakened. He knelt down with a "plop" and kowtowed while quickly begging for mercy: "Prime Minister, Mrs. Prime Minister, please forgive me. I am sorry." Not seeing Mount Tai, he collided with the Buddha, which is really a crime worthy of death. But I am indeed related to you, Madam."

Ganmei raised her eyebrows, looked at him coldly, and said, "Then tell me about your relatives. You have to make it clear to me today. If you dare to make up nonsense again, you will not be lenient. "

Wang Henghua hurriedly said: "Madam, I have a cousin named Long Taifeng. Long Taifeng has a cousin named Hua Qianzhong. Hua Qianzhong's cousin is named Hua Qianfeng. Hua Qianfeng and your father are Where’s the brother-in-law?”

He spoke eagerly, trying to rely on this complicated and convoluted relationship to prove that he was related to Gan Mei. As he spoke, he secretly glanced at Gan Mei's face, hoping to see a hint of relief.

He kept talking for a long time, and Ganmei couldn't help but sneer and said: "It turns out that it is such an irresistible relationship. It has gone through many twists and turns, thank you for being able to say it. "

When many people around him heard this, they were stunned at first, and then they all started laughing too.

The laughter was full of ridicule for Wang Henghua's far-fetched remarks, and the originally tense atmosphere at the scene became a little humorous because of this, but everyone still looked at Wang Henghua with undisguised contempt in their eyes.

Then, Gan Mei sneered and said righteously: "Not to mention just such roundabout relatives, even legitimate and close relatives must not act under my banner. He set up checkpoints here to amass money wantonly. It completely violates the laws of the Han Dynasty, and such evil behavior cannot be tolerated. "

Ganmei's words were resounding and echoed in the air, demonstrating justice and majesty.

At this time, the long-simmering resentment in the hearts of many people seemed to have finally found an outlet, and they began to applaud enthusiastically.

The applause was as loud as thunder, which was not only recognition and support for Gan Mei's words, but also criticism and contempt for Wang Henghua's actions.

Seeing that the situation was becoming more and more unfavorable to him, Wang Henghua still knelt down and begged for mercy, shouting with tears in his eyes: "Madam, Prime Minister, I was really wrong. Please forgive me this time. I won't dare to do it again." , I will change my mind and be a new person in the future.”

Ganmei ignored him and looked at Xi Yu.

Xi Yu frowned, thought for a moment and then said, "Take them directly to the local county government."

As soon as these words came out, he was actually shouting into the darkness. As soon as he finished speaking, several powerful secret guards dressed in black appeared immediately.

The scene that appeared quietly and suddenly really startled many people, and several exclamations suddenly came from the crowd.

Seeing this, Xi Yu quickly raised his hands to appease everyone and said loudly: "Fearless folks, these are my secret guards. They are just following orders and will not harm anyone. Today's matter will be dealt with by the county government in accordance with the rules. , give everyone justice.”

After hearing this, the people gradually calmed down, but they still looked at the secret guards with a bit of awe and curiosity, and some order was slowly restored to the scene.

Wang Henghua and Sister Lin kept kowtowing and begging for mercy.

Many people laughed at them, especially those from the same village as Wang Henghua. They believed that his existence was an insult to the village.

Wang Henghua shouted: "Sir, madam, please be lenient. We know we were wrong, and we will never dare to do it again."

Sister Lin even cried with tears on her face and said with sobs: "Although I am guilty, my crime is much lighter compared to him. Please forgive me this time. I will definitely be a good person in the future. Make up for your mistakes."

However, no matter how hard they begged, Xiyu's expression remained stern and unmoved, and he had already made up his mind to hand them over to the county government for punishment according to law.

In Xi Yu's view, the laws are strict, and the mistakes they committed cannot be easily forgiven with a few words of begging for mercy. They must be made to pay the due price for what they have done, so as to give an explanation to the people on this side. Everyone knows that those who violate laws and disciplines will never escape fair trial.

Next, Xi Yu told the secret guards: "You should go early and come back early, and you have to send Mrs. Gan back for resettlement."

The secret guards agreed in unison, and then escorted Wang Henghua and Sister Lin towards the county government office. (End of chapter)
