after falling asleep

Chapter 394

"Oh? There's such a thing?" The short and fat official who was at odds with Musu let out an air of contrived expression.

Feng Jianzhang didn't say a word.

The Patriarch of the Feng family stood aside with no expression on his face.

There was an uproar in the Yamen.

【Not too good...】

"Li Gui, that's not what you said in the prison yesterday."

Mu Su's eyes sharpened immediately.This is a manifestation of his spirit and thoughts, so he was also known as "a pair of soul-catching eyes".

Li Gui didn't dare to look up at him, lowered his head and said quickly: "The villain suddenly realized his conscience. Mr. Feng has always been doing good deeds, and my lord can't slander him just because he has a personal enmity with him."

The short and fat official glanced at Musu proudly, coughed lightly, and said, "Master Feng and I are here today, if you have any grievances, you might as well sue, the two of us will definitely decide for you."

Yasi felt that it would be too late if he didn't speak any more, so he stood up with a smile on his face and cupped his hands and said, "My lord, there is another witness, why don't you read his testimony first?"

The short and fat official didn't even look at him, and a sarcasm sounded: "Why, you Fei County has a habit of handing down one person's certificate before you have finished asking the other person's certificate?"

Mu Su felt that he couldn't bear it any longer: "Why do you deserve to be beaten so much?"

"Who are you talking about?" The dumpy official's expression changed.

"Who deserves to be beaten, I will say who."

Seeing that the situation is not good, Ya Si quickly spoke up: "Master Mu, Master Mu is talking about being dismissed..."

Seeing Mu Su's displeased expression, the short and fat official suddenly stopped being angry, and he was in a good mood.

After all, he is a brat and cannot be provoked.

But it's true, as long as there is a city, how can it offend the gentry and nobles.

After a while, witness No.2 was brought up.

"What's the name of the witness?" the chunky official asked.

"I'm going to take care of you." The doorman replied lightly.

"I'm asking you, you need to tell the truth. Don't blame me for being rude if you conceal anything!" The short and fat official said coldly, "Did the local magistrate coerce you into accusing you of the Feng family?"

"Why, my lord wants to judge the case for me?" Mu Su squinted.

The chunky official proudly said: "Master Mu is suspected of colluding with witnesses, so I hope to avoid suspicion."

Seeing that Mu Su was silent, the short and fat official snorted coldly: "Gu Ze, why don't you tell the truth!"

Although he knelt down, the doorman straightened his back and replied: "My lord, I haven't."

The chunky official nodded in satisfaction: "That's good, tell me what you know."

"Feng Lesheng, the Patriarch of the Feng family, was dissatisfied with Master Mu's revision of taxes, so he called back the family members of Feng's family one by one to carry out the assassination. Because I was delayed on the road and did not catch up, when I arrived, I only heard that all the assassins sent were dead."

Gu Ze said slowly.There was a chatter in the yamen.It is one thing to hear what Musu said, but another to hear witnesses.From this point of view, the Feng family really did such a thing...

Mu Su exalted in high spirits.Without even looking at the pudgy official with a gloomy face.

"The testimony of the two witnesses diverges, because we don't know who is lying." At this time, Feng Jianzhang simply commented.

"It's inconvenient to try it." The short and fat official flattered at first, and then said: "Come here, and punish Gu Ze."

"My lord is so majestic." Mu Su stood behind the short and fat official with his arms folded and sneered.

The short and fat official was startled by Mu Su who suddenly appeared to the side, turned his head and shouted dissatisfiedly: "What are you doing!?"

Mu Su walked away from the short and fat official: "I've never heard of torture being used as a witness."

"The witness dared to lie in court, of course he will be interrogated by torture."

"How can you be sure that Gu Ze is lying?"

The chunky official shook his head: "He is different from the testimony of the previous witness. Since there are variables, of course it starts with him."

Mu Su sneered and stood between the two witnesses: "I think it's better to come first. The servants of the Feng family come first, and he will be tortured first."

The servant trembled when he heard the words, and looked at the short and fat official with pleading eyes.

"I can't say for sure. If someone comes here, he will use torture for Gu!"

The yamen servants on both sides remained motionless, and no one listened to the short and fat officials.

Feeling that his face was damaged, he blushed angrily and said, "You don't listen to Shangguan's words, are you planning to rebel!"

Mu Su turned tit-for-tat back: "Don't forget that the lord is a bystander in this case. How can an official bystander have such great power?"

"Don't exceed your authority." Feng Jianzhang said lightly at this time, as if reminding his colleagues.

"Your Majesty is awake." The short and fat official hurriedly bowed his hands.

Seeing that the tense atmosphere was about to ease, Mu Su muttered in a low voice: "It looks like a potato stuck on a toothpick, such a frustrated person can be an official..."

"You say it again?" The dumpy official looked gloomy.

He knew his figure and appearance, and he was usually the most disgusted when someone talked about it.

So Mu Su said it honestly and loudly.

There was laughter from outside the yamen.Mu Su's description is very apt.Even Feng Jianzhang had a smile in his eyes.

The short and fat official became angry with embarrassment: "Bold, the little magistrate dares to say such a thing about Shangguan."

Mu Su looked down at him condescendingly: "So what if I say a few words? You should be lucky, if it were my previous temper..."

The chunky official was furious: "How? You still dare to beat the imperial court officials."

"The Feng family dares to assassinate a court official, so it doesn't matter if I kill a court official?"

The chunky official sneered, "I'm sitting here, you should do it."

At this moment, Mu Su suddenly looked as if his plot had succeeded.

After leading for a long time, I finally got this product into the set.

He rolled up his sleeves and strode towards the dumpy official.

"You, what are you doing - ouch!"

With a punch, the chunky official and the chair reclined to the end.Musu leaned forward, swinging his fists to the flesh.

The scene was suddenly chaotic.The applause of the people mixed with the shouts of the chunky officials.

The Yasi was wondering whether to stop him, but seeing Mu Su holding up the wooden chair beside him, he rushed up and hugged Mu Su's waist in shock, and shouted loudly: "My lord, you have to respect yourself! So many people are watching!" !"

The chunky official, whose face was literally swollen into a pig's head, was lying on the ground screaming.

Panting, Musu threw down the wooden chair, spread his hands to the people around him, and returned to the hall: "Everyone heard it, he told me to beat him, I have never heard such a cheap request in my life."

The short and fat official struggled to get up, and the ground was clean without any dust, but the ground was dirty with nosebleeds.

He looked resentfully and roared: "I must go to Zhizhou to sue you!"

"What are you suing me for? 'I asked Master Mu to hit me and he actually hit me, sir, you are the master for me, huh'?" Mu Su looked at him with a sneer. "Don't be ashamed."

"My lord is really presumptuous." The head of the Feng family, who was originally the key to the case but now on the edge, chuckled at this moment: "I just don't know whether it's the old man who died first, or you, my lord, who died first..."

Mu Su turned pale with shock: "The two adults have seen it. It was not enough for Feng Laogou to assassinate this official yesterday. Today, he dared to be so arrogant in front of the two adults in the courtroom. It is simply unbearable! Prisoners serve with sticks, mouths, whips, backs and boards!"
