Wangye's honeypot is lost again

Chapter 299 【299】

Under Master Zhang's narration, Bai Xingkuan knew an incomplete story, mainly because it had a tail but no beginning, and there were too many conjectures that could not be verified.

Mr. Zhang likes women, but he didn't do anything out of conscience. He just likes to tease and tease little girls. If the other party really doesn't want to, he doesn't rob. Not a villain.

About seven days ago, Mr. Zhang, who was drunk, brought a servant back home. While walking on the road, he saw a familiar girl. The girl was good-looking, so Mr. Zhang molested her.

As luck would have it, members of the Holy White Tiger Gang passed by and rushed over when they heard the girl's cries for help.First he rescued the girl, then he began to teach Deng disciple a lesson, beating up both the young master Zhang and the servant.

Mr. Zhang was drunk and injured, so he couldn't leave on the spot, lying on the ground half-conscious.

But the young man was thin and thin, and Mr. Zhang was a little fatter. After the two were beaten up, the young man had no way to get Mr. Zhang back to the house, so he ran back first, intending to bring someone back to pick up the young man.

But in such a short period of time, Mr. Zhang fell into a coma, and when he was finally brought back to the mansion, he was a bit out of shape. Even if several doctors were called to rescue him, he couldn't wake him up in the end.

Naturally, Mr. Zhang couldn't let his son die in vain. After questioning the boy in detail, he directly sued the people from Shengbaihutang to the yamen.After the yamen accepted the case, they went to the door and arrested the person.

Except for the young servant who could testify, the rescued girl and two passers-by all confirmed the beating of Mr. Zhang by members of the Holy White Tiger Gang.

The brothers who were arrested also admitted to beating Mr. Zhang, but they all believed that they did not hit hard, and the beating was not fatal, and they should not have caused Mr. Zhang's death.

Regarding this, the Zhang family said with certainty that it was those members of the Holy White Tiger Gang who did it. Although those gang brothers felt that such a result should not have happened, their tone was hesitant, maybe even they themselves were not sure. After all, people are really dead!

When Bai Xingkuang was listening to Master Zhang's narration, his eyes swept over the people present, and finally his eyes fell on a woman.

Everyone else looked sad and worried, only this woman, under her angry appearance, was hiding a trace of guilty conscience.

"Who is she?" Bai Xingkuang directly pointed out the woman, causing everyone present to look in the direction she pointed.

Master Zhang frowned and said, "This is the old man's second daughter-in-law, Qu Shi."

Bai Xingkuan asked Qu Shi: "Speak up, tell me everything you know, since I pointed you out, it's useless for you to lie."

Qu's whole body was trembling, but she still held on, "Women, women don't know anything!"

Qu Shi didn't feel that she was showing something, after all, from the beginning to the end, she only saw her brother and did nothing!

Bai Xingkuan didn't want to waste time, and directly threatened: "If you don't tell the truth, I will arrest all your parents and family members and put them in jail. When will you tell the truth, and when will you release those people."

As soon as these words came out, the surrounding atmosphere changed, and the people who followed to see the fun all had strange expressions.

They felt that Bai Xingkuan was too domineering, like a model of bullying others.I also feel that this is really something that the empress can do, it really doesn't make sense at all!

What's more surprising is that many people are actually on Bai Xingkuan's side, and they all think that the pointed out Qu Shi may really have a problem, and the more they look at Qu Shi, the more they feel that she is guilty.

This is probably also the reason why all the stories about Bai Xingkuan in the past made more or less sense in the end.

Mr. Zhang is a smart man, he is stubborn, but not stupid.Seeing such a daughter-in-law, he felt chills in his heart, and shouted angrily, "Qu Shi, what's going on, what do you know, tell me!"

Qu Shi was frightened and knelt on the ground, tears flowed out uncontrollably, from choking silently to breaking down and crying loudly.

"I, I didn't do anything, I, I..."

"Tell me you know!" Bai Xingkuan's indifferent voice made Qu Shi tremble again in fright, and finally opened his mouth, "It's my younger brother, he, he just hit the elder brother twice, he didn't intend to kill him, elder brother The girl you molested is my brother's sweetheart."

Not long after the news of Mr. Zhang's death spread that day, her younger brother came to her in a panic, saying that he was one of the people who beat Mr. Zhang that day, because the girl who was molested was exactly his sweetheart.

When Qu knew about this, she was very frightened, but she didn't dare to show it, so she could only persuade her father-in-law and mother-in-law to calm down.But the father-in-law and mother-in-law, who have always been mild-tempered, decided to sue the officials, even though she tried her best to dissuade them, they did not stop them.

Everyone knows what happened next.

After Qu's narration, everyone looked different.Bai Xingkuang, Guang Zhaoming and the others were not happy because of this, but they were also relieved that the brothers in the gang who were taken away were at least not guilty of death.

However, Mr. Zhang shook his body, blow after blow, more or less unbearable.

"You, you..." Mother Zhang wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't know what to say, did she blame others for beating her son?That was clearly the fault of my own son!
"I, my miserable son, even if I deserve to be beaten, I won't deserve death!"

The rest of the people watching the excitement also sighed.In this matter, everyone is at fault, but it shouldn't be a big mistake involving human life, but it turned out to involve a human life.

Bai Xingkuan said to Guang Zhaoming: "Go to the government and talk about this matter, and you can judge it as you like."

"Yes!" Guang Zhaoming went there immediately. Although this mansion is only a merchant's house on the surface, but the daughter of the family married into a pavilion's old man, so it is not helpless.Now he only hopes that Jing Zhaoyin will not kill those brothers, after all, it is true that death is not a crime.

There was a new development in this matter, and it was recognized by both parties, which made Jing Zhaoyin very happy, and the case was immediately judged.Those members of the Holy White Tiger Gang who beat people, saved people first, and others did it later, they dealt with it according to the situation, and they were only sentenced to two years in prison and fined [-] taels of silver each.

And the younger brother of the Qu family who was beaten later was sentenced to seven years in prison and fined fifty taels of silver because he concealed the truth and aggravated the injuries of the deceased.

Neither Bai Xingkuan nor Master Zhang raised any objections to this, and the case was considered closed.

"Tell the people in the gang to be careful when you do something in the future. It's unlucky for this kind of thing to happen." After Bai Xingkuan finished speaking, he added, "Tell them too, don't dare to do anything just because of the gang. , It’s really a crime, I’m the first to send them in.”

"Yes!"
