Chapter 446

"You are Lord Chu, right?" Zhou Chen's lips parted, and he said loudly, "We have heard about it a long time ago, and said that the Lord has always loved the people like his own son, and he really treats us like his own sons. So-so. Since you are so good, you can't take it as a matter of favoring her alone."

When Wang Lishi heard this, he became angry.

As soon as she put her hands on her waist, she was about to fight back.

Before she could open her mouth, Chu Ze stopped her with his hand.

"Zhou Chenshi, you said we favored her, so you can tell me why we favored her." Chu Ze looked at Zhou Chenshi.

Chu Ze's eyes were very cold, and when his eyes swept over, Zhou Chenshi felt inexplicably confused.

The words in her belly rolled around her throat.

After choking for a while, Zhou Chen finally recovered.

"My lord said you didn't favor her, so why did you give her the money?!" The more Zhou Chen thought about it, the more unhappy she felt, her tone was full of displeasure, and resentment almost overflowed from her face.

Chu Ze snorted.

This woman is really getting into the eyes of money.

My mind is full of nothing but money.

Even the heart is in the shape of a copper coin.

After all, she is a woman, so she is unreasonable and shameful, but Chu Ze is not as harsh to them as he is to men.

He is also willing to suppress his temper and have a gentle talk with them.

This time is also normal.

Chu Ze calmly suppressed the disgust in his heart, and said in as gentle a voice as possible: "The money given to her is the amount that Liu Jing agreed with you before, and it is one tael of silver. Now there is a place to build the canal, Naturally, you don’t need your land. That’s why we gave the silver to Mrs. Wang and Li, but not you.”

Chu Ze thought that his explanation was in place.

Everyone can understand it.

But the man in front of him stuck his neck, still glaring at Chu Ze.

"Why is our field only worth one or two taels of silver? It is completely reasonable to ask you for 20 taels of silver for the location of our field. You put it nicely, saying that it is for the country and the people. Let's see that you embezzled all the money Come on! You surnamed Chu, hand over the money quickly, or we will go to Yingtian and sue you!"

Zhou Chen put his hands on his waist, like a rooster that wants to fight.

Even her eyes were red, staring at Chu Ze angrily.

Chu Ze frowned.

The others also frowned.

Mrs. Wang and Li couldn't bear it anymore, she took a step forward, pointed at Mrs. Zhou and scolded Mrs. Zhou.

Others also accused Zhou Chenshi.

Zhou Chenshi was pointed at by these people, and his face was not empty.

She even stretched out her hand, passed over Mrs. Wang and Li, pointed at Chu Ze and scolded him for corruption.

Chu Ze didn't care about it.

Doesn't the emperor know if he is greedy or not?

Use her to talk.

Zhu Di's face also sank.

Just as Zhu Di was about to scold, Chu Ze heard Zhou Chen yell wildly: "What are you guys? There is Master Bai behind us. If you dare to touch us, we will immediately let Master Bai kill you all!" But after she finished speaking, His expression was obviously blank.

Like some regret.

And Chu Ze quickly grabbed Zhu Di, pointed at Zhou Chenshi, and said in surprise: "She said just now that Zhu Qingwen is behind her? Did we get it wrong?"

When did this woman get involved with Bai Qingwen?

Not only did he find it strange, Wang Lishi also sneered at her overthinking herself.

"What are you, dare to let Master Bai back you up? If you are really capable, you should ask Master Bai to speak for you!"

The words have already been sent out, and they cannot be taken back at this time.

Zhou Chen could only continue to hold on with sternness on the outside and on the inside: "Of course we have this ability!"

"Then take it out!"

"We..." Zhou Chen's already guilty heart was even more guilty now.

Seeing her like this, the disdain in Wang Li's heart became stronger.

"Can't you get it out? We knew you couldn't get it out. You're yelling fiercely here, so you should ask Mr. Bai to come out and say something for you!" Wang Li slapped on Zhou Chen's mouth arrogantly. Face.

Seeing Zhou Chen's hesitation, Chu Ze didn't speak.

This was not the result he wanted.

When Mrs. Zhou Chen said this sentence just now, she looked determined, not as if she said it casually.

It seems... there is something in the hole.

Chu Ze thought of what Zhu Xi said earlier.

He had to get out what Zhou Chen was holding.

"Hmph, we have a close relationship with Master Bai. If you really have something to do with Master Bai, why didn't Master Bai never mention it to us? Now he is still using his name here to pretend to be a tiger, really don't let Master Bai go. It is in my eyes. Come here, arrest this tricky woman for us, we have to interrogate and understand, don't just let people discredit Master Bai."

Chu Ze gave the people around him a look, and his guards immediately stepped forward and grabbed Zhou Chenshi.

Zhou Chen still wanted to swear, but just after a few words of swearing, the guards blocked her mouth with something.

Seeing Mrs. Zhou and Chen being escorted away, Mrs. Wang and Li spat: "Bah! This shameless old whore should be locked in prison until she dies."

"That's right, I refused to let Tian go, and now I'm still making trouble. It's too much."

After arresting someone, Chu Ze hurried back to interrogate him.

He said a few perfunctory words casually, and then led the people away.

Liu Jing watched Chu Ze come and go without saying a word to him.

Liu Jing subconsciously wanted to catch up.

"Hey, where are you going?" Sun Zhengde grabbed Liu Jing's hand and said, "My lord has something to do, why are you chasing after him?"

Liu Jing turned around with a blank face, puzzled and said: "But didn't your lord come to see the progress of the canal, why did you leave without asking a few questions?"

"Your Excellency has more important things to do, and it's not like we can't handle things here. Well, don't bother Your Excellency with these things, let's figure it out." Sun Zhengde patted Liu Jing on the back and pulled Follow people away.

……

Chu Ze didn't directly bring Zhou Chen into the county jail.

Zhizhou Prison cannot release him.

Shen Nan and Bai Qingwen are like raccoons, they put the Zhou Chen family there, waiting to send the sheep to the tiger's mouth.

The official post can't be released either.

When Kang Cheng was at the official post, seeing Zhou Chen, Bao Buqi would treat her as a gift to Bai Qingwen.

Then if he arrests someone, it will be to cut off the crisis for Bai Qingwen.

He was wasting his time.

So it is best to put people in the county jail.

The county lord just fell in his hands, and the handle is still in his hands.

Now the county lord just wants to perform well in front of him, and he absolutely dare not easily let the people he sent over cause problems.

Chu Ze secretly imprisoned him in the county jail.

Zhou Chen has lived for so many years, where has he seen such a scene.

She was so frightened that her face turned pale at the time, and her legs shook like sieves.

Zhou Chen was so arrogant when he scolded Chu Ze earlier, now Zhou Chen is so scared.

When seeing Chu Ze and Zhu Di again, Zhou Chen almost cried in fright.

She kept shaking the chains on her body.

"My lord, my lord, please spare me, we dare not make trouble again, we don't want that field anymore, you can do whatever you want, I just beg you to spare us..."
