MTL - After I was Exiled, I Became a Noble Minister-Chapter 18 18th
An official rushed over, grabbed mu Zicheng by the collar, and shouted angrily, "It's you who stole my purse."
Mu Zicheng is very confused, "it's not me, I don't have it, I just pick it up..."
Just an empty wallet, who wants it?
He threw a punch and hit mu Zicheng's face. He screamed in pain.
"Let go of my son."
He is usually timid, but his children are his evil scales.
Although mu Ziang had both hands shackled, he followed up without thinking and kicked the official.
Mrs. Mu was so anxious, how could she fight?
She yelled to stop fighting, but no one listened to her. She hurriedly wanted to rush into the battle to stop her, but was grabbed by Mu Wanqing and picked up a clay pot.
Don't make a mess, don't worry.
Master Zeng rushed over to see this scene, "Stop everything."
The rise of the two sides fights, no one will listen to anyone who comes to persuade them.
Master Zeng frowned, touched his waist, pulled out the long knife and swung it out.
"Boom." Mu Wanqing took a step ahead and smashed the pot at the feet of the fighting person.
The huge momentum startled everyone, they separated involuntarily, and took a few steps back.
Master Zeng looked at the embarrassed crowd and asked coldly, "What's going on?"
The lost silver officer pointed at the Mu family and his son angrily, "Head, they stole my money, and their whole family are thieves."
Mu Zicheng's face was swollen, the old man was angry, anxious and aggrieved, "you talk nonsense, how could I steal your money?"
"Fart." Shiyinguancha was even more angry than him, angered, "I saw it with my own eyes, you still want to quibble? To steal it on grandpa's head, it's really boring, head, or photo It's an old rule, a thief hits fifty big boards and loses one hand."
The onlookers gasped, so serious?
Mr. Mu's expression changed, "No no no, my eldest son can't be a thief, there must be some misunderstanding..."
The lost silver officer picked up the purse that fell on the ground and asked angrily, "This is the purse where I put the money, why is it in his hands? Only your father and son have approached me this day, not you, Who else could it be?"
Yes, the only people who can get close to him are his companions, and the Mu family who do odd jobs.
"Head, this time must be severely punished, and all prisoners must know the fate of offending officials."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere suddenly changed, and the prisoners looked scared.
Deputy team Li frowned, "Mu Zicheng, you said you didn't steal it, what evidence do you have to prove yourself?"
Mu Zicheng opened his mouth, how to prove it?
The more I think about the lost silver officer, the more angry I get, "It won't be anyone else's except him, I know I shouldn't be soft on these prisoners, I shouldn't take down the shackles, dare to steal my purse today, and in the future Dare to put medicine in the meal."
A cold voice sounded, "Are you talking about me?"
It was Mu Wanqing, her dark eyes were terrifyingly cold.
The official was inexplicably guilty, and he turned his face as soon as he ate her food, as if he was a bit scolded by his job. But in the blink of an eye, what's so guilty? "Your whole family is not a good person, a nest of snakes and mice. Head, don't be fooled by her innocent face."
No matter how good the craftsmanship is, the life matters.
When he said this, the officials felt uncomfortable. They thought they had found a treasure. Who knows, hey.
In case of a grudge, put medicine in the meal…
Another official echoed, "Head, I think Brother Wang's words are right, this matter can't be left alone, who will serve us in the future?"
Master Zeng stared at mu Zicheng with a light expression, "I ask for the last time, how can you prove that you didn't steal the purse?"
"I..." Mu Zicheng was about to cry. How to prove this? He seldom goes out, and he has hardly seen anything in the world, and suddenly encountering such a thing is over.
Master Zeng can see that he is very honest, and he may not necessarily steal the money.
However, the world is not black and white.
To him, the loyalty of his subordinates is the most important.
What is she looking for?
"Yes."
Mu Zicheng's face was as pale as paper, frightened, and dense beads of sweat ooze out of his forehead.
Erye Mu and his wife rushed over and hugged their son tightly, "Don't hit him, hit me if you want."
Fifty boards will kill people.
The tension is terrifying.
"Sir, let's ask more clearly, fourth brother is not such a person." It was Mu Jinyao who spoke.
Mu Rongxue of the third room bit her lip and agreed, "Let's check again."
After all, they are all surnamed Mu, and their lips are dead and their teeth are cold.
This seems to be a start, and other Mu family members have opened their mouths to help and beg.
Mu Wanqing was surprised that the two girls were the first to speak out.
The official rudely pulled away the two Mu Erye and his wife who were in the way, and dragged Mu Zicheng out.
Mu Wanqing said coldly, "Slow."
Master Zeng's voice became a little colder, Miss Mu San has always been smart, but now she doesn't know how to advance or retreat.
"Miss Mu San, this is a big matter, I'm sorry I can't give you this face."
Not only is Mu Wanqing not afraid, but she looks calm, "I have three questions."
Without waiting for the other party to ask back, she continued, "One, what's the use of my elder brother stealing an old purse? No matter how poor my family is, there is no shortage of a purse. My family bought several pieces of cloth, You can make as many purses as you want."
The lost silver officer glared at her angrily, "There are a dozen taels of silver in the purse."
Mu Wanqing looked strange, "I see, but it's not a lot of money, my family has a few hundred taels, why did my eldest brother take a huge risk to steal? The consequences of being discovered, It’s not worth it compared to the actual benefits.”
The lost silver official was despised, and when she heard it, it was Miss Jiao who had never endured hardship, "Who would think too much money?"
Mu Wanqing did not discuss this matter with him, but changed her words, "Second, you said that you only had contact with your companions and Mu's family today, which is wrong, we fought today Did you forget about it?"
The idea of losing the silver official was taken away by her. Yes, a few people fought over the steamed buns, and they went to stop them.
The scene was chaotic at that time, and they were very close, and it was very likely that the purse would be stolen.
Before he could understand, Mu Wanqing pointed at the crowd a few times, "If I remember correctly, it's these people."
There are members of the Mu family, and there are also members of the Fang family, who look quite down.
One of the men couldn't help but red-eyed, "Mu Wanqing, you're spitting blood."
"You are unreasonably emotional, your head is slightly sideways, and you dare not look at me directly. This is a sign of a guilty conscience."
"Finger me next."
"You Hu..." At the same time, Mu Hai's voice sounded, and everyone at the scene looked at his outstretched finger in astonishment.
Amazing.
Mu Hai's head was blank for a few seconds, then he retracted his fingers in a panic.
The atmosphere was very subtle.
Master Zeng had a strange expression, waved his hand, "Go and search."
He gave an order, and his subordinates rushed over, holding Mu Hai, Mu Hai struggled desperately, "Master Zeng, it's really not me, don't listen to greedy words, Mu Hai Wanqing is cunning and treacherous, I believe she is a fool..."
The official turned a deaf ear, and searched his whole body to find fifty taels of silver.
Mu Hai blushed, "This is my own money, messenger, you made a mistake..."
The officer who lost the silver grabbed the silver and looked it over and over again, and suddenly he shouted, "I found it, my silver has a mark, there is a king character here, do you see it? My name is Wong."
The evidence is irrefutable.
Mu Hai collapsed to the ground.
She gently kicked Mu Hai, her tone was as cold as ice and snow, "I deliberately threw the empty purse here, just to frame us, say, why?"
