"Oh, come and offer incense." Ye Wuji walked around Zhao Captou, "What about your incense?"
"It's already on fire, who cares about that!"
"So, the oil on your sleeves was also stained when you used incense?"
Capt. Zhao lowered his head and looked at his sleeves. Sure enough, there was a circle of oil stains on the edge of his sleeves. He rolled his eyes around and tried to think of an excuse, but Ye Wuji kicked him down with a kick to the chest.
"It's okay, you can think of the reasons slowly, don't be in a hurry." Ye Wuji said with a smile, "If I am satisfied with the reasons you think of, I will give you a slash on the face. If not, I will slash you twice. We will slowly Play."
"You are abusing lynching!" Capt. Zhao shouted to the onlookers, "In broad daylight, there is no law."
Capt. Zhao took advantage of County Magistrate Chen's influence and often acted arrogantly. Today he collected protection fees, and tomorrow he collected tolls. Today he liked the daughter of this family, and tomorrow he liked the granddaughter of that family. Not to mention multiple tricks. People hate. The pilgrims in this temple were all from Ruixian County. When Zhao Captou was kicked down, they did not step forward and spit twice, which was already very restrained.
"Just scream, no one will save you even if you scream." This sentence that often appeared in the storybook was said by Ye Wuji. Her smiling face looked like a devil in the eyes of Capt. Zhao.
"It was County Magistrate Chen who asked me to set the fire!" The sharp sword edge got closer and closer to Capt. Zhao's face. Capt. Zhao was so frightened that he closed his eyes and shouted.
"Lie!" Ye Wuji stabbed his thigh with his sword, and Capt. Zhao screamed. The onlookers felt happy in their hearts, and no one thought there was anything wrong with Ye Wuji's actions.
"It seems that you, the head catcher, are really brave! You dare to blame the county magistrate for everything."
"I'm not lying!" Capt. Zhao said, "If you don't give our master face, of course he won't let you go. I was the one who asked me to set the fire!"
"Since you said that, I really want to ask him face to face." Ye Wuji carried Mr. Zhao to the Ruixian County Government Office without saying a word.
Magistrate Chen was not at the county office as usual. That day he and his wife swore that they would send away their concubine Li Ping'er. After thinking about it afterwards, he still couldn't bear to leave, so he quietly placed her in Pan's Alley in the west of the city. Before going out every day, she told Mrs. Chen that she was going to the Yamen, but in fact she just walked around the Yamen and then went to Panjia Hutong.
Li Ping'er was born in Goulan Yuan, and she was used to being gentle, petty, and flattering. Now that she was kicked out of the house, she used her 100% of her skills to coax Magistrate Chen to the point where he wanted to drown in Wenwen Village every day.
Li Ping'er was sitting in the courtyard, in Magistrate Chen's arms, clinking leather cups with him, when suddenly the servant came over in a panic, "Master, Madam, it's not good! The fight is coming!"
Magistrate Chen suddenly choked on his wine, and Li Ping'er couldn't help patting him on the back.
County Magistrate Chen thought it was Mrs. Chen who called in, so he bravely cursed: "Shrew, do you still have the law in your eyes? You can wander around at will. Is this the tutor of your Liu family?"
With a "bang", a person was thrown in front of Magistrate Chen, and a young man's voice was heard saying: "Who are you calling a shrew?"
When County Magistrate Chen saw that the visitor was not his wife, he immediately stopped bending his waist, straightened his back, raised his head, and spoke with more energy.
"It turns out to be Young Master Ye, what are you doing here?"
Ye Wuji kicked Mr. Zhao's head with his toes and asked, "Do you know this person?"
"Zhao Hu?" Of course County Magistrate Chen recognized his catcher. He frowned and glared at Ye Wuji, "Bold, Captor Zhao was appointed by the imperial court. How could you, a fool like you, humiliate him at will! If you have any objection to me, If you are dissatisfied, just come to me directly, why bother venting your anger!"
Ye Wuji crossed his arms across his chest and looked at Magistrate Chen with a half-smile.
"County Magistrate Chen, Capt. Zhao told me that you ordered him to set fire to the temple. I wonder if this is the case?"
