Before Master Bi, who was beating Master Huang, could react, he was dragged up, and a bunch of walnuts were stuffed into his mouth, and then he was tied up like a dumpling. Master Huang on the ground was gasping for breath like a dead dog. When he was pulled up, even though his mouth was gagged and he was tied up and taken away, he didn't even struggle a little.
Zhang Shou watched the two men being dragged away one after another. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Zhu Tingfang say, "I was just planning to catch this smart guy, but I didn't expect you to get there first. I heard that you even tricked him into revealing how much money he had on him in public. This trick of yours is a bloodless murder!"
"Who made him want to regain his lost face after offending Yingying, jumping around in Cangzhou City?" Zhang Shou laughed and casually recounted the conversation between Master Bi and Manager Hua that Xiaohuasheng heard in Hua's Silk Shop. As for whether the two people's retelling of the incident would be completely distorted, he was naturally not worried, because Zhu Tingfang still had the ability to judge.
He paused for a moment, then said nonchalantly, "However, today was really too much of a coincidence. Not only did I run into both of them, but they were also taken to the county government office, and it turned out that they were all related to me. This is really strange."
"The first case was that Shopkeeper Hua took the initiative to send someone to see me to report it. You just happened to say that you were going there today, so I told him something, and that's why you happened to run into him."
Zhu Tingfang readily explained the origin of the first coincidence, and then laughed, "As for you bumping into this prefect's son, it's because your chances of running into trouble are too high. I heard that you ran into him smashing a cup on Jile Street last time?"
Zhang Shou didn't expect that his future brother-in-law would make such a joke, and he immediately retorted: "The last time I ran into him, I had to ask Cao Wu, the one you recommended as a guide for me."
"This guy is interesting. He was recommended to me by Yingying. He also has some influence on many escort agencies and martial arts schools. Of course I have to use him. He brought you to see Huang Wei, most likely just to remind you that there is such a person stirring up trouble. Of course, even if he wasn't there, those two idiots were so blatantly jumping around. Do they think I'm blind and deaf?"
At this point, Zhu Tingfang said calmly: "The two of them will be locked up in a cell and allowed to fight each other! After two days, I will send them directly to the capital in a prison cart and have the Hejian prefect go to the capital to file a complaint!"
The elder brother-in-law is really ruthless! Zhang Shou muttered in his heart again, but since Zhu Tingfang didn't ask how the talk with Shopkeeper Hua went, he was happy to delay it for the time being. After all, although the businessman from Luzhou took on a lot of responsibility, he hadn't agreed yet, so there was no follow-up, just like the progress of his talk with Shopkeeper Hua today.
When the court had not yet reached a final decision on the matter, he certainly could not speak too confidently to others. Of course, whether these people would exert their full strength in the court after knowing it was another question.
When he came out of the lobby, he saw Ah Liu talking to Peanut at the bottom of the stairs. The little guy had obviously just come back and was wiping his sweat with his sleeves. But it seemed that he realized that he was wearing silk and it would ruin his good clothes. His movements froze. When he saw him coming down the stairs, Peanut was embarrassed and blushed.
