Chapter 549: Chapter 549: Failed to Steal a Chicken Instead Lost a Handful of Rice
Di Yelei had a sinister smile on his face, and suddenly raised his thick black eyebrows!
“Lord Su the Su County Magistrate, this businessman is asking you a question! Why don’t you answer?”
Didn’t the Su County Magistrate say that he killed his niece?
Now that his niece has become a dead person, let’s see what else he has to say!
“Your Honor! You must uphold justice for me! People say that the dead should rest in peace after being buried. This person who has been buried for days has now been brought to the court and has become the niece of Su County Magistrate? If everyone were to follow this example, what will happen… Your Honor?!”
The businessman was also a clever person. If he hadn’t figured out what was going on after watching the commotion for so long, then he would have lived in vain for decades!
In the crowd, Di Xuan held YingEr’s hand with excitement on his face!
“Little sister, Dad’s suspicions have been cleared, and Dad is fine now! Everything is fine! Hahaha…”
His excitement also stirred the people around them, and everyone turned their heads to look at the excited group of people.
Just across from them, two figures dressed as farmers in straw hats squeezed out of the crowd.
The two walked away, and it wasn’t until they turned the corner of the gate of the government office that they picked up their pace.
“Master, are we just leaving like this? Didn’t you say…” you wanted to give the son-in-law a hard time?
The man in front with fast steps lifted his head, revealing the face under the straw hat.
If it wasn’t Elder Leisure, who could it be?
Elder Leisure had no expression on his face: “I changed my mind. I suddenly felt that it might not be a bad idea to spare his life. Order to proceed as originally planned, and send him to the border city for me. What kind of ambition can a man have if he sticks to taking care of his wife and children?”
“What about the orders for the miss…”
The man hesitated a lot.
“If Sisi orders anything, you just go ahead and do it, and fully cooperate with her!”
Elder Leisure sighed! “Although I used her to force that stinky brat, it was also a last resort. No matter what, she is my daughter and I cannot let others bully her.”
“Yes, Master.”
In the government office, Su County Magistrate’s forehead throbbed with pain. It was really a case of failing to steal a chicken but actually losing a handful of rice.
But how could he understand what was going on in front of him?
He turned to talk with Xin Quan in a low voice, and the two seemed to be discussing something, with Xin Quan nodding frequently.
It was only then that the Su County Magistrate said, “Come on! Take Di Yelei back to the prison, and wait until I have investigated the ins and outs of the matter before making a decision!”
What?
Everyone was shocked!
Is Su County Magistrate still unwilling to let go even now?
“Lord Su, you and I are both seventh-rank officials, you originally had no right to interrogate me. That’s one mistake. You are the uncle of the deceased, but according to the Imperial edict of the Great Zhao, you must not participate in the trial of the case, yet you knowingly committed the offense! That’s two mistakes. You initially wronged me for raping and killing your niece, and forcibly imprisoned me in the black prison. That’s three mistakes.”
Di Yelei stepped on every point and questioned Su County Magistrate.
“Now that it has been proven that the murder is purely fictitious, Lord Su, are you still unwilling to release the prisoner?”
Su County Magistrate clenched his teeth in anger: “I don’t care about those things! Even if it’s proven that the deceased is not Cailian, the whereabouts of the real Cailian is still a mystery. Before I find her, I will not release him! Come on, take him down and lock him up in the prison!”
This was purely a strong insistence!
“Lord Su, you are a dog official! I’ll fight you to the death!”
Di Yelei, disregarding the shackles on his body, struggled to rush forward, intending to directly pull Su County Magistrate down.
However, the heavy shackles and the heavy handcuffs and leg irons seriously restricted his actions, on the contrary, the governmental office’s runners surrounded him.
