Chapter 651 Flattery
Zhuang Rou didn't care whether the Xiongshui County Magistrate was a corrupt official, but he had so many people imprisoned in the villa next to this small county town, but he had no idea that it was just a serious mistake.
Not to mention that Zhou Youneng boasted that Tianxiang Yaju is the largest hot spring villa in this small Xiongshui County. He must have colluded with local officials in normal times, and maybe they are all in the same group.
"Who are you? You are so brave that you dare to threaten the county magistrate!" County magistrate Zhang's master shouted, and he was simply a model for those who pretend to be powerful.
Zhuang Rou gave him a big eye, "I am the fourth-rank prince consort Zhuang Rou. If you dare to speak loudly to me, I will kill you now."
Zhuang Rou is very easy to do with her power. She thinks it is good to do this, but she can't stand others as well. She is purely unreasonable.
When County Magistrate Zhang saw that although he was frightened at the beginning and deviated from the designed path, he finally came back.
He deliberately said with surprise: "You are Lord Zhuang's sister!"
"Zhuang Xuewen is indeed my brother. What advice do you have?" Zhuang Rou replied looking at him.
County Magistrate Zhang suddenly raised his hand and slapped the dog-legged master beside him, making a big noise, and scolded: "Bastard! I'm blinding your dog's eyes. Is this someone you can scold at will? Get out of here!"
After sucking the mouth, it took a lot of effort. The master's face became swollen visible to the naked eye, and even blood was sprayed out of the corners of his mouth.
He covered his face and stood there in a daze, looking at County Magistrate Zhang stiffly, and suddenly reacted, knelt down and hugged County Magistrate Zhang's legs and cried, "Sir, please spare your life! A villain is either a human, or a wild dog, he can only bite people randomly."
Not counting crying, the master opened his bow and started to thrust his face. He thrust loudly, and soon his face became swollen.
County Magistrate Zhang kicked him away and cursed fiercely: "What do you want me to do? You are the one who offended Lord Zhuang. She spared your guilt of rudeness, so I will spare you, otherwise you will continue to kneel here and slap your mouth!"
The master immediately knelt down and climbed in front of Zhuang Rou. The man and woman did not kiss her, and he did not dare to hug Zhuang Rou's legs. He just kowtowed his head to the ground with a thumping sound, and kept begging for mercy in his mouth.
Zhuang Rou looked at them for no reason. Isn’t this a big reaction?
Look at the face that I slapped myself, so swollen that my mouth couldn't even close. I was really trying to kill myself, because I was afraid that I would take advantage of the situation and really take his life.
Zhuang Rou looked at County Magistrate Zhang. Although he looked round and seemed to be a gentle person, he looked at the pitiful master in his eyes, without any pity.
It doesn't matter whether this person dies or not. If he dies, he may even be exploited.
But this guy is too terrible. He was slapped in the face and was extremely humble.
Zhuang Rou waved her hand and said, "Okay, the blood foam in her mouth is about to spray on me. Let's go down to cure the injury."
"Master Zhuang has a lot of them. I'll spare your life. Why don't you get out of here!" County Magistrate Zhang cursed.
The master clearly had his face swollen, but he jumped up like a cockroach, rolled and crawled out quickly.
Looking at his cleverness, Zhuang Rou even suspected that this guy was just used to slap in the face and please others. After all, some powerful people have strange preferences, and maybe someone who has a good mouth may not be allowed.
County Magistrate Zhang saw the opportunity, "Mr. Zhuang, someone from the county government came to report the case, saying that there was a riot here, and the officials led people to arrest many people on the road, but they didn't know what happened?"
"What's the matter? Zhou You, the head of Xiangyaju, actually set up a private prison on this day. He detained many people, but he also locked me up here. He didn't give me food for a few days, and wanted to starve me to death!" When it comes to this Zhuang Rou, he didn't fight. It's all because of the poor management of the county magistrate, which caused such a thing to happen!
She said angrily: "I want to tell my brother about this and let him see what the officials who were released were doing all day!"
County Magistrate Zhang smiled and said, "Don't be angry, Lord Zhuang, the official has sent someone to capture these criminals. I will definitely give Lord Zhuang a satisfactory explanation."
"Is that true?" Zhuang Rou asked with some doubts.
Just coaxing her, County Magistrate Zhang
He patted his chest and promised, "Master Zhuang just rest assured. These are all mobs and cannot make a big difference. Please drink a pot of tea first and wait for a while."
He turned around and shouted to the yamen runner behind him, "Let's go, I will take people over here in person, and no one is allowed to let go!"
"Yes!" The yamen runners shouted in unison, very energetic, worthy of being a wealthy county with few people. Everyone should have a lot of money and water on weekdays.
Zhuang Rou leaned against the chair and said slowly, "Okay, I'll wait and see. If you can satisfy me, I won't tell my brother about this. Maybe I'll let my brother praise you in front of the emperor."
This is a huge promise for Zhuang Rou now. If an ordinary official is grateful, he might be promoted and promoted.
County Magistrate Zhang was no exception. Although he was disdainful, his face was extremely excited. He seemed to really feel that Zhuang Rou was going to take him to get promoted and wealth, and led the yamen runners out to arrest people.
"Make me a pot of tea and move the tables and chairs in the corner of the wall outside. I want to drink tea there and wait for your county magistrate to come back." Zhuang Rou glanced at the chefs and ordered without any politeness, "You can leave after you finish them all. This prince-consort will not make things difficult for you."
She is just a fourth-rank idle prince consort, but her style is even stronger than that of the princess of the dynasty. Although she thinks more of these words, she doesn't dare to say them.
When the cooks heard about doing these things, they could leave. They quickly stood up from the corner, went to boil water and make tea with quick hands and feet, and moved the table and chairs.
Qin Qiu was not involved in the officialdom, nor was he willing to interact with the people in the government. He had been eating silently with Yin Ba since just now. Now he finally put down the bowl, and just sat lazily against the wall with his hands in his arms, as if he was about to fall asleep.
Seeing that the tables and chairs were moved out, Zhuang Rou stood up and walked out with her stomach. When she was hungry, the kitchen was fragrant. Now that she was full, there was only the smell of oil smoke left in the kitchen.
When he walked out the door and sucked the fresh air, his internal organs suddenly became cool. Zhuang Rou sat down in the yard with satisfaction, waiting to see what steps County Magistrate Zhang could do.
She didn't believe it if she was beaten to death. This guy had nothing to do with Zhou You. She was the one who wanted to rebel. She didn't believe it if she didn't bribe the local officials.
If you don’t even have this arrangement, why don’t you rebel? Just open a brothel honestly.
County Magistrate Zhang and the yamen runners said that they were arresting Tianxiang Yaju, but in fact they caught the escaped people. He did not expect that these people would escape, but most of them were not important, so it would be okay to run away a few.
The main task now is to keep Zhuang Rou here, and the people in Tianxiang Yaju don’t need to be grabbed. They just ran over and took the initiative to be tied up and pretended to be surrendered.
Then, I will bring it to Zhuang Rou first, and then take it back to the yamen by taking it back to the jail and resting in the prison for a few days.
So when County Magistrate Zhang came over with a huge crowd, Zhuang Rou had just drunk two cups of tea, and the water in the pot was still hot.
Chapter completed!
