Chapter 85: Can't read a word
Hey, it turns out that this man who wants to compete for favor is really irresistible—even the horses that are usually used in such emergencies are prepared early.
He is really incomparable, incomparable.
While thinking this way, Xun Huan stopped on the roof to take a breath, but when he lowered his head, he saw that the seven killers on the street were also rushing to the county government office in the dark.
Moreover, the Seven Killers did not have only one person on this trip, but brought a group of guards from the Pei Mansion, about a dozen people, looking at the murderous look, it really makes people can't help but retreat at a glance.
Xun Huan swallowed his saliva, and deeply felt that Pei Sanlang's backyard was really hidden dragons and crouching tigers—the superficially bluffing Du Heng was actually a ruthless character, and even Ji'an, who looked crippled with a crutch all day long, was also skilled. not weak.
At this moment, the county government is in prison.
Pei Yi yawned and wanted to sleep.
However, County Magistrate Li and Zhao Butou blocked her bedside together, coercing and luring her to pay her money.
She was so bored that she couldn't sleep at all.
"Mr. Pei, you have offended the Bai family in the capital this time." Li County Magistrate said sideways, "This case is not easy to go to trial. I might as well tell you the truth, then Sixth Master Bai wants you to suffer. Woolen cloth."
The implication is that if you, Mr. Pei, don't use money to honor this official, you will be careful that this official will serve you with severe punishment.
"Mr. Pei, our county magistrate is also thinking of you." Catcher Zhao said earnestly, "You made a mistake this time. If the Bai family really wants to make you lose your skin, it can be said legally." In the past. I have had a friendship with you, how can I want to see you suffer like this?"
In other words: Hurry up and bring the money, or don’t blame me for turning my face and denying people.
County Magistrate Li and Zhao Butou are so arrogant now, because earlier tonight, County Magistrate Li was personally reminded by Xu Hansan, the head of the Bai family's bodyguard.
This person came to the county government office with thirty taels of silver and told the county magistrate Li that Pei Yi must be severely punished, and also suggested cryptically—if possible, it would be best if Pei Yi would not be able to enjoy family happiness in the future.
County magistrate Li felt that this request was too harsh.
How wicked to cut off the root of human life.
But holding the white flowers and heavy money sent by the Bai family in his hand, County Magistrate Li turned to think that such immorality and the like were nothing to worry about.
But Zhao Butou, as Li County Magistrate's confidant, was moved when he got the news. He told his county magistrate that Pei Yi is a big golden pig who is stupid and rich—
If the magistrate told Pei Yi the threats of the Bai family, Pei Yi would be willing to pay a higher price to beg the magistrate in order to keep her body healthy.
After hearing what Zhao Butou said, County Magistrate Li clapped his hands and applauded, and the two of them went to Pei Yi together to extort money.
I thought that a cowardly and stupid person like Pei Yi could extort money as long as they made a few threats.
Unexpectedly, Pei Yi was doing Tai Chi with them now, and she kept yawning there, as if she couldn't understand what they were saying, and was unwilling to give money for a long time.
"It's too late today, let's talk about it tomorrow if we have anything to do." Pei Yi really wanted to doze off, but she did it to entertain the two of them on purpose.
She really didn't expect that Linhe County could be so dark that the county magistrate's parents and officials came to the prison together with the head of the yamen to extort money from her.
It’s okay for people like her who are rich, but if people without money, wouldn’t they be directly entrapped to death by these two corrupt officials?
"Mr. Pei, you still have the mind to sleep. Sixth Master Bai is waiting for news." Seeing Pei Yi's disapproving expression, County Magistrate Li immediately became anxious, and his tone was full of threats. .
He glanced at Zhao Butou impatiently, and signaled him with his eyes: Didn't you say that Pei Yi is easy to extort money? Why doesn't this person respond now?
Catcher Zhao wanted to show himself well in front of the leader, so he took a majestic step towards Pei Yi with a long knife in his hand, and said fiercely: "Mr. Pei, I have already explained everything to you. If you don't know current affairs, then we I can only do justice for the Bai family."
Bullshit justice!
Pei Yi sneered in her heart, but she said with a very easy-going look on her face: "Then you have to make a guarantee letter for me. Otherwise, what if you still attack me if I give you money?" This group of people Didn't you want to blackmail her? Well, she left all the evidence. Let's see how these dog officials deny it.
As soon as County Magistrate Li heard that he was going to give money, his darkened face immediately filled with a smile, and he smiled flatteringly: "Don't worry, Mr. Li, I, Mr. Li, is definitely a loyal and trustworthy person. Mr. Li But my friend, how could I take money and do nothing?"
These words were quite explicit, Pei Yi smiled and said, "I thought Magistrate Li was very reserved."
County Magistrate Li thought that the money was about to be obtained, so he didn't mind Pei Yi's ridicule, instead he said with a cheeky smile: "I'm just a straight-talking person, so I don't use the subtlety between friends, or it's hypocrisy, isn't it? "
Yo, as long as you are willing to pay money, you can become friends? Pei Yi showed sarcasm, and said leisurely: "Then Li County Magistrate should hurry up and write a letter of guarantee—as long as I see your sincerity, money is nothing."
County Magistrate Li was delighted.
This Pei Yi is really as Zhao catcher said, she is a stupid and cowardly big golden pig!
Obviously cowardly, but still pretending to be forceful and asking him to make a written statement-this is really a lot of money and pretending to be upright.
"Why don't you hurry up and prepare your pen and ink?" said Zhao Butou, who was beside Li County Magistrate.
Zhao Butou thought that he could get a share from the county magistrate, and he was very happy, so he quickly found a simple pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
County magistrate Li was in a good mood, with a swipe of his pen, he quickly wrote a letter of guarantee, put his hands in front of Pei Yi, and smiled flatteringly: "Third Lord, take a look."
Pei Yi glanced at ten lines, gave a half-smile "Yes", and said: "Add Zhao catcher's name too."
County magistrate Li did not refute at all, and nodded with a smile: "Okay, okay, okay."
Even saying three good words, that fawning attitude is evident.
Pei Yi saw that County Magistrate Li was about to write Zhao Butou's name, and immediately stopped and said, "Signatures need to be written by myself, right?"
Zhao Butou showed embarrassment.
County magistrate Li said with a smile: "Third Master, you don't know something. Catcher Zhao is illiterate. Don't ask him to write his own name, he can't even recognize the word 'big'."
Pei Yi glanced at Zhao Butou quite unexpectedly.
Are the recruitment requirements of the county government so low?
Do you not need to be literate to be a police officer?
Then how to read the confidential letter?
Pei Yi once again deeply experienced the corruption of Da Zhou's bureaucratic system. She said blankly: "Then Mr. Li will mark it next to him. It was Zhao Butou himself who asked you to sign his name."
