After Wearing a Book, I Pampered Five Big Villains

  Xu Hu\'s face changed with fright, but he still straightened his waist and said, "Of course it\'s Mr. Pei, your county magistrate. What I just said is the truth. If Mr. Pei doesn\'t listen, he will definitely suffer."

  Pei Yi sneered and said: "It seems that your style is bigger than my county magistrate. My government office can\'t afford an uncle like you."

Xu Hu was a little flustered now, and said sternly, "Master, do you want to get rid of me? I, Xu Hu, have a reputation in our Wanshou County. Sir, I am not afraid that when the time comes, those local ruffians will cause trouble, and the county government will not be able to find anyone who can settle the situation." people?"

   These words are not aimless.

  Xu Hu has a deep relationship with the gangsters.

  Last year there was a famine in the county, and the local ruffians took the opportunity to make trouble.

  Xu Hu went out to negotiate conditions with the local ruffians, and deliberately went to the county magistrate to say that it was not easy for him to coordinate, and he got a lot of benefits by taking both.

   From this, Xu Hu felt that as long as anyone wanted to be the county magistrate of Wanshou County, he must be inseparable from Xu Hu.

   "Are you threatening me with your words?" Pei Yi looked at Xu Hu coldly, and commanded the servant beside him coldly, "Go and call the master, I have something to ask him."

  The servant responded respectfully, and the master came after a while.

  This master\'s surname is Qin, and it was originally the third prince Huo Yuan who came here to assist Pei Yi, and his attitude was very respectful.

  Pei Yi asked: "Master Qin, according to the laws of my Great Zhou, how should officials be dealt with if they corrupt thirty taels of silver?"

  Master Qin is very familiar with the laws and regulations of various places, and after a little thought, he replied: "Returning to my lord, thirty taels of embezzlement will be punished with a staff of thirty, property confiscated, and twenty years of hard labor."

  Master Qin is also very interesting. He deliberately added: "If you embezzle forty taels, you will be sentenced to fifty rods, your property will be confiscated, and the whole family will be exiled for three thousand miles."

   Seeing that the county magistrate really planned to punish him, Xu Hu couldn\'t help breaking out in a cold sweat, his face turned pale with fright, without the arrogance of just now.

  Pei Yi turned her head to look at Xiao Junji, smiled lightly and said, "Aheng, ask someone to verify the amount of money you have been defrauded of. Whether it is more than thirty taels or forty taels, the sentencing is very different."

  Xiao Jun gathered his understanding, and immediately called the servant to ask what happened.

  The servant\'s name was Mo Jian. When he entered the room and saw the situation, he knew that the county magistrate was supporting his elder son.

  Others are also clever, deliberately and slowly wriggling their fingers to recall how much money was cheated by the yamen servants.

  The slower Mo Jian counted, the more tormented Xu Hu felt.

In the end, Xu Hu couldn\'t bear it anymore, he took out a money bag from his bosom, poured all the money in it on the ground, and tremblingly said in a panic: "All Xiao Langjun\'s money is here! County magistrate, count your face!"

  Pei Yi didn\'t say yes or no, she just watched Xu Hu knelt on the ground and counted the money leisurely.

  After counting to the end, Xu Hu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and said with some luck: "A total of thirty-nine taels of silver."

  Pei Yi joked with a half-smile: "Ah Heng, your money is too outrageous. A little more than one tael would make the situation different."

  Xu Hu was dripping with cold sweat.

  A hero does not suffer immediate losses.

   It\'s a big deal for him to give up now, anyway, he has a lot of contacts in Wanshou County, so Pei Yi will feel good about finding some ruffian brothers to make trouble at that time!

Xu Hu made up his mind, knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "My lord, please forgive me! You and Xiao Langjun should die for this small crime! I know I was wrong! I am willing to hand over a hundred taels of silver for forgiveness! Sir, please let the little one live, and let the little one continue to work in the government office! I promise, the little one will be loyal to the adult, and the water will come, and the fire will go!"

  Pei Yi\'s face became even colder, and she said with a fake smile: "Are you bribing me face to face? Master Qin, how should this kind of face-to-face bribery be dealt with according to the law?"

   Master Qin said: "Return to the county magistrate, if the bribery is confirmed, the officials who accepted the bribes will be dismissed."

   "And one hundred taels is an extremely large amount, and officials who accept bribes will be punished according to the law."

   "Those who give bribes will be fined three times the amount of bribes, and half of their property will be confiscated."

  Pei Yi stared coldly at Xu Hu who was kneeling on the ground, and said with a smirk, "You are trying to trap me in an injustice."

  Xu Hu broke into cold sweat like a waterfall, kowtowed like pounding garlic, and repeatedly begged for mercy: "My lord, calm down! The little one doesn\'t understand the law, and just wants to hand over a hundred taels of silver for forgiveness! The little one will never dare to frame the big man! My lord, please forgive me!"

  Pei Yi said coldly: "Detain Xu Hu and deal with him according to the law."

  The yamen servant standing guard at the door took the order to enter, and dragged Xu Hu outside the house.

  Xu Hu\'s face was pale, and he was completely panicked.

  If it is dealt with according to the law, then he will lose all his property.

  He panicked and shouted: "My lord, spare my life! My lord, spare my life..."

  Pei Yi looked at him coldly, and ordered without haste: "Strictly investigate Xu Hu, and if he has committed other corrupt practices over the years, he will be dealt with in accordance with the law."

  Xu Hu only felt five thunders crashing on his head, his whole body went limp, he stared at the front in a daze, his eyes seemed to lose all energy, and he didn\'t even seem to have the strength to beg for mercy.

  The three yamen servants kneeling on the ground in the room broke out in cold sweat, their heads lowered, and they dared not make a sound at all.

  Pei Yi glanced at them, and asked indifferently: "Today, how much have you blackmailed Xiao Langjun?"

  These three people dared not hide anything, they confessed everything like beans poured out of a bamboo tube.

"Returning to my lord, when I heard that Xiao Langjun and you are old friends, I didn\'t dare to embarrass Xiao Langjun! But Xu Hu is domineering and insisted on charging Xiao Langjun\'s threshold fee. The little one didn\'t dare to confront Xu Hu. He didn\'t dare to offend Xiao Langjun, so the young one did nothing at the time. Afterwards, Xu Hu took out a small portion of the stolen money, but the young one didn\'t take any money! The young one was really helpless, please be careful! "

"My lord, Xu Hu has a wide range of roads. We have many friends on the road, and we are all afraid of him. Today, when he blackmailed Xiao Langjun, the younger one didn\'t agree, but he really didn\'t dare to say anything. Afterwards, he shared a piece with the younger one." The broken silver, the little one is obsessed with accepting it! The little one is guilty!" The man tremblingly took out a broken silver from his pocket and offered it with both hands.

   "The little one is also guilty! The little one also accepted the broken silver rewarded by Xu Hu today..." The yamen servant kneeling on the far right hurriedly took out the broken silver.

  Pei Yi winked, and Master Qin who was standing beside her immediately went to take the broken silver.

  Then, he held the silver in front of Pei Yi and said, "Please take a look at it, sir."

  Pei Yi glanced at it and said: "This is Xiao Langjun\'s money, and I will return it to Xiao Langjun later."

  The three yamen servants who were kneeling on the ground lowered their heads, shaking like quails, for fear that the magistrate would throw them into prison as well.

   "Master Qin, how should the situation of the three of them be handled according to the law?" Pei Yi asked.
