TSBFL Chapter 120.2
Chapter 120.2: 對薄公堂
[The Law Court]
Chen Xing stared at the man, pondering whether the county magistrate found the wrong person, or he himself did not know when he offended someone.
But not yet waiting for Chen Xing to think out a one, two, and three. The middle-aged man looked straight in their direction, after flashing his eyes on Chen Xing’s body, he soon moved to Gu Lang. Moreover, he looked up and down on Gu Lang’s body, as if he was confirming something.
Finally, the middle-aged man seemed to recognize him and smiled at him, saying with a bit of irony in his tone, “It’s been a long time, I thought I would never see you again, but I didn’t expect to see you in this situation.”
Gu Lang looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, who seemed to be wearing a mask, and even his smile was a bit mean. He said softly, “Long time no see, Uncle Zhao, I also didn’t think that we would see each other again in such a situation.”
The middle-aged man looked at Gu Lang’s face, which was slightly pale, and suddenly laughed twice in a dark, ironic tone, “Yes ah, I used to think that you’re a smart kid, and now it seems to be true.”
Gu Lang smiled at him and did not continue to take his words.
The middle-aged man glanced at him and closed his mouth tightly, with no intention of opening his mouth again.
Looking at all the people who had arrived, the County Magistrate patted the wooden block in his hand, and asked Zhao Lao Ye who was down below, “I am Zhao Yuan of the Zhao Family.”
“Yes.” The middle-aged man puffed out his chest, and even though his clothes were a little dirty, he still looked like a dignified and inviolable man at the moment.
“Zhao Yuan, someone has accused you of bribing someone to murder and hurt someone some time ago, can you plead guilty?”
Master Zhao’s eyes flickered, and then he revealed an expression of shock and dismay, and his tone even carried a bit of fear, “A Just and incorruptible official, are you mistaken? I’m just an ordinary businessman, how could I possibly have done something like buying a murderer and injuring a person!”
Zhao Lao Ye’s words had ups and downs, yin and yang, and if people didn’t know the truth, they would have thought that the Country Magistrate had really wronged him, and had put some groundless charges on him, to the extent he protested against an injustice for himself.
The County Magistrate was obviously not fooled by him, he slapped the wooden block in his hand, pointing at Zhao Lao Ye and said without ceremony: “Zhao Yuan, you have to be clear about where you are now, the public court can not allow you to lie. If you have lied, I will punish you severely when your fault is proved.”
Hearing the county magistrate’s words, Zhao Lao Ye’s eyes rolled and he immediately shouted at him, “Just Official, I’m innocent! I’m a businessman, how dare I do something like buy and kill people, and how dare I lie in front of you? Since I have not done these things, I naturally cannot admit it.”
As if he had already expected this reaction from Master Zhao, the County Magistrate nodded his head, his tone a little sarcastic, “Since this official dares to say this, I naturally have evidence. If you don’t admit it now, I’ll let you see who actually prosecuted you, and also made you defeated.”
Thinking of the things that his inner circle came back to tell him today, Zhao Lao Ye’s heart thumped, and he had a vague bad feeling, which became stronger and stronger after seeing the group of men who were brought up. But he knew he couldn’t show his cowardice at such a time, so he forced himself to endure it and did his best to keep his composure.
But compared to the panic of Zhao Lao Ye, Chen Xing, who was a little confused from the beginning, looked at the several men who came in, and only had the impulse to rush over and punch them a few times.
If it is not these few bastards ambushing them, Gu Lang will not lie for so long, he will not fear for so long too, everything is their fault, if they did not do those things, they will not cause so much trouble.
Chen Xing tightened his fists, trying to restrain himself from rushing over to hit them. He did not find that the several men’s behavior were somehow strange, especially when he saw Gu Lang, his expression was somewhat timid, like seeing horror things.
Chen Xing only knows that these few attacked him and Gu Lang, but do not know who instructed them to do these things.
The county magistrate, however, not only knew what they did, but also asked from their mouths who ordered them, so after seeing them come up, he hit the wooden block in his hands, then looked at a few people as he sternly said: “You guys see, the man in the court, is he the person who hired you to commit violence?”
Several men looked in the direction the county magistrate pointed, and were met with the gaze of Old Master Zhao as he looked at them in a shady and merciless manner, which instantly startled them.
A young man standing at the very front stared at Old Master Zhao for half a day, and finally, after half a day of being entangled, raised his eyes towards the County Magistrate above him and said, “County Magistrate, this man, it seems like he’s not the one that we’ve confronted.”
As soon as this man’s words left his mouth, Gu Lang’s eyes narrowed, suddenly gaining a dangerous aura.
Just when the county magistrate wanted to say something more, he suddenly heard a huge clamor from outside, followed by a group of people coming in towards the government office.
