Chapter 104.3: 抓捕
[Arrest]
Madam Chen frowned, and the big maid beside her immediately scolded, “You, this maid, who taught you manners, and what’s not good enough to let you yell and make a big fuss here?!”
That maid’s face was full of anxiety. At this time, as if she did not care about everything anymore, she only looked at Mrs Chen and said loudly: “Madam, just now, I do not know what happened, I suddenly ran into a group of officials, they indiscriminately took the Young Lady away.”
“What did you say!?” Mrs Chen couldn’t care less about maintaining the reserve of a great madam and stood up from where she was doing, looking at the maid in front of her with round eyes, and said irritably and impatiently, “How dare they! Why didn’t the other people in the mansion stop them?”
“That group of officials are holding the magistrate’s personally written orders (or instruction), saying that anyone in the residence who dares to stop them will be treated as accomplices.”
“Trash, all good-for-nothing!” Mrs Chen was already so angry that she couldn’t speak incoherently, but then she forced herself to calm down, she looked at the elder woman servant beside her and commanded, “Have someone notify Master to prepare a carriage for me, I’m going to change my clothes and go to Yamen to find out why they’re taking my daughter away. If this ruins my daughter’s reputation, I’ll see how they are going to compensate.”
The grandmother answered and went down, not daring to say any more words.
Mrs Chen walked towards the dressing room at the same time, while walking, she thought about the reason why Chen Ling Er was taken away by the local authorities, suddenly her mind flashed back to the words of doorkeeper (an old woman servant who work as doorkeeper) from a few days ago, ‘Miss went out today and came back late, and when she came back, her skirt was dirty, and I didn’t know what she has done outside.’
Recalling this, Mrs Chen’s heart thumped, she had a few not so good premonitions.
Chen Xing did not expect the speed of the local government so fast, after Gu Lang drummed up their voice grievances or complain of unfairness, explained the reason, and showed their own evidence, the government sent people to Chen Ling Er to arrest her, and notify them, these victim’s family members to go to Yamen offices to watch the interrogation.
Chen Xing agreed without saying a word, and hurriedly handed over the business of the shop to Qiu Wu, and then took Qiu Jiu, together went towards the court.
When they arrived at the court, they found that apart from Gu Lang, who stood very upright and attracted a lot of attention, Madam Chen and the old master Chen were also here.
When Mrs Chen saw Chen Xing come in, her eyes looked like they were poisoned, as if she hated to pounce on him and eat him. But it was unknown what she was afraid of, she just glared at him from afar and didn’t do anything else.
Chen Xing was startled by her sinister look, then silently moved to Gu Lang’s side and whispered, “Why did they come?”
Although Chen Xing this word ‘they’ did not say it clearly, but obviously Gu Lang also guessed, he lightly swept a glance at that side of them who was glaring angry at them. He hooked the corner of his lips, apparently in a good mood and said: “It’s parent’s fault if their children did something wrong (Because parents are the first teacher of their children) and now that Chen Ling Er has done this kind of thing, it’s also normal for them to come here. ”
Chen Xing felt that what Gu Lang said was reasonable, followed by nodding his head, he then thought of today’s target of criticism, his heart somehow complicated. However, soon, he thought of the deeds they had collected about Chen Ling Er, and immediately felt no sympathy for her.
“Yes.”
Just when Chen Xing indulged in flights of fancy, the county magistrate walked in from the back, glanced at the people under the hall, slapped a wooden block used by a magistrate to strike the table in calling for attention or order and shouted: “The plaintiff and the defendant’s family members are here, now bring the defendant Chen Ling Er up.”
Only a few hours ago, Chen Ling Er’s shocked expression had not been put down, at this time her face was pale; however, when she saw Gu Lang and Chen Xing beside him, all suddenly vanished from the face of the earth. Even though she was pulled by the officials, he still wanted to pounce on them, her cheeks flushed red with excitement as she angrily said, “Why you guys doing this to me?”
Gu Lang looked at the frantic Chen Ling Er, the expression on his face did not change in any way, he just softly said, “Don’t you know why?”
Chen Ling Er froze at once.
