Chapter 170: Imprisoned

Magistrate Ma said: "Okay, okay, let's get down to business..."

He immediately looked confused.

What's going on?

He glanced at Gu Zhan cautiously: "This...plaintiff, what are you suing for?"

Gu Zhan said: "I'm going to accuse this lady of Shuizhubu of intending to cheat on my young lady."

Aunt Shui has been confused by Magistrate Ma's change of attitude. She doesn't understand why Magistrate Ma, who usually has great authority, seems to be a different person now.

He is obviously just a servant!

He is also the servant of the down-and-out daughter of a poor scholar! What is there to be afraid of?

She couldn't understand, she was going to make trouble!

"Lord County Magistrate, they are talking nonsense! This Shui Linglong is the daughter of my husband's eldest brother. She left Tianhai City with him more than ten years ago. He passed away not long ago. I saw that she was all alone, so I wanted to take her away.

What kind of evil intention is it to take her home to live with her?"

Leng Lanzhi sneered: "You didn't mention a word about the divorce!"

"What are you talking about? There is no such thing! My husband respects his eldest brother the most. The first thing he thinks about after becoming the chief registrar is to let his eldest brother live a good life. How could he possibly break up the relationship?"

Leng Lanzhi sneered: "Master Ma, the divorce document was sealed in the county government office. As long as we find it, everything will be revealed."

The reason for the dissolution of marriage is stated in the divorce document. As long as the document is taken out, everyone will know how ruthless and unjust the Shui family is. Not only did they squeeze the value of Shui Wentao's life, they also forced his wife to death and abused her.

My daughter!

It's a pity that she has borrowed Shui Linglong's identity and cannot reveal what happened to Shui Wentao. Otherwise, the entire Tianhai City will know how miserable this family of three was at the hands of the Shui family's white-eyed wolves!

After Aunt Shui heard what Leng Lanzhi said, her reaction became more intense: "There is no document at all!"

She suddenly opened her voice and wailed loudly: "Oh God! What evil has our Shui family done to give birth to such a cruel and cruel niece! I was worried that she would not be well, so I wanted to take him home to take care of her.

, but not only does she not appreciate it, she also slanders my Shui family!

Woohoo, brother! Look at the wonderful daughter you gave birth to!

What you cared about most during your lifetime was your old mother and our relatives at home. If you are alive in heaven and see your biological daughter framed us like this, you must seek justice for us!"

Many people had gathered outside the lobby to watch. Hearing Aunt Shui cry so miserably, they couldn't help but feel sympathy, and they all cast doubtful looks at Leng Lanzhi: "I don't think what Mrs. Shui said is false.

"

"Yes, what Shui Linglong said is full of contradictions. After all, if the boss of the Shui family really controls the entire Shui family, then how could the family force his wife to death and abuse his children if he is too late to thank him?

, and break off the relationship with him?"

The chaotic discussion was not controlled, and everyone in the lobby heard it.

Aunt Shui looked proud.

Magistrate Ma was a little frightened and looked at the expressions of Leng Lanzhi and Gu Zhan from time to time.

Of course, it was mainly Leng Lanzhi's expression, after all, Gu Zhan was wearing a mask.

However, even though Leng Lanzhi was not wearing a mask, Magistrate Ma couldn't figure it out because Leng Lanzhi's expression was calm and there was no trace of panic.

About two-quarters of an hour later, a government official came back with a document and reported: "Your Excellency, the county magistrate, the divorce document has been found!"

Aunt Shui's determined expression froze, as if struck by lightning, and she asked in a broken voice: "How is that possible?!"

The reaction of the onlookers became more and more intense.

Magistrate Ma asked someone to submit the document, and after verifying it carefully, he nodded: "Yes, this document is true. Shui Wentao was indeed forced to death by his biological mother, brother and sister, and his only wife.

My daughter was abused by her relatives, so she broke off the relationship in anger."

People in this era attach great importance to family affection and filial piety. Without a very good reason, it is absolutely impossible for children to take the initiative to break away from their parents, otherwise it will be a crime of treason.

However, since the previous county magistrate approved the divorce, it means that the people of the Shui family, especially Mrs. Shui, did indeed go too far towards the eldest son.

He frowned and looked at Aunt Shui: "Mrs. Shui Chen, your Shui family clearly broke off the relationship with Shui Wentao and his daughter twelve years ago, why are you denying it now? Today, you are still making a big deal out of trouble for Miss Shui, trying to put her away.

She was forced to take her back to the Shui family, what exactly do you want?"

Second Aunt Shui was dumbfounded and panicked.

She was so confused that she spoke indiscriminately: "What does it mean to take her home by force? I just see her as an orphan and feel very pitiful, so I want to take her home to take care of her, can't I? Without our Shui family, she would be an orphan."

How do you live outside?"

Gu Zhan sneered: "Twelve years ago, you didn't have any affection for your niece who was only four years old, and you beat and scolded her. Now, twelve years later, the relationship between you is even worse than that of strangers.

Why don't you say you want to take care of her...who would believe it?"

The people who were watching were stunned by this reversal. When they realized that they had been deceived, everyone was very angry: "We don't believe it anyway!"

"She must have bad intentions!"

Gu Zhan glanced at Magistrate Ma lightly: "This person has ulterior motives. If my young lady hadn't been alert enough and not followed her to Shui's house, she would have been plotted by now.

I hope Magistrate Ma can find out what this person wants to do to my young lady as soon as possible, and if it reaches a level that is enough to convict him, he must not tolerate it."

Magistrate Ma nodded repeatedly: "It should! It should!"

Then he was shocked: "Shui Chen is suspected of abducting and selling a good girl. We will temporarily hold her in custody. This county magistrate will interrogate her!"

Aunt Shui was so frightened.

After she realized what she was doing, she quickly complained.

Unfortunately, Magistrate Ma didn't listen to her bastard chanting sutras at all, and resolutely had her taken away.

After being taken away, Aunt Shui had no chance of getting out.

After all, the charge of suspected human trafficking can be serious or minor. As long as you are convicted in this direction, it is possible to get a sentence of one or two years at the least, or ten or eight years at the worst.

This time the Shui family lost both their wife and their troops.

For a long time to come, the Shui family will become the talk of the town.

After settling the case, Magistrate Ma wanted to come forward and talk to Leng Lanzhi and the others.

Suddenly, a government official hurriedly ran in and reported: "Your Excellency, the County Magistrate and the Minister are already ten miles away and will be arriving at the county seat soon!"

"What!?" Magistrate Ma straightened his back instantly: "Hurry! Come with me to greet Lord Shangshu!"

Leng Lanzhi and Gu Zhan looked at each other and tacitly disappeared into the crowd.

This pool of muddy water is finally going to be stirred up again.
