Chapter 1224

The servant girl heard the comment and spoke faster. "Yesterday, after the lady was brought back, the master locked her in the room and beat her until the evening."

The crowd of onlookers gasped again.

Yesterday, Xia Xi, when they came, it was in the late days, three hours away from Xu Shi.

"Yuya, I've treated you well and helped settle your family. Why do you slander me?"

Hearing the voice of the county magistrate, Yu Ya's body trembled uncontrollably. She took a step forward and kowtowed, "please help my family, please help my family“

See jade bud so, the other three servant girls also busy climb up to come forward, also follow kowtow, "please madam also save our family."

Some of them couldn't turn the corner. How did they involve the family of these servant girls?

Xia Xi voice, "you don't worry, one by one slowly said."

A round faced servant girl next to Yu Ya looked up and said eagerly, "my name is Yu Yuan. I was bought into the government after my master became the county magistrate. I signed a living contract for ten years. When I first came to the mansion, the master learned that my family was poor, so he gave me half a year's salary in advance. He also learned that I had a brother who said that he had a relative who was doing business in Linxian county and could introduce my brother to be an apprentice. My family was overjoyed and let my brother go. Who knows, the master threatened me to sign the contract of selling myself into a death contract, and threatened me not to tell about his beating his wife, otherwise, not only would I be sold to the land of fireworks, but my family would never want to see my brother again. "

"So are we."

Yu Ya is in a hurry.

The other two servant girls also told me that either their younger brother or elder brother was introduced by the county magistrate to work, but they never came back these years.

The crowd is a voice of discussion, "unexpectedly there are such things, can really know people know face, not heart."

"Who said no? If these servant girls hadn't said it themselves, we would have thought that the magistrate was a good man. "

"Bah, bah, bah, what a good man, he's just an animal who doesn't do anything."

……

Xia Xi squints, "what you said is the truth?"

Several people kowtow again, "every sentence is true, I dare not deceive you, and..."

Yuyuan hesitated for a moment. "The wife he married before was also killed by him. It's because when she went out to buy rouge, she said two more words to the manager in the rouge shop. After the master came back, he locked her in the room and beat her for several hours."

This time, not only the onlookers, but also the Yamen servants in the lobby also made a pumping sound.

Some of them are old yamen servants. Naturally, they know the death of that lady. At that time, they were talking about a serious illness. They were still wondering how they suddenly got sick and died when they were still well the first day? It turned out that he was killed alive.

"The beast!"

I don't know who scolded in the crowd, which immediately aroused people's anger and hatred, and began to scold one after another.

But the county official struggled to get up from the ground and looked coldly at several servant girls.

Several servant girls didn't dare to look at him and lowered their heads one after another.

"Mr. Xian Cheng, what else do you want to say?"

The county magistrate looked at her, and his face was full of sarcasm. "Just by the words of a few servant girls? If you want to convict me, show me the evidence. "

Xia Xi looked into his eyes and said slowly, "what more evidence do you want? Is it the evidence that you killed your three wives one after another, or the evidence that you killed several county magistrate? "

"Hiss..."

The magistrate took a breath.

The pupil of the county magistrate had an instant dilation.

Xia Xi sees clearly, has determined own guess.

"Magistrate, I'll leave the rest to you."

The magistrate's voice was squeezed out of his throat. He changed his voice and said, "yes."

He had been in Fucheng for more than two years. He had also dealt with the county magistrate and appreciated him. He thought he was a calm and resourceful man. He has been in Pingxi County for so many years. He has managed Pingxi county very well and has no complaints about not being able to raise the profile.

But I don't think he is a murderer. Unexpectedly, unexpectedly

The magistrate was so scared that he gave a cold shiver and didn't dare to think about it any more.

Xia Xi got up, "let's go back to the inn first. If the magistrate needs any help, just go to the Inn and find us."

The magistrate bowed his body rigidly. He was in a cold sweat.

He couldn't imagine what kind of consequences he would bear if the evidence of the county magistrate's murder was found out?

Xia Xi seemed to see his mind and said, "it's a good thing for the magistrate. As long as you find out this matter quickly, it's a great achievement, and it's good for your promotion."

The magistrate, like a man in a daze, suddenly woke up and bent lower. "Thank you for reminding me, madam. Thank you very much."

……

The party went back to the inn.

Xia Xi a foot into the inn, the introduction of people suddenly did not move, all turned around, look at her.

The shopkeeper came out from behind the counter and said, "madam, you're back. I'm neglecting you in the morning. I bought some cakes. I'll compensate you."

Xia Xi Da Fang's acceptance, "thank you for your help."

The shopkeeper's heart fell back. If he knew that these people were more dignified than the magistrate, let alone make breakfast for them, he would not hesitate to make a table of delicacies.

Nodding his head and waist, he sent several people back to the courtyard, and then he came back with sweat all over his head.

The discussion in the inn started again, but they all consciously lowered a lot and guessed their identities one after another.

Hu Zi is carrying cakes and ready to take Xu Jing back to the house.

But Xu Jing happily follows Xia Xi, like a follower: "Lady Xia, how am I doing today?"

Xia Xi thumbs up, "well done."

Xu Jing eyes bone Lu Lu turned a few circles, "that... Can you teach me your unique skill of unlocking?"

Xia Xi's actions last night were so shocking that Xu Jing knelt down and fell to the ground.

In particular, the operation of unlocking the lock should not be too dazzling. It's really magic casting.

He thought happily, as long as he learned, he would be able to walk horizontally in the xungui circle of the same age in Beijing.

Xia Xi's step is tiny, inconceivable ground sees him, "young master Xu, do you want to learn to unlock?"

Xu Jing eyes with desire and expectations, nodded like a chicken pecking rice, "mm-hmm, want to learn, want to learn, I dream to learn."

Xia Xi pondered, "well, I'll teach you when I go back to Pingyang County."

"Thank you, lady Xia, thank you! Thank you! Lady Xia. "

Xu Jing's voice was filled with ecstasy. He was going crazy and was so happy that he jumped in the yard.

From small to large, he was not literate, and he was not martial. He asked the Marquis to compare other people's children and nag him.

If he learns that, huh! Hum! He is the existence that must be looked up to!
