As a man reined in the horse, the horse raised its hooves, and the group of people came to a stop.
Everyone unanimously rolled up their sleeves to cover their faces. As dust flew by, some people timidly looked towards the visitor.
I saw that these people were all wearing official clothes, with official swords on their waists, and they jumped off the horse with cold expressions on their faces.
The man from the Niu family who just now shouted that no matter who comes to Dahe Village today, he will be beaten out,
At this time, when I saw these people wearing official attire, they didn't dare to let out a fart, they didn't even dare to breathe out.
"Li Zheng?"
Old Man Niu was the closest to Li Zheng, so he was so frightened that he hurriedly asked Li Zheng.
Li Zheng also had a look of horror on his face. He didn't know what these officials and family members who suddenly came were going to do.
If something happens to the court, he should remind himself in advance.
As he looked at it, he inexplicably thought of someone. Could it be that he came to see Liang Sheng?
That boy has a talisman. Thinking of this, the heart that was still hanging just now seemed to drop.
"Are you fighting?"
The leading official glanced at the coachman on the ground who had just gotten up and was covered in blood.
He stared coldly at the men of the Niu family who still held wooden sticks in their hands.
Bang-dang-dang-dang...
The man from the Niu family, who had been so arrogant just now, was so frightened that he threw the wooden stick in his hand to the ground when asked by the officials.
"Master..."
Plop...
A man driving a bullock cart knelt directly on the ground.
"We come here to work from a nearby village. We don't want the integrity of this 'Dahe Village'.
He actually instigated the people in the village to beat us up for no reason, sir, you have to make the decision for us!"
"Master, you have to make the decision for us!..."
Plop...
For a moment, all the coachmen were kneeling on the ground, their bodies and faces covered in blood, which was really pitiful.
However, Li Zheng just coughed lightly,
His body, which had been straight just a moment ago, was now bent like a prawn, and he showed a flattering smile before he even opened his mouth.
"Master Guan, I am the leader of this village. Are you here to find someone?"
When he heard that it was the village official, the official's eyes suddenly lit up and he shouted,
"Yes, I'm here to find someone."
"That's right, he is in the village, I will help you find him,"
As he said this, Li was turning around and scanning the crowd. When he came just now, he clearly saw Liang Sheng standing here, but where was he?
Not seeing Liang Sheng, he fixed his eyes on Xing Rui.
"Silly girl, where is your man? The officials are here to find him, please call your man over quickly..."
Before Li Zheng finished speaking, a big hand snapped...
Patted him on the shoulder.
The leader's voice reached Li Zheng's ears with an extremely cold voice.
"You are the one we are looking for, why don't you take a trip?"
Li Zheng was stunned, his body was obviously a little stiff,
He slowly turned around and looked at the official grabbing him in surprise.
"Master, are you kidding me? What do you want from me?"
"As a village leader, you not only fail to uphold the laws of our court, but you actually dare to gather a crowd to beat innocent people. Come with us?"
Li Zheng was stunned and looked blankly at the men kneeling on the ground.
Then he looked at the men in the Niu family who were too frightened to move.
He hurriedly defended,
"My lord, have you misunderstood? It's the Niu family who are fighting with these people. I'm here to break up the fight. How come I'm ignoring the laws of the court?"
Plop...
When Old Man Niu heard this, he was so frightened that his legs softened and he knelt on the ground.
After living a long life, where has he seen such a battle?
When he saw that Li Zheng was about to throw the blame on himself, he naturally didn't dare.
"Guan Ye, no, this is all what Li Zheng asked us to do.
When we farm land for the villagers, they always get paid. This has been the case every year for the past few years.
I've been alive for a long time, I really didn't lie, Master, you know better, Master..."
Plop...
At first sight, Old Man Niu was kneeling on the ground, and the other Niu family members were also kneeling on the ground, pointing out Li Zheng one after another.
"It was him, the official, it was Li Zheng who asked us to beat us to death, so that no one would dare to come to the village to fight for lives..."
"you?"
At this time, Li Zheng never expected that the Niu family would be so cowardly that they would all turn against him and betray him.
"Let's go?"
As soon as the official left, he unceremoniously dragged Li Zheng by his neck.
"Master, Master, there must be a misunderstanding here, please listen to my explanation, please listen to my explanation..."
"Tie people up and gag them,"
The official threw Li Zheng in his hand to his men, and soon Li Zheng was tied up.
Even his mouth was tightly shut, and he was thrown onto the back of a horse like a dead dog, without even a chance to struggle.
"Take this old man with you,"
"Guan Ye, Guan Ye, everything I said is true. It wasn't me. It was all Li Zheng who asked us to do this..."
"You'd better tell the truth, take him back and make a record, take him with you, and leave."
As soon as he left, the official glanced at the Niu family boy who was kneeling on the ground and was so frightened that he almost peed his pants.
"snort……"
Big Nose snorted, flicked his sleeves, got on his horse, and gave a driving sound.
Just like when they arrived, dust was raised along the way and everyone was frightened, taking Li Zheng and Old Man Niu away.
"Oh……"
The dust disappeared, and finally someone came to his senses and yelled "Ouch".
"Dad, dad, my dad was captured by them, my dad was captured by them..."
At this time, the frightened villagers all calmed down and forgot what they were here for.
He grabbed someone's arm and exclaimed,
"It's over. Li Zheng is really over this time. These people must not be from the county government, otherwise Li Zheng would know them.
What should we do? What should we do in Dahe Village in the future?"
Everyone was panicking, but Xing Rui smiled faintly and said
Let’s just say, these bullock cart drivers came here out of nowhere, they turned out to be heading towards Li Zheng!
Xing Rui looked at the coachman with a white handkerchief around his neck and walked over.
"My man ordered your car yesterday. Come on, follow me to plow the fields."
Xing Rui's words made the coachman stunned for a long time, then he came back to his senses, looked at Xing Rui and said coldly,
"Little woman, can't you see that we have all been beaten like this? We don't want to do this anymore, we don't want to do this anymore."
Xing Rui smiled indifferently,
"Brother, let me see, you are also injured, and I won't be able to bear it if I ask you to stay and work.
In this way, how about you keep your old ox and the plowman on the cart, and we can do the work ourselves, or pay the price you agreed on before?"
The man was stunned, obviously he didn't expect Xing Rui to say that,
I looked around at the brothers who were following me, looking a little excited.
He was about to nod, but someone hurried over and pulled him.
He looked at Xing Rui warily, pulled him to the other side, and whispered a few words. The man raised his head and said coldly to Xing Rui,
"If you can't do it, you'd better find someone else."
