In addition to the opium, a lot of arms were brought in one after another. Finally, a secret room was found in the bedroom and a large number of letters were found. Some of them were written by Sun Ren to the bandits, asking them to
He helped deal with some farmers, and there were more other cases of plundering, bribing officials, and harming good people. Now that the evidence was conclusive, Sun Ren suddenly drooped his head and had to admit to the crime of assassinating the tax supervisor.
When Qiao Yu saw that it was almost dawn, he had Sun Ren and Zhou Heizi arrested. Then he came to Lu Wanqing and said with a smile: "Miss Lu, now the evidence is conclusive. You should have an idea of who is the heinous person."
Got it!"
"Humph, Sun Ren is a bad guy, and you are not a good person either. Your behavior is not legal at all, and the evidence you found cannot be counted. Without a legal process, you will not get a legal result!"
Qiao Yu nodded: "Don't you see that Miss Lu still has some understanding of Western law? But now we are in the Qing Dynasty, and the result is much more important than the process!"
Although Lu Wanqing refused to admit it, she had no confidence in her heart. Judging from the evidence found, Sun Ren was indeed a bully, and there were many murders on him. She only felt that she had been deceived.
Feeling uncomfortable, he lowered his head and said nothing. At this moment, there was a chaotic sound outside Sunjiazhuang, and a group of people rushed in in a panic. The leader was a short and fat official, the local county magistrate Guo Tai.
He heard that a group of troops had entered Sunjiazhuang. He was very close to Sun Ren, so he came to the rescue immediately. As soon as he entered Sunjiazhuang, Guo Tai shouted loudly: "Who dares to embarrass Brother Sun with such a blind eye?"
Don't you want to die? Why don't you let him go quickly?"
Just when Guo Tai was shouting loudly, several cold guns were already pointed at Guo Tai. There were many government officials behind Guo Tai, but these people were all bastards. When they saw that the other party was an elite sergeant, they immediately
He lost his temper and stepped back unconsciously, leaving Guo Tai alone in front.
As soon as Qiao Yu heard that the county magistrate was coming, he thought that he was going to settle accounts with him. Sun Ren did many evil things in collusion with him, and if he wanted to kill chickens and scare monkeys, a mere bully was not enough.
A magistrate was a little shocked when he held a memorial ceremony for the flag, so Qiao Yu had Guo Tai brought to him.
When Guo Tai saw that the other party was a strict regular army, he was immediately a little scared. Logically speaking, he was a county magistrate and belonged to the civil service system, while the other party was a military attache. The two systems could not control him at all. But now that the world is in chaos, he really wants to
Even if he was killed, he had no way to deal with it, so he saluted Qiao Yu repeatedly when he saw him.
"My lord, this official didn't know you were here on errands, so I'm offended. Please don't blame me. I'll get out of here right now!"
"Wait a minute, Magistrate Guo. I have found a few letters from the Sun family now. Take a look!" As he said this, he threw several letters between Guo Tai and Sun Ren in front of him. Guo Tai naturally knew that he had done them all.
Something happened, and cold sweat suddenly flowed down, and the fat all over his body couldn't help trembling.
"Tell me the truth. I will hand you over to Niu Chuanshan and let him convict you according to the law. If you have any luck, I will kill you now. Just say that you were killed by the rebel gang. You can't even spare a whole body. You can see for yourself."
Let’s do it!”
When Guo Tai heard this, he immediately collapsed to the ground, like a dead dog, "Please forgive me, sir. I was forced by Sun Ren, please have mercy!"
"You guys set up the tax card privately by Sun Ren. You took the bulk of it. How come you were forced? If there is such a good thing, you can also force me. I will tell you that the tax supervisor sent by the Chongqing Chamber of Commerce is you."
How dare you act openly and secretly? If it weren't for your secret support, Zhou Heizi wouldn't have been able to successfully assassinate him. Greed of money, dereliction of duty, murder, harming the people, these crimes are enough to cut your head off, take them all away!"...
Immediately, the soldiers tied up Guo Tai, took away Sun Ren and Zhou Heizi, and took him directly to the Dazu County government office. At this time, the people in Dazu County were also alarmed. The county magistrate and the largest landowner Sun Ren were all arrested.
A group of soldiers had been arrested, which was absolutely breaking news. The county government was immediately surrounded, and the people who liked to watch the excitement were no weaker than those of later generations.
Qiao Yu had people search the backyard of the county government office and found a lot of evidence of Guo Tai's crimes. He put all the evidence in front of the people of Dazu, and then asked Guo Tai, Sun Ren, and Zhou Heizi to confess to the crime.
It was also the first time for many people to know that County Magistrate Guo Tai, who was usually five to six people, had done so many immoral things. The crowd suddenly became excited and shouted slogans to kill Guo Tai. At this moment, several people suddenly
The common people suddenly knelt down in front of the yamen, and an old man took the lead and kowtowed to Qiao Yu.
"Sir, please have mercy and let Mr. Sun go. Mr. Sun is a good person!"
When Qiao Yu saw that someone actually begged Sun Ren, he asked his men to bring in a few common people. These few wanted to kowtow, but Qiao Yu quickly stopped him. Qiao Yu would never look bad to ordinary people.
He smiled and asked: "Old sir, why do you want to plead for Sun Ren? Please tell me!"
"Your Majesty, Sun Yuanwai usually builds bridges and repairs roads. Every winter, he also takes the initiative to give up porridge. This is a rare act of kindness. Maybe he has done some wrong things. What should I say? The world is like this. If I don't
I'm afraid he won't be able to live without his conscience, so just spare him!"
Qiao Yu saw that these common people might have benefited from Sun Ren, so he stood up to intercede at this time. It seemed that the common people were still too easy to be deceived. A small favor was enough to make them deeply moved. Qiao Yu turned around and said,
He said to Sun Ren: "Sun Ren, you didn't expect that someone would stand up and plead for you. Don't you feel guilty now? Are you worthy of these simple folks?" Sun Ren naturally knew what Qiao Yu was referring to.
He also buried his face in his chest.
"Old sir, what you said is all right, but what I want to tell you is that everyone has been deceived by Sun Ren. For example, you said that he repaired bridges and roads, and gave up his porridge to save people, but you don't know that it is because of him that you
The salt he usually eats is 10% more expensive than elsewhere. The simple reason is that Sun Ren secretly set up several tax cards and charged 10 cents. From this alone, he would earn tens of thousands more taels in a year, and then spend
Doing some so-called good things for tens of taels, and he, together with Guo Tai and other bad officials, willfully increase your tax burden. When you can't afford it, he will lend you money at extremely high interest in a pretentious manner. Once you can't pay it back,
, your land will belong to him. With this method, his Sun family's land has expanded rapidly and he has gained a good reputation. In addition, if he likes someone's land, he will collude with bandits to secretly kidnap him. He will also be kind.
He kindly offered money to redeem you, but in the end he could only become a tenant of his family. There are countless such things. I have found the correspondence. You can take a look at it. Don't be fooled by his hypocrisy.
The mask deceives!”
These common people were immediately stunned. This kind of thing happens often, but they have never thought about it from another angle. They only thought that Sun Ren was still a good person. Who knew that now that Qiao Yu had exposed this mask, they were filled with anger.
Liang, several young people even punched and kicked him, wanting to kill this harmful smiling tiger. The people outside the yamen were also excited. They didn't expect that this Sun Ren was such a bastard, and it would be a shame to die.
"Dear fellow villagers, Sun Ren and Zhou Heizi have been charged with murder. They have already committed a capital crime. Now they are shot on the spot. The property that the Sun family has robbed will be returned to everyone later. As the county magistrate, Guo Tai is guilty of a deeper crime. I will personally escort him back to Chongqing and hand him over.
Let Master Daotai deal with it, and this dog official must be severely punished!”….
After Qiao Yu gave the explanation, he left people to deal with the Sun family's property, executed Sun Ren and Zhou Heizi on the spot, and then led the army and directly returned to Chongqing, suppressing Guo Tai. The people of Dazu cheered when they saw the two evil-doers. It seemed that
This army did kill harm to the common people, and it also firmly remembered Qiao Yu's name. Among the crowd was Guo Tai's nephew Guo Er, whose kick almost killed him.
I wanted to complain to my uncle, but I didn't know that my uncle had been arrested. The boy was so frightened that he pissed himself and ran out of Dazu County.
"Miss Lu, you've watched all this excitement, why are you still following me?"
"My family is in southern Sichuan. You killed my uncle, and now I don't even have a place to stay. Don't you care?"
Qiao Yu was stunned for a moment. This was also true: "Miss Lu, can you ride a horse?" Lu Wanqing nodded.
"Well, I'll give you a horse to come with us to Chongqing first, and then take you home!"
Lu Wanqing's riding skills were good. She rode steadily and followed Qiao Yu. "Reporter Lu, you are brave enough. Aren't you afraid of being left in the wilderness by me? Why do you still dare to follow us?"
"
"I already know who you are. You have set up many factories in Chongqing and have studied abroad. No one who is doing big things will embarrass our little girl!"
"It seems that you are not simple, you are not an ordinary lady!"
"That's natural!" As he spoke, the team came to a valley with mountains on both sides. Suddenly, Qiao Yu noticed a head flashing behind a rock, and then a black object was thrown over!
