Su Xiaoling was sensible and comforted her, but Mrs. Zhao burst into tears and her heart ached fiercely.
Su Sanlang looked at Zhou Heng and had a lot to say.
Zhou Heng was calm and composed. He showed his mature side to Su Sanlang. He said, "We'll talk about it when we get home."
When the government takes the testimony and records this incident in the book, and when they return home, he will explain clearly and he will be responsible for Su Xiaoling.
What I say today is by no means a temporary weighing measure.
Su Xiaoling glanced at Zhou Heng quietly, with all kinds of thoughts swirling in her heart.
Today, thanks to him.
When the family arrived at the government office, Su Chong, Su Hua, and Zhou Heng all promoted people, but they did not kneel before officials.
Su Sanlang and others bowed slightly.
The yamen officer handed over the testimony he had taken before and showed it to the county magistrate.
Zhang and Yanwu still wanted to complain, but Zhou Heng already said: "Please be aware of this, sir. This person insulted my fiancée's reputation and stole my fiancée's private belongings. His heart is to be punished."
Qi Cheng, the magistrate of Fuya County, immediately did not dare to neglect him and immediately scolded him sternly: "Ms. Zhang, why are you doing this? Why don't you call me here quickly?"
The three masters of science and technology have not yet come to the end of the scientific examination. Who knows where they will go?
If he is offended, in the future they will promote him, and any correction will be enough for him.
Zhang still wanted to bite her, but Yanwu had already seen the situation clearly. He kowtowed and admitted his mistake: "My lord, please forgive me. It's all my fault that I secretly admired Miss Su. That's why I made this big mistake. I did something I shouldn't have done."
thing."
Now that it has become like this, it is no longer within their control. The only thing they can do is admit their mistakes and make their crimes less severe.
It is better to do something wrong because you love too deeply than to do something evil intentionally.
Therefore, Yanwu was prepared to kill this point.
After Yan Wu kowtowed, he continued to confess his guilt with tears streaming down his face: "Sir, I shouldn't have fallen in love with Miss Su.
My mother didn't want to see me losing weight and was afraid that I would be in bad shape, so she resorted to such dirty tricks. We thought that by then Miss Su would have a bad reputation and no one would want her, so I could marry her."
"Sir, the common people regret it. The common people have already realized their mistake. They have realized their mistake. Please let us go, Miss Su. Even if you can't let me go, then please spare my mother. She only made the mistake of loving my son too much."
Already."
Yan Wu looked at Su Xiaoling again, admitting his mistake in pain.
Mrs. Zhang felt terribly uncomfortable, and she immediately kowtowed, kowtowing and pleading: "Please, please spare our mother and son. It's my bad heart. I shouldn't have evil intentions for my son.
Let me take the responsibility for all this, and I came up with everything.”
Zhang understood what Yan Wu meant. If he wanted to be given a lighter punishment, he had to admit his mistake and beg for mercy, and his attitude had to be sincere.
Qi Cheng looked at the Su family.
Whether this case is big or small, it all depends on the Su family's choice.
If the Su family didn't care, he would have warned Zhang and Yanwu and settled the case.
If the Su family cares about them, they should investigate Zhang and Yanwu carefully, and then convict and punish them.
So Qi Cheng didn't say anything.
Su Sanlang looked at Zhang and Yanwu who were now crying and begging for mercy, and felt that he could neither get up nor get down even if he breathed.
His heart was not ruthless enough. Although he could not forgive Zhang and Yan Wu, he felt compassion for them.
Ms. Zhao felt uncomfortable and didn't know what to do. She looked at Su Xiaoling.
Su Xiaoling's expression was calm, and she said coldly: "The love between your mother and son is really touching, and I believe what you said is true."
Listening to Su Xiaoling's words, Zhang and Yanwu both looked happy.
But Su Xiaoling's next words made Zhang and Yanwu freeze with joy on their faces.
Su Xiaoling paused. When Qi Cheng thought she was going to let Yan Wu and the Zhang family go, Su Xiaoling said again: "But one code is one code. The laws of the Zhou Dynasty cannot be trampled on. If you commit a crime, you must be punished to demonstrate the laws of the country."
The justice of the law, if crime has no cost, it will be a violation of the entire world."
"For what Yan Wu and his son did, I hope that I am the first woman to be victimized and the last one. I am the end rather than the beginning. I believe that you are fair and just and will make the most just execution without favoritism."
No one will deliberately add more charges."
After Su Xiaoling finished speaking, she looked at Qi Cheng.
She asked: "Sir, do you think what I said is right?"
Qi Cheng nodded: "Miss Su is right."
This means that we should pursue the case, but we should only discuss the matter and what kind of punishment should be given. We will not let him go, and we will not add insult to injury.
Su Xiaoling made this request, and Su Sanlang and Zhao also agreed.
Everyone agrees with what Su Xiaoling said.
Zhang and Yanwu were obviously dissatisfied with this punishment. Their original intention was to turn this matter into a minor matter.
Being punished is not what they want.
"grown ups……"
Just as Zhang opened her mouth, Zhou Heng interrupted her.
"It is a good thing to know your mistakes and be able to correct them. Only this punishment can show the world. You must always remember that the Zhou Dynasty was a country with strict laws. As long as you commit a crime, you will definitely be punished. With this precedent, it can also make those thoughts
Evil people should give up this idea."
Zhou Henggong cupped his hands and said, blocking Zhang's desire to speak.
Qi Cheng nodded: "What Zhou Juren said is right. Please rest assured that I will punish you severely and never give you mercy lightly."
After being imprisoned for a period of time, he would be driven around the town in a prison cart every day and his crimes would be read out to him.
Zhang and Yanwu were obviously dissatisfied with this result.
But now they have no choice but to defend themselves.
If they say more, Qi Cheng will doubt their true intentions.
"Take them down."
Qi Cheng gave the order.
Mrs. Zhang burst into tears. She was really scared now, but she didn't dare to defend herself, for fear that the charges would be more serious.
She regretted it terribly. If she had known this, she would never have done such a thing.
But who would have known it earlier?
Yan Wu also regretted it. He looked at Su Xiaoling and couldn't help but wonder, if they hadn't deliberately taken advantage of Qiao at that time and had handed over everything sincerely, would there have been a different ending?
It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in the world, and there is no way back.
Qi Cheng raised his hands to Su Chong and others: "Don't worry, I will definitely deal with it impartially."
Su Chong, Su Hua and Zhou Henggong bowed their hands in return.
"Thank you, sir. Our family will go back first. We will leave for Beijing tomorrow. We really can't afford to delay."
Su Hua said gently, Su Chong and Zhou Heng also nodded.
Qi Cheng said to Su Hua and others: "Okay, then you can go back. If there is any news about my case, I will tell your family members."
"Okay, Sir, please deliver the news to Chen Hu's house." Su Hua explained seriously. Once Chen Hu knows the news, he can ask Chen Shi to write a letter to tell him, so that they can know it even from as far away as the capital.
