When Sun Ling was "caught", he wasn't too panicked.
After all, he and Huang Jun had been gangsters in Ruyang County for so long and had been to the Yamen many times, so they were quite familiar with the arrest process.
So he also knew that if he was arrested at this point in time... there should be room for mediation.
What time is it now? It's getting dark, and the county magistrate has already finished his dinner and gone to rest. Even if he hadn't rested, he wouldn't have put on his official uniform in the middle of the night and went to court to hear the case.
If nothing else goes wrong, in a situation like Sun Ling's, he would have to be sent to jail for a night, and then he would be arraigned at dawn the next day.
And the buffer time of this one night is very important... Some rich and powerful people can rely on this one night's operation to confuse right and wrong and get away with it.
Having said this, I know that the man's name has already appeared in many people's minds. Yes, Chang Wei in "Nine Levels of Sesame Official" is a good example, although there are many caricature-style exaggerations in that film.
, but some phenomena appear to be correct.
Of course, Sun Ling also knew that it was probably impossible to expect Huang Jun to save him; they said they were friends since childhood, but after all, they were two gangsters.
That is to say, we can only share wealth and honor, but not share adversity.
Sun Ling asked himself, if Huang Jun was arrested today and he ran away, he would not spend money and take risks to rescue Huang Jun.
From this point of view, these two fakes are exactly the opposite of the real double harmony...
Sun Ling and Huang Jun rarely say unpleasant things to each other in normal times, and they always save face for each other, saying hello to me, hello to everyone, but the critical moment is when disaster strikes and we all fly away.
Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai usually slander each other, saying "Sooner or later I will hack you to death" and "I will kill you", but they can still help each other at critical moments.
To sum up, at the moment, Sun Ling puts all his hopes on himself.
He planned to make good use of this night and make two preparations:
First hand, bribe the yamen servants and promise benefits. If the master orders the execution tomorrow when he goes to court, these yamen servants can help him "cover up" a little.
Second hand, think about your confession, clarify your logic, and try to get yourself off the hook or at least get a light sentence.
From Sun Ling's perspective, if he "handled" tonight's matter well, not only would he not be guilty, but he could even be on the path of "acting bravely when he sees justice"; for example... "I helped the county magistrate retrieve the
The property stolen by the thieves was accidentally caught by your government officials, but I was afraid of hurting them, so I came back with them." This kind of rhetoric may not be untrustworthy if you take the time to perfect the details.
He thought quite well. However, as soon as he was taken to the county government office, something unexpected happened to him...
He was not sent to prison as he expected, but was taken to the "back hall" by the guards.
When you try a prisoner, you don't necessarily have to go to court; some cases that are inconvenient for the public to watch in public can be tried in the back.
But this situation is Sun Ling's knowledge blind spot, because he has never been "questioned in the back room" before. The cases committed by ruffians like him and Huang Jun are all escalated together with other similar small cases.
The court has interrogated them one by one. There is no need to ask them to go to the back.
Today, with his hands tied, Sun Ling couldn't help but feel a little nervous as soon as he knelt down in the back hall.
But then he thought again: "Hey? Why did the county magistrate bring me to the back hall? And the trial started all night? I heard the man named 'Master Mei' under the bed say that the money in this bag came from
It was stolen from the county magistrate's house. Could it be...that this was a bribe accepted by the magistrate? The county magistrate himself was afraid that the case would be made public, so he wanted to deal with it quietly like this?"
The more Sun Ling thought about it, the more reasonable he felt that this inference was, which made him more certain; anyway, he had the identity of "Sun Yixie" as a protective shield, and even the county magistrate would not dare to kill him to silence him.
"The best thing is, if it doesn't work out, you can also threaten the other party by saying, "The county magistrate doesn't want to publicize the matter of this money."
While he was kneeling there thinking this, the "county magistrate" came.
But I saw this gentleman, wearing a royal blue satin coat and a turban on his head. He was of average height and build. Judging from his face, this county official was quite young, but the beard on his mouth was not short, even
It looks a bit out of place, as if it is glued on; in addition, this gentleman also has a pair of particularly bright little eyes, which look like "four eyebrows" on his face.
After seeing this, everyone has undoubtedly understood that this county magistrate...is pretended to be Sun Yixie.
The real county magistrate was drinking tea with Mei Chiyang in the room next door. As for the masters and servants who were acting with Sun Yixie, they naturally got the orders from the real magistrate and were here to cooperate.
.
Because Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai had the promise of the two Jinyiwei bosses from "Yunshui", they could "act cheaply" in such a local government office.
The county magistrate here in Zhoukou thought to himself, you are punishing evildoers anyway, and you are not doing anything harmful to the world. Besides, you are doing it in the back hall in the middle of the night, and it will not be spread out... Then it is just for fun, I have the right to watch.
It's a show.
In this way, the drama of Sun Yixie's night trial of "Sun Yixie" began.
Let's talk about Brother Sun. He made a grand entrance, sat down on a chair, and then used his little eyes to scan Sun Ling's body, staring at him until Sun Ling felt uncomfortable all over.
But the "Master" didn't speak, and Sun Ling couldn't speak first. He could only kneel there and occasionally raise his eyes to steal a glance at the "County Master".
"Sir, this is the thief we caught... He will get both the stolen goods and the stolen goods." After Sun Yixie sat down, a police officer pretended to come forward to report.
"Hmm..." Sun Yixue just pondered for a while.
"Master! I am wronged!" Sun Ling raised his head and shouted.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! As a result, before he finished speaking, a pair of shoe soles hit his face.
At this moment, he saw Sun Yixie supporting his right hand on the armrest of the Taishi chair. Using his hand as a fulcrum, he jumped up sideways and kicked forward with his legs together. The soles of his two feet happened to be on Sun Ling's.
face.
In short, how the charterer in "Kung Fu" kicked Huoyun Evil God, Sun Yixie is now kicking Sun Ling.
But Sun Ling is not the Fire Cloud Evil God... The Fire Cloud Evil God was able to reply "Try a little harder, I'll be fine" after being hit like this... Sun Ling was kicked like this, even if he was on his back, he rolled backwards.
, the nose and gums were covered with blood.
While he was still confused, Sun Yixie sat back down, crossed his legs, and said leisurely: "Master, I didn't ask you a question. Who told you to speak without permission? You should be beaten!"
Sun Lingxin said: "Shouldn't I be beaten? You've already finished the beating."
But he only dared to keep this complaint in his heart, and he didn't dare to say it casually anymore. This gentleman is not right now. How can any scholar jump up and kick someone after saying half a sentence like this? Is this Zhoukou gentleman?
Is he a martial arts champion? Or some martial arts master from a nouveau riche family bought an official position and assigned him here?
"I ask a question, and you answer it, do you understand?" After a few seconds, Sun Yixie saw that Sun Ling had been restrained by him, so he raised the corners of his mouth under his fake beard and said with a smile.
"Understood...understood..." Sun Ling knelt down again and nodded repeatedly.
What he was thinking before the trial started, such as "using Sun Yixie's identity to call people" and "threatening the master with money"... were all forgotten by him now; things like this
A local ruffian always bullies the weak with the strength of the many, bullying the weak and fearing the strong. If you are more aggressive than him, you will stun him when you come up, and he will wilt immediately. He may be more cowardly than ordinary people.
Sun Yixie has dealt with more people like this than the fish he has eaten. Not to mention the little Sun Ling, he has a way to deal with a big gangster, but that story will be discussed later and will not be discussed here for the time being.
surface.
"Let me ask you, what is your name? Where do you live? What do you do?" Sun Yixie asked as he picked up a cup of tea on the table and took a sip slowly.
Sun Ling knelt there, hesitated for a moment, and replied: "The villain Sun Yixie, from Hangzhou, is... um... a member of the world."
He said this in vain, and the yamen servant next to him almost laughed when he heard it.
Just you? Are you still a member of the Jianghu? Have you ever seen a member of the Jianghu being kicked in the face by a county magistrate? Are you afraid you met Bao Qingtian pretending to be Li Yuanfang?
"Huh?" Sun Yixie's "huh" made Sun Ling tremble with fear. Unexpectedly, his next sentence was, "What did you say?" He put down the tea cup in his hand and looked at him, "
You are Bo Yuntian, chivalrous and tender-hearted, merciful and compassionate, loyal and courageous, handsome and unrestrained, a jade tree facing the wind, who studies hard and makes progress every day... Sun Yixie, the queen of the Jiangdong Sun Sect?"
Fortunately, Huang Donglai is not here at the moment. If he were, he would probably give up the plan and rush over from next door and shout: "Damn it, I really can't listen anymore. How fucking shameless are you surnamed Sun?"
Not to mention that Huang Dong is here. At this time, those people who cooperated with Brother Sun in the back hall were dumbfounded after hearing this. How can they put gold on their own faces like this? What is the key to the last idiom of "study hard and make progress every day"?
This is the first time we have heard of it.
"Uh..." Sun Ling was stunned after hearing this, but he still replied bravely, "Yes... I am exactly the same."
"Oh..." Sun Yixie nodded, "Then I'll ask you again..."
His next question was very scary.
"In Hangzhou, if you want to eat a plate of West Lake vinegar fish, how many hands will it take from when the fish is picked up by the fishermen to when it is put on the table of a tavern in the city? How much is the approximate gross profit of each hand?
"
After Brother Sun said this, Sun Ling almost instinctively said one word from his mouth: "Ah?"
Sun Yixie's expression was grim: "Ah what? Did you not hear clearly or did you not understand?"
"No, no... I heard..." Sun Ling quickly shook his head and replied hesitantly, "It's just..."
"Just what?" Sun Yixie said, "The Sun Clan in Hangzhou has always had contacts with the imperial court. Even I know it. The young master of the Sun family, Sun Yixie, has been running the fish market in Hangzhou for these years. Could it be that Mr. Sun
You...you've only left Hangzhou for a few months, and you've already forgotten all these things?"
At this time, Sun Ling felt as if he had been fished out of the water, and the cold sweat had almost penetrated the outside of his clothes.
He never expected that, let alone the matter of the money, he would be exposed on the spot for being an impostor after just two sentences...
Once he loses the protection of his identity as "Sun Yixie" and turns back into that ruffian Sun Ling, he may be in trouble tonight.
"Oh! Sir, what is that thing you are asking about?" Otherwise, this unruly man is very clever. In desperation, Sun Ling suddenly became wise and pretended to be suddenly enlightened, "Hey, what I just said was...
...I didn’t understand, because what you said is different from what we say in the industry. You just wanted to ask...how many hands should the fish be taken after catching it, right? This...that...three hands."
He started to make it up, because he suddenly thought that the county magistrate must not know about something like this. What could a scholar know about selling fish? Even if he made up nonsense, it would be difficult for the other party to tell the truth.
In this way, Sun Ling began to make up random things, thinking and talking; although he did not understand the business of the fish market, he still knew how much a plate of fish would cost when it was served to the tavern table. Anyway, it was based on this price.
Let's take a guess.
Sun Yixie listened to his answer that was full of mistakes and laughed secretly in his heart, but on the surface he pretended to be deceived and nodded: "Oh~ I see, it seems that you are really Sun Yixie and Sun Shaoxia..."
He said, "I'm sorry, I'm disrespectful."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! What does playing mean is that you have to give the other person time to breathe.
As the saying goes - can you give me time to sing a song and listen to the story until the end before saying goodbye.
This thing has to have its ups and downs, ups and downs, ups and downs, ups and downs, and ups and downs again... This kind of rhythm constantly puts pressure on the other party, just like water torture. Only by letting the other party take a breath from time to time can it make the other party more painful.
At this moment, Sun Ling thought that he had successfully managed to get through, and his heart suddenly relaxed, and he almost collapsed on the ground. He also smiled with a twitching corner of his mouth, and replied: "My lord, you are too polite, it's just a false reputation."
"Okay, I'll ask you again..." Sun Yixie quickly added, "Why do you have money from my house on you?"
When Sun Ling heard that the question finally came to this point, he quickly replied: "Sir, the common people were walking on the road just now and saw a figure running sneakily with a big baggage. I thought he was acting suspiciously, so I stepped forward to stop him.
, I want to find out.
"I didn't expect... this man couldn't help but immediately drew his knife and violently attempted to harm me. Fortunately, my martial arts skills were not bad. After a hard fight, I wounded him. When he saw that the situation was not good, he dropped the baggage.
He ran away, and then I picked up the baggage and opened it. It was full of money...
"Sir, you know that we knights have always been indifferent to fame and wealth, and it is impossible to be greedy for such ill-gotten gains, so I wanted to take the baggage and send it to the government at that time.
"Unexpectedly, when I walked halfway, I was surrounded by the police officers. Although I knew it was a misunderstanding, I couldn't explain it clearly at the moment. I was afraid of hurting them and causing a bigger misunderstanding, so...
I just let them tie me up and come here."
At first glance, there is really nothing wrong with his words, because there is no evidence for the doubtful parts, and it can neither be proved nor falsified.
"Oh, hehehe..." Sun Yixie also laughed after hearing this, "Come here, please untie Mr. Sun and watch his seat." He paused and continued, "Since that's the case... then we have to have a good chat.
