Zhang Tie frowned, no, we can't wait any longer. We should arrest him as soon as possible. After all, the weapons haven't been made privately yet. If they plead for Bai Banxia, they won't be sentenced to any serious crime.
But the county magistrate cannot show favoritism, I'm afraid Twenty Big Boards won't be able to escape.
It's not a good thing for a girl to have a bad relationship with her. It will be difficult for her to get married in the future.
"Go arrest them!" Zhang Tie gave the order.
Li Jinniu opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say, so he could only follow Zhang Tie into the village.
Wang Taohua had a happy face and hurriedly followed her. She held her head high and had a proud look on her face, as if all the official servants were her followers and she was returning home after winning the imperial examination.
"Master, what is this?" the village chief asked when he saw Zhang Tie and bowed hurriedly.
Zhang Tie and the others were approaching with great ferocity, and with Wang Taohua's look on her face, everyone could see that she was reporting for official service.
"Wang Taohua from your village confessed that Banxia beat Liu's mother-in-law and encouraged Baoshan Village to secretly make weapons. Is this possible?" Zhang Tie said loudly.
Everyone was in an uproar. At first, everyone thought that Wang Taohua was going to help Liu's mother-in-law report to the government, but unexpectedly, she even pulled out a privately made weapon, which is a serious crime of beheading!
The village chief's eyes twitched. He was the one who suggested making a bamboo crossbow, but he didn't think that far ahead.
He quickly glanced at Bai Banxia and said, "Thank you, this girl is so cautious. Otherwise, even if you are not punished today, you may not be able to get away with a slap in the face."
"They just said that it was Bai Banxia who asked everyone to make this weapon. Everyone is about to arrest her." Wang Taohua shouted excitedly.
She looked at Bai Banxia provocatively again, thinking, are you still alive this time?
"I, I..." Bai Banxia looked panicked, as if her words were useless, "Sir, spare my life!"
"Ahem~" The village chief choked on his own saliva. If he hadn't known the inside story earlier, wouldn't he have been scared out of his wits by Banxia girl?
Not far away, Bai Tian almost laughed out loud, "Oh, my daughter is so bad, but bad is cute, isn't it?"
The other people in the village were anxious and rushed to explain to Bai Banxia.
"My lord, don't believe that girl from the Wang family. We just made some bamboo crossbows to protect against wolves. The wolves bit several people in the village last night. Moreover, we did it spontaneously and had nothing to do with Pinellia ternata."
"Yes, although she made the bamboo crossbow, she didn't instigate us. We forced her to hand over the making method."
"Wang Taohua is just jealous of Banxia. Yesterday Banxia fought wolves and rescued people. She is the lucky star of our village. If such a good child is captured, is there any justice?"
"Is the end for the Wang family? They bullied Pinellia ternata before. The Wang family's daughter-in-law gave drugs to harm the patients of Pinellia ternata. Wang Erhu also robbed prisoners and cut off official posts. Now Wang Taohua wants to harm us Pinellia ternata again. The officials must not believe it!"
"..."
Everyone rushed to talk, and the scene was a bit chaotic, but Bai Banxia's eyes really turned red.
Most of the people in the village were simple and kind-hearted. They would rather take the blame on themselves than help her explain. How could she not be moved?
"What kind of enchanting soup has she fed you? She encouraged you to make weapons, and sooner or later the whole village will be killed! She beat Grandma Liu so hard, and is so vicious, she will poison you all and kill you sooner or later!" Wang Taohua did not expect that everyone would help.
When Bai Banxia spoke, he was so angry that his whole body trembled and he screamed.
"Taohua, shut up!" Wang Dahu wanted to stop him, but he couldn't stop this little girl who was loved by her family.
"Why should I shut up? I'm telling the truth! She caused Uncle Liu to lose an arm, and Uncle Liu's whereabouts are unknown. She even broke Grandma Liu's arm, just to silence her. If it hadn't been for her
Bring that broomstick Liu Xiaocao back, how come there are wolves in the village?" Wang Taohua looked ferocious and shouted as if she was crazy.
Bai Banxia's face turned cold. She originally wanted Wang Taohua to jump around more, but Wang Taohua scolded her for not caring, and even said that Xiaocao was a broom star.
She was about to move, but a figure rushed over first.
"Try again, Xiaocao. If your parents can't teach you how to be a human being, I have to teach you how to be a human being!" Mrs. Li slapped Wang Taohua, "You have a vicious mind, and you want to poison the whole village.
Is this what you think?"
Bai Banxia was dumbfounded, what's going on? Why has the aunt become so violent?
"What's wrong with a child as young as Xiaocao? Wang Taohua, you really have a rotten heart." Zhang Lingzhi also rushed over to help, fearing that Li wouldn't be able to defeat him alone.
However, Wang Taohua was a tough-tempered person. The moment she was slapped by Mrs. Li, she was stunned. Then she looked around and no one was helping her, and she burst into tears.
"Aunt, aunt, don't hit me. If you have something to say, talk to me." Wang Dahu hurriedly stopped and advised.
Wang Taohua covered her face and screamed: "Master, if you see her beating someone, arrest her quickly."
"Okay, stop it!" the village chief said, and then explained to Zhang Tie and the others what happened last night in a few words.
After Li Jinniu heard that Bai Banxia went to the mountain to rescue the thrown grass, he cast an admiring look at her, but when he thought of the wolves on the mountain yesterday, Li Jinniu was frightened again.
"It is retribution for the two sons of the Liu family to suffer from wolves." Zhang Tie said bluntly.
It's hard to say anything in a village, but the village chief agrees in his heart. How can he lie about a child's death and secretly throw it into a mountain if it's a human life?
"In order to save Liu San last night, several people were injured. When Banxia was treating Saturday, the Liu family's mother-in-law went crazy and attacked suddenly, causing Saturday to bleed profusely and her legs almost collapsed. Banxia was so angry that she
Taught her a lesson." The village chief continued, "If I weren't old, I would have to do it myself."
Others also agreed, proving that what the village chief said was true.
Zhang Tie looked at Wang Taohua, "Everyone in the village knows something. You came here to play drums and complain, but your family didn't teach you the rules?"
Wang Dahu's face turned red. In this moment, several people said openly and secretly that the elders of the Wang family were not good enough and had failed to educate their children well.
"Hurry up and admit your mistake to me, sir, and stop fooling around." He took Wang Taohua's arm and reminded him in a low voice.
Unexpectedly, Wang Taohua jumped up, threw him away, and said, "Even so, she still encouraged the villagers to secretly make weapons. Does the official want to help her get away with it?"
"How presumptuous!" Li Jinniu shouted sharply, "Official officials don't tolerate your irresponsible remarks when doing things!"
Zhang Tie's face was also very dark. If it weren't for a girl in front of him, he would have wanted to teach her how to behave.
The village chief gave Wang Taohua a cold look, as if he was looking at a fool. No, it didn't look like, this child was just a big fool and there was no cure.
"Master, let me show you this." He took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Zhang Tie.
When Zhang Tie saw the words clearly, his originally dark face relaxed, and the corners of his tightly pursed lips also raised a bit.
Li Jinniu hurriedly came over to take a look, and instantly breathed a sigh of relief. He turned to look at Bai Banxia and smiled.
Girl Banxia pretended to be scared just now, she was so naughty.
"What is it?" Wang Taohua felt something was wrong, but she was illiterate. She couldn't help but look at Bai Banxia, but saw the sarcastic smile on the corner of Bai Banxia's mouth.
