Chapter 82 Lang'er, please keep an eye on me
"Don't be like this, don't be like this, calm down, calm down!" Sun Ke came up to smooth things over and said quickly: "Brother Miao loves his son very much, this is understandable, it's understandable!"
Liang Wanrong glanced at Sun Ke who came up to smooth things over: "I understand him, who understands me?"
"Hmm? Sun Ke!"
Sun Ke broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this, and he forced a smile on his face: "Look, how does he do it? Are you satisfied?"
"I want his head, didn't you hear me?" Liang Wanrong said coldly.
She's not joking, she's serious!
"No, no, no, please spare Brother Miao this time. As long as he doesn't die, we can do anything, right, Brother Miao?"
Sun Ke wiped the sweat from his forehead, patted Miao Yunfei on the shoulder and spoke, while winking at Miao Yunfei.
Miao Yunfei took a deep breath and said, "I was reckless. Please forgive me this time!" As he said that, he bowed and saluted, his teeth almost breaking.
"You see, Brother Miao also knows that he is wrong. Will you forgive him this time?" Sun Ke said with a smile on his face .
Liang Wanrong nodded: "Okay!"
When Sun Ke heard this, he felt as if he had been pardoned in a dream. Just as he was about to speak, Liang Wanrong said, "Let me search his house too. This matter will be over just like that!"
Sun Ke was stunned, then looked at Miao Yunfei. Miao Yunfei nodded and said through gritted teeth, "Okay, as long as you are willing!" After that, he turned around and walked out, followed by a dozen guards.
"Lang'er, help mother keep an eye on things!" Liang Wanrong hugged her shoulders and looked at Shen Lang who was sitting in the hall.
"Okay, mother!" Shen Lang nodded quickly, stood up from the chair, waved his hand and took a dozen servants to follow Miao Yunfei, and went over there in a menacing manner.
In Baiyun City late at night, cold winds were blowing everywhere, making people shiver. Miao Yi was only wearing a robe, so he was shivering from the cold and his nose was running.
With a "creak", the door of the bungalow was opened. Shen Lang walked in and looked at Miao Yi who was tied up like a dumpling.
He couldn't help but smile, waved his hand, put a sack on Miao Yi, and several servants carried Miao Yunfei away from the bungalow. This was a remote area in Baiyun City. There were only a few dilapidated bungalows here and it was deserted. It was a good place to hide!
"What do you want to do?"
After a bumpy ride, Miao Yi was brought back to the Shen family's firewood room. The servant took the sack off Miao Yi's body and removed the rag from his mouth. Miao Yi then spoke weakly.
"I've already told you that I just want you to do me a favor!" Shen Lang sat on the chair and spoke to Miao Yi.
"As long as you let me go, I'll do anything!" Miao Yi was so weak that he leaned his head on the hay on the ground, looking at Shen Lang weakly in his eyes.
"The favor is, you stay here, and when everything is over, I will let you go back!" Shen Lang said with a smile: "But don't worry, I won't hurt you!"
Miao Yi was stunned, staring at Shen Lang and was about to speak, but Shen Lang blocked his mouth again with a rag, and he could only whimper.
After doing all this, Shen Lang looked at the servant beside him and said, "Take good care of him. Don't let him starve to death!"
"Yes, young master!" the servant said with a bow.
"Um!"
Shen Lang nodded, left the woodshed, stood at the door, looked at the bright moon hanging high in the sky, stretched, twisted his neck, and went back to sleep.
At dawn, the first ray of sunlight broke through the curtain of darkness and illuminated Baiyun City.
There were more and more pedestrians and hawkers on the street, and the silent night was replaced by a bustling day.
"Have you heard? That Mr. Xiao is not a truly kind person. He actually did a beastly thing to insult a young girl!" A man with a pointed chin and monkey cheeks was sitting in the teahouse and spoke in a low voice.
"How is it possible? You are just spreading rumors. Mr. Xiao is a truly kind person. How could he do such a thing as you said?" The fat man next to him took a sip of tea and spoke.
"How is it impossible? I was in court yesterday and the six girls cried their hearts out. How could they lie?" The sharp-nosed and monkey-faced man patted his chest and said, "How can a woman dare to speak so treacherously?"
"Really!" the chubby man exclaimed in surprise.
"It's absolutely true. The court will be held at the Judicial Office this morning!" The man with a pointed chin and monkey cheeks said, "When the time comes, we will know exactly what is going on!"
As he spoke, the man with a pointed face and monkey cheeks sighed: "I didn't expect Mr. Xiao Shanren to be such a sanctimonious person!"
"I don't believe it, I want to go and see!"
…
"master!"
Xiao Daoyun was having breakfast at this time, but he saw that the housekeeper looked a little anxious. He put down his chopsticks and asked, "Why are you so flustered so early in the morning?"
The housekeeper looked up at Xiao Daoyun and seemed to be hesitant to speak. Finally, he slapped his thigh and said, "Master, the news has spread outside!"
"It has spread outside? What is it?" Xiao Daoyun was a little surprised, then he suddenly realized and said, "Could it be about the six women?"
"Yes!" The butler nodded.
"hehe!"
Xiao Daoyun smiled and waved his hand: "Don't pay attention to it. No one will believe such rumors!"
"But sir, now is a critical moment. The election will be held tomorrow. I'm afraid it will affect the votes!" The housekeeper said worriedly: "Sir, why don't you take some preventive measures? Even if it won't affect your election, it will be a good thing to dispel the misunderstanding of you by the people!"
After hearing this, Xiao Daoyun pondered for a moment, stood up from the chair and said, "Okay!" Then he went back to his room, changed his clothes, and asked the butler to prepare the carriage.
"The judicial office!"
"Yes, sir!"
…
The judicial office...
Lord Wang had already beaten the drum to open the court. The yamen runners were standing in line on both sides. Kneeling in the hall were six women and their families, including the elderly, children, and young men. There was grief and anger on their faces. These were the families of the six women, either grandfathers, younger brothers, or husbands. The gate of the yamen was filled with ordinary people from Baiyun City, who were blocking the door in three layers inside and outside to listen to the trial.
This was a major event that shocked the entire Baiyun City. The name of Mr. Xiao Daoyun Xiao had been well known in Baiyun City for more than ten years, and he had always been the image of a true Buddha and a true Bodhisattva in people's hearts.
Now someone is beating the drum to protest against injustice, and such a shocking scandal has been exposed, which makes it difficult for them to accept it for a while.
Could it be that Xiao Daoyun is really a hypocritical beast?
Some are skeptical, some believe it, and some even sneer at it with disdain.
No matter what the ending is, it will reveal what kind of person Xiao Daoyun is!
With a "bang", Lord Wang slammed the gavel and asked, "Those kneeling below the stage, what grievances have you suffered? Tell us quickly!"
Although he already knew their confessions, he still asked the six of them to recount them so that the people listening to the trial at the door could hear them.
"I, Guo Rong, have been wronged!" Guo Rong knelt on the ground. At this time, she had changed into a long robe and her face looked better than yesterday.
But he was still very tired and scared. After reporting to Lord Wang, he began to report word for word, which was exactly the same as what he said yesterday!
Then came the second, third, and so on until the sixth woman finished her statements, and everything was exactly the same as the confession she signed yesterday, without any deviation.
"Emma, is Mr. Xiao really a beast?"
