Chapter 21

After receiving the news, Magistrate Gu and County Magistrate Cheng ordered Meng Du to bring twenty archers and rushed to the restaurant next to the county government.

Ma Meng saw it in the restaurant and said strangely: "Hey, no one in the city today is committing crimes, why is there such a big situation?"

The prostitute next to him said, "There are all kinds of people in the dock. Maybe someone committed a crime, who can tell me clearly."

Ma Meng shook his head repeatedly: "This is my territory. Whoever is committing a crime here? How dare you not tell me first."

After saying that, he thought it was not good, and suddenly stood up and said, "Are you here to get mine? Oh, go back first!"

At this moment, Meng Dutou had already brought his people to the entrance of the restaurant and whispered loudly: "Ma Meng, I have seen you, be bound, don't hide and show your ugliness, everyone is not good-looking! If you run away, it will ruin my food and clothing, and I will never spare you!"

Hearing this, he saw the magistrate Gu and Cheng County Wei bowing to Du Zhongxiao in the tea shop. Ma Meng already knew what was going on. He said angrily: "The geese are all day long, and they are blinded by the geese! Forget it, since that guy is prepared, he can only recognize this bad luck!"

After saying that, he leaned out of the window and said aloud: "Mengdu Head, I climbed up the wall from the prison, I just drank two glasses of wine. Why is there such a big situation? I just follow me, why do I need so many people!"

Meng Du said, "It's good if you know it! I've surrounded this place, and you can't get out of it. Be obedient and wait for the magistrate to fall! Ma Meng, you are willing to die yourself, don't implicate others!"

Ma Meng said, "Everyone is at ease, and each person is responsible for doing things. Wait a moment, I made money from the owner and I came down."

Du Zhongxiao watched coldly and didn't say anything.

County Magistrate Gu said, "It turns out that this thief came out of the prison and dared to drink in the street. He really didn't know how to live or die. After he caught him, he would definitely be responsible for the prison and let them take more attention in the future."

County Wei Cheng Lianlian said that he was in charge of prison. He was in charge of such a thing. If something happened, he was blind and hated him to death.

Du Zhongxiao sighed and said, "The prisoner naturally has to be responsible for the heavy responsibility, but this thief escaped from prison in the daytime and was unscrupulous in the county town. He was a lawless person and should be responsible for it. County Magistrate Cheng, it seems that he is not easy to lock up. In order to prevent him from escaping in the future, it is better to beat him up and put on shackles again. Wouldn't it be safe?"

County Magistrate Gu nodded repeatedly: "It's better to break your legs, it's all over!"

County Magistrate Cheng was shocked and hurriedly said, "County magistrate, you can never use extrajudicial punishment!"

Magistrate Gu was so angry that he didn't say anything. It seemed that he was a little unwilling to stop Ma Meng's leg. He was a Beijing official, and he was taller than Du Zhongxiao in terms of official rank. Du Zhongxiao has always been very polite to him, but he didn't expect that he would be so ugly today.

Du Zhongxiao just watched coldly and didn't speak. He climbed over the wall from the cell, and Du Zhongxiao didn't believe it. He could be sure that Ma Meng was secretly released by the public official in the cell. But as long as Ma Meng took it down by himself, there would be no evidence. What can you do? This is what Meng Du said just now that he should not implicate others. These people also have their own principles of conduct.

In the jails of prefectures and counties, Du Zhongxiao's previous life, are the detention centers of the Public Security Bureau, not places where they serve their sentences. Such places are not strictly managed, and there are even many places where they rent private houses directly. The prisoners escaped and ate and did not escape, and they were completely punished without any scruples.

Poor Magistrate Gu couldn't see through these flower heads, but he was just angry there and couldn't help but instruct County Ma Wei to punish the prison and Ma Meng.

After a while, Ma Meng got off the restaurant, Meng Du took the archer and took it to Du Zhongxiao and Magistrate Gu.

Looking at Du Zhongxiao, Ma Meng smiled and said with a high smile: "It's a small person who is so clumsy. I didn't see the official here. I'm going to suffer this time."

Du Zhongxiao said to Meng Du calmly: "The woman who drank with the prisoners in the restaurant also took it together. This guy came out of the prison and met this woman. Who knows why? This person is born with a thief and has to be careful. He took the woman and asked in detail what she said to the thief and why she had gathered."

Meng Du responded with his head crossed his hands and turned around and left.

Ma Meng secretly cried in his heart that the fireworks woman could not bear the interrogation and would definitely say everything he said. She was a minor crime, but because of the arrangement of Du Zhongxiao, she didn't know what the result was. The official and the magistrate Gu were already angry and suffocated. When he heard this, he would even peel off Ma Meng if he didn't beat him to death.

Thinking of this, Ma Meng couldn't help but have a cold war and said loudly: "That's just a sister who sang the song. I am a little drunk and I'm so frustrated to find him to sing the song. Officials, if you commit a small crime, why bother others? Ask everywhere, who doesn't know that Sister Miao is singing in this area!"

Du Zhongxiao said coldly: "You thieves can't be judged by reason. You are just a tit man, but you have countless wealth and have raised many idle people. You can get caught in prison, and you can climb over the wall and openly hold prostitutes to drink. How could that woman know that she is not a powerful person?"

To make a difference in politics, Du Zhongxiao cherishes his reputation, always acts in a regular manner, and does not want to use external punishment. Otherwise, he will be happy for a while, and he will leave a handle for his political enemies. He will be brought up to talk about it at any time. Therefore, when dealing with Ma Meng, Du Zhongxiao has always acted according to the law and the usual rules. Even if he is depressed for a while, he will spend a lot of time and energy, and he will do whatever he wants. But Du Zhongxiao is not a nerd, and knows that the way to deal with such villains is more effective. If he doesn't do it, others will do it.

After sitting in the tea shop with Han Yueniang for so long, Du Zhongxiao had long seen that Ma Meng recognized him. He saw that he was still swaggeringly drinking. Just thinking about it casually knew that this guy would definitely not say anything good. He didn't want to hear this, but he asked them to County Magistrate Gu to listen to it.

Ma Meng didn't know whether Du Zhongxiao really thought Miao Siniang was a thief accomplice, or took advantage of the problem, but knew that once she arranged Du Zhongxiao's words, it would be a big disaster. She had no evidence of her illegal crimes, and at most she suffered some flesh and blood. Anyway, there was one of the county's public officials, and nothing big happened. But once these officials angered and used extra-law to punish them, it was hard to say.

Mengdu led his men to sing Miao Siniang, who was singing, came out of the restaurant, came to Du Zhongxiao, and bowed to him.

Du Zhongxiao told County Magistrate Gu: "The magistrate, the prisoner came out of the prison cell of the county and was interrogated from the county. This thief is extremely cunning and must be investigated. It is precisely because of such a scammer that the place cannot be peaceful."

County Magistrate Gu said with a sigh: "I will be at ease. I will try this case myself and I will never let him go! - By the way, the engagement is just right, so why not sit in the county government office and what will we do together to try?"

Du Zhongxiao shook his head: "I brought my family here, so I didn't go to the county government office. The magistrate was working hard."
