Chapter 568

Ye Xiaotian tilted his head and asked, "The Li Clan lives in the southeast of the city?"

Su Xuntian's voice trembled, "Yes … yes …"

Ye Xiaotian asked again, "The Li Clan already knows that Li Yanting is dead?"

Su Xuntian said, "That can't be. I … I brought Li Yanting outside … I think another gambler informed his family."

Ye Xiaotian frowned, "This Li Clan is so arrogant. They dare to come here in the middle of the night to cause trouble just because the authorities have arrested someone!"

Su Xuntian said embarrassedly, "Sir, I … I may be a constable, but I did not use the magistrate's card to arrest him, so …"

Ye Xiaotian came to a sudden realization. He pondered for a moment and said, "Your brother-in-law is afraid of this matter, isn't he?"

Su Xuntian gritted his teeth, "Brother-in-law, he … asked me to bear the responsibility, he said … he will do his best to protect me!"

Ye Xiaotian snorted, "I'm only afraid that if this matter gets out of hand, he won't be able to protect you. It's not like you don't know how fierce the people of Gourd County are. "

Su Xuntian clenched his teeth, his cheeks trembling. He was extremely resentful, but there was nothing he could say.

Ye Xiaotian thought for a moment, then asked in a deep voice, "This matter, does it have anything to do with your brother-in-law?"

Su Xuntian was startled. He hesitated for a moment, then thought of his sister and answered, "No! I was blinded by greed, that's why … "

Ye Xiaotian sighed, "Come closer!"

Su Xuntian quickly tiptoed to Ye Xiaotian's side, and Ye Xiaotian whispered a few words into his ear. Su Xuntian was stunned, "He … will agree?"

Ye Xiaotian sneered and said, "The most black-hearted and gutsy person in the world is the head of the jailor. As long as you can control him or give him enough benefits, there is nothing you can't do in that dark place! "

Su Xuntian gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "Fine! I still have some savings, about 80 taels, I will give them all to him … "

Ye Xiaotian said, "80 taels, I'm afraid it won't be enough to satisfy his appetite."

Su Xuntian hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth, "Fine! I have a way! I'll do it now! "

Su Xuntian walked away, but he only took a few steps when he turned and knelt in front of Ye Xiaotian, and he sobbed, "A friend in need is a friend! This lowly officer will never forget Milord's kindness! "

After Su Xuntian finished, he ran down the mountain as if he was flying.

Ye Xiaotian looked at his back and gently furrowed his brows. He slowly said, "If Hua Qingfeng was not involved, how could you only have eighty taels of silver in savings from running a casino?"

Although Ye Xiaotian did not know the reason for Hua Qingfeng's money, he had already listed him as the behind-the-scenes owner of the 'Toad Palace Garden' casino. He thought for a moment, then quickly walked out of the guest hall, and called out, "Ruo Xiaosheng!"

Ruo Xiaosheng, who was waiting outside the courtyard, hurried in, bowed his head, and said respectfully, "Master."

Ye Xiaotian said, "Find a lamp, and accompany me down the mountain!"

Ruo Xiaosheng agreed, and quickly went to find a lamp to illuminate the path ahead, and led Ye Xiaotian down the mountain.

Ye Xiaotian walked in a hurry, and after a moment, he suddenly said, "Li Yanting, who took your family's property a few days ago, died tonight!"

Ruo Xiaosheng let out an "ah", and his face was blank at first, and then filled with an indescribable joy.

With this delay, Ye Xiaotian had already walked in front of him. Ruo Xiaosheng reacted, and quickly rushed forward to continue to light the lamp for Ye Xiaotian. His footsteps suddenly became lighter.

…

Dozens of people from the Li family, carrying rolling pins, bamboo spears, and wooden sticks, rushed to the county government office aggressively. When they arrived at the county government office, two young men climbed over the fence, rushed to the porch, picked up the drumsticks, and began to beat. At the same time, they shouted loudly, "A nest of officials and bandits, bullying the good people, Master, please uphold justice!"

There was a bailiff on night duty in the county government office, and he opened the door angrily. Before he could shout, he was surrounded by the people from the Li family. Another bailiff saw that the situation was not good, and hurried to the back house to report the news.

In the living room of the back house, Hua Qingfeng was like a donkey pulling a mill, walking in circles, and anxiously twirling his beard, and from time to time looked behind the screen.

At this time, a maid ran in, her clothes disheveled. She was awakened by the sound of the door, and hurried to the living room in a panic. She bowed to Hua Qingfeng, and said, "Master, there are people beating drums in the middle of the night in the front office, and the bailiffs have come to report that the victims are angry, and they are not friendly. Master, please quickly go to the front office to deal with them."

Hua Qingfeng stared and said angrily, "How dare they! Beating drums in the middle of the night is already against the rules, and they still dare to break into the county government office? Go, ask all the bailiffs on night duty to go, whoever dares to break in, beat them out! "

The maid ran out in a panic, and Hua Qingfeng shouted again, "Ask them to wait, just say that I will go after I change my clothes!"

After the maid left, Hua Qingfeng looked behind the screen, and let out a long sigh, and anxiously walked in circles again. After a while, Su Ya hurriedly came out from behind the screen.

Madam Ya's appearance at this moment is really something to look at. She was dressed in silk pajamas, an attire that only her husband can see in the bedroom, but because she was already asleep, her hair accessories were removed, and her hair was like a cloud, hanging loosely over her shoulders, adding a touch of charm to her.

Especially when she got up in a hurry and didn't even put on her bra. Her soft breasts, which were usually restrained, were now completely unleashed. Her cleavage was deep and her clothes were about to burst out. Her seductive snow-white breasts outlined a soul-stirring hot curve. When she walked quickly, her breasts were like a raging wave.

Hua Qingfeng did not have the time to admire his wife's charm, and hurriedly went up to her, and asked, "He has already left?"

Su Ya nodded her head, and said, "He just left, what actually happened?"

Hua Qingfeng said bitterly, "This …, Sigh! I can't explain it clearly in such a short time. "

Su Ya's beautiful eyes were full of doubt, and said, "Where did you get so much money, how come I don't know?"

Hua Qingfeng said in annoyance, "Wife, your husband's heart is in a mess right now, please don't ask."

Su Ya wanted to say something but stopped, and saw that his face was indeed full of anxiety, and in just a short time, there were actually two blisters on his lips. She immediately swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth, but the doubt in her heart became even stronger. Just now when she asked her brother, Su Xuntian also gave the same answer, what exactly is her husband and brother hiding from her?

Hua Qingfeng wrung his hands as he walked, and muttered to himself, "Was he really instructed by him? Could it be that he is trying to escape punishment? "

Su Ya was puzzled, and did not know that the first 'he' that Hua Qingfeng said was referring to Ye Xiaotian, and the second 'he' was referring to Su Xuntian.

Su Xuntian hurriedly fled down the mountain, and rushed to the county government office before the long line of torches, and directly entered through the back door, which alarmed his sister.

At that time, his brother-in-law, Hua Qingfeng, was in the living room, sighing and groaning, and was not sleepy at all. When Su Xuntian saw Hua Qingfeng, he immediately said, "Brother-in-law, quickly give me three hundred taels of silver, and I will be able to resolve this matter."

Hua Qingfeng did not believe him, and stamped his feet, saying, "You want to escape? How foolish! Once you escape, this matter will become a serious crime of murder, and at that time, a portrait will be drawn, and the whole world will be wanted. You can't even lift a finger, and you can't even lift a finger, where can you escape to? "

Su Xuntian said angrily, "Although I am incompetent, I am not a coward, and I am not a person without responsibility! Don't worry, I will bear this matter, and I will not implicate you! "

Hua Qingfeng said embarrassedly, "What are you talking about, I … I asked you to bear this matter, because if you go in, I can still take care of you, but if I fall, who else can you rely on?"

Su Xuntian said coldly, "Then thank you, brother-in-law. However, I have just received guidance from Yeh Dianshi, no matter how much trouble the Li Clan makes, this matter can be reduced to a small one, and a small one into nothing. But I do need three hundred taels of silver. "

Although Hua Qingfeng disdained Ye Xiaotian, he had always believed that Ye Xiaotian was full of tricks, so when he heard this, his eyes immediately lit up, and he hurriedly said, "What good idea does he have?"

Su Xuntian said, "There is no time to explain in detail, the Li Clan's clansmen are already rushing to the yamen with lanterns and torches. Quickly take out three hundred taels of silver and give it to me. In a while, when the Li Clan's clansmen arrive, delay them for a while, and then like this …"

Su Xuntian lowered his voice, and hurriedly explained to Hua Qingfeng. Hua Qingfeng was dubious, but he had no choice but to do as he was told. At this moment, Su Ya, who had been awakened, rushed over, and Hua Qingfeng did not have time to explain in detail to her, and took out the key, asking her to quickly take out three hundred taels of silver and give it to Su Xuntian.

Su Ya was puzzled, but seeing that her husband and brother were both anxious, she knew that this was not the time to ask questions, and hurriedly went to get the silver. This silver depository was in one of Hua Qingfeng's study rooms, usually Su Ya did not go there, and the key was always in Hua Qingfeng's hands, but she did not know that there was a whole chest of silver hidden there, which gave Su Ya a fright, but her brother urged her urgently, so she did not dare to delay, and hurriedly wrapped up the chest of silver and gave it to Su Xuntian.

Three hundred taels of silver was really not a small amount, and Su Xuntian was afraid of delaying, so he asked the people in the back house to bring over a mule, and let the mule carry the silver, and left without touching the ground.

In the back house, Madam Ya was full of doubts, Hua Qingfeng was on tenterhooks, and the people of the Li family in the front office also froze in front of the door.

Although there were many people of the Li family, but they were just ordinary people, and would not dare to force their way into the government office. Although they were relying on the fact that Su Xuntian did not have a card, and the people who arrested him were ruffians, who were obviously in cahoots with the gambling house, and were doing illegal things, the Li family was in the right, but once they force their way into the government office, they would be caught by others.

They did not dare to break into the government office, but dared to shout and wrangle outside, making a lot of noise. In the quiet night, shouting and wrangling actually woke up a lot of people in the surrounding area, and attracted some people to watch the show with lanterns in their hands.

As soon as the people of the Li family saw that there were people watching, they became more courageous, and loudly scolded and complained, treating the entrance of the government office like a teahouse. The bailiffs on night duty carried their water and fire rods, and grasped their swords, nervously guarding in front of the government office, but did not dare to shout to stop, so as not to provoke them further.

While both sides were in a deadlock, Magistrate Hua finally 'dressed up', and forced himself to calm down and walked out of the back house.
