Chapter 98: A Resounding Man

Yuyang Le Pang said: "Official Zhao, you say."

Du Sanye's eagle eyes looked at Official Zhao.

Official Zhao:???

The County Lieutenant is here, why don't you let him say it?

He didn't dare to disobey the Bieja's son, nor did he dare to openly push out County Lieutenant Chen. Plus, he was indeed in charge of criminal cases, so he had to bite the bullet and say: "They kidnapped a child and resisted the government's arrest..."

Du Sanye suddenly stood up, walked to the two arrested people, and scolded angrily:

"I have always told you to be law-abiding, but you threw my words to the back of your minds! You actually did such an illegal thing! In the end, I have to labor to maneuver for you outside! Just go in and eat some bitterness for a few days, and learn a lesson."

Du Sanye's scolding was actually to reassure the two, meaning it was no big deal, and he would take care of everything.

As soon as Wang Yang heard it, he knew what Du Sanye was planning. He couldn't let Du Sanye get his wish. Since he had made a move, he had to catch them all! He said coldly:

"This is not a matter of closing for a few days. Kidnapping people is a serious crime! As for whether it's kidnapping and selling, or kidnapping for money, we will only know after the trial. The minimum is three years of labor."

Kun is shaving the hair, Qian is a torture instrument, and three years is three years. It means shaving the hair and wearing torture instruments, and laboring as a prisoner for three years.

The strong man became anxious as soon as he heard it:

"Three years won't do! Jiaojiao will definitely run away with someone else! What is becoming a monk? I don't want to be a monk! Third Master, Third Master, you have to save me!"

The bailiffs found the strong man so silly and dull that they all felt it was funny.

Du Sanye cursed in his heart, but he couldn't abandon the car to save the handsome in front of them, so he said with feigned ease:

"It doesn't matter, even if you are really sentenced to three years, you can redeem it with money."

Qi Law, redeem five years of punishment, one jin and twelve liang of gold, each year reduced, with four liang as the difference.

Wang Yang looked at the strong man and said: "Official nobles, the old, the young, the sick, and women, or those who commit crimes by mistake, or those whose intentions are good but whose merits are evil, and whose crimes are within the scope of redemption, can be redeemed. You do not meet the conditions and cannot redeem it with money."

"Then what should I do?" The strong man looked anxious.

Wang Yang guided him step by step: "As long as you are not the mastermind, it's easy to handle. If you are willing to provide the mastermind, I will tell the County Magistrate to release you and only pursue the mastermind's responsibility."

The thin man still hung his head and didn't speak, while the strong man suddenly straightened his chest and said loudly: "Wanting me to betray the boss, impossible! I, Qiu Dahao, am a resounding man! I will never be a traitor!"

Du Sanye cursed Qiu Dahao as an idiot in his heart, and comforted him: "This case is judged by Jiangling County. You don't have to listen to others' intimidation. Just stay in prison for a few days. Don't worry about things at home. I will take care of them."

Little A-Wu looked at the strong man and then at Du Sanye, lost in thought.

The thin man knew that Third Master Du was threatening him with his family, while the strong man was completely unaware and said seriously: "Third Master, I don't have anyone at home to take care of. Can you help me take care of Jiaojiao? Let her not run away with other men."

Several officials couldn't help but laugh out loud. Du Sanye endured his anger and said: "Good."

"Thank you, Third Master! Jiaojiao lives in the second house at the east end of Tangzhu Village. You will know when you ask about Old Xu's daughter."

Du Sanye:...

Wang Yang was worrying about how to hold Du Sanye when little A-Wu suddenly said: "I saw the mastermind."

Everyone was stunned.

Wang Yang hurriedly asked: "Who is it?"

Little A-Wu raised her arm and pointed at Du Sanye: "It's him."

The whole room was in an uproar.

Du Sanye was furious: "You fart!"

Little A-Wu was so scared that she hid behind Wang Yang's legs, and Chen Qingshan's scabbard blocked Du Sanye.

A-Wu revealed a small head, her voice childish but firm: "It's him! I saw it clearly! He held a teapot and walked in, looking at me... looking at whether I was tied up..."

Du Sanye was so angry that his face turned blue.

He did go to see A-Wu, but her eyes were covered with a black cloth at the time, so it was impossible for her to see him! He didn't hold any teapot! But it just so happened that he couldn't explain this, so he could only scold:

"You little brat, talking nonsense! Who taught you?!"

The strong man shouted: "You're talking nonsense! Third Master had his hands behind his back at the time, he didn't hold a teapot at all! You dare to frame the Third Master..."

Everyone was silent, looking at Du Sanye.

Du Sanye was furious, went up and kicked the strong man to the ground.

Yuyang Le Pang said: "What are you waiting for, take this person down!"

"Who dares!" Du Sanye showed the sharp knife in his sleeve, but it was knocked away by Chen Qingshan's scabbard.

The bailiffs swarmed up and pressed Du Sanye to the ground.

Du Sanye stared: "You dare to move me?! I will make you unable to eat and walk! Wang Yang! Do you think you are great because you are of the Langya Wang clan? If the Prince of Luling knows..."

Wang Yang shouted: "Shut up! You dare to frame the Prince of Luling after breaking the law! Drag him down!"

"Third Master didn't hold a teapot! Third Master is innocent!" The strong man was still shaking his head and shouting until he was dragged away. Everyone felt it was funny, but no one noticed the cunning hidden in the depths of the seemingly silly and excited eyes.

Late at night, the Bieja Mansion was brightly lit.

Le Zhan had already learned that his son had described the soldier's girl as a member of the Langya Wang clan and had arrested Du Sanye into prison, and he was so angry that smoke was coming out of his seven orifices!

At this time, this high-ranking Jingzhou official had his clothes tucked into his belt, holding a jujube wood stick, standing with angry eyes, waiting for his rebellious son to return to the mansion. The servants and guards around him were waiting from afar, not daring to breathe.

A servant ran over to report: "Young... Young Master is back, and..."

"Rebellious son! If I don't beat you to death tonight, I'll be sorry to my ancestors!" Le Zhan didn't wait for the servant to finish, dragged the stick and rushed to the hall, murderous! He just happened to run into Yuyang Le Pang and Wang Yang laughing and entering the mansion.

"I tell you, my father likes poetry the most, likes to read other people's poetry, and also likes to write it himself, and has written many good poems..."

"Then Uncle is really an elegant person..."

While the two were talking, they saw Le Zhan dragging the stick with wind, and were stunned on the spot.

Le Zhan saw that there were outsiders, and was also stunned. The anger on his face hadn't dissipated, but there was a bit more embarrassment.

The three looked at each other, and the atmosphere became extremely awkward for a while.

"Father... this... this is Wang Yang." Yuyang Le Pang said tremblingly.

Wang Yang also reacted, blinked his eyes, and immediately bowed to Le Zhan: "I am Wang Yang, courtesy name Zhiyan. Today's matter, thanks to Uncle's righteous action."

Le Zhan threw the stick away, tucked his clothes back into his belt calmly, stepped forward and laughed: "Ah! So it's Zhiyan! Indeed a talent..."

Wang Yang came here, one to thank Le Zhan for his help, and two to discuss with Le Zhan how to deal with Du Sanye.

All the servants had been dismissed, leaving only the Le father and son and Wang Yang to discuss secretly.

Le Zhan said earnestly: "It's good that the person is found. I advise you not to hold onto this matter and let Jiangling County handle it itself, and let them decide the severity. Although this Du Shubao is not a relative of the Prince of Luling, his daughter is the Prince of Luling's favorite concubine, and he also helps the Prince of Luling manage business in Jingzhou. It's not worth it to offend a prince because of such a person."

Wang Yang pressed his fingers and said softly: "If you don't kill the snake, you will have future troubles."

——————————

Note: Du Sanye does not understand the law and does not know that there is a legal clause from the *Jin Law* that "a ten-year-old cannot accuse others." It means that those who are not over ten years old cannot accuse others of crimes, and naturally cannot act as witnesses. So little A-Wu's identification is actually invalid. As long as the Third Master stays steady and doesn't move, it will be fine. ===== CHAPTER 99 =====
