Chapter 2014 Are They Innocent
Zhou Hengjiang and his wife were completely unprepared for everything that happened unexpectedly.
They knew in their mind that Li Chen would definitely threaten his family's life and would inevitably impose punishments, but they did not expect that Li Chen just asked a question and then took action directly after he didn't get the answer.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Zhou Hengjiang let out a shrill scream. He wanted to struggle wildly, but he had no strength at all.
"I'm going to kill you! Kill you!!!"
At this time, Xu Wei had already put the steel knife stained with the blood of Zhou Hengjiang and Zhou Mengbei on the woman's shoulders.
"You answer, there is only one chance."
Xu Wei's cold words were like a devil's ultimatum.
The woman was trembling all over.
She is also a famous female hero in the world. She had already gained some reputation before marrying Zhou Hengjiang. Later, she married Zhou Hengjiang as a wife, but she always had her own reserve and pride.
But the reserve and pride of this female hero in the world have been completely shattered today.
"We really don't know. It's just that someone came to us and gave us an order to go to Dai County to burn the county government and kill the prefect, and ask that his body be hung on the city gate. If we don't do what they want, it will immediately cause the family to be destroyed, and we can't do anything about it..."
Xu Wei sneered: "Can you treat us as fools? If you don't even know who the other party is, you can be threatened by him?"
The woman said tremblingly: "It's true. Many sects in the world have received similar requests. Some do not believe in evil, but they refused and were destroyed in a few days after they refused. No one dared to resist under the bloody fact."
Xu Wei looked up at Li Chen after hearing this.
Is this answer reliable or not? Is it worth believing? Only after Li Chen said it.
Li Chen pondered quietly and said, "What do you mean, many county government offices in many places have been attacked similarly?"
"Hengshui, Tianmen, Mujiang, and Dai County, we know only these four places, and we don't know the others."
Li Chen nodded to show that he understood.
"Kill the imperial court's official and set fire to the county government. Are you not afraid of the imperial court's blame?" Li Chen asked again.
The woman laughed terrified and said, "It's impossible to offend anyway, but compared to being wiped out immediately, the court must first find the real murderer behind the scenes, not to mention that there are not only one or two sects that have done these things. Some famous figures in the world have also received orders, and we... "
"So you think about the law and do not blame the public. Even if the court finally settles the score, you may not be able to find your head. Maybe there are other unlucky scapegoats, right?" Li Chen interrupted her and said.
The woman remained silent, but judging from her appearance, she obviously made a default.
Li Chen's eyes were indifferent and said, "Since you confessed your sins, you will get both people and stolen. There is no need to make too many quibblings and explanations. Just follow the law."
Rule.
Burning the yamen and killing the imperial officials, no matter which of these two is enough to be beheaded, let alone the addition of the two, which destined them to be unable to survive.
Zhou Hengjiang struggled suddenly, and he raised his head and said angrily to Li Chen: "We have no choice but to force you to find the real murderer behind the scenes. We are innocent!"
"innocent?"
