Chapter 139 Crushed to death first
The yamen runners who were eager to execute the man just now actually stopped temporarily when they heard Yuan Dutou asking about the customs and habits of Nanwu City.
"Nanwu's customs and culture. Of course you should bring some salted fish back. Oh, and if you have time, go to the beach and pick up some clam shells or something. The shells there are so beautiful. Many outsiders are willing to pick them up, saying they want to take them back to their children to enjoy."
"Yes, and there are also dried prawns. I want to take some back with me. They are very durable. People from other places say they are good."
"You've eaten longan before, right? Longan is very cheap here. If you like it, you can buy more."
Several officers were talking to each other, all asking Yuan Dutou to take something back.
Yuan Dutou listened to them with great satisfaction and wrote down everything they said carefully.
He also didn't expect that these yamen runners were so easy to fool and could delay time for so long by just asking a few random questions.
Inside, the prefect was staring at Chen Dutou with his eyes wide open.
"What did you say? When you came in, someone had already used a club to intimidate that Shen lady?"
Chen Dutou was so frightened that his legs went limp: "Everyone else has given tributes, but she refuses to give. I have no choice but to start with her first."
"Asshole!" The prefect threw away the teacup in his hand.
"When did you beat the prisoners with a stick to intimidate them without my permission?" He was mad with rage.
You should know that in addition to promising him money, the Shen family also promised to mention his name in front of familiar officials in the capital.
Although he was a prefect and no unknown person in the court, if he stayed in a remote place like Lingnan for too long, he would inevitably be forgotten by people in the capital.
The more people mention his name, the more likely it is that he will leave this hellhole and be transferred somewhere else in the future.
What's more, it is not impossible for him to return to the capital.
But this damn loser Chen Dutou actually dared to make a decision on his own and beat Miss Shen with a stick to show his power. How is he going to explain this to the Shen family?
Not to mention nomination, the Shen family will definitely make things difficult for him in the capital.
So does he have a chance to return to Beijing in this life?
"Please forgive me, sir!" Seeing that he was really angry, Chen Dutou knelt down with a thud.
"Forgive me, forgive me, you really deserve to die. If it were just this time... you wouldn't even have to do this anymore."
The prefect flicked his sleeves and hurried out.
At this time, the prefect was just praying in his heart that his subordinates would not be too harsh.
If he had only hit her twice and the injury wasn't serious, he could have made excuses by saying he was just pretending.
But if the injury is serious, the Shen family is not stupid, and he will never be able to shirk responsibility.
When he arrived at the lobby of the government office, a man dressed as a hunter, a maid and a guard were standing beside Shen Yitian.
The man dressed as a hunter grabbed the officer's raised stick, while the girl and the guards protected Shen Yitian.
Just now, when the yamen runners realized that they couldn't keep chatting with Yuan Dutou and had to take action as soon as possible, Ye Liehu rushed in with Shengsheng and Xiao Wei.
Shengsheng and Xiaowei did not hesitate. For them, protecting Shen Yitian was their duty.
The atmosphere in the lobby was tense at this time, and Song Yuerong was nervous and excited.
She was excited that this matter had become such a big deal, it definitely wouldn't end well.
What’s worrying is that the Shen family is rich and powerful, and they might be able to use money to settle this farce.
The prefect ignored other people's thoughts and walked quickly to the hall and sat down.
"What are you doing?" he demanded sharply.
At this moment, he just felt that he was overwhelmed.
Everything was fine, how did it turn out like this?
Originally, he just needed to calmly spare Shen Yitian from the killing blow. Now that everyone's attention was on Shen Yitian, how could he naturally help the other party escape punishment?
Looking at the people standing in front of Shen Yitian and those who were stopping the execution, they must have been sent by the Shen family.
