I Transmigrated Into a Novel and Became the Vicious Stepmother of Five Cute Babies Chapter 170 – 170 Provoked Someone You Shouldn’t Have Provoked

170 Provoked Someone You Shouldn’t Have Provoked

“Old Master, this little one was just angry and misheard what others said. As for the so-called silver, this little one didn’t intend to take it!”

Wang Luosheng also went all out. How could he still care about his face now? He would thank the heavens and earth if he could walk out of the manor’s gate in one piece!

Originally, he had hoped that he could easily earn two taels of wine money by saying a few words. Now it seemed that not only would he not be able to earn money from the wine, but he would also have to put himself in prison for no reason. What the hell was this!

Mo Ruyue was now happily watching the show from the side. The mastermind behind Wang Luosheng couldn’t escape from the county magistrate. It was just that that guy had hidden himself very well, so he couldn’t touch him now. However, sooner or later, he would settle the score with him, so she wasn’t in a hurry.

“Enough! This official doesn’t care if you misheard or did it deliberately, but today you insulted Madam Qin in Huichun Hall and ruined her reputation and innocence. This matter is clearly fixed on the white board, right?”

“Since that’s the case, I will sentence you with three strokes of the board, a fine of ten taels of silver, and apologize to Madam Qin in public for her forgiveness.”

The county magistrate had just finished speaking when Mo Ruyue sneered, causing him to immediately sweep a cold glance over. He said unhappily, “What, does Madam Qin have an opinion on my punishment?”

“The Eldest Master is very observant. So my reputation is clean, and it’s worth three canes and ten taels of silver? I wonder which law this punishment is in line with? I remember that according to the laws of this dynasty, the punishment for those who destroy a person’s innocence can range from three months to ten years in prison according to the severity of the case. Could it be that the Eldest Master thinks that this Wang Luosheng is not even worthy of the lightest case?”

Ever since Mo Ruyue had suffered a loss in the court case, she had specially bought a set of laws from the book shop to read. Now, she could not say that she had a clear understanding of all aspects, but she could be considered to have understood the right of reputation and real rights.

Now that she had said this at the right time, the county magistrate was caught off guard.

The advisor was also stunned. His hands were trembling. He couldn’t write down the words he was originally recording. How was he supposed to write them? The one who judged the case was taught the law by the one who complained?

If this was recorded in the case file, it would be a stain and a laughing stock that could not be erased for a lifetime.

The advisor really wanted to look at the county magistrate, but he didn’t dare to. He was afraid to see the magistrate’s current predicament.

Fortunately, his mind was not completely frozen. He hesitantly said, “Madam Qin, I’m afraid you misunderstood the Eldest Master’s meaning. He hasn’t finished his words just now. The sentence was divided into two parts. One part was the time the sinner should go to jail, and the other part was the compensation to the plaintiff. Madam Qin, you’re too impatient.”

After he finished speaking, he even bowed to the Magistrate and said, “Old Master, although you’ve been angered by Wang Luosheng, you’ll still have plenty of opportunities to scold him. We can’t let Lady Qin and the others misunderstand.”

These words were already a clear reminder to the county magistrate. If he still couldn’t take the ladder in time, then the private advisor would really have no other way.

Fortunately, the magistrate was still able to listen to his advice. He puffed up his cheeks and took a few breaths, swallowing the resentment in his chest. He said in a hoarse voice, “That’s right. This official has indeed caused Madam Qin and Old Doctor Tian to misunderstand.”

“According to the circumstances, this person should be sentenced to half a year in prison and fined ten taels of silver. He should apologize to Madam Qin in front of the entire city to prove his innocence.”

As soon as the county magistrate finished speaking, Wang Luosheng was completely paralyzed on the ground, completely dumbfounded.

He had only said a few words. How did he end up with a fine, an apology, and even going to jail?

Even if he had to pay a fine and apologize, he could accept it, but he couldn’t go to jail!

Not to mention half a year, he couldn’t even sit for a day. He still had to take the imperial examinations. If he had a criminal record, it meant that he would have no fate with Imperial examinations and official careers in this life. This was the most fatal thing.

After sitting there in a daze for a long time, Wang Luosheng suddenly jumped up and pounced on Mo Ruyue with all his might, mumbling, “Madam Qin, please save me. Please be merciful and let me go!”

How could Mo Ruyue be hit by him? Seeing that the person was already in front of her, she easily kicked him away with a whip leg.

Although Wang Luosheng was a weak scholar, he was still a man who weighed more than a hundred pounds. He was sent flying a few meters away with a single kick. Mo Ruyue’s move made many people gasp.

It turned out that this cold-looking Madam Qin was really not to be trifled with. Not only was her mouth not to be trifled with, but even her martial arts skills were not to be trifled with.

Magistrate Liu felt a bitter taste in his mouth and couldn’t help but swallow his saliva.

To think that he wanted to use force against Madam Qin back then. Although he also suffered a slap, it was obvious that she had shown mercy. Otherwise, based on the strength of this kick, he might not have ended up any better than Wang Luosheng.

He looked at Wang Luosheng, who had fallen to the ground without a sound, and a chill ran down his spine. Even his official robe was soaked.

The news of Madam Qin’s kick that sent the man flying and the fact that he was out of breath flew out as if it had wings, refreshed many people’s understanding of her “martial strength”.

For a time, the rumors in the streets and alleys were not that Madam Qin had found a deviant private tutor for her child, nor was it her “affair” with the private tutor, but that Madam Qin not only had Kung Fu, but her skills were also very high. Even the matter of her hunting a giant tiger alone had been dug up.

“Hey, do you think there will be people who will be blind and provoke Madam Qin in the future? This guy, you guys didn’t see it, but a man who weighs more than a hundred pounds was sent flying with just one kick. How much strength did she use?”

“I saw it, I saw it. Aiyo, that man directly fainted. In the end, he still had to rely on Madam Qin to live. I think he deserved it. How vicious must his heart be to ruin a woman’s innocence? Isn’t he forcing her to death?”

“That’s right, speaking of which, Madam Qin doesn’t remember the past. If it were me, I would just let him die!”

Some of these words were passed back to the ears of the people in the court. Naturally, some people felt comfortable, while others felt stifled.

Mo Ruyue and the Imperial Doctor both had righteous expressions on their faces, but Magistrate Liu’s face was dark no matter how one looked at it. As for Wang Luosheng, who had been awoken by Mo Ruyue’s kick and slap, he was also in a daze and remorseful.

“Since Wang Luosheng’s interrogation is over, then we’ll stop here for today. Tomorrow, someone call that Qin Clan over and we’ll continue. Withdraw!”

Magistrate Liu waved his hand. He didn’t care if Mo Ruyue and the others had anything else to say. He stood up and left.

Wang Luosheng was dragged out by the bailiffs and was prepared to be thrown into the prison. As for compensation and apology, they would have to wait until they had interrogated the Qin Clan.

When he passed by Mo Ruyue, he didn’t even dare to raise his eyes. That kick just now had completely destroyed his thoughts of clinging to her and begging for mercy. He only hated himself for being blind and provoking someone he shouldn’t have provoked.

Mo Ruyue walked to Imperial Doctor Tian’s side and reached out to hold his elbow, “Elder Tian, let’s go. I’ll handle the court trial by myself tomorrow. You don’t have to come again.”
