My Sisters Excel in Both Literary and Martial Arts - Chapter 1128
[Chapter 1094 Untrustworthy]
The thin monk’s ideas are naive.
Over the years, they have collected too much money for incense, but no one dares to accuse them in public. Why?
Because these scholars are smart people, they know who is behind Taohua Temple, and they will still hang out in Jiangling in the future, how can they dare to offend? Scholars are the most timid.
So he thought that they still didn’t dare to say anything.
“Come on, let’s talk, is what he said true?”
“…”
Sure enough, when Jing Zhe finished asking, no one said anything.
The thin monk was overjoyed and said: “President Jing, look what the poor monk is saying? This is the first time!”
Jing Zhe ignored him and scanned the crowd again: “You don’t have to be afraid of anyone. If you have entered before You have paid the incense money to the temple, just tell me! I will do justice for you!”
“…”
Everyone, look at me, I look at you, but no one says anything.
“President Jing, let me tell you!”
At this time, Fatty Wei stood up: “President Jing, this is not Taohua Temple where you are collecting incense money! Since Jiangling’s major poetry festivals were held in Taohua Temple, whenever you want to To enter the temple, you need to pay money to buy incense. This has been the case for nearly ten times.
Moreover, I have heard from many young men from other places who came to participate in poetry gatherings that they were forced to buy incense when they came to participate in poetry gatherings. And the price of Changxiang is ridiculously high!”
After finishing speaking, Fatty Wei winked at Jing Zhe, as if to say that no one else supports your work, brother! Jing Zhe also responded with a smile.
“President Jing, he is talking nonsense!”
The thin monk immediately became furious: “President Jing, he is the only one among so many people who said that he received money, so he is discrediting us!”
“Really?”
Jing Zhe sneered and asked again Said: “I ask again, has anyone pointed out that they collected incense money? This is the last time.”
“…”
Seeing that there was still no reply, the thin monk quickly said: “President Jing, this fat man is just talking nonsense. Ah!”
Jing Zhe glanced at him coldly, “Why, what I said just now is that I’m also talking nonsense? Didn’t you just sell me Changxiang at a high price? I thought you were so skilled. He’s a repeat offender! This time he’s right!”
“…”
The thin monk instantly shrank.
Jing Zhe continued: “This extortion and robbery is just like murder. You are guilty of killing ten people, and you are equally guilty of killing one person. You can’t kill fewer people or you are not guilty of the first murder, right? You deceived people once. Or a person, that’s a lie! Come on, arrest him!”
“…”
After Jing Zhe finished speaking, no one made any move, and everyone looked at him, feeling a little strange.
Jing Zhe went to see Prefect Xu and said in a cold voice: “Prefect Xu, are you deaf? Can’t you hear what I say?”
Prefect Xu was shocked and said immediately: “What are you still standing there for? Didn’t you hear President Jing’s order?” Arrest them!”
The detectives suddenly realized what they were doing and quickly arrested all the monks including Master Kongjing and the Thin Monk.
“Xu…Prefect Xu, you are wronged!”
Master Kongjing shouted.
“Whether you are unjust or not, I will judge you!”
Jing Zhe waved his hand, “Take them all back to the prison. When I finish my work, I will go over and judge you personally!”
“…”
Master Kongjing wanted to say more, However, Prefect Xu gave him a cryptic look, and Master Kongjing understood, so he shut up.
After Master Kongjing and others were escorted away, the backyard of Taohua Temple became extremely quiet. Everyone looked at each other, wondering what they were thinking.
At this time, Jing Zhe suddenly looked at Xu Taishou and said: “Xu Taishou, what is the source of daily expenses of this Taohua Temple?”
Xu Taishou thought for a while and said: “Hui Jing President, it is the incense money… On weekdays, people come to the temple to burn incense. Worshiping Buddha and handing over incense money, of course, are all done on your own initiative.”
Jing Zhe nodded: “Is this a lot of money for incense?”
“It shouldn’t be much. As far as I know, the merit box in Peach Blossom Temple is empty. Once opened at the end of every month, the incense money inside is only enough for the temple’s expenses for a month, and even if there is a balance, there won’t be much left.”
Next, Jing Zhe directly ordered the police to open the merit box in the temple and add up the incense money inside. Just one or two taels of silver.
Jing Zhe took the silver and said to Prefect Xu: “Prefect Xu, there are only one or two taels of silver in this merit box – but considering that it is the beginning of the month, by the end of the month, there will be almost twenty or thirty taels of silver in the merit box. You
“Absolutely… almost…”
Xu
Taishou replied hesitantly, because he really couldn’t understand the reason why Jing Zhe asked these questions, so he could only ask tentatively.
After hearing this, Jing Zhe ordered another search. In a short time, he found banknotes and cash in Master Kongjing’s room, totaling more than two thousand taels, which was staggering.
“Prefect Xu also said just now that this merit box only collects twenty or thirty taels of silver in a month, and it is used up in one month, so the old monk should not have much silver left, so I feel that these more than two thousand The two silver coins were obtained by illegally collecting incense money!”
“…”
Prefect Xu smiled bitterly in his heart, knowing that he had fallen into a trap. He was led step by step by Jing Zhe to say those words. Now he had to admit it even if he didn’t want to admit it. Moreover, he felt faintly in his heart that Master Kongjing and others were probably doomed this time!
At this time, Jing Zhe looked at everyone again, but with a sneer on his face: “Brother Wei was the only one who identified him just now, which means that in these years, only Brother Wei…oh, and I, have been extorted from incense money by these monks, so , these two thousand taels can only be divided equally between me and Brother Wei!”
“…”
Fatty Wei was stunned, happiness came so suddenly!
Everyone was shocked, could they still play like this?
Prefect Xu was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized: “Didn’t President Jing just say… that Changxiang asked for twenty taels of silver from you?”
“Oh, I mean he asked for twenty taels at first, and then he asked for it randomly. I have hundreds or thousands of taels, I just didn’t say anything.”
“…”
Governor Xu immediately had nothing to say.
At this time, everyone immediately reacted. It seemed that President Jing was serious this time. Now that there were witnesses and evidence, and so much stolen money had been found, Master Kongjing was afraid that he would be finished, so they were still afraid. what?
They also paid a lot of incense money each time, so they should have a share of the more than two thousand taels of silver!
After thinking about this clearly, everyone began to speak enthusiastically.
“President Jing, I paid for incense before!”
“President Jing, I also paid for incense!”
“President Jing, President Jing, and me!”
“…”
Seeing the benefits, Everyone was jealous.
Jing Zhe was a little contemptuous and smiled contemptuously: “Then why didn’t you say anything just now? I feel now that you are just greedy for money, so what you say now is not credible!”
“…”
