Chapter 620: Arrogance

Master Wang smiled contentedly and returned to the room to continue waiting.

He believed that the words he had spoken would definitely reach County Magistrate Xu's ears. No leader would enjoy having their status challenged.

The anger he had felt from being summoned this time had dissipated.

Outside, the bailiff in charge of guarding Master Wang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Master Wang didn't say anything more. It seemed that Master Wang believed in their performance, right?

"Where two families fight, there will be injuries." the bailiff whispered to himself, shaking his head as he looked at the sky, which seemed like it was about to rain, and he didn't say anything more.

In the county jail, the steward of the Wang mansion was still resisting. Mr. Xie and County Magistrate Xu discussed and decided to send someone to bring a forged contract for sale, and they secretly brought over the steward's relatives.

"Wang Xiao, just confess. The evidence is conclusive now. Do you think Master Wang still has a chance to turn things around with his wealth?" The steward who had been used by Wang was pointed out by the steward.

The steward, who had been resisting, heard this and instantly collapsed emotionally. "Sir, Master, I confess, I confess."

"It was the master who asked me to find someone to kill that child and frame it on the son of Chu Heng."

"But I have no evidence. I haven't even paid the money to that person yet, and he was already arrested."

"I have no choice. I beg County Magistrate Xu to spare me."

"Oh, really? Then think about what else Master Wang has done wrong. There are enough reasons to behead him. If you don't think carefully, when Master Wang goes out and beheads you, even I won't have any evidence to seek revenge for you."

"I'll think about it..."

"Sir, there's something I need to confess. I hope you'll see my cooperation positively and spare my life."

"Go ahead." County Magistrate Xu looked down on the life of a servant like this one. The one who truly threatened his status was Master Wang, or even the officials in the prefectural capital.

Just now, the Xie family had told him about Master Wang's connection with the officials in the prefectural capital.

County Magistrate Xu was angry and frightened. He hadn't expected Master Wang to be so bold, actually colluding with higher-ranking officials. No wonder the other party looked down on him.

Actually, he could have immediately chosen to cooperate with Master Wang and turn the tables on the Xie family.

But, when he thought of the sentence inadvertently uttered by Xie Yu, implying that Master Wang couldn't send out messages for the time being, he suddenly felt a chill. If he couldn't strike the Xie family decisively, then he would definitely face their counterattack.

Compared to Master Wang, or even the one in the prefectural capital, he knew more about the Xie family's background.

Not to mention the original background of the Xie family, just talk about the Second Young Master of the Xie family, who served as an official in the same court as him. It was rumored that the young master had caught the attention of higher-ups and was just waiting for his three-year term to end, with a high probability of promotion.

Why offend them?

It was better to stand completely on the side of the Xie family. If the Xie family prospered in the future, they could even help him.

In the afternoon, the sky darkened.

And then it started to rain heavily.

At the Wang mansion, Master Wang had already been called over for nearly two hours.

Wang Yan was so angry that she went to the county office to curse twice, but not only did she not see anyone, she was also driven out by the bailiffs.

With her already arrogant personality, after her arm was disabled, her temperament became even more aggressive.
