Yancheng County County Government.
The county magistrate is still Lord Zong Zezong.
After the government officials led a group of people into the county government office, Zongze, who was working in the county government office, watched them bring a group of people in, and couldn't help but feel a little headache.
"Who is here? What is the purpose of coming here?"
Seeing that among the group of people who came in, there was a group of people who were taken to the county government office every now and then. Although most of them were trivial matters, Cui Er was only taught a few words and refused to repent. Zongze couldn't help but feel a little proud.
Just as Zong Ze was getting upset here, Cui Er in front of him was already talking.
"County Master, you have to make the decision for the villain. The villain was beaten by Zhao Da of Zhaojia Village and has never been able to recover. Now he wants to go to Zhao Da to ask for money for this period of time, but he won't give it.
I saw that he only had one horse, and I wanted to take it away, but these people were here to beat me. I was already injured and they beat me again. This may be adding injury to injury.
Moreover, when my brother wanted to seek justice for me, he was beaten up by people they didn’t know where they found. Everyone was injured. Please make the decision for us, the county magistrate! "
While Cui Er was shouting at the top of his lungs, Zongze hugged his temples and sighed.
"Why did this happen again?"
Although Zongze said this, he still looked at Yue'er and others who were with Zhao Da of Zhaojiacun.
"Did you injure him? Is it true that he was like this just now, as he said?"
Just after Zongze said these words, Cui Erzai kept talking here while everyone had not yet spoken.
"That's it, that's it. Don't you still believe what I said, Mr. Zong?"
Zongze was very unhappy when he saw Cui Er acting so familiar here.
Originally, he didn't believe that Cui Er could do such a thing, and now he felt that it was an insult to Cui Er to have a relationship with him here. However, since he was brought by the Yamen to handle disputes, he had to bite the bullet. Go ask people for their opinions.
"Don't say anything yet. I asked them, but I didn't ask you. When I ask you again, it will be too late for you to say anything."
Zongze's tone was obviously dissatisfied with Cui Er, and Cui Er took a step back when Shanshan heard this.
"Okay, the little one is waiting here, waiting for the county magistrate to prove my innocence. Give me justice, I am really pitiful!"
Cui Er kept crying here that he was pitiful. Zongze looked at him and his teeth were itching with hatred.
"If you weren't such a messy person who comes to make trouble every day, I would have to give you a few blows first. But as a county magistrate, I really can't seek personal gain and cheat like this, alas!"
But when Zongze sighed here, Yue'er took a step forward before anyone could speak.
"This is what happened to County Magistrate Zong. I was returning to Yancheng from other places. On the way, I happened to meet Zhao Da from Zhaojia Village, who was pulling a carriage to sell salted fish in the county town.
It's just that the road is a bit far. I saw that he was dragging the carriage with people, and I couldn't bear it, so I asked my guards to use war horses to pull the carriage into the city to sell it, so that he could sell it as soon as possible and then go home. The family is making this salted fish together.
In order to sell better, I also came forward to sell with him, but this man was so ignorant that he wanted to steal our war horses. Was it wrong for me to hit him? This is a war horse! "
Yue'er was biting the word "war horse" here again and said that the eyes of the Yamen present were twitching.
"What on earth do you do! What kind of identity do you have, why do you open and close your mouth like a war horse?
Even Zhe Chongfu soldiers would not dare to take out their own horses for fear that they would be without horses when they went on an expedition.
How does it look like you? Pointing casually that this is a war horse. "
Just when the yamen servant was helpless here, Zongze saw Yue'er suddenly startled and stood up from his seat after she spoke.
"You...you...you are Miss Xu, are you back?"
Zongze's beaming look made Yue'er already have an idea.
"you know me?"
"Knowing each other."
Zongze hurriedly walked down from the county office: "Why don't you know Miss Xu? You are General Xu's sister. We have been lucky enough to meet Miss Xu once. I didn't expect that in just a few years, Miss Xu has grown up." It’s so graceful and graceful.”
When Zongze said this, the government servant who was standing behind him couldn't help but be surprised, "Miss Xu, General Xu, and they are known to the Yancheng County Magistrate. They can't be that legendary existence, right?"
But just when the officials were surprised, Cui Er was a little confused, but he still pointed at the county magistrate.
"Magistrate Zong, you can't recognize your relatives here. You have to uphold justice for us. I'm being bullied now. How can you recognize the person who bullied me like this? If you do anything wrong, I'll go Chuzhou sues you!"
】
Cui Er said this proudly, and Zongze looked at him fiercely.
"You are so bold, you actually dare to grab the war horse? Come here! Get them first, beat them with fifty slabs and take them to the prison. We will make a decision after reporting them to the Ministry of War."
Zongze's words frightened Cui Er.
"You, you actually avenge yourself publicly. I won't let you go. My brother is working in Chuzhou. You have to think about these things carefully."
"So what if your brother works in Chuzhou?"
Zongze also broke a jar here and pointed at Yue'er and said to Cui Er.
"This is our Yancheng General Xu's sister. Do you know what kind of general this is? Do you still dare to act recklessly here and steal his guard's war horse? I have already said that this is a war horse! Stealing a war horse privately is a serious crime. .
I, the county government, can't convict you of your crime, so I have to write to the Ministry of War to convict you of robbing a war horse.
But even if your brother knows about your snatching battle? Doesn't he dare to speak for you? "
When Zongze said this here, Cui Er was instantly frightened.
War horse?
How could I have snatched the war horse?
But when I think about the war horses, I shiver all over.
Zongze looked at Cui Er who was already scared and was about to say something more, but Cui Er's expression changed strangely.
"You have already said that these are war horses, but this young lady from the general's family dares to let soldiers be his bodyguards. Does this make sense? She also casually uses military horses to do small business. Even if she files a lawsuit with the Ministry of War, I am not afraid of you! You guys It’s also very courageous!”
The guard who came out looked at Cui Er and said this, and turned his head to look at him.
"I am brave."
"What are you going to do? What are you going to say? I'm not afraid!"
Cui Er looked at the guard who was approaching and raised his head. He said, "If you want to threaten me, I'm not afraid. There's someone above me. At worst, I'll report it to the Ministry of War to see who will be dealt with."
The guard smiled at this.
"Do you know why we are protecting her?"
"Hmph! I don't care! I only know that this is an abuse of power, and we will sue."
Cui Er was still holding his neck here as if he was right, which made Zongze very helpless. When Zongze was about to teach him a lesson, Cui Er looked at Zongze.
"Don't even think about hitting me. I am also a victim, but you don't deal with this evil person who abuses his power. Instead, you want to hit me, the victim, fifty times. I am not done with you."
Seeing how confident Cui Er was, the guard chuckled.
"I followed the order of my county magistrate to escort the young lady to Zhaojia Village, Yancheng, Chuzhou. My county magistrate also came to Chuzhou to take up the post of county magistrate."
When he said this, Cui Er was not an ignorant person. His expression changed instantly and he still grasped a bad point.
"County magistrate? But there is no way to mobilize the army to do this private matter. Many people do this when you come back, but if you don't put it out in the open, no one will say anything. If you put it out in the open, this is a big deal. question."
Cui Er said here, "So what if your master is the county magistrate? I won't be afraid of him."
Seeing Cui Er who was confident here, the guard said again, "You misunderstood. We were arranged by the county magistrate to guard her, and we were arranged by the master. Our master..."
But before he finished speaking, Cui Er said here, "Oh, look how big this thing is. The county magistrate actually arranged for the mobilization of troops and horses. What is this for?"
But when Cui Er said this in such a sinister manner, a bad thought suddenly flashed in his mind.
"Isn't your master the same general as his brother?"
Yue'er couldn't help but laugh when she saw Cui Er actually pointing at her and saying that Li Jing was her brother.
"Interesting. If you really let their master know what you said, he might immediately come from the North to fight with you."
At this moment, everyone was a little confused, but the guard said here.
"My county magistrate is the second son of the Duke of Wei. Our master is Li Jing, the general of the Duke of Wei at that time. We are the personal soldiers of General Li Jing. Can't the soldiers go out to protect the young master and follow the young master's arrangements to protect him? Princess?"
After the guard finished speaking, everyone was still here, shocked by what these people said.
Why are the young masters of the Duke of Wei suddenly involved, and the Duke of Wei is involved? These people are the soldiers of the Duke of Wei, so there is no surprise. Even if you are not the soldiers of the Duke of Wei, you will be sued. Duke Wei is involved in the matter of the Ministry of War going there. The Ministry of War has to weigh it carefully. It doesn’t matter what official you are in Chuzhou. Your brother has caused trouble. Even if you are the governor of Chuzhou, you will not be able to compare with this general. Just like an ant.
But just when everyone digested the matter and Cui Er fell to the ground, pointing at Yue'er and saying nothing, Yue'er's two maids really quit.
"You are brave. This is the current princess. You dare to accuse her like this. What do you want to do?"
When the two maids said this, everyone realized what the guards said just now. Duke Wei arranged for them to protect their young master when he became the county magistrate, and after their young master became the county magistrate, he arranged for them to protect the princess. .
Is this girl the group leader?
My dear, what is going on?
Wasn't she Xu Yunyan's sister originally? How come you suddenly became the princess? If she is the princess, she is the prince's daughter, and Xu Yunyan and she are brother and sister, so they are the prince's sons. Their father is the prince named Xu, and there is no prince named Xu in this dynasty. There is only one whose surname is Xu and whose surname is Li. The Duke of the country.
Shouldn't the son and daughter of the Duke have such status?
The county magistrate Zongze was confused about the situation for a while, but he still waved his hand.
"Put these bastards in jail first, and then go to the court to make a decision. They actually dared to steal the war horses guarded by the princess. They are committing a heinous crime!"
After Zongze's words, Cui Er was completely dejected and did not dare to say anything.
