Ancheng County Government Office.
It is spring in March, the peach blossoms are beautiful, and the magpies announce the spring.
The stone lion in front of the Yamen Gate is covered with moss, but it still exudes majesty.
It was noon, inside the inner hall.
On a soft couch, a young man was lying on his stomach sideways. His official robe was messy and his black gauze hat had fallen to the floor.
There was just a lustful smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he was recalling something unspeakable.
But when Jiang Cheng opened his eyes, what he saw was a classical study room, with pens, inks, papers and inkstones neatly displayed on the desk, and one or two ancient vases placed on the bookshelf.
"Fuck! Where is this?"
Jiang Cheng was so shocked that he was watching an action movie from an island country in his room, but when he woke up, he ended up in such a ghost place.
"it hurts!"
Suddenly, a strange memory flooded into his mind, and Jiang Cheng felt a splitting headache.
"Jiangcheng, I took part in the provincial examination in the fifth year of Taisho and passed the examination."
"In the autumn of the seventh year of Taisho, I took part in the palace examination, ranked among the top three, and was selected into the Hanlin Academy."
"At the beginning of the eighth year of Taisho, he offended Princess Pingyang and was demoted to Ancheng County as the county magistrate."
"Now is the tenth year of Taisho. In the past three years since I was an official, I have colluded with the squires. I have been an unkind official and preyed on the common people. I have become notorious."
…
"Damn it! Turns out my predecessor was so awesome!"
Jiang Cheng was so surprised that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear.
At the age of sixteen, he took part in the provincial examination and became a qualified candidate.
This was definitely considered a genius in ancient times.
Jiang Cheng knew very well how difficult the imperial examination was in ancient times. It was much more difficult than the college entrance examination.
He became a Jinshi at the age of eighteen.
It's a pity that his fate was not good, and he actually offended the powerful people in the court.
Princess Pingyang.
That's a powerful woman.
That woman is stunningly beautiful, but she is a poor man.
After three husbands, he either burped on the wedding night or died mysteriously before the wedding.
Princess Pingyang became what people called the "lost star". No one dared to marry her, and she devoted herself to gaining power.
Back then, Jiang Cheng was still a high-spirited young man. When he saw Princess Pingyang wielding power and bullying all officials, he had the courage to petition your Majesty to limit Princess Pingyang's power.
However, before the fold was handed over, Princess Pingyang knew about it.
Soon, Jiang Cheng was demoted to Ancheng County.
From then on, he became disheartened, resigned to the situation, and became a confused county magistrate.
A few days ago, the local Hu Yuanwai sent over a pretty little beauty. Jiang Cheng was about to enjoy her last night, but unexpectedly she died.
Jiang Cheng thought of the fifteen-year-old beauty, and a smile appeared on his lips.
Jiang Cheng is still very satisfied with the status quo. Although he has not traveled through time to become an emperor or a prince, he is a county magistrate, which was considered a big shot in ancient times.
The so-called county magistrate who destroyed the family and the magistrate who destroyed the family. In ancient times, the imperial power did not go to the countryside, and the county magistrate was the local emperor.
Don't be brainwashed by the TV series. You really think that the county magistrate is just a petty official of the seventh grade Sesame Mung Bean.
Just as Jiangcheng was still dreaming about the future, Bantou Zhao suddenly walked into the house hurriedly.
"How can you behave in such a panic?"
Jiang Cheng shouted.
"Sir, there are people playing drums in the county government hall to complain about injustice." Zhao Guyan said.
"Someone beats the drum to complain? Does that require me to review the case?"
Jiang Cheng adjusted his official robes, put on his black gauze hat, and said calmly.
"Huh? Your Excellency, you want to review a case?"
Zhao Guyan was stunned.
In the past three years, County Magistrate Jiang was drunk all day long, rarely tried cases, and made many jokes.
Chen Dianshi has always been the judge of the case.
He came in just to make a routine report.
Suddenly, your Excellency wants to try a case. What kind of madness is this?
It won't be embarrassing or make any jokes.
"Is there any problem?" Jiang Cheng asked.
"No problem." Zhao Guyan said.
County government lobby.
A group of government officials were panicked when they heard that the master was personally trying the case today.
All the government officials arranged their clothes in a panic, standing in a row with killing sticks in hand.
When Jiang Cheng arrived at the lobby, he found that there were thick spider webs under the plaque hanging above the mirror, and even the gavel had some dust on it.
"Bring the prisoner up." Jiang Cheng patted the gavel.
"Powerful!"
The yamen servants said in unison, and instantly the majestic atmosphere came up in the yamen.
"Ding! The ultimate merit system has been activated!"
Host: Jiangcheng
Official rank: seventh grade
Merit points: 0
Martial Arts: None
Intelligence: 86
Stamina: 25
As a crisp prompt sounded, an attribute panel appeared in Jiang Cheng's mind.
IQ is okay.
After all, I also went to college in my previous life. Although it was not 985, it was still 211.
Moreover, the owner of this body passed the examination at the age of sixteen.
However, this stamina value is only 25, even the average farmer's stamina value is 40.
As expected, he was a weak scholar, unable to lift it with his shoulders or carry it with his hands.
Jiang Cheng was pleasantly surprised. He didn't expect that the legendary system would actually come to him.
The so-called merit means doing good deeds and being a good official.
"Ding! This system officially releases the mission - the cattle stealing case!"
"Difficulty: Beginner level."
"Reward: 100 merit points and a gift package for beginners."
"Entry level, it shouldn't be difficult. With this system, haha, I will be able to take revenge on Princess Pingyang."
Jiang Cheng merged the memory of his predecessor, so this hatred was naturally inherited.
He has not forgotten how Princess Pingyang dealt with him.
He was imprisoned in a dark prison for more than a month and suffered a lot. Princess Pingyang would not have released him if several officials from his hometown had not begged for mercy and his father had spent a large sum of money.
Finally, for the sake of one hundred thousand taels of silver, Princess Pingyang agreed to the matter.
"You little bitch, when I return to the capital, I'm going to swell your little butt!"
Jiang Cheng sneered in his heart.
However, Jiang Cheng is a little nervous now.
Now, at the gate of the yamen, many people gathered to watch. They came to listen to the sound of drums.
This trial must be conducted beautifully.
However, it is really strange for the people to see the county magistrate suddenly start a case.
"This dog officer actually tried the case."
"What case will he try? It might be another muddled lawsuit."
"Has he made enough jokes?"
At this time, Zhao Guyan brought the prisoner over.
I saw a sixty-year-old man with a stooped figure, gray hair, and wearing shabby common clothes walking over.
Behind him was an old-fashioned young man, holding a straw in his mouth and leading a small ox, and walked over gracefully.
Following behind the two men was a gentle middle-aged man with a fair face and a thick beard under his chin.
Only then did Jiang Cheng remember that this was his master.
Li Wenbin.
"Sir, I want to sue Niu Er for stealing cattle."
After the old man knelt down, he cried bitterly and said loudly.
"Wang Laowu, don't talk nonsense. You said this is your cow. Do you have evidence? Just scream, will this cow agree?"
Niu Er was arrogant and shouted triumphantly.
