Queen Mother, she just wants to lie down

"Uncle, a person's life is a process of gambling.

If you bet on the wrong thing, you will definitely make the other three angry and bring about their suppression.

But no matter how much they suppress us, they dare not put our Chen family to death.

In addition to my fifth uncle, our Chen family also has a new Jinshi and two Juren. They dare not kill them all.

But if the bet is right, our Chen family will not only be able to avoid a disaster that will destroy the family, but the future Qingsha gentry family may become headed by our Chen family. "Chen Lie took a breath and spoke slowly.

Uncle Chen didn't say anything, but his gaze towards Chen Lie was extremely complicated.

Maybe their generation is really old and can’t keep up with the times.

......

Dongtai Street, in the Xinyang Inn where Ruan Qing stayed.

Jiang Benlei, who had just returned from outside, kowtowed to Ruan Qing as soon as he entered the door.

"Mr. Jiang, what are you doing? Get up quickly." Ruan Qingwei, who was chatting with Queqi and Zhaoping, was startled.

Since being acquitted, Jiang Benlei entrusted his daughter to Ruan Qing's care and left Qingsha by himself. He just returned today.

"Jiang has an unreasonable request, and I hope you can fulfill it." Jiang Benlei did not stand up. After he kowtowed, he looked up at Ruan Qing and spoke.

He already knew Ruan Qing's identity from his daughter.

"You saved my life, please let me know if you have any requests.

As long as it does not violate the laws of the country and my principles as a human being, I can do it." Ruan Qing said.

"I want to be a constable for Magistrate Ma, and I would also like to trouble you to take care of Xiaoyu for me for three years.

Three years later, as long as I am still alive, I will go and bring her back.

If, if a certain family is gone, please help her find a suitable family so that she can live a stable life. " Jiang Benlei said this and kowtowed again.

He retired from society for more than ten years, but those people still wouldn't give in.

In this case, we can only deal with the enemy head-on.

At this moment, he was extremely grateful that he had saved the Queen Mother by chance.

If the Queen Mother had not been saved, the enemy would have already been at the doorstep, and my daughter would have had no one to rely on. If she was not careful, she would have been implicated and killed.

"I can promise to take care of Xiaoyu. Even if you want to be my bodyguard, I can agree to that.

The only thing is that I can't make the decision for Magistrate Ma regarding serving as a constable. The most I can do is to help you make some connections.

Whether Magistrate Ma is willing to accept you is up to him to decide. "Ruan Qing was silent for a while before speaking.

She is not from the underworld and does not understand the affairs of the underworld.

I only heard from Queqi and Jiang Yuan that, generally speaking, people from the underworld would not take the initiative to provoke the government, and the government would not interfere in the grudges between the underworld.

Jiang Benlei was once quite famous in the martial arts world. Looking at his current appearance, it was most likely that his old enemies had come to visit him.

If Ma Ziliang was afraid of getting involved in underworld trouble and was unwilling to accept him, she wouldn't force him.

“Thank you for your appreciation, sir. However, as a commoner in the martial arts world, I don’t know the rules, so I’m afraid I’m not qualified to be at your side and wait for orders.

The main duty of a constable is to catch criminals and bandits, which is in line with my personality.

However, whether County Magistrate Ma is willing to take in a certain family is naturally entirely up to him.

As for my personal grievances, I will also make them clear with Magistrate Ma before I take up the post." Jiang Benlei said.

If he were still alone, he would not be afraid of anyone.

The enemy wanted to find trouble, so they just went to kill us.

If he continues to refuse to give in, we could just wipe out his entire family.

But he now has a daughter, if he just kills people without any care.

If she is wanted by the government, it will bring trouble to my daughter for the rest of her life.

The best way is to borrow the power of the government and catch the other party in one fair and square way.

In this way, he could relieve himself of worries and also prevent his daughter from being implicated by himself.

"In that case, come with me to the county government office later." Seeing that he had thought everything through, Ruan Qing would not say anything else.

She hadn't been to the county government office for the past two days, so she wanted to go over and take a look at the situation.

When Ruan Qing and his party came over, Ma Ziliang was meeting guests.

The guest was none other than the uncle and nephew of the Chen family.

When he heard someone come to report that Ruan Qing had arrived, he was delighted and looked up at the Chen family uncle and nephew and said, "Please wait a moment, I have something urgent to do and will be here soon."

The uncle and nephew of the Ma family came to confess their crimes and surrender, but he could not make the decision on his own, and the Queen Mother came at the right time.

"Master Ma, please go and get busy first." Uncle Chen said hurriedly.

Ma Ziliang came to the hall in the backyard and bowed to Ruan Qing first: "Meet the Madam."

"No need to be so polite. I heard that you were meeting a guest. I hope I'm not disturbing you." Ruan Qing waved his hand.

"No, I just happen to have something that I need your advice on," said Ma Ziliang.

The only ones who came with Ruan Qing were Queqi, Jiang Yuan, and Jiang Benlei.

Queqi and Jiang Yuan naturally didn't need to avoid suspicion. Jiang Benlei said with great tact, "You guys chat first. I'll go outside for a walk."

Having said that, he walked out.

"But the Chen family came to confess their guilt?" After Jiang Benlei left, Ruan Qing asked Ma Ziliang with a smile.

"You know? Could this be related to you..." Ma Ziliang was stunned.

“It has nothing to do with me. I just happen to know Chen Wenpeng. Although he does not hold a high position, he is a very smart and cautious person.

And Chen Lie from their family is also a very perceptive person who knows how to judge the situation. "Ruan Qing shook his head.

Chen Wenpeng's official position was not high because he had not been in office for long.

Chen Wenpeng is 33 years old now. He passed the imperial examination at the age of 28.

In just five years, he rose from a local official to a sixth-rank censor in the capital, which was already very impressive.

“It was them. The uncle and nephew of the Chen family confessed their guilt right away, saying that it was indeed the clan member who was responsible for paying taxes who was blinded by greed.

The high-quality land that was required to pay taxes was changed to low-quality land, and they were willing to accept the punishment.

They also said that the fertile land that the Chen family purchased three years ago was originally intended to help the victims tide over their difficulties.

Now that the difficulties are over, they should naturally return the land to the people.

As long as the people are willing to take it back, they can pay the original price. If they don’t have enough money, they can pay it in installments without interest. ” Ma Ziliang said.

"Apart from the Chen family, are there any other people coming? For example, the Zheng family?" Ruan Qing asked again.

Ma Ziliang shook his head.

“Since no one else is here, let’s try these cases as soon as possible. Using tax evasion as a breakthrough point, we can uncover all the evidence of their crimes over the years.

Those who should be killed will be killed, and those whose properties should be confiscated will have their properties confiscated. If you don’t have enough manpower, I will lend you some.

As for the Chen family, since they are so sensible, it is naturally not easy to make things difficult for them.

However, tax evasion is a serious crime in our dynasty, but considering that they took the initiative to promise to make a mistake first, and have also helped the disaster victims in other towns, we will make up for all the tax evasion in these years at 50 times, and let this matter go by the wayside. "Ruan Qing said calmly.
