The shameless female county magistrate shocked the government and the public
Chapter 104 The cat and mouse game begins
Jian Er sensed Yu Jiuer's anger, took two steps back, and said, "You can't hit me. We both hold the same official rank in the Great Dong Dynasty. Fighting between officials is against the law! How shameful!"
"Are you going to tell it or not? Do you have to wait until the enemy takes control of Yinshan County before you regret it?" Yu Jiuer said while gnashing her teeth.
Seeing Yu Jiuer raising her fist to hit him, Jian Er hurriedly said, "I'll tell you!"
It’s not that he couldn’t beat the county magistrate, but he was afraid that the prince would take revenge on him later.
Jian Er shrank his neck and said honestly, "The Third Prince's mother, Concubine Xiang, is a princess from Miaojiang. This time, there was some friction between Miaojiang and our dynasty in the southern border, and she wanted to take the opportunity to instigate the emperor to eliminate all of our prince's forces in the southern border!
The prince did not tell you when he set out because the news was not confirmed. It was not until a few days ago that the prince returned to the capital at full speed and confirmed the news. He then quickly sent pigeons everywhere to warn everyone to be careful!"
Yu Jiuer understood: "However, his letter is still too late! The Fragrant Concubine might have been preparing to deal with Yinshan County when we set up the station."
Yu Jiuer lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then raised her head and asked Jian Er again,
"Your prince has risked his life to return to the capital but cannot show up. Could it be that he is planning to secretly hold the Third Prince hostage and force Concubine Xiang to compromise?"
"The prince does have this plan!" Jian Er nodded and gave Yu Jiuer an admiring look. She was worthy of being the apple of the prince's eye and was indeed extremely smart.
Thinking back to how I had tried so hard to hide the truth from her, I couldn't help but find it a little ridiculous. I guess she must have already guessed it in her mind.
After hearing Jian Er's words, Yu Jiuer's heart was filled with rage. She wanted to cry out for justice, to condemn the imperial power, to overthrow this infuriating system, but she could do nothing. She could only watch as Concubine Xiang regarded them as Jun Mo's weaknesses and sent people to sneak into Yinshan to capture them all in one fell swoop.
But is she someone who accepts her fate?
There is no such thing as accepting fate in her life creed, otherwise she would have died long ago!
Yu Jiuer took a deep breath and told Jian Er, "Go back and protect Concubine Duan! On our side, fortunately the prince had the foresight to leave me 3,000 cavalrymen, most of whom have returned. The game of cat and mouse is about to begin!"
Shortly after Jian Er left, Cheng An brought the prisoners in and prepared for a meeting.
The returning cavalrymen also lined up outside the county government office, ready to be on standby at any time!
They were filled with regret for bringing the enemy in without conducting a thorough investigation.
This mistake was a great humiliation for them. They would definitely find out the enemy without Yu Jiuer's instructions.
Otherwise, they may not even be able to raise their heads in the next few years!
Yu Jiuer called the prisoners to the Yamen training ground and said straight to the point:
"I called you here today to tell you that Prince Jing has political enemies who have pretended to be your family members and sneaked into Yinshan County. Some of them may be your so-called family members, and some may not have found a reasonable identity and are hiding in the dark!"
Yu Jiuer's words were like a bolt from the blue, catching the prisoners off guard and making them stiff all over!
They were finally reunited, how could it be fake?
"If the people around you are fake, then it means that your real relatives may have been killed by them and are in danger! Therefore, if you don't want to recognize the thieves as your descendants and don't want to be kept in the dark and used by the enemy, then cooperate with this official and the county magistrate to find the enemy quickly! ......"
After Yu Jiuer's analysis, the prisoners finally understood the current situation and nodded: "Don't worry, sir, we will fully cooperate with you in any way you want to find it!"
After several rounds of screening, they finally narrowed the scope to fifteen people.
These fifteen people included both men and women, all around twenty years old. Their mothers had died, and they found the station by themselves and were brought there by the cavalry.
It just so happened that the prisoners corresponding to them were people who had been away from home for more than ten years and could not recognize them.
Yu Jiuer held back her anger and ordered the cavalry: "Knock out these fifteen men immediately and tie them up for me. I will catch those cunning rats and make them compete with old cows in plowing the fields until they die!"
The cavalry brought by these fifteen people received the task and immediately slipped out.
But when the prisoners heard this, they became anxious: "What if one of these fifteen people is real? Wouldn't our children die unjustly?"
Yu Jiuer comforted him, "Don't worry! I'm not a corrupt official. I won't kill innocent people without a thorough investigation! After these fifteen people are taken away, go back and tell their families about the situation so that everyone can be more vigilant!"
The prisoners who were selected as having family problems were all disheartened. If the fifteen people selected were fake, then where were their real relatives?
Some prisoners couldn't help crying:
"Oh my God! This is going to make me childless!"
"I thought good days were coming, but God is playing tricks on me!"
"I'm sorry! I was inconsiderate and made you sad!" Yu Jiuer felt guilty and said to the prisoner, "I will send someone to your hometown right away and ask them to come and find your relatives for you!"
The prisoner shook his head and said sadly, "Don't blame me, sir! You have helped us enough. You are not a god, so how can you predict the danger? We can only blame ourselves for being born at the wrong time and for our shallow fate with our relatives!"
These words were like a sharp sword, piercing Yu Jiuer's heart.
She felt sorry for the families who were killed. Happiness was right before their eyes, but what they got was a rope to kill them! How innocent the people were!
It was all her fault. She didn't think it through and set up stations in various places in the Dadong Dynasty with great fanfare, exposing the target to the enemy and giving the enemy an opportunity to take advantage!
Damn it!
Being in the vortex of imperial power, you must think twice before doing anything in the future!
After the meeting, the second uncle sighed: "We can find out these fifteen people in the open, but what about the people hiding in the dark? And the two people who pretended to be Wang Xi and Wang Xiao have not been arrested yet, what should we do?"
"Let's interrogate those fifteen people first and find out Concubine Xiang's plan!" Yu Jiuer's brows were stern.
The cavalry acted quickly. In less than an incense stick of time, they had knocked out the fifteen selected people without anyone noticing and carried them over.
"Splash water to wake him up!"
Following Yu Jiuer's instructions, several large basins of water were poured directly on them.
After waking up, the fifteen people looked confused and kept shouting, "Sir, what crime have we committed? Why did you knock us out and carry us here? It's unfair!"
"What do you think?" Yu Jiuer's face showed a sinister look, which made the fifteen people shrink back.
I only heard Yu Jiuer order: "Lock them up separately, guard them strictly, and interrogate them one by one!"
Someone jumped up anxiously: "Sir, you can't lock us up! We are the prisoners' family members, didn't you say you would take care of us? You can't go back on your word!"
Yu Jiuer was too lazy to talk nonsense with him and signaled Yueying with her eyes.
Yueying knocked the man unconscious with one palm strike, cleanly and neatly.
"Is it quiet now? You know whether it is unjust or not! What awaits you is a cruel and brutal punishment. If you are sensible, confess voluntarily. I can still give you a way out. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"
After the fifteen people were taken away, my second uncle asked, "Do we have to interrogate them one by one?"
Yu Jiuer laughed coldly and said, "How do you interrogate me? Do you want to force a confession by torture?"
"How can they confess without torture?" Second Uncle stared at Yu Jiuer in astonishment, "Can they confess by locking them up?"
"What about starving them, scaring them, and frightening them?" Yu Jiuer already had an idea in mind. "After all, there may really be family members inside. We can't be impulsive!"
