The shameless female county magistrate shocked the government and the public
Chapter 31 Play with Him
The fire burned until dawn. Yu Jiuer's heart was bleeding. More than ten thousand taels of silver and more than a month's hard work!
Looking at the greenhouses that were burned to ashes, she was shaking with anger. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that this was definitely set on fire intentionally.
"Who the hell did this wicked thing?" Cheng A Niang, with her face covered in black and gray, sat on the ground and cried hysterically.
She and Old Man Cheng are the ones who are responsible for managing the greenhouse. They usually take care of the greenhouse as if it were their own eyeballs. But now, they are so heartbroken that they point to the sky and curse.
The workers also had sad faces and cursed.
"Old man Cheng was injured while putting out the fire. Hurry up and help him into the house for Doctor Liu to bandage him." Yu Jiuer quickly calmed down and comforted everyone, "Don't be sad, I will definitely get back what I lost! The arsonist will not escape!"
But the people were already extremely anxious and just wanted to catch the arsonist as soon as possible and compensate for the losses.
Yu Jiuer did not try to persuade him anymore. She quickly went with her second uncle, the yamen runners and Wang Meng to survey the area around the greenhouse, looking for clues.
Finally, Yu Jiuer said with a sullen face: "This is an organized and premeditated arson case! More than a hundred greenhouses caught fire at the same time, it must not be done by one person. I can't think of anyone else who can have this ability and come and go freely without anyone noticing except the people from Xiguanying!"
"Why are the people from Xiguanying hostile to our Yinshan County?" The second uncle racked his brains but couldn't figure it out.
Yu Jiuer snorted coldly and said coldly: "They are not enemies of Yinshan County, but enemies of Prince Jing!
Ever since Yinshan County became the fief of Prince Jing, we have been inseparable from him. If Yinshan County is good, it is Prince Jing's credit; if Yinshan County is bad, Prince Jing cannot escape blame. I am afraid that we have become pawns for some people to eliminate dissidents."
"Could it be Pan Yang who was sent by the eldest prince? How dare he be so blatant?" The second uncle suddenly realized.
"What is there to be afraid of? Now he is just burning the shed. I'm worried that he may have more vicious tricks." Yu Jiuer thought of something even more terrifying.
Wang Meng asked hurriedly: "What else does he want to do?"
"Destroy Yinshan County and then blame it on Prince Jing's dereliction of duty to achieve the goal of striking him down."
Hearing this, everyone turned pale with fear.
The second uncle asked, shaking his legs: "How dare he? Is there no law?"
Yu Jiuer sneered: "The king's law? The powerful are the king's law! If the people of Yinshan die for no reason, Pan Yang only needs to write a letter saying that we are infected with the plague and he can easily get rid of it under the cover of the eldest prince."
"So can we just sit there and wait to die?" Wang Meng's voice was trembling.
"Of course we can't just wait to die!" Yu Jiuer rubbed her swollen temples and said with a headache, "We have to use the opponent's force to fight the opponent! Let Prince Jing come forward and help us deal with Pan Yang! I hope Prince Jing's "decadence" is cured!"
Someone asked, "What should we do now?" Everyone was very worried.
Yu Jiuer stroked her belly and said, "I can't appear in front of Prince Jing in my current state, so I need all the people to go to Prince Jing's mansion to petition! Let Prince Jing make the decision for our Yinshan County!"
Wang Meng asked: "That's no problem, but if you don't show up for such a big event, will Prince Jing be suspicious?"
"You will spread the news that 'the county magistrate was burned to death while putting out a fire'! I will plan for you from behind!" Yu Jiuer's brain was working at high speed, and she continued to give orders.
"I will dictate, and Uncle Er will write the petition for you! Remember, no matter what Prince Jing gives you, you must take it, and don't complain! Whether it's money or food, I will accept it!"
"Okay! Then I'll go call everyone to gather now!" Wang Meng bowed and immediately went to prepare.
Yu Jiuer said to her second uncle, "Pan Yang might turn the tables and say that we didn't supervise him well enough, so we have to strike first. I will organize the evidence I have collected, and you can send someone to Liangzhou to beat the drum and complain. No matter whether Governor Liang responds or not, we should make the matter public first."
"it is good!"
Everyone left. Yu Jiuer sat on the chair with her chin resting on her hand in a daze. She didn't even hear Cheng Ming calling her several times.
"What are you thinking about so intently?"
"Thinking about how to spend the money!" Yu Jiuer sat up straight, looking tired.
Cheng Ming sneered without giving any face: "You are wondering how your money will last until the New Year, right?"
Yu Jiuer sighed, "I really don't have much money left! I'm afraid we can't escape this time! If we drive away one Pan Yang, there will probably be another one coming. As long as Yinshan County is still the fief of Prince Jing, we won't have a good life!"
"Don't be so sad, it's just a few hundred greenhouses that burned down," Cheng Ming tried to comfort. "When I woke up this morning, someone told me that he saw the flames rising to the sky from the Great Wall bunker last night. I was so scared that I ran over here without even washing my face. Fortunately, no one was killed!"
"No one has been killed now, but it's hard to say what will happen in the future!" Yu Jiuer analyzed the current situation to him.
Cheng Ming was frightened after hearing this, his voice trembling: "No, no way?"
"It's better to believe it than not to believe it! We still have to take precautions early!" Yu Jiuer pinched her sore nose. She didn't expect that she would be drawn into the vortex of political struggle even though she was far away from the capital. How unlucky!
"How can we prevent it? You can't be like an old hen and protect all the people like chicks under your wings, right?"
"Why not?" Yu Jiuer said seriously, "Yinshan County has only about 5,000 people, and the farm now occupies more than half of the population, with more than 1,000 people left. After the autumn harvest, I will tear down the old town not far from the farm and rebuild it, so that as many people as possible can live near the farm."
Cheng Ming: "Aren't you afraid that he will kill you all if you get together?"
Yu Jiuer tapped the table with her fingers and said, "It's better than letting him annihilate them one by one! Gathering together, we can take care of each other and guard against danger together. Besides, with Prince Jing at the scene, Pan Yang will always be a little wary."
Cheng Ming noticed that Yu Jiuer often made this little move when she was thinking about something, so he stopped bothering her. Just as he was about to comfort his parents who were slightly injured, Wang Meng rushed in with a panicked look on his face:
"Sir, what should we do if Prince Jing won't open the door and won't even show his face?"
Yu Jiuer sneered: "Since he wants to act, let's play with him!"
After a pause, she continued, "If he doesn't open the door, just keep filming until he opens it. The louder the noise, the better! Put up a banner at his door, and I'll write the content for you.
Call more old, weak, sick and disabled people, and call those who were burned just now, and go to the gate of Prince Jing's mansion to make a scene of crying, making a scene, and hanging yourself! Act as miserable as you can! Oh, and let Doctor Liu bandage their wounds more miserably. "
When the situation got out of hand, Jun Mo had the excuse of "unable to bear it any longer" to offer help.
Cheng Ming asked in confusion: "How do you know Prince Jing is acting?"
"Do you really believe that a decisive killing god would become decadent just because the emperor took away his military power and reprimanded him a few words?" Yu Jiuer asked back.
"Why don't you believe it?" Cheng Ming's straightforwardness didn't allow him to beat around the bush.
"You are so pitiful! Be careful not to get sold out and help others count money!" Yu Jiuer was speechless.
It's not that she is arrogant, she just feels that in Yinshan County, the only person with the same IQ as her is Prince Jing.
She really wanted to fight him face to face and experience the pleasure of being evenly matched, but unfortunately their first encounter was too "beautiful" and she felt uneasy unconsciously whenever she saw him.
Before dark, Wang Meng finally brought his men back and reported the battle situation in a hoarse voice: "Finally, the steward of Prince Jing's Mansion came out, threw a silver note of 20,000 taels to the county magistrate, and sent us away, saying that we were too noisy!"
"Got it! Now that we have the money, let's rebuild the shed tomorrow!" Yu Jiuer seemed to have expected this. She stood up and stretched her sore waist. "Tell everyone to go back and rest! Don't worry about anything today. We'll work tomorrow!"
“But, but…” Some people were still worried, hesitating to speak, with a worried look on their faces.
"Don't worry! Prince Jing is not a heartless person who abandons the people. You can ask the people who came back from the West Sea coast and you will know. On the way back, Prince Jing even made us a roasted pig! Prince Jing will deal with the arsonist."
Yu Jiuer's words were so convincing that the people's anxious hearts were indeed relieved.
After comforting the people, Yu Jiuer got up and went home to rest.
As she expected, Jun Mo would not kill Pan Yang now.
After all, it is better to leave a fool who is eager for quick success here than for the enemy to send a smart one to cause trouble for him.
"Pan Yang, you're still getting a bargain!" Yu Jiuer was lying on the bed, drowsy and still muttering to herself, "I have to find a way to collect some interest back."
