Quick-travel system: The host is having a blast in the small world

Just after finishing a pot of tea, someone knocked on the door and called "Young Master". No need to ask, this is what the Zhang family calls him.

Lin Dai stood up and said, "I'll hide inside." Then she walked behind the screen in the room. Seeing that Lin Dai was hiding, Zhang Dacai replied, "Come in."

After the servant came in, he closed the door again, walked up to Zhang Da and whispered, "Master, you asked me to keep an eye on Master Liu and it worked. Not long after Master entered the study, Master Liu secretly went to the county jail by himself and sent the jailer away to meet the bandits alone. However, I couldn't get too close and didn't hear what they said. He came out in less than a quarter of an hour, and I came back to report to Master."

"Okay, I got it. Go back and keep an eye on him and don't let anyone else know." Zhang Da waved his hand and let him leave.

Lin Dai asked the system to check what Liu Qian said to the bandits in the prison. After listening, Lin Dai just felt funny, walked out of the screen and sat on the chair. Zhang Da asked hurriedly: "Master Wuyou, you should have heard what the servant said just now, what should we do next?"

Lin Dai looked at him and smiled but didn't say anything. Zhang Da suddenly felt that something bad had happened and asked nervously, "Did something happen?"

Lin Dai retracted her gaze and said nonchalantly, "It's nothing. Do you want to know what Liu Qian said to the bandits in the prison? It has something to do with you."

"Sir, do you know? Then what did they say?" Hearing that it was related to him, Zhang Da asked a little anxiously.

"Don't worry, it's basically no big deal. We just talked about how to rescue them. Liu Qian promised the bandits that he would release them. He said a few words from him and he would make you release them. He even praised you, saying that you are as obedient as a dog and do whatever he says." Lin Dai told Zhang Da as if she was telling a joke.

After listening to Zhang Daqi's curse, he called Liu Qian an ungrateful bastard.

"Okay, even though it may not sound nice, it's the truth. That's what you did before," Lin Dai said sarcastically.

Zhang Da opened his mouth but couldn't refute, so he changed the subject and asked, "So what should we do next?"

"Tomorrow you send people to the jail to interrogate those bandits and ask them if they have any accomplices. Find their weaknesses and find ways to make them admit that Liu Qian is his accomplice. Do I need to teach you the specific interrogation? As a county magistrate, you should think carefully about how to be a real county magistrate. As for Liu Qian, he will definitely look for you tomorrow. You should also think carefully about how to deal with him. After all, you have suddenly become very abnormal. After you get the results of the interrogation and arrest the relevant personnel, send someone to Yuelai Inn to inform me, and then I will tell you what to do next. Do you have any other questions?" Lin Dai asked before leaving.

How could Zhang Da dare to ask any questions? He just shook his head and said no, and Lin Dai disappeared from the room.

After returning to the inn, Lin Dai went directly into the space to practice. Now Lin Dai's "Snow Dance" practice has begun to show results. Ordinary martial artists are no match for her. Those with better martial arts can fight her to a draw. After all, they are not practicing mortal martial arts. They use internal force while Lin Dai uses spiritual force. She has already practiced spiritual force to the second stage of Qi Refining. Keep up the good work.

Lin Dai didn't care about the outside world these two days, and asked the system to keep an eye on her and not disturb her practice unless there were other accidents. Zhang Da's interrogation of the bandits did not go smoothly at the beginning, and Liu Qian also found out.

When Zhang Da was about to interrogate the bandits the next day, Liu Qian suddenly appeared and stopped him, asking, "Sir, are you going to interrogate those bandits?"

Zhang Da looked at Liu Qian who suddenly appeared, and immediately became alert and asked in a stern voice: "Who told you that?"

Liu Qian laughed and said, "No one, I just heard it by chance. Sir, leave the interrogation to me. There is no need for you, the county magistrate, to go there in person."

Zhang Da snorted. Heard? He thought it was just some family gossip on the street. Only a fool would believe it. Zhang Da realized that Liu Qian must have someone watching him. Now that he thought about it, Liu Qian seemed to have often fooled him in this way before.

He couldn't bear to see his foolish self in the past. He looked at Liu Qian's disgusted face and said, "No need. I will interrogate you personally this time. Since you are here, I have something for you to do. The grain from all the villages has been collected this month. You take people to each village to understand the situation, and then come back to report to me."

"Sir, why don't you just send someone? Do you need me to personally take care of such a small matter?" How could Liu Qian leave at this time?

"Oh, do you think this is a trivial matter? This matter is for the country and the people. Haven't I always wanted to be a good official? You are the person I trust the most, and you are the most suitable person to go. Master Liu, are you unwilling?" After saying this, Zhang Da felt that he now had some brains.

When Liu Qian heard Zhang Da say this, he had no choice but to agree. After all, there was nothing to worry about that idiot Zhang Da.

Zhang Da came to the prison to interrogate the bandit leader and asked directly, "Are you the bandit leader Shi Yong? Who are your accomplices? Don't say you don't have any accomplices. I wouldn't ask you this if I didn't have some information. You'd better tell the truth."

The bandit leader was a man called Shi Yong. In fact, he became a bandit leader only because he was big and good at fighting. He had some brains but not much, and he could hold on for a while. "I don't know what you are talking about. I am just an ordinary citizen."

Zhang Da found him a little funny, as if he saw his past self. Zhang Da leaned back in his chair and said, "Ordinary people? Do you think I'm a fool? Besides, even if you are not a bandit, you are a bandit if I say you are. I guess you don't know how the laws of this dynasty punish bandits. Do you want me to tell you one by one?" Zhang Da learned a lot from Lin Dai.

Shi Yong certainly knew that the laws of this dynasty severely punished bandits. If he was really sentenced... Shi Yong would immediately feel cold all over.

Zhang Da saw that Shi Yong seemed to be hesitating, and continued, "But there is a chance for a reduction in sentence. As long as you give out your accomplices, you will be considered a meritorious person, and your sentence will be reduced. Think about it carefully and tell me when you have made up your mind. Of course, if you are not afraid of death, it's up to you." After that, he had him taken away and left the prison.

After leaving the prison, Zhang Da returned to his parents' home and arranged for the servants to investigate Liu Qian's actions and try to find evidence. The people in the county government didn't know who were Liu Qian's men, so Zhang Da didn't dare to use them now. The people at home were still trustworthy.

Lin Dai stayed in the inn for two days, and then she heard the waiter say that someone was looking for her. It seemed that Zhang Da had resolved the issue. This time, Lin Dai went directly to Zhang Da openly. When she arrived at the government office, Zhang Da was already waiting for her at the door. It was the first time for Zhang Da to see Lin Dai in the daytime, and he was a little uncomfortable. When he saw Lin Dai coming, he hurried forward to greet her: "Mr. Wuyou, you are here, please come in."

Lin Dai walked in slowly and asked, "How come you have done everything I asked you to do?"

"It's done, it's all done. I have arrested Liu Qian, and also some of his minions. Now we are just waiting for you to make a decision." Zhang Da was very happy at this moment. He finally did a great thing.

"Hmm? Are you sure there's nothing wrong?" Lin Dai asked the system to check it just in case. After making sure there was nothing wrong, she said to Zhang Da, "Go to the study."

Zhang Da led Lin Dai to the study, went in, closed the door and asked, "What do you want, sir?"

"Zhang Da, now that the matter has been settled, we just have to think about how they should be sentenced. But I don't think you have the ability to sentence so many people to serious crimes at once." It's not that Lin Dai underestimated him. Zhang Da hadn't tried any cases since he took office. Even if he had, they were all trivial matters. Cases like this had to be reported to the higher-ups.

Zhang Da was making tea for Lin Dai. When he heard her say that, he knew what she meant. Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked her for advice at this time. He handed the teacup to Lin Dai and nodded, saying, "That's true. So I want to ask you, sir, how should we solve this problem?"

"Now write a letter to Shen Qing, the magistrate of Qingyang County, and tell him the whole story. Also tell him about your purchase of the official position. This is to prevent any trouble in the future and ask him to help resolve the matter." Lin Dai suddenly felt that she was cheating someone, and the person she was cheating was Shen Qing.

Zhang Da was a little confused and asked, "Who is this Shen Qing? What is his background? He is also a small county magistrate, and he is not from the same prefecture. Is this okay?"

Lin Dai replied, "Of course, this man is the eldest son of the Shangshu Mansion in the capital, and he has the support of the current emperor. Do you think his background is powerful? But that's not enough. When you write the letter, please mention my name, Master Wuyou. I think Shen Qing will understand. Well, you don't need to ask more questions. Just write now. I will deliver the letter after you finish writing it." Lin Dai didn't want to waste any more words at this time, and hurriedly urged Zhang Da to write the letter.

Zhang Da didn't ask any more questions and hurried to write the letter. About half an hour later, the letter was finished. Lin Dai took the letter and read it. Seeing that there was no problem, she folded it and put it in an envelope, and asked the system to send it directly to Shen Qing's study.

Zhang Da watched the letter in Lin Dai's hand disappear out of thin air, and was very surprised. But he didn't ask any more questions, but was more convinced that Lin Dai was not an ordinary person.

After the letter was delivered, Lin Dai told Zhang Da to keep a good look out for those people. There would be news in the next two days, and it would be a good opportunity to tidy up the government office.
