Transformed into a vicious concubine? Being led by the eldest sister is annoying
Chapter 423 Vivid Lesson 1
Zhang Lizheng and Zhang Goudan came to Li Ergou's house in a threatening manner.
Zhang Lizheng's face was full of smiles, but there was a bit of flattery in his smile. He bowed slightly and said to Chen Wang and others: "My dear friends, I am the head of this village. I heard that you are here, so I specially came to invite you to stay in my humble home. Although my humble home is not as big as the big houses in the city, it is still spacious and clean, and I am sure you will feel comfortable."
Zhang Goudan also nodded and bowed beside him, his eyes full of anticipation.
However, King Chen just gave them a cold look and refused without hesitation: "No need, we are fine here."
Zhang Lizheng and Zhang Goudan's faces turned very ugly in an instant, but they did not dare to offend these nobles, so they could only stand there awkwardly, not knowing what to do.
After a while, Zhang Lizheng gritted his teeth and said again: "My lord, you see that Li Ergou's house is really simple and shabby. How can it compare to my humble home? Please do me a favor and come with me to my humble home."
King Chen frowned and said in an even colder voice, "I said I'm not going, so don't bother me anymore."
Zhang Lizheng and Zhang Goudan had no choice but to leave in shame.
Walking on the road, Zhang Lizheng's face was terribly gloomy. He said fiercely: "Humph, these nobles don't know what's good for them. After they leave, I will deal with Li Ergou's family."
Zhang Goudan also nodded with resentment on his face and said, "Grandpa is right. We can't let them get away with it."
At this time, at Li Ergou's house, Bai Qianqian and others were sitting around the table, eating black flour dumplings with pork fat and wild vegetables.
Although the dumplings were simple, they were a rare delicacy in this poor family.
Everyone ate with gusto. Bai Qianqian looked at Li Ergou's family and said gently, "These dumplings taste great."
After hearing this, Li Ergou and his family smiled honestly.
After eating the dumplings, Bai Qianqian showed no intention of leaving.
She turned to look at Xie Er and said, "Xie Er, take the prince's badge and go to Dangyang City to invite the county magistrate to come over."
Xie Er took the order and set off immediately with his badge in hand.
When Li Ergou and his family heard this, they were so moved that tears filled their eyes and they kowtowed to express their gratitude.
Li Ergou said in a trembling voice: "My dear, you are truly the lifesaver of our family."
Bai Qianqian quickly helped them up and said, "No need to do this, we are just doing what we should do."
Li Ergou's family was filled with gratitude. They knew that with the help of these noble people, they might be able to get out of their predicament.
Xie Er rode at full speed towards Dangyang City, covered in dust along the way.
At Li Ergou's house, everyone was quietly waiting for the arrival of the county magistrate.
Bai Qianqian looked at Li Ergou's family, her heart filled with emotion.
She knew very well how difficult life was for the people in such a small village, and that they were often powerless to resist injustice.
She secretly made up her mind to seek justice for this family.
Li Ergou's wife sat aside, her face still a little pale, but there was a hint of hope in her eyes.
She hugged her daughter Daya tightly, as if she had found support.
Daya opened her eyes wide and looked at these distinguished people curiously. She didn't quite understand what was going on, but she could feel that the atmosphere at home had changed.
King Dust sat there with a stern look on his face.
He was very dissatisfied with the situation in Xiahe Village. As a prince, he had the responsibility to speak for the people.
He was already thinking about how to tidy up the village after the county magistrate arrived.
As time passed by, everyone became more and more nervous.
Finally, as everyone was expecting, Xie Er hurried over with the county magistrate.
As soon as the county magistrate saw Prince Chen, he immediately knelt down and saluted, saying with great fear and trepidation, "I did not know Your Majesty was here, and I failed to welcome you from afar. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
King Chen raised his hand slightly, signaling the county magistrate to stand up.
He said seriously: "As the magistrate of Dangyang County, do you know the situation in Xiahe Village?"
The county magistrate wiped the sweat from his forehead and answered carefully: "I know a little bit. The Zhang family, the head of Xiahe Village, is quite powerful in the village. I have heard of some of their evil deeds, but I have never had any solid evidence, so..."
King Chen interrupted him and said coldly: "Now the evidence is right in front of you, do you still want to shirk it?"
The county magistrate knelt down again and said, "Your Majesty, please calm down. I will investigate this matter thoroughly and give you and the people an explanation."
King Chen nodded and said, "Okay, I'll see how you handle this matter. If you can't handle it fairly, I will never let you off easily."
The county magistrate nodded repeatedly and promised to get the matter done.
Afterwards, the county magistrate began to investigate the situation in Xiahe Village.
He gathered the villagers and asked them to tell the truth about what the Zhang family had done.
The people were a little afraid at first, but when they saw the determination of King Chen and the county magistrate, they plucked up their courage and exposed the Zhang family's daily evil deeds one by one.
With irrefutable evidence, the county magistrate ordered the arrest of Zhang Lizheng, Zhang Goudan and all the evil members of the Zhang family.
The people of Xiahe Village cheered, they finally saw hope.
Li Ergou's family was even more excited. They kowtowed to King Chen, Bai Qianqian and others again to express their gratitude.
Bai Qianqian smiled and helped them up, saying, "You can live in peace from now on, and no one will bully you anymore."
King Chen felt a little relieved when he saw the smiling faces of the people.
As for the election of the head of Xiahe Village, Chen Wang and others did not participate.
Left quietly.
In the carriage, King Chen looked at the three young boys and asked, "What do you want to say about Xiahe Village?"
The carriage moved forward slowly, and the atmosphere inside was a little solemn.
Xie Yixuan spoke first, his eyes full of contemplation: "Fifth Uncle, it is really sad that the people in Xiahe Village live such a difficult life. Those bullies take advantage of their power to bully others and make innocent villagers suffer. I think we should pay more attention to places like this and speak up for the people."
Xie Yixiao continued, "Father, my elder brother is right."
Xie Yian also nodded and said, "Father, what happened in Xiahe Village made me see the pain that disease and poverty bring to people. I will work harder to learn medical skills and relieve the pain of the people."
King Chen listened to his three sons' words and a gratified smile appeared on his face.
He nodded slightly and said, "You all said very well. Food is the most important thing for people, but the villagers of Xiahe Village can hardly even get enough food. There are many villages like Xiahe Village. As a royal family, we have the responsibility to let the people live a good life."
His eyes became deep, and he continued, "You must remember that water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. The people are the foundation of the country. Only when the people live and work in peace and contentment can the country prosper. We cannot only think about our own glory and wealth, but ignore the suffering of the people."
