Wear to the Ming Dynasty to farm

In the middle of the night, I only heard the bright lights in the courtyard of a large family.A large group of young people surrounded the wine table, chattering and drinking wine.

A young man with a pockmarked face drank a large bowl of wine and said with a smile: "I still think that little bastard is so powerful, you see, he is still a big brother, and he can talk in front of the county magistrate. Let me let you go today." That kid is in jail."

Xue Hu was complacent at the dinner table, "This kid is overconfident and dared to provoke my grandpa Tai Sui. Don't think that he has become a tyrant in the county because he sold some things in this county. I'll teach you how to be obedient." Then he picked up the wine glass and raised it to everyone, "Come, drink, drink!"

The other young man at the dinner table had mischievous eyebrows, but he was thinking about other dirty things at the dinner table.He smiled at Xue Hu and said, "Brother, since Xiao Zhuzi has already entered the prison, do you want to settle the good things with that girl tonight?"

"Oh, no." The pockmarked young man stopped him, "It won't be too late to salute the girl after that boy is completely dealt with."

Xue Hu nodded, "That's right, but I think that kid is also quite handsome, and it makes my heart itch. It's the first time I've thought that way about a man."

"Why don't you ask the magistrate to release him and sell him to you as a servant, and then take Miss Xiang'er with him..."

As soon as the young man finished speaking, strange laughter erupted from the entire dinner table, and the sound of shouting suddenly rose.

What this group of people did was condemned by everyone in the county. Although the county magistrate also favored them, since Qiao Jiwei had not been completely dealt with, Xue Hu had a thorn in his heart.Because of that thorn, thinking of Miss Xiang'er is naturally boring, but for Qiao Jiwei, she suddenly has the desire to conquer another man.

Zhao Ji was also at the dinner table at this time, and seeing the domineering faces of the group of bullies on the dinner table, he secretly lowered his head, and was particularly conspicuous among the dozen or so people.He found an excuse and said goodbye to everyone.

At this moment, a young man was also sitting in the Wu Family Tavern, but he was drinking dull wine.This person is Miss Xiang'er's love brother, "Hey, the bad guy lives a happy life, is there any law? Because of our affairs, Ji Wei also went to prison. It's all our fault that he got involved."

Shopkeeper Wu sat next to him, and patted the young man on the shoulder, "Good and evil will be rewarded in the end, and the wicked are proud, that's a temporary thing." As he spoke, he recalled what Qiao Jiwei had warned them before he was arrested, but he couldn't help it. Know why Qiao Jiwei wants them to continue to curry favor with the magistrate.

Speaking of Qiao Jiwei, he was lying on a pile of grass in a cell in the prison.What he ate at night was leftovers and steamed buns that had already turned yellow. Seeing this food, Qiao Jiwei found it hard to swallow.But in any case, the rice still has to be eaten.He almost ate the whole bowl of food holding his nose.

Qiao Jiwei sat in the cell, secretly planning based on what happened today.Previously, he had entrusted shopkeeper Guo to wait for others to manage it up and down, but now he still has to wait for a scholar.

After about a quarter of an hour, the lights in the distance of the cell gradually faded.The jailer led a weak scholar into the door of Qiao Jiwei's cell.

Seeing the scholar, Qiao Jiwei got up from the grass, his spine still straight in his white prison uniform.The scholar was a little surprised when he saw it.The other prisoners were all disheveled and disheveled, but Qiao Jiwei was the only one who could maintain a calm appearance in this prison.

Qiao Jiwei stepped forward slowly, and glanced at the jailer in front of the scholar. The scholar agreed, took out dozens of coins from his pocket, and handed them to the jailer.He begged the jailer: "My lord, I have something important to say to this little brother, can it be convenient?"

The jailer was also a reasonable person, and he really wanted to be greedy for some small possessions.So he said in a malicious voice: "Okay, if you have something to say, hurry up, don't wait too long." After speaking, he turned around and walked out of the prison.

Seeing the jailer walking away, Qiao Jiwei asked in a low voice, "Is everything settled?"

The scholar said: "Yes, someone went to the state capital at noon, and now I am afraid that the people in the state capital have heard about what happened here."

Qiao Jiwei held the railing in his hand, with sincere gratitude on his face, "It's really hard for you."

"Hey," the scholar waved his hands again and again, "removing harm for the people is also what we scholars hope to do."

As the scholar said, the jailer approached with a knife.Facing the scholar with a vicious voice, he said, "Hey, why haven't you finished talking after talking for so long?"

The scholar laughed again and again, "My lord, it's over, we're done."

"You," the jailer pointed at Qiao Jiwei, "go back."

Qiao Jiwei also looked obedient and well-behaved. The moment he turned around, he suddenly smiled at the scholar and walked quickly back to the haystack.

Although Qiao Jiwei is usually a cold-faced person, a smile makes the entire handsome face come alive, and I don't know whether it is the smile that makes Qiao Jiwei's face more beautiful, or whether Qiao Jiwei's delicate face makes the smile more brilliant. With this smile, my mood instantly improved.Follow the jailer to the prison cell.

By now, the news of Xue Hu's magistrate's bullying must have spread throughout the prefecture city.Yesterday, Qiao Jiwei organized a linkage between the scholars in the county and the scholars around him. When the scholars in Lin County heard about such a bad thing, they were filled with righteous indignation.Up to now, public opinion has spread to the prefectural capital city. With the power of poetry and novels, I believe it will be spread widely. Everyone in the prefectural capital will definitely hate the county magistrate.

At this moment, under countless dim lights, the story of the county magistrate ignoring the facts and Xue Hu forcibly robbing the civilian daughters may have been spread by thousands of households.Tonight is destined to be an uneasy night for both Qiao Jiwei and the entire state capital.

Sure enough, the governor of the state capital heard about it in the street talk the next morning.After hearing this, he was furious, and immediately wrote a letter to the county magistrate, ordering the messenger to move forward quickly, and handed the letter to the county magistrate quickly.

At noon, the messenger arrived at the county seat.The county magistrate Ben was playing in the backyard with his pretty aunt, when he heard that the governor had a letter coming, he hurriedly put on his official uniform and went to the yamen to meet the messenger.

The courier delivered the letter to him, but saw that the county magistrate was still disheveled in his official uniform.The county magistrate was so anxious that he opened the letter in front of everyone.I saw that my heart was full of accusations, so that he could handle the case fairly.The county magistrate shook his hand after reading the letter, and the letter slipped to the ground.

The master stepped forward, picked up the letter, and read it through. After reading it, he looked up, only to see the county official's face ashen.The county magistrate was furious, and said tremblingly, "Hurry up and arrest Xue Hu and his gang."

After hearing the county magistrate's order, the arresters rushed to Xue Hu's house with knives in their hands.Not much to say, the entire Xue family was surrounded by water inside and out.

A group of Xue Hu's cronies walked out the door, and when they saw this large group of arresters head on, they were all shocked.They couldn't believe that the police officers would arrest them one day. In the past, they would walk sideways when they saw the police officers.

This Xue Hu didn't know the heights of heaven and earth, so he stepped forward and pushed the policeman in his twenties, knocking him a few steps away, "Who are you, don't you know that the county magistrate is my cousin?"

The head catcher said expressionlessly, "Catch them all."

Before everyone had time to react, a policeman stepped forward and grabbed their hands.Pull these dozen or so domineering ruffians into the yamen.

Until the time of his promotion, Xue Hu thought that the county magistrate would protect him.A dozen other people knelt under the hall, Xue Hu still stood, with a playful smile, "My lord, it's just a matter of meaning, haha."

"Kneel down!" the county magistrate snapped.

Xue Hu's face was filled with astonishment, his legs softened in fright from the county magistrate's voice, and he knelt down on the ground.

"You rob people's daughters and run rampant in the village, what should you do?"

Xue Hu opened his mouth, as if he couldn't understand what the county magistrate was saying. "My lord, isn't that all right?"

Indeed, they had already discussed with the county magistrate before arresting Qiao Jiwei.But now the collusion between the bully Xue Hu and the county magistrate has been known to the governor. The county magistrate can no longer protect them. The letter said that the governor will arrive in a few hours. I have to put myself in it.

He ordered to the yamen servants lined up in two rows: "Drag out, beat Xue Hu [-] times, and the others [-] times."

As soon as the county magistrate's order came out, everyone kneeling in the hall wailed. "My lord, please forgive me. This matter has nothing to do with me."

The dozen or so bullies were dragged down, only to hear screams outside.These people are used to bullying the people, I'm afraid they have never been punished.

It just so happened that Qiao Jiwei was released at this time, walked outside the crowd, glanced coldly at the dozen or so people who had been beaten up, and felt a burst of pleasure in his heart.

Every time the board was hit, the dozen or so people wailed once.Finally, there were enough boards, Xue Hu glanced into the crowd, and happened to see Qiao Jiwei.He originally thought that if Qiao Jiwei was locked in prison, he would not be able to make any big waves again, and he seemed to be quite weak.But he didn't expect that Qiao Jiwei was still unscathed after being hit by the board.

After one or two hours, Lord Inspector came to the county, and the county magistrate went to the outskirts to greet him personally, nodding and bowing the whole way, welcoming the Inspector to the county government office.

The governor came to the county government office and asked to see Qiao Jiwei by name.The county magistrate had no choice but to obey and ordered the yamen servant to bring Qiao Jiwei up.

Sitting in the hall, the governor saw a young man in black walking outside, with a red jade pendant on his waist. He was handsome and handsome, but his temperament seemed a little mature, not what he should have been at his age.A line of poetry suddenly appeared in the mind of the governor: "Moshang is like jade, and the son is unparalleled in the world."

Qiao Jiwei shook the dust off his clothes, "Caomin has seen Lord Inspector."

"Please get up quickly. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know about this crime." The governor greeted Qiao Jiwei with a smile, but turned to look at the county magistrate's face with a cold and blunt expression, "What's the matter with you, someone ignored you You don’t care about laws and regulations, is your heart deceived by something?”

The county magistrate thought that Qiao Jiwei was no match for the officials, but he didn't expect that Qiao Jiwei would easily pass him by and go to the governor.It seems that he underestimated him at the beginning, when he heard the governor's questioning, he quickly knelt down, "It's the lower officials who have no eyes."

Qiao Jiwei was also busy speaking for the county magistrate, "My lord, thanks to the county magistrate's impartial law enforcement, they were able to redress their grievances." At this time, they can't sue. He knows that even a governor has no right to remove the county magistrate. The county magistrate has been in charge for a while, so he should say something good for him.But Qiao Jiwei also remembered the previous actions of the county magistrate, and he was not a good official after all.

After listening to Qiao Jiwei's words, the governor was still very strict with the county magistrate. "Okay, you can appease that girl's family within one day, and other villains must be severely punished."

The magistrate was obedient, "Yes."

In the end, Xue Hu's family was fined ten taels of silver, of which five taels were given to Xiang'er's family.The policemen personally took Miss Xiang'er back to their home.
