Chapter 110 Guobei County Magistrate
After drinking in the middle of the night, Xiaoqian left first, and with Xiaoqian's departure, the goat monster also left drunk. Qin Hui looked at the two leaving and sat cross-legged until dawn.
"It's on the road!" Qin Hui kicked the stupid donkey beside her, and then pulled it out reluctantly. Qin Hui sat on the donkey staggeringly and headed towards her goal.
"Dang, dang, dang, dang. Mr. Qin, the new official has taken office! Dang, dang, dang. Mr. Qin has taken office!" With the sound of gongs and drums on the street, Qin Hui, led by the master beside him, headed towards the county government.
"Master, the young man surnamed Zhao, is the master in the mansion. The meal is ready today. You can rest early after you finish eating." Master Zhao has a pair of rat eyes, a piece of plaster on his face, and a goatee on his chin.
Seeing the master's appearance, Qin Hui smiled with satisfaction and then said, "I'm just here for the first time, how can I sleep? Go, the yamen runners come over, I'm going to start a court to determine the case." After Qin Hui said that, she strode to the county magistrate's seat and sat down, and slapped the gavel hard.
"Why are you still standing there? Go and get guys to the hall!" The master looked at the yamen runners who knew each other and shouted loudly.
"Master has been promoted to the hall!" A yamen runner with a water and fire stick ran quickly out of the gate after hearing Master Zhao's words and shouted.
"Bang, take the criminal!" Qin Hui looked at the paper in the hand of Master Zhao on the side and slapped the arbor.
As Qin Hui's actions, the yamen runners on both sides poked the water and fire sticks and shouted in unison; "Wei...wu."
"Master, it's unfair! It's unfair!" As Qin Hui said, the two of them quickly ran into the hall, then knelt on the ground and shouted for injustice.
"Both are calling for justice! It's a strange thing!" Qin Hui looked at the two kneeling people below, waved to the master beside her, and said, "Master Zhao, take the paper for me to see."
When Master Zhao heard this, he handed the paper to Qin Hui and whispered in his ear, "Master, these two are both unruly people!"
Qin Hui looked at the paper in her hand and whispered, "Oh! What does Master Zhao say?"
The master secretly pointed to the two people kneeling in the hall and whispered, "You guys don't know anything! According to our industry rules, those who complained must pay five taels of silver, and those who defendant must pay eight taels of rice. But these two people didn't pay a penny, they are definitely real troublemakers!"
After hearing this, Qin Hui nodded with consent and said, "No rules can be achieved without a square meter. Come on, I will give me thirty boards each. I will try again later, lord."
"Ah! Master, it's wronged! It's wronged! Don't beat it, don't beat it!" As the shouts of injustice, two yamen runners stepped forward to knock them down, and then beat them with a stick.
"Ouch! Ouch!" Qin Hui looked at the two people wailing underground, nodded with satisfaction, and then said to the master beside him; "Master Zhao, this man is really tricky. If he doesn't fight, he won't help!"
When Master Zhao heard this, he poured a cup of hot water for Qin Hui and said repeatedly, "Master, wise, wise!"
After hearing this, Qin Hui said to the two people in the hall with a smile, "The master of paper has already looked at it. Li Da said that you occupied twenty acres of fertile land in his home. What do you have to say about this?"
When the man heard this, he kowtowed and said, "You are wronged! I, Niu Er, have always been a person in detail. These twenty acres of fertile land belong to my Niu family. Li Da relied on his strength to snatch it away! He is the evil man who complains first, and the master will take it into consideration clearly!"
"Master, Master, Niu Er is telling a lie!" Li Da, who was standing beside him, hurriedly said after Niu Er finished speaking. "Master, these twenty acres of fertile land belong to my Li family. It was only because my grandfather lost to his Niu family by betting that he mortgaged the 20 acres of fertile land to the Niu family for thirty years. Now the date of thirty years has come, and it is natural for my Li family to take back the land!"
"It's so chaotic!" Qin Hui couldn't help but feel a big headache when she heard this. You said to me and I said to you, but there was no conclusion at all. Qin Hui thought for a while and asked, "Do you two have other evidence to prove that these twenty acres of fertile land belong to your own family?"
Niu Er and Li Da in the hall looked at each other, then shook their heads and said, "There is no other evidence."
When Qin Hui heard this, she said with confidence, "Well! This is easy."
Master Zhao, who was scratching his head on the side, said with admiration after listening to Qin Hui's words, "My master is worthy of being a master! I have no answers after thinking about it. When it comes to you, I think it out every minute and every second! Gao, so high!"
After seeing Qin Hui had an idea, the two people in the hall kowtowed without caring about the pain on their butts, and quickly kowtowed, "Master Qingtian, please be fair!"
Listening to the praise of the two, Qin Hui looked up at the plaque with the words "Open and grand", and waved her hands, "Well, okay, okay. You both should retreat. There is no need to fight for these twenty acres of fertile land, I will accept it."
"Puff" The master who was drinking tea on the side heard Qin Hui's words, sprayed out a mouthful of tea. Master Zhao wiped the tea on his body with his sleeve and asked in a low voice to Qin Hui, "Master, it's too dark for us to do this!"
When Qin Hui heard this, she said furiously, "Nonsense! Master, I'm just like a god to judge the case. How could I be so sad to keep this radius of peace in a hundred miles?" After saying this, Qin Hui waved to the two people in the hall and said, "Li Da said that the fields are his, and Niu Er also said that the fields are his. In order not to cause another dispute between you two families and destroy the harmony between the neighbors, I decided to confiscate these two acres of fertile land. You must understand the painstaking efforts of our officials!"
"Ah!" Li Da said quickly as soon as he heard this, "Master, can I not sue me? I am willing to settle the matter with Niu Er, and I will not sue me."
When Niu Eryi heard that his land was about to be confiscated, he quickly begged and said, "Yes, yes, yes. Master, we won't sue you, we will solve it ourselves, and we won't sue you."
"Nonsense! Master, I am just a little bit of a word, and I enforce the law like a mountain. How can I change what I say?" Qin Hui said, slapped the agglomeration and ordered the yamen runners on both sides; "Boom them out for me."
"Wei...wu!" With the shouting, several yamen runners stepped forward and beat the two of them out of the way.
"Well! I am a soft-hearted person and I don't think of any disagreement among neighbors!" Qin Hui said, pouring out the tea from the teacup and pouring the wine he brought with me.
Master Zhao smiled awkwardly and said to himself, "I, Lao Zhao, are so stupid, but I have never killed them all! This new county magistrate is so shameless, it is simply unforgivable!"
After pouring the wine, Qin Hui looked at the silly yamen runners below and said unhappily, "Why are you still standing there? Waiting for dinner? Come and bring the next wave of people who are calling for justice! No one is calling for justice, we all have to drink the northwest wind!"
"Oh!" After hearing Qin Hui's words, the yamen runners quickly ran out of the lobby with water and fire sticks. The yamen runners who ran out of the gate shouted to the crowd around them; "The new master has started a trial of the case. If there is any grievance, report it quickly!"
The people who heard this immediately hid the paper in their hands behind them, and shook their heads while retreating.
Qin Hui looked at the dispersed crowd, smiled with relief, turned around and said to the master beside her, "Look, the neighborhood is so harmonious. The people of my Guobei County really don't close their doors at night and don't pick up their own remains on the road!"
When Master Zhao heard this, he wiped the sweat from his forehead, nodded and shook his head.
Chapter completed!
