Chapter 109 Sleeping in
Xu Zhao looked at Xu Bin's appearance, sat up and smiled.
"Boy, this is just the beginning. When the time comes, you will see some of the dangers in the world, and you will resign voluntarily."
He knew that the character of his brat was definitely incompatible with officialdom, and he thought he would resign voluntarily before long.
Xu Bin walked to the county government lobby and looked at the noisy people below.
"Everyone be quiet. Now, I say, listen. No one is standing on either side."
Xu Bin said this, and the people around him followed suit. They wanted to see how Xu Bin tried the case.
The scholars looked at Xu Bin with wonder. They were confident that Xu Bin would not really punish them. After all, this was what the previous county magistrate did.
"The case is like this. Scholars led by Ji Zhang bullied He Dali, robbed He Dali's books, and tore them into pieces on the spot. Is that so?"
After Xu Bin finished speaking, the scholar shouted: "That's right, that's it. That rough guy doesn't deserve to study."
"Quiet, in that case, this is how you will deal with your fight. According to the laws of Daxia, those who rob others of their property will be punished as robbery, and those who lead others to beat others will be punished as disturbing the peace."
"Ji Zhang is the chief culprit. He not only robbed and destroyed property, but also led everyone to fight. According to the law, he fought eighty and compensated He Dali for his losses. The remaining scholars fought twenty. Is this acceptable?"
He is still very light.
"If you don't accept it, you, the county magistrate, can you judge? If you can't judge, then abdicate and make way for someone better. He is a rough man. Is it wrong for us to snatch his books? He is the guilty one. If he doesn't resist, he won't.
That’s it.”
Ji Zhang was dissatisfied. He didn't expect Xu Bin to really dare to judge.
Xu Bin: "You are provoking the imperial officials, which is an additional crime."
"Go to hell with your crime. You are about the same age as us, how did you become the county magistrate? How can you convince the public if you have no virtue or talent?"
Ji Zhang cursed angrily at Xu Bin, very arrogantly.
"Since you are not convinced, I will report this case to the Ministry of Criminal Justice and let the people from the Criminal Department review it. How about this?"
He is in a weak position now, and he doesn't know what to do if he encounters this kind of thing. If he tries to force it, he won't be able to get it executed.
He is now a short-term county magistrate.
"It should have been like this a long time ago?" The people in the Ministry of Justice, those people are not comparable to your county magistrate. When the time comes, you only need a bribe or two, and it will be done.
Then tell them in front of them how you, the county magistrate, bullied them scholars. Presumably, you, the county magistrate, have come to an end.
"If that's the case, then I'll report it and you guys will go to Changling Prison to settle down." The prisoner is going to the prison, so this sentence is correct.
"You damn county magistrate, what? You dare to say it again and try it again. Believe it or not, I will kill you right now. Let's see if anyone can take care of you."
Ji Zhang is angry, this ghost magistrate, I don’t think you can be the magistrate for long.
Xu Bin, he wants to cry. Those people don't understand. There is no one in the county government, so he can only be bullied.
Xu Bin thought that this was an extra level of crime. He couldn't afford to send them to jail now, but since they dared to scold him, it was an extra level of crime.
"You are sure not to stay in Changling Prison. The consequences will be aggravated. You have to think about it. I can't do anything to you now. I can only report the truth."
He felt aggrieved. It was really hard to be the county magistrate.
"Let's go. Nothing happened anyway. Don't pay attention to this county magistrate. He just has a false reputation. He might be the county magistrate who was abandoned by the court. Look at him, he might be replaced in a few days."
Ji Zhang said, and the other scholars also laughed and left the county government office directly.
Xu Bin was so angry that he wanted to scold his mother, but he couldn't do anything now.
Traitor, I won't call you traitor anymore. You took everyone away yesterday, and I can't get into a mess now.
Now it's over, it's not even easy to handle cases, and everything is restricted.
The people watched it with great interest, but they didn't expect that there was really no one in the county magistrate.
This is still the first time.
"You can all leave. He will be punished for his evil deeds, and we will not let him go unpunished. You can register your affairs as a yamen servant. If you want to be a yamen servant, there is paper and pen here. Please write down your names and some
Write down all the information.”
Xu Bin paused after saying this. Most of them are illiterate: "Well, you come over and tell me, and I will remember it."
At this time, Chen Shi walked in. Xu Bin saw Chen Shi coming and said, "Anping, come here and do me a favor."
"County Lord, what's going on?" Chen Shi said when he saw Xu Bin looking a little like he was about to collapse.
Xu Bin was so high-spirited before, pointing out the country and promoting writing, but now he is a little tired when he becomes the county magistrate.
"Anping, can you help me register the list of these people? I have to go to the capital at night." Otherwise, there is no other way. Who knows that the traitor actually took away all the people, causing him to be in the county government office?
It's empty inside.
Nowadays, there are many cases happening in the county government office, and he is too busy to deal with them alone, so he has no choice but to turn to the traitor for help.
Who asked that treacherous minister to ask His Majesty to issue an edict to make him the county magistrate? Who should we look for if we don't look for that treacherous minister now?
And now many people think that he is the treacherous minister. His people are being bullied, so how can the treacherous minister ignore it?
"Going to the capital, what are you going to do?" Chen Shi was a little surprised, capital? Why is he going to the capital now? Does he know anyone in the capital?
"I'm going to find that traitor, otherwise we won't be able to deal with it at all now." Xu Bin said frankly, he was just sitting around.
"Looking for the Prime Minister, can you see him?" Chen Shi was a little worried, that traitor? Can Xu Bin really see him?
What's more, the capital is full of high-ranking officials. If you accidentally offend someone, it won't be easy to handle.
"Since he asked me to be the county magistrate, he will definitely not miss me." Xu Bin said, that traitor, since he can get His Majesty to decree that he be the county magistrate, he will definitely not miss him.
What's more, if this continues, Changling will turn into a mess.
"You go and come back quickly, otherwise I won't be able to do anything. If something happens now, I can only let them solve it on their own."
The common people also heard Xu Bin's words, and some said: "Your Majesty, if we don't have any murder cases during this period, we will solve it ourselves first and won't cause you any trouble."
"Yes, the county magistrate must come back. You are a good official."
The common people said one after another that they could not keep Xu Bin so busy. If a good official was tired, it would be difficult in the future.
"Thank you for your understanding. I'll leave as soon as possible."
After saying that, he ran out of the county government office.
By the way, there is also an edict, which is proof of his identity.
Now I don't know if I can arrive tomorrow morning if I travel at night, so I have to hurry up.
…………
The sun rose from the east and shone on the prime minister's house. Xie Ji stayed in bed and didn't want to get up, so he lay in bed.
"Master of the house, master of the house." Liu Shui called softly in Xie Ji's ear, but Xie Ji slept like a dead pig.
If I don't go to court today, why did you ask me to get up early? I want to commit murder. What's more, he has been tired recently and can't rest for a while.
Xie Ji threw a pillow into the running water and continued to fall asleep.
Liu Shui:……
Why is the owner of the house so lazy? The sun is almost out, why is he still not awake?
It's sunrise now, and the family owner usually wakes up at dawn.
If Xie Ji had known it was late, he might have said that it was only sunrise, which was probably equivalent to 5 to 7 in modern times. It was so early, and he usually slept until 12 noon, as long as he had nothing to do.
Now, I don’t even go to school so early.
What's more, I didn't go to court today, so why did I get up so early? If I had known, I wouldn't have asked Liu Shui to come back. I could have slept comfortably in those few days without Liu Shui.
"Master, master, it's time to get up." Liu Shui whispered, but in Xie Ji's eyes, it was just noise.
Xie Ji squinted one eye and watched the running water scream beside his ear.
He immediately wrapped the quilt tighter and said, "Come back in two hours."
After saying that, he fell asleep again. It's only 5 o'clock now. Did you make a mistake? Let him sleep for another 4 hours.
Liu Shui:……
The owner of the house is just lazy, this is definitely fine.
It seems that the owner of the house goes to bed late at night and wakes up late in the morning.
Um, but two hours, isn't that too much?
