Chapter 123 I'm too bad
Xu Yuanhui had to stand up. There was too much property in this clan named Xu Tianfu clan leader. If confiscated, it would be a huge blow to the Xu family.
At this time, he only regretted that Xu Tianfu was too domineering. He had never done any good things in the past twenty years since he became the patriarch. As long as he was a clan member who had no male members in his family, he would take away his property as the patriarch.
Although it is said that it is public property in the clan, he is actually fed by him. Those clan members have no power and power and cannot speak in the clan. Not to mention that some of them don’t know at all, even if they know, there is no way.
I can only follow the rules and take a small part of it every year to make a living, so how dare I fight against the patriarch?
The Liu family was actually just a small piece of it. I didn’t expect that there had been no trouble in the past twenty years, but this time the new magistrate caught the new magistrate. But this time, this person was a mess again and didn’t care about the face of the local clan. This time it was a big trouble!
Chu Xia looked at the judge Xu Tong who was slapped on the table and said with a smile: "Prime Xu Tong, you don't have to praise me. This is what I should do, not something worth talking about. They are your tribe members, and I can't bear to do your act of destroying relatives for justice. Don't worry, if someone makes things difficult for you, I will send someone to arrest me directly, and I will tell them not to return until they are dispersed."
Xu Yuanhui's words were blocked in his mouth. He glanced at Xu Tianfu with an ugly expression. The people from the Xu family also happened to look at him. Now he can only place all his hopes on him.
"Prime Minister Xu Tong?" At this time, Chu Xia shouted with a smile.
"Sir, it's okay for the officials." Xu Yuanhui quickly withdrew his gaze, bowed his head and looked down without looking at anyone, and sat back on the chair, making it impossible to see his face at this moment.
Chu Xia didn't care about his mood, and he didn't need to deal with these small officials. It would be enough to scare them by using the ninth prince of the Chen family to come out.
In addition to the emperor, the Minister of Personnel is the person most afraid of being an official. If you are unhappy, you can throw you into a poor county where bandits appear.
Liu was completely unconscious. She had the determination to be a widow for the Xu family for the rest of her life, just to keep her daughter's marriage. Unexpectedly, she could actually take her daughter to change her surname. Although her property was gone, the adults were still willing to give her 200 taels of silver to live.
This time, my mother's family has the help of her, and she has spent 200 taels of silver to buy some land. This will not only improve her life at home, but also lead a stable life.
"Master Qingtian! Master Qingtian, you are really Master Qingtian!" She slapped and lay on the ground, and kept kowtowing. This is not an official, it is like a fairy child from heaven who has come down to earth to save people.
The people outside the yamen were stunned by the scattered verdict and had never seen an official who tried the case like this. According to everyone's perception, it was the biggest joy for Liu to cleanse his innocence, and he would still have to take his children back to Xu's house to spend his life thereafter.
Now, not only can I be honest, but I can also take my children back to my parents' home and be a leisurely woman with money in my hands. Not only can I serve my parents-in-law, but I can even get rid of this annoying husband's family and clan, which is so envious that the onlookers are watching.
But the man didn't think so. Whether it was a porter or a scholar, no matter he was a poor man, he had only one thought in his mind, and he felt that he would be finished with such an official position in Hongzhou.
How could a widow take away the Xu family? She was a member of the Xu family and a ghost of the Xu family after she died. Even her daughter was a member of the Xu family. Even if she had no adulterer, her bellyband was a close-fitting thing. If she was taken out to shake it like this, she would be considered innocent.
He threw himself into the river without shame and kowtowed and thanked him with a shameless face. He must have been overjoyed when he saw that he was like that, and just wanted to take two hundred taels of silver back to his parents' home to live a good life.
Pooh!
Two hundred taels... It's really cheap this woman.
Chu Xia didn't like to hear the most. He slapped the agglomeration and scared Liu, who was kowtowing, and said angrily: "What's the point of disturbing the court? A fine of 100 taels of silver is enough to live for a few years for you and your daughter. The other 80 taels will be written and sent someone to give you twenty taels every year."
"Ah?" Liu was stunned. All the people watching took a breath of cold air from their mouths, and the two hundred taels shrank in an instant.
To put it nicely, it’s hard to say when the other eighty taels can be picked up. This official is simply a bad person!
The Xu family was also surprised. They had seen a black-hearted person, but had never seen a so-called official who was as ill-hearted as a sarcastic person. This was too crazy!
Liu was so dull that he had no expression at all, but his forehead was swollen and stupid, and was dragged to the side by Zhuang Rou.
"Get out of the house." At the same time, Chu Xia stood up and walked towards the back hall with his hands behind his back. The yamen runners quickly knocked on the ground with their powerful killing sticks and shouted: "Majestic..."
Of course, the teacher supervised the clerk to do the rest. Zhuang Rou pulled Liu, who had not yet come back to his senses, and walked out of the lobby and headed to the inner yard.
Seeing her in a state of dismay all the way, Zhuang Rou advised: "Don't worry, I will go to find an adult and get your 180 taels of silver. If he doesn't give it to me, I will sell him to you."
She felt that the little prince was too much. She even had to suck the money for a woman to raise her daughter to live. She was such a stingy person who drank cold water. Such a person would definitely be killed by the silver ingot.
When Liu heard this, he shook his head and said, "It's great, thank you for your help. The magistrate has been very nice to me and my daughter. It is my greatest luck to be able to take my daughter back to my hometown."
"Besides, it's not that I don't give it. Saving some money is enough. I'll help others to make up for it, so I can live a life." She didn't dare to mess with the magistrate again. Who knew what else he would do, such as not giving it to twenty taels, and threw her back to Xu's house.
Seeing that she was very scared, Zhuang Rou responded and promised not to look for the little prince. Liu went back with great thanks, and cried with his daughter in his arms, telling her that she could go back to her grandmother's house together and would never be bullied again.
Zhuang Rou quietly withdrew and left the yard and went to find the little prince. He was working in Qingfeng's office at this time.
This was the office and resting place for the magistrate of the Houtang. Half of the magistrate was made into a study by the prefect. The word "Qingfeng" also mentioned, which means "Qingfeng" and "Qingfeng".
However, he was exiled for his greed for ink, and Qingfeng became particularly ridiculous.
"Sir, I'm asking for my meeting." Zhuang Rou reported casually, then walked into Qingfengju as if no one was around. She didn't see anyone working at the table. She saw Chu Xia lazily leaning on the chair drinking cold summer heat relief soup. Two yamen runners holding fans stood next to him, fanning him.
This little life is so comfortable.
Seeing this matter again, Chu Xia put down the bowl and said carelessly: "I touched my bed in the middle of the night and got the official document. If I don't go to do this, why are I coming to me for?"
The two yamen runners who were fanning were a little embarrassed. Although they had guessed their relationship long ago, they flirted in front of outsiders. They were the boss again, and it felt that it was not good to stand here to see.
But the two of them didn't dare to leave just like that, so they had to bite the bullet and continue to fan, and silently remembered in their hearts that they were now deaf and blind, and they could not hear or see anything.
At this moment, they heard the magistrate say, "Give her the fan, you can go out first."
As if they were amnesty, the two hurriedly stuffed the fan to Zhuang Rou, and quickly left Qingfengju, without even staying in the yard, and retreated directly outside the yard.
Originally, Zhuang Rou wanted to come and ask for guilt. How could you, a man, treat the poor orphan and widowed mother like this? But looking at the little prince's appearance, she shook the fan in her hand and sat next to her, saying with a smile: "I don't have money on hand, so I can't do anything when I go out."
"Is that so? I thought you sold out all my things and were about to go out to summon the poor to spend money." Chu Xia glanced at her and said sarcastically.
Zhuang Rou fanned hard, but did not answer what he said, but said strangely: "Sir, your house is very stuffy. The name of Qingfeng means that you want to blow the gust of wind. I didn't expect that your skin and tender flesh can actually endure this bitterness."
"I know it's hot here, so you won't fan me yet, just sit there and slap it!" Chu Xia cursed angrily, without any strength at all.
Zhuang Rou stood up swayingly, sat on the armrest of the chair, leaned towards him slantedly, slapped Feng'er and smiled, "Sir, I have something to ask you for advice."
A cool breeze was slapped from her to Chu Xia's face, but he didn't smell any of it, but a woman didn't even smell any of the powder.
It doesn’t smell good, and it’s like those women seducing people. Can anyone show this posture?
He snorted and said, "Everyone wants to sell my king's things, and he is brave enough to the sky. What else do you want to ask me about your ideas?"
Zhuang Rou slapped hard and said with a smile: "Sir, Liu took his daughter back, and it's too little money. I heard that her parents' family is not having a good life now, but it's easy to say that they have experience in doing business. As long as they have some capital, they don't say that they are rich and noble, but life should be fine."
"It's better to bring her all the remaining money back. Two hundred taels are not enough for adults to make pairs of socks, so I'll treat it as a reward for them."
Chu Xia tilted her head and looked at her with a smile, "What do you mean is that I am too unkind and even took the widow's money? If you think it's twenty taels, you can pay it out for yourself and give it as much as you like."
This stingy man!
Zhuang Rou's hand stopped suddenly, and her face immediately changed color, "Corrupt official and treacherous minister! You must marry a bad wife in the future. You will use your identity to go out and cheat, which will arouse public anger and eventually become like this!"
She took the fan viciously and gestured around her neck, stood up and took away two fans, leaving half of them for Chu Xia, which made him so hot!
As soon as he reached the door, Chu Xia's lazy voice came from behind him, "Two hundred taels of silver were taken away by a widow, and he was robbed and killed halfway through. You are so kind-hearted that you don't have to do it yourself. Tell me, how much money did the Xu family give you to do this murder?"
Zhuang Rou stopped at the door and suddenly realized that this was the case sentenced in court, and everyone heard it. She looked back at Chu Xia, and he could actually think of this...
Chu Xia smiled slightly, hooked her finger, "Come here, fan the king. Maybe I'm happy for a moment, so I will send someone to send them back to my parents' home, and use her money to buy some land for her local area. There is also the ones pressing against others, so I dare not bully her as a widow who was driven out of the clan."
"..." Zhuang Rou stared at him for a long time, and finally squeezed out a sentence, "Sir, you are really a good person who speaks right and wrong. In fact, you are very kind."
Chu Xia's proud face suddenly became very ugly. She was so angry that she pointed at her and scolded: "Get out! I am a bad person, the kind that is so bad!"
Seeing that he was anxious again, Zhuang Rou threw the fan into the room and ran away.
Chapter completed!
