Huo Huangying returned to the lobby, sat down after the case, and asked Mei Zihan, Qi Zhuzhu and Jianshu to take the case files they had sorted out for her to read.

After browsing more than a dozen cases, Huo Huangying discovered that there are many economic disputes and property disputes, and other civil disputes and murder cases are mostly caused by financial disputes, and the remaining half are housework, neighborhood disputes and emotional entanglements between men and women. People die for money and birds die for food, which is the result of the economic prosperity of Xiazhao.

After reading it, Miss Fire nodded secretly.

The case files were sorted to her wishes.

The chief clerk Qi has sorted out the most clearly. She has been working in the chief clerk for more than ten years, is familiar with public business and experienced, and would not have been relied on by the former county magistrate. Although Jianshu has never been in the yamen, after Huo Huangying explained it clearly, she learned from other things and was proficient in getting started, and was able to grasp the key points and doubts of every case.

What surprised Huo Huangying the most was Mei Zihan: he had been studying hard for the imperial examination and had never been involved in official duties. However, this trial not only marked the doubts and key points of each case in the case file, but also put forward his own opinions and opinions, including where to start the investigation and trial details, so that Huo Huangying could see his considerateness to him, rather than just the case itself. Generally speaking, his daughter loved a young man with talent and good looks, and Huo girl was no exception. If Mei Zihan had no ink, no matter how considerate she was, she might not be able to impress her; now she was particularly moved and happy.

She glanced at Mei Zihan.

Mei Zihan was looking up at her.

The eyes collided, and the two smiled knowingly.

Huo Huangying thought he would say something, but he lowered his head with a smile, as if he knew that she could see her feelings from the lines, so he felt a little uncomfortable. The expression that concealed affection was more moving than confessing and swearing. Huo Huangying never felt that life was so fulfilling and life was full of hope.

Suddenly, Chief Rec. Qi asked: "Does sir have any constitution? Or should you only accept the complaint today and wait for the clarification to be made and then the trial will be heard tomorrow?"

Huo Huangying said: "No, try it immediately!"

In the grand occasion, if one case is not proposed to try, wouldn’t it live up to the people’s trust and expectations for her? If one or two cases can be tried with thunder, three cases will be better, and it will be recognized by the people and consolidate the people’s expectations for her. She will never let this great opportunity go!

Strike the iron while it is hot, nothing more than that.

Chief Qi hurriedly said, "Sir, please give me instructions."

Mei Zihan also looked at her with bright eyes.

Huo Huangying said: "Jianshu and Meixian PM go to the nearby Zhengfang Office, continue to accept the complaints, and the chief clerk Qi assisted the official in the trial of the case."

Everyone agreed in unison.

Huo Huangying chose the case.

Which one should I review first?

If you choose a case that is too complicated, it will be difficult to find the result in a while; even if the result is found, it may not be able to surpass Li Hanyao's limelight yesterday - Li Hanyao took the lead yesterday and killed dozens of officials. But if the case that is too simple and trivial disputes are too trivial, even if it is clear, it cannot reflect her means and cannot arouse the interests of the people.

After careful consideration, she chose a case where her parents-in-law sued her daughter-in-law for her affair. First, she knew it was not easy for a woman to be a daughter-in-law. If her daughter-in-law was wronged, she would definitely make the decision for her and restore her innocence. Second, the woman's reputation is the most eye-catching. Her newly appointed county magistrate is also born in a wealthy family, and her reputation is being criticized. It just happened to use this case to express her position and viewpoints and reverse everyone's impression.

After the selection, she ordered her to go to the church, and quietly called Feng Hui to come, and asked him to send two clever brothers to inquire about the situation of the Zhou family, the reputation of her parents-in-law and daughter-in-law among neighbors, and then quickly went back and forth.

Feng Hui hurriedly explained the arrangements.

Sure enough, the people were in high spirits.

When they were promoted to the hall, they tried their best to squeeze in.

When Li Hanyao and others arrived, the hall was underway. Many people were watching the fun were gathered in the lobby. Under the constraints of Feng Hui and his brothers, they occasionally whispered, but no one was making noise. They all listened to the female county magistrate inside. Suddenly, they saw a group of officials coming around surrounded by a few young men and women in good clothes. They felt awe. Without waiting to drive them away, they dodged aside and let them in.

Li Hanyao and others did not go in and stood at the door of the lobby to take the trial.

I saw an old man and an old woman kneeling in the middle of the lobby, and there was a young wife next to her. Huo Huangying was asking them.

Duan Cunrui and others saw Huo Huangying wearing official uniforms, and they looked a bit like an official, but their expressions were indifferent to the solemnity and seriousness of an official, and they were as delicate as chatting with people, so they couldn't help but frown - this was simply a joke!

Li Hanyao's feelings were completely different. She listened to Huo Huangying's delicate and gentle voice, and there were traps hidden in the seemingly casual questions. She couldn't help but have bright eyes, full of interest, and refreshed her eyes.

Duan Cunrui and others heard a few words and heard the smell. They stopped their contempt and paid attention to every word Huo Huangying said.

Huo Huangying asked: "Uncle Zhou, Grandma Zhou, you sued Qin and Li Chun with an affair and paid Li Chun all the money. What evidence is there?"

Mrs. Zhou said: "Sir, she rented the shop to Li Chun for several years, but she didn't see any rent. The shop was close to the wharf, and the city entrance was good, and the rent was expensive, and it was at least 100 taels a year. She often met Li Chun in the shop. Isn't this stealing people? I pity my grandson and granddaughter, and told her to keep the yellow skin thin, and she didn't wear a few decent clothes all year round..." As she said that, she wiped away her tears.

Huo Huangying interrupted her and asked, "Why don't you take care of the shop yourself?"

Mrs. Zhou was stunned and didn't know how to go back.

Huo Huangying said "Hmm?" and did not show her face. However, the tone of asking made Old Man Zhou and Grandma Zhou feel extremely stressed.

Zhou Pozi stuttered: "That's her dowry, but sir-" She quickly added without waiting for Huo Huangying to speak-"Her dowry was originally a small shop, a little bit big. It was my dead son who helped her cook and made money, and then he changed to this big one. This shop is half as big as my son..."

Old Man Zhou hurriedly said, "That's it."

Huo Huangying chuckled and said, "Whether your son helps her or your grandson helps her, it is her dowry shop. It is her own business. It has nothing to do with you. I will ask you: You said your daughter-in-law and Li Chun had a private meeting in the shop, but someone had a witness? Catch the thief and catch the stolen goods and the gangsters. Since you saw it, why didn't you hold her on the spot, but came to complain with nothing?"

Old Man Zhou shouted: "She doesn't admit it!"

Mrs. Zhou also shouted: "She said she was talking to Li Chun about a deal and collecting rent. I asked her where was the money? She couldn't take it out."

Huo Huangying said slowly: "Her shop was rented to Li Chun. It is natural for her to meet Li Chun. As long as she does not act miserably, she will not be able to slander her reputation, let alone sue her in court. Although this move embarrasses Qin, it also embarrasses your dead sons. Grandsons and granddaughters will also be implicated, making them unable to raise their heads in front of others, and even affecting their future marriage. Besides, why do you say that Qin cannot take out the money? That is her dowry shop. How much money she has collected and wherever she has collected is all her private affairs, and there is no need to explain it to others. Even if you are her in-laws, there is no reason to ask for it."

Old Man Zhou and Mrs. Zhou were stunned.

Zhou Po Zi was so angry that she said angrily: "I am a mother-in-law's birthday. Shouldn't she be filial and not take the money?"

Huo Huangying immediately asked the daughter-in-law: "Qin, your mother-in-law's birthday, do you have the filial piety of your daughter-in-law?"

Qin kept his head down and waited for the county magistrate to question her. However, the county magistrate kept asking her parents-in-law and dismissed her in-laws one by one. She heard it as if she was a dream and could not believe that the adults defended her so much. When she heard the adults inquiry, she woke up as if she was in a dream, she hurriedly looked up and said in panic: "Yes! Yes! The little woman made clothes, shoes and socks for her in-laws every year, from inside to outside, from head to toe, and there were several sets a year, all of which were good ingredients. There were also food, ginseng, and bird's nest..."

Before Huo Huangying could finish her words, she turned her eyes to Old Man Zhou and Grandma Zhou and asked, "Is that true?" Her voice stopped fluctuating.

Mrs. Zhou said, "Yes. But..."
