Daming: Wanted to be a small landlord, but was forced to ascend the throne

Chapter 35 County Magistrate "Lu Baishui"

"Hey, who did I think it was? It turned out to be the little butcher Hu! Our adults heard that there is a dispute here, so I want you to go over and ask about it! If you have any grievances, you can appeal to the adults!"

The guard surnamed Li greeted Hu Tuhu warmly, but his behavior was still business-like.

Officer Li is enthusiastic on the surface, but in his heart he wants to scold his mother.

Their master is watching over there!This Hu Xingwang's blatant solicitation is really fucking annoying!

"me……"

Jin Da was very panicked, he was just an oil seller, although he lived in Jingshan County, he really hadn't greeted the officials.

Not to mention greetings, every time they saw the county magistrate's sedan chair passing by on the street, they hid far away.

As a modern person who is not personally on the scene, it is difficult to understand the difference between the status of ordinary people and officials in ancient times.

Jin Daben was honest and not good at words. Whenever he said that he wanted to see the county magistrate, his body began to shake and frightened.

Seeing that Hu Xingwang was walking towards the county magistrate's sedan chair vigorously, while his own son was shaking like chaff, Mr. Jin was in a hurry!

"Grandmother, neither the old woman nor our boy can speak... Please help... help the villain to talk!"

The old lady Jin was much more enlightened than her son. She had seen Qin Shao confront the shopkeeper Chen before, and she was articulate, and seeing him dressed and dressed like a scholar, she knelt down in front of Qin Shao and begged.

Country people like them can quarrel, but when they see officials, they basically become tongue-tied.

"Grandma, you just go ahead. If we need to be a witness, we will naturally tell what we have seen!"

Qin Shao saw that the old man was pitiful, so he could only agree.

He still doesn't know how this ancient case was decided, so it doesn't hurt to go and have a look.

Under the guidance of the yamen servants, everyone went to a spacious place, and they saw a sedan chair.

"My lord, the relevant personnel have arrived!"

The yamen servant shouted at the people in the sedan chair, and then whispered a few times against the sedan chair.

I saw the car door open, and a bearded, stout, dark-faced man bent over from inside.

This appearance is indeed quite different from the county magistrate Qin Shao imagined.

I don't know, I thought that some battlefield warrior got into someone else's sedan chair.

A yamen servant took out a bench from somewhere and put it in front of the sedan chair, and the man sat down slowly.

Everyone knelt down and bowed down.

Qin Shao was a little baffled, seeing that everyone around him was kneeling, he could only kneel with the crowd.

I heard that in ancient times, people had to kneel before seeing officials, unless they had status, such as after passing the exam.

This sudden kneeling still surprised him. You must know that in his original world, apart from kneeling to the sky and kneeling to his parents, basically who rarely kneels.

Unexpectedly, when he came here, he didn't kneel down to his cheap father, but kneeled down to the county magistrate here first.

"I beg the elder to be the master of the little people. This guy is greedy for hiding the villain's silver. It is obvious that the villain lost 30 taels. He insisted that it was 15 taels. It is obvious that he hid it!"

As soon as the county magistrate was done, Hu Xingwang went up and cried, with snot and tears, like a dead old lady.

Qin Shao was really stunned!
Grandma, this is really the first move!
On the other hand, Jin Da's mother and son, Jin Da's body was shaking, and Jin's old lady's face turned red.

"I heard the general situation just now, Jin Da, have you ever embezzled his silver taels?"

The magistrate of Lu asked directly.

He thought it was a big deal, but he didn't expect it to be such a trivial matter.

The refugees are running around everywhere recently. Lu Lianxian has a lot of work to do. Finally, I have a free day today, so I can get off work early. I just want to buy something on the street, and I don't want to encounter such a thing.

"The villain didn't...no, only...found 15 taels."

Although Jin Da was nervous, he still answered truthfully.

Lu Lianxian felt that this matter was just a matter of nonsense. According to the past practice, since this matter has not been found out, the case should be accepted first, and the person should be recorded.

He was just about to tell the yamen servant next to him to ask the clerk to come over and record the case, and the others would take him into custody, when a voice suddenly rang out.

"My lord, we are wronged!"

Mrs. Jin was also very scared when she saw the county magistrate, but thinking about it, she had to get ahead for her son.

"Grandma, why are you wronged? The matter has not been investigated clearly, how can you talk nonsense!"

Lu Lianxian looked at Mrs. Jin, he also acted according to the rules, why did some people complain about injustice, why is it so troublesome to be a civil servant!

Lu Lianxian was originally a military officer. He had been at the border for many years. He had just been in Jingshan for more than three months.
A few years ago, a colleague of his father-in-law was promoted to be the Minister of the Ministry of Officials in Shangjing. The father-in-law saw that his son-in-law was exposed to wind and rain at the border, and he was older than his father-in-law.

He couldn't bear to be separated from his daughter for a long time, so he dredged up the relationship and got him the post of magistrate of Jingshan County.

Lu Lianxian is quite a straightforward person, but he has been in the army for many years, he always likes to act neatly, and he uses a big knife to talk about things.

For example, he followed King Xing and Zhifu to defend the city and fight against thieves, but he took the lead, which is refreshing.

Nowadays, dealing with such trivial things as the owner losing a chicken and the west being bitten by a dog all day long is really annoying!

When Mrs. Jin heard the county magistrate's loud reprimand, she lost her attention for a while, and only wept and wept.

Qin Shao couldn't bear it, he had already seen that the county magistrate was probably not proficient in business.

I heard people talking about it before, and the county magistrate has only been in office for a few months.

"My lord, the student has a suggestion, I don't know whether to say it or not."

Lu Lianxian was upset about this matter and didn't know how to deal with it.

He suddenly heard a person talking, looked up and saw a young man, although he was not very old, but he had a tall figure, and his behavior was upright and generous, which made him feel a little good.

"you are?"

Lu Lianxian asked doubtfully.

"The student is a passerby. I was eating at the soup and pancake shop in front of me. I happened to see what happened. I heard that the adults are upright and honest, and they like to accept good advice. The student wanted to offer a suggestion or two."

"Are you a reader?"

"I've been studying for a few years, and I haven't achieved any fame yet, but students usually prefer to dance with guns and clubs!"

Qin Shao has already seen that this person does not behave like a scholar, but more like a martial artist.

Sure enough, when Lu Lianxian heard that he liked to dance with guns and clubs, his eyes brightened a lot.

He was most annoyed by those sloppy scholars, especially when he accepted the post of Jingshan County Magistrate. Those former officials, such as the county magistrate and the Dian Shi, deliberately discredited him.

Knowing that he was not familiar with those trivial cases, not only did he not help, but he even made a fool of himself on purpose!

If it was at the border, he would have given those people a few sticks, especially the Qin Xiancheng, who was always in love with others, and he would get angry when he saw it.

Look at how neatly this kid speaks, he is still a martial arts practitioner.

"Okay! Very good! Tell me how to deal with this matter better!"

Qin Shao didn't expect the county magistrate Lu to ask such a straightforward question.

According to his brain circuit, he just gave some on-demand broadcasts, so that County Magistrate Lu can attribute the credit to himself.

It seems that this is also a sincere person!

"Students dare not make a judgment! This Jin Da picked up 15 taels of silver and came here to find the owner; Hu Xiaobutcher lost 30 taels of silver and is looking for the lost property again! The two amounts are not the same. Does this mean that Jin Da The silver taels picked up may not have been lost by the little butcher Hu!"

"Since this is the case, the silver taels picked up by Jin Da can be handed over to the Yamen, but when the real owner comes to claim it, it will be considered a good deed. Hu Xiaobutcher's silver has been lost, and no one has come to deliver it now. You can report to the police to find it."

Qin Shao said calmly.

After speaking, Qin Shao looked up to see the reaction of Nalu County Magistrate.
