Chapter 17 Awakening Night
Yan Rujin knew that he was guilty, but he was just trying to scare her, a twelve or thirteen-year-old child.

Like the way he was drinking tea just now, Yan Rujin followed suit.

Wei Wei took a sip of tea, said with a smile: "On the way here, this tiger has already been reserved by Mr. Qiu Zeyan, the son of the richest man."

Seeing the changing colors on Zhixian's face, Yan Rujin could imagine what the magistrate was thinking.

In her hands is Jin Yuwei and the richest man in the Jin Kingdom.

But the one who greeted him was a big local tribute payer, and all the expenses of the yamen were supported by a family of squires like the Yan family.The other is the daughter of the official secretary.

If he had listened to the words of the He family and the Yan family, the Yan family would definitely have generous gifts, and in the capital, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials might be able to promote him one or two...

Just thinking of beauty, but thinking of helping the He family and Yan family, then he would offend Jin Yuwei and the son of the richest man.

Now that the officialdom is clean, I'm afraid that if you check it out, you will be dismissed from office and return to your hometown to make a living. I'm afraid it's not the son of the richest man who will trip you up a little...

Thinking of this, Zhixian's back was covered with cold sweat.

Yan Rujin saw that he was almost thinking about it, so she analyzed it for him.

"My lord, tell me, for no reason, how could I gather these fifteen samurai servants who are in their prime? How can I guarantee that they will listen to me, and the tiger will listen to me?"

Jian Zhixian began to think seriously, and Yan Rujin continued to analyze the magistrate.

"My lord, you've seen it too. I'm just a child of twelve or thirteen years old, facing fifteen samurai servants who are in their prime, who can say that I can kill them?"

Reminded by Yan Rujin, Zhixian couldn't help following his beautiful beard, and began to think: Indeed, if he wants to cover up the current situation, it must be impossible.

It's better to do it impartially, there are explanations left and right.

At this time, Yan Ruoqing, who was standing on the side, spoke at the right time.

"But didn't Miss Yan beat the tiger to death?"

The county magistrate was told by Yan Rujin that he had been thinking all the time. After she said so, he hurriedly said: "Yes, how did you kill the tiger? This is very suspicious."

"It was a coincidence that they went up the mountain to fight with the tiger and suffered heavy casualties..."

The magistrate obviously didn't believe it: "What a coincidence?"

Yan Rujin nodded hastily: "Maybe he just wanted to reward the silver, but was torn and bitten by the tiger and rushed to the top of the mountain."

As he said that, Yan Rujin looked very regretful: "This group of people also, maybe they haven't been in the mountain for a long time, and they all fell into a pothole on the top of the mountain. The tiger also fell in a hurry after chasing people. Go in, this is why so many people died."

At this time, Tao Zi kicked the tiger beside him: "The tiger killed so many people at that time. It was exhausted and fell asleep at the bottom of the pit. It didn't take much effort, and it passed out with a stone."

Yan Rujin didn't expect that this Taozi would still have such a good time.

Hastily nodded innocently: "No, my maidservant has great strength. When she went down to drag the tiger, she was worried, and even smashed the tiger on the wall of the cave, and then dragged it up."

As if afraid that the magistrate would not believe it, Yan Rujin hurriedly said: "Your Excellency, you can send someone to the top of Luofengpo Mountain to have a look, and even the yamen servants will go and have a look, won't you know everything?"

At this time, Yan Rujin intends to lure the county magistrate to Yanjiazhuang.

The county magistrate nodded while twisting his beard slightly, but Yan Ruoqing asked again, "How does Miss Yan know so clearly?"

At this moment, Yan Rujin had to look more at Yan Ruoqing.

Immediately explained: "My mother is seriously ill and my father is unconscious. The family always has to eat. I was looking for food in the mountains, and I saw a tiger biting a man. I was so scared that I hid directly with my maidservant. That's when I saw this scene. "

Yan Rujin immediately pulled Tao Zi over: "My maidservant has all the strength, and I am also bold..."

Speaking of this, the county magistrate was a little unconvinced. Faced with questioning eyes, Tao Zi got instructions from her own lady.

He came to the courtyard neatly, looking left and right, there was nothing suitable, only a large water tank with water in it.

She punched directly, and the pure copper water tank instantly deformed and cracked.

Yan Ruoqing looked at the magistrate and immediately came behind him: "My husband has always loved the people like a son, this case will definitely be handled fairly."

When the county magistrate heard this, he sat upright and nodded slightly: "I personally lead the team to Luofengpo."

With Jin Yuwei in his hand, the richest man in the country, he got a fair chance.

Yan Rujin's heart was indescribably complicated.

As for the magistrate, unable to hold his breath, he hurriedly got up and came to Yan Rujin's side.

"That... Mr. Qiu... is he in Qiyu County?"

Looking at Yan Rujin, she nodded slightly.

"I also hope that Miss Yan will not give up and recommend one or two for me."

Now it was Yan Rujin's turn to handle the county magistrate.

She picked up the teacup unhurriedly, took a sip, slowly, anxious to learn that Xian's forehead would be covered with dense sweat after a while.

"A few of my people were sold to Zhaohonglou, can the county magistrate do anything about it?"

The magistrate hurriedly said: "It's easy to handle, I will send someone to invite you."

"I still have a few people who were intercepted and disappeared."

"This official will post a notice offering a huge reward."

Yan Rujin saw through the county magistrate, and said coldly: "I'll rest at the county government first, and I want to see everyone in an hour."

The county magistrate didn't know where the energy came from, so he hurriedly greeted the master and went out.

He didn't forget to ask Yan Ruoqing to treat Yan Rujin well.

On the way to the backyard of the county government office, Yan Rujin saw that the garden flowers and plants were well taken care of.

He said casually: "It seems that Madam loves flowers and plants very much."

"There's nothing to do, there's nothing to say about love or not."

What she said seemed to mean something, Yan Rujin was slightly thoughtful and did not answer.

I was talking here, but I didn't want Zhixian to rush over.

"It's not good, it's not good, Miss Yan, I'm one step too late, the old bustard said, the person was just sold out."

"Sold it? Where did it go?"

"This human tooth took everyone away, and no one knows where it was sold."

The bad premonition in her heart prevailed. From the time after the post station, she did not believe that such a coincidence existed in this world.

"As soon as I entered the city, I was sold out again, what a coincidence!"

The county magistrate also looked puzzled: "That's not it, the yamen servants replied, the old bustard said that the man was just taken away, and it was less than an hour."

Calculating the time, it wasn't just that she had just entered the city, and her people were all sold out.

I hate it!

Yan Rujin hates herself for being single and weak, she hates herself now, she hates everything for being passive.

For some reason, she was reborn. Originally, she wanted to live a simple life, but everything seemed to cut her with a knife.

Especially she saw, whether it is the daughter of an ordinary farmer, or the wife of the county magistrate.

All women seem to wear an invisible shackle, just like the grandmother wearing anklets.

I'm used to it, it's all like this...

These two sentences kept replaying in Yan Rujin's mind over and over again.

How she got out of the county office in the end, she herself didn't quite know.

However, it was late at night, but she could clearly see that every woman was tied with a chain around her neck.

When she lowered her head, she found that she was also wearing countless heavy chains.

She was not like this in her previous life.

A momentary dizziness caused her to squat down and hug her head.

"Whoosh..."
