Traveling back in time to a female virtuous novel, she was forced to make money to support her famil

These government officials were used to being indulged by County Magistrate Yang. They just thought that the county government office was run by their family, and they could come and leave whenever they wanted.

Even the new county magistrate can't control them.

A flash of danger flashed through Mu Yan's eyes, "You mean that I, the new county magistrate, cannot be your master."

The female man put his hands on his waist and raised his head, speaking nonsense.

"We have been in the county government for many years and know everything about Longcheng. The county magistrate needs to consider whether he has the ability."

A farmer burned incense and became a county magistrate. He didn't know how to fawn over them and dared to challenge them here.

A cold arc like a blade crossed the corner of Mu Yan's mouth, "You think so too?"

Being stared at by cold eyes was like a blade piercing the heart.

Everyone looked panicked, but they still kept their mouths shut.

"Yes, what qualifications do you, a farmer, have to be the county magistrate?"

Mu Yan's brows darkened. He knew he could do nothing but three times. He had already been given two chances, but she was blamed for killing him.

"Very good, County Magistrate, according to the laws of Dongning Country, what is the crime of contradicting the County Magistrate?"

The county magistrate took two steps forward and bowed to Mu Yan.

"Sir, if you contradict the county magistrate according to the laws of Dongning Kingdom, you will be punished with twenty sticks and five years of imprisonment."

Seeing how capable they were, Mu Yan couldn't help but laugh.

"Do you think we can't do anything to you now that we have fewer people?"

Taking advantage of their large numbers, the female man spoke arrogantly, "If you have the ability, let's see what the county magistrate is capable of and dares to offend us."

There are more than ten of them and they are afraid that just four people can't make it.

"Su Jishan, Meng Da'an, how long do you want to wait?"

Su Jishan's eyes lit up when she heard the county magistrate calling her name. She had been itching for a long time, and she could finally practice.

Meng Daan wanted to express himself well and prove to the county magistrate that he was a useful person.

The two of them picked up their weapons and had the momentum of sharpening their swords against pigs and sheep.

Seeing the magistrate's calm demeanor, the county magistrate knew that these people had nothing to fear, so he calmly picked up the tea cup and sat down to enjoy the performance.

These people are rotten to the core. They are even more arrogant and domineering on weekdays, and their attitude towards the people is extremely bad. Today, someone can finally discipline them. It is really a pleasure.

In order to prevent Huaian from seeing too much chaos, Mu Yan took him out to see the scenery.
Su Jishan and Meng Daan both learned their martial arts skills from real swords and guns, and they couldn't compare with these guys who fight with sticks.

In just a short time, more than a dozen people were defeated by two people.

The two of them struck cleanly, leaving no room for them to resist.

When Mu Yan returned, each of them fell to the ground.

Of course there are some pretense ingredients.

Their usual behavior was extremely bad, and the people had long been disgusted with it. How could Mu Yan let them go so easily.

"Su Jishan went to invite the people outside the door to come in and said that I sincerely invite them to watch a good show."

To punish evildoers and kill chickens and monkeys, of course, the more people, the better.

In the blink of an eye, the people watching outside the door followed him in doubt.

As soon as they entered, they saw the government officials who usually bullied the people lying on the ground, and some even moaned in pain.

The people looked at each other in confusion, wondering which song the new county magistrate should sing.

"Fellows, I am the new county magistrate of Longcheng. I believe you all know that I invite you here today to discuss something with you."

The people whispered and the county magistrate discussed things with them. Such things were really rare.

No one at the scene dared to ask questions. Although they were illiterate, they also knew that those who beat the enemy would die early.

What's more, they don't know whether the new county magistrate is good or bad.

Mu Yan took in the expressions of everyone below.

"Do you know who the dozen or so people lying on the ground are?" Someone finally couldn't help but responded, "The county government officials."

Mu Yan pointed at the people lying on the ground, "As county government officials, they contradicted the county magistrate and violated the law, but they said that I was not qualified to deal with them."

When talking about this, some people already showed angry expressions. If these government officials really won the hearts of the people, the people would not ignore them as they fell to the ground.

“I would like to ask all the villagers to list their crimes so that they can be convinced.

Don’t worry, today’s actions will never expose you to their intrusion.

As the magistrate of Longcheng County, I have the responsibility and obligation to protect your safety.Please feel free to expose criminal acts boldly and let justice be served. "

Mu Yan's stance was like a pine and cypress, stable and upright, and her every move seemed calm and composed.

Her words are full of confidence and power, as if they have a penetrating power that makes people deeply believe in her words.

"Your Majesty, what you said is true."

Mu Yan looked at the woman who asked the question with a firm gaze, "I will do what I say."

Seeing that the time was almost up, she ordered the county magistrate behind her, "Can I trouble the magistrate to record the confession?"

The county magistrate stood up and pointed his hand at Mu Yan, saying that he would record it carefully.

Seeing the actions of the county magistrate, the people believed it even more. Looking at the dozen or so people lying on the ground, resentment instantly surged out of their hearts.

"Zhang Gangzi robbed my chickens yesterday and 800 million yuan the day before yesterday."

"Li Fang, she molested my little brother half a month ago. My mother and father resisted with all their strength and she was injured."

With one or two beginnings, the others no longer held back and listed what they had done one by one.

The faces of the people were like dark clouds in autumn, with thick anger gathering between their brows and eyes.

On weekdays, they keep in mind the truth that goes deep into their bones: the people do not fight with the officials.

They suppressed their anger and swallowed every bite of their grievances, because they knew that even if they reported it to the officials, the county government would protect their minions and not give them fair treatment.

But now, the new county magistrate has gone to court to stand up for them, and their grievances have been vindicated.

They no longer need to hide, no longer need to cower.

The county magistrate quickly and accurately recorded the crimes they committed one by one, and the flowing ink seemed to accuse every unfair grievance.

Even though it had been more than two years since I had recorded a confession, I still couldn't stop myself from recording it at such a fast pace, as if the anger deep in my heart had found an outlet to vent.

Mu Yan stood there quietly, becoming a strong and powerful pillar in the hearts of the people.

Looking at the dozens of people with disheveled faces, their arrogance was completely gone at this moment. They got up with all their strength and tried to escape, but when they saw Su Jishan and the two standing beside them, their legs gave out and they fell back.

Mu Yan raised his eyelids and glanced at them coldly. His eyes were like glaciers, which made people shiver.

After the resentment of the people subsided, more than a dozen people who looked ashen-faced slowly spoke.

"Do you still think that I, a peasant county magistrate, can't deal with you?"

They were collectively besieged by the people, and the terrifying suppression made them afraid to speak. Now they finally knew that without the protection of the former county magistrate, they would be doomed today.

The new county magistrate is a ruthless character. He only hates them for believing someone's lies based on hearsay. Otherwise, they wouldn't dare to provoke him easily even if they had the guts to do so.

It's strange that they are used to being arrogant and domineering. They don't know that there are mountains outside the mountains and there are people outside the people.

Mu Yan walked forward slowly, looking down upon them with condescension.

"How does it feel to be sued by all the people? I'm afraid it will be uncomfortable. Don't worry it's not over yet."

More than a dozen people were horrified and quickly knelt down to beg for mercy.

It's a pity that the people will not buy their account at all.

The common people have suffered more than they have, and it is simply ridiculous to ask them to forgive the evildoers now.

"Xian Cheng, what's the crime of contradicting the county magistrate, flouting the law, and oppressing the people?"

The county magistrate stood up and walked forward quickly, "My lord, if you contradict the county magistrate, despise the law, and oppress the people, you will be punished with a cane of 20 years and detained for [-] years."
