Eighth Ye's Savage Concubine

Chapter 437 An Anonymous Letter
"The lower official knows that His Highness the Xian Wang doesn't believe what the lower official said, but everything the lower official said is true."

Kneeling in front of Bai Jinchu, although the county magistrate was kneeling, his back was straight and his head was slightly raised.

On his face, Bai Jinchu could no longer find the slightest bit of nervousness and fear, and then put on a very serious expression.

There was never a seriousness in his eyes.

The county magistrate seemed to be a different person the moment he knelt down just now.

"His Royal Highness the Xianwang doesn't need to trust the lower officials, but the lower officials would like to ask His Royal Highness the Xianwang. The magistrate concealed the disaster and did not report it. How did the court know that there was a flood here?"

Hearing the magistrate's words, Bai Jinchu frowned slightly.

Before he came here, he did hear that the magistrate here deliberately concealed the disaster and did not report it.

The imperial court was able to know the disaster situation here entirely because it received an anonymous informant letter.

Is it...

Looking down at the county magistrate kneeling in front of him, a suspicion suddenly arose in Bai Jinchu's heart.

The county magistrate saw him looking at him with complicated eyes, and then said: "With the wisdom of His Royal Highness, it shouldn't be difficult to guess that the lower official is the informer.

The lower officials have low official positions, and the prefect colludes with bandits.The lower official also pretended to be close to him in order to save the lives of himself and his family.

However, with the salary of the court, the lower officials naturally have to share the worries of the court and seek the well-being of the people.

Xiaguan really couldn't bear to see the lives of the people here were worse than pigs and dogs, so he took the risk to write a letter of whistleblowing, asking those people who were capable of escaping from here to hand over to Xiaguan's good friend, Lord Qi. "

Facing Bai Jinchu neither humble nor overbearing, the magistrate spoke slowly.

Hearing this, Bai Jinchu nodded slightly, completely letting go of his guard against the county magistrate.

"That's right, that informant letter was indeed presented to the royal father by Lord Qi. But why did you beat the mother and son that day? Why didn't you say anything when you already guessed the identity of the king?"

"My lord doesn't know that there are many informants of the magistrate in the small town, in order not to expose myself, I can only choose to do so.

The prince should have had a doctor check up on the mother and son, but in fact, the lower officials didn't deal with them hard at all.

Originally, I didn't want to be honest with His Highness the Xian Wang so quickly, but I just found out today that the magistrate already knew that there were spies in the town.

He wanted to investigate the matter thoroughly after dealing with His Royal Highness King Xian.If he wants to investigate strictly, he will definitely investigate the lower officials. "

"So you just want to inform the king. As long as the king punishes the magistrate, you and your family will be safe, right?"

"Not bad!"

The county magistrate's eyes moved slightly, and he nodded slightly.

Bai Jinchu stretched out his hand, wanting to help him up from the ground, but the county magistrate refused.

"His Royal Highness, let me say something disrespectful. In fact, when I learned that the court sent you to rescue the disaster, my heart was originally desperate.

Everyone says you are a cripple, and the court sent you here. Doesn't this mean that we have given up on our small town?

But when the next official met you for the first time, he found that you were different from what the rumors said.

By your side, there is a guard who knows martial arts, and a very powerful princess.

After leaving that day, hope rose again in Xiaguan's heart.Perhaps your arrival can change the current situation of our small town. "

As he spoke, the county magistrate's eyes moved slightly.

He suddenly leaned down and kowtowed to Bai Jinchu: "His Royal Highness, you are the hope of the people in our town. I request you to punish the magistrate severely and make decisions for the people!"

"Don't worry, since this king has come here, he will definitely punish the prefect, a corrupt official!"
