The carriage came down from Xiaoyun Mountain unhurriedly, and as soon as it entered the city and entered the Jiang'an county government office, there was an endless commotion everywhere.

Hua Rujin lifted the curtain of the car and took a closer look, only to see that the gate of the county government office was full of people, and in the middle of a long row of benches were pressed Chen Rui, the county magistrate, Dian Shi and other officials and servants. He was beaten to pieces by the state soldiers standing beside him with a board.

As far as the eye can see, flesh and blood are flying everywhere, and the entire county government gate is a horrible scene.

"It's all due to our government's ineffective supervision and guidance, which made Jiang'an City's officials and officers down to the level of gangsters and collude. The government is responsible for negligence. I am ashamed of all the neighbors and the [-] people in Jiang'an County."

Standing in front of the Yamen, Wen Yuming shouted righteously at the top of his voice:

"Today, the government has decided to temporarily set up a case office in Jiang'an County, transfer Jiangling City Magistrate to special investigation and special trial, and immediately invite the eight prefectures to come and supervise the case of injustices in Jiang'an City. If you have any grievances, you can submit them all. , no matter how big or small the case is, the government swears here today that it will definitely investigate to the end."

After the words fell, there was a burst of applause and applause.

Hearing the discussions around, Ye Chengwei jumped off the horse, and slowly and generously ordered Ting An to escort Hua Rujin and Cheng Nini into the county government office together.

As soon as he reached the front of the yamen, Wen Yuming came to greet him enthusiastically, pulled him to his side, and said to everyone with a smile: "This is Xinke No. For the imperial court, temporarily sit in Ancheng, Zhenjiang."

As soon as Ye Chengwei's name was heard, the surrounding immediately exploded, full of envious eyes and complimenting voices:

"I didn't expect Mr. Ye to be so young."

"He looks great, he is really a good-looking talent, and I don't know if he can get married?"

Hearing this, many people couldn't help looking at Hua Rujin who was very close to him.

There is more or less jealousy in each other's eyes.

Hua Rujin noticed that the eyes of many people around her seemed not to be friendly. When they looked at her, they looked at her as a confidant and enemy, as if she was blocking their way.

Now that I and Zhuangyuan Lang are innocent, there is really no need to provoke public anger at this time.

She helped Cheng Nini and moved a lot of steps to the side calmly, then looked down at the little girl pretending nothing happened, and whispered to her: "I will accompany you to Weng's house later. "

At this time, Ye Chengwei's attention has been focused on searching for Tuhong's figure in the crowd.

After hearing Wen Yuming's arrangement, he raised his head in joy, looked at him meaningfully, and cupped his hands meaningfully:
"The next official will live up to the entrustment of the magistrate, let alone the people of Jiang'an City."

Considering that Jiang'an County is currently short of manpower, if there are too many cases, the scribes from the two counties may be too busy to write the pleadings.

He immediately thought of Hua Rujin in front of him.

This girl's ability that has been highlighted recently has made him more and more optimistic, and her courage and character are barely passable. The people who introduced her to Jiang'an City are much better than those unscrupulous litigators.

So the idea of ​​letting her earn this bonus was born.

It was only when I turned my head to look, that I realized that the person who was in front of me just now had retreated three miles away, as if deliberately alienating me.

He had no choice but to turn his head back calmly, temporarily abandoning this thought.

Wen Yuming said it firmly, but his thoughts had already turned back and forth.

Now he is not only afraid of Ye Chengwei, but also a little afraid of the little girl of the Hua family.

The request from the state government and today's incident on Xiaoyun Mountain made him see how powerful this girl is.

He didn't want to see the two join forces to do something earth-shattering.

Therefore, he never mentioned Hua Rujin, and smiled at Ye Chengyu in a vain and condescending way: "This government is here to congratulate Yezhi County in advance for another outstanding achievement."

After a brief eye contact, the two returned to normal, and looked at the applauding crowd again.

Just at this moment, there was a sudden commotion in the crowd.

Hearing the prestige, he saw a few strong men in the crowd hurrying towards this side, carrying a grand master's chair.

Before he stopped walking, a trembling hand suddenly stretched out from the tightly wrapped grand teacher's chair, shouting one after another, "Nini, Ni Ni."

Knowing that they came to look for the girl Ni Ni, Hua Rujin immediately guessed that it must be someone from the Weng family.

She held the little girl tightly and walked forward slowly.

But Cheng Nini seemed to be a little repelled, and she reluctantly pushed her to the chair that had been carefully put down.

Hua Rujin can feel the panic in the little girl's heart, but she still doesn't have a safe place to stay, so it's hard to keep her by her side.

According to the intention of the old beggar, he wanted to send Nini back to Weng's house.

With heavy eyes, he glanced at the old man who was slowly being helped up by several people.

This person looked to be in his sixties, his lips were terribly chapped, his face was pale and feeble, and there was no trace of blood in his pupils.

Although the day is getting cooler and cooler, but it is not yet the middle of winter, the old man has several layers of warm quilts on his body, as if his death is approaching.

Thinking of the old lady of the Cheng family who passed away, Hua Rujin guessed that this person should be the uncle of the Weng family who has been indifferent to the life and death of Ni Ni's family for the past few years.

Looking at the old man, Hua Rujin asked in a lukewarm tone: "Surely the old man must be Weng Yuanwai?"

"Exactly."

The old man replied in a weak tone, he managed to pull himself together and bowed his hands to the officials in front of the yamen, then looked back at Hua Rujin, and asked with a complicated expression: "You are the Miss Hua who helped Ni Ni's family to clear their grievances? "

"Don't dare to do it, it's just a little effort."

Thinking of what happened on Xiaoyun Mountain today, although Hua Rujin was somewhat dissatisfied with the family, she still apologized solemnly: "Today I helplessly disturbed the soul of the old lady, and please forgive me."

Weng Yuanwai waved his hands with strength: "Sister She's family is in such a catastrophe. If Miss Hua hadn't stepped forward, I still don't know where their family is going. I have to act urgently. Miss Hua's move is understandable."

After all, he had seen some of the world, so he could understand the helpless act of opening the coffin for autopsy.

Full of resentment, he glared fiercely at his son-in-law Liu Jiang who was standing beside him, and when he turned his gaze back to Cheng Nini, his drowsy eyes were filled with tears.

While tremblingly reaching out to grab Cheng Nini, she reprimanded sadly: "Where have you been these past few years, girl? Uncle has been sending people to inquire about the whereabouts of your mother and daughter."

But when his cold and thin fingers touched Cheng Nini's small palm, the girl subconsciously flinched into Hua Rujin's arms.

A young woman in Tsing Yi standing next to her felt very sad, let go of the little boy she was holding and went straight to the little girl, and said softly, "Nini, your uncle has always missed you very much." .”

As he said that, he also glanced at his son-in-law Liu Jiang meaningfully: "Your uncle has been in poor health for the past few years, and when he learned that your grandmother died of a sudden illness, his condition worsened a lot. Your uncle only said that you I and your mother went to look for your father, but so many things happened."

But Liu Jiang put his hands into his sleeves, and argued without blushing, "Hey, I also heard from the people in the county government office. Unexpectedly, the cousin of Cheng's family has already suffered an accident, and the cause of aunt's death is also due to other reasons."

After finishing the words, she looked at Hua Rujin with an embarrassing face: "I wrongly blamed Miss Hua earlier, please don't blame Miss Hua."

"How dare you, how dare you."

Hua Rujin responded casually, and gradually realized that this son-in-law might be obstructing the affairs of Ni Ni's family.

She pushed Cheng Nini to the old man again, and persuaded her earnestly: "Nini, call uncle quickly."

Seeing her old and ill uncle, Cheng Nini held back for a long time, and finally couldn't hold back the hot tears in her eyes, threw herself into his arms and burst into tears.

"Good boy, good boy, don't cry."

Weng Yuanwai was also sobbing, panting anxiously while gently patting the back of his grandniece to comfort him.

After the little girl's mood stabilized, he slowly raised his eyes and looked at Hua Rujin: "Miss Hua is so kind and virtuous, the old family will never forget it, please come to the humble house to tell Miss Hua."

Although she was determined to send Ni Ni back to the Weng family, Hua Rujin was still a little uneasy.

Moreover, there are many things that are inconvenient to go into detail here, so she could only turn her head and look at Ye Chengwei who was standing in front of the yamen.

Because Liu Jiang made a big fuss in Xiaoyun Mountain today, Ye Chengwei didn't have a good impression of the whole Weng family, and he didn't worry about this girl going alone, so he told the book boy: "Ting An, you go with Miss Hua."

"it is good."

After Ting An accompanied Hua Rujin in a carriage and left with Weng's family, Ye Chengwei watched the group go away. When he looked back, he saw a few servants from Jiangling City rushing towards the front of the yamen.
