Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

Early the next morning, Yan Mu came to the county government office.

I asked the gatekeeper to report inside. After waiting for a long time, I saw Magistrate Nawen coming out of the house. He was leading a group of officials behind him, walking in a hurry.

Yan Mu hurriedly stepped forward. Magistrate Nawen glanced at him, but ignored him and passed him by.

Yan Mu frowned, how dare a small county magistrate ignore him like this!
But he is not the King of Zhenbei, he is really just a small teacher. Since he has something to ask the county government, the county magistrate should not have this attitude.While Yan Mu was fuming, the officer who went to report came out. He wanted to explain to him, but was startled by his gloomy expression.

"Someone killed someone with a knife on Changshui Street. Our county magistrate is in a hurry to deal with the matter. We don't have time to see you right now."

After hearing this explanation, Yan Mu's anger subsided a little.

When walking back, he thought about it and changed his route to Changshui Street.

The place where the accident happened was in an alley on Changshui Street. There were many people surrounding the alley entrance. Yan Mu managed to squeeze in, but the road was blocked by officials.

In the alley, a tall man, about thirty years old, held a young woman hostage. The knife in his hand was pressed against the woman's neck. There was a man lying next to them. The man fell to the ground with a pool of blood under his body. Blood.

"You all get out of the way! Let me go! Otherwise I'll kill her!" the man shouted from Magistrate Wen's side.

Magistrate Wen's face was grave, "Zhang Hu, you are so stupid that you dare to kill someone. Let your wife go quickly. If you hurt her, your crime will be even more serious!"

"The adulterer deserves to die! She deserves to die too!" Zhang Hu's face turned green and red. Because of his anger, the man holding his hand was trembling. He had already cut the flesh on the woman's neck and blood was flowing down.

The woman was so frightened that she kept crying and whispered: "I didn't... I didn't..."

Magistrate Wen said loudly: "You are idle all day long and do not do your job properly, while your wife works from dawn to dusk to support you and your two children. Now that she has only spoken a few words to the neighbor, you have to doubt her. You are so abominable for doing extreme things!"

"No, I saw them entangled in the house with my own eyes!"

"I tripped while carrying water. Brother Zhang happened to see me as he passed by the gate of our courtyard, so he kindly helped me into the house. It was not what you thought at all." The woman was scared and angry.

"You and him have been flirting with each other all day long, don't think I don't know!"

"No, I really didn't...ah..." Before the woman could finish her sentence, the man behind her grabbed her hair and knocked her hard against the wall next to her.

At this time, three official officers appeared at the other end of the alley, approached slowly, and then took advantage of this opportunity to pounce on them.

The man was fierce and not afraid at all. He noticed the official behind him, turned around and stabbed him.The official was unable to dodge and was stabbed in the arm, while the man's eyes were red and he stabbed his wife like crazy.

"Quick! Stop him!" Magistrate Wen shouted.

The officers rushed forward, but their speed was not as fast as the man swinging his knife. They saw that the woman was about to suffer.At this juncture, a pebble hit the man on the wrist, causing the man's arm to twist.At the same time, Yan Mu also rushed over, jumped up, and protected the woman. When the man came over again with a knife, he broke his arm directly.

With the man's screams, the situation was finally brought under control.

County Magistrate Wen hurriedly stepped forward to check on the man who had been stabbed and lying on the ground. When he realized that he could still be saved, he hurriedly asked the official to take him to the hospital.

"Wait a minute." Yan Mu stopped him.

Magistrate Wen frowned, "Any later, people will run out of energy."

Yan Mu was speechless: "You didn't see that his wound was bleeding. Before you could send him to the hospital, his blood would have dried up." While speaking, Yan Mu simply bandaged the man and stopped it first. When he started to bleed, he asked the official to take him to the hospital.

Magistrate Wen looked at him, his eyes full of admiration, but also a little confused.

"They all deserve to die! Damn it!" Zhang Hu shouted loudly while being tied up.

But his wife was so frightened that she collapsed to the ground and said with dull eyes: "Why do I have such a miserable life? Marrying a lazy man, not only do I have to support him, but I also have to be beaten and humiliated by him every day."

County Magistrate Wen stepped forward and said in a gentler voice: "Madam Zhang, he deliberately killed someone and will spend the rest of his life in a prison cell. This county will uphold justice for you and let you two reconcile. From now on, you will lead Just keep the baby and the days will get better and better."

After hearing Magistrate Wen's words, the woman seemed to gain strength. She stood up supporting the wall and couldn't help but thank him.

"As long as I can get rid of this bastard, I'm not afraid of it no matter how hard or tiring it is."

After the matter was settled, Magistrate Wen asked the officer to take the prisoner into the cell first and wait for another day for trial.After the explanation, Magistrate Wen walked up to Yan Mu and thanked him first.

"Are you the new gentleman from Banshan Academy?"

Yan Mu nodded, "Yes."

Magistrate Wen sighed, "Why do you have the same temper as that old man?"

County Magistrate Wen took Yan Mu out of the alley, "Last year, if he would have listened to my advice and not gone to the Yangzhou government office to cause trouble, Banshan Academy would not have been disqualified."

"I'll tell you the truth, Lord Wen, this is why I came to you today."

"guessed."

County Magistrate Wen then talked about what happened that day. It turned out that Xu Jingyu was found to have faked his household registration and was found guilty by the court. It was originally a serious crime, but Prince Shun came forward to protect him and exempted him from punishment and sent him back to Yangzhou Mansion.

However, the Yangzhou government could not escape the responsibility for slackness. At that time, an official responsible for supervising the rural examination was dismissed.The culprit was sent back, and although he was exempted from the serious crime, the Yangzhou government had to interrogate him no matter what. He went through the motions and was imprisoned for two or three months if he could not get bail, so the matter was over.

"Tell me, is it right for Yangzhou Prefecture to do this?"

Yan Mumo was right, Xu Jingyu made a big mistake after all.

Magistrate Wen sighed, "Originally, this matter could have gone away, but old man Bai was aggrieved for this student. He refused to listen to my advice and went to Yangzhou Mansion to cause trouble. What kind of place is Yangzhou Mansion? How can you allow you to mess around? Doesn't this take away the qualification of Banshan Academy to recommend students. The reasons given by others are also sufficient. First, Xu Jingyu is a student from Banshan Academy. Second, Old Man Bai does not correct his mistakes. How can he teach good students? In this way, things are It’s become like this. Old Man Bai came to me before and asked me for help. I went to Yangzhou Mansion to try, but I really didn’t have the ability."

Yan Mu was speechless. It was indeed the old man who had done something wrong on impulse.

"I can only trouble you to go to Yangzhou Mansion to put in a good word for us." Yan Mu said.

"There's really nothing I can do."

After that, Magistrate Wen waved his hand and left first.

Yan Mu frowned. In this case, he could only go to the Yangzhou government office in person.It's just that this trip will inevitably expose his whereabouts. (End of chapter)
