Chapter 665
The village woman was stunned when she heard the words, and slowly turned her head to look at Qingluo.

"No, can't you?" She stammered, "Magistrate...why, why is she such a little girl?"

The two older people following the village woman also looked at Qing Luo in shock.

The yamen servant gloated and said, "Why not? Could it be that I don't even recognize my magistrate?"

The village woman's face was a little pale, pointing at Liu Heping and his son: "Then, then they are..."

"They are my lord's father and brother."

thump!
As soon as the village woman's knees softened, she knelt down to Qingluo, "Master Zhixian, please forgive me. I really didn't know you were Lord Magistrate. I didn't mean to offend you. Please don't be angry..."

Qing Luo didn't let her get up, she let her kneel down and said: "I don't care about you breaking into the court..."

The village woman was overjoyed: "Ah, thank you sir..."

Qingluo interrupted her: "Don't thank me in a hurry, go and pay the fine."

"Punish...a fine?"

"Yes," Huang Butou stepped in and said, "This is a new rule established by our lords. As long as it is not a major crime of murder and arson, you can use money to atone for other trivial matters. You broke into the court... I think See how much you have to pay!"

He took down a booklet hanging on the wall, opened it to look for a while, stopped on a certain page, and read: "No. 20 seven, those who break into the court without reason, each will be fined three taels of silver."

The village woman stared wide-eyed: "Three, three two?"

For an ordinary peasant family, this is almost a year's expenses.

"Everyone is three taels!" Huang Butou corrected with a serious face, "There are three of you, and nine taels is the same. Go to Mr. Lin Liu and hand it over now!"

The scholar behind the village woman said, "My lord, we didn't bring that much money."

"It's okay," Qingluo wrote lightly, "write a note and put a deposit, you just go back and pick it up."

Anyway, I'm not afraid of them running away.

Living in the boundary of Pingyang County, who dares to owe money to the Yamen?
The scholar found it difficult to accept, "My lord, your rules are too..."

"What's too much?" Qing Luo glanced at him, "Don't you want to eat in the Yamen? You scumbags come and make trouble when you have nothing to do. You don't need the servants to deal with it? You won't let you bleed, and you still treat the Yamen as the back garden of your home. Want to come here?" Just come, go if you want to go!"

The village woman was still kneeling on the ground, kowtowed and said: "Lord magistrate, we are here to discuss with you about Miss Yushu's marriage, we are not intruding into the court!"

"Yu Shu's marriage?" Qing Luo looked at Yu Shu.

Yushu lowered her head, unable to speak.

"That's right. Ms. Yushu and my son see each other right now." When this matter was mentioned, the village woman became beaming. "I thought, anyway, the marriage will be done sooner or later, so it's better to let Ms. Yushu pass by now. You can also take good care of my son and let my son concentrate on studying and taking exams."

Qing Luo raised her eyebrows: "You said that you let Yu Shu pass by to serve your son?"

"Yes. It's okay to have children, but Yushu is too young. Let's talk about it in two years. Right now, my son's academic achievement is the most important..." The village woman said proudly, "In the academy, Mr. I said, next time we take the exam, Lu Xuan will definitely be admitted as a scholar..."

"Your name is Lu Xuan?" Qingluo looked at the scholar and asked, "Do you want to marry Yushu?"

The scholar nodded: "I can do it, let my parents decide."

"You married her also to serve you?"

"It's not all right, I think Miss Yushu is pretty good. She is quiet and hardworking, and she can manage the family even after she gets married, and she is filial to her in-laws..."

"So why don't you buy a servant to go back?" Qingluo interrupted him, "At least he can still receive a monthly payment, what can Yushu get?"

Lu Xuan shook his head, and said disapprovingly: "Master Zhixian's words are biased. Isn't a woman marrying for the sake of her husband and children? How can you only think about getting something?"

Qing Luo sneered: "The reason for marrying is to be a cow or a horse for your family?"

Lu Xuan: "Our family also needs to support her, otherwise she is a woman, what will happen when she gets older? Why don't we have to rely on men."

Qingluo sized him up again, "Is this what your academy taught you? It seems that it is necessary for me to visit your academy."

Qing Luo is the official of the parents, and all matters in Pingyang County are under her control.

It also includes education.

Lu Xuan was a little nervous when he heard this: "My lord, this is not taught by the academy, but it has been like this since ancient times."

"Being like this since ancient times doesn't mean it's right." Qing Luo was a little impatient, "Yu Shu is here with me, and I can make her a daughter for the rest of her life. There's no need for you to be your cows and horses. You can go!"

"Oh, don't forget to pay the fine," she added.

Lu Xuan: "..."

"Lord magistrate, this is a lifelong matter for Miss Yushu, you can't make a decision at will, right?" Another young man said, "I'm afraid you should ask Miss Yushu about this matter first."

"You don't need to ask!" Qingluo said arrogantly, "I'm the one who decides about Yushu!"

"Master magistrate, you are too..." Scholar Lu Xuan wanted to say that she was unreasonable, but he was afraid of her status as magistrate, so he dared not say it.

"Come on, drive them out. Whoever dares to let them in in the future will get out of the Yamen!" Qing Luo ordered the Yamen servants, pulled Yu Shu away, and turned her head, "Father, brother, you come too."

When Liu Heping and his son heard her address, they hardly cried agitatedly, and hurriedly followed behind her.

"You can't go!" The village woman stood up and said boldly, "You are the county magistrate, but you can't break people's marriage. The magistrate is not the biggest in this world..."

Qingluo sneered: "It's true that I'm not the biggest in this world, but unfortunately, I'm the biggest in Pingyang County, so I have the final say!"

"The county magistrate can't be unreasonable!" the village woman said and pulled Yushu's arm.

A few yamen servants saw that someone was making trouble with the county magistrate in the courtroom, is that okay?
They used water and fire sticks, and they beat the village women like a mess!
"Why are you beating people casually! We didn't commit a crime!" Lu Xuan and another young man rushed over to protect the village woman.

When the yamen servant saw it, he hated it even more.

As a result, Lu Xuan also suffered many blows, his head was bleeding, and he looked a little scary.

"Brother Xuan!" Yushu turned her head and saw it, called out, and fell down on her face.

Qingluo was shocked, she stretched out her hand and found that she just passed out.

Just as she was about to withdraw her hand, she suddenly felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly put her hand on Yushu's wrist pulse.

"Come on, feed her some water." Liu Heping ran to pour Guancha and handed it to Qingluo.

Qingluo took the bowl and sprinkled a little on Miss Yushu's face, Yushu woke up leisurely, saw Qingluo, grabbed her sleeve, and said in tears: "Sister, please spare Brother Xuan and the others, don't fight again He..."

With a sullen face, Qingluo helped her up.Leaving the left and right, leaving only Liu Heping and his son, the village woman, Lu Xuan and others, they shouted coldly, "Lu Xuan, you are so brave!"

 ps: There are more.
