Chapter 852
The steward of the Shang family was delighted to hear this, Fang Congwen's words were almost exactly the same as his own, and it also confirmed that his original guess that he came for Du Niangzi's affairs was correct.

He didn't look at Brother Hu's unspeakable expression of suffering in front of this generous gift, but he said cheerfully, "Unexpectedly, Mrs. Du and Mr. Fang are also old acquaintances, and my lady ordered me to come here."

With the backing of the two largest families in this county, they lent him great courage, and he didn't dare to trouble her again, not to mention that she herself was not easy to mess with.

After finally sending away the two big Buddhas, Brother Hu couldn't help but stare at the two generous gifts on the table in a daze.

He would rather they beat him up like Lao Lu, so he was still determined, but it was these two heavy gifts that left him at a loss as to what to do.

Just when he thought it was all over, he didn't think there was anything more serious waiting for him.

Speaking of which, since Ling Fan came back from the town yesterday, his face was gloomy and ugly.

After Lin Mosheng returned to the county office, he plunged into the file and didn't have time to pay attention to him. He had to prepare for the autumn exam after sorting out the file, so he really didn't have the time to guess what Ling Fan was thinking.

Unexpectedly, the next day, before dawn, the county magistrate was in a good mood and had someone call him over, and took him to inspect the county government prison without eating breakfast.

Lin Mosheng was puzzled. The cell was emptied more than half a month ago. Du Xiang gathered the prisoners to repair the canal. The prisoners in this cell have been taken away long ago. The cell is empty, and even the jailer is on vacation. What else is there to inspect? Could it be that the adults took the opportunity to repair the county jail?
But since Ling Fan called, Lin Mosheng had no right to say no. Apart from him, he was accompanied by the head arrester and two police officers from the county.But there is no master in charge of such repairs.

Although Lin Mosheng didn't know what he meant, he still obediently followed behind him.

There were only two guards left in the county prison, and when the county magistrate came over, he hurriedly saluted and greeted him.

Ling Fan waved his hand to dismiss the salute, and only let them open the door, saying that they would go in for inspection.

The jailer also looked at each other in dismay when he heard the words, not knowing what the magistrate's intention was, but he opened the door anyway.

There was no light in the prison, and the guards lit the oil lamps all the way. Ling Fan beckoned Lin Mosheng to come forward, then pointed to the empty cell and said, "Do you think it's too empty?"

Lin Mosheng couldn't figure out what he was thinking, so he could only say in a reasonable manner, "It is the adults who govern well that make the people of Lou County abide by the law."

Ling Fan nodded when he heard the words, and seemed very satisfied with Lin Mosheng's words, but he took out a token from his pocket and threw it into Lin Mosheng's pocket, saying, "Yes, the people in this county have obeyed the law, but the towns and villages below However, there is a person who bullies others, expropriates them, and oppresses the common people. If you take someone to arrest him and bring him to justice, the county should let him know that the prison in this county is not just a decoration."

Hearing what he said, Lin Mosheng still didn't understand, but in his heart, Ling Fan's actions were just superfluous.

As for Du Xiaozhu's ability, he believes very much. If she really encounters something that she can't solve, she will definitely not let go of the opportunity to take advantage of it in Zuixian Tower yesterday, but she chose not to say it. She can only say that she has better solution.

Originally, he thought Master Ling wouldn't meddle in such nosy matters, and he would suddenly mention it this morning.
