"What case?" Chen Yue asked impatiently.

"It seems to be about the lady of the He family. The specific subordinates are not clear. Constable Song brought the person back and is waiting outside now."

"Okay, okay, you go down first, I will go there immediately." Chen Yue waved his hand and said.

The affairs of the two families of Duke Zhao and Duke Wei have not been resolved yet, and there is another trivial matter to be dealt with. Chen Yue regretted it very much. If he had known that being a county magistrate in the capital would be like this, he should not have relied on the power of his family to sit in this position three years ago. It would be better to go to another state to be a free and easy prefect.

There is no trivial matter under the feet of the emperor. An ordinary case in the capital may be heard by the emperor. If it is not handled well, there is a possibility of packing up and returning to his hometown.

"It's that He again..."

Chen Yue frowned, stood up and walked out.

Although he was the county magistrate of the capital, he was also a branch of the Chen family. If it were not for the support of the Duke's Mansion, there would be no Chen Yue today. Of course, he had to pay attention to what they told him.

What happened twenty years ago? Chen Yue had heard others say that before the wedding, the eldest son of a noble family who was married to the Duke's Mansion of Chen eloped with a commoner woman, causing the Duke's Mansion of Chen to lose face and become a laughing stock among the wealthy families in the capital.

The young lady of the Chen family remained unmarried for life and still lives in the Duke's Mansion until now.

Now that the Duke's Mansion is in its heyday, another noble family that was once prominent has gradually declined, and the woman's family has also been affected. The Duke's Mansion cannot do things too decisively for some reasons, but it will not make them feel good .[△网WwW.]

Chen Yue was ordered by the Duke's Mansion to "take care" of the He family in the past three years.

……

The county hall is actually a very majestic place. A huge plaque hangs in the middle, with the words "A clear mirror hangs high" written on it. Two rows of yamen runners stand on both sides with water and fire sticks in their hands, and their faces are solemn. They will keep hitting the ground with sticks and shout "mighty" when the county magistrate hits the gavel, directly hitting the psychological defense line of the prisoner.

Li Yi has long been accustomed to all this and is not affected at all. Li Xuan is naturally not to mention. Even Miss Liu can look at the layout here and comment on it. The capital is indeed the capital. The county hall is full of grandeur, which is much more magnificent than the Anxi County Hall.

As for the woman and the little girl, they are not so calm. The woman is pale and can barely keep calm. The little girl is tugging at the corner of her mother's clothes, and her bright big eyes are full of panic.

"Little sister, what's your name?" Li Yi walked to her side, squatted down, and said with a smile.

These bastards, if such a young child is frightened, it will probably form a psychological shadow for life.

The little girl bit her lip, and after a long time, she gently uttered two words, "Duanwu."

"Duanwu, what a nice name, you just treated me to noodles, now I treat you to food, okay?" Li Yi looked at her and said.

"Noodles, you have to pay." The little girl shook her head, looked at him, and said timidly.

"Duanwu, what are you talking about!" The woman pulled her behind her and hurriedly said to Li Yi: "Young master, don't listen to her..."

Li Yi was stunned when he heard the words, and then laughed, turned to look at Li Xuan, and asked: "Do you have silver with you? I forgot to pay for the noodles just now."

Li Xuan certainly didn't bring silver with him, and a discerning guard handed him an ingot in time.

"Mom, change the money." It seems that the little girl was not as scared as before because of Li Yi's influence. She took the silver ingot and handed it to her mother.

She had only seen silver coins, and knew that whenever a customer paid with such things, her mother would always give back a lot of copper coins.

"You are rude, give the silver back quickly..." When the woman scolded the little girl with a stern face, Li Yi waved his hand, took out a paper bag from his arms, opened it, put it in front of the little girl, and said, "Can I treat you to food now?"

The paper bag contained candied fruit given to him by the little fat man. In exchange, Li Yi had to conceal the fact that he had a fight with someone outside. As for the bruises on his face, the official explanation to the outside world was that they were caused by a fall.

Of course, this fall must be very skillful. It is impossible for an ordinary person to fall like this without ten or eight years of hard work. The little fat man may be gifted------it depends on whether his parents believe it.

It must be said that the little fat man's attainments in eating are still not shallow, and the one he gave to Li Yi is the best of the best.

Smelling the fragrance of candied fruit, the little girl swallowed her saliva, but did not reach out immediately. She looked up at him, a trace of desire flashed in her eyes, and asked: "Do you want money?"

"This is my brother's treat, no money." Li Yi smiled and said.

"Thank you, brother." The little girl finally reached out her hand, took only one piece, divided it into two halves, handed the extra half to the woman, looked back at Li Yi, and said: "Next time I will treat my brother to noodles, no money..."

The yamen runners around were almost dumbfounded.

I have never seen such an arrogant person in the court. Not to mention the conversation with laughter, now he is actually eating. Does he really take them seriously?

But don't say, what is the little girl eating, it smells so good, I really want to taste a piece...

Swallowing his saliva secretly, no yamen runner dared to do so. Those who dared to be so presumptuous in the court were either crazy or really had someone to rely on. Those who could carry guards with them were obviously not the former.

They just needed to pretend that they didn't see it. The trouble was left to the county magistrate.

Li Xuan was surprised to see it from the side. Finally, he couldn't help but pull Li Yi aside and asked, "Have you known this little girl before?"

"The first time I saw her." Li Yi shook his head.

Li Xuan's face was even more puzzled. It was the first time he saw Li Yi so friendly to a stranger. He asked suspiciously, "You are not going to be with this little girl..."

"Get lost!"

Li Yi spit out a word without hesitation. This guy's thoughts were too dirty. She was just a child...

His good impression of this little girl was completely derived from an inexplicable sense of intimacy. It might be that seeing her appearance touched some memories. After all, he had suffered a lot when he was a child------Let's just think that she was more in line with his eyes.

Li Xuan looked at the little girl again with curiosity, took out a piece of candied fruit from the paper bag in Li Yi's hand, and just threw it into his mouth, a voice of rebuke came from the front.

"How dare you, the court is not a restaurant, who are you, how dare you be so presumptuous in the court, so bold!"

Seeing the middle-aged man in official uniform coming out of the back hall, Li Xuan chewed slowly and swallowed the candied fruit, wiped his mouth, and then raised his head and looked at the man and said: "Today I saw bullies bullying the good on the street, and the officials didn't care, and even helped the tyrants. We are reading the books of sages. Although we are common people, we are also upright. I want to ask the county magistrate, in this capital, under the feet of the emperor, is there still the law?"

"Books of sages, common people?" Li Yi was stunned when he heard it, looked at Li Xuan, and then looked at the middle-aged man in the hall, and was speechless for a while.

"Did the sage teach you to be unbridled in court?" Chen Yue heard this, his eyes flashed slightly, and he slammed the gavel and said loudly. Mobile users please visit m.read for a better reading experience.
