Chapter 1219: Honest people are reasonable
Man Gu sat up in a daze, thinking seriously for a moment, and confirmed that this was not a dream.
The reason was simple, he could not have such a dream.
"Two senior brothers, I did not understand the rules of officialdom at the beginning, and provoked County Magistrate Lu, which made County Magistrate Lu always dislike me, but you can't arrest him just for this."
Meng Jingzhou raised his thumbs, indicating Man Gu to put his heart at ease: "We are all doing things according to the rules and regulations. The county magistrate himself has a problem."
Man Gu breathed a sigh of relief. That's right, the two senior brothers are rule-abiding people and will not arrest people for their own selfish desires.
He remembered asking the two senior brothers to come to help, because he came to catch ghosts. If he caught his boss in one night, the answer would be obvious.
"So it was County Magistrate Lu who was playing tricks?"
As expected of the two senior brothers, they solved the problem that had troubled him for three months on the same day.
"That's not the case. We happened to encounter an illegal organization when we were on night shift. We found that County Magistrate Lu had been protecting this organization." Lu Yang said.
"So that's it." Man Gu nodded.
This was not the first time he had dealt with the county magistrate, so he had no psychological burden. He and his two senior brothers Lu Yang had killed the county magistrate in Yanjiang County.
Besides, it was just a county magistrate being captured, not a murder, so it was not a big deal.
Capturing County Magistrate Lu was a big deal, and it could not be hidden. Besides, Lu Yang and the others were upright, so there was no need to hide it. The news that County Magistrate Lu was captured quickly spread throughout the yamen.
"What the hell, County Magistrate Lu was captured by the newcomers?"
Anyone in the yamen who heard the news would be stunned for two seconds, and the brain needed to digest the information for a while.
"Didn't they just join the job yesterday? They captured the county magistrate that night?"
They had worked in the government system for so many years, and they had never seen or heard of such an outrageous thing, let alone seen it.
"What do you think, Lord Zhubu... You are taking medicine, so I won't bother you."
The yamen runners originally wanted to ask the Zhubu for his opinion, but seeing that the Zhubu was trembling while taking the medicine, they left tactfully.
How could the chief clerk not tremble? In the past few years, he had been telling Man Gu not to do this or that. He had heard that County Magistrate Lu disliked Man Gu. If it weren't for Man Gu being the top scholar, he would have been in trouble.
Man Gu's year-end evaluation would depend on the county magistrate's evaluation, so he tried every means to maintain the relationship between Man Gu and the county magistrate.
Now, there is no need to maintain it.
…
"Go to court!" Man Gu rolled up his sleeves in his official uniform and slapped the table with a slap, which was louder than the gavel.
"Bring the prisoner up!"
"Mighty--"
Two young constables who had made great contributions brought County Magistrate Lu up.
Hearing that there was another court session, the people came to watch the excitement. They came to see that it was true this time and they had caught a big official.
When Old Wang and Little Blacksmith Wang saw the two constables escorting County Magistrate Lu last night, they were so surprised that they couldn't close their mouths for a long time.
Didn't they say they were going to catch the Hundred Swords Alliance? Why did they even catch the county magistrate?
"Man Gu, you dare to let them arrest me!" County Magistrate Lu was furious. It was obvious that these two young detectives were ordered by Man Gu!
"Why shouldn't I arrest them... Oh, now I should say that you are corrupt and abuse the law for personal gain. Of course, I have to arrest you!"
"The Hundred Swords Alliance regularly supplies you with spiritual stones. Is that true?"
"No."
"Did you ask the Hundred Swords Alliance to use all means to rob swords from all over the Wasteland State?"
"No."
"One hundred and eight swords were found in your room, ranging from the God Transformation level to the Golden Core level. Are the swords yours?"
"No."
"You violated the court regulations and went to the brothel after get off work. Is that true?"
"No."
Man Gu turned his head and said to the chief clerk who was writing furiously: "Record it. The evidence is conclusive but you refuse to plead guilty. It is not a confession and there is no mitigation of the sentence."
Before going to court, Lu Yang and the other two acted quickly and went back to collect all the evidence, including the ninety-nine people of the Hundred Swords Alliance.
There are too many people in the Hundred Swords Alliance. Before the confessions are completed, the chief and deputy leaders, as well as the Black Tyrant King, are questioned.
It's not a big problem. We can go back and have the confessions completed and go to court again.
"I am an official appointed by the court. No fourth-rank official has the right to deal with me!" County Magistrate Lu became more and more angry. It was a great shame.
"Wait a minute."
Man Gu left this sentence and looked through various regulations in court. He first checked the criminal law to determine the crime, and then checked the criminal procedure law to determine the jurisdiction. Only then did he close the book with satisfaction.
"Look, the law says that as long as it is within the jurisdiction, I can manage it. It doesn't say that low-rank officials can't arrest high-rank officials."
Man Gu showed his identity jade card: "Besides, I am from the Daodao Sect. We disciples of the Daodao Sect have the power to enforce the law."
Man Gu has always regarded Lu Yang and the others as role models. Lu Yang and the others are honest people, and he is also an honest man. Honest people are reasonable.
"Okay, take him back."
Man Gu saw that County Magistrate Lu didn't say anything, so there was no need to interrogate him.
…
The news that Man Gu had captured his immediate superior quickly reached the ears of the high-ranking officials of Huangzhou. The reaction of the high-ranking officials of Huangzhou was not much stronger than that of the people in the government office. They were all stunned for two seconds and suspected that they had heard it wrong.
It is said that history is a reflection of reality, but such a thing has never happened in Dayu, Daqian and Daxia in 300,000 years.
"Look at it in a positive way. At least future generations will have a reference when studying history." One of the high-ranking officials was still in the mood to joke. He had met Man Gu several times and knew that this was something that Man Gu would do.
"There are precedents. This is what was done at the end of every dynasty."
"Song Lord, that's too much. Do you want to say that Man Gu rebelled?"
"That's what you said, not me."
"That's what you meant!"
Seeing that the topic was going in a bad direction, Lu Zhoumu knocked on the table: "Okay, stop joking. Although there is no precedent for this matter, Man Gu's actions are not against the rules. From the evidence submitted, County Magistrate Lu did violate the law and should be removed from office."
"Who should be the county magistrate then? Man Gu? Since he became the county magistrate, he has managed Quyi County in an orderly manner and the economy has also developed significantly."
"Of course the economy can develop significantly. He took advantage of his fluctuation to the fusion stage to go down the mine and open a mine himself. He almost dug out a whole vein. What's the difference between this method and cheating? He can't be the county governor."
"It's enough to develop the economy. Why do you ask so much? His cultivation is there, can't we use it?"
"If not Man Gu, who will be the governor? There are not many people who are willing to do well in Zhongshan County. Who can take on this important task?"
Lu Zhoumu shook his head and made a decision: "Man Gu is really not good enough. Although he is the top scholar, his qualifications are not enough. An extraordinary promotion requires an order from the court. In my opinion, the county magistrate of Guyuan County in Zhongshan County is steady, qualified, and can convince the public. He can be the county governor."
