Chapter 23

"Your Excellency, the county magistrate, Mingshi, a civilian girl, set up a stall with her mother on Yuanyan Street today to sell home-picked wild fruits, melons and vegetables. Several gangsters came up to ask for protection money. The civilian girl refused to accept and argued with them for several times.

In a sentence, they molested the women of the country and set up a stall. We are all good people, but such viciousness has really ruined the reputation of our place! Please make the decision for the women of the country!"

Mingxiu didn't say a word about her grievances about being molested and having her family's stall demolished. She just kept explaining the consequences of the evil deeds of those little gangsters.

The county magistrate has been here for three years, and the school rating examination is about to take place. After hearing Mingxiu's words, his face suddenly darkened.

Whether good or bad in his jurisdiction is his political achievement. If the people are prosperous, he can be promoted to another level in three years at most. If the people in his jurisdiction are miserable...

It's a good thing that no one from the imperial court came, but if he saw such a scene, his rating would be over.

Moreover, the people who come this year are the students of the current imperial master. They are the most rigorous people and can make sure that the bribery methods used by others will not work. So we have to start from the real place.

They are just a few gangsters, so they shouldn't affect the overall situation, but if someone accuses him, he can't turn a blind eye.

"Come here, bring Zhang Daxiong and others for questioning!"

How many gangsters are there in the town and who is leading them? Even the county magistrate knows all about these trivial matters, so if he wants to take someone now, he must be clear-minded, unlike Mingxiu who turned his eyes dark and even opened up their stall.

No one knows.

"Little girl, don't worry. If I verify that what you described is true, I will definitely make the decision for you."

Molesting a civilian girl in the street, not to mention what the crime should be, is very abhorrent in itself.

Such hidden dangers should be resolved as soon as possible.

not to mention……

The county magistrate glanced at Xie Zhan carefully. He did not know the identity of this person, but from just the traces of him, he could guess that Xie Zhan was not someone he could afford to offend.

Fortunately, Xie Zhan didn't ask him to do anything excessive. He was just handling a public case that was within the scope of his responsibilities.

Zhang Da and others were quickly brought to the front of the hall.

"Little girl, could it be that these people destroyed your stall?"

After all, being teased was not a good thing, and the county magistrate was kind enough not to say it clearly.

Mingxiu turned away and said, "It is indeed these people. Please ask the county magistrate to make the decision for the daughter of the people."

She knelt down and kowtowed to the county magistrate.

Originally, Mingxiu didn't like this kind of etiquette, but now she doesn't like it and there's nothing she can do about it.

A real man can bend and stretch, but what she wants is nothing more than a truth.

"Ming is suing you for molesting women, extorting money, and damaging other people's property. Do you accept these crimes?"

Zhang San, the little boss who was called the boss by the gangsters, didn't expect Mingxiu to be so aggressive. He directly reported him to the government office and even bluntly accused him of molesting her?

But it was not just once or twice that he was brought to the Yamen. He did not panic, but said to the county magistrate: "Sir, this villain is unjust. I just saw that this sister had a good life and just talked to her.

, since you’re open for business, you can’t even talk to people, right?”

His face was full of grievance, and he stood very close to Mingxiu. He whispered within earshot of the two of them: "Since you have become a female cousin, don't set up any chastity memorial. Those who show themselves in public really think that they are rich men."

Miss?"

Mingxiu's face changed, and she repeated his words loudly, looking at the county magistrate with tears in her eyes, "Sir, this person dares to humiliate a daughter of the people like this in court. It shows that what the woman of the people just said is true!"

"You talk dirty words in court, Zhang San, you are so brave!"

The county magistrate knew that these people were ruthless people, but he did not expect that these people were so courageous. He was still sitting in front of the hall in official uniform, and he dared to humiliate the defendant in this way.

This made the county magistrate feel that he was looked down upon by these gangsters, and that they did not take his official authority into consideration at all.

How is this possible?!

He completely lost his patience with these people and asked the yamen to go to the place Mingxiu mentioned to collect evidence.

After the people returned, the county magistrate was able to conclude that these people were guilty and that there was no false accusation against Mingxiu.

The matter was clear, and Zhang San and others did not take him seriously in court, so the county magistrate gave the verdict on the spot.

"Zhang Sanyi and others are sentenced to seven days in prison and must compensate the Ming family for all losses. If they fail to do so...the penalty will be increased to one level!"

This third-class person is not afraid of being imprisoned. How many times a year do they not go there?

But if they want compensation, it will cost their lives!

However, the county magistrate only makes a judgment. It is not they who have the final say whether to pay or not to pay in the end.

After they are released from prison in seven days, they will go find Mingxiu for revenge.

Even if they didn't give any money at that time, Mingxiu wouldn't dare to say anything.

But Mingxiu didn't want them to suspend the execution, "Sir, the daughter's family all makes a living in this industry. There was a fire at home the day before yesterday. Today, they are waiting to sell the fruits and sell the money to buy tiles to repair the house. Please have mercy, sir, and let Zhang San

When others give their money, they will compensate us now."

The case has been decided, and the county magistrate doesn't mind giving Mingxiu a favor.

Even if it is to let those behind Xie Zhan remember his kindness, it is not a loss.

"I'm sure." The county magistrate nodded and looked at Zhang San and others, "Are you going to take the money on the spot, or do you want me to send a yamen servant to go home with you to get it?"

Zhang San was ready to cheat again, but the county magistrate was not afraid, "Is the board ready?"

If they cheat again, they will not only have to pay compensation, but they will also be punished.

Being locked up in a cell for seven days is not a big deal at first, but if you are locked up in a cell with an injury, it will be a big problem.

Most of the yamen servants in the county yamen are hateful people. They have incurred the hatred of the yamen servants by teasing women. They must be extremely cruel. There will be no medical treatment or medicine in the prison, and even if they are strong, they will still be in trouble.
