The secret guard informed Xi Yu of the relevant situations found during the interrogation. Xi Yu's face became more and more gloomy, and there seemed to be anger burning in his eyes.

"Ma Pingchang, you evil man is simply unbearable!" Xi Yu scolded angrily, his voice echoing in the inn like thunder.

The secret guard suddenly kicked Ma Pingchang's knee bend and shouted loudly.

"Don't kneel down yet!"

Ma Pingchang knelt on the ground with a "thump". A trace of fear and confusion flashed in his eyes. He looked up and asked, "Who are you... who are you?"

Xi Yu snorted coldly and took out a token from his arms, which shone with a majestic light.

"I am the Prime Minister. You treacherous and slandered person, you have committed such a sin and still want to escape?"

When Ma Pingchang heard the word "Prime Minister", he was so scared that his face looked like earth, his whole body trembled, and he kowtowed repeatedly.

"Prime Minister, please spare me, please spare me!" The waiter beside him was so shocked that he couldn't stop. He never expected that the guest in front of him was the prime minister. He hurriedly knelt down again, not daring to raise his head.

There was a dead silence in the inn, with only the sound of Ma Pingchang kowtowing and begging for mercy.

Xi Yu looked like a torch, staring at Ma Pingchang, and asked in a majestic tone: "Hmph, do you collude with the county magistrate who was in charge of the Sun Qiushui case back then?"

Ma Pingchang shivered, knowing that he could no longer hide it at this time, so he nodded quickly.

"There is...this matter. In order to ensure that I could successfully frame Sun Qiushui and went to jail, I gave the county magistrate a lot of gold, silver and treasures. After he collected the money, he convicted Sun Qiushui as I wanted."

Xi Yu frowned, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Explain the specific details of your bribery."

Ma Pingchang did not dare to disobey and mentioned the time, place, amount and other matters of the bribery.

Xi Yu asked again: "Is that county magistrate still in office now?" Ma Pingchang replied: "He is in office, sir."

Xi Yu thought for a moment and immediately ordered.

"The secret guard, keep Ma Pingchang under strict supervision in this store, and there must be no mistakes. I will go to the county magistrate to see if he dares to explain truthfully."

After saying that, he shook his sleeves and left the inn with a sense of majesty.

When the secret guards got the order, they immediately wanted to take Ma Pingchang away.

The waiter was trembling with fear and did not dare to leave. The entire inn was shrouded in a tense atmosphere.

Ma Pingchang looked at Xi Yu's figure that was about to leave, his face was full of horror, and his body trembled involuntarily.

He shouted, "Sir, then...what will I be punished? Do you want to be beheaded?"

Xi Yu stopped, turned his body sideways, and glanced at him coldly.

"Hmph, are you scared now? Wait here first, and wait until I have seen the county magistrate come back before deciding what to do with you."

After saying that, he ignored Ma Pingchang and walked out of the inn with great strides.

Ma Pingchang collapsed to the ground, his face as if dead, and kept muttering: "It's over, it's over..."

His eyes were full of despair, and the waiter was trembling, hoping that the storm would subside as soon as possible and not affect him.

In the small courtyard of Sun Qiushui's house, Sun Qiushui and Mrs. Mingyue's sisters were sitting at the stone table, talking about interesting things in recent days, trying to forget the pain they had before.

At this time, a villager rushed over with a little worry on his face.

"Mingyue, Miss Qiushui, I just heard something, saying that the Prime Minister came here. Do you think this Prime Minister is a fake?"

The villagers frowned, their eyes full of doubts, "Before, in a village, a woman spread the word that she had acquainted with the prime minister. Later, she found out that the prime minister was pretending to be a big joke and caused a lot of trouble."

Mrs. Mingyue frowned slightly, then smiled, looked at the villagers and said, "Thank you for telling me, but don't worry, this prime minister is true and there will be no mistake."

After hearing this, the villagers were still a little confused, but seeing that Mrs. Mingyue was so sure, she couldn't say anything else, so she said goodbye and left.

Soon, Xi Yu came to the county government with a majesty.

At the front of the county yamen, two yamen runners were leaning against the wall chatting, and sometimes laughing, and they looked completely less serious than those who were on duty.

Xi Yu frowned, a hint of anger flashed in his eyes, and he was extremely dissatisfied with this act of neglecting duties, but he still held it back and did not attack on the spot.

He stepped forward, his voice low and powerful: "I want to see the county magistrate."

The two yamen runners stopped chatting and looked at Xi Yu up and down. Seeing that he was dressed in extraordinary clothes but didn't know him, one of the yamen runners asked lazily: "Who are you? What's the matter with the county magistrate?"

"Don't worry about me."

"It's outrageous. What are you? If you want to meet the county magistrate, you have to beat the drum and make trouble. Otherwise, how could you see it?"

Xi Yu had an impulse to tell him his identity.

Suddenly, I felt that it was not time yet, so I said, "Okay, since that's the case, I will meet him in this way."

So he went toward the big drum on one side.

Xi Yu finally beat the drum.

The county magistrate asked the concubine to pinch her shoulders in the backyard. When he heard the sound, he felt very angry.

"It's really a disappointment. Who is so ignorant?" County Magistrate Han Chong said viciously.

The concubine also looked reluctant and had to let go.

Han Chonghuo hurriedly entered the county government and stretched his waist.

I didn’t sleep well last night, and someone beats the drum today. It’s so outrageous!

And Xi Yu entered quickly.

Han Chong patted the Neimu and asked him who he was, and then asked why Xi Yu didn't kneel down?

"It doesn't matter who I am. If I kneel down, you can't afford it." Xi Yu sneered.

"A bold madman, it's damn, you're so damn. Do you believe this county will make you have a slap in your butt?"

Han Chong was really angry, and no one had ever treated him like this!

"I said, you can't afford it. You'd better not ask me what my identity is, or it's important to be a serious matter."

Han Chong wanted to say something, but when he saw Xi Yu's sharp gaze, he was a little scared.

He secretly guessed, what is this person's identity? Is he a big shot?
