Peng Yiyu heard the voice and turned around with a frown. When she saw the man in white, her brows suddenly widened.
The corners of her lips raised slightly: "Shaobai, you didn't say you'd arrive only tomorrow, why is it one day early?"
The man called Shaobai smiled fondly: "Today is Jindu City's Hundred Flowers Festival. I came early. Wouldn't it be nice if I could still celebrate the festival with you?"
"I accept this reason." Peng Yiyu nodded to express his understanding, and then pulled Lin Zhongchun out of the crowd and came to Shaobai.
She introduced: "This is your cousin Shaobai, who is also my younger brother. You have met him before, but judging from your appearance, you should have no impression of him, but it doesn't matter. In the future, you will gradually get to know each other better."
Becoming familiar."
You will definitely become familiar with it...
When Lin Zhongchun was talking with her cousin and the man in front of her, she remembered some things about this man, and also knew that he and she were in a marriage relationship, but she still hoped to avoid it if she could get along with him in the future.
After all, she traveled to this era not to marry someone else and have children, but to pursue a career.
She didn't want to let her whole life be tied to a man, and then be trapped in the backyard, ending her life doing nothing.
Lin Zhongchun smiled politely at Peng Shaobai: "Of course I have an impression of cousin Shaobai, but I haven't seen him for so long that I don't recognize him. But cousin Shaobai is getting more and more handsome. Speaking of which, I haven't asked yet.
Cousin, what do you mean when you come to Jindu City this time? You have been in Yancheng before, and now you are here in Jindu City. Do you have something important to do with you?!"
Peng Shaobai's eyes were always fixed on Lin Zhongchun: "What did my cousin say? Couldn't we come here to play with you just because you are here?"
"Not really, I'm just curious." Lin Zhongchun didn't believe that he came here just to play with him.
People who had been stationed on the border of the Dajing Dynasty suddenly came to live in a city close to the imperial city of the Dajing Dynasty. They must have had a purpose.
Peng Yiyu rolled his eyes: "If she asks you, you answer. These days, I have long wanted to tell my cousin why you came here, but I think it might be better if you tell her personally."
Speaking of this, she patted her brother: "So, do you want to say it yourself, or should I tell her?"
Peng Shaobai smiled bitterly. He thought his biological sister had told Zhong Chun the matter long ago, but he didn't expect that she hadn't said it yet.
Since my sister had left the matter unspoken until now, it would definitely be more effective if he told Zhongchun in person at this moment.
He said: "I will often be active in Jindu City in the future. The Holy Emperor ordered me to take over Jindu City. Now I am the county magistrate of Jindu City."
Peng Shaobai is actually the newly appointed county magistrate!
Lin Zhongchun was very surprised.
She knew that her cousin might have some relationship with the new county magistrate, but she didn't expect that her cousin himself was the new county magistrate.
In this case, will she still be able to come into contact with the cases in the yamen in the next activities?
If she wants to continue to fulfill her dream, she must avoid contact with Peng Shaobai.
In the legal system of the Jing Dynasty, a system of avoidance of litigation activities was stipulated. There are three types of avoidance systems, namely avoidance of relatives, avoidance of geographical areas, and avoidance of official positions.
Lin Zhongchun and Peng Shaobai are cousins and fall into the category of relative avoidance.
There are three reasons for recusal. The first is to ensure the fairness of the proceedings; the second is to prevent the judge's thoughts from being swayed; and the third is to ensure that the judge's prestige is not questioned by the people.
In general, the purpose of the avoidance system is to prevent officials from adversely affecting trial activities due to factors such as personal interests or relationships between relatives.
Peng Shaobai saw Lin Zhongchun stunned, and the smile on his face disappeared.
He said: "Why is Xiaochun unhappy?"
He secretly said that he and his cousin hadn't seen each other for too long, which made her feel alienated from him.
Just assume she is afraid of life.
Lin Zhongchun didn't hide it either: "I am now studying at the First Branch of Huating Academy and I am a trainee lawyer. My cousin is now the magistrate of Jinducheng. Can I still go to court to argue with others?"
Peng Shaobai paused, he had not thought about this problem.
He and Peng Yiyu looked at each other, then looked at Lin Zhongchun: "It's because I didn't think well."
He was invited to Jindu City by the Holy Emperor's order, just because he wanted to spend more time with his cousin, get along well and develop a relationship.
Now, he came at the wrong time.
The atmosphere suddenly fell silent. Even though there were a lot of people around, it could not alleviate the awkward atmosphere between the three of them.
Peng Yiyu moved her mouth, tried several times, and finally said what she was planning: "I suddenly want to continue watching how they celebrate the Hundred Flowers Festival. Little cousin, please stay with me to watch it for a while."
"Okay." Lin Zhongchun didn't know that she didn't want everyone to continue to be frozen here.
To a certain extent, the restriction of avoidance is to ensure that the authority of the official uniform is not questioned. She understands it, but she feels unwilling to do so.
She was still thinking about staying here during this vacation, but now it seems that she has to move to another place to complete her internship tasks.
Peng Yiyu turned his head to secretly observe her expression. When he saw that her eyes were fixed on one spot, he turned around and winked at his brother, then shook his head.
Peng Shaobai was helpless, he really did something bad this time with good intentions.
At a table behind them that was obscured by the crowd, a man wearing a Huating Academy student uniform heard all their conversations. He thought that staying in Jindu City might change this time.
He still needs to thank this cousin.
The corners of his mouth slowly raised, he raised his glass and toasted in Peng Shaobai's direction.
Now that Shaobai's cousin has come to Jindu City, Lin Zhongchun doesn't need to worry about his cousin's residence.
After watching the competition at the Hundred Flowers Festival, Lin Zhongchun was sitting in the courtyard of his college, looking up at the bright moon.
"Crunch——"
The courtyard door suddenly pushed open. Lin Zhongchun looked over subconsciously and found that it was Qi Xiaoyue.
Qi Xiaoyue was stunned for a moment, and she pointed to the door: "I knocked on the door just now and there was no response. I thought you were not here so I came in on my own. But you were here, why didn't you say anything?"
With the door ajar, she sat familiarly on the stone bench next to Lin Zhongchun and said, "I heard from Sun Zhaozhou that you plan to take on a case that requires a second appeal. Have you figured it out?"
"I refused." Lin Zhongchun picked up the cup and drank the tea, "Xiaoyue, what do you think about our internship changing to another place?"
She thought, but she couldn't make up her mind.
She was worried that everyone would blame her for asking them to leave Jindu City because her cousin was the county magistrate.
"Of course that's good." Qi Xiaoyue imitated her and looked up at the bright moon in the sky.
Today is not the fifteenth day, but the moon is very bright, big and round.
