"I have never seen a father talk about his daughter like that. I didn't know. I thought this was not your daughter! He is so wicked. No wonder the family is getting poorer as time goes by!" The villagers nearby scolded them with shameless expressions.
Then, after knowing that Lian's family had left Hexi Village far away, the onlookers dispersed.
After Lian's family left, the people in Hexi Village began to feel sorry for Lian Guanlang's life. They thought that after all the hard work, they would have a good life after marrying a daughter-in-law. As a result, the daughter-in-law was imprisoned. When Lian's family came to make trouble,
Lian Guanlang's life has gone back to the time when he first came to Hexi Village and he was as poor as he was. It is estimated that even if the Lu family sister comes out, she will not like him anymore.
At this time, the county government office welcomed a giant Buddha.
"I'm here to see you, Lord Magistrate!"
When the yamen servant outside reported that the magistrate had come to the county yamen, the county magistrate and Mr. Li, who was drinking tea, almost fell off the table.
"Master Li, please get up." The magistrate was dressed in casual clothes and his face was dusty. Behind him, Jiang Rong and Lian Guan Langna could be described as gray-haired, which is enough to know the hardships these people have endured on their journey these past few days.
Seeing Mr. Lian Guanlang behind the magistrate, his heart skipped a beat and almost seemed to stop.
This prefect was the number one scholar a few years ago, and is now favored by the emperor. The people above are all coveting this young prefect. Everyone knows that after this prefect reaches his term of office, he will definitely rise in the ranks, and what will be his future?
It can be said to be bright.
"Master Li, you should know this little brother Guan Lang behind me, right? Speaking of which, he is also from your county, from Nanwang Town." Magistrate Du was dressed in purple brocade clothes, with his hands behind his back. Due to his height, he was a little
He looked at the county magistrate condescendingly.
"Yes...yes." The county magistrate replied hesitantly, sweating nervously.
"This Lian Guanlang and Jiang Rong are my saviors. Back then, when I was going from Beijing to the state capital to take office, I was attacked by bandits on the way and almost died in Chang Qingshan. It was they who stood up and saved me regardless of their own comfort.
The whole family." Magistrate Du paused before bringing the topic to the main topic, "A few days ago, two people came to my Lord and said that there was an unjust case and they wanted me to uphold justice. Lord Li, you know what the unjust case I was talking about was.
A case?”
"I don't know, this official is accustomed to handling cases impartially and never wronging anyone." Mr. Li's forehead was already covered with fine sweat, and he was secretly wiping his forehead with the sleeve of his official robe in one hand.
"About Dr. Lu's case, I heard about it as soon as I entered the county. This case really caused a storm in the county. Even the sixty doctors in the county came together to defend Dr. Lu. Mr. Li, you
Such a person handles the matter impartially. Today, I will personally interrogate all the prisoners. I want to see how Master Li handles the matter impartially!" Magistrate Du slammed the table and stood up, glared at the county magistrate, got up and walked into the hall.
At that time, it was decreed that officials who were promoted to court must wear official robes to show their strictness in the court. Magistrate Du entered the back hall, and his entourage followed him in with his official robes.
In the county jail, the yamen officer looked a little excited. Behind him were Jiang Rong and Lian Guanlang who had just returned from the state capital.
"Hey, I didn't expect you to be the magistrate's savior. It seems that Dr. Lu is really saved this time!" The yamen servants don't care about the outcome of the county magistrate. As official servants, they always have to do things that go against their conscience.
Life was also uncomfortable.
When the yamen officer opened the door of the county jail, Lian Guanlang quickly bent down and ran in, hugging the somewhat surprised Lu Ziwan.
"Daughter-in-law, I'm back! Brother Jiang Rong and I have brought the prefect here. Wife-in-law, you will be cleared of your charges soon, and we can go home soon!"
"Brother Guan Lang, am I not dreaming? Brother Jiang Rong, how are you? Why are you back so soon?" Lu Ziyuan was really shocked. Even Guan Lang had only been away for two days and it was only early in the morning.
He's back, and he's back with the prefect!
Lu Ziyuan is happy, she doesn’t have to be a fugitive, and she doesn’t have to lead a homeless life with her whole family. This is the best thing!
