Ting An looked at the direction Hua Rujin was leaving with a question mark on her face: "Sir, Miss Hua is really too arrogant. No one else can grab such an opportunity, yet she still wants to consider it."
Ting An curled his lips in annoyance, and added: "Miss Shiyin and the young master have known each other for many years, and the young master has never taken care of her like this. Miss Hua seems to be a little ignorant of praise."
Ye Chengguan remained silent and did not answer.
Although I have realized that what this girl said just now indicates that she is trying to win over others and that Xizhen is looking for a job, this is undoubtedly the approach of a smart person.
In this way, you will not be looked down upon by others.
As for He Shiyin, he knew it very well.
This person is no longer the pure-hearted woman she knew back then.
Several cases that have been investigated recently are inseparable from the instigation of unscrupulous litigators.
Officials and those litigators who litigate for others are in love with each other. He cannot defeat all the litigants in one fell swoop, but he also absolutely cannot tolerate some people continuing to show off their tricks and confuse right and wrong under his nose.
Thinking about the affairs of the entire Jiang'an County that he would have to deal with next, he began to worry that there would be unscrupulous litigants who would deliberately instigate litigation in order to make money.
This will only increase the burden on government agencies at all levels.
Thinking of this, Ye Chengguan stood up and ordered the boy:
"In the past few days, arrange more people to go to various places in the city to find out the details of all the lawyers in Jiang'an County. All the complaints written by them must be strictly controlled by the concierge and clerks, whether they are the lawyers or the county attorneys.
All petty officials who serve in the government must be carefully scrutinized, and any fraud will be severely punished."
"Don't worry, sir, I will definitely take care of this matter."
Ting'an knew very well that the young master always hated those who instigated lawsuits, especially Gu Langxi and his like who confuse right and wrong for others.
He was most worried that the young master would be misled by these people and misjudge the case and regret it for the rest of his life, so he immediately left the posthouse in a hurry to arrange things.
Ye Chengguan returned to the room, spread out the defense maps of the northern states rolled up on the table, and gradually fell into deep thought.
In the inner hall of the south courtyard, Hua Rujin sat on a small round stool beside the coffee table, looking around the neatly arranged room, and unconsciously thought of Ye Chengwei in her mind.
It can be said that this person can indeed be regarded as a dragon or a phoenix among men. He was ranked first in the imperial examination before he was even ranked first. He is also quite accomplished in martial arts and can be called a genius with both civil and military skills.
Why was such an outstanding person sent to Jiangling City to serve as a small county magistrate?
This is a question she has never thought through.
Previously, Hua Junnian, Cai Baiwei and his wife thought that he came back specifically for revenge, but now it seems that this is probably a misunderstanding.
The original owner didn't have much information about this person in his memory, only some incomplete impressions of him when he first met at the county government office when he was a child.
The rest is some information instilled by Meng Yutang's yin mother-in-law three years ago, saying that Ye Chengkuan was studying in the ancestral underworld and had no intention of doing scientific research, so that he lost his name and was expelled from the school. There was no news after that.
.
But after being in contact with him for a while, Hua Rujin didn't feel that Ye Chenggui had the slightest air of a playboy.
Moreover, she also heard her cousin Ruya mention that Ye Chengguan took the exam as a tribute student of the Imperial College.
Those who can enter the Imperial College are either outstanding in talent or academics, or they are rich or noble. In comparison, she is more willing to believe in the former.
After all, she probably knew something about the Ye family's family background. Ye Chengguan's father also worked in the county school together with the original owner's grandfather, and later died in the line of duty together. He did not have a prominent background.
It's not like he's hiding something to hide his identity.
Speaking of which, his mother was quite calm. She was divorced from the Hua family and suffered great humiliation. She neither excused nor made a fuss about her son. She just made a detour to the Hua family in Liangcun with gongs and drums when Ye Chengyu returned home from high school.
Go to the county to pick someone up.
In this way, the rumors will be self-defeating.
I think he is a powerful person.
But why did Hu Nanxi and Meng Yutang call her a bitch?
Could it be that Mother Ye really married her son?
"Hey, why should I study someone's family background when I have nothing to do?"
Hua Rujin secretly scolded herself, suddenly feeling that she was too nosy, and quickly put away these thoughts.
Recalling what Ye Chengkui had just said and the scene she saw in front of the county government office today, she also realized that there would be many cases going on.
"Ahem, here's your chance to make a fortune."
Hua Rujin's calm heart couldn't help but feel waves.
But then I thought about it, since Ye Chengkui was able to put aside his past suspicions and trust himself, naturally he couldn't deliberately create trouble for him.
This guy had just taken office, and he didn't have a master around him to make suggestions. If the matter could be solved outside the court, she would want to handle it for him outside the court.
Now that your career has just started, how much money you can earn is secondary. If you get the reputation of "instigating litigation", you may have to destroy your future with your own hands.
I made up my mind, ate some food sent by the inn, took a bath and rested early.
Early the next morning, as soon as Hua Rujin woke up from her dream, she heard a slight knock on the door.
She got dressed and opened the door to see, only to see Ting'an leading a female envoy from the post house waiting respectfully outside the door.
"Miss Hua, these are two changes of clothes that my young master has sent for you."
Ting'an motioned to the woman holding the tray behind him to come forward: "If Miss Hua has any cleaning work, this girl can do it."
"."
Hua Rujin was secretly shocked.
Before he agreed to stay, his young master had already arranged everything.
Isn’t this just trying to catch a duck?
"Thank you very much."
Hua Rujin responded politely.
After all, it is not his fault to litigate on behalf of others. Since Ye Chengguan has reached this point, there is no need for him to pretend to be reserved anymore.
Ting An smiled happily and waved to the female envoy hurriedly: "Hongye, hurry up and prepare some warm water for Miss Hua to bathe and change clothes."
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a rough noise of men quarreling in the courtyard outside.
"What happened?"
Hua Rujin asked hesitantly.
"Many people came to the post house today. They all heard about Miss Hua's reputation and rushed to the county government office in the hope that Miss Hua would judge the rights and wrongs in advance."
At this point, Ting'an showed a bitter look on his face: "No, two brothers have been involved in a huge lawsuit over the uneven distribution of the inheritance left by their father. In the past few years, the lawsuit has gone from the county to the government, and then to the government.
The fight went to the province, and now it's back to Jiang'an County. It is said that the lawsuit has not yet decided a winner, but the Wan Guan family's wealth has been consumed a lot."
After a pause, Ting An blinked his black eyes and said again: "Just before my son went out, he and Magistrate Wen tried to persuade the two brothers to reconcile, but these two brothers couldn't listen. They insisted on deciding the winner. The master and Wen
The prefect is busy going to meet the inspector, so he has no time to accompany them to cause trouble."
"Ahem, it's hard for an upright official to deal with household affairs, but it's made it difficult for the two adults."
Hua Rujin glanced at the female envoy Hongye and replied with a smile: "I'll go out with you for a look first."
Ting An looked suspicious: "Miss Hua, is there any way to persuade the two brothers to reconcile?"
"I'll give it a try." Hua Rujin strode out quickly, and Ting An had no choice but to follow her.
