The Fujia family had already left Gejia Village. Of course, they knew everything about what happened back then. They were able to tell the story of the incident from a third party's point of view in a relatively objective manner.
Not only was the village chief sweating on his head, but the county magistrate was also sweating. His chair seemed to have nails on it, and he was moving around so hard that he couldn't sit still. He never thought at the time that the right and wrong in the village would change over the past few years.
Later, it turned into a riot.
The people of Ge Village who were listening outside realized that the village chief could no longer hold the position. Some villagers who had objections to him also shouted and complained about the village chief's fault, which was really overwhelming.
Hyun didn't stop them, he held his head and waited until they had nothing to say anymore and calmed down, then he said to the county magistrate:
"Sir, how do you think this should be judged?"
The county magistrate pulled up his sleeves and quickly wiped the sweat from his face:
"The village chief can no longer hold office," Kan Hyun nodded and continued, "The Yan family also made mistakes, but it's not the main one. In addition, his daughter is also dead, so forget it."
Hyun continued to nod, and the magistrate once again pulled up his sleeves to wipe his sweat:
"Niu family, please give Mother Niu a job. Let her work in the county government."
Hyun still held his head and looked at him without saying anything. The county magistrate was pounding in his heart, unable to guess what this man was thinking.
The curtain man reacted quickly and said to Hyun:
"Mother Niu is old and can't do heavy work. She can find a job that she can do. She doesn't have to work in the county government and has no freedom."
Hyun nodded with satisfaction.
In the final analysis, this matter was caused by Father Niu's temper. If Father Niu had known how to adapt, he would not be in this situation today.
Letting Niu's mother be in the county government is equivalent to Kun Yuguo supporting their family. He has to pay for his own mistakes. Even the country has no obligation to pay for personal mistakes.
As an official, what we can do is seek justice for them and ensure that their rights are protected.
The county magistrate breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Xuan agreed to the proposal.
As for the village chief.
Ancient villages were basically a family, and the village chief was actually similar to the clan chief.
There are still a few people of the same generation as the village chief in the village. The villagers have long been dissatisfied with the selfishness and arrogance of the village chief's group. They just took advantage of this incident to overthrow the village chief and re-elect a highly respected person.
, and the village chief, Xuan, wants to take him to Qinzhou.
The Yan family was about to go back to the village. Hyun looked at the little girl who had been staring at her. Even if she was pulled away by an adult, she still looked at Hyun.
Hyun suddenly said:
"People from the Yan family, wait a minute."
Everyone who was about to leave stopped one after another and looked at the person sitting in the main seat, who was sitting in a very unattractive manner.
Father Yan asked with a trembling voice:
"Master Zhuo Zhuo, what else is there?"
Hyun pointed at the little girl:
"I want this little girl."
There was silence in the hall for a moment, as if the air had solidified. The county magistrate and others were thinking, how old is this little girl? Even if she wants to marry, she will have to be raised for more than ten years; what the Yan family is thinking is: happiness comes too quickly, we should
Shouldn't I ask Mr. Zhuo for money? But even if there is no money, when this girl grows up, will she be in need of us?
Lai Hou quietly handed over a bag from behind the screen. The county magistrate looked at the six people behind the screen in confusion, wondering why they didn't come out and were hiding behind like thieves.
Hyun took the bag, which contained five taels of gold ingots, and thought about it in his hand:
"I'll exchange this pocket for that little girl. I have a condition. Whether she recognizes you or not, and how she treats you is up to her. You can't force her."
Hyun hates moral kidnapping the most, so what if it's a relative? Some relatives are just names, and they are not as cordial as others who are not related by blood.
The little girl was very surprised at first. After hearing Hyun's conditions, she lowered her head, not looking at Hyun or the Yan family, and quietly waited for her verdict. A child of four or five years old has such a mind, which makes
People feel sad.
Yan's mother didn't want to change it, but that bag of money was enough for the family to last a lifetime, or even several lifetimes. She held the little girl's hand and didn't know how to make a choice.
The sons and daughter-in-law were unwilling to change. With that bag of money, they would not have to worry about it in their lives. However, they were outside and they still had to maintain some face. They looked at Father Yan eagerly.
.
Father Yan looked at the money bag that clattered in Hyun's hand, and then at the little girl who lowered her head and remained silent. Finally, he sighed heavily, stamped his foot, snatched the little girl with his hands, and pulled her in front of Hyun.
He reached out to grab the money bag, but he took it back and said to the county magistrate's servant:
"Sir, please write a note."
The curtain man nodded very smartly, and quickly wrote two pieces of paper. The conditions proposed by Hyun, how much money was given, the year, month, day, and hour were all clearly written down. Both Hyun and Father Yan pressed their fingerprints.
The county magistrate also stamped it, handed one copy to Father Yan, and pocketed the other.
After everything was done, Hyun handed the money bag to Father Yan. Father Yan quickly took the money, kicked it in his arms, held it tightly, and took the Yan family with him without even looking at the little girl.
gone.
The man behind the scenes sighed slightly and said to himself:
"Having money is not necessarily a good thing."
He turned to look at Hyun who was walking behind with the child in his arms:
Could Master Zhuo be deliberately trying to rectify the Yan family? Speaking of which, the Yan family is quite cold-blooded. Could it be...
He quickly shook his head:
Don't think about it, this little girl is actually enjoying herself.
Hyun carried the little girl to his room. The girl was very close to Hyun. She put her arms around Hyun's neck and rested her head on her shoulders. For those who didn't know, she thought she was Master Zhuo's daughter.
When they got to the room, Hyun washed her and asked:
"May I have your name?"
The little girl raised her head and glanced at Xun, then lowered her head and said:
"They all call me Niu."
Hyun chuckled:
"Niu is not a name, any girl can be called Niu."
Niu said oh.
Hyun thought for a while and said:
"Let's call you Tuan Tuan first, Tuan Tuan. When we get back, let a powerful person give you a good name."
Tuantuan raised his head and gave Hyun a silly smile.
After washing, Hyun put her in clean clothes. Tuan Tuan happily touched this and that, and looked at the beautiful new cloth shoes on her feet. She couldn't bear to use them for walking, so she kept huddled in the chair, patting the cloth shoes from time to time, for fear of being afraid.
Get dirty.
Hyun smiled and hugged her:
"Tomorrow we will go to Qinzhou first. After the matter is settled, we will return to the capital."
When they heard that they were going back to the capital, they were stunned for a moment:
"Is the capital far away?"
Hyun nodded:
"It's quite far. It takes more than ten days to walk. With you here, we can walk slower."
Wringing her fingers, she hesitated to speak.
Hyun put her in the chair and squatted in front of her:
"If Tuantuan has anything to say, just say it, don't be afraid."
Tuantuan looked at Hyun and timidly said:
"I, I want to take my mother away with me. When I leave, my mother will be alone."
Although Hyun didn't see it with her own eyes, crying at the grave, she could still imagine it.
A child has lost her mother since she was a child and was abandoned by her father. When she returns to her grandma's house, she still has to face the cold words from her uncle and aunts. That lonely grave is her only spiritual support.
Hyun touched Tuantuan’s head:
"No problem, let's go back to the capital first, you can choose a place you like, and then we can pick up my mother, okay?"
Tuantuan nodded happily.
The next day, a group of people set out. The village chief was sitting in the prison car and was no longer in the village. His nostrils were looking at the sky, huddled up.
On the way, Tuantuan always clung to Hyun, for fear of losing her, so Hyun had no choice but to take her in the carriage. Even if Tuantuan slept, he would hold on to Hyun. Hyun looked at those small, but rough-skinned hands, holding back tears.
It couldn't help but rush into my eyes.
It wasn't until Xunyi walked into the state capital with Tuantuan in his arms that Governor Peng knew that Master Zhuo had jumped out to handle the case. He looked at Yang Yanyang reproachfully and asked with eyes:
Didn’t you say that Mr. Zhuo went on a tour?
Yang Yanyang smiled, stroked his beard, and stepped forward to greet him.
Fugui in the prison was awakened by a burst of noise and saw another person being escorted in, but:
Why does it look familiar?
He stood up, rubbed his eyes, and looked carefully. When he saw clearly that it was the village chief, he was stunned for a long time. It was not until the village chief was put in the cell that Fugui came back to his senses.
Laughing loudly:
"Retribution! Retribution!"
Now when I think about what Hyun said, I have a different experience, and I give Mr. Zhuo a thumbs up in my heart.
According to the village chief's law, he has to spend some time in jail.
Before preparing to leave, Hyun first asked Ding Wangcai to go back and bring a message to Huami and Hua Sao, and Tuantuan would be raised by them for the time being.
Hyun didn't want to take her to the palace right away, because he was afraid that she would have low self-esteem, or a desire to compare, or that she would switch from shotgun to cannon and feel that God is the boss and I am the second child. Let her establish a correct outlook on life and values first.
, let her integrate into their circle a little bit more.
After returning to the capital, he handed the tuan tuan to Huami and Hua Sao, and then returned to the palace with Yang Yanyang and others.
After telling Ning Yan and the others the whole story, Xun asked:
"The Emperor thinks, how should we deal with these people?"
Ning Yan asked everyone:
"How do you think this should be handled appropriately?"
Everyone is in a dilemma. Fugui can be killed, but what should Yang Nai do? After all, he kills him under the title of "Yang Nandi's descendant", which may lead to the situation after Liu Yao killed Chief Badi.
Zhan, what if everyone imitates him in the future?
Now everyone has also given birth to: "What is the most difficult in this world, the dilemma is the most difficult, the dilemma is the most difficult."
Yang Yanyang looked at everyone, stood up and said:
"Your Majesty, I think this mob should be pardoned."
There were gasps of air in the hall.
Ning Yan asked incredulously:
"Why?"
"Let's talk about Fugui first. He saw the darkness in the officialdom and became rebellious. After all, he is also a good official who serves the country and the people. If we kill such a person, who will dare to speak out for injustice in the future?
Moreover, it is also a loss for Kun Yuguo."
Ning Yan thought for a while and then said:
"continue."
Yang Yanyang responded and continued:
"That Yang Nai cannot be killed anymore. Although he admitted in the end that what he said was fake, there are too few people who know. So what if they know more? If you think of those who rebel, you can use this as an excuse. So,
Yang Nai must not be killed."
Ning Yan said:
"Master Yang Tongue is right. Even if Yang Nai is spared, Fugui is spared. If someone follows suit in the future, wouldn't everything be in chaos?"
Yang Yanyang bowed and said:
"What the emperor is worried about is, so when pardoning, you must explain clearly why you are pardoning wealth and wealth, and I have to add that this is the first and last one. If anyone discovers injustice and does not want to resolve it through formal channels, If you rebel again, you will be killed without mercy." (To be continued)
