Song Chi was a little confused. "I'm the top case in the county, not the plague god. Why did I hide so far away after hearing him introduce himself?" And his eyes were so strange.

"What do you mean?" Song Chi asked in confusion, "Why are you all avoiding me?"

"So it was Kuangshi Song. It was us who were blind to recognize him before."

The lawyer who had previously scolded Song Chi clasped his fists and was extremely respectful.

They really can't compare with this person. The incident in front of the Shen family has spread, and many people have seen it with their own eyes. It was under Song Chi's coercion that Han Yuanzheng finally knelt down.

They all thought that even if Song Chi won the bet by being the first in the county case, he would still "show mercy while he can." After all, kneeling was too humiliating.

It is said that even Marquis Changfeng gave in, but Song Chi refused to give in and forced Han Yuanzheng to kneel down.

When this news spread, everyone in Ning'an counties was excited.

This guy is really too arrogant. Although being the top judge in the county is a great achievement, it is nothing compared to the huge Han family. He seems to have no idea what fear is.

This made his reputation as a madman even worse.

The Han family will definitely retaliate, there is no doubt about that, it just depends on when and how they will do it.

To others, it's the plague.

"You can call me Song Anshou. Calling me a mad scholar doesn't sound good." Song Chi was a scholar. He felt that being the first in the list was more suitable for his status. He didn't expect that he would achieve the achievement earlier than Erlang and already had a nickname.

"A madman is more suitable for your identity."

Several people spoke respectfully, and although they were joking, their admiration was genuine.

"Then I'll take this case. Do you have any objections?" Song Chi was not polite. He also wanted to make money. This was a good opportunity.

"You are the top judge in the county and you are well-known. Why do you want to steal our jobs?" Some people were dissatisfied.

"I want to make money, too."

Song Chi clasped his fists and said, "Brothers, please give me some leniency. To be honest, even if you take over, this case will not be solved. It's not worth it to not make any money and offend people."

He persuaded them politely, saying that although these lawyers did not hold high positions, their influence was not small. They were squatting outside the county government office and knew everything that went on inside. They might be of use at any time.

Having already offended all the upper class people, if he doesn't have any mass support, he will have nowhere to stay.

Everyone looked surprised. They didn't expect that Song Kuangshi, who didn't even take the Han family seriously, would be so polite to them.

He was telling the truth. Even if he took the case, it would be difficult to succeed and he might even get into trouble.

"It's you."

Although Madam Su was a woman, she was also extremely happy. The county's top judge was her lawyer. If this still didn't work out, there would be nothing she could do.

Compared to ability, she values ​​Song Chi's relationship more. It is said that the first place in the county case was won by the new magistrate Feng, and having a teacher-student relationship is of great benefit to the lawsuit.

This widow Su is not a simple person either. Song Chi's eyes moved slightly, but then again, if she were an ordinary weak woman, she would not dare to fight with her husband's family for the family property.

This is a woman with independent thinking, no, a widow.

"This is not the place to discuss things. Come home with me and we'll talk in detail." Madam Su didn't want to show up in public, but what she said made it easier for people to think of Feifei.

"Let's go."

Madam Su walked towards the sedan chair parked not far away. Just as she was about to get on, she turned back and asked, "Is Mr. Song taking the sedan chair?"

"I'll just take the 11th."

"Eleventh Road?"

Song Chi said happily: "I can just walk." As the county's top judge, he was indeed a bit shabby.

In other time-travel novels, those who passed the county magistrate examination had yamen runners announce the good news, wealthy families gave them silver rewards, and the county magistrate hosted a banquet... He had nothing and was even despised by this rich woman.

"Then I'll have to trouble Case Master Song."

After Su Mingyue finished speaking, she got on the sedan chair. She had heard some things and knew that the county's top judge was not having an easy life. She followed the sedan chair across two streets and arrived in front of a house.

Song Chi recognized this place. It was called Yulin Street and was inhabited by wealthy families.

This is a courtyard with two entrances and exits. The courtyard is quiet. Madam Su led the way into the hall.

"Mr. Song, please take a seat."

As she spoke, she called a maid over to pour tea.

Song Chi looked at the furnishings of the house, which were simple yet had an air of luxury.

"Madam Su, this house is nice."

He picked up a topic at random.

"If I can win the lawsuit, it's mine...If I can't win, I'll be kicked out."

Madam Su responded and casually took off the mourning clothes she was wearing. She was wearing a white dress underneath, which highlighted her good figure.

This woman is indeed not an ordinary person. She probably has no feelings for her husband. She went to the county government office wearing mourning clothes to arouse others' sympathy.

"Chief Song, I don't know how to fight this lawsuit."

"Let me take a look at your original complaint."

There is a fixed procedure for filing a complaint in the county government. First, submit the complaint. After the government accepts it, you just have to wait for the summons. There are different ways to handle the case depending on the severity of the case.

Song Chi took the previous petition and read it carefully, then frowned.

"What's wrong?" Madam Su noticed the change in Song Chi's expression.

"There's something wrong with your petition."

Song Chi asked, "How much did the lawyer charge you?"

"One ounce of silver."

"You... really have so much money that you don't know where to spend it."

Song Chi was speechless. This money was so easy to make.

"You've been deceived. Look at what's written on this petition."

Madam Su came closer, and Song Chi smelled a faint fragrance emanating from her.

"You wrote about fighting for the family property with your husband's family. That's too straightforward... Since ancient times, it has been difficult for an honest official to judge family affairs. Let alone you fighting with the Sun family, even if you were fighting with any other family, the county magistrate wouldn't care about you."

Song Chi said it very bluntly. Things like this happen all the time in every household. The county government receives so many such cases every day that it simply cannot handle them all.

"Then how should I write it?" Madam Su didn't expect that the county's top judge really had this ability.

"Damn liar!" she cursed through gritted teeth.

"Then what should I do?" She was somewhat convinced by Song Chi.

"There's one thing you did wrong. You shouldn't have shown up in public from the beginning."

Song Chi asked, "Have you ever heard a saying?"

"What?"

"Starving to death is a small matter, losing one's virginity is a big matter."

Madam Su's expression changed slightly, and a hint of panic flashed in her eyes.

Although this fictional world is different, I think some things are still the same.

"You're already a widow, yet you're still out and about all day. Isn't that giving people something to talk about?"

Song Chi asked, "The Sun family is using this as an excuse to embarrass you, right?"

"yes."

Madam Su nodded and said, "They want to destroy my innocence."

"There's always trouble around a widow." Song Chi sighed.

"What happened to the widow?"

Madam Su said bluntly, "Just because I marry into the Sun family, does that mean I'll be a member of the Sun family in life and a ghost of the Sun family in death? I'm only 25 years old, and I have to remain a chaste widow. That's simply impossible!"

She seemed angry, and Song Chi could see that she was being treated unfairly.

He asked curiously, "How did your husband die?"
