Chapter 733 Even if we die, we will die together
Although he was afraid, County Magistrate Chen still slowly opened the account book. When he saw the contents clearly, he felt dizzy.
"Husband!"
Lin Xinxin hurriedly stepped forward to support County Magistrate Chen, her eyes full of worry.
"My Lord, this is fake, it's fake!"
County Magistrate Chen was unwilling to admit it and wanted to tear up the account book, but Jiang Wan reminded him quietly.
"Destroying evidence is a serious crime. As for evidence, there is plenty of it here!"
She pointed to the account books on the table and picked them up one by one, "This is the grain and silver you collected.
This one was given to you by someone else, and this one is a list."
"Hahaha."
Lin Jiaojiao suddenly laughed, she stared at Madam Lin and Lin Xinxin, "I thought you were so powerful.
That’s it. If you do something wrong, you have to accept the punishment.”
She knelt in front of Jiang Wan and said, "Princess, I suspect that it was Magistrate Chen who killed my father.
He wanted to kill people to silence them, but he didn't expect that even if my father didn't say anything, he would still be blamed."
County Magistrate Chen sat in the chair in a daze, no longer able to come up with any excuses.
Because he knew that no matter what he said, Jiang Wan could always produce evidence to convince him!
When the people outside heard the result, they were extremely excited.
"Your Majesty is worthy of being your Majesty. As soon as he arrived, he eradicated the cancer in our Qinniu Town!"
"I thought Mr. Lin was a kind man before, how could he suddenly change? It turns out that the county magistrate threatened him."
"His daughter married the county magistrate. What can he do if she doesn't obey?"
“…”
The sound of people's discussions reached Mrs. Lin's ears. She was slightly stunned and suddenly burst into tears.
Yes, if the master really didn’t care about Xinxin, why would he work for County Magistrate Chen?
After all, he still loved his daughter, just a little less than Lin Jiaojiao.
After learning the answer she wanted, Mrs. Lin looked up at Lin Xinxin reluctantly, then suddenly hit her head against the pillar and died.
She was so sudden that she scared everyone!
"Wanwan!"
Song Jiuyuan quickly covered Jiang Wan's eyes, fearing that she would be scared. Lin Xinxin and Lin Jiaojiao's pupils shrank slightly.
"mother!"
Lin Xinxin screamed and fainted, stimulated by Mrs. Lin's blood.
Lin Jiaojiao stared at her corpse blankly, and for a moment she couldn't even hate her anymore.
When a person dies, all grudges are gone.
"Wanwan, let me take care of this."
Song Jiuyuan was worried that Jiang Wan was too tired, so he lowered his voice and said, "Just write a memorial and hand it to the emperor.
These people will be taken directly to Kyoto, and the Emperor will deal with them."
After all, he was an official appointed by the imperial court, and Song Jiuyuan did not have the right to directly decide his life or death.
"It's okay. I'll wait for you."
Jiang Wan obediently watched Song Jiuyuan handle the matter. Mr. Lin was already dead, and all his property had to be confiscated.
As for Lin Jiaojiao, Lin Xinxin and County Magistrate Chen's family, the final outcome will depend on the emperor's decision.
If nothing unexpected happens, both families will definitely have their properties raided.
At this moment, Huang Jie was the only one guarding Lin Jiaojiao, and he wiped away her tears.
"Jiaojiao, I will always be with you. Even if we die, we will be together."
"You don't hate me?"
Lin Jiaojiao's eyes were filled with tears and she felt guilty, she said: "Huang Jie, I stole you.
Take the indenture and go, and live your life."
"Jiaojiao, if you hadn't saved me, there would be no Huang Jie in this world."
Huang Jie was very persistent. He wanted to share the hardships with Lin Jiaojiao. Jiang Wan couldn't help being a little surprised. She didn't expect that true friendship could be revealed in times of adversity.
Lin Jiaojiao shed tears of regret and complexity. Song Jiuyuan had already written the memorial and handed it to Song Yi.
"Have someone send them to Kyoto as fast as possible, and the same applies to the people themselves."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Song Yi agreed quickly, and Song Jiuyuan took Jiang Wan and quickly walked out of the government office. The people outside were very enthusiastic.
"Thank you, my Lord and Princess, for ridding the people of this evil!"
"Your Majesty is the great Lord of Heaven. May the princess live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years!"
“…”
Facing the grateful and happy expressions of the crowd, Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan smiled at each other, and she raised her hand gently.
"Everyone, stand up. If nothing unexpected happens, a new county magistrate will be appointed here soon. If you have any grievances, you can speak out."
Not only the county magistrate was brought down this time, but also the county chancellor and others. Anyone who was involved had no good outcome this time.
"Thank you, Princess. These are fruits grown in our home. Princess, please take them back and have a taste."
"And let the princess and the prince have some of the food we have."
"The prince has helped us, so it doesn't matter if we go hungry for one or two more meals."
“…”
Song Jiuyuan and Jiang Wan naturally would not accept it.
"Don't worry, the food they embezzled will be distributed to you. What is yours should be yours."
Jiang Wan immediately made the promise, and her words made the people happy again, and they immediately admired the two of them even more.
When Duan Si came out, he was very grateful to them and said to the people:
"The prince and princess need to go back and rest. Everyone please make way."
After his words, everyone made way for them. Song Jiuyuan helped Jiang Wan get on the carriage, and Duan Si acted as a temporary coachman.
On the way, Duan Si said loudly: "Prince, Princess, the people in our village are very grateful to you."
If they hadn't met them, perhaps they would have become robbers and bandits, and definitely not who they are now.
“This is what we should do.”
Song Jiuyuan raised his lips, "The one you should thank the most is Wanwan. If it weren't for her carefulness, maybe we wouldn't be here today."
"Yes, thank you Princess."
Duan Si breathed a sigh of relief, "The county magistrate is gone, Mr. Lin is gone, and no one will oppress us ordinary people like this anymore."
"You have to believe that not all officials are like this."
Jiang Wan reminded them, "If you encounter injustice in the future, don't be so impulsive.
At worst, you are not far from Kyoto, go to the Dali Temple and sue them!"
"I will teach you something!"
Duan Si scratched his head. They had little education and didn’t understand these things. They just wanted to survive.
The carriage arrived at Duanjia Village with a rumble. Song Jiuyuan and Jiang Wan got off the carriage and walked towards the house where they were temporarily living.
Before I even walked in, I heard a familiar voice, "Master Cheng, these are the wild vegetables I just picked.
Please don't refuse, or I will feel very uncomfortable."
"It's just a small thing, you don't have to be so polite."
Cheng Jin refused to accept it. Fuling folded her arms and looked at the scene coldly, exuding a low mood.
“Poria cocos.”
Jiang Wan reminded him, and Fuling turned to look at her, "Master Junior, you're back?"
There was a hint of joy in the ending of her voice; finally, it wouldn't be so eye-irritating anymore.
"What's going on?"
Jiang Wan lowered her voice, and Fuling curled her lips, "Your Junior Master, can you believe this, this is the sixth chapter today.
Duan Sanni sent some wild vegetables to Cheng Jin in the morning, but Cheng Jin confiscated them. Seeing that her yard was dilapidated, he helped repair it.
As a result, Sanni made wild vegetable cakes again, but Cheng Jin still didn't take them away. Seeing that her family had no firewood, he helped chop firewood.
After several trips back and forth, a lot of work was done, but Cheng Jin didn't ask for anything."
