Chapter 61 Zhang Gang's friend Bo
Ren Fang Lingchu looked at the people below and said: [Just say the key points, check him carefully, and there are others, don't waste time, I haven't asked the emperor for leave yet. ]
The system asked curiously: [Host, aren't you going to rest tomorrow? ]
Fang Lingchu didn't know! She wanted to ask the emperor for leave.
[I don't know! No wonder the prince and Gu Wangyan have time to play with me. ]
Everyone who heard her said: I didn't expect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to come.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always been kind, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely make the decision for them.
General Gu is also here, they are not afraid, they want to file a complaint and get their own justice.
The county magistrate below heard that the prince was coming, and just wanted to ask the prince to let him go.
He was held down by the people next to him and couldn't make a sound.
The system quickly looked for the county magistrate's melon and said: [This county magistrate is not a bad person. ]
After the system said this, it didn't continue.
People: What is this melon talking about, why is he helping the county magistrate. County
magistrate: Great, he is not a bad person.
After a while, he continued: [But he is not a bad person either. He has not done any big bad things, but he often helps the tyrants to rob or turn a blind eye to the people. ]
Fang Lingchu asked in confusion: [Doesn't his superiors care? ]
The system waved his little hand and said: [His grandfather is the Grand Tutor, his father is a top scholar, and his mother is a noble lady. Who dares to offend him, so everyone turns a blind eye. ]
Fang Lingchu couldn't help but complain: [No wonder the country fell apart as soon as the emperor fell! With such people who deceive their superiors and subordinates, how can the country not end? ]
People: Can you say such things?
Prince: It seems that Chuchu cares about this matter very much, and at the same time, I seem to be really incompetent in her heart.
Gu Wangyan: He will not let the emperor die.
County magistrate: What is she talking about? He is wronged, but he knew it but didn't report it. What bad things did he do?
Then he asked: [What did he do to help the tyrant?]
The system said: [For example, a husband beat his wife to death, and he said it was a family affair, so he let her go.
A landlord took a fancy to someone's child, so he snatched the child back, and then gave him a tael of silver. When the person reported to the police, he said that the landlord saw that their family had no money, so he took the girl home to help raise her.
There was also a restaurant that used bad meat to cook and sell to the people, and several people died from eating it, but he didn't care, saying that they died of poor health.
There are many such things, he likes to follow his feelings, he feels that those rich people don't need to wrongly accuse those ordinary people.]
After listening to the system, Fang Lingchu looked at the people on the ground with cold eyes.
The county magistrate did not realize his problem, he felt that he did nothing wrong.
For example, he looked down on the things of those low-class people. Besides, they are a couple, so what's wrong with the husband beating his wife.
Otherwise, why marry a wife, isn't it just to be able to vent when you are unhappy?
Although the man beat someone to death, he also said that he did it accidentally, not on purpose. He loved his wife very much and just did it when he was drunk.
Shouldn't he feel pity for him?
Then he said to the people watching the excitement outside: "If anyone has any grievances, please come out and speak now. You can also identify anyone."
If Fang Lingchu knew what the county magistrate was thinking, he would definitely go over and slap him a few times to let him know what it means to vent his anger.
Then a white-haired old man came crawling in.
"Princess, you are Princess Ding'an."
Fang Lingchu looked at the old man, asked someone to help him up, and then said, "Old man, please speak slowly. I am Ding'an. I'm sorry that it was because of my negligence that someone took advantage of me. If you have any grievances, just tell me. I will definitely make a decision for you."
The old man saw Fang Lingchu's outfit, and then looked at her guards and nanny. She was much more impressive than the fake princess.
Regardless of whether she was or not, at least she looked more powerful than that princess.
Suddenly, a young man came from behind and said to Fang Lingchu after paying his respects: "Princess, this is a man from Liujia Village. His granddaughter was taken away by Wang Yuanwai, who also occupied their land. Old Liu is now homeless. I heard that you can help him, so I went to call him."
Fang Lingchu looked at the young man and asked, "Who are you?"
The man replied respectfully: "Princess, I am Zhang Boren."
The system suddenly said excitedly: [Host, this person is Zhang Gang's good brother. His talent and learning are comparable to Zhang Gang. It's just that he was abducted and sold after something happened at home and became a slave. Although his master later returned his good pen, he did not have the opportunity to participate in the imperial examination, which is a pity. ]
Fang Lingchu didn't understand the laws of this country very well, and asked: [Why? ]
The system said: [The law stipulates that slaves cannot participate in the imperial examination. Even if the master returns the good pen, they have to wait for three generations before they can take the exam. ]
Fang Lingchu felt it was a pity to hear what the system said.
The system felt Fang Lingchu's pity for him and said: [Host, aren't you looking for someone to manage your fiefdom? I think he should be able to do it.
Fang Lingchu said helplessly: [Although the fiefdom can appoint officials on its own, it must be reported. It is not easy to operate for someone with a criminal record like him.]
The system said with some regret: [Then do you want to give up?]
[Of course not, but when the time comes, we will consider giving him a position that is suitable and can shut up those ministers]
Zhang Boren didn't expect that he would be favored by the princess just because he wanted to help old man Liu to redress his grievances.
But he didn't become arrogant because he heard Fang Lingchu's voice, but became more calm because he was affirmed.
If he had the opportunity to be used by the princess, he would be very happy, and if he didn't have the opportunity, he would help her.
She looked like a very good person, because she knew that something happened in her fiefdom, she came to deal with it immediately, and he also liked her style of doing things.
Zhang Boren stood there neither humble nor arrogant, his eyes full of admiration for Fang Lingchu.
The prince and Gu Wangyan felt very uncomfortable listening to Fang Lingchu's admiration and love for each other.
The two people frequently looked at the young man with their eyes.
The eyes of the two people were too sharp, and Zhang Boren couldn't ignore them even if he wanted to.
He just stopped looking at Fang Lingchu.
Fang Lingchu's brain communicated with the system, and his mouth still did what he should do.
"Old Liu, tell me about your grievances."
The old man Liu had gray hair, tattered clothes, and one of his eyes was damaged. He knelt down tremblingly and said, "Princess, please make a decision for me. I was originally a teacher in Liujia Village. There was only one son in the family. A few years ago, my son died, and my daughter-in-law followed him, leaving me and my granddaughter to depend on each other.
Later, I got old and my eyes were not clear, so I couldn't be a teacher anymore, but there was still land at home, which I worked hard to earn money to buy.
It is the only way for my granddaughter and I to make a living. Last year, our family had a good harvest, and the crops grown in the land were fragrant and sweet."
