"I am a woman?"
Chu Li narrowed his eyes dangerously, "Today, I am here to teach you a lesson, this woman you despise!"
Bang!
He threw the case file to the ground, grabbed the gavel on the table and banged it three times.
Bang bang bang!
The crisp sound echoed throughout the hall, and all the officers and soldiers turned their heads to look over.
"Listen to me, everyone."
She looked down:
"You have served Magistrate Li for many years. You know very well whether he has done anything clean or not. Now, the Regent has issued an order. He can no longer keep his official hat. This is a good opportunity for you to show your loyalty and build your career!"
The officers and soldiers straightened their faces and looked at each other subconsciously:
"Ms. Xie, what you mean is..."
"In recent days, the Regent has been punishing evildoers in Jiangnan City, and everyone in the city knows about it..."
"Miss Xie, are you asking us to report Lord Li?"
Li Zhifu said sternly:
"They are all my people, eating the salary I give them. You are my prefect, bribing my people, ha!"
Don't even consider your own weight!
Chu Li raised the gavel again:
"Whoever stands out first will be rewarded with 200 taels!"
Bang!
The one-eyed man strode forward, took out two large-denomination silver bills on the spot, and held them high.
An officer immediately knelt forward and said:
"Miss Xie, I want to report Magistrate Li! Two years ago, when Old Man Lin from Linjia Village couldn't pay taxes, he raped Old Man Lin's daughter!"
"This is real, you can immediately send someone to the hometown village to investigate!"
Li Zhifu was shocked and looked at the officer in anger:
"Wang Heng! You! How dare you..."
Betray him!
Wang Heng lowered his head.
I'm sorry, sir!
First, the Regent is still in Jiangnan, so Lord Li will definitely lose his official position.
Second, who can resist the temptation of two hundred taels of silver?
These small soldiers worked like slaves every day and only earned three or four taels of salary a month. These two hundred taels were enough for him to work for six years without eating or drinking.
Seeing the benefits, other officers and soldiers rushed out one after another:
"Miss Xie, I know that Lord Li is colluding with Mr. Zhang, a wealthy businessman from Jiangnan!"
"Miss Xie, when Jiangnan was repairing the water conservancy project five years ago, Lord Li embezzled at least tens of thousands of taels!"
"Thank you, Miss..."
Li Zhifu's eyes glared like goldfish, "You...you...are rebelling!"
He is the prefect!
He is the highest-ranking official in Jiangnan City!
Once a hole is opened in this kind of thing, it will be like a burst dam, and there is no way to stop it.
Chu Li raised his hand and pointed:
"you."
"Ah?" The lawyer next to him was almost trembling, "I didn't embezzle! I am innocent!"
"Gather all the evidence presented by these people and report it to the county governor. Oh, and since he said that the regent is ungrateful, I'll raid his house first and then arrest him."
The lawyer was so scared that he kept wiping his sweat.
I thought they were going to punish him... I was scared to death.
He picked up the pen tremblingly.
remember.
He will remember it right away.
"You bunch of traitors! I have kept you for nothing all these years! You are a bunch of fence-sitters!" Magistrate Li's eyes turned red with anger.
And all of this is because of this bitch named Xie Li!
"You whore, I'm going to kill you!"
He drew the sword from the officer's waist and rushed forward.
"I kill you!"
"Miss Xie!" The Eight Vajras were shocked. They never expected that Magistrate Li would suddenly have murderous intentions. When they wanted to rush over, it was too late.
The flashing of swords and sabers.
A cold light flashed.
Chu Li held the table with one hand, used the force to leap sideways, and kicked the man out with a sweeping kick.
Bang!
The Eight Vajra breathed a sigh of relief.
Outside the lobby, an inky figure flicked his hand and dispersed the internal force in his palm.
Xiao Yexing was amused: "Look at how nervous you are. She is just bullying people here. Who can bully her?"
Chu Dichi's expression was indifferent, "You don't understand."
"I don't understand? How can I not understand? We grew up together. You were just nervous just now, and..."
"You're single."
"Just because I'm single doesn't stop me from understanding you."
"You're single."
"I……"
"You're single."
Xiao Yexing: “…”
If you can't speak properly, then don't speak, as if you are afraid that others don't know that you have a mouth.
Xiao Yexing walked away angrily, too lazy to look any further.
He was single, so naturally he couldn't understand the feeling of worrying about someone, wondering whether she was eating well, sleeping warmly, or whether she had any dreams, not to mention situations like the one just now.
Love each other as you love yourself.
Cherish the other person as you would yourself.
In the lobby.
Magistrate Li was captured by two soldiers. He was still shouting and cursing unwillingly, but with so many crimes against him, he could not escape death.
He must die!
After dealing with this matter, Chu Li suddenly felt much more at ease and could return to the imperial capital with peace of mind.
"My eight friends, thank you for your reliable help along the way. I will send you off for a thousand miles, but we will have to say goodbye one day. So, we will say goodbye now."
The Eight Vajra were very reluctant to part with Chu Li...the gold bars. Without her, where could they find such a good living?
The eight people were very nostalgic:
"Miss Xie, if you have any problem in the future, please feel free to tell my eight brothers."
"We follow your lead!"
"You are our best friend!"
They are people of the underworld, free and easy by nature, and the word "loyalty" is what they value most.
Chu Li was slightly touched: "Then will I charge you for visiting me next time?"
"...But as the old saying goes, even brothers should settle accounts clearly."
OK.
Understood.
