They were chatting, but things continued to unfold.
While they weren't paying attention, they had already moved on to criticizing the five great virtuous policies of heaven and earth that had abandoned humanity.
“Your Excellency, when you first took office, it was a time of great wealth and prosperity; when you lived in the government office, it was a time of extravagance and debauchery.”
No one understood the first sentence, but everyone understood the second sentence. Ziwei's expression immediately changed and she looked somewhat embarrassed. She stood to the side and unconsciously clenched her fists.
However, everyone's attention is focused on what's in front of them, and no one is paying attention to Ziwei. Even her man, Erkang, hasn't noticed the situation of the person he likes, as he's watching the show with great interest.
Seeing that no one had noticed her, Ziwei's pale face softened a little, but at the same time, a huge sense of disappointment rose in her heart.
Why is no one paying attention to me?
"When you're presiding over a trial, it's a chaotic and chaotic affair; when the people are wronged, you're filled with resentment and hatred."
"Thank God you're finally stepping down today."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone laughed happily, especially the small families who had been bullied by corrupt officials. They were overjoyed, as if they had been hit by a pie.
They were practically dancing with joy.
"Hahaha... Thank God, I finally don't have to swallow my anger anymore! That's great!"
Thunderous applause and deafening cheers filled the air, revealing just how excited and thrilled they were!
His face even showed a sense of relief.
"Hahaha--"
...
"You, you unruly people, I have been good enough to you, yet you are still not satisfied and dare to insult me like this when I am leaving office."
The outgoing magistrate clearly realized that this group of people had come to humiliate him. He spoke angrily, and not satisfied with that, he continued to nag and threaten them.
"Let me tell you, the new magistrate will take advantage of you all and leave you with nothing."
While listening to the people still shouting, Chen Nian silently grabbed a handful of melon seeds from Ertai's hand behind him and gave half of them to Qing'er. The three of them were truly enjoying the show.
“Emin”.
"exist."
"Immediately arrest this county magistrate and bring him to the prefectural government, throw him in jail, and have someone collect evidence of his crimes and report back as soon as possible."
Having been waiting to receive instructions, Emin immediately stepped forward, clasped his hands in greeting, and responded to the Emperor's words.
The Emperor had already shown anger in his eyes when he heard what was said earlier, and now that people were saying such things, he couldn't suppress his anger at all.
He didn't realize it until he came out. Once he came out, he discovered that there were so many corrupt officials, and he kept running into them. And every time, someone would come to ruin the atmosphere when he was in a good mood.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I obey your command. Summon the guards."
Emin cupped his hands in greeting and led his men to the side to give instructions. This incident happened so suddenly that he hadn't expected to encounter it and hadn't had time to inquire about it.
Fortunately, the emperor did not blame him.
However, the former magistrate left at the right time, just in time to run into the emperor and spout such arrogant words. His good days are over.
As soon as the emperor spoke, the crowd realized something was wrong and turned to look in the direction of the sound.
"Who are you people, daring to impersonate the Emperor? You deserve to die."
The arrested person spoke with a look of terror on his face, and continued to make excuses.
The crowd parted to make way, and a group of people appeared before them.
"Do I need to introduce myself to the magistrate? I am Fu Erkang, a bodyguard of the emperor, and this is—"
Fu Erkang spoke first, introducing himself and then preparing to introduce the Emperor, when he was interrupted by Xiao Yanzi.
"Erkang—"
