Arresting the county magistrate’s son privately?
The crime can be serious or minor.
Governor Dou looked at Adjutant Zhao with an inquiring look.
In fact, Governor Dou was mostly responsible for repairing the chains, while the daily affairs of Linbei Province were mostly handled by Adjutant Zhao.
Adjutant Zhao said, "It is true. The Qin prefect had already reported it, but you were in seclusion the entire time, so the matter was never addressed."
Seeing Governor Dou's question, Adjutant Zhao hurriedly said, "Qin Yue, the son of the Qin County Magistrate, was joking with Peiyang City Lord Su Muke, but the consequences were somewhat serious. It caused the death of Xu Cheng, a merchant in Peiyang City."
Governor Dou: "Is that all?"
Adjutant Zhao's eyes darkened slightly as he nodded, "That's it."
Qin Qin stared at Su Luo intently: "Just for a joke like this, you arrested my brother? Su Muke, who gave you the courage?!"
Governor Dou's eyes fell on Su Luo.
Judging from what she had just done, she was so smart, how could she do something so stupid? If she wanted to arrest someone, she would have prepared every detail so thoroughly that no one would be able to say anything.
Sure enough, before Su Luo could say anything, the people who were waiting outside for the trial of the Xunnan City Lord could no longer hold back.
"Bullshit! What do you mean it's just a joke?! Is Qin Yue kidding?!"
"And you accidentally killed Xu Cheng? Accidentally? I'm really laughing."
"How could someone lie so openly in such a bright and clear world?! I've really learned something new."
"Someone actually tried to whitewash Qin Yue's affairs? How foolish he must be."
"How could the people around Governor Dou be so clueless? I even doubt whether Governor Dou can handle the matter of the Xunnan City Lord impartially!"
…
Governor Dou did not expect that the public backlash against the Qin Yue incident would be so strong.
Adjutant Zhao has always handled daily affairs on behalf of Governor Dou. He has great power and is a bit arrogant, so he spoke without thinking just now.
When he heard the reactions of the people outside, he immediately broke out in a cold sweat!
It's expanded and expanded.
Adjutant Zhao calmed down and said to Governor Dou with a wry smile, "This is what the document submitted by County Magistrate Qin says. I also feel there are some issues with it, so I have been holding it back. This time I came to Longyuan County, I was going to investigate this matter thoroughly."
The common people were not so angry at this point, and they all said to Adjutant Zhao:
"That Qin Yue is a piece of shit! Do you know what he did? He actually bribed Xu Cheng to cheat the Su family!"
"Xu Cheng is also a ruthless person. He poisoned his own concubine and put the blame on the Su family's Ruyi Tavern, slandering the tavern for killing people."
"Qin Yue is a mad man. He even wanted to kill Xu Cheng to silence him. After Xu Cheng found out, he suddenly came to his senses and told the whole truth!"
"Don't disbelieve us, we were all there! There are so many of us who can testify for our City Lord Su!"
"Thanks to our City Lord Su, who was so perceptive and uncovered the truth! Others feared County Magistrate Qin, but we, City Lord Su, risked offending our superiors to capture Qin Yue. Who could compare to his lonesome bravery?!"
"That's right, our City Lord Su handled the matter impartially, what's wrong with that?"
"You officials said that the literati and officials could not be punished, but now you are protecting each other and you are saying that the sons of officials cannot be punished? How could you do that?!"
"How dare you slander our Lord Su? How can you be so unreasonable, woman? No wonder you are so ugly, it's because your heart is so ugly!"
