Precisely because these two people had a grudge, he was dissatisfied when the prefect looked for an opportunity to exploit them again, so he planned the fire in order to make the prefect's work useless. In addition, he felt that Zhao Huanyu and the prefect were the same.
, so we deal with it together?
Putting it this way, Zhao Huanyu felt that she was quite innocent. She had done nothing but was plotted against him.
If she hadn't had the foresight to collect all the food first, how could she have escaped this disaster?
The prefect didn't want to refute at first. Anyway, he had offended these people and there was no way he could survive. There was no point in arguing with this person.
But listening to this untouchable scolding him, he was still a little angry, and couldn't help but retaliate: "Why should I feel so guilty? On the contrary, you, a commoner with business registration, have what qualifications do you have to talk to me like this?
I am in a state of decline now, but you, a commoner, cannot teach me a lesson!"
The magistrate spoke like a commoner, so the scolding was quite nice, mainly because it was in front of Ji Mingxuan, otherwise he would have called him a pariah.
As a prefect, he has always looked down upon these common people and privately called them untouchables.
Ji Mingxuan was here to deal with these people, not to listen to their quarrels. Upon seeing this, he glanced at Fu Song, who then found a smelly sock and stuffed it into the prefect's mouth.
The smell of the stinky socks was so overwhelming that the prefect rolled his eyes and retched, but no one around him paid attention to him.
Ji Mingxuan asked Boss Zhang: "Tell yourself, what is going on?"
When Boss Zhang looked at Ji Mingxuan, he felt that he was extraordinary and definitely not an ordinary person. However, he still did not tell the truth immediately. Instead, he boldly said: "I dare to ask who the young master is. If the common people tell the truth, can the young master give me some money?"
What’s the common man’s opinion?”
"Do you think you are qualified to bargain with me now?"
Ji Mingxuan looked at him impatiently. He was still thinking about how to explain the matter to the little girl when he went back at night. These people didn't have any discernment, which was really annoying.
"Young master, please let the common people make the decision! The common people are willing to use all the food and grass in their homes as compensation. I just ask that the young master can sentence this dog official to death!"
As Boss Zhang said this, he kowtowed to Ji Mingxuan and Zhao Huanyu.
Zhao Huanyu felt that this matter was not simple at first glance, so he said: "Please explain clearly what happened first. If it is true that the prefect is guilty, he will naturally give you justice."
Boss Zhang didn't know who this girl was, but when she said this, the young man didn't react at all. He obviously acquiesced and told the story.
It turns out that these two families really have a blood feud.
Three years ago, the prefect Kong Heng just came to Qingzhou to take office. On the day he was paraded in the street, he fell in love with a beautiful girl. The next day, he had someone take her away by force. He ruined her innocence and promised to marry the girl.
Be a concubine.
That girl is really Boss Zhang's daughter. She was betrothed to someone years ago and will get married soon.
After her innocence was compromised by the prefect, she ran home and cried all night, and hanged herself from a rafter the next day.
Boss Zhang was heartbroken, but the people did not fight against the officials. For the sake of his family, he could only swallow his anger and look for opportunities to take revenge on the prefect.
This time he was forced by the prefect to give him food in order to resolve his personal affairs. Boss Zhang felt that an opportunity had come, so he wanted to give it a try, but unexpectedly he encountered Zhao Huanyu.
"That girl is your daughter?"
The prefect looked at Boss Zhang with some surprise. He had never known it all these years!
After that incident happened, he kept sending people to look for the girl's whereabouts. After all, the girl was good-looking and became his. It was a great honor to be his concubine. Who knew that she committed suicide because of the thought.
What's even more unexpected is that the girl turned out to be the daughter of the Zhang family!
Over the years, I really haven't seen any hostility towards him from the Zhang family. After all, every time they meet, they always smile and flatter him.
"Shut up! You bastard doesn't deserve to talk about her!"
Boss Zhang was very excited. Talking about the sad past three years ago, he was not the scheming Boss Zhang in the mall, but just an ordinary father.
The daughter he had worked so hard to raise was harmed like this. As a father, he could do nothing. He even had to smile and flatter him for the sake of the prosperity of the family. How uncomfortable is this?
It is said that you should not persuade others to do good unless they have suffered. It is understandable that Boss Zhang did this.
Zhao Huanyu sighed and asked: "Are you really willing to hand over all the food in stock at home?"
"Yes, as long as this beast dies, the common people will do anything!"
The Zhang family is quite famous in Qingzhou, but it is second only to the Qin family. The reason why the Zhang family is second only to the Qin family is because the Qin family has a very good relationship with the prefect. With the help of the prefect, they cannot grab a lot of business.
Speaking of which, there should be a lot of food.
Zhao Huanyu looked at Ji Mingxuan and asked, "How do you want to deal with it?"
Ji Mingxuan smiled and said, "I listen to you."
Boss Zhang’s intention of indulgence was indeed wrong, but fortunately he had a good attitude in admitting his mistake and was willing to take out all the grain in stock, which was much more than the two hundred dan each sent by the Qin family. Sending all this grain to disaster relief would help
Ji Mingxuan has spread a lot of good reputation.
Yes, Zhao Huanyu plans to use Ji Mingxuan's name for this disaster relief.
He is above the court, and it is not good for him to have a bad reputation.
"Then let's do it this way. Although Boss Zhang is at fault, the circumstances are extenuating, no substantial harm has been caused, and he has a good attitude towards admitting his mistake. I'll lock him up for half a month and then let him go, right?"
When she said this, she was obviously leaning towards Boss Zhang, because she also hated that bastard prefect.
There is no need to verify what Boss Zhang said, because the way the prefect acted just now clearly admitted that it was true.
Ji Mingxuan nodded and said, "That's your crime. As for Kong Heng, I can't bear to let him die like this."
Ji Mingxuan curled up the corner of his mouth and looked at the prefect with a bit of coldness in his eyes.
Boss Zhang didn't react for a while and wanted to say a few more words. But when the prefect heard this, he couldn't hold it in anymore and started kowtowing to Ji Mingxuan again: "Sir, please let me die! All sins
I recognize all my subordinates, please grant me death!"
Boss Zhang was a little surprised to hear that he was called Mr. Ji Mingxuan. He thought that Ji Mingxuan was just a noble son with no real power, but he didn't expect that he was the boss of the prefect?
He speaks with an accent from the capital. Could it be that he is a high-ranking official in the capital?
Moreover, the prefect was so frightened that he wanted to die, probably because it would be more painful not to die.
Boss Zhang was instantly happy and kowtowed: "Thank you sir, you are so wise!"
After that, both of them were taken away one by one, and now only a group of government servants standing next to them were left. They had helped the prefect do a lot of bad things over the years. Although they were only instructed by others, the things were indeed done by them.
Ji Mingxuan was too lazy to argue with them, and with a wave of his hand, they were all exiled.
