At this moment, Wang Xin is writing a description of the situation, writing out all the causes and processes of the case.
With the situation developing to this point, the news will definitely reach the capital, and Wang Xin, as the imperial envoy, will naturally take the initiative to report it.
"Just now, Mr. Zhao, the inspector, went to find Mr. Ding, but he was led to Mr. Ding's office!"
"Sir, it seems that this case is about to come to an end!"
When Wang Xin was writing, someone reported the situation in front of him. This person was his deputy on this trip, and he was also the second-class Jinshi in this scientific examination.
"In this situation, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Mr. Ge to make a decision!" Wang Xin sighed.
Hearing this, the deputy envoy was a little surprised and asked: "Elder Ge has the imperial mandate and the right to kill first and report later. Don't you dare to make a decision?"
"The involvement this time is really too wide, and it is completely different from the previous investigation!" Wang Xin said solemnly.
"this……"
In fact, when the two of them were discussing, Xie Xiaofang was already angry.
"As an official of the imperial court, you are supposed to enforce the law impartially, but you are trying to push the envelope on a small case, so that it has caused trouble in the county. I am so upset on your behalf!"
Under Xie Xiaofang's angry scolding, Ding Yan, the governor, completely stayed out of the matter, but Zhao Yaoyin was scolded and his head dropped.
He does have difficulties, but this is not the time to complain, because the reasons are not important at all.
Sitting back on the chair, Xie Xiaofang picked up the tea cup and took a few sips before suppressing his anger a little.
"That magistrate of Xuanning County, just fired his official position, and the same with that magistrate, we will deal with them together after the case is concluded!" Xie Xiaofang said coldly.
"Yes!" Zhao Yaoyin replied.
In other words, Hu Yuanjun and Magistrate Yang, who wanted to throw the blame away, still failed to escape their tragic fate because Xie Xiaofang convicted them of "passing the buck."
In fact, if Zhao Yaoyin had not been of high enough rank, he would not have been able to escape the fate of being dismissed from office.
After serving as two officials, Xie Xiaofang's anger subsided a lot, allowing him to think about how to solve the current problem.
When this case came to the government office, it came into his sight. Unexpectedly, the people below dumped the blame too quickly and did not give him time to react.
"When the matter reaches this point, there is only one way, and that is to handle it impartially... Let you handle it as a prosecutor!"
Staring straight at Zhao Yaoyin, Xie Xiaofang said coldly: "Just what is the verdict, do you understand?"
In other words, Zhao Yaoyin's idea of passing the blame failed, and the matter returned to his hands.
Xie Xiaofang first dealt with Hu Yuanjun and the other two, and now he had the intention of killing the chicken to scare the monkey. If he, Zhao Yaoyin, did not follow his instructions, he would probably become a prisoner immediately.
"I understand my humble position!" Zhao Yaoyin replied helplessly.
Glancing at Zhao Yaoyin, Xie Xiaofang continued: "You don't have to be afraid. The Lord's Holy Ming Zhuzhao is shining. As long as you do your job, you will be safe and sound!"
These words were both comfort and threat, making Zhao Yaoyin feel like ice and fire.
"You can go back, remember to tell everyone that the case will be heard in court tomorrow!" Xie Xiaofang stood up and said.
"Farewell to my humble post!"
After Zhao Yaoyin left, Xie Xiaofang glanced at Ding Yan, the emperor's confidant stationed in Jiangxi.
"Master Ding, this case was decided justly. If something goes wrong, you can't just sit idly by and ignore it!"
"After successfully passing this level, I will report to the Emperor to ask for credit for you!"
The last sentence, understood conversely, is a warning to Ding Yan not to sit idly by, otherwise even if he is the emperor's confidant, he will submit a memorial to him.
"Don't worry, Mr. Ge, but I have a destiny... I will definitely cooperate with you!" Ding Yan said with a smile.
This guy is also a non-stick pan, so he will never take the initiative to do anything, but will let Xie Xiaofang direct him.
If something was wrong, it was due to Xie Xiaofang's improper command and it had nothing to do with him, Ding Yan.
It can also be seen from this point that Ding Yan's personal structure is not enough, and he does not know that this is the time to stand up and strive for success.
"The gentry in the city are working together to petition each other. At this time, you should go and appease them..."
"Be kind to them and show them reason, so that they don't become confused and make big mistakes!"
These errands ordered by Xie Xiaofang were undoubtedly very difficult for Ding Yan, but he had to do them.
"I will do my best!"
………
At the other large mansions, a group of people have gathered and are discussing how to petition the governor's Yamen.
Among them, the Zhou family has the largest number of people, simply because the old man of the Zhou family was the official minister of the Tai'an Dynasty and was the most respected in Jing'an City.
Of course, the old man of the Zhou family was just a big flag. He was in his eighties and could not discuss matters. He just missed the meeting and returned to the inner house.
The person currently greeting the guests is his eldest son Zhou Yixian, who was awarded Jinshi twenty years ago. His mother died five years ago and Ding You was in mourning, so he has not yet re-entered the official position.
"Everyone, when things have reached this point, we must not back down anymore..."
"A scoundrel can seize land by just saying a few nonsense words. There must be no such thing in the world!"
"No matter what, the truth is on our side, so we have to speak out and let the weak officials in power judge the case impartially!"
What Zhou Yixian said caused everyone in the room to nod, obviously they all agreed with this statement.
Again, they would hold their noses and admit to all the previous reforms and taxation, but they would not give in when it comes to fundamental issues.
The courage to point the finger at a small gangster, they not only have it, but it's huge.
In fact, the court is currently imposing heavy taxes. If they are really bold, they should delay and delay this matter.
It's a pity that no one has the courage, and everyone is more active in paying taxes, because the guilt of resisting taxes is too heavy.
"Sir, there is news from the Prosecutor's Office that the court will open for trial tomorrow!"
After hearing this, the minds of these people in the lobby were spinning for a while.
The Prosecutor's Office wanted to pass the blame to Governor Ding Yan, but now he has announced that the case will be judged tomorrow, which is equivalent to saying that the blame has not been passed away.
It is further inferred that he must have been under pressure from Ding Yan and Xie Xiaofang, so the outcome of the case tomorrow will be obvious.
However, this result was unacceptable to them, so the situation was extremely unfavorable for the gentry.
"Everyone, we should go to the feudal lord to petition now, we can't delay it any longer!" Zhou Yixian said solemnly.
"Go now!"
"Go now, let's go!"
Everyone stood up one by one, feeling the urgency.
Zhou Yixian added: "Go to other houses and call for people. The more people who come, the better!"
After a brief discussion, the people gathered at Zhou's house left one after another, and in less than half an hour they gathered outside the feudal government office.
Jing'an Prefecture is the seat of Jiangxi County. There are definitely no shortage of big families here, so hundreds of people have gathered outside the vassal gate.
This was the first group to arrive, and the big families were still sending people outside Jing'an Mansion to find more people to put pressure on Zhao Yaoyin.
"The local ruffians are helpless and treacherous. The government should behead them as a warning to others!"
"There is no need to investigate the case at all. Such people are causing harm to the country and the people. Only by killing them directly can the gentry be appeased!"
"That's right...just kill that despicable rogue!"
Outside the inspector's office, the gentry were shouting loudly, the noise getting louder and louder.
If there weren't guards blocking them in front, these people would probably have poured into the Yamen.
And these officers at the front are also suffering at the moment. Being insulted and beaten is a minor matter. They are afraid of suffering the revenge of these dignitaries.
The gentry united as one and set off a huge wave, so Zhao Yaoyin had to go to the governor's Yamen again and ask Xie Xiaofang face to face for instructions on how to deal with it.
