After she became a county magistrate, she took the ghost to investigate the case
Chapter 7: Despise the People
"You are not as miserable as me. My fiancé and I were about to get married. The day before our wedding, I went to the street to buy some things and ran into Shen Baiting by chance. I didn't expect that he would actually keep an eye on me."
"He actually sneaked into my house with his servants on my husband's wedding day and raped me to death in front of my husband. Afterwards, my husband wanted to avenge me, but he was beaten to death on the spot by him and his servants."
A woman in red covered her face and cried.
"And I……"
"Sir, you have to make the decision for me! I..."
"Please, my Lord..."
……
Xu Yingying felt a headache when she heard the crying coming from all directions. She couldn't help but yelled, "Stop! Shut your mouths."
"Since you want this county magistrate to investigate your injustice, then you must keep quiet and come one by one. You can only speak when I tell you to. Do you understand? Otherwise, I will leave you alone."
As soon as these words were spoken, the chattering female ghosts immediately shut up. They all looked at Xu Yingying in fear, fearing that the only person who could see them would ignore them.
The scene suddenly fell into deathly silence.
At this time, Shen Baiting looked at Xu Yingying with an extremely strange look.
No one was talking just now! Who was the new county magistrate talking to?
Could it be... that he is mentally ill?
When he thought of this, Shen Baiting looked at Xu Yingying with even more disdain.
There was no need for him to take a mentally ill person to heart.
Li Siqi, who was standing by, naturally couldn't see these female ghosts. He just felt that Xu Yingying was most likely sick again.
The good feelings that Li Siqi had just felt for Xu Yingying suddenly disappeared, leaving only a sigh.
He's a good person, but unfortunately he's not mentally normal.
At the same time, the woman who was pressed on the horse by Shen Baiting's eyes lit up when she heard Xu Yingying's words. She immediately seized this last glimmer of hope and struggled and shouted at Xu Yingying.
"My Lord County Magistrate, my name is Wang Shanwen. I am just an ordinary girl from an ordinary family. I am not familiar with Shen Baiting at all. He directly dragged me into the carriage and tried to do something dirty to me in the street."
Shen Baiting heard what Wang Shanwen said in front of him without hiding his disdain. It's just a government office! He has been there many times.
Although there is a new county magistrate, in his opinion there is nothing to be afraid of. After all, this county magistrate looks mentally unstable and is no match for him and the Shen family.
If the county magistrate wants to work here for a long time, he must get the support of the Shen family. Otherwise, even as the county magistrate of this small county, he will feel restricted everywhere and unable to move forward.
When he thought of this, Shen Baiting's face showed a very proud expression.
Along the way, the Shen family is the local boss.
No one can stop Shen Baiting from doing what he wants to do.
When Xu Yingying heard what Wang Shanwen said, she immediately took the opportunity to order Wu Da and others nearby: "Come here! Quickly bring this criminal who rode his horse into the street and robbed the woman back to the government office. The county magistrate wants to give him a thorough trial!"
"Yes, sir." After Wu Da and others said this, they surrounded Shen Baiting.
Shen Baiting was not annoyed. Instead, he looked at Xu Yingying with a smile and raised his eyebrows, saying, "Your Excellency is really good at handling matters. As the saying goes, 'A new official starts with three fires.' Your Excellency's methods are indeed clean and efficient, which I admire. I wonder if your Excellency can still be so 'dignified' when my father comes later."
Shen Baiting spoke to Xu Yingying in a sarcastic tone. His voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just enough to reach the ears of everyone present.
Wang Shanwen, who was standing by, suddenly changed her expression when she heard this. She looked at Xu Yingying cautiously, fearing that Xu Yingying would give up saving her because she was afraid of the Shen family's power.
Unexpectedly, Xu Yingying's eyes showed no fear. Instead, she gave Wang Shanwen a comforting look and responded to Shen Baiting in a sonorous and powerful voice.
"Please do not worry about how I do things, Master Shen. Master Shen should worry about whether I can come out of the government office safely after entering it this time!"
After saying that, Xu Yingying gave Wu Da a look and said, "Hurry up and help Miss Wang off the horse. How can you pull a woman onto a horse in public?"
"Are the laws of our dynasty just for show? Where is the dignity of the court?"
"Yes, sir." After saying this, Wu Da helped Wang Shanwen down from the horse.
Shen Baiting was very unwilling to see the cooked duck fly away. He gritted his teeth and said to Xu Yingying: "Okay! I think you have guts."
Xu Yingying didn't even give the other party a chance to speak and just waved her hand to have Shen Baiting taken to the county government office.
Li Siqi followed Xu Yingying to the yamen without saying a word, but his sixth sense told him that this matter was not so easy to solve.
It's obvious at first glance that the Shen family is not a good family.
"mighty--"
"Okay, let's begin the court session now. Who is here and what have you done? Please tell us everything. As the saying goes, leniency is given to those who confess, severity is given to those who resist. I suggest you speak carefully, otherwise..."
Xu Yingying said halfway through her words, not trying to hide the threat in her tone.
"You called me here, don't you know what I did wrong?" Shen Baiting said to Xu Yingying disapprovingly.
As soon as these words came out, Li Siqi frowned slightly, showing a dissatisfied look on his face, "This is the government office, Mr. Shen, please be serious and answer our questions properly."
When Xu Yingying heard this, a hint of satisfaction flashed in her eyes.
Yes, it seems that her military advisor has already mastered the skills without her teaching, and he is a talented person with great potential!
Since Li Siqi didn't say much before, Shen Baiting had never noticed him.
Shen Baiting looked at Li Siqi with a scrutinizing gaze. He instinctively noticed that Li Siqi had an extraordinary temperament, as if he was a young master from a wealthy family.
So Shen Baiting looked at Li Siqi warily and asked, "Who are you?"
"I am the military advisor of the government office." Li Siqi said expressionlessly.
When Shen Baiting heard this, he immediately felt relieved.
He thought some high-ranking official had quietly come to the county town! It turned out to be a new military advisor and a new county magistrate.
Thinking of this, Shen Baiting immediately felt relieved.
Shen Baiting yawned nonchalantly, stretched himself, and said to Xu Yingying without raising his head, "Is there anything else, Magistrate? If not, it's time for my nap. I should go back to sleep. I've been busy all morning and my back and waist are sore."
After saying this, Shen Baiting raised his head and glanced at Wang Shanwen beside him, his eyes full of greed and a look of wanting more.
When Wang Shanwen saw this, his face turned pale immediately.
Xu Yingying naturally saw this scene. She slammed the gavel beside her and scolded Shen Baiting, "This is the county government office. What do you think this place is? Be nicer to me."
