The Female Assistant of Wei Yuyan Shuangfei

In the main hall of Laigu County government, the three shifts of yamen runners shouted "mighty" loudly. As they beat the killing sticks in their hands rhythmically, an inexplicable murderous aura suddenly emerged in the main hall.

"Crack!~"

Xie Tingwen slammed the gavel, and the hall fell silent instantly. Sun Cheng, the head of the Criminal Court, hurriedly shouted, "Bring the plaintiff and his gang to the court."

"Bring the plaintiff and his companions to the court." The bailiff at the door hurriedly replied.

Soon, the village head Cao Shuang led the woman surnamed Cao and the villagers of Caojiazhuang quickly into the hall and bowed to Xie Tingwen.

Xie Tingwen raised his hand and asked, "Who is here? Who are you suing? What crime are you suing?"

"I am Cao Shuang, the head of Caojiazhuang Village. I have led the villagers of Caojiazhuang named Cao Wang to sue Liu Ping, the son of the county lieutenant, for forcibly abducting our women. I ask you to stand up for the villagers of Caojiazhuang." Cao Shuang leaned over and said.

"Oh!~"

Xie Tingwen hesitated for a moment and asked coldly, "Do you have a complaint?"

Upon hearing this, the woman surnamed Cao hurriedly took out the petition from her bosom and gently held it in the air with both hands. The yamen runner beside her took the petition with great tact and handed it to Xie Tingwen.

"Sir! Please help me." The woman surnamed Cao cried.

"Everyone, please be patient. I will read the complaint and then make the trial." Xie Tingwen calmed everyone down a little and then focused his thoughts on the complaint.

The complaint consisted of two articles, which clearly recorded how Liu Ping had forcibly abducted Cao Yue, the granddaughter of Cao Wangshi. After reading the complaint, Xie Tingwen's face changed again and again.

"Bang!~"

Xie Tingwen suddenly slammed the table and shouted angrily: "How can this be! In broad daylight, you dare to forcibly seize a woman. This is simply lawless!"

Immediately! He turned to look at Cao Shuang and other villagers and asked, "Do you have any evidence to prove this is true?"

"Reporting to the lord! We have thirty villagers here who can testify." Cao Shuang replied quickly and took out a contract from his arms.

Xie Tingwen had already made up his mind at this time. He slammed the gavel, took out a black stick from the stick tube and threw it out.

"Where is the third shift of yamen runners? Arrest Liu Ping immediately!"

The yamen runners looked at each other in bewilderment when they heard the words. No one dared to obey the order at this moment. The situation instantly fell into an eerie silence, and Sun Cheng's hand holding the pen could not help but tremble.

Xie Tingwen had not expected the current situation. He had never thought that Liu Qing's influence would be so great. The current situation is very unfavorable for him.

Seeing the yamen runners still unwilling to act, Xie Tingwen's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness. He looked at Sun Cheng and said, "Master Sun! Although the yamen runners of the third shift are under the management of the Li Yamen, can't I use the people from your Criminal Yamen?"

Upon hearing this, Sun Cheng hurriedly stood up and bowed, saying, "Why do you say that, sir? All the people in the Criminal Court have been transferred away by County Magistrate Liu, and I have no one to fill my position."

"Hmph!~"

Xie Tingwen sneered, then looked at the thirty strong men kneeling in the hall, with a cunning look in his eyes, and said: "Li Zheng Cao! Can I borrow someone from you?"

"If Your Excellency has any request, I will naturally cooperate with you." Cao Shuang echoed repeatedly.

Xie Tingwen nodded in satisfaction, then slammed the gavel and said, "You guys take off the clothes of the yamen runners and stand in court for me. Then some of you guys go and bring Liu Ping back to me."

The thirty villagers looked at each other in bewilderment. They did not quite understand what Xie Tingwen was doing. Even the yamen runners in the lobby were puzzled.

Fortunately, Cao Shuang had an active mind and understood Lord Xie's intention in an instant. They were now determined to sue Liu Ping, and Lord Xie also wanted to deal with Liu Ping.

The situation of hitting it off immediately was a hundred disadvantages and no benefit to Cao Shuang, and he immediately ordered the people around him: "Listen to the adults, why are you changing clothes, arrest people."

Cao Shuang's simple words were more convincing than Xie Tingwen's. The burly villagers stood up in a hurry and began to strip the yamen runners' clothes and put them on themselves casually.

Several other villagers picked up the black tickets, bowed to Xie Tingwen and said, "Sir! I will go and bring Liu Ping back to you right away."

"Yeah!~"

Xie Tingwen nodded and said, "Go quickly and come back quickly, otherwise something unexpected will happen."

This dramatic scene stunned Sun Cheng. Several yamen runners saw that something was wrong and wanted to report it, but as soon as they moved, they were noticed by Xie Tingwen.

"Crack!~"

Xie Tingwen banged the gavel again and said, "We are not leaving yet. If anyone dares to leave early, I will punish him severely."

At this moment, the villagers came to their senses and instantly understood the deep meaning of Xie Tingwen's words. They held the killing sticks in their hands horizontally to block the yamen runners' retreat.

......

Although Laigu County is a small county, it is quite prosperous. Two hundred miles to the east is the border between Dali and the Song Dynasty, and the business traffic here is quite prosperous.

Xie Shuting and her maid Lian Xi were strolling around the city seemingly casually, but in fact they were observing the location of the pharmacy and the commercial development of Laigu County.

The promotion of a county magistrate is based on the evaluation of his political performance, which is determined by four major categories: taxation, education, corvee labor, and prisons.

For Xie Shuting, who once served as the Empress Dowager, these were just small things that could be easily accomplished.

"Miss! We have looked at four or five houses, but you still haven't found one that you like. Why don't you ask the master to allocate a place for you so that you don't have to look for it so hard." Lian Xi said lazily.

"Are you afraid that I will suffer or that you will suffer too much?" Xie Shuting said unhappily.

Lian Xi stuck out her tongue in embarrassment, and said with a worried look, "The main thing is that if you walk on the street like this, and someone bumps into you, I will be in big trouble."

"If you stay quiet, no one will bump into me."

As soon as Xie Shuting finished speaking, she felt something was wrong. Her face darkened and she said, "How many times have I told you not to say anything unpleasant in the future?"

"Oh!~" Lian Xi responded with a pout.

Xie Shuting stroked her forehead lightly, feeling quite helpless, because she didn't know why Lian Xi's mouth seemed to be blessed, and every time he said something bad, it would come true.

The master and servant were still wandering around the city, looking for their targets.

Unexpectedly! At a corner not far away, a few slightly wretched men had already targeted them.

"Brother Ping! This lady has a good figure, with all the curves you would expect, and her temperament is the most beautiful I have ever seen. Brother Ping, do you have any thoughts?"

"Of course I have this idea."

The man pursed his lips while speaking, and with a sly smile on his face, he looked at Xie Shuting's back and said, "I'm going to kill this girl tonight, so you guys should cooperate with me."

"Hehe! Brother Ping gave the order, so naturally we brothers have no choice but to do it." One person echoed.

Several people watched Xie Shuting enter a bookstore with silly smiles on their faces, and they did not show any eagerness, but squatted in the corner with joy and waited for her to come.
