Women dressed as men: powerful officials

Chapter 80 You Have to Give Even If You Don’t Want to

Cheng Tiankun looked at Xu Yuan and was silent for a while. Finally, he said, "Mr. Xu is really tactless."

"So what?" Xu Yuan looked at Cheng Tiankun.

"Not really. I just want to tell you that when you are a person, don't go to extremes. Mr. Xu, I have always felt that we get along very well. The Cheng family is interested in promoting you..."

"Forget it." Xu Yuan interrupted Cheng Tiankun with a smile, "When Cheng Jie bullied me, why didn't Master Cheng say this? Now you're pretending to be a good guy. Brother, keep smashing. If the county magistrate doesn't come out today, we can only go to Shuozhou County to ask for help tomorrow."

"Don't you think that once you go to Hanzhou, the governor of Hanzhou will be able to make decisions for you?" Cheng Tiankun couldn't help but sneer, "You three are so stupid, I'm afraid you will die before you even reach Hanzhou."

Cheng Tiankun folded his hands, knowing that he could not persuade Xu Yuan, and he became arrogant, trying to use his power to force Xu Yuan.

"Xuyuan, I advise you to be more sensible. Since ancient times, people have never fought against officials. If you turn around and leave now, I can help persuade County Magistrate Wei to let you go."

"May I ask, according to Tianqi law, can't the people beat drums to protest their grievances?" Xu Yuan asked Cheng Tiankun.

Without waiting for Cheng Tiankun to speak, she continued, "I have reported a case of injustice, but I have no way to turn myself in. The county magistrate ignored me and punished me instead. Master Cheng, who do you think should be put to death in such a situation?"

"You..." Cheng Tiankun gritted his teeth in anger. At first, he just thought that Xu Yuan was a little clever, but now, he felt that Xu Yuan was ungrateful!

"I did what I should do. I want justice. I have no regrets in front of the heavens and my heart. Even if the emperor were here, I would not retreat even a bit."

Not only the people watching around were silent.

Even Chen Shan was so surprised that he was speechless.

He looked at Xu Yuan and suddenly wondered, if Bei Yao were here, would he do the same as Xu Yuan?

For the sake of justice, I will not give in even a little.

I made a wish only on my fifteenth day this year.

At this age, even in the capital, those young men who have learned to write literature and poetry at the age of three or four may not be able to do this.

Make a wish, and you will achieve great success in the future.

But the disadvantages of making a wish are also obvious.

His family is his weak point, and he is too stubborn, so he will fail in officialdom.

If such a person receives the emperor's favor, his future will naturally be unlimited.

But if not, I'm afraid the road in officialdom will be difficult.

Chen Shan couldn't help feeling a little regretful.

Cheng Tiankun gnashed his teeth. He looked at Xu Yuan and suddenly took two steps closer, whispering, "Xu Yuan, don't think that I won't do anything to you just because there are so many people around! Killing you is as easy as crushing an ant. I advise you to be smart and get out of here!"

At the end, Cheng Tiankun couldn't help but roar.

"Okay, if you can kill me, can you kill General Xie Xiaocheng?"

Xuyuan stepped back, holding the token and raising it above his head.

"Thank you for the token from the general. He has ordered the magistrate of Sishui County to investigate the fire in the school. Master Cheng, are you still going to stop me?"

Xuyuan asked back.

"You have General Xie's token? Why didn't you take it out earlier?"

"That's right, we've been worrying for so long in vain."

"It seems that Cheng Tiankun has hit a wall this time."

"That's right, I just hit a wall. General Xie, he is the real person in charge of Sishui County!"

"Did the Zhang family kid join the army? It looks like General Xie must have asked him to keep an eye on him!"

"The Cheng family is in trouble this time!"

"Well, you said that most of the former students of the academy have died. Even Xu Yuan was hunted down and is half dead. Why haven't you heard that Cheng Jie is in trouble?"

"Yeah! Why didn't you hear that Cheng Jie was in trouble?"

As these words fell, the crowd fell silent.

Suddenly someone rushed out, knelt down in front of Xu Yuan, and cried, "Xu Yuan, you must seek justice for us. My child was about to get married, and now he is dead! Someone must have done it on purpose! You must seek justice for us!"

When one person rushed out, many people came over, knelt down, and kowtowed together, saying, "Please, Master Xu, give us justice!"

Xuyuan turned around and looked at the person kneeling on the ground.

Some people had tears streaming down their faces and their hair were gray. They had spent all their family’s efforts to send their children to private schools.

Unexpectedly, this was an unexpected disaster in the end.

Many of them, like her, had experienced great sorrow.

Cheng Tiankun was shivering and his legs were shaking.

Xie Xiaocheng is not comparable to Wei Chenggong.

Wei Chenggong was able to do whatever he wanted in Sishui County because Xie Xiaocheng didn't care about anything. He was basically in the military camp and rarely returned to Sishui County.

But if Xie Xiaocheng wants to intervene, it will be difficult to deal with...

When Xie Xiaocheng first arrived in Sishui County, Cheng Tiankun also thought about winning over Xie Xiaocheng, but what he didn't expect was that Xie Xiaocheng didn't move at all.

Later he found out that Xie Xiaocheng was a Beijing official who was sent to other places.

How could he, who used to be a member of the Imperial Guard and a close minister to the Emperor, accept money?

So, Xie Xiaocheng didn't take the money and didn't make things difficult for him. He just stayed in the military camp and served as the General Dingbei.

Cheng Tiankun no longer thought about winning over anyone.

When comparing Wei Chenggong and Xie Xiaocheng, the difference is obvious.

A man who has never been to the capital in his life, a close minister to the emperor.

A small official and a high-ranking general.

One is a county magistrate who has only a few crooked men under his command, and the other is a general who holds military power and has tens of thousands of soldiers under his command.

Xie Xiaocheng must be more powerful!

Being stared at by Xu Yuan, Cheng Tiankun swallowed his saliva and lost his momentum immediately. "Since... since he is a great general, I naturally dare not do that."

Cheng Tiankun said no more, turned around and said to Zhang Yue, "Brother, keep beating the drum. Magistrate Wei has to give justice today. He has to give it even if he doesn't want to!"

There is no doubt that her words were particularly inspiring.

Zhang Yue turned around, picked up the drumstick and said, "Okay! I don't believe that County Magistrate Wei can still sit still now!"

Not only Zhang Yue was beating the drum, but those who were kneeling on the ground also stood up one by one and started beating the drum.

In a short while, the gate of the county government office was crowded with people and the sound of drums was deafening.

The people waved their hands and cheered.

Outside the crowd, Cheng Zhicheng carried Xu Wenxian to the innermost part and then put him down.

I saw Xu Yuan dressed in white, standing with his hands behind his back, looking very imposing.

Cheng Zhicheng couldn't help but say: "Wish making is really powerful."

Xu Wenxian also heard what Xu Yuan had said before. He walked over holding his cane and said, "Yuan'er, come back."

"Father, why are you here?" Xu Yuan was stunned.

Thinking of her past life experiences and what Xu Wenxian had just said, she suddenly became a little flustered.

Xu Yuan was afraid that Xu Wenxian would be the same as in his previous life and asked her to endure it.

However, before she opened her mouth, she heard Xu Wenxian say again: "Your father is still alive. It is not your turn to be a hero in this matter. The person who should sue is your father."

Xu Wenxian raised his head and looked at the county government office with indifference in his eyes.

In Sishui County, officials protect each other.

He couldn't let Xu Yuan in. Once the door was closed, it would most likely be impossible to open. What good would it do even if he had Xie Xiaocheng's token?

After all, Xie Xiaocheng was out of reach in the military camp.

But now the arrow has been shot and Xu Yuan cannot retreat, so he will take a step forward for Xu Yuan.

When Xu Yuan heard this, he immediately understood Xu Wenxian's intention.

She said, "Father, County Magistrate Wei will not take me..."

Before he finished making the wish, the gate of the county government office opened.

Wei Chenggong asked, "Who is here, beating the drum to complain?"
