Huadu City, the prefectural government office.

Outside the government office, there was a huge crowd of people, and all of them had followed from the manor.

It was noon and no one was hungry.

Finally, it was the prefect who ordered the officials from the government office to chase the people away.

It took a long time to drive away these onlookers.

Kong Xiaoxiao had no intention of staying to listen to the trial.

Then she said to the prefect, "Sir, I have said all I need to say. But He Peng asked me to bring you a message."

"What are you talking about? Isn't He Peng dead? Why would I ask you to deliver a message?"

Yes, the little girl hasn’t explained clearly how He Peng entrusted her to redress his grievances.

"Sir, I am a Taoist nun, so of course I have the ability to see He Peng's ghost.

He Peng said that after you close this case, the He family's house and shop will be handed over to you to handle."

When the prefect heard this, his eyes lit up: "Really? Are you sure you didn't frame me?"

That's really great! It will be another source of income for Your Majesty.

Kong Xiaoxiao nodded helplessly and said, "My lord, if you don't believe me, I'll call He Peng's ghost out for you to see!"

"I don't want to see those horrible ghosts. They are too scary." The prefect quickly shook his head and refused.

Kong Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and continued, "How about I help you tell your fortune?"

Hearing this, the prefect was stunned for a moment, but soon reacted and said "hmm" to express his agreement. In fact, he was also full of curiosity about this little girl and wanted to see what she was capable of.

So Kong Xiaoxiao began to observe the prefect carefully. She first stared at the prefect's eyebrows and eyes and found that there were lines running through them, which meant that the prefect's parents had both passed away; then she looked at the prefect's chin and found that it was relatively narrow, which meant that his mother died first.

After observing the face, Kong Xiaoxiao finally spoke.

"Sir, your real name is Xiangfangzhou. When you were six years old, your father died of illness and you changed your name to Fang Laien. And although you are from the capital, you are actually a student from a poor family."

You have been without a mother since childhood. Your father is a night watchman who raised you with his meager income.

But he died when you were 6 years old, and you grew up eating food from hundreds of families in the village.

When you were 6 years old, you secretly went to the village private school to eavesdrop. You were caught by the teacher when you were 7 years old. Seeing that you had learned more than most of the children in the private school after one year of eavesdropping, he was moved by your talent and wanted to keep you secret, so he paid for your tuition for free.

You were also very grateful to him, and you did not let him down. You took the imperial examination and passed it as a student at the age of 10, a scholar at the age of 13, and a runner-up at the age of 16.

You gave all the money His Majesty rewarded you back to the small village where you were born and raised! Back then, you came to this bustling and bustling Huadu City alone when you were only seventeen years old. You started as a county magistrate, and after working hard and overcoming difficulties, you successfully became the prefect in just six years. You are highly appreciated and valued by the current emperor. And until now, you still insist on sending your salary to the village where you were born and raised every year.

"Am I right, Lord Fang?" Kong Xiaoxiao's voice echoed faintly in the air.

When Lord Fang heard this, he shuddered all over. He, who had been so majestic and imposing, suddenly felt a chill on his back.

He was stunned by the girl's words, and was shocked inside and out! He pointed at Kong Xiaoxiao in disbelief and stammered, "You, you, you can know so much just by looking at me?"

Fortunately, he had always been a good person since he was a child, and he was even more honest and upright after becoming an official, and he had never done anything inappropriate. Otherwise, I'm afraid he would have been exposed in front of this little nun!

Kong Xiaoxiao coughed lightly, and then said, "Do you believe me now?"

Fang Zhifu had always held the idea of ​​"a gentleman should not talk about strange things" and did not believe in these supernatural things. However, facing this magical little Taoist nun, his belief began to waver...his belief of nearly 30 years.

Prefect Fang still seemed a little absent-minded. He waved his hand casually at Kong Xiaoxiao and said, "Forget it. I believe it."

Seeing this, Kong Xiaoxiao couldn't help but reveal a hint of joy on her face: "Since Lord Fang has believed me, then what I want to say has been conveyed. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave first."

She was thinking about going to the He family to get her ID card and withdraw money, so she was very busy!

Hearing what Kong Xiaoxiao said, Prefect Fang nodded slightly to show his agreement.

Then, he lowered his head again and fell into deep thought about He Peng's case. He seriously thought about whether there were other places where he could use the skills of this little nun.

After thinking for a moment, Prefect Fang raised his eyes, stared at Kong Xiaoxiao, and said slowly: "Well, the evidence in this case is irrefutable. I will punish the two criminals according to the law. You are the first to contribute to this case, and I will remember it in my heart. After this matter is settled, I will personally write a letter to the capital to report your contribution to His Majesty."

Originally, Prefect Fang was planning to give the little nun some money as a reward. But when he touched his purse, he immediately threw the idea out of his mind. Although he looked glorious and majestic on the surface, in fact, he himself was short of money! Most of his salary was sent back to the capital to repay his kindness.

The remaining money was just enough for him to live on.

Kong Xiaoxiao understood everything. She waved to Prefect Fang and left.

After leaving the government office, Kong Xiaoxiao finally returned to the inn and successfully reunited with He Junlin and the other two.

After being delayed for so long, she was already starving.

As soon as He Junlin saw Kong Xiaoxiao coming back, his mouth started like a faucet and he began to complain bitterly.

"My dear little benefactor, you are finally back! Momo has been making a fuss about looking for you. My head is buzzing with pain!"

As he said that, he hurriedly pushed Momo in front of Kong Xiaoxiao.

Kong Xiaoxiao hugged Momo lovingly and comforted him gently.

After some comforting, Mo Mo finally burst into tears and smiled, showing her cute little teeth, and threw herself into Kong Xiaoxiao's arms.

After all, she is still a child. She can always keenly sense those who are good to her and naturally develop a sense of dependence on them.

The four of them walked towards Qingyun Tower, the largest restaurant in Huadu City, without any hesitation.
