Chapter 67 Why did you lock the door when no one was around? Are you afraid that the firewood will b

Jiusu said firmly: "We need to bring the case to trial!"

"Miss Jiu." Magistrate Zhang turned around and shook his head, "Why are you so kind to a fugitive's family? I may need to remind you two that fugitives here have no human rights."

Hearing this, Jiusu said, "Sir, it is I who want to sue Huimingtang."

County Magistrate Zhang: “…”

Qian Junjie sneered, "County Magistrate, you don't dare, do you? No wonder everyone says that you are like a little chicken when you meet the owner of Huichuntang. Your woman ran away with him, and you didn't dare to say a word."

Dare! Why not!

Magistrate Zhang muttered to himself, he turned around and didn't want to continue.

Jiusu took a deep breath and said, "Sir, I have something to tell you. You are handsome, smart, and know how to act appropriately. You should not be the county magistrate. You should be the prefect this year, the governor next year, and a popular figure in the court the year after!"

Magistrate Zhang straightened up and a smile appeared on his face.

"Oh, I'm not that powerful."

"What a pity..." Jiusu shook his head. "Oh, forget it. You don't dare to do this or that. Just be the county magistrate."

When Magistrate Zhang heard this, he was unwilling to do so and stood in front of the two men, "What do you mean by that?"

Qian Junjie sneered and said, "County magistrate, what I mean is that you don't even dare to run a small Huimingtang, and you still want to be a governor. You'd better be a county magistrate honestly. Who knows, if you don't have any achievements, you may not be a county magistrate next year."

The two shook their heads and walked out of the hall with a smile.

"Stop!" Magistrate Zhang put on his official hat, put his hands behind his back, called the yamen runners, and said seriously, "Today, I will show you what it means to be an official!"

Jiusu raised the corner of his mouth and gave a thumbs up.

"Your Excellency is indeed mighty. I heard that Chen Zhao likes to serve the people and is a wise and brave official. Who knows, if you are not afraid of the news of Hui Ming Tang, Chen Zhao may hear about it and take you to Shengjing if he is happy."

Qian Junjie agreed, "That's for sure. I'll go home and tell my mother that the county magistrate is such a good official."

A short street.

County Magistrate Zhang left in a high mood. He looked at his official uniform and smiled happily, as if he would be able to become a governor in a few days. But when he arrived at the gate of Huiming Hall, he became scared again.

He and Lou Ming are of the same type.

He held his stomach and said, "Ouch, no, my stomach hurts. Let's come back in the morning."

Knock, knock, knock! Qian Junjie had already stepped forward to knock on the door, shouting, "Hurry up and open the door, the county magistrate is here! If you are too late, I will kill you!" He used his power to the fullest.

Jiusu clenched her fists slightly. She was not sure what would happen after she went in.

She said, "Sir, I heard that the prefect has already given gifts to Chen Zhao. If you fall behind, you may not even be able to become the governor, let alone the prefect. Isn't it the job of a man to climb up? Sir, please don't back down. Chen Zhao hates people who run away from the battlefield the most."

Magistrate Zhang was like a duck being roasted on a fire, wiping the sweat off his face.

"Xiao Xiao Hui Ming Tang, what should I be afraid of?"

The door opened, and it was the butler of Huiming Hall. He greeted him with a smile: "Sir, County Magistrate, what brings you here?"

Magistrate Zhang put his hands behind his back, stroked his mustache, and said, "Humph, someone sued Hui Ming Tang for breaking into a private residence and kidnapping Jiang Jinyou. I'm here to search, and you are not allowed to stop me."

He raised his hand and was about to order the bailiffs to break in and search.

Unexpectedly, the butler held Magistrate Zhang's hand, pulled him aside affectionately, and asked respectfully with a look of confusion and contempt in his eyes: "Sir, what are you doing? Why are you supporting a family of fugitives?"

"Someone has reported the case to the authorities. How can I just sit back and do nothing?" County Magistrate Zhang pushed the housekeeper's hand away. Who cares about you two?

The butler turned his back to Jiusu and took out a purse of silver.

"Sir, you and my master are good friends. Could you please do me a favor?"

"So, Jiang Jinyou is really in Huiming Hall?" County Magistrate Zhang felt something was wrong when he heard it. He frowned and asked, "Why are you arresting a fugitive?"

The butler stuffed the silver into the county magistrate's arms and whispered, "Don't worry about this matter. We can't afford to offend that person."

Hearing this, Magistrate Zhang calmly stuffed the purse into his arms.

"Butler, you are too polite. I can't do anything about it. That woman is the general's ex-wife. Let's go in, pretend to search her, and then leave." He patted the butler's shoulder and they smiled at each other.

The housekeeper whispered, "He was sent to the woodshed."

Seeing the soldiers rushing in to search, Qian Junjie and Jiusu followed in.

Qian Junjie touched his chin and said, "I feel like the county magistrate has been bribed. They were very fast and it didn't look like a search at all. Even if Jiang Jing's father was there, he would probably pretend to be blind."

Can you still play like this?

Jiusu cleared his throat, "Uncle Jiang, are you here?"

Qian Junjie also shouted in the same tone: "Jiang Jing's father!"

Jiu Su: "..."

Bang! Whoosh!

Fireworks bloomed in the sky, in the direction of the woodshed. The housekeeper was startled, and a serious expression appeared on his face. He shouted, "Who is stealing there? Come on, drive the thief out!"

Jiusu ran forward, looked at the surrounding houses, and looked at the locked woodshed.

"Mr. County Magistrate, I guess Uncle Jiang is here. Please have someone open it."

"This is just a woodshed, how could someone be imprisoned there?" County Magistrate Zhang's heart skipped a beat. This man really knows how to choose. Isn't this where Huiming Hall hides people? "Let's search somewhere else."

Jiusu looked at the axe beside her and smashed it at the lock.

The butler looked at the servant.

The servants rushed forward.

Qian Junjie stretched out his hand to block the way and said, "Why did you lock it when no one was around? Are you afraid of stealing firewood? How many people have you killed in your life hall this time? How dare you kidnap people now?"

The housekeeper gritted his teeth and said, "Come here, arrest these two thugs who broke into the pharmacy and caused trouble! Beat them to death with sticks!"

Magistrate Zhang took a deep breath, as if thinking about what to do.

"this…"

Behind him, Master Qian was holding a torch, followed by Jiang Jing and others, with his guards and people watching the show at the door. He walked to his son, his eyes gradually filled with satisfaction, then he looked at the butler with a cold face.

"I want to see who dares to beat my son to death!"

Everyone knows that the Qian family is from Shengjing, and that Mr. Qian’s father-in-law is a high-ranking official in Shengjing.

The housekeeper immediately bowed and apologized: "I am shortsighted, please forgive me, Master Qian, but it is inappropriate for Master Qian to bring people to the Mingtang to cause trouble and slander us all the time, right?"

He glanced at the guard and signaled to take action against the woman who was smashing the door.

He couldn't afford to offend the Qian family, and he couldn't handle a woman.

Jiang Jing took the axe from Jiusu's hand, looked at her red palm with heartache, gritted his teeth and smashed it, the iron lock fell to the ground with a clang, he pushed open the door and ran in, "Father!"

Master Qian and others also followed in.

Jiang Jinyou was tied to a pillar, his face was pale, and he could no longer speak. "Che'er, Miss Jiu..."

County Magistrate Zhang was sweating all over. What should he do?

He was caught red-handed, and immediately felt the silver in his arms was extremely hot. He shouted, "Where is Lou Ming? Tell Lou Ming to get out here."
