Xu An stared at Gongsun Yan. The old man was still smiling, but there was a strong sense of teasing in his eyes.
Obviously, a big gift had been prepared for him in the county government office.
Cases piled up like a mountain?
It was probably that the cases that the previous county magistrate had not solved were now all moved to the county government office lobby.
Waiting for him, a prodigal son who had never been an official, to embarrass himself?
Bullying him because he couldn't judge a case?
But who was behind this?
Xiao Wenxuan?
This guy just left after being defeated on the city wall. It's unlikely.
Then it could only be Zhao Gao or Zhang Anshi, the old thief.
Is this a plan that fails and then another one comes up?
If you go, you'll be fooled.
"No, young master, I don't have time. What case? Wait until I'm in a good mood!"
Xu An bypassed Gongsun Yan, but Gongsun Yan and a group of constables followed him like a shadow and still blocked him.
"Sir, you have just taken office. If you give up your duties right after taking office, it will damage your prestige!"
How could Gongsun Yan let Xu An leave? He smiled and bowed, saying, "Please get on the sedan chair, sir."
"Please get on the sedan chair, sir."
The two squads of detectives also said in unison.
Xu An was speechless. Can't I not go now?
Prestige? Not to mention that my reputation as a playboy and a prodigal son is so great in Kyoto, and I killed the Dongyu envoys in one battle. Who dares to say that I have no prestige?
"What kind of sedan chair is this? There is a girl in the sedan chair? Go away, take her wherever it's cool."
Xu An turned around and left with a flick of his sleeves: "Don't follow me, young master. If you delay my fortune, I will not forgive you..."
Before he finished speaking, more than a dozen people knelt in front of him, knocking their heads!
"Mr. Justice, you have to make the decision for me!"
"Mr. Justice, please give me justice!"
"Mr. Justice, please, please save my child."
"..."
Looking at the dozen people kneeling in front of him, some were holding dustpans, some were holding peaches, some were holding poultry, and some were holding children...
Seeing this scene, Xu An was stunned.
The old thief Gongsun was well prepared, even blocking the road to redress injustice.
"Sir, this is what the people want! Please come to the court to try the case and redress the injustice for the people!"
Gongsun Yan bowed.
"Please come to the court to redress the injustice for the people!"
The two squads of constables also shouted together.
Seeing the commotion here, many people around came to watch the excitement and pointed at Xu An.
Xu An: "..."
Fuck, this even blocked my retreat!
I really don't care. Tomorrow, those imperial censors will group together to attack me. If the queen finds out, she will probably have to punish me again... I can't take the beating anymore. My butt can't bear it!
Well, since you want to trick me, I'll show you how good I am at solving cases.
You dare to bring up these small disputes and embarrass yourself?
"Okay, okay, isn't it okay for me to be afraid of you?"
"Take all the prisoners back and go to court!"
Xu An shook his head and turned to get into the sedan chair.
Gongsun Yan smiled coldly. It turned out that Master Zhao's method was the best.
This prodigal son is good at eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, but solving cases? Ha! He knows nothing!
"Get up and go back to the government office!"
He shouted, and the constable immediately carried the sedan chair back to the county government office.
In a restaurant not far away, Zhao Gao watched this scene, and his face was full of teasing.
"Uncle Du, thank you for your help."
Zhao Gao sneered and looked at the middle-aged man behind him and said, "Yesterday, Xu An made us lose face. Today, we will also let him taste what it feels like to lose face!"
The middle-aged man is Du Ruhua, the Minister of Personnel. He stroked his short beard and said, "No need to thank me. Originally, the position of the magistrate of Nancheng County was planned to be held by our people."
"I... just want to take back the position that should belong to us."
Zhao Gao's face suddenly became ferocious when he heard this, and said, "Don't worry, Uncle Du, he can't escape this time."
"Zhang Anshi and Qin Dehai have already contacted their censors. Tomorrow, with the support of the Ministry of Revenue, Prince Xin, and us, Xu An will be accused of obstructing His Royal Highness Prince Xin from providing disaster relief and making arbitrary judgments that have caused the people to be wronged..."
"Hmph, I want to see how he can defend himself with his broken mouth."
Wei Zizheng hurriedly bowed and said, "Mr. Zhao is wise!"
"It should be so."
Du Ruhua looked at Xu An's team going away, and her smile gradually became sinister: "Let's go and see what kind of bizarre cases our young master Xu will handle!"
...
The Imperial Palace.
Shulan Palace.
"Hahaha..."
The devilish laughter of Emperor Yuan Kang almost shook the rubble off the roof.
What Xu An did on the city wall had long been reported back to the palace by the secret guards under Sun Diao Si.
Yuan KangAfter reading it, the emperor was almost crazy.
"This little bastard really surprised me!"
"Empress, what's wrong with his brain? He can think of such a trick."
"I was thinking about whether to do something secretly to help him and the prince, but I didn't expect this little guy to take the power of disaster relief from the hands of the third son in this way."
"This kid... is really, really interesting. I really like him more and more."
Emperor Yuankang paced back and forth in the hall with his hands behind his back, smiling.
Originally, the Ministry of Revenue and a group of ministers forced him to transfer the matter of disaster relief to Xiao Yuanxuan in the morning court today. He was a little unhappy in his heart, but now it has disappeared.
"I'm afraid that group of old guys didn't expect this result after all their calculations, right?"
"Hahaha... I really want to see how wonderful the faces of those old guys are now."
The queen was busy doing needlework, and the corners of her lips were raised from time to time.
After Emperor Yuankang finished speaking, she looked up at him.
"Your Majesty, Xu An has undoubtedly stirred up a hornet's nest by doing this."
"Prince Xin originally wanted to curb the crown prince, but now he has helped the crown prince. I guess tomorrow morning, the memorials impeaching the crown prince and Xu An will be piled up on your desk."
"This is not a trivial matter. Your Majesty must think of a solution."
Emperor Yuankang flicked his sleeves and snorted, "Solve? Why do you want me to help them solve it?"
"They caused the trouble themselves, so they should solve it themselves."
The queen was startled, smiled and shook her head, "Are you really not afraid that Xu An will make a big fuss? With his temper, those censors in the morning court are really annoying. If he gets angry, he might really dare to hit someone in the hall. "
"No, Xu Xiao is not good at quarreling, but this kid is sharp-tongued and has a strong ability to confuse right and wrong!"
Emperor Yuan Kang narrowed his eyes and a hint of expectation appeared on his face:
"These old guys want to punish him, but I'm afraid that in the end, he will punish them instead."
"Tomorrow's morning court is destined to be full of blood and rain. I really want to see what kind of twisted logic this kid will use to fight back against those old guys."
"Of course, if he dares to make a move in the Zizheng Hall, then I... must break his legs!"
Emperor Yuan Kang raised his fist and snorted coldly.
