Rumor Has It That I’m Pregnant with His Highness’ Child: Chapter 213 comfort
Chapter 213 Comfort
When the banquet was over, the magistrate Liu was already drunk and unconscious.
He was carried back.
Yu Weiwei and Xiao Yan returned to the house, ready to wash and sleep.
Because of their roles, now the two of them sleep in separate rooms.
Xiao Juan was a little unhappy about this.
In his heart, he silently made a note of Prince Min and his son.
Blame those two burdens!
Yu Lingwei had no idea about sleeping alone. She was still thinking about Magistrate Liu at the moment, and the more she thought about it, the more unhappy she became.
As a parental official, he does not care about the safety of the people under his jurisdiction, and only thinks about his own future.
Such a person is not worthy of being an official at all!
She tossed and turned on the bed and couldn't fall asleep, so she just got up, put on her clothes, pushed the door open and walked out.
She knocked on the opposite door.
Soon the door was opened, and Xiao Lian, who was wearing a thin middle coat, looked down at her and asked.
"What's wrong?"
Yu Weiwei: "I have something to ask you."
Xiao Yan turned sideways and let her into the house.
Yu walked to the table and sat down, and asked angrily.
"Can't someone like the magistrate Liu treat him?"
Xiao Juan sat down opposite her and said calmly: "Strictly speaking, Magistrate Liu did not violate the law and discipline, and our Justice Department cannot rashly intervene."
Yu Weiwei: "But he watched the people suffer but didn't do anything, and he still felt that he was very reasonable."
Xiao Lian: "That can only mean that he is incompetent. When the personnel department takes the assessment at the end of the year, I can suggest that the personnel department give him the lowest grade, but even so, at most, he can be demoted."
After listening to him, Yu Weiwei became even more angry.
Xiao Jian poured her a glass of warm water and said slowly.
"In our court, there are still many officials like Liu County Magistrate. They didn't make any big mistakes, they just did nothing."
Yu Weiwei argued: "Liu County magistrate is not only mediocre, he is also selfish!"
Xiao Juan: "But who is not selfish? Officials are also human beings, and they also have selfish desires. You won't understand the truth that when the water is clear, there will be no fish."
Yu Wei glared at him: "You actually speak for Liu County magistrate! Which side are you standing on?"
Xiao Juan was helpless: "I'm just telling the truth, if you don't like to hear it, I won't say it."
Yu Cuiwei of course knew that Prince Lang was right, but she was just unhappy.
She complained aggrievedly: "I'm a girl, I came here in the middle of the night to tell you this, just want you to comfort me, but you're better, the big truths are piled up one after another."
Xiao Juan did not expect that she would actually hit her back.
But seeing her angry and aggrieved look, Xiao Lian couldn't help but soften his tone.
"I know what you're angry about. I used to be the same as you. I would be very angry when faced with these things, but it turns out that being angry is useless, because you will find that there are many other bad things like this. If you are angry at everything, you have to be angry to death."
Yu snorted: "Then what do you say? Could it be that we just do nothing and let the local people continue to suffer?"
Xiao Jian patted her little head: "Just leave this to me, it's getting late, you should go to bed, lest you won't be able to get up again tomorrow morning."
Yu Cuiwei was still very convinced of Prince Lang's ability to handle affairs.
She stood up and said, "If you have any use for me, just tell me, and I will definitely help."
Xiao Lian stared at her and replied in a low voice, "Okay."
Seeing that he was looking at him all the time, Yu Weiwei couldn't help touching his cheek and asked inexplicably.
"Is there something on my face?"
Xiao Juan: "It's nothing, I just think you're fine."
When he first met Yu Lingwei, he thought she was an ordinary little girl who was greedy and greedy for money.
But after spending time with her, he gradually discovered more and more shining points in her.
She can never forget, has a strong memory, and can learn anything in one go.
Although she is very concerned about money, she has always been generous in business affairs. She can easily pass on skills that are extremely precious to others, and she can get happiness from this sharing and communication.
She also has a good sense of justice, she will lend a helping hand to those in distress, and she will fight injustice for injustice.
She is very good in terms of ability, character and character.
Yu curled a shy smile: "Thank you, I also feel good about myself."
Xiao Juan: "..."
He sent the person back to his room, then called Meng Xizhou and gave instructions.
"You send someone to investigate the cases handled by magistrate Liu since he took office, and pick out all the problematic cases for me."
"Here!"
Meng Xizhou took orders to leave.
Xiao Juan blew out the candle and went back to bed to rest.
He has seen many officials similar to Liu County magistrate. These people are timid and fearful, and generally do not make big mistakes, but there are definitely small mistakes.
Facts were indeed as Xiao Juan had expected. Many of the cases handled by magistrate Liu were unresolved.
Meng Xizhou put a pile of files on the table.
"All of these cases were presided over by magistrate Liu, and the final result was either the plaintiff withdrew the case, or the defendant ran away, and in some cases, the trial was temporarily adjourned because of insufficient evidence, and it has been adjourned for several years without a result. "
Xiao Yan picked up a file and opened it to read.
The content of this case is actually very simple. It is that a certain country squire favored his concubine, and condoned it.
When 's mother's family learned about this, they were furious and directly brought the squire to court with a complaint.
It can be seen from the plaintiff's confession that the wife's maiden family was originally emotional and made up their minds to sue to the end, and they had to seek justice.
But the plaintiff suddenly withdrew the case halfway through.
And Liu county magistrate did not ask the reason, and just closed the case hastily.
Xiao Juan looked at the defendant's confession and court trial records, and it was not difficult to guess that the wife's maiden family was coerced by the country gentry to be forced to withdraw the lawsuit.
And the magistrate Liu obviously knew about it.
But he adhered to the principle that one more thing is worse than one less thing, and he settled the case with the flow of the boat.
Xiao Lian tapped the name of the defendant in the file with his fingertips and said in a low voice.
"Go and check on this squire. It's best to find out if he has private contacts with magistrate Liu?"
Meng Xizhou took the order: "Here!"
At this time, Yu Cuiwei was painting for people.
Early this morning, someone came to the station to look for her, saying that they wanted to ask her to help draw portraits.
Yu went out to take a look, and saw the young couple he met on the official road yesterday.
A dozen people followed behind the young couple.
The daughter or daughter-in-law of their family was lost, and their whereabouts are still unknown. I heard that there was a young man in the inn who could draw portraits.
