Help!Master Chief Assistant's Jiaojiao is a black widow

Chapter 54
Regarding He Shiyin's name, Hua Rujin has some memories in her mind. It is said that she is quite a legendary figure. She became a wealthy family by her own strength and was listed as one of the four talented women of the Daye Dynasty.

She is also the only female lawyer in Jiangling City who can file lawsuits for others and has never been dismissed before.

It's just that she is more or less unruly when she sits on the ground and raises the price at this juncture.

"Miss He is really insulting her reputation by taking advantage of others. I have already sent someone to the provincial capital to inform my cousin."

Shu Jinxuan comforted Cai Baiwei patiently: "It's really not possible, I paid the money in advance for everyone, and I have to get the person out first anyway."

Hua Rujin looked at Hua Minze calmly, "Where are the big aunt and the rice merchants now?"

Hua Minze quickly replied, "Aniang heard that all the rice merchants have gone to the county government office, so I also went to the county government office to find them."

"The county government can't control this matter, it's a matter for the state government."

Hua Rujin thought about it and looked at Shu Jinxuan again: "The situation is urgent, and it is not feasible to write a complaint and hand it over right now. Even if Young Master Ye intends to help, he will pass the complaint to the state government layer by layer. It is said that the people in Yuezhou can't afford to wait, and so much food on the Chu River cannot be left on the river forever."

Shu Jinxuan hurriedly asked, "What can my cousin do?"

"Let's go to the county government first to find my aunt and those rice merchants."

Hua Rujin got up immediately, and told the two little Doudings: "You stay at home and take good care of Auntie, I will come back as soon as I go, don't run around."

Cai Baiwei was a little worried: "Rujin."

"Don't worry, Auntie, I will definitely find a way to rescue my father."

After saying that, Hua Rujin followed the two cousins ​​out of the courtyard and hurried to the county government office.

It was three poles high in the sun, and with the autumn wind blowing in, the city of Jiangling gradually became cooler.

At that time, the gate of the county government office in Jiangling City was already overcrowded, and all the families of rice merchants who were trapped in various places gathered here.

The lawyers who came here to write the lawsuit heard that it was related to the grain transportation in Yuezhou, and ran away before people could elaborate.

The rice merchants had no choice but to continue to surround the county government.

Dian Shi Lu Xiuyuan led the guards to persuade them desperately at the gate of the yamen, but no one was willing to disperse, instead, more and more people gathered.

As soon as Hua Rujin got off the carriage, she found her aunt Lu He among the bustling crowd.

She quickly squeezed into the crowd.

Seeing his niece approaching, Lu He forced a smile out of his head, "Rujin, you're here."

"Auntie, what's the matter?"

Hua Rujin asked first.

"Everyone has been here for a long time, but we haven't seen the magistrate yet."

Lu He frowned tightly: "I wanted to discuss with the big guys to raise money, but I heard that Miss He's family has changed her mind, and now she wants 8000 taels of silver."

"Is it rising again?"

"Hey, your eldest aunt and I can hardly get 5000 taels of silver, let alone 8000 taels. She is turning a corner and doesn't want to go through this muddy water."

Listening to Lu He's full of complaints, Hua Rujin secretly smiled bitterly:
Who is willing to offend the government, unless the money given is worth the risk she is willing to take.

"Let's stop begging her, and go directly to the magistrate's yamen."

After Hua Rujin persuaded Lu He, she quickly shouted to the crowd: "Everyone listen to me, the person was detained by the inspection department of Jiang'an County, and Yezhi County can't control this matter. We can only go to the magistrate's office. In order not to offend Ye Zhixian, he will gather people to make trouble and send everyone to prison, the gain outweighs the loss."

Some people listened with a look of resentment: "Whatever you say, girl, you will be charged with gathering a crowd to make trouble if you come to the county government office to seek justice. If you go directly to the state government office, the crime will be more serious. What's the difference? .”

"Of course not."

Hua Rujin replied righteously: "Yezhi County is the county magistrate of Jiangling City. It can neither manage the affairs of Yuezhou nor Jiang'an County. We have to go to the state capital."

Her phoenix eyes paused, and she slowly spit out a few words in a dignified tone: "Let's go to the state government office to plead for the people of Yuezhou."

Hearing this, from the teahouse not far away, there was a burst of gratifying voices: "Finally, someone who understands has come."

Seeing that Young Master was moved to tears, Ting An quickly asked: "Young Master, what do we do now?"

"Oh, it's windy, I got sand in my eyes."

Ye Chengwei rubbed his black eyes, and stood up resolutely: "Go back to the county office."

Then, with a calm expression, he led Ting An down the teahouse.

As soon as he showed up, he saw a crowd of people gathered around, begging constantly: "Master Zhixian, you have to be the master for us."

Ye Chengwei was protected by the guards, but walked in calmly, walked straight to Hua Rujin, met her eyes and smiled faintly: "How sure are you that you can persuade Wen Zhifu to let him go?"

Hua Rujin frowned and thought hard: "If Governor Wen is a smart person, I think I'm [-]% sure."

"Okay, then the county will add another [-]% for you, and we will use this [-]% chance to bet on his momentary confusion."

Ye Chengwei then ordered the servants to bring the horses, get on them, and lead the people to the magistrate's yamen.

In the yamen of the prefect of Jingzhou prefecture in the north of the city, Wen Yuming was sitting in the teahouse, enjoying this year's new tea leisurely.

Master Mu Xian stood aside, waiting respectfully.

"If you say that the second master of the Hua family is smart and sharp-eyed, if he hadn't reminded him in time, the government would have let those untouchables transport the grain to Yuezhou, which made Tang Ji cheaper."

Thinking of the current situation in Yuezhou, Wen Yuming gloated.

"My lord, but I fear there will be trouble."

Master Mu Xian reminded from the side: "In the past few days, I heard that the Meng family's rice store has started to reduce the price to buy the rice grain hoarded by the rice merchants a while ago."

"In this way, you can earn a lot of money without having to work hard. Anyway, the most important thing in our Jiangling City is food."

Wen Yuming slowly stroked his swollen belly, with a proud expression on his face: "When this incident is over, I will bring Hua Junxu to the government school. I think this person will be of great use sooner or later."

Master Mu Xian still felt a little uneasy, but he couldn't tell the specifics.

While hesitating, he suddenly heard a report from an officer: "I want to report to the magistrate, the county magistrate has led many people to the front of the government yamen, and the humble post seems to be not right, and I am afraid that something big will happen."

"Ye Chengwei?"

Wen Yuming's complexion tightened, and he quickly got up: "Go out and have a look."

As soon as the few people walked out of the government office compound, they saw the people of Jiangling City, who could not see the end, surrounded them tightly.

And the leader is Ye Chengwei, the new county magistrate.

"Yezhi County, what do you mean by this? Could it be that you are here for the merchants to transport grain to Yuezhou?"

Wen Yuming asked dissatisfied.

"Master Zhifu is too worried."

Ye Chengwei unhurriedly jumped off the horse, walked up to Wen Yuming, clasped his hands and said in a solemn voice, "I came to the prefecture to borrow troops from the magistrate."

"Borrow troops?"

Wen Yuming frowned in fright, and looked around in a panic: "But where is the enemy?"

"I'm afraid it will be soon."

Ye Chengwei's bright eyes flickered, and he pointed at the onlookers: "My Jiangling city county government has been besieged for the past two days, and there are hundreds of thousands of grains and thousands of peasants on the Chu River waiting to pull anchor and set sail for Fearing a catastrophe, I implore the magistrate to send troops to suppress it early to avoid riots."
