Nongmen lady Jiang Huhan

Chapter 224
224 Such a county magistrate
Fang Tong's face froze. He didn't expect that a peasant woman would have such courage to challenge his authority in court.

"That's nonsense. I have already investigated clearly. You have violated the laws of this dynasty by admitting girls to school in the name of building a school!"

"Which law, can your Excellency make it clear?! Over the 300 years since the founding of this dynasty, there have been [-] Yufeng laws. Women are not talented. I cannot remember which law once clearly stipulated that women are not allowed to enter. School!”

Xin Wan suddenly became angry, and just now Song Buya sent her a message, telling him that there were no clear regulations and laws in this dynasty, and women were not allowed to enter the school.

The reason why women do not appear in schools is because of the female virtues, female precepts and other rules and restrictions passed down from ancestors that restrict women's life.

It is when generations of people educate their children that they restrain women with publicity, reputation, etc., and also tell them that they are not allowed to enter school to study.

Because it is virtue for a woman to be without talent!

"Uh, this"

Fang Tong was stunned by the question, and quickly turned around in his mind, thinking that women were not allowed to enter school. This was just a rule passed down by his ancestors, but there was indeed no express provision in the regulations.

"What a clever and deceitful bitch. I am an official of the imperial court. Since I say I have it, I have it.

Come here, give me twenty killing sticks first, let her wake up to where she is before she dares to confront me, add twenty more, bang! "

Fang Tong ordered Xin Wan to be beaten, and many people at the door suddenly became commotion.

"Why did you hit someone now? Didn't you say anything?"

"That is, does this dynasty have any laws? If not, this female gentleman is not at fault.

If there is, then it should be explained. We farmers do not understand the laws and regulations, and those who do not can be punished leniently. "

"That is, he convicts people first and then beats them into submission. This is our county magistrate. He is truly worthy of the term 'Integrity and Integrity'."

The people began to talk one after another, because it was better to fish in troubled waters with more people, and many derogatory remarks about Fang Tong were mixed in, which made Fang Tong instantly angry, and his face was livid with anger.

And Xin Wan sighed secretly. She was not afraid, she just felt that the people in ancient times were pitiful. It was really sad for them to meet such a parent-official.

"Oh, what a great official power!"

"The governor has arrived"

At this moment, a report resounded through the lobby of the county government office. Fang Tong was stunned. He stared blankly at a man in official uniform followed by several guards with sabers, who entered the lobby of the county government office with a loud noise.

"County Magistrate Fang, won't you greet the governor when he arrives?" An official looked at Fang Tong in the hall and said loudly and unpleasantly.

Only then did Fang Tong react. He almost rolled down from the high hall, and then hurriedly ran to the governor and said: "I didn't know that the governor was here. I missed your welcome from afar. I hope you will forgive me." .”

"Ah."

Qin Nanshu hummed coldly, then turned to look at Xin Wan, who was still kneeling in the lobby with her back straight, a hint of admiration emerging in her eyes.

I have heard that the Eighteenth Master mentioned this trip outside the palace many times and was full of praise for a woman named Xin Wan.Not to mention her identity, she was one of the ten kings who had seen the dragon but not its tail. Now she finally wanted to take a chance, which made him curious.

But before others could see it, the prince, who was even worse than the ten princes, was stopped in the middle by the good show played by Fang Tong.

"Sir Governor, I am currently reviewing a case. I would like to ask you to move to the back hall. I will take care of the matter right now, and then I will take care of you!"

"No need, I am here to inspect the government affairs and people's livelihood this time. You are trying a case, so I can just listen." After Qin Nan finished speaking, his entourage moved around. Place the chair under the magistrate's chair.Fang Tong's face froze, and sweat suddenly broke out on his forehead.

At this time, he felt a little regretful. Because of his daughter's matter, he deliberately punished the farmer's school and the female teacher. Unexpectedly, he caught up with the governor on inspection. His case today was really going to hit him!
"Why, look at the embarrassment on Magistrate Fang's face. Could it be that this case is difficult? It would be better this way. I will also resolve the case with you. The case will be settled early and the people can live and work in peace and contentment.

It seems to me that this case has a lot of implications. How come so many people came to listen to it? "Qin Nanshu looked at Fang Tong and said seriously.

"This, this, no, my lord, my lord, ah, this is just a small case. I don't need the governor to do anything about it. I'll settle the case quickly." Fang Tong said, and quickly returned to his seat.

He raised the gavel and was about to slap it hard, but when he saw Qin Nanshu sitting there, he slowed down his efforts, making the gavel sound much gentler.

"My lady, I hope you are a prostitute and do not understand the laws of this dynasty. This is your first offense and I will forgive you.

Go to the back hall to receive the five sticks, go back and disband the women's school, and do exactly what I said before. I will forget about it and withdraw from the hall! "

"Wait, what's a female school?" Qin Nanshu interrupted Fang Tong and looked at him doubtfully.

Fang Tong choked for an instant, and then he used the same set of slanderous words towards Xin Wan just now.

After listening to Fang Tong's words, Qin Nanshu slowly stood up and walked up the steps to Fang Tong's official chair, looking at him coldly.

Fang Tong was so frightened that he almost rolled off his chair and quickly moved his position, while Qin Nanshu sat in the courtroom.

"Woman in the hall, please tell me what you have done."

Xin Wan looked at Qin Nanshu, looked at the plaque on his head again, and smiled slightly.

Then he spoke and recounted the entire incident simply and clearly.

"That's what happened. After the county magistrate's daughter left, today the magistrate sent someone to close the female school and summon the women to the hall.

Just now, the magistrate of the county said that the laws of this dynasty do not allow women to enter schools. The women of the people are not talented in school. They also know that women not to go to school is just a rule passed down from their ancestors and has not been written into the law.

What's more, Taoyuantang teaches female students literacy in order to understand contract documents;
The purpose of teaching them arithmetic is to buy needles, threads and brains so that they can understand calculations and not be cheated out of their money;

They were taught how to fertilize and fertilize the fields in order to improve the fields and harvest more grain;
They are taught how to raise chickens, ducks and livestock, which is also a woman’s duty after getting married and running a household.

So the women don’t know where they went wrong and which national law they violated?Which culpability.

Just asking the county magistrate, I almost ate twenty killing sticks!

The civilian woman was wronged, my lord! "

As Xin Wan's unceremonious words revealed the entire incident, Fang Tong's forehead became more sweaty.

At this time, in the cold winter, he was already sweating profusely like in summer. He looked like this, it was simply a guilty conscience and self-inflicted crime.

The people outside the door were also talking about it.

"That is, even though they are all in the same school, men and women are separated and etiquette is strictly observed. How can there be any talk of men stealing and women being prostitutes?
Why are you making such offensive remarks?

However, they are just half-grown boys and girls, and they can make a dignified county magistrate say such dirty words. Is this how a magistrate becomes an official?Isn't it an official who was bought with money? ! "
