Tang Jiusheng sat in the second hall of Jiangyuancheng, interrogating the magistrate Tu Tianyin. Fatty and Tie Du stood behind Tang Jiusheng, Xiahou Lingyu and Jiang Wenniang stood on both sides of the case, and Sun Demin sat on the chair on the left side of Tang Jiusheng, a little uneasy. The yamen runners in Jiangyuancheng were arranged in two corners, all with water and fire sticks, looking embarrassed. Tang Jiusheng looked at Tu Tianyin who was kneeling straight on the hall and sneered: "Tu Tianyin, do you know the crime?"

Tu Tianyin said loudly: "I don't know! Even if the officials drink flower wine in the brothel during the day, as long as they don't delay political affairs, it's nothing! I wonder why the prince insists on the officials plead guilty? What crimes are there?"

Tang Jiusheng slapped the aggro and said angrily: "At the beginning of this year, the Wei Wang Mansion and the Military Envoy's Office jointly issued an announcement that the people were exempted from labor service this year, but why did you indulge your subordinates and force the people to perform labor service? Those who do not perform labor service will also beat them in the street? Where did you place your order?"

Tu Tianyin raised his head and said in anti-verbal voice: "Prince, don't you know that Jiannan has been repeatedly famined, especially Jiangyuan City, has been robbed several times! Now the county's silver treasury is empty and there is no silver. How can I use to repair bridges and roads? Even if there are silver and no strong men, who will do those things? Are the people not walking? The officials are helpless! Besides, the corvee service is determined by the law of the Great Shang. Can the prince's orders be greater than the law of the Great Shang?"

Tang Jiusheng was furious and shot the awkward tree, "Rareless! The emperor ordered me to govern the military and political affairs of Jiannandao, so he naturally has the right to formulate corresponding laws based on the situation of Jiannandao. How dare you disobey the king's order? As a local parent official, not only do you not know how to compassionate with the people, but instead do not care about the people, but do not show off. How can I spare you? Since the silver treasury is empty, how can you go to the brothel to drink wine? It is clearly a quibbling! Left and left, drag the Tu Tian Seal down and hit the twenty-pindles! Fatty, go supervise!"

A few yamen runners agreed and dragged the sky seal out. The sky seal loudly said, "Prince, the official is guilty! Please give up the official for the sake of Grandpa Gan! The official will never dare to do it again!"

Tang Jiusheng looked at Tu Tianyin, looked puzzled, and asked coldly: "Who is your grandfather?"

Tu Tianyin kowtowed heavily and said, "Prince, Grandpa Gan of the lower rank is Yang Jingzhong, the Minister of the Secretariat!"

Tang Jiusheng nodded and said, "Oh, it turns out that General Yang is your godfather! Okay, then let's beat the forty big board! Since you are General Yang's godson, how can you do such a thing that is insulting General Yang's identity? You shame the General Yang, who is loyal to the emperor and the people, and you shame the officials of Jiannandao! If you disappoint the people of the county, who will you beat you if you don't? Fatty, you must beat me heavily and tell the yamen runners that there will be rewards if you fight!"

Fatty bowed,

With a smile, he led the yamen runners to drag Tu Tianyin down and beat the board. Tang Jiusheng looked at Sun Demin sitting on the left and said with a smile: "Mr. Sun, I don't think you have to go back suddenly. Why don't you stay in Jiangyuan County and be the magistrate? I will appoint you as Jiangyuan County. You can guard this county for me here so that the people will not suffer. If there is anything, you can also report to the royal palace directly. How about it?"

Sun Demin hesitated for a moment and looked at Jiang Wenniang. Jiang Wenniang understood and nodded, "Since the prince trusts you, you might as well try your skills. What if you can be a good magistrate, it is better than going to a foreign country? Although Sister Xu is angry with you, she also has feelings for you. She only hates you not to be an official. If you become a magistrate, she will naturally not cause trouble for you again!"

Sun Demin then said, "Prince, I am just a scholar and have not yet won the imperial examination. It seems inappropriate for you to take over as the magistrate of the county magistrate?"

Tang Jiusheng asked with a smile: "What's wrong? If you can manage this county well, I will ask the emperor for a Jinshi class for you, what about?"

Sun Demin was overjoyed, came to the court, bowed and said, "I would like to thank the prince for his kindness!"

The fat man had someone dragged Tu Tianyin back. Tu Tianyin had never been beaten like this. After being beaten forty years, he was beaten to death. Tang Jiusheng sneered: "Tu Tianyin, from today on, you will no longer be the magistrate of Jiangyuan! I have removed your magistrate, and you can go back and reflect on it!"

Tu Tianyin lay on the ground half-dead and hummed, "Prince Xie Prince's Long'e, Prince, Prince, Qian, Qian, Qian, Qian, Qian, Qian, Qian, Qian, Qian, Qian, Qian, Qian, Qian, Qian, Qian, and Qian, humming!" Tu Tianyin's neck tilted and he fainted.

The fat man sniffed and smiled and said with a smile: "Prince, this kid is so irritating, he has even urinated!"

Tang Jiusheng frowned and said, "Drag it for him and deal with the injuries on his butt. Although the magistrate did not let him do it, he is the godson of General Yang, and he cannot be beaten to death! Otherwise, General Yang will not be able to argue with him, and everyone is not good-looking in terms of face! By the way, you go and call a few local doctors to come over and help him heal the injury first! Beating him is to give him a long memory, not to beat him to death!" A yamen runner immediately agreed and ran down to hire a doctor.

Tang Jiusheng picked up the brush on the table, grind the ink, wrote a letter to Yang Jingzhong of Yong'an, and told Yang Jingzhong about the situation of Tu Tian Seal, and specifically stated that it was not for the purpose of Tu Tian Seal, but because he made a mistake, and it was definitely not targeting General Yang. Of course, Tang Jiusheng knew Yang Jingzhong's character, and Yang Jingzhong was extremely protective of his son, so he was very likely to hold a grudge against himself because of Tu Tian Seal.

However, in order to ensure that the lives of the people in Jiannan Road can be settled, they may have to offend Yang Jingzhong. The chief general manager was unhappy, as strong as the people along the way. Tang Jiusheng ordered the fat man to go out to contact the people of Xiaowei, control Tu Tianyin in the county government, and wait until his injuries improve, and then let him return to his hometown. Tang Jiusheng smiled bitterly and murmured to himself: "For the people of Jiannan, I will even offend Yang Zhengzhong!"

Xiahou Lingyu heard Tang Jiusheng's words and kept laughing. Tang Jiusheng turned around and looked at Xiahou Lingyu, and said angrily: "Why are you silly girl laughing about?"

Xiahou Lingyu smiled even harder, and after a while, he said, "Brother Tang, you look so cute when you get serious! Don't worry, then General Yang is more than a hundred and a hundred, but it's probably thousands of people! If he feels distressed one by one, will it hurt? If this kid really has some tricks in Yang Jingzhong, how could he be a small magistrate?"

Tang Jiusheng stood up and said, "Okay, then I'll lend you a good word. I hope Master Yang and I don't have conflicts over this matter! After all, this is not worth it. I hope Master Yang can understand me."

Sun Demin suddenly transformed from a scholar to the magistrate of Jiangyuan County. This joy was extraordinary. Looking at Jiang Wenniang, who was already like a flower, I felt even more beautiful. Tang Jiusheng took the fat man and Xiahou Lingyu Tiedun back to the inn, leaving Sun Demin and Jiang Wenniang in the county government.

When Sun Demin took office, he was extremely excited. He immediately summoned all the county magistrates, chief clerks, clerks, yamen runners, etc., held a meeting, and asked about the money and food situation of the county so that he could know it. These officials of all sizes knew that Sun Demin was from the Wei Palace and dared not bully him as a scholar. They were respectful to him one by one. Sun Demin was extremely satisfied and asked someone to clean up the back house. He took Jiang Wenniang to live in.

Tu Tianyin's family drove out of the county government and rented a house nearby. Tu's family sighed one by one. After finally buying an official from Niu Mandi, they gave up their posts for Tang Jiusheng after three years. Where can I go to make sense? Fortunately, Tu Tianyin was very cruel and had already recovered the cost of buying an official.

Those small officials and officials all sympathized with Tu Tianyin in their hearts, thinking that he was both sad and pitiful, and just hit King Wei and lost his official position. Isn’t this unlucky? As long as Tang Jiusheng didn’t encounter those yamen runners beating the people, he would never pursue them.

Soon, the news that King Wei had just been magistrate Jiang Yuan spread, and the entire Jiannan Road officialdom was trembling. Everyone was afraid that King Wei would come to his territory in a private visit. If he was caught, it would be a big problem. For a moment, officials of all sizes were much more restrained and were a human being with their tails.
