Chapter 87: Punishment
Qin Shaochu smiled and said, "Well, I'm back." ”
"How's it going? And what do you have in your hand? Duan Qiuyue asked
Qin Shaochu told Duan Qiuyue about today's events, and after Duan Qiuyue listened, she said: "I didn't expect this Liu Qiming to be so corrupt, and he wronged a good person for his own selfish desires." ”
"According to what you say, this Chen Qiang used to be the magistrate of Jizhou, so you still want him to be the magistrate of Jizhou?"
Listening to Duan Qiuyue's words, Qin Shaochu said happily: "It is worthy of being my lady, and I know the thoughts of my husband." ”
Duan Qiuyue glanced at Qin Shaochu: "Hmph, of course I know your thoughts, otherwise what else would you do." ”
"Hey, hey"
The two chatted for a while, and Qin Shaochu looked at Chen Qiang's information, and at this time, Li was asking passers-by on the street, as well as the oral accounts of the previous subordinates.
After more than ten minutes, Qin Shaochu put down the information in his hand, nodded, and said to Duan Qiuyue beside him: "It seems that this Chen Qiang is indeed a good official, during his tenure, he helped the people, and also reformed the system of Jizhou. ”
Duan Qiuyue nodded, "Well, in that case, let him continue to be the magistrate of Jizhou." ”
"Well, I'll watch for two more days, and I'll talk to him about it then."
"Okay."
In the past two days, Qin Shaochu took Chen Qiang to walk around this town, the people in the town didn't know Qin Shaochu, but they knew Chen Qiang, and hurriedly came up to say hello, "Chen Zhixian, I heard that you have been acquitted now, is it true?" ”
Chen Qiang looked at these people and said with a smile: "Don't crowd, listen to me, I'm not guilty now, and I want to thank this Deacon Qin beside me, it was he who helped me wash away my grievances, so I could be released." ’
When everyone heard this, they nodded, and then said words of thanks to Qin Shaochu.
Qin Shaochu waved his hand, indicating that everyone didn't need to be like this.
After a while, Qin Shaochu and Chen Qiang got rid of the pedestrians on the road.
Two days later, Qin Shaochu let Chen Qiang come to the prefect of the county mansion, and then said to Chen Qiang: "Chen Qiang, according to my observations in recent days, you are indeed a good official, if you are not allowed to continue to be an official, this is the loss of my court." ”
"So this official has decided to let you continue to be the magistrate of Jizhou and take care of the people of Jizhou, so Chen Qiang, are you willing?"
Chen Qiang was originally because he couldn't be an official anymore, but when he heard Qin Shaochu's words, he nodded hurriedly, "Deacon Qin, I, I'm willing." ”
Qin Shaochu nodded, "Well, since this is the case, you have to do a good job, and look at people in the future, but you have to see clearly, after all, some people don't know their faces." ”
Chen Qiang nodded hurriedly, "Deacon Qin, don't worry, you will definitely take a good look at people in the future, and this kind of thing will not happen again." ”
"Well, since you have decided, then you can take office today, and since you are the magistrate of Jizhou, then I want to ask you, how do you deal with Liu Qiming and others?"
Chen Qiang thought for a while, and then said: "According to my Tang Dynasty law, this Liu Qiming committed the crime of state and county science for his own selfish desires, embezzlement, and deduction. ”
Qin Shaochu nodded, "Well, yes, if you continue like this, then this matter will be handed over to you, for the arrest of the lady who hurt my family, you have to punish it severely, it is best.."
Seeing the movement in Qin Shaochu's hand, Chen Qiang's eyelids jumped, and he hurriedly said, "Deacon Qin, don't worry, you will definitely take care of it in the future." ”
"Okay, but this county magistrate, you can't live, it's better to demolish it, if this official comes to Jizhou in the future and finds that you are also with Liu Qiming, then don't blame the official."
Chen Qiang hurriedly promised: "Deacon Qin, don't worry, if it is really like that, there is no need for Deacon Qin to say, you will also take off your official hat, take off your official uniform, and personally ask for sin." ”
"Well, that's okay, the official will leave." Qin Shaochu nodded.
"Okay, Deacon Qin, I'll send you." Chen Qiang nodded.
After a while, Chen Qiang watched Qin Shaochu leave, looked in a direction, walked two miles, and came to a small house, Chen Qiang knocked on the door, a woman opened the door, looked at Chen Qiang, and her eyes turned red all of a sudden, "Master, you are back." ”
Looking at the woman in front of him, Chen Qiang stepped forward and hugged her, "Madam, I'm back." ”
Feeling Chen Qiang's warmth, the woman hummed happily
After a while, the two separated, "Come back, just come in, by the way, master, have you eaten?" ”
Chen Qiang nodded, "Not yet."
"Then sir, you wait, I'll do it for you."
Watching his wife leave the kitchen, Chen Qiang sat down, looked at the house, and sighed, "Hey, Qing'er, you have suffered all these years." ”
Half an hour, the woman named Qing'er served a few dishes, looking at the dishes and rice in front of her, Qing'er was a little embarrassed and said, "Master, this dish is a little shabby,"
Chen Qiang shook his head, "Qing'er, it's okay, I've been in prison for the past few years, and the food I've eaten is worse than this, it's okay." ”
Hearing this, Qing'er walked to Chen Qiang's side, "Master, you have suffered in the past few years. ”
Chen Qiang shook his head, "It's okay, when the time comes, you, you've suffered all these years." ”
Qing'er hurriedly waved her hand, "Now that I see that the master is fine, Qing'er's suffering over the years is nothing." ”
"Sir, eat quickly,"
"Well, okay, Qing'er, you can eat too."
After a long time, seeing Chen Qiang put down his chopsticks, Qing'er asked, "Master, I heard that Liu Qiming was arrested, is it true?" ”
Chen Qiang smiled and said: "Of course it's true, this Liu Qiming was really arrested, and I'm innocent now." ”
When Qing'er heard this, she hurriedly said, "Congratulations, master." ”
"Haha, I still have to thank Deacon Qin, if it weren't for him, I don't know when I would be able to come out."
After speaking, Chen Qiang told Qing'er about the past few days.
After listening to Chen Qiang's words, Qing'er nodded vigorously, "We really want to thank this Deacon Qin, if it weren't for him, my grandfather wouldn't be able to come out." ”
Chen Qiang nodded, and then took Qing'er's little hand, "Qing'er, I'm back now, you don't have to suffer anymore, and Gongzi Qin also asked me to continue to serve as the magistrate of Jizhou." ”
Qing'er was very happy when she heard the news, "Master, Deacon Qin is our great benefactor, we can't forget Deacon Qin's kindness in this life." ”
"That's right, I, Chen Qiang, will never forget Deacon Qin's kindness in my life."
The next day, Chen Qiang and Qing'er cleaned up in this hut, and took Qing'er to Qin Shaochu's inn, Qin Shaochu looked at Chen Qiang's arrival, nodded, "Sit down." ”
"Okay, Deacon Qin."
Qing'er looked at the young man in front of her at this time, took a step forward, bowed down and said, "Deacon Qin, the people's daughter Zhang Qing'er, I thank Deacon Qin here for helping my master wash away his grievances." ”
"Hehe, don't do this, Miss Zhang."
