Chapter 234: Petition

"Thank you for this son's relief just now, I don't know what you invited us to come over for, I don't think we have any money to make on our old farmers?" One of the old men said seriously.

"Several, I think you have misunderstood, I have no ill will towards you, I just can't get used to the power of the shopkeeper who looks down on people!" Qin Tian replied with a smile.

"Old man, I thank this son for his great kindness!" The old man who had just finished speaking immediately knelt down and thanked Qin Tian, and the other two old men did the same, and they all knelt down for Qin Tian.

"Oh, you guys hurry up, isn't this a sacrifice of my life? I just happened to be passing by, so don't mind! Qin Tian hurriedly picked up the three old men.

At this time, Ergou also walked in after parking the carriage, and came to Qin Tian's side, seeing that there were three more old men beside Qin Tian, he was a little curious, but he didn't ask: "Qin Gongzi, the carriage has been settled." ”

"Okay, Ergou, sit down! Eat together! Qin Tian said.

"Young Master Xie Qin!"

The three old men listened to Qin Tian and Ergou's object, and naturally saw that the two were masters and servants. However, Qin Tian was so approachable to his subordinates, and it was not in accordance with the etiquette for the master and servant to eat at the same table, but Qin Tian could do this, which made the three of them even more favorable.

After the second dog and the three old men were seated, Qin Tian began to ask, "I see if the three of you are in a hurry, is there something urgent?" ”

"Hey!"

An old man sighed deeply.

"I'll tell you!" Another old man began.

Qin Tian turned his gaze to the old man who was speaking.

"Don't hide this son, the three of us are originally from Lianhua County, and this time we came to Hangzhou to petition for our Chuzhi County in Lianhua County." When the old man said this, his expression was a little depressed.

"Qin Gongzi, please look, this was originally shown to the prefect to save Chu Zhixian's life." Another old man took out a white piece of paper with his name from his arms and handed it to Qin Tian.

Qin Tian took it with his hand, and casually flipped through it, and saw that there were tens of thousands of names densely signed on it.

After reading it, Qin Tian thought to himself for a while, it seems that this Chuzhi County is a Qing official who is loved by the people, otherwise there would not be so many people to petition for him.

"Old man, listen to what you just said, since you came to Hangzhou City to petition for this Chuzhi County, then why have you been to this Hangzhou Mansion and this petition has not been handed over?" Qin Tian asked.

"Hey, don't mention it, Gongzi Qin, the three of us waited in front of the prefect's door for a long time and didn't see the prefect, and then I heard that the prefect went to congratulate some dignitaries and nobles, and we didn't even see the prefect's face at all." The old man said with a sigh.

"I see! It's okay now, why don't you tell me what's going on in this Chuzhi County? Why were you arrested, maybe I can help you figure out a way. Qin Tian said.

"Since Gongzi Qin wants to hear it, then I will talk to Gongzi. Our Chuzhi County is named Chu Moxuan, but he is a well-known good official in Lianhua County, who is honest and honest, and has done a lot of good things for our people, and is deeply loved by everyone. It's just that not long ago, the son of the Hangzhou prefect did all kinds of evil, bullied men and women, and was imprisoned by our Chuzhi County, and because of this, he was hated by the prefect and dismissed from the official position of Chuzhi County! Therefore, we all feel worthless for Chuzhi County, because everyone discussed and decided to collectively petition jointly. The old man said.

"Humph! The upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, this son is not a good thing, and this old man is not much better. I didn't expect this Hangzhou prefect to behave like this, he really didn't deserve to be this prefect, and if he stayed in this position for one more day, the people would definitely suffer one more day. Qin Tian began to feel a little angry, and what he hated most in his life was corrupt officials.

When the three old men heard that Qin Tian was not the prefect on this occasion, they were immediately startled and hurriedly stopped: "Shhhh Qin Gongzi, you keep your voice quiet, if this word reaches the ears of the prefect, it will definitely affect Qin Gongzi. ”

"Don't be afraid, since I dare to say it, naturally I don't have to worry, but now I really want to meet this so-called prefect." The corners of Qin Tian's mouth hooked up and said.

The three of them were shocked by Qin Tian's words again, and looked at Qin Tian with dull eyes.

They looked at Qin Tian as a scholar, who was the prefect? That is the number one in Hangzhou City, on this acre of three-point land, that can cover the sky with one hand, how can Qin Tian fight with others.

Ergou saw that a few people looked down on Qin Tian a little, so he couldn't help but say: "Don't worry, a small prefect is not in the eyes of my son-in-law." ”

As soon as the three of them heard this, they began to look at Qin Tian again, could it be that Qin Tian had a bigger background than the prefect?

"I don't know if the three old men know where this prefect is now?" Qin Tian asked.

"I heard that others said that the prefect is in Hangzhou's largest businessman, Shen Jiadaohe?" The old man replied.

"It just so happens that I'm fine, so I'll ask the three old men to take me to meet the prefect for a while, I want to see how powerful he is." Qin Tian stood up and said.

"This ......," the old man hesitated.

"Qin Gongzi is not afraid, what are we afraid of? Qin Gongzi, I will lead the way for you. An old man also stood up and said.

Then Qin Tian took Ergou and left the restaurant behind the three old men, and after walking around the street for a while, he came to a more luxurious courtyard door.

"Qin Gongzi, this is it, we wanted to go in after we learned that the prefect was here to congratulate us, but people saw that we were dressed shabby and treated us as beggars, so they didn't let us in at all."

After listening to the old man's words, Qin Tian looked around carefully, there were quite a lot of people.

"Qin Gongzi, there are too many people here, you have to be careful." Ergou said vigilantly.

"It's okay, you can take care of yourself and these three old people, I don't need you to worry about my safety." He was very confident in Qin Tian's strength, and there were very few people who could hurt him.

"Have you heard, this Shen family's daughter-in-law was even invited by the prefect, and this prefect is worth five thousand yuan just to show up, it's really a big deal."

"Rich people are scenery, and if you want to invite immortals, you can invite them, but the face of this prefect is really big, and you will receive 5,000 yuan when you show up."

"Be quiet!"

……

Qin Tian was standing in the crowd at this time listening to the discussion of the people around him, and he couldn't help but be shocked when he heard them talk about how the prefect of Hangzhou could get five thousand guan as a reward for attending a wedding. Qin Tian secretly smacked his tongue, if they let them know that their emperor was also here, I don't know how much they would give.
