Chapter 3: Silent Night Thoughts

"Goo, goo, goo..."

Out of nowhere, a few birds of black and white flew in, stopping on the willow tree where Hongyin had leaned before, and making a crisp call, comfortable and pleasant.

"It is really the legendary goddess of benevolence in the rivers and lakes, and it is a blessing for Zheng to meet her son today", Haozi was cautious and cautious, stroking and playing for a while, and his joy was overflowing.

Haozi sees himself as well-informed, but he has never been touched by this.

Curiosity is the only source of motivation to conquer the world.

Even if humanity overcomes everything, it will be faithful.

The years of human beings are integrated into the long river of human history, and it is impossible to see,

At the age of twelve, Qing'er went to Dazhou, Sichuan Province with his father to serve as the governor, and an earthquake occurred more than a month after taking office, and hundreds of thousands of people in the state were buried under the rubble in an instant.

The imperial court is making every effort to relieve the drought, and the relief from the earthquake seems to be very embarrassing.

In a hurry, the lives of countless people were in danger, and Qing'er set up a temporary rescue head-catching group in the name of Tian Wenjing to rescue the people from fire and water, and won the reputation of the rivers and lakes.

Although he was complained by the Bureau of his colleagues that he was conscripting women and wanted to rebel, it was verified by the imperial court that it was slanderous, and in order to reward Qing'er, Yongzheng personally ordered to reward Qing'er with the "goddess gold medal", and with this gold medal, he was exempt from criminal law.

At this time, at that time, the people used to talk about the beauty of the street scene, and the people of the Qing Dynasty knew about it.

is really a good woman in the world, Haozi sighed silently.

In the middle of the lake, a few white striped carp jumped out of the water and splashed three or three points of water.

Suddenly, not far away, the drum beat like a nebula, and more than a dozen small boats shuttled like meteors.

"Miss, it must have been the master who sent someone to pick us up!" Hongyin said happily.

"It should be."

Qing'er has a complicated feeling about her father, perhaps because strong women hope to get her father's sincere care.

But not every girl gets her wish.

"Stop the boat, stop the boat, Miss is over there"

It was the voice of Tian Qianliang, the housekeeper of Tianfu.

This is an old housekeeper who is loyal to the Tian family and is deeply trusted by Tian Wenjing.

"Didn't my dad say that he would come here to play today, why didn't you see my dad," Qing'er asked curiously.

"Oh, that's it, the master has something to do temporarily, and he has returned to the yamen"

"What's the matter?"

Qing'er has always been very concerned about the affairs of the Yamen, and often helps the poor to fight lawsuits for free, helping countless poor people get the justice they deserve.

Although it is said that Qing'er is Tian Wenjing's biological daughter, it stands to reason that she should be avoided, but under her daughter's soft and hard entanglement, she can't stand her daughter's coquettishness, and many times in court have made the people accustomed to the existence of Qing'er, a civil barrister, and they have great admiration for Qing'er.

So as long as Qing'er wanted to go to court, Tian Wenjing agreed.

"It is said that there was a murder case, and the yamen was in a big trouble," said Tian Qianliang, who seemed to be interested in the case.

"Okay, tell me carefully, what's going on", Qing'er felt that this case might be another big case worth helping her father deal with.

"That's the case, at three o'clock this afternoon, Li Xinli's father Li Damu on Dongmen Street died suddenly, he died extremely miserably, the back of the head was bleeding, the nostrils were also bleeding, the lips were rotten, but the skin on the body was fine, the body was found under a slope outside the East Gate, it is speculated that Li Damu was drunk and fell down this steep slope, and then died, but Li Xinli insisted that Li Damu did not drink, he must have been murdered! I'm crying in the yamen to avenge my grievances."

Tian Qianliang briefly talked about the case in one breath, which aroused Qing'er's curiosity even more.

"I know, this case is very strange, you hurry back and let my father send someone to investigate, let's go back" Qing'er was thinking about this case with a frown.

"Yes, Miss, the master explained that he hoped that Miss would come back soon, and that Miss would return home as soon as possible", an old housekeeper as loyal as Tian Qianliang has always been obedient to Tian Wenjing's words.

"Okay, we'll go home right away," Qing'er agreed.

Tian Qianliang glanced curiously at Haozi and Cheng Hanyun who were enjoying the scenery on the side again, and didn't say anything, and disappeared into the vast white fog again with dozens of boats.

With Tian Qianliang's understanding of Qing'er, in this small county, there is nothing that Qing'er can't do, as an old housekeeper, he can rest assured that the second child in the family is at ease.

"No, didn't you hear that all the cases here were handed over to the county magistrates here for trial? In such a small case, why bother the governor to personally intervene? Haozi felt a little curious and asked Cheng Hanyun in a low voice.

Cheng Hanyun hadn't answered yet, so Qing'er hurriedly answered.

"Mr. Haozi, that's the case, my father just came here, and in order to be familiar with the governance of the officials here, he has to personally grasp the front-line official affairs for half a year."

"That's true, Lord Tian is really a good official who loves the people like a son!" Cheng Hanyun secretly sighed that in his memory, there were only two top bosses who directly grasped grassroots affairs, one was Wu Xindi, who was dismissed and exiled to Yunnan before, and the other was Tian Wenjing.

Both of them are directly involved in the affairs of the grassroots, but the styles of the two officials are diametrically opposed.

Wu Xinde has a rule, that is, "the highest price wins", no matter what the lawsuit, it is implied that both parties will give money.

Your case may be difficult, you have to pay hard, this is what Wu Xinde said the most to the parties on both sides of the case. Of course, in the end, the two sides preemptively paid with gold, silver and jewelry, and it is said that a local rich man was sentenced to bankruptcy because he paid ten taels less than the other party.

When it comes to Wu Xin's experience, in the entire Gusu, everyone is still full of righteous indignation, gritting their teeth with hatred, and can't wait to cut his heart and dig out his belly!

But compared with Wu Xinde, who also likes to handle grassroots cases, Tian Wenjing is simply a world of difference.

Cheng Hanyun remembered that as soon as Master Sun arrived, he immediately went to various places in the jurisdiction to make private visits to microservers, and he especially liked to write articles about the experiences in the private interviews of microservers and distribute them to all his subordinates.

In Cheng Hanyun's memory, the most profound thing is Tian Wenjing's experience of vigorously sweeping away gangsters and eliminating evil because of a dead woman.

It was a month ago, Tian Wenjing in a private interview with Weifu, saw a beautiful woman like a flower in broad daylight, was deliberately framed and knocked down an old man, a group of villains pretended to be the old man's family and insisted on demanding a huge claim, the woman couldn't afford to pay, and was put into a sack by a group of villains and hooligans in front of everyone, and sold to a brothel for fifty taels of silver. In the end, the woman could not bear the humiliation and fell from the upper floor of the brothel, and her brain burst to the ground on the spot.

Tian Wenjing was shocked by this incident, and after returning to the yamen, he immediately contacted the contemporary officials, took back the right to judge cases at the grassroots level in the contemporary era, and after sending the relevant memo to the imperial court, he directly banned the official position of the prefect of the prefecture in accordance with the regulations.
