The so-called wall fell down and everyone pushed it, not to mention that the county officials had long made many people hate the fish and flesh people on weekdays, but they were hindered by his obscenity on weekdays, not to mention that the emperor was far away, and no one could cure him, so he couldn't do anything.

Today is different, there are adults who can call the shots, so the bold people directly reported the evil deeds of the county officials on the spot.

Not only that, but the officials also searched the inner hall for the evidence of the county officials' crimes against the common people for many years.

Looking at the account books, Mr. Chen found that there was a lot of land under the name of the county official, which he had purchased at a low price by taking advantage of his position, and even directly grabbed it from the villagers.

Si Linche, who was standing on the sidelines watching the trial, had always had a cold face, but when he saw a piece of incriminating evidence, he squinted.

That's something about the Si family.

He didn't have to think about it to know that this must be a good thing that Si Wenyuan did.

Si Wenyuan has always been unscrupulous, so it would not be unexpected if he did this.

Si Linche pulled out the account book with a cold face and looked at it carefully, without sneering.

The two of them are really embarrassed, and the things recorded in the account book are definitely enough for Si Wenyuan to be in prison and be the companion of the county official for two days.

But the Si family will definitely be involved.

Without thinking about it, Si Linche closed the account book in his hand and raised it, just about to open his mouth to call Lord Chen and show him the account book.

Who would have thought that before he could open his mouth, the ledger was snatched from behind him.

Si Linche looked back, Hou Yi looked at him with a smile, but his hand stuffed the ledger into his arms.

Seeing Si Linche looking at him, he just patted Si Linche's shoulder and signaled him not to speak first, and then looked at Master Chen.

Lord Chen has been paying attention to Hou Yi's actions, he saw the scene that happened just now, seeing Hou Yi looking at him, being able to sit in this position, Lord Chen is naturally also a good person, of course he knows what Hou Yi means, nodded lightly and ordered the officials to pack all the evidence of the crime and carry it away.

Si Linche still looked at Hou Yi, with a bit of temptation in his eyes, he was quite puzzled by Hou Yi's actions, not only that, but also puzzled by Lord Chen's attitude towards Hou Yi.

From the left and right, it is not like the old friend Hou Yi said, but he feels that Lord Chen is a little respectful.

When the county officials and others were all imprisoned and everyone left, Hou Yi spoke.

"I know that the things recorded in the account books should be done by Si Wenyuan of the Si family's own sect, but if you handed over the account books just now, then Lord Chen will not care who the Si family did this, but will only think that the Si family bribed the county officials, and when the time comes, you will not be able to get out of it."

"Why ruin your future for such a villain?" Hou Yi's voice was gentle and clear, making people not feel bored.

Si Linche also thought of what he said, but he was still not happy with Hou Yi's move to cover up the truth for him.

He thinks that this is the evidence of iron-clad crimes, which will definitely make Si Wen not die and shed his skin, and the pure person will clear himself, it has nothing to do with him at this time, and he is not afraid.

Hou Yi did this, wouldn't it seem that he was weak-hearted, but now that the matter has come to this, it can only be like this.

Yun Genggen stood aside, looking at the atmosphere between the two was really a little wrong, she stood a little farther away, and the voices of the two could be lowered a little, so she didn't hear what the two said.

"What are you saying behind my back? But what are the unsavory private words that I am afraid of being heard? Yun Geng joked with a smile.

She knew that the two of them must be talking about something serious, but the expressions on their faces were too incomprehensible, especially Si Linche's.

As soon as her words fell, Hou Yi took over.

"Yes, I'm complimenting Si Gongzi, but Si Gongzi doesn't seem to be used to hearing it." After speaking, he couldn't help but smile and looked at Si Linche.

Yun Genggen could also see Hou Yi's appreciation for Si Linche, and this appreciation has been undisguised in recent days.

The three of them stood and chatted a few more words, then left the mansion and walked towards the river again.

When I came to the river, after a few days of dredging, the water has gone down a lot, but there are still many displaced people, after all, their houses have been flooded or even washed away, and it is not possible to build them in a day or two, and the flood has not really passed.

And because of today's events, the mood of everyone in the official house was even more depressed, and many people sat quietly and distracted, not at all seeing the joy of having fun around the bonfire.

Yun Genggen understood that although the county official had been imprisoned, the village chief had been poisoned for everyone's livelihood after all, and had left three orphans and widows, and many people were unhappy.

After a few more days, everything went on as usual, except that the daily rice was still purchased from the Sijia shop, and Lord Chen also brought the first batch of disaster relief silver taels.

Master Chen knew about Yun Genggeng's good deeds, and he couldn't stop praising him, so he directly allocated some silver taels, and asked Yun Genggeng not to buy rice with his own silver money, but only to use the silver money donated by Fumanlou every day to buy it with the allocated silver taels.

And Yun Genggeng also agreed with a smile, but he still added money to buy rice by himself, and the rice also changed from 500 catties a day to 800 catties a day.

And the business of Fumanlou is also getting better because of Yun Geng's initiatives, and many people are admiring it, not only for the taste, but also to do their part.

Some people even donated the silver taels directly to the Fuman Building.

In short, everything is going in a good direction.

In the past few days, Lord Chen has also stepped up the trial of county officials, sorting out all the crimes, as the saying goes, there is really nothing wrong with petty officials being greedy.

Although it is only a small county, the amount of bribes accepted is also jaw-dropping, and none of the people around him are good.

After everything is ascertained, murder, embezzlement, forcible occupation of land, and punishment for several crimes.

Lord Chen decided to send the county official directly to the capital to deal with it, and ordered the chief secretary to temporarily take the post of county official until the emperor sent a new county official to appoint him.

Then Master Chen went to inspect the situation of the displaced people in the official house under the leadership of the chief bookkeeper.

As soon as Lord Chen arrived at the official house, the homeless people all surrounded him excitedly, and when the county officials were interrogated that day, many homeless people were present, so they all knew Lord Chen.

Everyone, you and I are thanks, praises, and then complaining about the flood victims.

Lord Chen also looked grim when he heard everyone's complaints, knowing that these people were now homeless, but the first batch of disaster relief money he brought was only enough to solve the problem of food, and then it was used to dredge the pipes.

Fortunately, the current saint Shengming knew the seriousness of the disaster and allocated the second batch of disaster relief silver taels for the victims to build houses.

Mr. Chen even said that everyone should not worry, the second batch of disaster relief money for everyone to build houses will arrive in a week at most.
