BXBX NOVEL Chapter 87: wait for me to honor you
"Qi Sha will definitely not treat you badly after reading the letter." Pei Yi smiled meaningfully.
She wrote down the process of how the surname Zhao extorted her money, and then asked Catcher Zhao to press his thumb to draw a bet. Anyway, Zhao, who was illiterate, would never have known that this so-called "thank you letter" was actually a confession.
"Okay!" Zhao Chule blossomed, complaining in his heart that the surname Pei is really a fool with a lot of money, and beamingly said, "The third master is so refreshing!"
Pei Yi quickly wrote the "thank you letter", and then handed it to Zhao Butou: "Zhao Butou, I have to trouble you to draw a bet—after all, there must be a record of all the money in my house."
Catcher Zhao was dizzy with joy, felt a group of silver ingots flying in front of him in a trance, nodded happily and said: "Understood, I understand! Mr. Pei, your family has a big business, and the income and expenses must be very detailed. "
As he spoke, he pressed his thumb into the red inkpad, and then pressed a red thumbprint on the paper.
The strength is so great, it seems that I am afraid that the effect of the "thank you letter" will be affected if the fingerprints are too shallow to be seen clearly.
"You have to take this letter well." Pei Yi warned in a deep voice, and then said, "I don\'t like to be disturbed at night, and I will talk about things during the day from now on."
"Understood." Catcher Zhao saw that he could get more money, so his attitude was quite good.
He put the "thank you letter" into the front of his chest very preciously, grinning and said: "Then I won\'t disturb the rest of the third master, and leave."
"Yeah." Pei Yi replied coldly, and looked at Zhao Butou running away impatiently with contempt.
This Linhe County is really rotten from the root.
A majestic county magistrate relied on his power to bully her a good citizen in such a way, which shows the actual situation of the people in Linhe County.
Before, she originally planned to wait for the imperial examination to become an official, and then follow her father and brother to assist Huo Yuan in rectifying the administration of officials. But now it seems that the officials in Linhe County have to be adjusted in advance.
This night, Pei Yi didn\'t sleep for long.
When it was daylight, she heard the sound of the cell door being opened.
Pei Yi woke up with a start, and saw that County Magistrate Li appeared at the prison door again.
"Master Li, what\'s the matter?" Pei Yi asked with a sneer.
County magistrate Li had a pale face, put his hands behind his back, and said coldly: "I\'m here to inform the third master that the steward Cao in your house beat up the court order officer, and I have already arrested him and sent him to prison."
In the entire Linhe County, the only person who can be called an imperial court official is Li County Magistrate.
Pei Yi couldn\'t help feeling angry.
This corrupt official is too greedy. Last night, he stole a sum of money from her, but he also arrested the steward of her mansion. How arrogant!
Pei Yi half-closed her eyes and quickly sized up County Magistrate Li, and said with a half-smile, "I think Mr. Li is safe and sound, he doesn\'t look like someone who was beaten."
"Could it be that what the third master said is that the officer is lying?!" County Magistrate Li was furious, and said in a high-handed manner, "I came to remind you kindly last night, but the people in your family were ungrateful and turned against the officer! So what if I help the third master deal with such a blind slave?!"
County magistrate Li was so angry, he originally wanted to confiscate Pei Yi\'s jade pendant with the same crane and deer.
However, Steward Cao didn\'t have eyes, so he insisted on handing over the jade pendant, otherwise he would never exchange it for silver taels.
Where is County Magistrate Li willing?
Seeing Steward Cao\'s ignorance of current affairs, he even despised him as a money-grubbing villain.
County Magistrate Li has long been used to being domineering in Linhe County. Where has he ever been insulted like this?
He immediately became angry, and directly arrested him and put him in prison.
"Why did the manager in my house become a slave?" Pei Yi sneered, "What qualifications does Mr. Li have to deal with it for me?"
"How dare the third master ask me what qualifications I have?" County Magistrate Li snorted coldly, "I am the parent officer of Linhe County—everyone in Linhe County must obey me!"
Even if Bai Liuye, who has a deep foundation in the capital, came to Linhe County, wouldn\'t he still ask him to help with errands with money?
Thinking of this, County Magistrate Li became more and more embarrassing, and said arrogantly: "If the third master pays more money, I can consider letting that slave go."
"Your Majesty Li is really arrogant." Pei Yi looked at this arrogant official coldly, "What if I don\'t want to give money today?"
County Magistrate Li has become accustomed to Pei Yi\'s gesture of directly giving money, and now seeing Pei Yi\'s arrogant attitude different from last night, he suddenly felt that his official authority was being challenged, and angrily threatened: "Sir, please don\'t give me money." Don\'t eat the toast and eat fine wine! You must know that Bai Liuye is still waiting for the third master to give him justice!"
If this person surnamed Pei doesn\'t obediently give the money, then he will let this person taste the hardships of this prison, so that Pei Yi will know who is the talker in Linhe County—even if you are a son from the capital, you can still do nothing. listen to him!
Pei Yi was really fed up with the arrogance and greed of this dog official, and said coldly: "Didn\'t Master Li find out the origin of the person you are going to deal with before taking action?"
County magistrate Li was full of contempt, and he didn\'t take this cowardly and stupid Pei family boy seriously.
"I don\'t care where you come from?" County Magistrate Li said coldly, "It doesn\'t matter to me if the king of heaven comes here—you have to be punished if you commit a crime!"
When he is stupid?
The surname Pei said he came from the capital, but ended up nesting in their small county town. It looked like the garbage of a big family\'s failed struggle for power.
Pei\'s family is definitely full of people who want Pei Yi to die.
Even if he punished Pei Yi today, I\'m afraid there will still be a group of people in the Pei family thanking him!
Besides, Mr. Feng, the prefect of the county, is his brother-in-law, who dares to provoke him? !
Thinking of this, County Magistrate Li said in a cold voice: "Come here, press Mr. Pei out and punish him!" This kid just gave him some money yesterday, but today he is getting tough with him, so he will take good care of Pei. Let\'s see if this person dares to mess with him in the future!
The jailers got the order, and walked into the cell fiercely, making a gesture to arrest Pei Yi.
But at this time, a jailer saluted loudly: "I have seen the prefect!"
Before the words fell, Lord Feng, the prefect of the county, walked over with a belly.
County Magistrate Li showed surprise on his face, and then he beamed with joy, and greeted him cheerfully: "Brother-in-law, why are you here? Let me tell you, you came just in time."
County magistrate Li pointed at Pei Yi as if offering a treasure, and said joyfully in a low voice, "That\'s a golden pig—this guy is very easy to handle, I\'ll take care of him, little brother, and make a good fortune to honor you! "
