Chapter 44 Conflict
He Jinchen walked forward and passed between the county magistrate and Xiao Heihu and entered the house.
The county magistrate put down his hand awkwardly when he wanted to say hello.
Zhidie also came over immediately and said, "Master County, please come into the house."
The county magistrate just got off on the slope.
It's not that Zhidie is attached to the powerful, but after all, he is the county magistrate. He lives in an acre of land under his jurisdiction, which is not too bad to offend him.
The county magistrate and Xiao Heihu entered the house one after the other, followed by several government officials. Zhidie was busy entertaining, boiling water and making tea. It took a long time to get it done.
"Mr. County, please drink it." Zhidie brought the made tea to him.
The county magistrate frowned slightly at the made tea, put it aside and ignored it.
It's no wonder that the county magistrate, who usually has a good life, can drink this kind of coarse tea.
"Come on." The county magistrate put on the master's airs and said, "Go and bring in the plaque."
Several government officials took orders.
Zhidie and Yuting looked at each other and didn't know what medicine he was selling in the gourd.
After a while, several government officials carried a plaque into the house.
The plaque is blocked with a piece of red cloth and can't see what is written in it. Even if you see Zhidie, you can't read it. It's still the same.
The county magistrate stood up from his chair and said to He Jinchen, "Mr. He, you are willing to distribute food to help refugees. My parents and officials in this place are very grateful, so I came to send this plaque as a reward."
With that, he lifted the red cloth covering the plaque with one hand, revealing the four golden words on it.
"Help the poor and help the crisis." Yu Ting whispered.
Zhidie's ears were sharp. Hearing her words, she asked in surprise, "Are you literate?"
Yuting nodded and explained, "My father is a teacher, so he has learned a lot since he was a child."
Zhidie felt a little inferior. She thought that she was the daughter of a poor family like her, and there was not much difference, but she didn't expect that she could still read.
He Jinchen stepped forward with one hand behind his back, and one hand gently stroked the words on the plaque. Finally, he said, "This plaque is well made. It must have been made by a famous artist, but it costs a lot of money."
The county magistrate hurriedly said, "This should be given to Mr. He."
He had touched all the four big words, and he raised the corners of his mouth and said, "But didn't you give the money?"
He said that the county magistrate's face was blue and white.
The little black Hu next to him couldn't look at it and shouted, "Bold, he actually talked to the county magistrate like this. Hurry up and accompany the county magistrate, right?
The county magistrate waved his hand repeatedly and said, "Presumptuous, Mr. He is joking with me. Why do you take it seriously?"
Yuting pushed Zhidie, who was standing next to her, and whispered, "Sister Zhidie, why do I feel that the county magistrate's eyes are a little wrong when looking at Mr. He? I feel pale."
Zhidie nodded and said word by word, "It's all caused by beauty."
"I don't think the county magistrate will come just for a plaque, will he?" After touching the plaque, He Jinchen sat on the chair and took a sip of tea and asked.
The county magistrate laughed a few times, "Mr. He is really smart. I have another thing to do this time." He said that he paused for a moment and gave Xiao Heihu a wink.
Xiao Heihu said, "Our county magistrate is going to take you back to his house."
As soon as this was said, Zhidie and Yuting were shocked off their chins.
Although the county magistrate was already Sima Zhixin to He Jinchen, he didn't expect that he was so shameless to say such a thing to his face.
Zhidie felt indignant. Although he was the county magistrate, shouldn't the county magistrate be blessed for the people? Why did he bully the people instead?
She said to the county magistrate, "We all know that your wife and concubines are in groups, and Mr. He is a man."
He is a group of wives and concubines, but men like him are extremely greedy. If you have one, you want another one. The more beautiful the better. Which of his wives and concubines can catch up with half of He Jinchen's beauty? Even if he is a man, who is a rich man who doesn't raise a few children?
Xiao Heihu said for the county magistrate, "What if Mr. He is a man? Our master has admired Mr. He for a long time. If Mr. He and our master, he will have endless glory and wealth in his life."
Zhidie felt that he was extremely shameless and said angrily to the county magistrate, "What if you don't agree?"
The county magistrate did not answer her, but Xiao Heihu said, "Today, our county magistrate is going to be Mr. He. He has to leave. If he doesn't go, he has to leave. Don't toast and don't eat punishment!"
He Jinchen narrowed his eyes and said, "Dog slave, when is it your turn to talk more? Are you tired of living?
Xiao Heihu wanted to say something else, but when he suddenly saw He Jinchen's expression, he didn't feel a little scared.
The county magistrate smiled twice, "I want not only you today, but also those two girls." Then he ordered the servistrate, "Go and tie them up for me. If you catch the two women, it will be yours."
The group of yamen heard the county magistrate's words, and their saliva was about to flow out.
I can't wait to jump on it immediately.
Zhidie was a little panicked when she saw this situation. She was afraid of being arrested, but she was also afraid that He Jinchen's identity would be exposed.
Seeing that the servists were about to rush up, she subconsciously grasped He Jinchen's sleeves.
He Jinchen was slightly happy by her action.
I know that it should be solved earlier, otherwise his little butterfly will be scared.
Seeing that a servant's hand was about to touch Zhidie, He Jinchen grabbed his wrist and heard a click. The servant's arm was broken, and he screamed in pain.
The county magistrate couldn't help but be shocked when he saw it. He didn't expect that he had so much strength. He thought he was just a weak scholar with no power to bind chickens, but he secretly regretted that he didn't bring more people.
Yuting, who was beside her, was also surprised. She was really unattractive.
"What you are thinking about now is not how to catch me back. You should think about your head." He Jinchen's eyes were full of violence, and his tone also added a little strength.
The people present looked a little scared and didn't know why he had such a great aura.
The county magistrate said in a panic, "What do you mean by that? I'm a court official. Do you still want to kill me?
Zhidie also took a breath of cold air. Will he really kill him? Although he is the snake king, this is the world. It is always bad to kill people, and he is also an official.
However, He Jinchen's next words made him feel much more relieved.
He Jinchen laughed and said, "You don't deserve me to kill you. It's not me who wants to kill you. Don't think that no one knows that you have embezzled those relief funds. The magistrate has come down to investigate. I think this time is almost time."
The county magistrate's face turned ugly. "You... you're talking nonsense."
He Jinchen snorted coldly and didn't say anything.
It happened that a government official hurriedly came in outside the door and knelt down in front of the county magistrate. "Sir, the magistrate is here. Please go back quickly."
As soon as he heard that the magistrate really came, the county magistrate was so scared that he sweated coldly. He took Xiao Heihu and several government officials and left as if he had fled.
