Chapter 402 Your grandpa was scared since he was a child
It's unclear what Chen Zhao said to Headmaster Chen on the way, but it's obvious that Headmaster Chen was very cooperative.
He stroked his beard, his face serious and cold. "A mere county magistrate dares to call himself the emperor. You are indeed wolves in sheep's clothing."
After saying that, he cupped his hands in the direction of the capital and said, "When I return to my residence, I will write to the Censorate and ask them to investigate who this magistrate of Su County really is."
Chen Zhao chimed in, "Yes, they must be investigated. A mere grandson dares to shout and threaten violence in broad daylight. It's clear they don't value human life at all, and who knows how many innocent people they've persecuted!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he glanced around at the onlookers.
They whispered amongst themselves, but no one dared to offer any help.
Seeing this, Lin Chang'er's eyes darted around, and she said loudly, "How do you know that you won't be the ones facing swords tomorrow, if you all stand by and watch coldly today?"
The surrounding people looked at each other, when suddenly an old man squeezed out of the crowd and knelt down in front of Chen Shanzhang with a thud. "The steward of Magistrate Yang's mansion has seized my family's fertile land and beaten my son. I beg you, sir, to do justice for this old man!"
After that, another old woman rushed out, saying, "The son of Magistrate Yang broke into my house in broad daylight and insulted my granddaughter. This old woman has nowhere to turn for help. I beg you, sir, to do me justice."
Then another middle-aged man rushed out, saying, "The nephew of Magistrate Yang forcibly seized my family's ancestral secret recipe and drove my father to his death. I beg you to do me justice."
One victim after another filed their complaints.
Lin Chang'er's brows furrowed more and more tightly. She thought to herself, "This magistrate of Su County may not be a high-ranking official, but he's got a lot of dirty tricks up his sleeve, bullying men and women."
No wonder they raised a spoiled brat like Yun Sheng.
However, this time, they've stirred up a hornet's nest.
It's unclear how his maternal grandfather, Magistrate Yang, will handle this situation.
She turned to look at Wu Qingfeng, only to see him nod at her and then reach out to touch the token with the character "Wu" engraved on it at his waist.
Lin Chang'er raised an eyebrow and gave him a look that said, "Are you sure?"
Wu Qingfeng nodded. His father was absurd in his domestic affairs, but he did have some merits in important matters.
In addition, the Marquis of Yunxing's family was originally a rival, so his father would probably be happy to give him a push.
Thinking of this, he pretended to be a passerby and said in a clear voice, "The magistrate of Su County is supposed to be a local official, yet he is harming the people. Are you all unwilling to rise up and continue to be at his mercy?"
Immediately, someone in the crowd shouted, "Investigate Magistrate Yang thoroughly!"
"Investigate Magistrate Yang thoroughly!"
"Investigate Magistrate Yang thoroughly!"
For a time, the air above both banks of the Suhuai River was filled with this sound.
Chen Shan waved his hand and said, "Gentlemen, although I am not an official in the court, I am familiar with the law and can easily write a complaint."
"Now that we've come across this, I might as well meddle in this trivial matter."
"Anyone who has been wronged may present their case to me, and I will be willing to draft a complaint and file it with the higher authorities."
"Good!" Someone in the crowd started clapping.
Then Chen Zhao and Lin Yanqing led them to write the complaint.
Lin Chang'er winked at Wu Qingfeng, "There are many people, go help them, and let Yan Qing write it for them!"
Wu Qingfeng nodded.
Lin Chang'er picked up Yun Sheng and handed him to Xiao Qi, then smiled at him and said, "Kid, you really are your grandfather's good grandson. Thanks to you, his career is over!"
"Tsk tsk twice, "So, it is the father's fault if the son is not taught. The cycle of heaven is inescapable and retribution is inevitable. Your maternal grandfather did not teach his daughter well, and this is his retribution."
Yun Sheng was still completely dazed. He just wanted to beat up that bastard, so why did his maternal grandfather get involved?
That bastard Yun Qing, when he was in the capital, he was only fit to drink his foot bath water. After running away from home for more than two years, he actually dared to lay a hand on his maternal grandfather.
That's impossible; that bastard couldn't possibly have such connections.
Therefore, Yun Sheng roared at Lin Chang'er, "Who exactly are you, you filthy bitch? You dare to act with Yun Qing to deceive your grandfather? Don't you want to die?"
"You think you can fool your grandpa like this? Let me tell you, your grandpa has been scared since he was a child... What are you doing? You're taking off my shoes, waaaaah..."
Lin Chang'er thought this brat was really noisy and his voice was unpleasant. This time she didn't want to go barefoot, so instead of taking off her own shoes, she endured the disgust, took off Yun Sheng's shoes, stuffed them into his mouth, and blocked his mouth.
Then he winked at Xiao Qi.
Fifteen minutes later, Yun Sheng was stripped naked and hung under the eaves of the covered bridge.
Anyone passing by the banks of the Suhuai River could see his disheveled appearance.
His close attendants were quite loyal; none of them dared to run away, and they were tied up together and bound to the bridgehead.
In Lin Chang'er's words, these people probably took after their master and didn't have much of a brain.
Because of the incident, Lin Chang'er had Liu Zi send Sister-in-law Gu and Sister-in-law Gu back home early.
He then had Liu Zi take Wu Qingfeng's token and mobilize nearby people to ensure the safety of Gu Da Sao and Gu Er Sao.
When Magistrate Yang arrived at the covered bridge after hearing the news, Yun Sheng and his entourage were covered in rotten egg yolk, as well as rotten cabbage and rotten green vegetables.
Magistrate Yang was trembling with rage. Standing under the bridge, he roared like a raging dragon, "Who did this?"
Seeing what had happened that morning, the vendors on the bridge packed up and went home early.
Even the vendors on both sides of the strait were very astute and stopped doing business before Magistrate Yang arrived.
These are the kind of people who pluck feathers from passing geese; they wouldn't dare to get in the way here.
Lin Chang'er and Wu Qingfeng's group spent a lot of money to book a teahouse on the banks of the Su Huai River. They were sitting in a private room, watching Magistrate Yang cursing and directing his men to release Yun Sheng.
However, Lin Chang'er did not want that bastard to be put down so quickly.
She looked at Wu Qingfeng, who smiled and walked to the window, taking the bow and arrows that Xiao Qi carried with her.
Yes, Xiao Qi didn't originally use a bow and arrow, but after following Lin Chang'er to Linshui Village and practicing archery with He Shan in the coastal defense team, she suddenly discovered that she had a great talent for this skill.
It now seems poised to surpass He Shan.
Therefore, nowadays, he almost always carries a bow and arrows with him when he goes out.
When I was at home, I also took on the responsibility of providing wild game for my family.
When it was his turn to rest, he would take the little goldfish and a few other little guys up the mountain to hunt.
Wu Qingfeng aimed his arrow at the lackey who was preparing to rescue Yun Sheng under the covered bridge.
Seemingly remembering something else, he stopped playing again.
He took the token engraved with the character "Wu" from his waist, hung it on the arrow, and the sound of the arrow piercing the air rang out, followed by a "thud".
At the same time, a man's scream came from under the covered bridge.
The instigator, however, put away his bow and arrows as if nothing had happened, turned around and smiled at Lin Chang'er...
