The Pampered Empress in a Matriarchal Society [Reborn]

40

The magistrate of Qingshan County is named Ou Xiangsong, a student of Yue Huaqing. When the previous emperor was alive, Yue Huaqing recommended this person, which made her the magistrate. Ou Xiangsong was originally from Qingshan County, and he did not make any achievements after becoming the county magistrate. The leader today is the younger sister of Ou Xiangsong's favorite servant, named Lv Ling.

This person relied on Ou Xiangsong's power to act as an accomplice in Qingshan County, robbing men and even causing deaths. However, because Ou Xiangsong was the county magistrate, the people had no place to complain, which further encouraged Lv Ling's arrogance and made her more arrogant.

Ye Jitang looked at the news Han Shu had found, slammed the memorial on the table, and snorted coldly, "I'm afraid Qingshan County is where Yue Huaqing makes money."

Han Shu said, "Your Majesty, what are your plans?"

"I want to see what Yue Huaqing will do if her money is cut off."

Late at night, many people in the posthouse had already gone to bed. An angry Ou Xiangsong led the yamen runners in the county government to the posthouse. Ou Xiangsong stood outside the posthouse, raised her hand, and the yamen runners behind her came forward and opened the door roughly, alarming the manager of the posthouse.

Duan Hui hurriedly came out of the room in a coat, and happened to bump into Ou Xiangsong who came in. She hurriedly bowed her luggage and said, "I have seen the county magistrate. I wonder what the county magistrate has come to do late at night?"

Duan Hui said, and carefully glanced upstairs, fearing that the noise would scare the person upstairs.

But at this late night, even with a torch, it was impossible to see her expression clearly.

Ou Xiangsong asked coldly, "Is there anyone staying in your inn today?"

"No, no."

"No?" Ou Xiangsong looked at Duan Hui with poisonous eyes, "Duan Hui, do you know how serious a crime it is to deceive this county magistrate!"

Duan Hui hurriedly said, "I dare not, sir, there is really no suspicious person in this inn."

"Come here, search for this county magistrate! This county magistrate wants to see what kind of person can kill innocent people within this county magistrate's jurisdiction, and even have the audacity to place the bodies outside the county government office. Search!"

"Yes!"

The bailiffs filed in, and suddenly the lights in the inn were on. The noisy footsteps broke the quiet night. Ou Xiangsong sat on the chair brought by his men. She looked at Duan Hui in front of her. When she thought of the servant of the mansion crying in front of her, she wished she could pull the murderer out and kill him to make her little beauty happy.

"My Lord, County Magistrate, this is not possible, this is not possible!"

Duan Hui wanted to stop them, but she was just one person, how could she stop them? She was also arrested by the people around Ou Xiangsong. Seeing that those people were about to go up to the second floor, Duan Hui was sweating profusely. This was really a death sentence for her. She

originally thought that as long as she sent that person away, everything would be fine, but she didn't expect that in just half a day, the County Magistrate actually brought people to the post house to search for people.

"Go up and take a look."

The bailiffs downstairs walked upstairs, but they retreated after only two steps. They looked at the person standing there vigilantly with knives in their hands. One of them said, "Who are you!" "
