Chapter 173

In the prison, the female family members of the He family sat blankly, looking at the entrance from time to time.

The He family had numerous descendants, and Mrs. Du had six brothers. These people married wives, took concubines, flourished, and gave birth to many children.

The girls of this generation are ranked 23rd.

Therefore, in addition to married daughters, there are more than a dozen daughters of the He family who are in prison, and usually they are spoiled regardless of the concubines.

The He family had a Mrs. Du, who took the whole family to ascend and crossed the class. The He family naturally attached great importance to the training of their daughters, and pointed to another Mrs. Du.

Who knows, instead of waiting for glory and wealth, he waited for the result of raiding his home and going to jail.

These delicate female relatives were as desperate as a thunderbolt from the blue, panicked and felt that the sky was falling.

Fortunately, Mrs. He was stable and comforted everyone.

Wait, wait, anxious for several days, "When will Auntie come to rescue us? How many days has it been?"

"It will come, as long as she knows the news, she will definitely come to rescue us, then, hum."

"I've never suffered like this before. I lived in such a crappy place for several days, and the food was not good. I'd go crazy if I stay locked up."

"We actually let us eat dry steamed buns. Is this what people eat? I still eat them."

Everyone kept complaining and yelling at the jailer, venting their fears and dissatisfaction.

When Mrs. He saw it in her eyes, she could only sigh silently, "Just be patient, I'll be able to go out soon."

They only talked about this topic tacitly and avoided talking about other things.

Although, the female relatives are concerned about the men in the family, even though they can't sleep at night.

The youngest girl in the He family tugged at her mother's sleeve with tears in her eyes, "Mother, I miss Dad, where has he gone? Why hasn't he come back?"

The prison was silent, the atmosphere was strange.

Mrs. He Liu looked bitter, she was not as innocent as the girls, "I will be back soon, very soon."

"How soon?"

"This..." Mrs. He Liu also wanted to know.

Just at this moment, the jailer brought the meal, and everyone didn't care about talking, so they all gathered around.

"I eat steamed buns again, but I don't eat them."

"I want to eat meat, braised pork."

"I want to eat grilled fish, hurry up and deliver it, otherwise, when my aunt comes, you will all be in bad luck."

In the past, they used to eat brocade clothes and jade food, eat delicious food from mountains and seas, and also pick and choose, and their voices were delicate.

How can bear to eat steamed bread with white flour every day, it is too tormenting.

A crisp voice sounded, "Yo, so majestic."

It was Mu Wanqing, who came after the jailer.

The female family members of the He family invariably looked at the girl who came out of the dark. She did not apply any makeup, but she was beautiful and unparalleled. Her eyebrows and eyes were picturesque and outstanding.

The fifth lady of the He family's eyes lit up, and she said gloatingly, "Qingping county magistrate, why are you here? You also did something wrong?"

I am unlucky, I wish others were even more unlucky.

Mu Wanqing's eyes fell on the two buckets of steaming food, and she raised her eyebrows, "White flour steamed buns, mung bean porridge, I didn't know the prisoners were treated so well, didn't they mean they had no money?"

This food is better than ordinary people. How can ordinary people eat this? Have never seen a white face.

At a glance, she knew that the female family members of the He family had received special care.

The two acquaintances also came out of the dark, Jiang Tongzhi looked embarrassed, "This...this..."

Miss Du said hello and did not allow anyone to humiliate the female family members of the He family.

The people below not only dare not humiliate, but also take special care of them.

No way, who would dare to offend Mrs. Du's family so easily? Even if you go to jail, you can turn over in minutes.

Mu Wanqing didn't embarrass him either, her eyes swept around, although it was a large prison, it was clean and tidy.

The dozens of cells here are only for the female family members of the He family, and the others do not know where they got it.

There are bedding and laundry in the cell, so the He family's female relatives look decent, not too embarrassed.

"What do everyone else eat?"

Jiang Tongzhi gave a wry smile, "Wowotou." It's the kind of coarse grain that poor people eat, wowotou mixed with wild vegetables, it's hard to swallow and stuck in the throat.

Mu Wanqing's expression was extremely serious, "If you change it, any prisoner will be treated equally."

Jail should be like jail.

"Yes." She gave an order, and took away all the chubby buns, and replaced them with black wowtou, which seemed to have no appetite.

He Shiwu suddenly exploded with anger, "Mu Wanqing, why do you care about us? Get out of the way."

She is the daughter of the He family who is so petite and petted. She usually has eyes above the top, and she doesn't look down on Mu Wanqing.

Mu Wanqing looked at the arrogant He family girl with cold brows, "What's the crime of being disrespectful to the county head?"

The maid the queen gave was the clearest, "Slap fifty."

The He family relied on Mrs. Du's support, no one in their eyes, and unscrupulousness, and they got into a catastrophe.

However, no lessons have been learned.

Yes, everyone is helping and respecting, and when you enter the prison, you can take special care, so naturally you won't feel that you are wrong.

Mu Wanqing's expression was light, "Drag out to execute."

The two guards immediately opened the cell and dragged the person out. The others of the He family rushed over to stop them, but who was the guard's opponent.

He Shifu cried in fright, "No no no, my aunt is the wife of the Du family, you can't treat me like this."

"Clap clap clap." Who told her about human feelings, and then said after a fight.

In a few moments, He Shifu's face was swollen into a pig's head, crying for his father and mother.

Fourth Mrs. He was so distressed, "County Lord, my child is young and ignorant, so please forgive her a lot."

Mu Wanqing stood with her hands behind her back, extremely arrogant, "You all know why you are locked here."

Mrs. He immediately screamed in grievances, "We were framed, county magistrate, please help us file a grievance."

Mu Wanqing sneered, "Your son He Bin took refuge in Xiwu and shot Du Shuai, you really don't know?"

He Bin is the eldest grandson of the He family. He has been focused on training since he was a child. He is the hope of the family and naturally gets a different look from Mrs. Du.

Mrs. He was flustered in her heart, but she had a righteous and awe-inspiring look on her face.

"Our He family is loyal and the in-laws of the Du family. What reason do we have to take refuge in Xiwu? If we think about it, we will know that it is impossible. Qingping County Lord, I don't know why our He family has offended you. You are so terrible. Your heart is too bad."

Mu Wanqing couldn't help but glance at her, "If there is a son, there must be a mother, and they are in the same blood. Don't worry, I have already informed the court of this..."

The He family's face turned blue, court?

Madam He lost all blood on her face and was terrified, "What did you say?"

She relies on Mrs. Du, no matter how much trouble she causes, it can always be settled in the Xiliang area.

She believed that Du Shuai would not make a big fuss about the matter, and would not sue the court.

After all, if the He family is not good, it means that Mrs. Du is not good, and naturally the three children she gave will not be good either.

Du Shaoxuan still has to inherit the Du family army and take over Xiliang, how can his mother be stained?

Xiliang will help conceal it from top to bottom.

However, she never expected to kill a Mu Wanqing halfway through.

Mu Wanqing has no interest in anyone, so she doesn't need to worry so much.

"What is the truth? I believe that Wuyiwei will investigate it clearly. I also believe that the emperor is a promising and wise man who can tell right from wrong."

Others don't know, but Mrs. He knows well that their family can't stand the investigation. "You...how can you?"

Mu Wanqing likes to watch the bad guy get mad but he can't do anything about her, "As the county head of the court, I have the responsibility to supervise the locality, and as a Daqi native, I have the obligation to kill the traitor."

She raised her eyebrows, "No one should cover up traitors, including Mrs. Du."

She seemed to suddenly remember something, "By the way, Mrs. Du wanted to save you just now, but she was scolded away by me. Don't count on her, it's useless."

Ho family:  …

Mrs. He didn't want to believe it was a fact, "It's impossible, Mr. Jiang, it's not true, is it? Why did the county magistrate of Qingping go to jail and threaten us?"

Jiang Tongzhi had already given up the treatment, "The county magistrate of Qingping is now the acting chief of the Xiliang area, holding the power of life and death."

"She's a woman..." Mrs. He exclaimed.

Jiang Tongzhi has always looked down on the He family. Although they are relatives, they are not close. "She is also the county head of Sanpin. In the whole of Xiliang, except for Du Shuai and his son, no one is of a higher rank than her. From the point of view of the official system, there is nothing wrong with her taking over Xiliang."

"Of course, she can still listen directly, and she can give the king a memorial at any time."

The He family trembled with despair on their faces.

It's over, the emperor knows.

Mu Wanqing said in a timely manner, "I heard that the emperor hated two kinds of people in his life the most, corrupt officials and traitors. The former still has a chance of survival, and the latter, the whole family will be killed, and neither will be kept."

After saying this, her eyes swept across everyone, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly.

"If you commit crimes and make meritorious deeds, you may be able to avoid death. Let's enjoy the last time slowly."

Then, she turned away.

Jiang Tongzhi retreated with him, and Mrs. He hurriedly stopped him, "Mr. Jiang, Lord Jiang, the head of Qingping County... disagree with the Du family?"

Jiang Tongzhi lowered his eyes, "Anyway, she's not afraid of the Du family."

Mrs. He's heart collapsed, "So, what she said is true?"

Jiang Tongzhi understood what Mu Wanqing meant, "Yes, Wuyiwei is coming soon. They have the right to investigate, inquire, and execute traitors."

As soon as these words came out, the family members of the He family were even more frightened, and their faces were as pale as paper.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the sixth lady of the He family to shout, "I want to see the county magistrate of Qingping, and I will fight for the crime and meritorious service."

Ignoring the anger of the others, she followed the jailer away.

With the first one, there will naturally be the second one, exposing and reporting on each other, just for meritorious service.

In order to survive, they said everything they should say, and said everything they shouldn't, and sold the He family completely.

The dirty things he had done in the past were turned over one by one.

Several spies were also involved, and these spies influenced Mrs. Du's decision through the hands of the He family.

Then, these were announced by Mu Wanqing, and the He family was completely nailed to death, and no one could save them.

The people suddenly realized, no wonder they copied the He family, and they copied it well.

Even with Mrs. Du's reputation not good, some people strongly suggested that Du Shuai divorce his wife.

When Mrs. Du found out, she spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted on the spot, becoming seriously ill.

When she finally recovered from her illness, she realized that Mu Wanqing had disposed of all the He family members, and the trial was held in front of the entire city.

Not to mention the men of the He family, they were all sent to the Qianfeng Camp as cannon fodder, and even if they came back alive, they would have to be exiled for 3,000 miles.

All the female relatives of the He family were punished, and all those who had done bad things were sent to reform through labor, and they did heavy physical work to atone for their sins.

Those who haven't done bad things can't be let go. These days, it's important that one person breaks the law, and the whole family sits together.

The premise that the misfortune cannot reach the wife and children is that the benefit cannot reach the wife and children.

Since he was protected by the He family, he would naturally be implicated as well.

At best, it's an easy job allocating points.

The people applauded and praised Mu Wanqing for being good, and Mu Wanqing's popularity rose again.

She is not afraid of power and speaks for the people, and she stands up for the people's grievances. No one thinks there is anything wrong with her trial.

In other words, it has been ignored by the common people intentionally or unintentionally. As long as it is beneficial to the common people, it doesn't matter whether she is a man or a woman.

It's not like haven't seen a woman headed home, so why can't a woman be an official?

In this way, Mu Wanqing stepped on the He family and passed the most difficult stage smoothly.

The matter of taking over the governor's office as a woman was successfully accepted by the public and was not rejected.

Of course, it is also inseparable from her secretly sending people to guide public opinion.

Mrs. Du fell ill again, and this time she was lingering on the bed and did not heal for a long time.

She took Du Shuai's hand and begged bitterly, "You can take your life back. If this continues, Xiliang will change his surname to Mu."

Du Shuai looked at her expressionlessly, "When the illness is cured, you can go to the Buddhist hall to lead the practice. Why does the family pray for the Du family and their children?"

If Mrs. Du was struck by thunder, what?
