Don't make trouble, let's build infrastructure!

At noon, the bright sunshine pierced through the chill and sprinkled on the bustling street market, as if adding a bit of warmth to it.

"clang--"

"Perform official duties, pay attention to avoiding."

The sound of the gong was heard from afar, and the businessmen and shoppers in the market turned around one after another, consciously giving way.

A group of yamen servants walked across the road made by the crowd without turning their eyes, and headed towards the North City where the dignitaries lived.

"What happened?"

"I heard that the price of fried cotton-padded clothes was issued by the Procuratorate yesterday. Could it be related to this?"

It was the first time that the yamen servants went out on the street in such a high-profile manner. Many people who were originally at home also poked their heads out and asked about the source of the excitement.

But those yamen servants looked condensed, each of them looked like the king of Hades, no one dared to step forward to ask, and those who were more courageous only dared to fall far behind them, trying to find out the destination of this team of yamen servants.

Entering Beicheng District, they circled around in such a ostentatious way, and finally stopped at the door of Lin's house.

"Open the door!" The yamen servant didn't stop for a moment, calling the door directly.

The concierge ran out impatiently, was startled when he saw the battle outside, and said timidly, "Master, this is the Fu'an county lord's mansion, you..."

"Is Young Master Lin here? Let's look for him." The leader said humanely.

"Yes, yes." The porter responded.

"Get someone." The leader stopped talking, and in the chaos mixed with cursing and women's cries, Lin Ya, the young master of the Lin family, was restrained by both arms of the yamen guards and escorted out.

"It's the young master of the Lin family."

"That dandy who robs women in the street?"

"It was him. Later, he was beaten up by that girl's elder brother. It was useless."

"What's he doing again?"

On the street corner not far away, many curious people gathered. They were very familiar with many deeds of this young master of the Lin family, and they talked a lot.

Among them were servants sent by other big families to inquire about the situation. After finding out the situation, they stepped back and rushed back to the mansion to report.

The prelude to arresting Lin Ya was long, but after the arrest, the team of yamen guards changed their previous high-profile style and used the fastest speed and took the shortest route to escort Lin Ya all the way back to the governor's yamen.

——This is the person Mr. Tong wants.

"Has he been caught?" Tong Ran sipped his tea and asked Sang Le who came in to report.

"Yes, Lin Ya has been arrested and brought to justice." Sang Le handed over his hands and reported.

"Did everyone in the city see it?" Tong Ran asked again.

"I see, according to your instructions, they went around the city before arresting people. Master You also asked them to bring a gong, and beat it all the way as if welcoming relatives, attracting many people to watch!" Sang Le road.

"Good job." Tong Ran nodded.

The Lin family is the home of the head of Fu'an County. Master Lin died in a battle in the frontier three years ago. In recognition of his achievements, the court not only rewarded him with money, but also gave Lin's parents and daughters the status and salary of the county head, so that their family can live worry free.

The person who speculated on the cotton-padded clothes this time was related to the Lin family. After Song Gui's interrogation, the reason why he dared to do so was that he had already encouraged the young master of the Lin family, that is, the younger brother of the county master of Fu'an, to accomplice him and support him.

Now that the principal culprit has been captured, the person behind the scenes cannot escape responsibility.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of catching Lin Ya, Tong Ran caused a disturbance in the city, just to beat those rich and powerful, so as not to commit crimes against the wind.I believe they already know all about the arrest of the young master of the Lin family.

However, Tong Ran had a headache.

Although this Lin Ya was an accomplice, he was arrested before he could do anything, and it is really hard to punish him severely.

But if the punishment is not heavy, it is difficult to play the role of beating.

This is how to do?

"Zaizai, what should brother do?" Tong Ran held the little tiger under his armpit and held it up in front of him.

"Wow!" The little tiger kicked its hind legs and called out inexplicably.

After the little tiger woke up yesterday, Tong Ran hadn't had time to interrogate it, nor had she thought about how to ask it, so she put it on hold for now.But Tong Ran observed carefully for most of the day, and found that the little tiger was indeed too smart sometimes, and he didn't look like a tiger at all. He was really deceived by its cute appearance before.

"Wow!" Tong Ranxue cried out from the little tiger, baring his teeth at it.

The little tiger was taken aback for a moment, and then roared back: "Wow!" Then showed two short and sharp fangs.

Tong Ran was amused by it, put it on his lap, and stroked its fur.

At this time, someone came to report: "My lord, the Lord of Fu'an county is asking to see you."

Fuan?Tong Ran stopped touching the tiger's hand, did he come to intercede?It's too fast, I haven't figured out how to punish her brother yet.

Tong Ran didn't really want to see her, and raised her hand to refuse, but the yamen servant who heard the report said again: "Miss Chu is also outside."

Chu Shuang is here too?

Tong Ran raised her eyebrows. Chu Shuang was directly involved in the storage and distribution of cotton clothes. Although she only provided assistance on the sidelines, she should understand the seriousness of this matter.

Knowing the seriousness, but still accompanying Fu An?

Is this for a friend, or is there another hidden secret?

Tong Ran reconsidered the matter of the county magistrate of Fu'an.

After pondering for a moment, he said, "Let them in."

Tong Ran sat behind the desk, let the little tiger lie on his lap, and waited for Fu An and Chu Shuang to come in.

The sound of footsteps outside the door came gradually. The little tiger was lying peacefully on his stomach, but when he heard the sound of footsteps, he immediately stood up and jumped onto the desk.It sat on the edge of the desk, with its back facing Tong Ran, its small tail hanging down naturally, wagging at will.

"Master Tong." After entering the door, Chu Shuang blessed Fushen, then stepped back to the side, as if she didn't intend to speak.

"Kowtow to Master Tong." The county magistrate of Fu'an stood in the middle and saluted with blessings.

"The county master doesn't need to be too polite. If he came to intercede, Tong doesn't intend to waste his time, and invites the county master back." Tong Ran said.

Fu'an was dressed in fine clothes and a complete set of rings, which was very suitable for the status of the county head.Although she straightened her head after saluting, she didn't look directly at Tong Ran, but lowered her eyes to the desk in front of him, her posture was very respectful.

"My lord misunderstood." Fu'an County Chief said, "The little girl didn't come to plead for mercy. If I want to put it simply and straightforwardly, it should be...to make trouble."

Added insult to injury?

Tong Ran thought about it.

I heard that when Lin Ya was taken away, his mother cried terribly, but Fu An, the younger sister, rushed to make trouble?The relationship between this family does not seem to be bad.

"Your Excellency may not know that after my father's death, the family only relied on the pension issued by the imperial court that day and the salary of my county lord to support me. My younger brother was naughty since he was a child, and he was doted on by his mother. Now he has grown into a child." The dandy who is not afraid of the earth and the ground, fights cocks and dogs all day long. Although he does not commit any big crimes or evils, he also keeps making small troubles.

"The little girl wanted to discipline her, but she couldn't do it because of her mother's protection. Today, the little girl invited the family law, and I respectfully ask the adults to punish the younger brother severely, so that he can repent." After Fu An finished speaking, he clapped his hands twice, and everyone outside A servant from the Lin family bowed in, holding a dark wooden box.

Fu An stepped forward to open the box, took out a black ruler from inside, and said: "My father used this ruler to punish his younger brother since he was a child. He is most afraid of this."

Fu An still lowered her eyes and didn't look directly at Tong Ran. There was no emotion on her face, as if the younger brother she was talking about was a stranger she didn't know.

"Wow!"

Tong Ran hugged the little tiger into his arms, stroking its fur habitually while thinking.

Tong Ran knew a little about Lin Ya's dandyism. To put it simply, small disasters kept happening, but they hadn't turned into big disasters yet, but it might happen at some point, and it was necessary to teach him a lesson early.

As for whether Fu'an really wanted to punish her younger brother when she fell into trouble, or retreated to save her younger brother, Tong Ran thought it was both.She hoped that Lin Ya would learn a lesson and cause less trouble in the future, but she was also worried that Tong Ran would strike too hard and kill her younger brother.

It seems that she has seen her intention to shake the mountain and kill the chicken to make an example to the monkey.

"I understand." Tong Ran said calmly, "You can keep the ruler. The county magistrate understands righteousness, and Tong Ran admires it."

Fu An was obviously relieved, his tense back relaxed a little, he bowed his head and said, "My lord praises you, that little girl will leave first, and won't disturb your business."

After Fu An saluted, he retreated resolutely, and Chu Shuang was also blessed, and left after him, without saying a word from the beginning to the end.

The ruler was presented to Tong Ran's table together with the wooden box. Tong Ran gestured twice, then handed it to Sang Le and said, "Gu Lan arranged for two groups of people to build fire kangs for those who have no strong labor and those who are disabled. Ya sent to one of the teams, and if they couldn't build a kang, they would do some dirty work around the corner, and asked You Yang to send someone to supervise the work, and if he didn't obey, he would be punished."

Sang Le thought of the embarrassment of the Lin family dude being punished by the family law because he didn't do a good job, and he almost laughed out loud. do it."

Sang Le exited with the ruler and wooden box, and only Tong Ran and the little tiger were left in the study.

The little tiger jumped onto the desk, raised its tail, and shook it.It patrolled around the desk, as if it was patrolling its own territory.After looking around, it turned around, only to find that Tong Ran was looking at him with folded arms, with a playful look on his face.

"Zai Zai." Tong Ran smiled and said, "Can you understand me?"

The little tiger's heart beat faster, and Tong Ran's tone of voice was completely different from usual. He always called himself "brother" in front of the tiger, and he always spoke with pampering.But the tone of his words was the same as when he spoke to Sang Le and Fu An just now, and he even changed his name to "I", as if he was not talking to a tiger, but to a person.

He found out?

The little tiger's heartbeat was getting faster and faster, and all kinds of thoughts were spinning in his head. Where did he show his flaws, which made him suddenly start to doubt?

"Wow?" The little tiger tilted his head and blinked his big eyes, as if he didn't understand Tong Ran's meaning.

If it had been like this from the beginning, Tong Ran would have been deceived, but the little boy was obviously taken aback just now, it must have understood what he said.

"Don't worry." With a smile on his face, Tong Ran approached the little tiger who was pretending to be confused, and said in a low voice, "As long as you admit it obediently and be a good tiger, I won't tell others, including Chu Jun."
