Chapter 211: Treat the person with his own medicine.
Jiang An's round eyes turned around and he asked again, "Does the governor think that the Marquis's lawsuit is not true, or..."
"Or is it because of An An's power that you have to decide that I and my classmates are not at fault?"
Isn’t this a life-threatening question?
The governor stood beside the little girl, not even daring to straighten his back, and immediately replied in a firm tone: "Of course the Marquis's complaint is not true!"
"You are from a prominent family, how can you use the word 'disrespect'?"
"I will go back to the government office and tear up the petition!"
The little girl grinned, her smile like a kitten that had stolen some fish, and it was obvious at first glance that she had no good intentions.
She moved to the armchair and sat down, swinging her feet and saying leisurely: "It looks like this~"
The governor immediately flattered him and agreed, "Of course!"
Zheng Yan, who was watching from the side, curled his lips, bumped his shoulder against his brother, and muttered: "Look at how conscious he is..."
Zheng Lu scolded in a low voice, "Behave yourself!"
Jiang An was sitting on the armchair, scratching his head, his eyes bright, and no one knew what he was thinking...
Anyone who knows her can immediately understand that this little girl is thinking of some bad idea again.
They were right. She was planning...
Thinking about how to deal with this crappy Marquis Zhongshun Mansion!
It was absolutely impossible for her to just beat up the governor who was sent here and let the matter go. She must give him a taste of his own medicine!
Jiang An called Huo Changming over and said something in his ear.
"I'm going right now!"
Leaving these words behind, the young master ran to the backyard without stopping...
The confused governor blinked his one intact eye and looked in the direction where the young warrior left, with a blank look in his eyes.
"Provincial Governor~"
=The little girl's voice was soft, but it made him feel a chill on his back.
The governor forced a smile and asked, "What do you want, young lady?"
Jiang An held his face with both hands, his thin eyebrows were wrinkled, and he looked aggrieved.
"First, Chen Jiaojiao from the Zhongshun Marquis's Mansion tried to beat someone up in the street, and then her brother led people to trespass into our villa and injured one of An An's classmates..."
"Now their father has sent someone to file a complaint with the government office, distorting the facts and asking the governor to come to Bieyuan to arrest people."
She blinked her round eyes and said sincerely, "Tell me, should I suffer this loss~"
It sounds like the Marquis Zhongshun Mansion is a bit too much!
The governor had a bad feeling in his heart, and he stammered back to the little girl, "No...I shouldn't."
At this point he was too exhausted to cry.
He was a third-rank official and the governor of a state, but he was controlled so easily by such a little girl!
Can he give any other answer to this stupid question?
Unless you don't want to walk out of the gate of the villa safely!
Jiang An nodded his head in agreement, "That's right~"
She showed her white and tender teeth, and her two little canine teeth were pointed, which was very cute.
"So, I will also file a complaint against the Marquis' Mansion to the Governor!"
Just at this time, Huo Changming had brought Qi Shanyuan from the backyard, and other students were also glancing inside through the door of the front hall.
They all had the same expression, all happy and full of admiration for Jiang An!
The little girl pulled open Yuanyuan's sleeve, revealing the scratch inside.
She said in a loud voice: "I want to sue Miss Chen Jiaojiao of the Marquis' Mansion for injuring someone in the street, and Mr. Chen Shanyu for trespassing and injuring my classmate..."
"Can the governor accept it?"
This time the governor of Peizhou really had to kneel down...
He thought that if he could please the little girl and let her vent her anger, as long as he walked out of this villa, it would be over. He could still make a fortune from the Marquis' Mansion based on the damage today. After all, they were the ones who caused him to this point...
But now!
If he agreed to this, he would have to bring people to break into the Marquis of Zhongshun's mansion to arrest people, and then he would have completely offended the mansion...
But if I don’t go...
The governor smiled awkwardly and clasped his hands together towards Jiang An, "Young lady, my dear ancestor!"
"Your humble servant... Your humble servant really..."
Jiang An kept smiling and clapped his hands in surprise, "No complaint yet, right?"
"I have dozens of classmates in the north, and everyone can write this petition!"
When the last word fell, the little girl's smile fell, and her delicate and pretty face became solemn and imposing.
The injustice in the students' hearts was aroused by her words, and one after another they raised their hands, "I can write!"
"I can do it too!"
"I can..."
"..."
Why can the Marquis' Mansion, which has done so many evil things, write this petition!
Why should they be forced into shackles and hemp ropes by the yamen runners just because of a word from a powerful person?
Behind Jiang An was the afterglow of the setting sun and the raised right hands of the students. She stood in the warm color, looking at the dazed governor of Peizhou with dark eyes.
She recited the Southern Merchant Law word for word, "Anyone who injures someone and sees blood but does not report it, or who disrupts the court or suppresses litigation, shall be punished upon reporting it!"
The governor was frightened and took a step back, moving away from Jiang An.
As a provincial governor, he was very familiar with this short sentence...
Today they are accusing him of wounding someone in the Marquis's Mansion. If he ignores them, or tries to make a big deal out of a small matter, or secretly releases the prisoners from the prison, this little girl can go to Kyoto and report him in the court!
Once it comes to court, according to the laws of Nan Shang, this is a capital crime!
No one ever mentions this law, just like a book that is never read and thrown in a corner where no one cares.
Ordinary people and common people are not destined to appear before His Majesty to file a complaint; the powerful are used to using their power to oppress others and simply disdain to abide by the law...
But today he happened to meet such a freak!
The governor gave a bitter smile. He was now like a carp that had taken the bait, unable to swallow or spit it out - he was doomed!
If this matter is not accepted, he will be sentenced to death if Prime Minister Xie reports him in court in the future. If he offends the Marquis' Mansion, the worst that can happen is that he will have an uneasy life in the future.
After the storm has passed, he will give more money and be transferred from Peizhou, and the Marquis's Mansion will not be able to extend its influence to other territories!
In just a short while, he weighed the pros and cons, put on an expression of a hero ready to die, and saluted Jiang An.
His words were full of righteousness, "As the chief official of Peizhou, I must be fair and strict, and will never do anything that violates the law!"
The little girl approached him and patted his shoulder calmly, "Da Yi!"
The governor felt wronged, but he didn't say anything...
Before he could say another word of flattery, Jiang An quickly turned around and told Zheng Yan and the others to do their work.
Those who need to wake up the bailiffs should wake up, those who need to write the petition should write it, and those hemp ropes and handcuffs... if they are broken, prepare new ones quickly!
Even the governor's official uniform was straightened out and his official hat was put back on his head.
"An'an..."
The teacher called his pupil over, stroked her head, and told her, "Be careful in everything, don't take it lightly."
Jiang An nodded obediently and patted his chest, "Master, don't worry!"
