Chapter 1631: Chapter 1631: The County Magistrate Arrests Soone
The governnt official master led the governnt officials into the village, causing the entire place to be in an uproar. The commotion had already alerted the village head, who hurried over eagerly. Before reaching the Xie Residence, he heard the villagers discussing…
“Oh my! Incredible, the Great Master is actually here to arrest Madam Xie!”
“Is this Great Master out of his mind? Doesn’t he know about Madam Xie’s connection with Great General Situ?”
“This Great Master is very young, never seen him before, probably newly appointed, doesn’t understand a thing and is just stubborn.”
“Now being used as a pawn by Old Lady Mo, he surely won’t escape misfortune, provoking Great General Situ, forget about being even a seventh rank low-ranking official.”
The villagers stood by the roadside, whispering among themselves while shaking their heads and sighing.
The village head was startled upon hearing this. The county magistrate had been to Mo Family Village, should know Madam Xie, and be aware of her connection with General Situ, so why arrest her?
As the village head of Mo Family Village, if anything happens to Madam Xie here, the General surely won’t have a good impression of him. If his son enters politics in the future, he definitely won’t receive the General’s protection. The village head was secretly anxious.
“What are you all talking about?” The village head halted his steps, standing beside the villagers, suddenly asking.
The villagers hadn’t noticed the village head’s arrival. Suddenly hearing his voice startled them, and they turned their heads…
“Village head, you’re here?”
“Hmm! What were you talking about just now?”
“Isn’t it about Old Lady Mo, causing trouble again, and she actually went to the County Yan to accuse Madam Xie of murdering Mo Xiaoqiang? Now, County Magistrate has brought people to arrest her.”
“What? Again, it’s Old Lady Mo.” The village head furrowed his brow and couldn’t help but feel a bit annoyed. When will this old woman ever settle down?
“Village head, quickly go save Madam Xie. If this matter displeases the Great General and he punishes our village, what then?”
“Yes, yes, village head, quickly go save Madam Xie! If you delay, what if she’s taken away by the Great Master?”
This governnt official master ca with great montum, entering the village without greeting the village head, directly rushing to the Xie Residence to apprehend soone, showing how much he believed Old Lady Mo’s words.
Upon hearing this, the village head didn’t say much more, quickly turned and ran towards the Xie Residence, feeling extrely anxious. Today, Xuexue had gone to town and wasn’t in the village; otherwise, with her status, she would surely be able to put the county magistrate in his place.
Indeed, Xuexue is the War Prince’s woman, and regarding status, everyone in Moli Country knows it. When the county magistrate, a small seventh rank low-ranking official sees her, he would still have to kneel in greeting!
At the gate of the Xie Residence, the county magistrate had soone arrest Madam Xie, preparing to escort her to the County Town for interrogation.
At this mont, the village head rushed over urgently.
Looking up, the county magistrate was a completely unfamiliar face. It seed the previous county magistrate had been transferred, and this one was newly arrived. No wonder he dared to mobilize and co to Xie Residence to arrest soone; turns out ignorance is fearless.
“Great Master, Great Master, can’t arrest her! Can’t arrest her.” The village head suddenly jumped out, spreading his arms open, blocking the governnt official master’s horse.
The governnt official master sitting on his tall horse paused, surprised that in this remote small town, soone dared to block his way. With furrowed brows, he asked, “Who are you? Why are you blocking Great Master’s path?”
“Great Master, I am the village head of Mo Family Village.”
“Oh!”
The county magistrate responded indifferently. Logically, as he entered the village, he should have greeted the village head to show respect, but when Old Lady Mo made her complaint, she specifically ntioned the village head had long been colluding with Madam Xie.
Therefore, the county magistrate believed the village head’s words were untrustworthy. Thus, he didn’t bother greeting him, directly coming to arrest Madam Xie.
