The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space Chapter 2917: Mind Your Conduct (Part 1)

According to the criminal law, Cao Junfei sentenced the Pang father and son to thirty lashes and detained them, confiscating all their properties, without giving them a chance to send out any messages.

Pang Zhong, seeing Cao Junfei acting so decisively, was initially afraid and then angry: "Lord Cao, don’t forget, we have connections in Beijing, you..."

"You can address them when you meet them in Beijing," Cao Junfei stated with a wave of his hand, instructing the officials to take them away.

Pang Shaoqian, still untreated, had become extremely weak.

Pang Zhong, deeply concerned for his son, upon seeing the bloodied condition, couldn’t attend to anything else and urgently called for medical treatment.

"Don’t worry." Yang Mingxuan sneered coldly, "He won’t die."

Upon hearing this, Cao Junfei disregarded him further and ordered them to be thrown into the jail.

The common folks, upon witnessing this result, cried tears of joy. There would no longer be the tyranny of the Pang great young master in Quanzhou City, and some even set off firecrackers in celebration.

In the back courtyard of the County Governor’s Office.

"To have such a troublemaker within Lord Cao’s jurisdiction is truly disgraceful." Yang Ruxin gazed at Cao Junfei, "It’s also disappointing."

"Madam’s criticism is justified." Cao Junfei nodded vigorously, "However, this official has underlying difficulties."

The Pang family’s backer is Cai Meng, the Right Imperial Censor, holding a second-rank official position, even though he is an official only in name, he is a close minister of the Emperor.

"Imperial Censor Cai is always just and strict, surely he will discern right from wrong." Yang Ruxin looked at Cao Junfei, "As for how to report to the Emperor, that’s for you to handle. I won’t get involved, but I hope you will act wisely for your own sake." She concluded and left the County Governor’s Office with Gu Qingheng.

Hei Dou saw his parents go out but turned back, and his dark eyes fixed on Cao Junfei: "Those two thousand mu of land in the South Suburb..."

Cao Junfei’s hairs stood on end immediately. What does this child mean? He indeed enclosed two thousand mu of land in the South Suburb, but it wasn’t his initiative. How did he know? Surely he is talking nonsense, and quickly calmed himself down.

"And about Little Taohong... Little Haoran..."

Cao Junfei’s expression changed; Little Taohong is his kept mistress who bore him a son named Cao Haoran. But very few knew about this. This child...

Hei Dou didn’t elaborate, simply mentioned and stopped, but his smile was quite mysterious: "Lord Cao comes from humble beginnings, but with his abilities, reached today’s status. I believe you’re a wise man; previously, you did nothing and my parents didn’t pursue it, after all, like my mother said, too clear water has no fish. However, in the future, I hope you’ll act wisely and not be too corrupt, otherwise..." He left the rest unspoken, letting him imagine, then strollingly walked away with hands at his back.

Cao Junfei felt disconcerted. How old is this kid anyway? He, a dignified fourth-ranked official, was lectured like this? Rubbing his nose, though it seems quite reasonable, perhaps he truly needs to do something; otherwise, once exposed, the consequences may not be much better than the Pang family’s.

"Madam, will he handle it impartially?" Yang Mingxuan turned to glance at the County Governor’s Office, clearly worried.

"As long as he’s not foolish, he will surely report truthfully." Yang Ruxin smiled, "Otherwise, the one in trouble can only be him." The Pang family caused too much commotion, attracting not only a third-rank madam but also a fourth-ranked General, who are favored by the Imperial Family, thus, the matter cannot be resolved as effortlessly as before.
