This time, there are quite a lot of talents who have been promoted to the top.

Xiao He sent a student whom he valued more.

It’s called——Chen Xijin.

He is a student accepted by Xiao He.

Chen Xijin comes from a poor family, but he is smart, hardworking and studious.

Taken seriously by Xiao He.

Accepted as a student.

Of course, Chen Xijin himself is not simple. Historically, he had a nickname called - the Governor of Xiqiao.

Chen Xijin's original name was Jin, with the courtesy name of Ximu and the nickname of Xiqiao. He served as the prefect of Duyun Prefecture and Yichang Prefecture, and was known as the"Xiqiao Prefect". He was famous for his political reputation, profound knowledge, and rich writings. He could be called a great scholar of his generation.

But now he can only be regarded as a young boy.

He is only twenty-five years old, still very young.

Xiao He valued Chen Xijin very much, he was extremely intelligent and knowledgeable.

All he lacked was an opportunity.

This time, Xiao He decided to give him a chance to practice more.

Better not to disappoint him.

Otherwise, his face will be dull.

After all, these are his students.

One glory and all glory.

If one loses, both will suffer.

Chen Xijin has been smart and eager to learn since he was a child, and he has learned a lot and has a strong memory. In the twenty-fourth year of Jiaqing's reign, he taught under the banner of Huangqi during the Imperial Examination. He stayed in the capital to study as an official, and was encouraged by Wang Tingzhen in his studies.

Chen Xijin was 35 years old. He became the magistrate of Longli County in Guizhou Province by teaching and began to make a name for himself.

He was quick in thinking and clear in his judgment of cases. He showed extraordinary ability in handling government affairs when he became an official for the first time.

Whenever he encounters a civil lawsuit, he always carefully analyzes the merits of the case and never decides the case in a confused manner or disregards human life.

Once, a murder occurred in Longli. Shoe prints of"nailed shoes" were found at the scene.

At this time, someone accused a certain citizen of having a grudge against the deceased and found"nailed shoes" hidden in his home.

The officials arrested the suspect and tortured him to force him to confess.

This man found it difficult to defend himself and refused to admit the fact of committing the crime.

Chen Xi was promoted to the Tang Dynasty to investigate the case. He always felt that there was something fishy about the case. After carefully checking the shoe prints, he found that his"spiked shoes" did not match the shoe marks left at the murder scene, and he was determined to get to the bottom of it.

On this day, Chen Xijin led the government officials, Chu Zuo and others to the cemetery to open the coffin and conduct an autopsy. They found that among the onlookers, there was a person wearing"nailed shoes" who was peeking and acting suspiciously.

Chen Xijin immediately ordered his arrest and interrogation. After checking the shoe prints, it was found that the shoe prints on his feet were exactly the same as those at the crime scene.

After careful interrogation and in the face of irrefutable evidence, the criminal finally confessed the facts of the murder. Thus avoiding an injustice.

Not only that, from the fourth to ninth years of Yongzheng, there were many Miao peasant uprisings, and it was not until the early years of Qianlong that autonomy was implemented.

Qianlong issued a decree to the emperor:"The Miao people's lawsuits should be based on Miao customs and not on laws and regulations." In order to strengthen feudal rule, the Qing government implemented the policy of"returning land to locals" in ethnic minority areas such as Yunnan and Guizhou.

The hereditary chieftains were abolished and administrative regions such as prefectures, departments, prefectures, and counties were established.

Soon, Chen Xi was transferred to Puding County as magistrate. Puding is located at the border of Yunnan and Guizhou, where Miao people live together and the folk customs are rough.

Chen Xijin deeply understood the sentiments of the people and made every effort to get rid of stereotypes and bad habits and change folk customs. He was not afraid of violence and resolutely eradicated the local tyrants and evil gentry, so that the people could live in peace. The local tyrants in the county took advantage of the old custom of gathering people to dominate and set up a leader called"Niu Cong".

Whenever a"thief" is caught, he is not sent to the government for investigation, but is executed by burning him.

There was a"niu Cong" who, in order to vent his personal anger and rely on his power, falsely accused good people of being"robbers" and burned three people in a row. The government was afraid that he was a local snake, so they could only let it go, and the people were even more silent.

After Chen Xijin found out the facts, he resolutely brought him to justice. From then on,"Niu Cong" no longer dared to commit suicide and burn corpses without permission, and the people celebrated with their foreheads on their foreheads.

Guizhou is a province where many ethnic groups live together. Under the rule of the Qing Dynasty, working people of all ethnic groups were enslaved and exploited by court officials, Han landlords and leaders of their own ethnic groups, and lived in extreme poverty.

Due to the incompetence of the ruling class, the accumulation of corruption and the annexation of large amounts of land, the number of refugees increased dramatically, and hungry people demanding food and armed riots continued to occur in various places. Some officials, landowners and leaders of ethnic minorities often provoke ethnic disputes for their own selfish interests, so armed fights and vendettas often occur between ethnic groups and regions.

Whenever there is a prison battle, Chen Xijin always observes deeply and handles cases according to circumstances, never taking bribes and bending the law to prey on the people.

When he was the magistrate of Kaitai County in Guizhou Province, the cultist Jiang Changhua gathered people to harass Liping and deceived the people with his monstrous words. The fooled people did not know the truth and followed him one after another, causing disturbance and endangering public security.

Chen Xijin's command was determined and calmed down in time. The leaders were severely punished, and those who threatened to follow were taught justice, advised to renounce their religion, and all were released without any further investigation. They were highly praised by the people.

Yun Province travels to Guizhou Province and asks for help in arresting the members of the"rebellious party" Wang Shilin who are lurking in Guizhou. After Chen Xijin received the document, he caught all of his"rebellious parties" by surprise.

However, after interrogation, it was found that the crime was not extremely heinous. Please give me a lighter sentence.

Chen Xijin has served in your province for 17 years and has never killed innocent people indiscriminately in order to seek credit and reward. He successively served as magistrate of Jinping and Yongcong counties, magistrate of Renhuai Tongzhi, magistrate of Guangshun prefecture, and magistrate of Duyun.

He is always conscientious in his work, diligent in government affairs, and has made great contributions to the country.
