Chương 56: End to your ambitions

Xianwu gazed at the Magistrate, Han Linghe, and asked him why he didn't want to summon Landlord Zhuye.

"You need to bring an official order from the Minister of Revenue regarding Landlord Zhuye's summon. Only then, I'll pass an order from here to proceed with the cases against him," Han Linghe said and picked up the cherry from the bowl.

"Then, why is Han Linghe given this position of magistrate if he cannot do his job well? The Minister of Revenue has no role in this matter," Xianwu asserted.

Han Linghe threw the seed of the cherry into another bowl. "Are you newly appointed in this work? Don't you know I cannot summon any influential landlord unless I get the order from Minister Wang?" he questioned Xianwu in a displeased tone. "Leave before I've to kick you out," Han Linghe said and asked the servant to bring more cherries for him.
