On the other side, at the county government of Anping County.
Xiao Yi had been quite busy with official duties lately. The Ministry of Justice was already not a department for idle people, and being a County Magistrate required handling numerous daily trivial matters.
A family's lost cow, or a wedding banquet to be hosted, and the day for a street parade that needed to be reported to the county government — such trivialities were countless. Although these matters didn't require much from Xiao Yi's mind, he still needed to review and stamp them.
For these reasons, he found himself handling official duties at the county government until late at night almost every day.
More than ten days ago, he had submitted a petition to the court, requesting that someone be dispatched to replace Sun Youcai as County Magistrate of Anping County. Yesterday, he received a document from the Ministry of Personnel stating that a replacement had been decided and would arrive in the next couple of days.
