*This article contains spoilers. In EP7 of the Chinese TV series "Peach Blossom: A Contract Marriage that Brings Fortune," Xu Qingjia is shown being nearly beaten by the people of the West District.
Xu Qingjia, unable to bear the sight of the high-ranking officials not agreeing with his speech against the tax increase that would cause hardship to the people, proposed to the people that they be given land to cultivate if the tax was abolished.
The officials who heard this agreed and decided to leave everything to Xu Qingjia. Xu Qingjia went to the West District to talk to the residents. The West District was the poorest and most destitute area, and the residents were very upset.
He was violent and hated the officials. As soon as he arrived in the West District, Xu Qingjia was almost attacked. Gao Zheng came to his rescue and nothing happened. However, Xu Qingjia did not want to use violence to resolve the situation.
He did not like the way Gao Zheng tried to do this, and Gao Zheng could not understand the way the good-natured Xu Qingjia thought. The next day, a large number of people gathered in front of the government office and caused a commotion.
Xu Qingjia, who had arrived, somehow managed to settle the matter, but the matter should have been handled by County Magistrate Zhu, who had gone to meet with someone from Yuchunlou on personal business.
