Chapter 69: King

"Zhao Youzheng" is a wealth enthusiast. He stored all the gold and silver in the storeroom of the county government, opened all the boxes, and it was dazzling. Youxie carefully counted it again and registered it, and then used it to buy relief materials, repair and strengthen the and so on.
In just half a month, he had become famous. Only Suichang County under his jurisdiction does not collect much money from the people. If anyone is wronged, they just need to knock on the drums and do n’t need to pay bribes, and do n’t need to spend a lot of money to ask a teacher. Writing for you, the literary talent, the argument, is really Yang Yanzhenzao, Yun Xia is full of paper. Gradually, the literati of Suichang no longer stayed at home reading all day, but hovered at the entrance of the county gate, just to listen to the admiration of the county grandfather, and then sighed intoxicated while shaking his head. Read for ten years! "
What you have done now, one is to repay the debt, and the other is to protect yourself. Who told him to be unlucky and spread such a descendant? Because his price is very cost-effective and the demand is very huge, the grain merchants near Suichang came to negotiate with him one after another, from end to end.
On this day, Youyi finally managed to conclude a big sale. He was so hungry that he stuck his chest to his back, and quickly ordered his servant to dine. Because the people lived through hard times, he did not dare to waste extravagantly, and only let the cook fry a plate of pork liver, a plate of cabbage, and a cold fungus. He picked up the bowl and made a few quick sips. He was about to reach out to clamp a piece of pork liver, but he saw a tall figure suddenly appear in the open space opposite him.
The man was still wearing a mask, his eyes staring unpredictably at himself.
Why, how come again? The little man in my heart almost wanted to mourn, the muscles on his face shook, and the rice grains in his mouth spontaneously swallowed into the throat in shock, and then choked into the trachea unfortunately. want to cough overwhelmingly, there is a cricket but can only hold back, because he knows that once they show something different, the other person will immediately take away his soul.
Do not cough, never cough. His hand holding the chopsticks was shaking, the small throat knot was shaking constantly, and the big round eyes were rushing to tears, looking pitiful. Xiao Xiao, who was standing aside and waiting, was startled, and hurried over to inquire about the situation.
He wiped away his tears, rubbed his neck again, and said, "I'm fine, the kitchen has put too much pepper today, I'm not used to it."
"But sir, didn't you tell the chef to put more peppers? Yesterday, you thought that the vegetables he fried were too light, and ordered him to put some dried peppers in the boiled cabbage."
Xiaozhang immediately dismantled the station, making you both upset and flustered. He covered his throat with the palm of his hand, and said shortly, "It was indeed less than yesterday, but today it was too much. You turn back and tell him to let him weigh it, preferably no more, no more." Continue to tears.
If the captive is forced to resist coughing out, the taste is simply beyond words. You Xi wanted to hit the wall with her head, but she had to pretend to be spicy, but it didn't matter. Xiaoxiong poured him a cup of herbal tea and ran to the kitchen to talk. As soon as he walked on his front feet, the man's hind feet disappeared, and he didn't see any flaws.
I didn't even think about it. I immediately fell down on the chair and kept pounding my chest. Then I coughed, the corners of my eyes and nose were wet, and my eyes were full of tears and snot. When he finally coughed the rice grains in his trachea, he did not know that the man who had disappeared was still in the hall. He just disappeared, and instead sat next to a cricket, leaning his head and supporting his chin, staring at the other side momentarily.
Seeing you have finally calmed down, but did not dare to plan the rice, but let Xiaoxi change two big white steamed buns, and she was generally arrogant, and he finally laughed lowly.
As long as the mouth is grinned or slightly pursed, the dimples on both cheeks will be loosing. He opened his mouth to bite his head, and suddenly felt that the dimples were cold, as if a grain of snow seeds had fallen in during the winter, the touch was very real.
what? He was suspicious, but he felt nothing when he touched his hand, so he continued to bite his hoe, and after a few bites, he felt that the dimples were slightly cold, and there was no abnormality when he touched them. After several repetitions, he finally realized that he was wrong, looked around with vigilant eyes, and forced all the mental strength into his eyes.
The room was very clean, not even a ghost. Is it my illusion? Sometimes the body does feel cold and hot, which is why the internal fire is too dry. Thinking like this, he relaxed again and tore a piece of steamed bun to dip the juice of fried pork liver.
The man sitting next to him slumped his fingertips and smiled happily. After admiring the eating appearance of Xiaoxian County Magistrate, he did not leave, but went to the study to see what the other party would do in private. At this point the sun had set, and a yellow oil lamp was lit in the room. The wick seemed to be almost exhausted and was crackling.
"Master, slaves help you change a wick and add a little more oil, so as not to hurt your eyes." A beautiful lady with a beautiful appearance said quietly.
"It's okay to change a wick, but don't add kerosene and waste it. I will fall asleep soon." After you took all the property to buy food, you really don't have a little money in your hand. . He took out a book and read it slowly. Seeing that the maidservant always didn't leave and blinked at himself, he asked inexplicably, "Why, what's the matter?"
The maidservant rubbed her cramping eyes and went down dingy. Is this county grandfather understanding or confused? So obvious signals are not received?
It was true that the uncle could not receive it, but the tall man was deeply indifferent, and could not help humming, staring at the incomprehensible little Zhao county magistrate, suddenly laughing. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that the simple-minded Zhao Youzheng would be the one who had been treacherous and evil before. However, the life and death book clearly remembered that there would be no mistakes. Except for knowing the mistakes, it would be better to repair the dead sheep, but there is no more reasonable explanation.
It's just a change. Who never did one or two ridiculous things when he was young? Thinking about it this way, the man reached out and touched the head of Xiao County Magistrate.
Someone suddenly felt cold on top of his head, immediately put on his hat, read a few pages of books, took out a pot in the drawer, shake it out, and listened, and then went to sleep beautifully. Glancing at his "toy", the man inevitably laughed again, and gradually disappeared when he fell asleep.
The man appeared ten miles away from nothing, and he was followed by two prisoners also wearing masks. He whispered, "Is everything done?"
"It's done, the cracks in the beast's path have been blocked. Dare to ask the master, what should be done with those who have been born?"
"Let it be resolved after the condemnation." The man walked away as if to think of anything, "When he came to Lishui, let's see what officials in Lishui are doing."
The two prisoners bowed to their promises. First, they went to the residence of Wang Zhifu and found that he was carrying two beautiful women Bian-Xi-Pu-Feng, and the picture was unsightly. Then they went to the subordinate counties, and the county grandpas either drank Pleasure, or plotting to frame others, or hiding in the coffers to count money, are all greedy and vicious.
The three of them had looked at them one by one, and their eyes were getting colder, but Wang Yanluo seemed to think something, and the dark pupils smiled. One of the prisoners proposed to take a look at Suichang County, and he immediately denied, "No need to go. Ben Wang just came from there. In Lishui, only one of Zhao Youzheng's officials can be regarded as an example."
Seeing the master's evaluation of Zhao Youzhang so high, both prisoners were surprised, but they didn't dare to ask more, and disappeared step by step in the darkness.
---------
On this day, I have breakfast and are ready to go to my office. He habitually looked up at the sky, and found that the dark clouds in the air became thicker and thicker, as if he could reach them, and the thin dragon images shuttled in the clouds increased from dozens to hundreds, indicating that A natural disaster is coming soon.
To make matters worse, in addition to the dragon shadow, a plume of black smoke erupted from the ground, drilling into the bodies of pedestrians passing by. Some people knew that it was a plague, but it was caused by the wandering injustices. After the natural disaster, they wanted to have a large-scale plague.
Fortunately, in his mind, there were a myriad of knowledge systems, including traditional Chinese and western medicine, so he combined the essence of traditional Chinese medicine for thousands of years and quickly assembled a recipe for preventing diseases with good results. He declined the grain merchants who came to the interview today, and immediately went out to buy medicines, and within a few days welcomed a large number of drug dealers.
The people in Suichang County have become accustomed to the occasional cramping behavior of the grandfather of the county, just watching a lively conversation, just a few words.
On this day, I had a few drug dealers to inspect the goods. Just when I took a herbal medicine to the nose and sniffed, I heard a lingering and chaotic footsteps from outside, as if many people were trying to rush in. He walked to the window and looked at it, but it was Wang Fu who led a man dressed as an official and rushed in, followed by many guards with knives, and his aggressive expression showed that they were not good.
Wang Fu kicked the door open, cursed and said, "Come on, grandpa, I'll get off! Wuzhi County has something to do!" The parent officer of Longquan County in Wuzhi County, south of the city, has a very close relationship with Wang Zhifu, and the means are very cruel. hot. His daughter is now Wang Zhifu's second aunt and is quite favored. He is also very respectable in Lishui.
Everyone heard that it was him, and immediately said goodbye. Fortunately, Wang Fu came early. Otherwise, the medicine was really brought to Suichang, but Zhao Xianling was in trouble again. The Zhao County Decree offended Wang Zhifu, and the official career was over.
Youyi didn't invite the two to take a seat. He took a tea cup and took a sip. He was very relaxed. Because he had just received news from the starving dead ghost, the obituary of the three leaders of the Central and Central China had already entered the county seat and was on the way to the official concubine. However, he was relieved too early, only to see that the space next to him was twisted for a moment, and when he returned to normal, a tall man was sitting on it, his eyes were like a torch.
There was a shiver in his hand, and he almost fed tea into his nostrils, but fortunately he stopped at the last moment. He took a sip of tea slowly, then lowered the tea cup gently, consciously expressing calmness and elegance. He didn't know, however, that these days, someone knew the virtues in his private hands. He only sips when the tea is hot, and if the temperature is moderate, he always pours it up like a cow chews peony.
As soon as he came, he switched to being a cricket. The performance was so deliberate that he showed his deeds instead. The man wanted to laugh, but he reluctantly held it down. As soon as he turned his palm, he turned into a stack of official documents and sketched with Zhu's criticism, very comfortable.
He sighed without any trace, and then looked at Wuzhi County, "Master Wu, why did you come here today?"
Wuzhi County is also nonsense, with a strong and honest attitude, "Master Zhao, I heard that you raised 180,000 yuan of silver, and you are going to buy it a few days ago? I have a batch of food that I just want to sell, how about selling it to you?"
What grains are there in the grain depots of each county? Either these local officials resell to the grain merchants at high prices, or the clerks in the yamen take a bag and I take a bag, and the rest will be handed over to the court, and finally a confession will be given to the county. In the event of a disaster and a reduction in food production, there is nothing we can do about it. These are all unspoken rules in the officialdom. Youyi has learned from the memory of "Zhao Youyi" that naturally he will not agree. They are obviously selling, but in fact they are robbing, and they will give you a few bags of sand if you want to go to the silver, so that you have a hard time talking.
"Master Wu, I heard that the rats in the granary in Longquan County are starving. What do you sell for food?" Youyi said.
Wu Zhixian sneered, "My official said that selling food is for your face. If I want to, I will just let the people take the silver away. Zhao Youzhen, persuade you to know something. You have already registered your name with Wang Zhifu. If something goes wrong in the future, it will be too late to regret it. "
"Are you threatening me?" Youji frowned.
The man approving the official document also looked up, his eyes grim.
Inexplicably, Wuzhi County felt that his body was cold, and he clasped his hands and shoulders, and held up, "My official is telling you that he must not block the way of others. The only end result of those blocking stones is that they are removed and thrown away at will. If you do n’t buy this food, you can give it, but 180,000 yuan of silver must be given to me. If you are interested, I may be able to say a few words for you in the presence of Lord Wang, leaving a small life. Lord Deng of Changshan County, you know Isn't it the miserable one when he died! "
Deng Zhixian is also a loyal and upright person. Because he refused to share the same fate with Wang Zhifu, he was chopped to death by a mountain bandit when he returned to his home province, and his wife and daughter were also taken away. Now he does not know where he is. But thinking about it, the end is definitely more desolate than alive.
Some people knew that the local officials and the mountain bandits had been colluding, and naturally they could guess the true cause of death of Lord Deng. In the corner of his eye, Yu Guang glanced at the man suddenly standing up, walking to Wu Zhixian, staring down. His eyes were very penetrating, and even if he didn't show up, Wu Zhixian instinctively sensed the cold and fear.
"How many ice basins do you have in your house?" He clasped his arms and shivered.
There was a lot of goose bumps on the back of his hands and face, and his hair was upright, but he didn't know that he had been spotted by King Yan Luo, and he couldn't help but silence him in his heart. You said you didn't come early or late, but you came when King Yan Luo was watching me, didn't you try to die?
Youzhe was refreshed, but she didn't reveal anything on her face. She shook her head and said, "I didn't put an ice basin." At the same time, try to avoid touching the tall man's eyes.
Wu Zhixian seemed to be unbelievable. He stretched his neck and looked at the room with an uneasy expression. Wang Fu saw that he was dragging and going off topic, and quickly whispered, "Master Wu, Master Wang is still waiting for our letter. It's important to take the silver away first. You think, Prince Li is very popular, How many gifts do you need for a lifetime? If you ca n’t catch up, will the opportunity be taken away?

Wu Zhixian nodded and rubbed his arms before letting go of a hard word, but heard someone shouting, "Master, Beijing has sent an urgent letter, please take a look."
At this time, unlike modern times, traffic is very congested, and the population is seldom mobile. Often, earth-shattering events occur in one place, but they will not be known until months or six months later. If the magistrate intentionally conceals it, he will not even know it for a lifetime. It is for this reason that the emperor, the concubine, and the prince of the princes have died violently, and the five princes have ascended to the throne. It has been more than half a month before the news spread to Lishui. Of course, business people know it, but they dare not discuss the political affairs of the court, especially the replacement of the emperor.
Youyi immediately opened the envelope for quick reading. In addition to the obituary, the new emperor repeatedly urged all places to make preparations for flood prevention and drought resistance. This shows that it is far-sighted. He handed it to Wuzhi County, Xu Xu said, "Don't forget about my 180,000 silver. Lord Five ascended the throne, Prince Li violently, you still have to go back and find a new backer, so as not to be fart-under the stock People change. "
At first Wu Zhixian refused to believe it. He took a look at the document and almost fainted. Overnight, the emperor, the concubine and the prince, all died, and the five princes who didn't know anyone who ascended the throne. These senior officials in North Korea are not his confidants. Where can he dare to use them, of course, they must be replaced one by one. In other words, the DPRK and China are bound to usher in a major change. It is unknown whether this change will affect small counties, but it is always right to respond early.
Small sesame officials like Wu Zhixian do not have to worry too much, and a member of the party like Wang Zhifu should be cautious. They often stand in line. But it is bad that Wu Zhixian gave his daughter to Wang Zhifu to make a puppet, and Wang Zhifu is already a grasshopper on a rope. If Wang Zhifu planted it this time, Wuzhi County wouldn't even think of eating good fruit.
Wang Fu was in the same situation, so the two soon realized that the situation was critical, and the burnt farts usually ran out. The tall man followed closely and waited for the carriage to drive out of Suichang County.
A ray of black light hit the driving horse's fart-stock, they lifted their forefoot and rushed left and right, throwing the two people out of the car far away, and the guard lifted the person back, and found that one broke his leg and one broke. Waist and injuries were extremely serious.
Someone speculated that the two might be unlucky, and they felt relieved. They wrote down the news of "the emperor died, and the new emperor ascended the throne." He ordered the servant to post it, and detailed a form to prevent floods. The plague issue was settled, and responsibility was shared among the leaders.
It was learned that Wuzhi County had gone to Suichang, and the officials and grandfathers in several nearby counties secretly frowned, blaming themselves for failing to start early, and they were looking forward to Zhao County's unlucky order. However, the news of Zhao Xianling's derogation didn't come, but the obituary came first. Their patrons had one behind the other.
What the is this! Officials in the heart are bitter, but they still put up their spirits to arrange white urns, incense candles and other things, preparing to sacrifice the Emperor's Mausoleum. As for the flood prevention and drought prevention decree, they didn't seem to see it. On the first day, Youyi did what he did. In the remaining days, he was busy buying materials and consolidating the dyke. In the end, there were 100,000 cash left in reserve.
Unconsciously, another month has passed, and when I look back, the ghostly King Yan Luo has not been here for seventeen or eighteen days. Has it completely dispelled my suspicion? Even if you have no time to be happy, you listen to the starving dead ghost, "Sir, the younger one has to escape from the wind, and this is goodbye to you. You see the dark clouds in the sky and the mist on the ground, and they are almost connected. Right in front of it, many people will have to die by then, and Ghost Rush will be popular and lock injustices. In case of being caught, you must hurry away. "
"Isn't it just for a rebirth?" Hesitated.
"The little old man didn't have any virtue in his life, and he wouldn't be able to enter humanity even if he was born. It is better to stay in the world. The younger goes, take care of you, adult."
At this moment, there is no one who has the heart to think about something else, and immediately went to the warehouse to count the relief materials such as grain, medicinal materials, and silver. It was just when he was busy that Wang Fu's classmates came to the county to make trouble, saying that he wanted to return to work on a business trip. One day's wages are deducted for one day's leave. This was a rule of the court. They continued to take leave for dozens of days without a lot of flowers. I thought that when Wang Fu returned, he would definitely regain control and make up for everyone's losses. Wang Fu's unlucky ghost broke his waist and was paralyzed in bed.
What's more disturbing is: Prince Li's violent death, the new emperor ascended the throne, and Wang Zhifu's pagoda collapsed. It is unknown whether he can continue to be an official in the future. How can he protect these cronies? Until then, all the people realized what was called "the master of running water, the county magistrate of Tieda." The county magistrate couldn't get used to Wang Fu, and said he gave him a tadpole; without manpower, he could hire dozens of strong men in a flash. Asking him to fight is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg.
They regretted it, kneeling outside the gate and kept hoeing to confess. I have a book that is too busy. How can I use this group of snobbish people who only know to eat casual meals, and immediately write that the appointment book covers the official seal, distribute it, and then make a public announcement.
Now the people of Suichang have been used to going to the public list every day, and the county magistrate will know everything, no matter how big or small, and have given a name to this practice, which is called government transparency. Although I do n’t know if it ’s really transparent, the common people can know which policies are beneficial to them, and those that need them to be timely guarded or implemented.
But in two months, the law and order in Suichang County has changed from chaos to order, and the mental outlook of ordinary people has changed. Their love for Zhao Xianling has surpassed their respect for the gods and Buddhas. If anyone dares to say that Zhao Xianling is not good, they will be attacked immediately.
Right now, in addition to the great harm to the people, Zhao County Magistrates has taken away all the arrests, servitudes, and public officials who have been oppressed on their heads. What is so popular? Taking off that layer of official skin, these people are nothing. Who would be afraid that he would fail? In the sound of gongs and drums, everyone swarmed, smashing stones, spitting, throwing rotten leaves, and waiting for all the people to cry, and ran away. 2k novel reading network
