Chapter 254 Clean up some titles(2/2)
"It is said that Liao Zhong asked Chen Qiyu not to seal the Fuwang Shop at that time, but Chen Qiyu didn't listen to him, so the prefect Liao Zhong asked him for various problems. He has not been very happy in the past two years."
Chen Sihai nodded and continued to ask: "Is there anything else?"
"Yes." Zhao Zhu also nodded and said, "The Henan prefect Liao Zhong has a bad reputation. King Fu has something to do with the people. Anyone involved in land will be awarded to the Fu Mansion."
"It is already well known to the local people. The prefect Liao Zhong and Prince Fu's mansion are wearing pairs of pants."
"At the same time, on the ground of Luoyang over the years, Liao Zhong also plundered merchants and gentry. It is said that when collecting taxes, it can be used to make a big bucket, and sometimes it can even cost one and a half dollars, which is deeply hated by the local people."
When Chen Sihai heard this, he frowned. Is this Liao Zhong so hateful?
Chen Sihai didn't care about colluding with King Fu. Instead, he used a big fight to collect taxes, which made Chen Sihai very dissatisfied.
Although using big fights has become a routine in the officialdom, it is a bit too much to get one and a half dollars.
The so-called big fight is actually very simple. It is a bucket used to weigh when collecting taxes. Normally, it should be a bucket of standard weight.
Some people will make a particularly large bucket for you. It takes more than half of the standard bucket of food to fill it with. In addition, it will cost some damage to hand it over to the court, so the rest will naturally be put into his pocket.
"This Lord Liao Zhongliao has taken four concubines in three years. Every time he says he doesn't have a big deal, but whoever gives less gifts will be in trouble when he turns back." Zhao Zhu continued.
"It's really a way to be an official." Chen Sihai sighed.
In fact, these are ordinary methods in the officialdom, and they are definitely not just Liao Zhong, but they just depend on the depth of use.
Some people have a bad heart and a strong heart, so they will be even more ruthless. Some people are not that hard heart, nor are they so ruthless. In addition, they are timid, so they will not be too ruthless.
Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty once said, "Three years of Qing Dynasty magistrate, 100,000 snowflakes."
Although there is no such sentence yet, everyone knows that local officials are very able to make money.
They made part of the money and put it into their pockets, while the other part was given to Shangguan and his backer in the court, otherwise no one would have protected them.
This is a very huge chain of interests.
Chen Sihai was wondering what to do and to what extent he should do?
Now he finally understood what the teacher meant, and this matter was really tricky. If everything was done according to what he did and thought, then he might be called a cruel official. Maybe he would not leave his name in history, but would be infamous for thousands of years.
At this time, Chen Sihai thought of Chen Qiyu. He didn't know what his family was thinking, but he could see him first.
So Chen Sihai said, "When will your next inspection be done?"
Zhao Zhu quickly stepped forward and replied, "Sir, it's tomorrow."
Nodded gently, Chen Sihai said, "You go and bring news to Chen Qiyu and make an appointment for a meeting place, and say we want to meet him."
"Yes, sir." Zhao Zhu agreed and said respectfully.
"Okay, you go." Chen Shihai nodded and said.
After Zhao Zhu left, Chen Sihai leaned on the chair.
I haven't moved yet, but I already feel the pressure. I hope everything goes well.
The next morning, the Luoyang County Magistrate's Office.
Chen Qiyu got up early one morning, exercised his muscles and bones, then washed and started to use breakfast.
This is something he has to do every day, and it is already very familiar to Chen Qiyu.
At this time, Master Li Fang walked in from outside, and he went straight to Chen Qiyu and said, "Sir, Zhao Zhu is here."
When Chen Qiyu heard Zhao Zhu's name, he put down the chopsticks in his hand.
This Tongyi from Tongzhengsi has been here several times, and it is not a new thing for Chen Qiyu.
But when he saw the face of Master Li Fang, this was not a matter-free face.
"Is there anything wrong?" Chen Qiyu asked looking at Li Fang.
"Sir, Zhao Zhu asked to see you, saying that someone asked him to bring a message to you." Li Fang said quickly, with a little worried in his tone.
In fact, since the secret message was sent away, Li Fang's heart has been uneasy.
He reached out and put down the chopsticks in his hand. Chen Qiyu smiled and said, "Then let him come in."
Li Fang nodded, turned around and walked out, and brought Zhao Zhu in.
"Zhao Zhu, the ninth rank of Tongzhengsi, Tongyi, please see the master." After seeing Chen Qiyu, Zhao Zhu bowed and bowed.
Chen Qiyu waved his hand and said with a smile: "Someone asked you to bring a message to me? Who wants to say what?"
