Chapter two hundred and ninety sixth

Shi Tou finally couldn't take Zhen'er to the club. Early in the morning, he rode a servant to Jingyang Mansion on a horse to find Longwei Mansion to send a secret memorial to the young master.

The strong wind blew over the face, and the stone's open clothes were blown like a flag. The sun had just risen, and the stone wanted to drive as much as possible to enter Jingyang Mansion tomorrow at You hour. There were many cars and horses on the avenue, mostly for business trips to Fuluo County. Compared to when I went to Fuluo County a few days ago, the official road had obviously recovered its popularity and everything was developing in a good direction.

Shi Tou had no doubt about Jiang Anyi's ability. Five years ago, he met Jiang Anyi in Xinghualing, Linyang County. Shi Tou was always by his side. He knew clearly that the young master won the top scholar, governed the Li family, sent Beimo, Dou Wen's son, and suppressed bandits in Qizhou. What is Xiao Xiao Fuluo County? Shi Tou is full of confidence in the young master.

Mr. Zhang often said that "a good minister chooses a master". Shi Tou is full of pride. He recognized the young master when he was ten years old. He said that Mr. Zhang is the one who chose him later. Thinking of Mr. Zhang, Shi Tou couldn't help but think of Zhen'er. He broke his promise and did not take her to the club show. Zhen'er would definitely be unhappy. I don't know if Mr. Zhang explained to Zhen'er.

This time I went to Jingyang Mansion and took time to bring some gifts to Zhen'er, otherwise those big eyes would stare at her and look like she was about to cry. Shi Tou felt ache in her heart and didn't dare to think about it. Her heart felt wild, with a little expectation and a little sweetness. The boy's melancholy was like the fragrance of flowers, gentle and charming, sweet and resentful.

At the end of the Chen Dynasty, Fuluo County Government was promoted to the hall again. After Jiang Anyi was sitting upright in the table with his official robe, everyone turned their awesome eyes to the "silver-faced god" behind him.

There were still crowds of people watching the fun outside the lobby. They looked into the lobby with their heads and minds. Jiang Anyi's ears were full of curiosity and expectation for the "Silver-faced God".

Wang Xingren sorted out the paper and looked through the thick paper. Jiang Anyi was angry and had more than twenty lives alone. As for bullying men and women, there were countless people who robbed money and property. The slap of the case was slapped, and everyone in the lobby was in the throat. The county magistrate got angry again. I don’t know who should be unlucky today.

Zhang Keji's light cough came from behind him. Jiang Anyi suppressed the fire and asked in a deep voice: "Why are there so many cases in Fuluo County so far? I wonder if his ex-Mr. Yan knows how to deal with it?"

Everyone lowered their heads, and no one said anything. Everyone knew it. Lord Yan and Xu Mingyuan were wearing pairs of pants. When they encountered complaints, they drove them out. Everyone in the county government office had to have more or less benefit from the Xu family. They would not stand up for the ordinary people. They wanted to complain, and it was difficult for them to find someone who wrote the complaint.

Yesterday, the handover was completed, and Yan Kaichen officially left his post. Today, he was promoted to the hall, and Yan Kaichen was not present. Jiang Anyi turned his eyes to Wang Xingren and asked, "Mr. Wang, I am really a little confused. Why don't these victims sue for Lord Yan's post?"

The matter is not his own. Wang Xingren was a little glad that he was not his own right or responsibility for the case. He owed his body and said, "It is the responsibility of the county magistrate to go to the court to ask for the case, and the subordinates are not very clear about it."

Qin Zixiong has watched the actions of County Magistrate Jiang in the past few days. He was not sure about the intention of County Magistrate Xin, so he drove away Xu Mingyuan and was very pleased. He recalled the drug dealer to be rebuilt, beat Zhang Putian to death, detained Su Guoliang, and seized the loss-making money with ruthless methods, but he occupied Xu Mingyuan's house. He heard that he had also taken over two singers from Xu Mingyuan. Is this person who ruled for the people or eliminated dissident bullies?

Jiang Anyi's eyes swept over Qin Zixiong, and Qin Zixiong stood up and said, "Sir, it's better to let these plaintiffs come to court, and you'll know it just by asking."

"Take a plaintiff."

With a shout, more than a hundred people rushed into the lobby, squeezed the lobby without a place to stay. Jiang Anyi frowned, picked up the paper and recited ten names, and the others were taken outside the hall to await trial. Looking at the people kneeling in the hall, Jiang Anyi asked, "You have been wronged for several years, why did you come to complain today?"

The answer is that no one can write the paper for the lawsuit, and the yamen will not accept it; he was threatened by Xu Mingyuan and did not dare to sue it; Grandpa Yan ruled that it was a filthy lawsuit, and all the spearheads were pointed at Yan Kaichen. It was because he covered up and condoned Xu Mingyuan, so that what happened today was happening today.

There are rules for officials to protect each other in the officialdom, and they protect immediate benefits. Although Yan Kaichen retired, he is still a member of the officialdom. If he is liquidated, it will inevitably affect the interests of a large group of people. The most important thing is to break the rules and become the public enemy of the officialdom. His eyes are focused on Jiang Anyi, with hopes, expectations, inquiries, sarcasm, and watching operas.

"Hahahahaha", a burst of resentful laughter rolled past the lobby like thunder. Jiang Anyi said sternly: "The Master said: Political means righteousness. If the son is righteous, who dares to be wrong? The wise man once said that the prince violated the law and committed the same crime as the common people. Yan Kaichen, as the county magistrate, took care of the law and openly covered up bullies and slaughtered the people. Since entering the officialdom, Jiang has been called the "official slut". He is known for not knowing the current affairs and cannot tolerate such corrupt officials in his eyes."

As he said that, Jiang Anyi took out a green tag from the sign bucket and threw it down, "Lin Qiang, take someone to the East Flower Hall to invite Lord Yan to the hall for questions." Theoretically speaking, although Yan Kaichen retired, his official position was still there, and the Ministry of Personnel could punish him. Jiang Anyi had no right to arrest him, so he used the word "please".

The New County Magistrate did not give the old County Magistrate any face, shocking everyone in the lobby. A trace of excitement flashed in Liu Zhuan's eyes, and he stood up first and said, "The public heart is touching. Liu Jiusi is willing to assist the adults and make decisions for the people."

Wang Xingren and Qin Zixiong also stood up and bowed and said, "We are willing to assist the Lord and make decisions for the people."

Shangguan made a statement, and the clerks and yamen runners in the lobby were either intentional or forced to helpless, and they all knelt down and said, "We are willing to follow the Lord."

The voice came out of the lobby. When the people watching the fun understood what was going on, they all knelt down on the ground and cries rang: "Master Qingtian."

Lin Qiang did not find Yan Kaichen. According to his two servants, after the handover yesterday, Yan Kaichen came back and said he was asking for a friend to drink, but never came back. After running away, Jiang Anyi sneered, the monk could run away and the temple could not run away. Yan Kaichen had to calculate the accounts left by Yan Kaichen in Fuluo County.

For three consecutive days, Jiang Anyi went to the hall to ask about the case. Most of the murders were done by Xu Mingyuan and his subordinates. He issued a sea arrest document to arrest Xu Mingyuan and his subordinates, and informed the people, offering a reward to inquire about the whereabouts of Xu Mingyuan and his subordinates. Secondly, the women who forcibly plundered by the Xu family and ordered their families to collect them and pay the silver at their discretion. Thirdly, the medicinal materials and property occupied by the Xu family will be compensated with the property copied by the Xu family as long as there is real evidence.

The money was not enough to pay, Jiang Anyi auctioned Xu Mingyuan's real estate, land, shops and other real estate. The Xu family was bought by Huang Dongquan for 3,000 taels and sold a total of more than 15,000 taels of silver with other properties, and Jiang Anyi paid it all in a clean manner.

Yan Kaichen's guilt was confirmed one by one. Jiang Anyi ordered people to collect it and sent the yamen runners to the prefecture. It was not his business to deal with Yan Kaichen. Xu Mingyuan's accomplices arrested many of them. Those who had murder cases were imprisoned in prison. Jiang Anyi had a team of those who were imprisoned by Jiang Anyi, who was imprisoned in a team. The yamen runners watched the construction of water conservancy, the construction of city walls, and the paving roads. Jiang Anyi instructed not to torture them, and they could take them back to the jail if they didn't work hard.

Qin Zixiong's doubts disappeared. The magistrate of Jiang was indeed doing things for the people in a solid manner. He only managed more than 20,000 taels of money, and no penny was put into his pocket. After dispelling his doubts, Qin Zixiong regained his enthusiasm for work and washed away the reputation of being a "Qin alcoholic". In recent years, the county has been full of troubles, and he is so busy that he is not touching the ground.

The people in the county government received a salary of 5 taels for four months, which is higher than the annual salary when Yan Kaichen was the county magistrate. Many people think that following the county magistrate Jiang to do things in a solid manner, there are more than ten taels of silver this year, which is enough to support the family.

When Wang Xingren and Liu Jiusi were playing chess, he mentioned thoughtfully, how should the county magistrate spend so much money, how should the taxes be completed at the end of the year be completed. Liu Jiusi laughed and said, "Brother Wang, you probably don't know this county magistrate. He has a pair of golden hands. The perfume of his family alone will cost millions. Will the county magistrate Jiang still worry about money? In half a year, the county magistrate Jiang will definitely come up with a way. Let's play chess and don't worry about him."

Jiang Anyi arranged Huang Dongquan in the official room and stuffed the servants he brought into each department of the county government. This is called "sand mixing". In order to facilitate management and prevent others from deceiving him, the new county magistrate would use his confidants to fill his eyes with his confidants.

Next is "Walk to the Wharf", visiting the officials and gentry families in the county. There is a Sima of Fuluo County, and a Juren is an official in another place. One of them is a great man and a rich family. Both families are extremely polite about the visit of the magistrate of Jiang County. The tyrants of Jiang's tyrants shocked many people. The head of the family warned the children of the family not to violate the law and discipline. There is no mercy to talk about when they hit the tyrant.

After meeting officials and gentry, they invited the townsmen in various townships, and then met with rich people. There were many wealthy businessmen in Fuluo County, and they joined forces to invite Jiang Anyi to drink. Jiang Anyi did not show off, but went there happily. During the banquet, Jiang Anyi smiled and talked about his family doing business. When everyone heard that Pingshan bamboo art, the burning knife and perfume actually had shares in the Jiang family, they felt very friendly. It turned out that the adults were also traveling with them. Sure enough, the magistrate of Jiang County promised all the merchants that as long as they operated and paid taxes legally, the county government would protect them and no one was allowed to come to collect protection fees.

The third step is to "respecte articles". There are nine scholars and twenty-seven children in Fuluo County, and not many scholars. Jiang Anyi followed Liu Zhubu to the county school. Seeing that the houses of the county school were dilapidated, the county school’s teaching and instructor came to see the ceremony. When Ren’s teaching officer saw the Jiang County Magistrate, he began to complain, saying that Yan County Magistrate withdrew the money and food of the county school.

Seeing a few people in the classroom, Jiang Anyi interrupted him and said, "Don't say anything about complaining. The county will arrange for people to repair the county school. Starting this month, the county school will pay the full amount of money and grain. In addition, I will also give the county school a public expense of ten taels of silver every year. Ren Master is a well-reader of poetry and books. I will not teach you what to do."

Teacher Ren smiled and nodded repeatedly, "Thank you, Lord Jiang. I will do my best to do my duty and do my duty."

Jiang Anyi entered the classroom, asked a few questions about the students' homework, and frowned and said, "County School should teach quickly. Lord Liu might as well take the time to come to class. If we have time, we will come to the county school to teach. The county school welcomes all scholars to listen to the lectures, and there is no limit on their identity. Next year is the year of school. I hope that there will be more scholars in the county."

Teacher Ren was overjoyed and said, "Mr. Jiang is willing to come to teach in person. This is a happy event that cannot be obtained. As the Sanyuan and the First One, the lower-ranking officials also want to listen to the teachings of the master." This flattery made Jiang Anyi feel comfortable. At the warm invitation of Teacher Ren, the magistrate of Jiang County gave his first class at the county school.

The rules of Fuluo County gradually settled, and Jiang Anyi became more and more famous in the minds of the people. Just as Jiang Anyi was full of confidence and was preparing to start the reform of "tax-to-one", a storm came quietly.
