Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "Bah! Bah! Bah! Bah!"

    The people were immediately furious. These thieves were so mad that they dared to burn the entire county¡¯s life-saving food!

    Xu Yang, Zhang Dawu and others were sprayed beyond recognition, but they did not speak.

    "Don't say anything. It seems that the great master really did not accuse them wrongly!" The citizens no longer had any doubts at this time. They vomited until there was nothing left to vomit, so they picked up the vegetables and dirt from the ground, took off their rotten shoes, and pointed at them  throw it out.

    'Snapped!  Snapped!  Snapped!  Snapped!  ¡¯

    Xu Yang, Zhang Dawu and others were beaten to pieces, but they still just cried and didn't speak.

    Seeing that they were no longer human, the officials beat the gongs hard to stop them and almost even took off their pants.

    Then the officials took this group of people, walked around Yaqian Street, and hurried back to the Yamen.

    It¡¯s not that they dare to be perfunctory, but the firepower of the masses is too fierce.  The targeted attack at Shenmingting was okay before, but after walking around the streets and alleys became moving targets, the police officers were frequently accidentally injured. They were attacked by rotten eggs and rotten rice soup after taking only a few steps. Who can withstand this?

    ????????????????? But it¡¯s just changed from ¡®traveling with the shackles¡¯ to ¡®displaying the shackles to the public¡¯.

    The officials divided them into two groups and locked them under the eight-character wall.

    In the next month, this group of arsonists will spend their time here, no matter the weather, rain or shine.

    ??~~

    Kunshan County government issued a mortgage for the house.

    Wu Chengen handed a list to Xu Wei, looking a little embarrassed.

    "The results of the house raid are not optimistic."

    "Oh?" Xu Wenchang was leaning on the kang bed and was too lazy to get up, so he used his toes to pick up the flyer Wu Chengen placed on the bed, and then brought it to him with his legs.

    Wu Chengen turned a blind eye to this, obviously he had seen more exciting things.

    "So few?" Xu Wei was a little surprised.  Fortunately, Wu Chengen followed him, otherwise he would have had to shout that someone was corrupt.

    "That's right. The five families together don't have 300 shi of food. They don't have much money, and the land deeds for the fields and houses haven't been found." Xu Wei sat down at the table depressedly and said, "Obviously, he was prepared to escape in advance."

    "Well, that's true." Xu Wei thought it was right, although usually a monk can't escape from the temple if he runs away.  But the Xu family's slaves are different. They still have Huating as their base camp.

    As he said that, he rolled the list into a ball, threw it back to Wu Chengen and said, "Then we can only ask Inspector Lin for help to recover the county's losses."

    "Do what you can." Wu Chengen curled his lips, hesitated for a moment, then picked up the paper ball, flattened it and put it away.

    "If you don't believe me, let's make a bet. If he helps recover the loss, you can finish writing that chapter for me." Xu Wei asked with a smile: "The emperor of Chechi State is good at teaching and suppressing Buddha. This is interesting. I like it so much."

    "I didn't insinuate the late emperor!" Wu Chengen glared.

    "No, no, absolutely not. What we are talking about is a foreign matter and has nothing to do with the emperor of the country." Xu Wei hurriedly coaxed his beloved writer and said: "I just want to see the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism.  In the end, it¡¯s finally done, right?¡±

    ¡°I didn¡¯t insinuate the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism!¡± Wu Chengen said angrily.

    "Okay, no." Xu Wei sighed helplessly.

    The two of them were talking when they saw Yu Meng, the gatekeeper, running in to report: "Su Songxun and Lin Yingyuan are here with a message! Since they don't dare to neglect, they have asked the messenger to wait at the Moon Gate!"

    "So fast?" Wu Cheng'en couldn't help being surprised, and quickly found Xu Wei's shoes from the ground of the kang bunk, and asked him to put them on and escape.

    ¡° Let outsiders see him being so reckless in an important place, it will affect the official reputation of his employer.

    Then Mr. Wu straightened his clothes and hurried out to greet him.

    ??~~

    When Wu Chengen came out of the Moon Gate, he saw a man wearing a blue shirt with a regimental collar and a double-winged official scarf standing there with an impatient face.

    Although the other party was just a scribe, he did not dare to be careless and hurriedly bowed and saluted, saying that he would like to greet the official.

    There is no way, the other party is a personal attendant of the patrol censor, so I really can¡¯t afford to offend him.

    Although the rank of the patrol censor is not high, he is the same as the magistrate of the seventh rank.  But the power is so great that it is completely different.

    Because he is an imperial envoy patrolling the sky!  All ministers, prefectures, prefectures, and county officials under the vassal will accept his inspection.  Whenever mistakes are found, major matters will be reported and minor matters will be decided.  No grass grows wherever he goes Oh no, he is invincible, even with the governor, he can compete with him.

    At first, in order to prevent excessive expansion of his authority, Emperor Taizu strictly stipulated that the censorship should be held for one year, be awarded only seven grades, and only be allowed to travel on donkeys, with no more than four attendants.

    You think, you are an official who came over on a donkey to inspect???What kind of dignity is there?  Naturally, it¡¯s not good to pretend to be Boyi too much.

    Emperor Taizu even stipulated that when state and county officials received the censor, they were not allowed to grovel or make extravagant displays, and were only given basic writing and ink, firewood and grain.

    And we must strictly abide by the meal standard of four dishes and one soup, and even emphasize not eating goose

    All these are very detailed and are written in the "Inspection Etiquette".

    But as we all know, although rules are meant to be followed, they are ultimately meant to be broken.

    The power of the censor is so great that it can be said that he has the official hat of the officials.  Naturally, every state or county he visited had to do everything possible to please him.

    The imperial court stipulated that only donkeys were allowed to ride on patrol, so the county would just prepare eight large sedan chairs and full ceremonial guards.

    The imperial court stipulated that the number of patrol attendants should not exceed four, so the county would just arrange for escorts.

    As long as the counties are connected seamlessly, the patrol censor will always have a decent appearance.

    This is still a scene in public and subject to public supervision.  Not to mention how the magistrate groveled and flattered him in every possible way during private meetings

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡­

    Lin Xunjian was also in charge of Suzhou and Songjiang, the two most prosperous prefectures in the world, so one can imagine his arrogance.

    Wu Cheng'en heard that last month, Lin's Hospital in Changshu, because the county was a little negligent in its reception, opened the door and let the people report and expose the county's illegal activities.

    The whole county was in a state of uproar. In the end, the county magistrate had to kneel down and apologize, and Lin Xunjian let him go.

    Faced with such a person, how could Wu Chengen dare to show any slightness?  Even his personal followers would never dare to offend him.

    ??~~

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? The clerk was also very arrogant. When he saw an old man wearing a cloth robe, he didn't return the courtesy and said through his nostrils: "Is your county magistrate Zhao here?"

    "My eldest gentleman has been living on the embankment of Wusong River for a while, and has never been in the Yamen." Wu Cheng'en hurriedly replied respectfully, and then politely invited: "Please come in and serve tea. I will report to the eldest gentleman now."

    "He's not here, why should I go in?" The clerk shook his head and said, "My hospital has arrived at the pier. You should quickly arrange for guards and sedans to pick him up."

    "Yes." Wu Chengen responded hurriedly.

    ps. Sorry everyone, this chapter is not easy to write. The key is to check some information. It was delayed. It was delayed.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
