When he was about to take office, the fat man was very nervous, and he kept asking questions on the way, but Nanfeng had never been in contact with the official family before, and his knowledge was very limited, and he couldn't say anything. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Because he doesn't know the situation and officialdom rules of Yuxian County, Nanfeng can't speculate what situation he will encounter after taking office, and he can't think of countermeasures in advance if he doesn't understand the situation, but he knows one thing, as the so-called new officials take office with three fires, the two of them have just arrived, and a cadre of the county government will inevitably be bullied.

The two of them stayed overnight, four days later rushed to the boundary of Yuxian County, it was evening at this time, there were people on the street to enjoy the shade, the south wind came over to talk with those people, there are nineteen towns in this Yu County, each town has more than ten to twenty villages, here is located in the southwest border of the Western Wei Dynasty, the people mostly live by farming, because the north and west are backed by mountains, and the south is by water, there are some people who live by fishing and hunting.

The land here is quite fertile, and there is a lot of grain, but the people live very hard, and the root cause has nothing to do with natural disasters, they are all man-made disasters, one is the heavy taxes and miscellaneous taxes, the second is the official family to ask for exploitation, and the third is the robbery of bandits and bandits.

Entering the boundary of Yuxian is the evening of the same day, rushing to the county seat of Yuxian is the evening of the next day, the county seat is less than ten miles, not very big but not very small, because it is located in the border, there are city walls built around the city.

Originally, the city gate had not been closed, but seeing the arrival of the two, the officers and soldiers guarding the city gate slowly pushed the city gate, and the south wind shouted loudly, and the officers and soldiers guarding the gate stopped closing the door and waited for the two to arrive.

There were four officers and soldiers guarding the city, all armed with spears, and one of them lazily said to them, "You are late, the city gate will be closed, come again tomorrow." ”

Nanfeng knew the sophistication of human feelings, and knew that the officers and soldiers were extorting money, so he took the silver out of his bosom, and asked before handing it over, "Is it really past the time to close the door?"

"It's long gone. The older officer and soldier said casually.

Nanfeng raised his hand to signal the fat man not to speak, and instead handed over the silver, and the officer and soldier took it, waved his hand and let him go.

Nanfeng led the horse into the city, and after entering the city, he helped the fat man off his horse, turned around and walked towards the officers and soldiers who had just picked him up Yinliang.

The officers and soldiers didn't know why, and frowned at each other.

Nanfeng walked in front of everyone, took out the official register from his bosom, and said to everyone with his fat fingers, "This is the newly appointed Yuxian County Magistrate Ji. ”

The officers and soldiers guarding the city were not frightened, and raised their hands at the fat man in the distance, "I've seen my lord." ”

The officers and soldiers who had taken the money before raised their hands and pointed north, "Go straight north, and you will be the county office." After that, he muttered quietly, "Another one." ”

"What's your name?" asked the officer and soldier who was taking the money.

The officer and soldier did not answer, but glanced at Nanfeng, and then reluctantly took out the piece of broken silver from his bosom and handed it to Nanfeng casually.

Nanfeng took the money, took advantage of the situation, twisted the officer's arm, and kicked him to the ground.

The officer and soldier were furious, screaming and trying to get up, but Nanfeng walked over and kicked him again, knocked him down again, rubbed his left foot, took the spear in his hand, and pierced the officer and soldier's thigh.

He used all his strength this time, and the spear pierced directly through the thighs of the officers and soldiers, and there was no earth for two feet.

The other three wanted to come to help, but when they heard the screams, they instantly retreated in fright.

Nanfeng looked around at the three of them, and his words were calm, "The dereliction of duty in guarding the city gate, knowing that the hour has passed, and letting people into the city, this person must be a thief and a ghost, leave him alive first, and then behead him to show the public when Lord Ji passes the hall." ”

The three of them knew that Nanfeng was taking the opportunity to stand up, and there was nothing they could do, who let themselves be at fault in front of them, and they were caught in their hands.

Nanfeng pointed to one of the officers and soldiers, "You go to the county government and call someone to come to greet Lord Ji, if you don't arrive before dark, you will see that my family can't afford it." ”

At this time, the officers and soldiers who were poked in the thigh were still screaming, and the three did not dare to disobey the orders of the south wind, so they turned around and were about to run away.

"Go to one, the other two stay. Nanfeng shouted to the two officers and soldiers who wanted to slip away.

The two officers and soldiers could only stay where they were, and did not dare to go over to save the shouting man, and bowed their heads timidly, panicking.

"When the hour of closing the door has passed, you have not closed the door, and if you are so derelict in your duties, you will inevitably go to prison. Nanfeng said coldly.

When the two officers and soldiers heard this, they fell to their knees in fright and repeatedly asked for mercy.

"Lord Ji is here, I'm just a martial artist sent by the imperial concubine to protect him. Nanfeng pointed to the fat man who came over, his move was to pull the tiger skin to make a big banner, the emperor's concubines are too much, who can check whether Ji Zhonglin is a relative who can't fight with which imperial concubine.

Hearing this, the two officers and soldiers hurriedly turned around and went to beg the fat man for mercy, and the fat man also knew that Nanfeng's move was to help him establish his authority, and he was not tolerant, so he coughed dryly twice, "This is a trivial matter, and the master is in charge." ”

When the two of them heard this, they came over to ask Nanfeng again, and Nanfeng asked casually, "What are the registered officials in the county government, and how many officials are there?"

The shorter officer and soldier were articulate and hurriedly played the express, and there was a county official in this county, who supervised the clerical affairs, taxes, people's livelihood and other matters. There is a county lieutenant, who is in charge of city defense, prison, and public security. These two people are the right-hand men of the county magistrate, in addition to the scribes, the Lingshi, the chief, the Zhiyin, the hall officials, the hook, the head, the public man, the treasury and other officials, a total of more than 100 people, these are directly under the central government, counting the township officials of the townships, the number is more than 300.

The screams of the wounded officers and soldiers alarmed the people nearby, and a large number of people gathered in the distance, looking at Nanfeng and the others at the city gate.

After the short officer and soldier finished speaking, Nanfeng didn't ask any more questions, but stood side by side with the fat man, waiting for the county government to pick them up.

The first waited for the first wait, the second waited for the second wait, and waited until it was dark, and no one came out to greet them, and even the officers and soldiers who had run to report the news did not come back.

"What to do?" the fat man was helpless.

"Get on the horse and go to the county office. Nanfeng raised his hand and pointed to the north, he had already made it very clear before, if he didn't come before dark, he would look down on Lord Ji, looking at this posture, everyone made it clear that they wanted to give them a dismount.

The fat man got on the horse, the south wind led the horse forward, and it was already the time to hold the lamp when he arrived at the county office, and the official register was presented, and the two people were allowed to enter the gatehouse.

There is a huge square in front of the county government, there is a brick retaining wall in front of the county government gate, the county government gate is two folds and opens, the steps are three layers, and there is a cowhide drum on the left side of the gate.

The whole county government is a three-way courtyard, one is the lobby, the left and right are the wings of the official errand, the second is the place of discussion, and the backyard is the county official's house.

At this time, the county government compound was dark, and there was no one in the county government except for the gatekeeper.

"What's going on?" the fat man couldn't laugh or cry.

"Shut the door and get off the horse. Nanfeng pouted and sneered, officials who came from other places to take up their posts would often be squeezed by their resident officials, and to put it bluntly, they were bullied.

"Is something wrong?" the fat man was a thief.

Nanfeng shook his head, "No, it just wants to frustrate our prestige." ”

"What now?" the fat man begged.

Nanfeng thought for a moment and asked, "Do you want to solve it as soon as possible or do you want to slow it down?"

"What do you say?" the fat man didn't have any idea.

Nanfeng didn't answer, and walked quickly to the north hall, at this time the door of the lobby was open, he went straight into the lobby, and came to the official platform where the county official was promoted to ask about the case, there was a yellow cloth package on the wooden platform, and after opening it, there was an official seal.

Nanfeng took the official seal, and then carried a stick, and after coming out, he pulled the fat man, inquired about the county Cheng's residence along the way, searched all the way, and came to the county Cheng's hospital and kicked in the door.

At this time, there were two middle-aged men sitting in the main hall, hearing that there was an abnormality in the courtyard, leaving their seats and going out to check what was going on.

"Who are you?" asked one of the brocade-clad men.

Nanfeng didn't answer, pushed the two of them and strode into the house, and after entering the house, he showed the official seal and shouted at the fat man outside, "Lord Ji, the stolen official seal has been found!"

At this time, not only the two middle-aged men were stunned, but even the fat man was stunned, and he didn't answer.

"Who is the master here?" asked Nanfeng in a loud voice.

"This is the official's mansion, who are you?" the man in brocade asked in a loud voice.

Nanfeng didn't answer, and stepped forward and waved a mighty stick to knock down the brocade-clothed man, "Stealing the official seal is a great crime." ”

This stick hit the head, directly knocking the brocade-clothed man to the ground and convulsing.

Nanfeng turned his head to look at the stunned middle-aged man on the side, "Who are you?"

"The little Wang Zhongsu is the tax collector of this county. The middle-aged man trembled with fright.

Nanfeng nodded and pointed to the fat man in the courtyard, "This is the newly appointed Lord Ji, you are here, did I bring this official seal, or was it originally in this room?"

The tax collectors had already understood what was happening, and they really wanted to frustrate the new officials' spirits so that they could exploit power and seek wealth in the future, but they never expected that the new county officials would bring such a fierce subordinate.

"Huh?" Nanfeng glared.

The tax collector was frightened and fell to his knees, "Lord Hui, the official seal was found in the room." ”

"Hmm. Nanfeng nodded, threw away the stick, and turned to walk south, "My lord, I think this person is loyal, but he can be in charge, can he take over the position of county leader?"

"It's a small matter, you can do it. The fat man replied casually.

"Wang Xiancheng, summon the officials of all ministries to rush to the county office, and Lord Ji will be promoted to the court to ask about the case. The south wind pulled the fat man and turned around and went out.

"When I first arrived, I offended so many people, and I am afraid that the future will not be easy. The fat man was worried.

Nanfeng snorted coldly, "I'm not afraid of offending my people, and I'm not afraid of offending him......"
