(Let's vote!) ）

In the early morning of the first day of the fifth month, with the chirping of birds, Taixi County ushered in a new day.

In addition to Zhou Haiping, the magistrate of the county, who went to Fucheng, Gao Xu, the county on duty today, and the scribes of each room were in place one after another.

Unlike in the past, Chen Xiaoting did not appear on time, but Zeng Chun and Zhang Ertie came.

Seeing this scene, the people of the county government were even more excited, the new lieutenant didn't even want to come to the yamen, and they won the confrontation with the "eagle dog".

However, things cannot be so simple, and today is destined to be an unquiet morning.

When the county government began to work in an orderly manner as usual, a sealed letter was placed on the desktop where Chen Xiaoting was sitting.

There was no signature on the envelope, so Zeng Chun knew a few words, so he opened the letter and read it.

"Inspection...... Raise...... Letter ......" Zeng Chun said word by word.

Thinking of Chen Xiaoting's instructions when the two of them came, Zeng Chun took the letter to the nearby officer's room, found a clerk and said, "This lord, there is a share here...... The report letter, I don't know much about words, you read it to us! ”

Originally, this official didn't want to deal with Zeng Chun, but after hearing the report letter, he immediately became interested, and then other people in the officer's room also came around.

"Taixi County Ya, the land of snakes and rats, the officials are greedy, and the subordinates are cruel...... There is a house owner Wang Zheng, who forced the good to become a prostitute and framed the people; There is a ...... of the head of the torture room"

At the beginning of the letter, all the people of Taixi County were scolded, and then the specific content of the report letter, the illegal affairs of the county government and its subordinates.

In this report letter, seventy percent of the officials and officials of the Taixi County Ya were involved.

This letter frightened the officials in the office, and half of them were listed on it, and their crimes should have been sent to the army according to the Great Ming Law.

However, these things are still facts, and you can find them out as long as you look it up a little.

Seeing that these people were just reading the letter and not speaking, Zeng Chun suddenly said urgently: "Let you read it, you have taken a fancy to it!" ”

"I'm busy with official business, so you might as well ask someone else to read it!" The head of the house said with a cold face, and he was already thinking about countermeasures at this time.

Although the actions listed in the letter were tacit, they were all evidence of guilt anyway, so they could no longer remain calm.

Even at this time, there were people who wanted to destroy the letter, but fortunately, Zeng Chun was quick and snatched the letter back.

With this report letter, Zeng Chun left the officer's room, and then rushed straight to the outside of the yamen.

After Zeng Chun left, the pot in the officer's room was completely exploded, and everyone's buttocks were not clean, but now they were all poked out.

"Lord Wang, what should we do?" One of the officials asked.

Wang Zheng, the head of the house, had a gloomy face, and then said: "These two people must have gone to find Chen Xiaoting, although the surname Chen has been silent for the past few days, it is inevitable that he will use the topic to play!" ”

"Don't mess around, keep going, I'll go to the other principals to discuss countermeasures!" Wang Zheng said in a deep voice.

"Lord Wang, do you want to tell Lord County Cheng about this matter?" A clerk below said

Wang Zheng glared at the other party, and then said, "I still need you to teach?" ”

After leaving the officer's room, Wang Zheng found the other owners of the house and told them about the report letter.

Some people are like Wang Zheng who are on the edge of the abyss, and some people don't care about it.

I only heard Chen Yang, the head of the torture room, say: "These things involve a lot, the so-called law does not blame the public, if you want to be more serious, none of us in the yamen can escape!" ”

"Then Chen Xiaoting has just arrived, I'm afraid I won't dare to do such a big thing!"

Everyone thought about it and felt that it made sense, did Chen Xiaoting have the courage to arrest the county government clean? The answer, of course, is no.

Wang Zheng was almost persuaded by this point of view, but he always felt that things were not so simple.

One of the most important questions is, who exactly wrote the whistleblower letter?

At this time, Chen Xiaoting had already taken his four subordinates and hurried all the way to the outside of the county office.

Unlike usual, today Chen Xiaoting and his four servants all came with knives.

Seeing this unusual situation, a servant stepped forward and asked, "My lord, what are you ......?"

Zhang Ertie stepped forward and pushed the official away, and then scolded: "Jinyi Wei is doing something, get out of the way!" ”

I was really aggrieved these days before, although they were still high in front of the people, but the eyes of these bastards in the yamen had grown to the heavenly spirit cover.

After pushing the officials away, Chen Xiaoting and his entourage went directly into the yamen, and the knife and the scabbard made a "clang" sound between walking.

Chen Xiaoting's bad came, and soon alarmed everyone in the yamen, combined with the report letter that happened just now, the officials in the yamen probably guessed what Chen Xiaoting meant here.

Originally, everyone thought that it was not a big deal, but seeing Chen Xiaoting's menacing appearance, these officials who had been in the yamen for a long time became worried sharply.

No matter how isolated everyone is on weekdays, but Jinyiwei is Jinyiwei, and it is the wings of the Son of Heaven's pro-army.

When Chen Xiaoting and his entourage of five people arrived at the small courtyard in front of the second hall, all the house officials had already appeared in the corridors of the wings on both sides, and they all looked at Chen Xiaoting who broke into this place.

Wang Zheng and several directors took the lead and came to the opposite side of Chen Xiaoting and the others.

I only heard Wang Zheng ask: "Where did Captain Chen come from?" ”

Chen Xiaoting stepped forward with his saber in his hand and replied, "I just received a letter of accusation, saying that there are villains who are killing the people in this yamen, and the captain of this school is here for this!" ”

Chen Yang, the head of the torture room, said: "Captain Chen, I have also read the letter just now, it is simply nonsense, and seventy percent of the officials in the yamen are involved!" ”

"Are you here to take them all? Just because of a report letter that I don't know if it's true or not? ”

Until this time, Chen Yang maintained his strength against Chen Xiaoting, and wanted to use the yamen as a whole to suppress him.

Of course, Chen Xiaoting would not fall for Chen Yang's trap, so he listened to him: "What are you talking about, Lord Chen, the county officials are involved in the livelihood of 100,000 people in the county, how can they take everyone away without asking!" ”

Hearing this, Chen Yang couldn't help but nod proudly, and at the same time glanced at his subordinates who were standing far away, so that they didn't have to panic anymore.

However, Wang Zheng on the side had no bottom in his heart, if Chen Xiaoting was really so good at talking, he would not have come with a knife.

Sure enough, when Chen Yang was smiling just now, Chen Xiaoting spoke: "So, one person from each of the six rooms will leave to ask about the situation!" ”

Chen Xiaoting must not be allowed to take people away, this was Chen Yang's first thought, so he forced him to ask: "Captain Chen, this is the Taixi County Ya, you just want to take away the officials, have you asked the county magistrate?" ”

At this time, Chen Yang also used the magistrate to suppress Chen Xiaoting, but Chen Xiaoting glanced at the lobby in front of him, but found that Zhou Wenzhu, the magistrate, was not present.

Chen Xiaoting felt a little pity, if Zhou Zhixian could stand up and argue with him, even if Chen Xiaoting's matter was not done this time, it would be enough to establish authority in the county.

In the face of a small person like Chen Yang, Chen Xiaoting could not give any face, only to hear him say coldly: "Cut first and then play, the imperial power is licensed...... This is the prerogative of Jinyiwei! ”

Chen Xiaoting took a few steps forward, came to Chen Yang's ear and said, "Master Chen, is my explanation clear enough?" ”

Chen Yang has nothing to say, Jinyiwei is the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, and naturally has the imperial power to endorse him, and no one can confront him head-on.

After patting Chen Yang's stiff shoulder, and then arranging his sleeves, Chen Xiaoting said softly: "I just bring one person from each room, and I can make a difference after asking, why should you worry too much?" ”

At this moment, Chen Xiaoting seemed to be very good at talking again, so that Wang Zheng and the others still couldn't think about him, and they all secretly guessed what Chen Xiaoting was going to do.

On the one hand, the imperial power is in front, and on the other hand, Chen Xiaoting "persuades with good words", not only Chen Yang has no idea for a while, but Wang Zheng and others no longer talk more.

The corners of Chen Xiaoting's mouth showed a slight smile, and then he retracted and said coldly: "Shao Yuan, Zhang Dake, and ...... household."
