When Wu Song came to the county yazheng hall, he saw Xu En sitting there alone, his face was very ugly, and his old appearance was revealed, just like Wu Song had seen in his mansion that night. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Seeing Wu Song, Xu En's first sentence asked, "Wu Song, what do you think of this official?" ”

Wu Song didn't know for a moment that he came to him early in the morning, and asked what this sentence meant, and said: "Lord Xu has the grace of knowing Wu Song, he is honest and honest, he is bent on changing the law, he is diligent in his administration, and he is decisive in handling things, and he can be regarded as a unique good official in today's era!" ”

Naturally, he didn't mean to flatter Xu En, but the true feeling that Xu En had given him so far. As a traverser, he naturally knew that in this era of the Northern Song Dynasty, the emperor was mediocre, the traitorous ministers were in charge, the five senses of the world were not greedy, and good officials like Bao Zheng and Bao Qingtian had already died. Xu En, who wrote Qinghe Zhixian County, is indeed very rare in terms of personality and official character.

Although Xu En is the disciple of Cai Jing, the number one traitor in Tianzi, which is not worth it to Wu Song, at least so far, Wu Song has not found any bad deeds of corrupt officials. This is also the reason why Wu Song is willing to continue to serve under him.

After listening to Wu Song's words, Xu En's face improved slightly, but he still seemed to sigh and said, "You have a good reputation!" Among the official county officials, a county official is a protégé of Lord Cai Bian, and a secret is a secret agent of Lord Tong Guan, but I am unconscious, and I can be regarded as incompetent. Thanks to the trust of the imperial court and the minister, he wants the official to implement the law change in Qinghe County, although the plan has been decided, it can be rolled out immediately, but now that Jiang Hou and Ma Kui are fighting, many plans have been disrupted again! This is also the incompetence of the official! ”

Wu Song Zhengse said: "Adults don't have to blame themselves so much! Whether it is Empress Jiang or Ma Kui, these are all those adults in the court who are good at intrigue and trickery, and what does it have to do with adults? Besides, changing the law is for the sake of the country and the people's livelihood, and seizing Qishu is just Cai Jing and Tong Guan's own selfishness. Zhao Er interfered arbitrarily, forcing the adults to mobilize manpower to track down Ma Kui's whereabouts, and delaying the implementation of the law change, which is not the fault of the adults! ”

Cai Jing and Tong Guan are now powerful officials, but Wu Song knows that they are all traitors, so he calls them by their names without respect.

At this time, there was no one else beside him, Xu En knew that Wu Song had a "misunderstanding" with Cai Jing, but he liked him to be straightforward and honest, so he didn't care. sighed again and said, "Last night, we sent the government to capture Kuai and local soldiers overnight to track down the whereabouts of Ma Kui and others, but now we have found nothing. The secret envoy was very angry, and he personally set off for the state capital early this morning to transfer people from the state capital to continue the investigation. However, since the secret envoy already knows that Ma Kui is a secret agent of Lord Tong Guan, and Jiang Hou is originally a protégé of Lord Cai Bian, everyone in the world knows that the relationship between Lord Gongxiang and Lord Tong Guan is very good, and Lord Cai Bian is his own brother, everyone is originally a family, why do Lord Zhao and Ma Kui, Empress Jiang and others compete with each other? I think Lord Zhao's intention is to get rid of Ma Kui as soon as possible, isn't he afraid that this will offend Lord Tong Guan and cause the public minister and Master Tong to have a dislike in their hearts? ”

Wu Song said: "Whether it's Cai Jing or Tong Guan, they were originally big traitors, and it is normal for these traitors and corrupt officials in the court to intrigue with each other, so how can we manage it!" ”

Xu En was silent for a moment and said, "You are right! The adults in the court are fighting for each other, and we naturally avoid them as much as possible. Reform of the law is the will of the imperial court at the top, and the expectation of the people at the bottom, which is the top priority. Qinghe County's change has been delayed for too long, and now the arrow is on the bow, and it can't help but be launched. There were many things before, and Empress Jiang assisted the official in doing it. Now that he is gone, the official called you here today, just because he thinks that among the yamen, you are the most loyal and upright, and dare to act, so I want to continue to discuss with you how to promote the change of the law! ”

Wu Song knew that Xu En came to Qinghe County to serve as the magistrate, and he was dedicated to promoting the reform of the law. Now, since he knows that Ma Kui and Jiang Hou are both people with great backgrounds, he is even more reluctant to pursue it too much, so as not to be self-defeating and offend Tong Guan or Cai Bian. Although he was grateful to Cai Jing, Zhao Er was only a secret envoy and not Cai Jing himself after all, and he did not dare to disobey Zhao Er's instructions, but he was also unwilling to be too active in tracking down Ma Kui and Jiang Hou.

After all, as a person in the officialdom, it is best to be left and right, although he is loyal to Cai Jing, he is not willing to easily let Tong Guan or Cai Bian hold a grudge against him. What's more, the relationship between Tong Guan, Cai Bian and Cai Jing is already very close and complicated, and he can't act rashly.

Therefore, although he obeyed Zhao Er's instructions last night and stopped Wu Song, he actually agreed with Wu Song's statement in his heart, that is, he should put public before private and implement the reform of the law.

Wu Song was already in an era of reform and opening up before he crossed over, and reform was naturally correct in his mind. After crossing over, although he still did not fully understand this world, with the knowledge he saw in the book in his previous life and the confirmation in front of him, he did feel that the Northern Song Dynasty has now accumulated many social and economic contradictions, and the reform of the law is indeed a top priority. Otherwise, it will be impossible to escape the fate of being destroyed by the Jin Kingdom not long after!

In order to improve people's livelihood and revitalize the country, Wu Song supported the reform of the law. In order to destroy Zhangjiabao, severely punish Zhang Dahu, rescue Pan Jinlian, and change the fate of Pan Jinlian and himself and his brother, Wu Song will also support the reform of the law in Qinghe County.

Of course, he also wanted to get the "Situ Testament" to prevent it from falling into the hands of the traitorous ministers Cai Jing or Tong Guan. Therefore, he is not very resolute against Zhao Er's mobilization of people to track down Ma Kui's whereabouts. However, if Xu En wants to implement the reform of the law now, he will definitely support it.

He was about to discuss with Xu En how to continue to implement the reform of the law, when he suddenly heard a report from a government official outside the door: "Lord Yuzhi County, the chief housekeeper is here to visit!" ”

Xu En was stunned for a moment and said, "The big housekeeper? Who's the big butler? ”

The official hurriedly said: "It's the big housekeeper of Zhangjiabao!" ”

It turned out that the big housekeeper of Zhangjiabao was also a tyrant in Qinghe County, so that people often used the title of "big housekeeper" in ordinary times, and even the three words of Zhangjiabao were omitted.

When Xu En heard this, he was slightly angry. But those who come are not good, and those who are good do not come. He and Wu Song were about to discuss how to make a move on Zhangjiabao and promote the change, so the big housekeeper of Zhang's Mansion came uninvited, so it was good to take this opportunity to explore the reality of the other party. Then he ordered: "Let him in!" ”

Hearing that it was Zhang Dahu's housekeeper, Wu Song was also angry in his heart. Unexpectedly, Zhangjiabao even has two housekeepers, which shows its large scale. Previously, Wu Song had only seen the second housekeeper, and that guy had fought against Wu Song three times, and Wu Song was already very disgusted. Since this big butler is bigger than the second butler, he must be a more vicious character than the second butler.
