Chapter Twenty-Eight: Ascending to the Capital

"Plop!" As soon as Zhang Yun saw the piece of paper, he immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowed like pounding garlic, and shouted: "The county magistrate spares his life!" The county magistrate spares his life! ”

It turned out that on that piece of paper was a secret account recorded by Zhang Yun himself, which was written on how to divide the spoils of a public fund that Zhang Yun had embezzled in partnership with others. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

Zhang Kongmu hid such a secret account very tightly, how could it fall into the hands of the magistrate? Suddenly there was a flash in his head that not long ago, Zhang Xin, the deputy Kongmu, had invited him to drink, and he was so drunk that he was unconscious.

Zhang Yun glanced at Zhang Xin, and sure enough, he saw Zhang Xin raising his head slightly, and his face was pale. He immediately understood everything.

"Someone! Drag it down to prison for interrogation! Xu Enzeng gave an order, and immediately a catcher quickly dragged away Zhang Yun, who was called Rao.

Faced with this sudden scene, Huang Li's face changed suddenly. This Zhang Yun is not only his subordinate in charge, but also has too much to do with him. Many of his shady accounts were handled by this Zhang Yun.

He jerked to his feet. However, before he could speak, Xu Enzeng sneered and said, "Why, Master Huang, Zhang Yun embezzled public funds, the evidence is conclusive, and you still have to intercede for him?" ”

What Huang Li wanted to say was suddenly blocked in his throat, so he had to snort coldly and sit down again.

Xu En once shouted again: "Feng Chao! ”

Feng Chao, the assistant envoy who was still shouting for the county magistrate to remove Wu Song from his post just now, hurriedly stood up and responded with a smile: "Lord magistrate, the villain is here!" What do you command? ”

At first glance, this guy is a very slippery guy. Xu En didn't even look at him, and said gloomily: "Are you guilty?" ”

Feng Chao's body trembled, continued to laugh forcefully, and said: "Master Zhixian, the villain has always been loyal to his duties, what is the crime?" ”

Xu Enzeng said: "Last summer, there was a big flood in Youfang Town, drowning three families and 16 people, and you concealed it in order to cover up the responsibility for the collapse of the embankment you built; In the autumn, there was a great drought in the county, and 27 people from 9 households died of thirst, and you lied about 327 people from 19 households in order to embezzle the money。。。。。。 ”

"Plop!" Feng Chao knelt on the ground, kowtowed again and again, and cried: "It turns out that the master has been secretly investigating me a long time ago." The villain is willing to recruit, ask the master for forgiveness! ”

Xu En once shouted: "Take it!" ”

Feng Chao was also immediately dragged down and imprisoned. Huang Li's complexion became more and more ugly.

Next, Xu En took out conclusive evidence to extort people's money, occupy wives, accept bribes, release prisoners privately, force people to die and other crimes, and took down five more clerks in one go.

Wu Song was on the side, watching in amazement. He and his brother have only been in Qinghe County from the countryside for a few days, but seeing that the streets and markets in Qinghe County are prosperous, singing and dancing, who knows, under this piece of peace, there are so many corrupt officials and ink officials hidden in the dignified county government!

And from the crimes they committed, it can also be seen that the ordinary people of Qinghe are simply asking for more blessings. Once targeted by these filthy officials, the light one will be ruined, and the worst one will be ruined!

This kind of chaos seems to be the same in the society with a developed market in the previous life, and it can be called the same in some places!

In the face of Xu En's handling of filthy officials in such a large number, the chief bookkeeper Huang Li was restless, and the expression on his face became more and more angry. However, because Xu Enzeng was able to come up with conclusive evidence every time, the people he named could hardly refute it, so Huang Li didn't know where to start.

According to this posture, after Xu En concurrently served as the county lieutenant and appointed Wu Song as the acting head of the capital to control the arrest, he had already started an investigation in secret, and wanted to further purge and investigate the local powerful figures among the officials of the yamen. Not only does he want to break the delicate balance of the political situation in Qinghe County since history, but he also obviously wants to take full control of Qinghe County!

If he continues like this, the yellow calendar will be destroyed sooner or later! At that time, there will be no one who can represent the interests of the local heroes in the yamen of Qinghe County! Maybe in fact it can't be so, but at least in the future, the person who represents the interests of the local heroes will no longer be his yellow calendar, which is completely possible!

However, the current yellow calendar is indeed a bit isolated. He glanced at the county and found that Jiang Hou County was looking at his nose and nose, and he was silent. Obviously, Huang Li's previous plan to win him over failed. "You bastard! Dog mongrel! Huang Li couldn't help but curse in his heart.

"Zhang Oshiji!" Xu Enzeng was taking the roll call again. He's coming.

A middle-aged man with a short figure walked slowly to the middle of the lobby and said, "The villain is here!" ”

Seeing this, Wu Song couldn't help but be secretly strange. Today, except for himself, all those who have been named by Xu Enzeng have violated the law and violated the ban, and the evidence is conclusive, not only will they be dismissed, but they will also be imprisoned for further investigation. Why is this Zhang Ji so calm and calm?

Xu Enzeng also seemed to attach great importance to this person, so after dealing with many people in one go, he named him again, obviously wanting to give him a dismount first to deter him. However, it doesn't look like the move is working. This person has a super psychological quality.

As soon as this person appeared, Huang Li, who was originally restless, immediately had a happy face. Empress Jiang couldn't help but open her eyes and took a few more glances at the scene. Even Ma Kui, who has a lower position than them, can't help but look on his face.

Wu Song suddenly remembered: In the previous life "Water Margin", wasn't Song Jiang, the sworn brother who had the best relationship with him, also the county's priest before falling grass? Oshiji is the secretary in charge of the county, are they all powerful people?

Xu Enzeng's eyes forced him to look at Zhang Jin, and said, "Are you guilty?" ”

Zhang Jin looked directly at the magistrate and said loudly: "The villain is not guilty!" ”

Xu Enzeng was furious, raised a stack of papers on the table, and shouted: "Isn't it a crime to accept money from people and leak secrets, tamper with official documents, make fake official documents, and ventilate the news?" ”

As soon as the previous people saw that Xu En had produced conclusive evidence, they knew that the matter was exposed, and immediately pleaded guilty and begged for mercy. However, Zhang Jin just glanced at the evidence in Xu Enzeng's hand lightly, and said calmly: "I don't know who did these crimes that the county master said?" The villain didn't do it. There are villains who collect money from others, but the annual salary in the yamen is only five taels of silver, if the villain does not accept money, how can he support his family? Could it be that the villain's family starved to death? The villain is not guilty, and the county master is aware of it! ”

Damn, there is such a truth in the world!

Xu Enzeng was furious, slapped the wood in shock, and shouted: "Tian is shameless, strong words!" Come on, take it! ”

This time, the two officials came up, but they did not immediately start to arrest Zhang Jin, obviously they were afraid of him, although the magistrate ordered, they did not dare to attack Zhang Jin easily, it can be seen that although this Zhang Jin as a charge is not high, but he has a strong influence in the yamen.

I saw that he didn't move, his face was calm, and he said to Xu Enzeng: "Please think twice about the county master!" It's better not to catch me! ”

Xu Enzeng said: "Presumptuous! No matter what your origin is today, you must follow the law and take it down for me! ”

The two officials stepped forward, but still did not move. Seeing this, Wu Song couldn't help but shout angrily: "Bold! The magistrate ordered to take people, why didn't you two do it? ”

Zhang Jin glanced at Wu Song, smiled coldly, and said: "Master Zhixian, there has been a saying since ancient times, the yamen is open, and there is no reason to come in without money." You are a master, naturally you don't have to worry about food and clothing, like us, a scribe and servant, tired and tired all year round, there is no hope of promotion, and the meager salary cannot support yourself, let alone support your family. I usually find an opportunity to collect some money, but also to do things for the county magistrate and the imperial court! If the county magistrate thinks that I Zhang Jin is guilty, then I dare to say that everyone in this yamen is guilty, if the lord arrests me Zhang Jin, it will not make the brothers chill, they are afraid that they will all stop working, and they dare not serve the county magistrate! ”

As he spoke, Zhang Jin glanced at both sides. His words were obviously inciting, and as soon as he finished speaking, sure enough, a man came out and knelt on the ground, saying, "The lord of the county of Qiuzhi is gracious and spares these brothers just now." Otherwise, the villain asks the county magistrate to remove the villain from his position, and the villain will not dare to do things! ”

"The lord of the county of knowledge is removed from the villain's position!" "The villain asks to be dismissed and go home!" "The villain is incompetent, and the lord of the county is dismissed!" At the beginning of his life, more than a dozen officials immediately followed suit and demanded their resignation. However, the confidential Maqui quietly hid behind and did not participate.

Zhang Jin's face was faintly colorful. Huang Li was even more overjoyed, and finally found an opportunity to stand up, looked everywhere, and shouted, "What are you doing here?" The magistrate is more harsh in dealing with the problem, you can also talk about it well, can't you all resign together? You are all like this, who else does the county magistrate rely on? ”

He is obviously afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and continues to fan the flames. These officials of the Qinghe County Ya, who don't know that the main bookkeeper Huang Li is the representative of the local forces. When he said this, several more officials immediately came out, knelt down and resigned.

Wu Song secretly shouted badly: Straight girls and thieves, this is obviously going to strike!

Wu Song's previous request to the magistrate to remove him from the post of acting capital is a manifestation of sincere self-reflection and responsibility. And now these guys have scattered and submitted their resignations, which is obviously an expression of dissatisfaction with the county's surprise punishment of corruption today, and they are doing it!

In the face of the magistrate's severe punishment of corruption, they tried to blackmail the magistrate by resigning and paralyzing the yamen.

"Hahahaha!" Wu Song's eyebrows were raised, and he was about to help Zhixian speak, when Xu Enzeng suddenly burst out laughing.
