Volume 4 Jeju Dragon and Tiger Fight

Cai Jiu originally wanted to throw sesame seeds and pick up watermelons, combine the power of the three state governments, do an earth-shattering event, and make immortal achievements. Who wants to compensate his wife and break the army, the watermelon was not picked up, but the sesame seeds were lost.

Zhong Qi died, the six eagles of the Prime Minister's Mansion died, less than a hundred soldiers returned, and Jeju Mansion and Qingju Mansion lost even more soldiers······ Cai Jiu's intestines were full of regret, he knew that the result would be like this, even if others said that it was heavenly, he would not agree to do it.

Ay! It's a to blind your eyes – the gains outweigh the losses.

Regret can't solve the slightest problem, and trouble follows.

Niu Fen, the governor of Jeju Prefecture, was the first to make a difficulty, accusing Murong Governor of improper employment, and Qin Ming, the head of Qingzhou soldiers and horses, committed himself to a thief and raided Jeju soldiers and horses, causing the loss of Jeju Mansion to be incalculable, and this responsibility should be borne by Murong Yanda.

Murong's twists and turns are more direct and exquisite. He said that Cai Jiu's strategy was purely to take off his pants and fart, and send the mutton to the wolf's mouth for nothing, I don't know how to approve it? However, the Yangsanpo thieves endangered the people under the rule of Jeju Prefecture, and the Niu Governor did not do his best to encircle and suppress them, allowing the thieves to grow wantonly and raise tigers for trouble, resulting in this defeat, so both Gangju and Jeju Governors have unshirkable responsibilities.

Putting aside himself, killing two birds with one stone, and also alluding to Cai Jing, the emperor's brother-in-law is really extraordinary.

Cai Jiu sneered, prevaricated, bit back, and put the blame on me, wanting me to be a scapegoat. Hum! Thinking beautifully, there is no door, isn't it just a matter of a few words from my father. You Murong Yanda said it well, your soldiers and horses are in charge of Qin Ming's thieves, who do you want to pick this burden if you don't pick it? So the three state capitals continued to write the memorabilia according to their own wishes, and sent them to the capital continuously, and then sent their henchmen to Beijing, each showing their magical powers.

Half a month later, the results were shocking. Originally, the first to bear the brunt was the Murong Prefect, all the spearheads were pointed at him, and the form was the most unfavorable to him, if it wasn't for Qin Ming's betrayal, the big thing would have happened. But the result was: Murong Yanda came to rule the people rich and strong, and the time was lucky, and his achievements were impressive, and he was a good prefect admired by the people of Qingzhou. However, this time, if the employment is improper, there is a fault in the investigation, and a fine of three months will be imposed to set an example; The commander Hua Rong sacrificed his life to save the captured officers and soldiers, his courage is commendable, and he is now going to be promoted to the commander of the Qingzhou soldiers and horses and concurrently serve as the commander of the command; Qin Ming, the former commander of Qingzhou's soldiers and horses, became a bandit and offered a reward for his capture.

It seems that the favored Murong Guifei's pillow is extremely powerful.

Cai Jiu's treatment results were not painful. The holy decree said that he had merit in solving the skeleton robbery case, but he had lost prisoners, and the merits and demerits were offset by the merits, and he was fined for two months, and he focused on chasing down the skeleton thief leader Li Jun and his gang, and made meritorious contributions to the crime. As for his plan to trap the thieves in Liangshanbo, although he failed, his heart for the country and the people was sincere, and he was afraid that the world would be loyal and cold, so he was not punished.

The most unlucky is Niu Fen, who was surrounded by thieves under his rule, and he was blamed, so he was removed from the post of prefect and went to Shouzhang County to serve as the magistrate.

Niu Fen shouted in his heart that he was wronged, he spent a lot of money, and the legs he hugged were thick with the son of the master of the family and the uncle of the country, but don't go to Shouzhang County anywhere! It's very close to Liangshanbo, do you still have a good life if you provoke these plague gods?

Forget it! Anyway, I still have an official position, so let's earn back the money I spent first. In case the Liangshanbo army comes over, it is a big deal to resist with the most powerful plan among the thirty-six strategies, that is, to go for the upper plan.

Today's Jeju prefect has become Zhang Shuye, which Cai Jing specially transferred from Xi'an. said that Uncle Zhang's martial arts were excellent and qualified for the prefect of Jeju, but in fact, he was set up to take revenge on the Zhang family. Think about it, with the difficult bone of Liangshan Bo thief under his rule, can Uncle Zhang's life be better at night? In the future, if there is a wind and grass, isn't it as easy to pinch him as it is to pinch a soft persimmon!

Zhang Shuye's younger brother Zhang Kegong once impeached Cai Jing, so that Cai Jing was forced to step down, Cai Jing made a feud with Zhang, and angered Zhang Shuye, secretly collected Zhang Shuye's faults, and demoted Zhang Shuye to the supervisor of Xi'an grassland after coming to power.

Because Huizong attached great importance to Zhang Shuye's talent, he discussed with Cai Jing several times to recall Jingshi, but Cai Jingjing prevaricated for various reasons. This time, Cai Jing happened to play Huizong and let Uncle Zhang serve as the prefect of Jeju at night, which fulfilled Huizong's dream of being a talent, and firmly held Uncle Zhang in the palm of his hand.

Uncle Jang took his wife to Jeju Mansion at night to take office. As the saying goes, "there are three fires for a new official to take office", and to put it bluntly, it is to engage in image engineering, and first do two or three things that are beneficial to the people, so as to show their ability and determination to eliminate the evils of the times. At the same time, give my subordinates a dismissal, I am the only boss in the local area, and I will put a bright spot in the future, who dares to challenge the authority of the number one, and there will be a dead one. Who knew that Zhang Shuye did not burn these three fires, but only arranged his two sons Zhang Bofen and Zhang Zhongxiong to the military camp as envoys, and the rest of the officials ignored them, and they still did what they should do, as if they had nothing to do with him.

At the beginning of his tenure, Uncle Zhang went to worship the Confucian Temple to offer incense, which was a must in the Song Dynasty, which was to show that officials respected Confucianism and Taoism. Then it is to check the book, check the officials and attendants in the record book one by one to ensure that it is true and correct; Clearance inventory, check the grain depot and material depot clearly. This is what a new official must do when he takes office, and he does a routine job to check and fill in the gaps. I love Search.com

The next thing is that everyone is unpredictable, Uncle Zhang does not go to visit the imperial relatives in this county at night, as well as the retired officials of the same level as himself, the squires and the wealthy families, but he frequently appears in the homes of the poor, those people can produce wealth for him? Uncle Zhang didn't go to the banquets of the officials at night, but he always mingled with the soldiers and talked heart-to-heart.

There are many discussions in private in Jeju that the new prefect may collect materials, and it is very likely that there will be a big change. So the officials quietly gave gifts, and Uncle Zhang ordered those who came not to refuse and accept them all. Now everyone is at ease, there is no official in the world who is not greedy for money, and Uncle Zhang can't pass this hurdle at night, and it is rumored that he is honest and not credible.

Only two of the state officials did not give gifts: Yao Zhongyou and Yang Qi. Officials rumored that the two of them were summoned separately by Zhang Shuye in the military camp, and the matter was extremely hot by everyone.

One person with a nose and eyes said that Zhang Shuye reprimanded the two, and whatever Zhang Shuye said at that time, he said the Tao. When asked if he was there, the man did not answer. Some officials also said bitterly after hearing this: "The prefect openly asks for bribes, what kind of system is this!" But most officials secretly rejoice in their hearts, and work with their bosses who love money, which is really "money" immeasurable!

However, it was said that one day Zhang Zhifu invited Chinese military officials from the government to attend the meeting, and after everyone arrived, he first said a few polite words, and then asked his subordinate Wang Zhisi to read the bill, the content of which was the number of bribes paid by the officials this time, and Wang Bufan actually ranked first. The officials were shocked, and they didn't know what Uncle Zhang meant by the night, they were all watching his face, and secretly thinking about the prefect's intentions in their hearts.

After Wang Zhisi finished reading, Uncle Zhang smiled and said, "It seems that everyone is doing well in Jeju, and there is still money left to give away, so how can this government thank you?" ”

Seeing that the prefect had no intention of blaming, the officials said one after another, yes, Wang Bufan even arched his hand and said: "It's just a small courtesy, why bother to say thank you, the prefect has tormented the officials and others!" "There is pride in the words.

This time, he can show his face in front of the prefect, and he will have a good life in the future, and his smug look will be displayed on his face without reservation.

Seeing that the officials were intoxicated by this kind of dirty transaction, Uncle Zhang snorted coldly, and said with anger on his face: "The walls of Jeju City are not strong, the battlements are deformed, and the female wall is broken, so how can the city wall block the enemy's thunderous blow." The walls should have been repaired in time, but why was it delayed? For there is no silver, but what about the silver? ”

He looked around the officials and said, "All the money has been filled by you insatiable officials!" ”

Everyone saw that the prefect was angry, and they all bowed their heads and didn't dare to speak.

Zhang Shuye continued: "The Liangshan thieves are acting recklessly in Jeju, what is the reason for the repeated defeats of Jeju soldiers and horses? Because the handsome man is greedy for life, he will be afraid of death, the soldiers have no fighting spirit, and they will be frightened. In the end, it is a matter of generals, there are interests to run fast, to run faster in battle, and not to train sergeants on weekdays, such a team to win a battle is a joke! Wang Bufan is the representative of this kind of general! Runaway General, don't you feel a little ashamed when you hear this nickname? ”

When Wang Bufan heard his name, the two trembled, cold sweat was dripping, and he arched his hand and said: "Xiaguan, Xiaguan ······" He didn't know whether to defend or admit guilt, and it took a long time for the official to say: "I won't dare to go down in the future!" ”

Uncle Zhang said sharply: "You are waiting for the imperial court to worship, but you don't contribute to the imperial court, how can you face the vast divine grace!" Dare to have a next time, my Uncle Zhang can spare you at night, and the military law of the Great Song Dynasty will not spare you! I have made up my mind, tomorrow I will parade the army, select the best soldiers, the capable will go up, and the inferior will go down, so as to inject vitality into my Jeju army and enhance its combat effectiveness! ”

Uncle Zhang continued: "Now that there are thieves in Jeju, have you thought about the reason? I don't think you've thought about it. Do you know who the thief was? They were all farmers who kept to themselves. Why do they want to be thieves? Because they have no land, no money and goods, and they are not enough to be exploited for a year. They really can't survive anymore, and if they don't become thieves, they can only die. What is the reason for their transformation from a peasant who has done his duty to a rampant thief? It is the thousands of corrupt officials like you who have squeezed their blood and sweat and eaten away at their dignity! They are thieves just to live like a human being! ”

The heartbroken Uncle Zhang said sharply: "In the future, if there are those who oppress and exploit the people, this government will severely punish them!" ”

All the officials were in a panic, and said in unison: "The officials will follow the orders of the adults in the future, and everything will be based on the heads of the adults." ”

Uncle Zhang saw that most of the officials were frightened and ashamed, and this purpose had been achieved, so he said: "Wang Zhusi, confiscate all the property on the bill, use it for the maintenance of the city, and write a copy of the bill and paste it outside the mansion, write a letter to repair the city, and the official donation form." This time, if you don't take it as an example, those who dare to pay bribes in the future will be dealt with according to the law! That's the end of today's meeting! ”

All the officials retreated.
