Luo Hui looked at the remaining three magistrates, one was about thirty years old, one was nearly fifty years old, and the last one was sixty!

Luo Hui walked in front of the thirty-year-old magistrate, this person has only 40 greed, but 80 loyalty, and he is indeed a loyal minister.

"Han Zhixian, has your county refunded your salary?"

Han Zhixian shook his head: "No? ”

Luo Hui looked at him: "Why not?" ”

"Because the emperor's holy decree to abolish the Liao salary came, the lower officials did not levy the Liao salary!"

Luo Hui showed a satisfied look, and he walked up to the two magistrates with a greed level of 50 and 60 respectively: "What about you two!" ”

The two of them lowered their heads, originally a little proud in their hearts, but when they heard Han Zhixian's words, they were ashamed: "My lord, we have all retreated!" ”

Luo Hui: "Very good, it's not too late to make amends, Ben Qincha hopes that you will remember to go through the ghost gate today, I don't ask you to make any political achievements, but you must cherish the people!" ”

The two magistrates knelt down, and their hearts palpitated: "The lower officials remember the golden and jade words of Lord Qincha!" ”

"Good words? In the future, there will be less sycophants, so go back! ”

The two magistrates were amnesty and quickly left the Baoding Mansion.

Han Zhixian arched his hand: "My lord, will the lower officials also go back?" ”

Luo Hui shook his head: "You don't have to go back?" ”

"This?" Han Zhixian was very puzzled and didn't quite understand what Luo Hui meant.

"This Baoding lacks a prefect!"

Han Zhixian was stunned, and then Zhengse said: "My lord, Xiaguan is just a seven-grade magistrate, how can he be a prefect?" ”

"I said that you can, not only the prefect, just by virtue of your performance in the Liaoyu incident this time, I will definitely show the emperor, your future is definitely more than a prefect!"

Han Zhixian looked at him in a daze, he was twenty years old, he could be said to be a young man, but he failed many times after that, and he couldn't help but be disheartened and tired of the exam. This is the recommendation of a friend, although he can't realize his ambitions, he can also ensure the livelihood of a county, which is a bit of a thing.

Unexpectedly, this minister directly asked him to serve as the prefect, but he was still a little hesitant: "My lord, I'm afraid it's a lack of qualifications and experience!" ”

Luo Hui looked at him: "Han Zhixian, do you still want a corrupt official with sufficient qualifications and experience to harm Baoding Mansion and my Ming Dynasty?" ”

Han Zhixian looked at the young Qincha in front of him in a daze, looking at his hard look, his eyes gradually became firm, and his somewhat decadent heart began to revive for a moment.

"My lord, the lower officials are willing to go to the soup and serve the Ming Dynasty with death!"

Luo Hui smiled and said: "Very good, you are now the acting prefect for a period of time, and after the emperor's decree comes down, you will be the official prefect!" ”

Han Zhixian saluted: "Thank you for your appreciation, but the lower officials still have to go back, settle the affairs of the county, and then take their families over!" ”

"Okay, there you go!"

After Han Zhixian left, Xu Qianhu came to visit.

He lowered his head and was very respectful: "What is the matter of your lordship?" ”

Xu Qianhu is the former Jinyi Wei Baihu, because of his contributions, he was promoted to Qianhu and was responsible for guarding the city.

From 100 households to 1,000 households, it is definitely a big threshold, not only to make connections, but also to make silver. And now Emperor Chongzhen does not reuse Jinyi Wei, so Xu Baihu can only lurk in Baoding City, if it weren't for Luo Hui, he might have rotted in Baoding Mansion!

Now not only has he been promoted to a thousand households, but his subordinates have all been promoted to one level under Luo Hui's recommendation. It also began to change from latent to official, investigating a number of officials in the government.

Luo Hui: "I want you to pick out twenty loyal Jinyi guards, each with ten soldiers, go to various counties to raid the homes of those magistrates, and then refund them directly!" ”

Xu Qianhu: "My lord, what should I do if I have the rest after the refund?" ”

"The property of those magistrates is all scraped by the people's fat and people's ointment, so let's return half of it according to the results of the seizure, and the other half will be taken to Baoding Mansion, if it is not a difficult time now, it will all be returned!"

Xu Qianhu bowed his head: "Humble obedience!" ”

"Wait" Luo Hui stopped him: "Xu Qianhu, you must send people with clean hands and feet, and warn the soldiers, don't take what you shouldn't take, the reward is indispensable to them, think about the fate of those corrupt officials!" ”

Xu Qianhu's expression was grim, knowing that this matter was not easy. Only then did he understand why he sent twenty brocade guards, that is, to let them supervise each other. Thinking of this section, Xu Qianhu admired Luo Hui, the minister, even more.

"The humble will definitely manage his subordinates, please rest assured!"

Looking at Xu Qianhu's solemn expression, Luo Hui put his mind down.

After everything was done, Luo Hui put his mind at ease.

When he was about to go back to the backyard, Wan Bi ran over in a panic.

"Something's wrong, sir!"

Looking at Wan Bi's panicked appearance, Luo Hui also looked nervous: "Something's wrong!" ”

Wan Bi leaned on the pillar and gasped: "There is a murder, someone is dead!" ”

"Homicide?" Luo Hui looked at him angrily: "Do you think something really happened?" There are more than 300,000 in Baoding Mansion, isn't it normal for there to be a murder? ”

Wan Bi: "My lord, the key is that there is no prefect now, and the people are counting on the lower officials!" ”

"Then you go and solve the case, why did you come to me, didn't the people call you Lord Qingtian?" Luo Hui smiled.

"Where am I going to solve the case? I've never been a magistrate, I've always been in the military department! ”

Wan Bi didn't bother to care about this kind of thing if it wasn't for the sake of ensuring his own face as a great master! But now the people call him Master Qingtian, if he is stumped by a case, won't he become the laughing stock of others, making people laugh off their big teeth!

"Hey, I remember that you didn't say that the backlog of more than 10,000 cases of Di Gong in the Tang Dynasty is not as good as you, why is it that a small murder case is stumped for you now" Luo Hui deliberately teased him.

Wan Bi was so angry that he blew his beard and glared: "That's what you said, I didn't say it!" ”

"But you didn't deny it either!" Luo Hui smiled.

Wan Bi was almost mad at him: "If you don't want to help, just pull it, and don't talk about it!" ”

Luo Hui thought about it, anyway, it's nothing, it's better to go and see.

"Let's go, take me to see it!"

Wan Bi was stunned, not understanding that Luo Hui's tendon was wrong. However, he really couldn't solve the case, so he had no choice but to turn to Luo Hui for help. If he can't break it, he can save his face!

The two followed the two soldiers to a small town outside Baoding City, in the west.

The scene of the murder was an ancient well, and the soldiers had already fished out the body and pretended to be conducting an autopsy.

Luo Hui and Wan Bi took a closer look, and it was a swollen male corpse with a pale face. Wan Bi saw the corpse and involuntarily took two steps back.

Luo Hui asked the servant: "Who found this and how long has it been dead!" ”
