Chapter 120: Wu Yong chases Jiang De
After Wu Yong said a few words to Chao Gai and the others, he left quickly and went straight to the county office, and in the county office, Jiang De was talking to a few people.
"Haha, Xiao Langjun arrived here to collect the wind, but he didn't tell him, otherwise the lower officials would have to prepare early, or okay, Qian Neiguan is also here today, so how about everyone drinking together?" A civil official said with a smile, on his left hand, it was Jiang De and Xu Guanzhong, and on his right hand, there was also a person, who was a white and fat internal official, this person smiled at Jiang De, "As early as when I was in Tokyo, I heard of Xiao Langjun's reputation, but unfortunately I didn't see it, when our family came out, Lord Yang also said that if we have Xiao Langjun half of the cleverness, he will be relieved." Isn't this a coincidence, I say it every day, talk about it every day, and I met it today, Lord Shi, I can tell you, it is the official family today, and recently I have been talking about our Xiao Langjun every day, saying why Xiao Langjun didn't go back to tell him stories! β
is called Lord Shi's name is Shi Wenbin, it is the magistrate of Yuncheng County, wearing a green robe, he doesn't dare to underestimate the white-bodied Jiang De, not to mention who doesn't know that the official family once had a golden mouth to seal Jiang De, but Cai Jing has been suppressing it in order to avoid suspicion, and Li Gang is also because he is Jiang De, so he will no longer talk about it. Let's just say that Jiang De himself is called by the palace at every turn, can such a person be regarded as an ordinary person? What's more, there is also the relationship between Cai Jing and Liang Zhongshu, so Shi Wenbin was afraid that Jiang De would be a little dissatisfied, and even shamelessly called himself a subordinate official.
Jiang De and the two of them said a few words of gossip, and suddenly said, "By the way, I have been walking around Yuncheng County in the past few days, and I heard that Liangshanbo was sealed, and people were arrested, and no one was allowed to enter and exit at will, but is there such a thing?" β
Qian Neiguan said hehehe, "That's true, Xiao Langjun, why don't you say that these mud legs don't understand the good intentions of the official family and the court?" β
Jiang De sighed, "That's true, this inventory of mountains and rivers and fields makes those local tyrants and gentry who hide in the fields hand over the land, so that the people who abide by the laws and regulations can reduce their tax burden, but... This public opinion is not good, and I am worried that it will tarnish the reputation of the official family. β
If someone else said this, I'm afraid that this Qian Neiguan would have sprayed it a long time ago, but Jiang De said this, Qian Neiguan could only bear it, not for anything else, as long as Jiang De could talk to the official family at any time and hand over the note, it was not something he could bear.
Shi Wenbin asked with some hesitation: "Then, according to Xiao Langjun's meaning?" β
Jiang De sighed and said, "I'm young, what ideas can I have, but I'm thinking, what is the result of this official family!" Is it really a field? No! It's to pay taxes! Does Yang Neiguan want a field? Neither is it! It is the source of funds for Yanfu Palace, and it is a promise to the official family not to give more endowments to the people and the palace to become its own, in this case, you have got so much land, but you don't have much money to collect it, are the officials and Yang Neiguan satisfied? β
Qian Neiguan nodded and said, "But it makes sense." β
Jiang De said again: "I'll talk about it casually, you should be joking when you hear it, these rich people have been living for a long time, and they don't know how much gold and silver floating wealth is hidden underground, even if they find out the hidden field, they can also live freely with these floating wealth, isn't this unreasonable?" If this is really Hidden Field, I can't run away, first collect the taxes they owed before, this problem of Hidden Field, you can talk about it later! β
Shi Wenbin's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile, "Thank you Xiaolangjun for your advice, Xia Guan understands what to do!" β
Qian Neiguan also suddenly said, "High! It's really high, otherwise the Taishi and the official family would value Xiao Langjun! β
Jiang De continued: "Also, I heard that how many people were arrested? β
Qian Neiguan nodded and said, "No, there are a few Diao Min surnamed Ruan, this surname Ruan, his temper is very hard, and he wants to force himself into the puddle, and when he arrests them, he also hurts several people." β
When Jiang De heard the surname Ruan, he guessed that it was those people, thought about it, and felt that these three people were also righteous first, so he said, "I don't know how these Diao people are going to deal with it?" β
Qian Neiguan touched his chin and said, "According to my meaning, it's better to kill chickens and scare monkeys." β
Jiang De nodded and said, "This is a killing stick, and it's okay to let it out for others to see." β
Qian Neiguan originally wanted to kill someone, but since Jiang De said so, he didn't argue, and said down the slope, "That's right, then Lord Shi should hurry up." β
Shi Wenbin nodded and said, "This is also simple, and the lower official will definitely do it tomorrow at the latest." β
ββOutside the Yamen
Shi Wenbin sighed and said, "Xiao Langjun, this is really too outward, why don't you want to stay a little longer?" Is it because you can't look down on the superiors? β
Jiang De shook his head and said, "Lord Shi's intentions, the kid understands it, but the kid also has a task sent by the official family, and he really doesn't dare to get away with it for a day, you know, the official family has already sent someone to Jishui to urge me to return to Beijing as soon as possible." β
Shi Wenbin said enviously: "Xiao Langjun is in the emperor's heart today, and I believe that he will not spend his days like a lower official." β
Jiang De replied, "What did Lord Shi say, the kid is just a white body, not to mention that Lord Shi is rich and has five cars, I believe that it will not be long before he will rise to the top." β
Shi Wenbin smiled and arched his hand, "Thank you Jiyan." β
Chen Guang, who was waiting outside the door, stepped forward and said to Jiang De, "How is it?" Is the baby okay? β
Xu Guanzhong said with a smile, "It's also that Chen Jiaotou doesn't like these occasions, otherwise you can taste their tea here, and the taste is still different." β
After the three of them laughed for a while, Jiang De said, "If I guessed correctly, the Ruan family brothers that the internal official said just now are Ruan Xiaoer, Ruan Xiaowu and Ruan Xiaoqi, these three people are masters in the water, righteousness comes first, I think they can also be friends." β
As he was talking, Chen Guang suddenly said, "Little baby, be careful, there are people behind us." β
Someone stalking? This is the first time, Jiang De continued to say loudly without changing his face, "This is at the foot of this Liangshanbo, it's not okay not to take a look, let's go, let's go to Liangshanbo to collect the style, and we can also taste the fresh fish." β
Several people went out of the city together, and after a while, when they arrived at a place where there was no one, Jiang De stopped his horse, turned around and said, "Friend, come out, aren't you tired?" β
Several warriors next to him had already taken out their bows and arrows, and Chen Guang was holding a steel spear, ready to attack at any time.
"Xiao Sheng Wu has seen Xiao Langjun!" A man dressed as a literati walked out of the woods with a copper chain around his waist, which was the same Wu Yong he saw in Chao Gai's house.
"Oh, it's Mr. Wu." Jiang De waved his hand, the warriors put away their weapons, Jiang De stepped forward and asked, "Why did Wu Xuexue follow him, did he think there was something wrong with him?" β
