Li Gongfu's appearance was originally with a sense of non-anger and self-authority, but at this time, he drank hard, and he showed even more official authority.

After the matter came to light, he didn't let go of any of them.

He first interrogated the man who pretended to be the river god, punished him for a felony, and put him on death row, and then he served several wealthy businessmen led by Zhang Dahu with sticks one by one!

Seeing that he was about to be beaten, Zhang Dahu was frightened, and begged for mercy again and again: "Master Qincha is gracious!" The grass people are not guilty—"

"Be bold! Dare to say that you are not guilty! Li Gongfu shouted angrily: "You instigated the people in the county to sacrifice the girl, although it does not constitute a crime, but it is also an attempted murder!" How to deal with it, there is its own law of the wind! ”

"Huh!?" When Zhang Dahu heard this, he immediately became anxious, and hurriedly said: "Master Qincha is good!" The grass people are willing to offer treasures, and they hope that the old man will be gracious! ”

He really didn't know what Li Gongfu was like, and he dared to bribe him in public!

Li Gongfu has been poor all his life, to be honest, he is a poor official, and he takes his official salary every month, and he is the most corrupt official in his life! Now Zhang Dahu dares to bribe him, it is undoubtedly asking for hardship!

There is no doubt that after Li Gongfu heard this, he was furious on the spot and took the case: "Boldly Diao the people!" How dare you cover up your crimes with money! If this official does not punish you severely today, where is justice!? ”

"Someone! Sticks are waiting! And put him in prison! Six months in prison! ”

"No!"

Miscellaneous...... What the!? When Zhang Dahu heard this, he was stupid on the spot, but when he reacted and began to cry, where did anyone pay attention to him.

The other wealthy merchants who created rumors about the river god with him were also punished one after another.

Next, Li Gongfu began to clean up the local county guard again.

At this time, the county guard was already in a cold sweat, and when Li Gongfu pointed the last finger at him, he couldn't help wiping the cold sweat on his forehead with the sleeves of his official uniform, and said with a smile:

"Huh...... Master Li is really a god, and in just two days, he cracked the case of the river god and went down to ...... The lower officials admired Master Li so much......"

For this matter, the responsibility of the local county guard is definitely not small! Li Gongfu didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, but said directly in a cold voice: "Lord County Guard, please take off your official uniform and take off the official hat on your head!" ”

"What...... What ......" Hearing this, the county guard's eyes widened, and he stammered: "Lord Li, this ...... This...... Although the subordinate is responsible, the crime is not so much......"

"Humph! You are a parent official! but dereliction of duty! Let the gossip confuse the public! What's more, he ignores the lives of the people in the eyes! Do you think you are worthy of this official uniform!? Li Gongfu shouted angrily, simply mercilessly.

The county guard swallowed his saliva and said, "But, the lower official is a dignified official of the imperial court, and even if the lord is a messenger, he has no right to deprive the lower official of his official position!" ”

"This official has no right to deprive the county keeper of his official position, so it's always okay!" As he spoke, Li Gongfu invited out Wang Jian on the spot, and raised it with one hand and said: "This official is ordered by the king to patrol the sky on behalf of the sky!" What Wang Jian pointed out is like the king coming in person! ”

Yes!? Seeing that he invited Wang Jian, the county guard knelt on the ground on the spot, and hurriedly shouted: "Knock...... Knock on the king—"

After he bowed to Wang Jian, he began to beg Li Gongfu for mercy: "My lord! Lord Li, the lower officials are guilty, and I hope that for the sake of Lord Shangshu, my subordinates will be merciful......"

Oh? Hearing him say this, Li Gongfu frowned, and asked in a condensed voice, "Which Shangshu lord?" ”

"Shang Shuling, Li Miaocai, Master Li." The county guard said cautiously.

Li Gongfu's brows furrowed even deeper, and at this time, Chen Fang also came over and whispered in Li Gongfu's ear: "My lord, Lord Shangshu is a close minister of the king's side, and his power is tilted towards the government and the opposition, and in his humble opinion, this matter is still ...... Let's take a long-term view......"

"Huh?" When Li Gongfu heard this, he couldn't help glaring at Chen Fang, then looked at the county guard again, and sneered: "Hmph! The official also wants to give Li Shangshu this face! But the king is ruthless! ”

"What!? My lord! You, you! "I'm afraid that the county guard never thought that this Li Gongfu didn't even sell Li Miaocai's face, and for a while, he felt that Li Gongfu was a psychopath!

But he is serving as a county guard, and he is near the capital, and his future is bright, and when he is evaluated for political performance next year, it is very likely that he will be promoted, how could he be so willing to be dismissed by Li Gongfu!

Seeing that Li Gongfu was biting hard, the county guard was also anxious on the spot, and couldn't help but start to say angrily: "Lord Li! No matter how you say it, the lower official is also the official of the imperial court! It's not like you're a messenger who can be dismissed if you say you're dismissed! The lower officials are not convinced! They will come before the king. ”

"Good! I am waiting for you to sue the king. Li Gongfu said categorically.

"You wait!" The county guard was annoyed and ashamed, and walked away.

After he left, Chen Fang was dumbfounded, and stammered: "This ...... This, my lord, listening to the meaning of this county guard, it must have something to do with Li Shangshu, if it is...... If so......"

Knowing what he meant, Li Gongfu said with an iron face: "This official is not afraid of crooked shadows!" Even if Li Shangshu comes forward, the official still says the same thing! ”

"But ......" Chen Fang wanted to say something, but in front of Li Gongfu, he couldn't say a word.

It's unheard of to be such an official! Li Miaocai is a dignified minister, and he is a close minister next to the king, if he offends him, will Li Gongfu have good fruits to eat in the future!

But Li Gongfu didn't care so much at all, he didn't even ask what the relationship between the county guard and Li Miaocai was!

After the end of the river god case, the people in the county learned the truth, and when Li Gongfu returned to the capital, they knelt on both sides of the street and shouted: Lord Qingtian!

And the county guard was dismissed by Li Gongfu with Wang Jian, and it quickly reached Li Miaocai's ears, and now, Li Gongfu has just entered the capital, and he has not yet gone to Lu Chen to report on his work, that is to say, the position of this county guard still has room for maneuver.

Therefore, Li Miaocai found Li Gongfu for the first time, and after the two met, after greeting the normal officialdom, Li Miaocai got straight to the point, he said:

"Lord Li, the case of the river god, this official has heard about it, and the local county guard does have a lot of responsibility, but he is a distant cousin of mine, and he is a decent person, and he has never been corrupt, otherwise, this official would not have come to Lord Li with a thick old face, hehe, Lord Li, do you see if it is ......."

His words can be said to be very straightforward, but after Li Gongfu heard this, he didn't give any affection, but said: "In this matter, Lord Shangshu should find the king to talk about it, the responsibility of the lower officials, and I hope Lord Shangshu will forgive me." ”

"Master Li, you ......"

"Is there anything else Shangshu-sama is going on?" Li Gongfu directly began to drive people away.

You must know that he is only a third-grade official, and Li Miaocai is a first-grade official in the imperial court, with high power and real power, but now, he was directly swept away by Li Gongfu!

"Lord Li is so powerful!" The latter snorted coldly and walked away directly!

"This, this, my lord! That's Lord Shang Shuling! You, you ......" Chen Fang was dumbfounded again!
