"Is there no room for a clean official in the world now? First it was Lord Li Ba, and now it's Lord Yan's turn! Chen Jialuo's previous inadvertent actions actually received an unexpected gain, and he transferred Li Ba away through Heshen's people just because he didn't want to have a head-on conflict with an upright official, but under the brain of this showman, it turned out to be the evidence of the bad money in the officialdom to get rid of the good money!

He looks like he's in his thirties, right? In his thirties, he has not yet been promoted in the examination, and it seems that the prospects are not good, and it is no wonder that he has so many complaints about the imperial court in his heart, presumably because he has put the responsibility for his failure in the imperial examination for many years on the examiner's corruption and bribery; Just as most of the revolutionaries in later generations came from doctors, journalists, and teachers, from Huang Chao to Hong Xiuquan in the ancient Celestial Empire, this landing Xiucai was one of the main sources of rebels.

"Hey, if you want to say that this Lord Yan is here, our lives are better!" The landlord sighed, "First I built a dam to protect my family's land, and then there was a collective farm to teach the skills of farming, and the taxes collected after the autumn harvest were much less than in the past!" Now the thieves of this evil tiger village have not moved for a long time, and the year that Lord Yan came here can top the previous three years, if this Lord Yan leaves this good life, there will be no more! ”

"Xiucaigong, you are a well-informed scholar, tell us that this Lord Yan is really leaving?" , The owner of the teahouse persuaded not to move and asked, his teahouse was also opened in the increasingly prosperous situation of Fuding, if it was really as Xiucai said, this business would be lost to grandma's house 5 After turning around and calling Xuan, "Go to my room and open the bag of tea on the table to Xiucai Gong to make a pot, and then serve a few good snacks." ", in the end, he is a businessman, he knows the truth of wanting to give first, and he turns around and bows his hand to Xiucai." The Longjing brought by an old friend from Hangzhou, and only elegant people like Xiucai Gong can taste one or two, and we rough people drink it is a pearl secretly cast, and I hope that Xiucai Gong will not dislike it. ”

The level of these words made Xiucai unable to refuse, and Xiucai laughed twice. "The shopkeeper's reputation is excessive, I'm just a poor talent, how can I have the money to drink good tea before, and I can't repay it, only to tell the shopkeeper the truth in this!" , The merchants and landlords on the side hurriedly pulled Xiucai to sit on the top, and the shopkeeper also sat down at the bottom, seeing that the eyes of the entire teahouse were focused on themselves, Xiucai's vanity was greatly satisfied. "This is going to start with the discussion of the guilty silver, if it weren't for the discussion of the guilty silver, Lord Yan might be able to work for two more years, but now that there is the discussion of the guilty silver, Lord Yan has to go!"

"Well, what's going on with this sin silver? Why does Lord Yan have to go with this thing? The shopkeeper asked.

"This discussion is a new policy promulgated by the imperial court in order to raise military salaries, and it is mainly aimed at these officials. Probably that if these officials commit a crime, they can reduce the punishment or even exonerate themselves by handing over a sum of money to the emperor! ”。 Xiucai said indignantly, "You think, as the saying goes, being an official for thousands of miles is only for money, in previous years, these officials were still afraid of punishment from the court, and they inevitably had to cover up one or two, but now it's good." If you pay the money, you can be exonerated G, what are they afraid of? It's a big deal to pay 10,000 taels of silver, and then get it back from the people, there may be so many Qing officials in the court in Y year, but as soon as this money comes out, I'm afraid that this Qing official will be difficult to find! ”

"But Lord Yan, he's not a corrupt official, right? What does it have to do with this money? The landlord still didn't understand. Keep asking.

"The bad thing is that Lord Yan is not a corrupt official!" , Xiucai's folding fan slapped the table, and said indignantly, "Lord Yan, he is not greedy, but he is in the way of others, think about it, why are there so many taxes in previous years?" Could it be that the county magistrate can swallow it alone? The prefect wants to take it, the prefect wants to take it, the governor's yamen wants to take it, and the governor's yamen also wants to take it! There are already rules on how much money each should take, and now that Lord Yan doesn't ask you to collect money, isn't it just a shortening of the prefect, governor and governor's money, think about it, if you are the prefect, you can't tolerate Yan Zhixian to continue to be an official? ”

As soon as these words came out, the teahouse became silent, and after a while, the shopkeeper muttered, "I can't tolerate it, I can't tolerate it!" ”

"Isn't it!" , Xiucai slapped the table again, picked up the folding fan and pointed at the others on the table, "Wait for Lord Yan to leave, don't say that it is next year's tax, this year you all have to make up for 5 uncertain and add a few acres of land to get through this difficulty, I am afraid that your teahouse will not be able to return to its roots, and you haven't paid a few times in and out of the county these days, right?" I'll have to double it next year! ”

"What should I do?" , The expression of pain on the face of the landlord, it was not easy to save a few dollars this year, and said that when the year is closed, see who can't afford to buy a few more acres of land.

"What should I do?" , Xiucai sneered, "Anyway, I'm a poor Xiucai, no matter how much I toss, I can't toss it, you better think about it yourself!" ”

"Hey, since ancient times, the people didn't fight with the officials, gritted their teeth and endured for a few years, maybe the next county order is a good official?" , How else to say that the landlord is weak, this heart inkstone has not left, and the landlord is going to admit it.

"That's all you have!" , Xiucai sneered, "If someone dares to take my family's silver, I will fight hard to break the blood and make him bleed!" ”

"Be careful!" , The shopkeeper panicked again, and said in a low voice, "Xiucaigong, if you want to lose your head!" ”

"What are you afraid of!" , Xiucai instead raised his voice, "Now that the emperor is in the capital, he still has time to take care of these things, I see, I'm afraid it's going to change the sky!" ”

"Master/I beg you, whisper no!" , the shopkeeper is about to kneel down for Xiucai!

"Xiucai, what do you say is going to change the sky?" , a man dressed as a martial artist with two iron galls in his hand came over and asked; Hey, isn't this the fourth sister-in-law's people, how did you get here? Chen Jialuo secretly guessed.

This Xiucai did not have the contempt and fear of ordinary literati when they saw Wufu, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "Haven't you heard? There is news in Beijing, saying that His Majesty is not the blood of the first emperor Yongzhengye, Prince Zhuang and some noble princes rebelled and ran to the northeast, and they are gathering troops and horses to kill back to the capital! I think the world is going to be in chaos! ”

This was too scary, Xiucai didn't dare to stay longer, and after speaking, he didn't care about enjoying the Longjing tea presented by the shopkeeper, and immediately got up and left; Slowly, the news of the chaos in Beijing and Lord Yan's departure spread throughout the county and also spread to the barracks.
