Yan Heng followed Xiong Zhixian and was introduced into a flower hall by the people of the prefect's yamen.

However, Yan Heng is only an attendant now, and he can't sit on the official hat chair like Xiong Zhixian and wait for the prefect to appear.

Boredom, he had to look at the furnishings of the flower hall.

Wu Daozi's paintings, Zhang Xu's wild grass, Liu Huainan's books, Ruyao's bead bottles, and the goose yellow peony mentioned by Zhang Dai in "Tao'an Dream Memories" are planted next to the rockery outside the window.

I have to admit that this prefect is generous and generous, there is a way to be an official and not to cultivate the yamen, he is good, the yamen are all dressed magnificently, how unscrupulous is this, I am afraid that others will not know that he is rich?

The two waited for a long time and did not see the prefect Wang Tong come out, but one after another, other officials who came to the prefect's yamen to discuss matters saw the prefect Wang Tong first, and happily left the prefect's yamen accompanied by the staff of the prefect's palace.

Yan Heng could see that the prefect of the king seemed to be very unwilling to see his mentor Xiong Zhixian, because he had drunk three cups of tea from his mentor, and he didn't see the prefect summoning him.

"Teacher, this Wangfutai seems to be very busy", Yan Heng asked in a low voice, although it is not easy to ask why the Wang Governor's Mansion has not seen his teacher for so long, but it is still necessary to knock on the side, after all, he can't stand like this.

"Wait, this Wang Futai has a rule when he sees the officials below, it's not who comes first to see whom, whoever pays more money will see whoever first, your teacher and I haven't paid a penny, so naturally we have to wait."

Yan Heng didn't know what to say, he had always liked the kind of person who would do things when he looked at the money, but now his teacher was unwilling to give money, and the purpose of his current and his teacher was not to ask the governor to do things, but to show his hole cards.

Therefore, Yan Heng didn't want to pay for his mentor anymore, but asked his mentor: "Teacher, students dare to ask, why did you first come to see this Wangfutai?" ”

"The Yuan River Inspection Division has a tax silver belonging to Fenyi County that was intercepted by the people of the prefect's yamen, and the official is here to ask for silver."

Xiong Zhixian replied.

Yan Heng couldn't help but smile dumbly after hearing this, seeing that Shangguan has never been easy to send money, and it is even more difficult to ask for money, how can there be a reason to spit it out after eating it in his stomach.

Therefore, Yan Heng couldn't help but ask Xiong Xiu from Zhixian County again: "Does the teacher think that this Wangfutai will meet you?" ”

Xiong Zhixian shook his head with a wry smile, and said: "This official knows that if he wants to return this silver, and the people of his prefect's yamen have already secretly issued the news, it is impossible to get a good evaluation without three thousand taels of this plan, and this government is still considered for the sake of this official, saying that the tax silver of the inspection department is worth two thousand taels, and the official only needs to pay one thousand taels." ”

"It's a joke, whether it's three thousand taels or one thousand taels, the official won't pay it!"

Xiong Zhixian slammed the table, obviously angry.

Yan Heng took advantage of this and decided to simply fan the flames:

"Teacher, since we are here for a showdown, why bother waiting here, it is better to make a big fuss and force this prefect to come out, you pretend to be angry and tell him that you have already impeached him, it is best to make the whole prefect know, maybe this can be seen by His Majesty's ears and eyes, anyway, the more heartless you behave, the better!"

Xiong Zhixian was already hot-tempered, and when he heard Yan Heng say this, he simply stood up and roared angrily to let the people from the prefect's yamen call their master out.

But no one paid attention to Xiong Zhixian, and they all seemed to pretend not to hear.

Seeing this, Yan Heng hurriedly handed the pair of Ruyao Lianzhu bottles to Xiong Zhixian:

"Teacher, it's not okay to roar, where is this prefect of the king's mansion hidden, this Ruyao bottle should be worth a lot of money, smash it!"

After Yan Heng finished speaking, Xiong Zhixian snatched it and threw it to the ground.

"Teacher, have you seen that peony flower, it is very valuable, Uncle Ouyang Shi said that it is worth a high price of several hundred taels", as soon as Yan Heng's words fell, Xiong Zhixian walked over and picked up a stone and prepared to smash it at the peony flower.

"Come and help, this stone is a bit heavy."

Poor rich peony flowers, and now they are crushed and fallen all over the ground, and the residual leaves fall into the water, and now they are in the dust.

"Whoever is surnamed Wang, come out! Don't think that you are a dignified man, I am afraid of you, to tell you the truth, I have already entered the capital directly to join you, thinking that I am a dignified son of heaven, two Jinshi, and I was pressed down by your useless prefect who was full of copper smell, and now I don't care about this black veil, so I simply make a fuss! ”

Xiong Zhixian seems to have been out of control, desperately poisoning the peony flowers.

"Oh, my flowers!"

Hurried footsteps ran over, and a red-robed official ran over, crying with tears in his eyes and holding the peony remnants and crying so much that his liver and intestines were broken.

Xiong Zhixian saw that the prefect of Wang had finally come out, so he stopped scolding, snorted, flicked his sleeves, and was ready to leave with his legs.

"Stop!"

Wang Zhifu slapped his knees, drank a sigh, and pointed at Xiong Xiu: "Okay, you Xiong Zhixian, this official is not finished with you!" ”

"You're not done with me, I'm still going to be done with you! This official hates a corrupt official like you the most, relying on himself to be a superior official, deducting my county tax and silver for no reason, and clearly asking for silver from his subordinates. ”

Xiong Zhixian walked away dashing and fearlessly, at this time he was very much like a warrior, walking open-mindedly and fearlessly.

The people of the prefect's yamen did not dare to stop him, after all, he was also an official of the imperial court.

Yan Heng followed behind Xiong Zhixian and quietly saw Liu Jiansheng, a prefect he had met before.

The two looked at each other and nodded to each other.

This Liu supervisor is the brother of Master Liu, a staff member around Xiong Zhi County, who has donated a prison identity and eats this bowl of rice from the master.

Liu Jiansheng accepted Yan Heng's silver, and naturally he had to do things according to Yan Heng's words, so he walked here and asked: "Master, Xiong Zhixian has a fellow senior brother in the capital who is a Hanlin, if he really wants to sue you, I am afraid that the future will be a lot of trouble." ”

"Hmph, he has someone in the court, is there no one in the court, and the official is not afraid of him sueing, since ancient times, subordinates suing the official is the following taboo, not to mention that he is not an official, I don't know who is dead or who is alive;

Immediately write a letter to the official and deliver it to the official's uncle overnight, and by the way, prepare two filial piety copies to send to the hometown of Wange and the hometown of Zhou Zongbo, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites! And by the way, hand the slip to their butler in the capital! ”

Liu Jiansheng hurriedly complied.

Here, Xiong Zhixian sighed as soon as he came out: "At this moment, this official has completely broken with his Wang Governor's Mansion, but thinking about what he did just now, it is really painful, and this evil breath that he has endured for several years has finally come out." ”

"The teacher is jealous and hateful, angry for the people, and his righteous deeds will be famous all over the world tomorrow, and this stagnant Jiangxi officialdom will also set off big waves because of your actions, which is not spectacular."

Yan Heng is telling the truth, a county order angrily reprimands the prefect for the people, this kind of good story, Wenqu Shuzhai naturally has to do some publicity, not to mention the propaganda for his own teacher.

"What should I do next?"

The reason why Xiong Zhixian asked Yan Heng this was that he really didn't know what to do, he had never thought that he had been so radical and bold today, so he was a little confused while he was excited.
