Chapter 66
Ximenqing turned around and asked with a smile: "I don't know what the county minister is looking for me?" ”
"Back to the capital, the county magistrate only said that he had something important to look for you, but he didn't say anything?"
nodded, turned around and glanced back, but seeing that the sky was scattered and there was no figure in sight, he sighed and rushed to the county. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
But half an hour, Ximen Qing arrived quickly, entered the county office, and there was already a small servant in the county minister's house, seeing him coming, he hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Come with me, the prince is already waiting." ”
Ximen Qing narrowed his eyes, took out a few taels of broken silver from his bosom and handed it to him, and asked, "Dare to ask the little brother if he knows what the matter is?" ”
The little guy saw the silver, pushed it out, and saw that there was no one left and right, Ximenqing insisted on sending it, so he put the silver in his arms and whispered: "The villain is not clear, but I heard that there is a prince in the court who is coming, and the minister seems to be a little anxious, and several officials in the county are there, so it is better to hurry up." ”
"It's so hard." Ximen Qing arched his hand, and said in his heart that the silver was lost.
As soon as he arrived at the back hall of the county office, he heard someone shouting: "Is Ximen Qingdutou here?" Come in, please. ”
Entering across the door, I saw that there were already a lot of county officials standing in the hall, Ximen Qing and everyone confessed, and stood under the head of Li Dutou.
The magistrate glanced at him, and only said: "I just got an official document from the imperial court, saying that the imperial court is going to send an inspector from Dali Temple and mention the criminal officer Wang Qinian and Wang Xianggong are coming, do you have anything to say?" ”
When the people heard that an inspector was coming, it was as if the hall had been blown up.
"Wang Xianggong, that's the famous Iron Yama."
"I heard that he came to our Dongping Mansion this time to investigate the case."
"How's that okay?"
"Xianggong, Xianggong, why don't we scrape together some silver to pay respects."
"You are confused, the criminal officer is worried that he has no reason to rectify us, you might as well rush to the door to send us to death."
…………
Ximen Qing is a little familiar with the term criminal officer, Song Ci in the hit drama "Da Song Ti Criminal Officer" in his previous life, he was quite impressed, but isn't this criminal officer the main investigator of the prison? How can he panic into this picture, he has never heard of it in later generations, there was an iron-faced and selfless Qing official in the Huizong period.
Glancing at Li Dutou beside him, seeing that his face was pale, and cold sweat was faintly oozing from his forehead, Ximen Qing asked curiously: "Li Dutou, is this Wang Xianggong like a tiger in the mountains?" Why are all the officials with this face? ”
Li Dutou glanced at him and whispered: "You kid has just entered the officialdom, what do you know, that Wang Qinian Wang Xianggong, in our Song Dynasty officialdom, that is a famous star, several times out of Beijing to investigate the case, many local officials have been planted in his hands, especially officials like you and me, that guy is even more ruthless in rectification, hey, don't think that he is just an ordinary criminal officer, that guy is black, this time he is ordered to investigate the case...... Hey, I can't tell you clearly for a while, but you'll know then. ”
Ximenqing nodded, his heart turned out to be the 'central inspection team' came, no wonder they all looked like this, he had just entered the county government at this time, those things that were corrupt and bent the law, he still had time to touch his hands, there was no ghost in his heart, as long as he was careful, he didn't make a substitute for the dead ghost, naturally he was fine, so he also had leisure and carefully looked at the faces of everyone in the hall.
Seeing that everyone was arguing endlessly, the county magistrate slapped the table suddenly, "What are you panicking about?" What is the noise? ”
Being drunk by this, everyone was suddenly silent, and after half a ring, the rich master stood up and said: "Don't panic about this matter, everything is arranged by the county minister, and the criminal officer Wang Ti is not standing outside the county yamen now, nor has he called soldiers to arrest you, but thousands of miles away, even if he comes, we are not afraid of the shadow, and do things honestly. In the end, especially the four words that were unsubstantiated, the money master book said them word by word.
Everyone immediately understood, and praised Master Qian for saying that even if there is still some time before the prince comes, as long as the accounts are read well, carefully, and the things that have no beginning and end are dealt with cleanly, and there is no evidence, even if the official family comes, you can't take people casually.
The magistrate was annoyed for a while, "A bunch of unsuccessful things, only one criminal officer is scared like this, and they all roll down for me." ”
Everyone looked pale, and they were not in the mood to pay attention to the regulations of the county and scold, but they were all thinking about how to wipe the on their bodies, or to plant it to others unknowingly.
Ximen Qing couldn't wait to go back and rest, standing here, it was better to find Jiao Ting and them to have a few glasses of wine, greeted a few familiar county officials, raised his feet and walked out, and before he could take a few steps, a small servant came to call, "Ximen Qingdu is waiting for a while, and the county minister is invited." ”
"Huh? Aren't they all scattered? How to find yourself back again. Ximenqing thought in his heart, and wanted to ask a few more words, but the little guy spoke first, "Don't ask, I don't know if I ask, just follow me." ”
Ximenqing nodded, thinking in his heart, I just entered the county government, what can I do?
Turned over and rushed back, but instead of going to the lobby just now, but to a side hall, when he left, Ximen Qingduo kept a heart, looked left and right, and didn't want to see that the money master and Feng Zhisi also turned back, but they went to the lobby just now.
"Dutou is here for a while, please eat some tea soup and snacks, and the county magistrate will come in a while."
After thanking him for his hard work, he sat on the chair and figured out what was going on with the county minister, the people in this officialdom had too many twists and turns, and one went into someone else's pit without paying attention, and he had to bury the soil, and then send someone a thank you when he was done.
After half an hour, a few footsteps came out of the hall, and Ximen Qing saw it, stood up, and sang: "I have seen the county minister." ”
"You and I don't have to be formal, sit down and talk."
"The little official doesn't dare."
The magistrate pointed at him and said with a smile: "Tsk, you were promoted by me, like my confidant, what are you polite to me?"
"This gift cannot be abolished, besides, your kindness to me is like a reconstruction, how dare the little official be rude in front of you." Ximenqing continued to be humble, he was clear and tight, this guy said no, he was actually happy to be tight in his heart, and he wished everyone was doing this to him.
"I thought you were a straightforward person, how could you learn the way of a person like the money master? Come on, come on, sit down and say. The magistrate seemed to be a little dissatisfied with Ximenqing's humility.
Ximenqing thanked him again, and then sat down to speak.
The county magistrate is not in a hurry to talk about business, and only chats about the east and the west. Ximenqing didn't know what his idea was, and he didn't want to ask rashly, so he was so patient. accompanied him to talk nonsense, but he didn't expect that the two of them were pretending to be chatting happily.
Seeing him like this, Ximen Qingxin said that this is a weasel for a chicken...... Uh, there's definitely something wrong with this thing, I'm afraid it's the incident in the lobby, could it be ............?
Seeing that the sky was about to darken, Ximen Qing also figured out in his henchman, pretending to be impatient and asked: "Zhixian Xianggong, I don't know what happened when Xianggong asked me to come back?" ”
The county magistrate said secretly in his heart: "This kid is a person who can endure his temperament, and he can't bear to ask until now." ”
"Don't mention him, it's just borrowing someone else's power, Simon Dutou, I heard last time, you are a lover of men, good at making friends? There are many powerful people in the family, and when the thieves were eliminated in Crouching Tiger Ridge, thanks to their help, they were able to catch the thieves with half the effort, especially the one named Luan Tingyu."
Ximen Qing was stunned for a moment, nodded yes, and said in his heart: "Didn't you ask knowingly?" “
"Presumably they have a lifelong friendship with you."
