It was getting late, and it was raining cold autumn rain outside, and Wang Xianling of Xinzhu County sat in the back hall of the county office, holding a book in his hand and reading fascinated. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Whenever Wang Xian Ling saw this new coal furnace, he couldn't help but smile a little, because this new coal furnace is produced in their county, Ma Ye of Pingyang Princess Mansion built a coal furnace workshop in the county, specializing in this kind of coal furnace, in addition to the honeycomb coal workshop, these workshops can provide a lot of taxes for their county, and the people used in the workshop are also poor people in Xinzhu County, and now their lives have been greatly improved, these are real achievements!

"Who said that it is difficult to be an official among the powerful in the land, if there are a few more powerful people like Princess Pingyang in the county, then I will be comfortable!" Wang Xianling said as he picked up a pot of wine next to him, took a sip on the wine jug, and showed a satisfied smile on his face.

Speaking of Wang County Ling is also from a family, and it is also one of the five surnames and seven hopes of the Taiyuan Wang family, when His Majesty raised troops, their Wang family also made great efforts, so after the founding of the Tang Dynasty, their Wang clan also benefited a lot, even if he was a side branch of the Wang family, he also got the post of county order because of a little thin name.

Originally, Xinzhu County was a poor county, but now because Princess Pingyang has opened various workshops, which has directly or indirectly driven the industry in the county, Wang County's political performance has also risen one by one.

Thinking of the above, the smile on Wang Xianling's face became even brighter, that is, he could benefit one party and earn a future for himself, which is probably the dream of all readers.

"Knock knock~" But just when Wang Xianling was dreaming of being promoted, he was suddenly awakened by a rapid drum sound outside, which made him stand up and say in surprise, "Who is beating the drum outside?" ”

The Dengwen drum set up outside the county government, commonly known as the drum of injustice, has appeared in the Jin Dynasty, and the Dengwen drum is generally set up outside the government at all levels in the Sui and Tang dynasties, and it is also stipulated that as long as the drum is sounded, the chief official must accept it, otherwise the crime will be added to the first degree. However, the drumming drum is not so easy to beat, and the person who beats the drum must have a reason to beat the drum, and if the chief officer thinks that the person who beats the drum has insufficient reasons, he will definitely be punished heavily, and the light will be given a heavy punishment or the rod will be killed

It is precisely because of the above that Wang Xianling will be so surprised when he hears the drums outside, although Xinzhu County is a little poor, but the people are not bad, and the biggest problem is nothing more than serious gambling, so in the two years since he took office, it was the first time he encountered someone who dared to hit the drum.

With Wang County's inquiry, someone immediately ran to check, and soon ran back to report: "Qiqi County Order, the people outside beat the drum and complained directly, saying that someone robbed the people's daughter, and he came to beat the drum in desperation!" ”

"What? There will be such a thing under the rule of this official, and he will be promoted immediately! When Wang Xianling heard that someone dared to rob the people's daughter, he slapped the table angrily and said, such a vicious case naturally has to be tried in person, not to mention that the other party also beat the drum.

At that moment, Wang Xianling ascended to the hall, only to see a wet young man running below, his hair was messy, his beard was unkempt, his face was also very haggard, and he looked very depressed. ”

"Who is in the hall, where does the family live, and if there are any grievances, just say it!" Wang Xian ordered a shot of the wooden road.

"Qiyu County Zun, the villain's name is Chen Pi, he lives in Jinjia Village, East Wuli of the county, and the life of a family of three is quite passable, but some time ago, my Hun family was seduced away, and even my daughter was taken away, I looked for a long time to find them, I wanted to take them home, but I didn't think about it but was beaten, you look at the villain's chest, and the scars left by the villain they beat the villain yesterday!" Chen Pi is the real name of the rotten dog skin, he not only directly distorted the facts, but also beat a rake, slandering Li Xiu for seducing his wife.

"There is such an evil deed under the rule of this official, Chen Pi, tell me who the person who seduced your wife is, and this official is the master for you!" Wang County Commander was also very angry when he heard this, and when such a thing happened under his rule, his county order was also gloomy.

"Qiyu County Zun, this person's name is Li Xiu, I heard that there is an official body, the villain really can't fight him, and please ask the county to be the villain's master!" Rotten Dogskin shouted without hesitation, he didn't inquire about Li Xiu's origin at all, and he didn't even know what Li Xiu's official position was, but he was now a rotten life anyway, even if he didn't sue **** Xiu, he would get into trouble, and he would be even more afraid of going to prison, anyway, he was still worried that he had no place to sleep and eat.

"Li Xiu!" Wang Xianling couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this familiar name, and then asked in disbelief, "Are you talking about the Li Xiu Li sacrifice wine who lives in the north of the city, and his house is adjacent to the courtyard of Princess Pingyang's family?" ”

"Yes, it was this wicked man who robbed the villain's wife and daughter!" The rotten dog skin insisted on it, and now he knew that Li Xiu's official position was originally a sacrificial wine, but he didn't know what kind of official the sacrificial wine was, and even thought in his heart, this sacrificial wine wouldn't be a petty official in charge of winemaking, right?

"Bastard, Li Xianjiu is talented, known all over Chang'an, and he is not married, I don't know how many noble girls in the entire Chang'an City want to marry him, how can such a person rob the wife and daughter of a person like you?" Wang Xianling was furious when he heard this.

Wang Xianling has not only heard of Li Xiu's name for a long time, but also the last time the imperial court let the waterwheel be built, it was Li Xiu who helped Ma Ye rectify the waterwheel workshop, which greatly increased the efficiency of the workshop.

"The villain is wronged, then Li Xiu did rob the villain's wife and daughter, and now they are in Li Xiu's mansion, if the county lord doesn't believe it, the villain can take you to his mansion to find someone!" The rotten dog skin is an oath, he has already let it out, and he just wants to make this matter bigger, so that Li Xiu will lose face, so as to relieve the hatred in his heart.

Seeing that the rotten dog skin was so sure, Wang County Ling couldn't help but be a little suspicious, although he had indirectly seen Li Xiu's talent, but he had never seen Li Xiu, let alone knew who he was, in case he really did something to rob the people's daughters, then he, the county order, could not bend the law for personal gain because of Li Xiu's identity, and even if he didn't care, if this Chen Pi sued again, then he would not be able to escape the involvement.

Thinking of the above, Wang Xianling finally nodded and said, "Okay!" Didn't you say that your wife and daughter were at Li Xijiu, and the official would go with you! (To be continued.) )
