Chapter 401: Compare with You as a Scoundrel!
The government and the county government are the same, and the three halls of the morning and noon and evening cannot be shaken by thunder, and all the subordinate officials and subordinate officials have to go to the court. However, because it is impossible to be a rookie at the level of the prefect, it is unlikely that the new prefect will not understand anything after taking office, and the morning, afternoon, and evening halls will not be able to procrastinate, and in the end they will all be close together, resulting in a tragic incident in which the subordinate officials and officials have to accompany the whole day. In particular, the evening hall often does not have too much official business, and the evening hall after the application time is often a formality.
Therefore, when Shen Zheng arrived in the afternoon, the government government dispersed. Gao Min came out of the back door as usual, and walked through the back street of the house into his house, and Shi Cai's unsmiling expression in front of the others disappeared, but revealed a sneer of contempt. As he expected, since the man he sent came into contact with those Wufeng thieves in the Green Field Book Garden, these prisoners have never been released to serve hard labor, but have been detained in the prison all along. Obviously, he made it clear that the attack of the chariot and horse made the opponent have to deal with it carefully. It's a pity that since the flaws have been exposed, how can he let them go easily?
However, Gao Min did not find Shao Fang in the study, and after asking the scholar who was waiting here, he learned that Shao Fang went out early in the morning and never came back. Although Shao Fang did not walk through the main gate, but led people out of the back wall, he was still a little unhappy, but after all, Shao Fang was the key person who helped Gao Gong to regain his appearance, and he could come to help him with this knowledge, how could he be too demanding? Rao was like this, and when he sat down on the throne, he still couldn't help but be a little worried.
"I just hope that he won't be in a hurry, thinking that when Boss Ge and the Wufeng thieves were rampant in the southeast, weren't they all fighting in the Yamen of She County?"
"Master Gao is right. I also know that I have piercing eyes. I hired a carriage early. I sat in the car and circled around the She County Yamen, that's all. With the sound outside the door, the door was pushed open with a babbling sound, followed by Shao Fang who stepped over the threshold and came in. He bowed slightly to Gao Minzheng, and then said, "Just looking at the surface, the county government seems to be business as usual, but since the person is in prison. Life and death are naturally left to them to rub, and as the new thief catcher, Gao Da knows it, in my opinion, there are too many variables to wait any longer, and he can draw his salary from the bottom of the kettle. ”
Because Xiaobei and the others sneaked out of the county government at night before, they set off from Xiaobeimen as soon as it was dawn, so Gao Minzheng didn't know. However, he didn't think that Ye Junyao was really waiting to die, so after a series of tentative combinations, he also decided to strike quickly, and Shao Fang's suggestion undoubtedly hit his heart. However. He was about to answer when a heart-rending shout came from outside.
"Lord Qingtian. You're going to call the shots for me! ”
With this voice, chaotic cries and shouts followed, Rao is Gao Minzheng only felt a little bit of diaphragm in his heart at first, and at this moment, his face changed unconsciously. And Shao Fang immediately suggested: "Lord Gao, please go out and have a look, I'm afraid things have changed." ”
Gao Minzheng didn't have time to think about it, nodded and immediately left the study, and when he arrived at the gate of the two small courtyards, he saw the situation outside the door clearly, Rao is he had expected it in advance, and he couldn't help but gasp at this moment. Because at this moment, on the back street in front of him, there are twenty or thirty people kneeling at the gate of his house, men, women and children, and the most shocking thing is that when he came out, a large number of people all got up and surrounded him, and then talked about their own situation.
"My lord, my family has been a thief for three years, and the only valuable thing in the family, a pair of silver bracelets, has been stolen, and there is no whereabouts so far!"
"What is it if you lose a pair of silver bracelets, my family has lost a gold lock, an interlocking piece with a chain that weighs one or two halves!"
"My lord, aren't you a thief? My child has been abducted for many years, please uphold justice! ”
In this hustle and bustle, listening to these gossip voices, Gao Minzheng finally realized what kind of situation he was facing right now. The reason why he got this position of thief arrester, needless to say, is because of his outstanding performance in the Suzhou Prefecture magistrate, but he has been a second official instead of a seal official for two consecutive terms, which is really humiliating for him, a two-list jinshi, not to mention the word arrest and theft, for him who aspires to be a famous minister, it is equivalent to a mark. And now these bitter masters are blocking the door with the case of I don't know how many years ago, and they keep saying that he, the thief and the thief, is in charge, which undoubtedly deepens this mark.
Why did he wipe his ass for those incompetent former prefects or county commanders in one of the six counties of Huizhou?
Gao Minzheng only felt that the blue tendons on his forehead trembled slightly, as if he would burst out of anger at any time. He just wanted to scold, but he didn't expect someone in the crowd to shout: "Lord Gao, our Huizhou Mansion used to have no arrest and thief knowledge, and now that you have taken office, the long-term peace and stability of the six counties of this mansion are all counting on your old man!" It is said that the new official took office with three fires, and asked you to help a group of people, for the rich people it is just a few taels of silver and a few taels of gold, but for everyone, it is the life of the family, not to mention that those abductors are hateful to the extreme, if you can eradicate these people, we are willing to give you an immortal tablet! ”
"Yes, not only the immortal tablet, let's build an ancestral hall for you!"
"Gao Qingtian, let's beg your old man!"
Seeing that the large number of people in front of him were all kneeling, the corners of Gao Minzheng's mouth twitched, and he finally realized that the so-called Xiucai met the soldiers, and it was reasonable to say what kind of situation it was. He had to suppress his anger and bitterly told everyone that he was a fellow intellectual, not the county magistrate in charge of a county prison, nor the magistrate in charge of a government's criminal name. Everyone seemed to grasp the last straw, begging Gao Minzheng to be able to hang the mirror and give them justice.
Gao Min was struggling with his lips and tongue, and his mouth was almost dry, but he only persuaded a few people to go back and officially go to the mansion to plead their case, but the others refused to disperse. And it was only at this time that the new thief arrester realized another problem, that is, why the magistrate can only live in the official house of the yamen according to the rules, and cannot live outside, in fact, it is also a disguised way to put an end to this kind of statement of being blocked and demanding justice! Although it is impossible to forbid the injustices, the people are stopped by people when they travel on weekdays. It's better than not being able to move like this!
In the private seat on the second floor of a small teahouse far away from the crowd. Wang Fulin squinted his eyes at this scene directed by himself. But there is no joy in my heart. The news that Gao Min is taking office to arrest thieves and Tongzhi, of course, he let people spread it, but there are so many people who all come over at this time, hoping that Lord Qingtian will uphold justice, which is really an unexpected joy, but when you think about it, it is a little sad - although he mixed a few people like sand, he also inquired about the least number of people in She County, and they were all petty theft cases that the government did not accept. But cases such as child abduction in other counties are really worrying.
Since Ye Junyao took office, the Huazi boats in Yuliang Town, which are specially used to transport abducted boys, women and children, have been blatantly attacked at the beginning and rarely show up now, which shows that the governance policy and skills of the magistrates are very important. He wanted to see how Gao Min would deal with the people who pinned their hopes on him!
Although Shao Fang was in the inner courtyard, and none of the servants of the Gao family in the outer courtyard knew about his existence, he heard that there was still a lot of movement outside, and Gao Minzheng did not come back as soon as he went, and immediately realized that the matter was more serious than expected. Even if you know that the outside world is probably not only a trap for Gao Minzheng. It may also be to lure out his gloves, but he can't wait here forever. Got up and walked out of the study. He looked around, leaving two of his attendants at home, and climbed over the wall adjacent to the house next door.
Carefully avoiding human eyes, he drew gourds and climbed over the walls of several houses, and he picked out the front door of a house that happened to be empty, and then he arrived on the street in front of the house.
When he heard what was going on from passers-by, he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart - Gao Min was actually driven to the shelves! Just like what they did before when they sent people to contact the Wufeng thieves, so many bitter masters pleaded for justice and begged for justice, and if they didn't accept it, they would lose their reputation and lose the hearts of the people, and if they did, they would be complained about by the county orders! But the means are really scoundrels!
Shao Fang came out of the main entrance of other people's houses on this street, and did not wear a hat, because although this can hide his appearance, it looks even more suspicious. It's just that Wang Fulin, who has been carefully observing the lively idlers around on the second floor of the teahouse, noticed this unusual audience for the first time. When he saw the person's face, he finally couldn't help but drop the folding fan in his hand and stand up straightforwardly.
It turned out to be Shao Fang! There is nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it!
He said to Xiao Zhenyue beside him at the moment: "Have you seen it, remember this person, that is the famous Danyang Shao Daxia in the southeast!" ”
From such a long distance, even Shao Fang had always been vigilant, but he didn't notice Wang Fulin's gaze. However, he had been hidden before, and now that he had appeared, he was ready to be recognized by Wang Fulin. However, unlike the last time in Hankou Town, that time it was the second master Bao who was watching Shao Fang took the initiative to identify himself, and Wang Fulin's brain was planted on others, and in the end, he was blinded by the article behind the fight, which is called a blind cat encountering a dead mouse. Now Shao Fang thinks that he has not done anything in Huizhou, everything has Gao Minzheng, not to mention that Gao Minzheng has ironclad evidence in his hand, and he is not afraid of Wang Fulin's old tricks repeatedly.
Therefore, after turning around a long time, although he did not enter from the main gate of the Gao family generously, he walked directly through the back door of the Gao family. When he returned to the study, he instructed the scholar: "You go out and tell your master that the matter has come to this, so it is better to promise those bitter masters with the snake first." Since others use this kind of trick, then we have nothing to be polite about, and then we will deal with these trivial and broken things after finishing the business, at that time, we suppressed the power of the new Ye Observation, even if we don't have to take out the name of Yuan Weng, we can directly send these cases to the county order to which they belong and order them to solve them! ”
In a moment, Gao Minzheng got Shao Fang's message. Thinking about the lesser of two evils, he immediately listened to Shao Fang's suggestion and promised to give an answer within three days, which finally coaxed this group of people away. As soon as they dispersed, he snorted coldly and shook his hand into the door, and his heart was also ruthless.
If you dare to come to this hand with him, then he doesn't have to wait, and he will attack directly tomorrow! (To be continued......)
