Chapter Seventy-Four: One Thing
On the straw pile in the cell, a man who looked a little old was lying on his side, facing the wall, Chen Guang came in, he turned over and saw that it was a young beggar, sighed, and turned around again. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Chen Guang saw that this person had a thin face, a lot of surroundings on his face, a gray beard, and a lot of grass clippings, he really couldn't imagine that a dignified county order was actually such a respectful face.
He bowed his hand and said loudly: "Your Excellency is Gong Changlong, the county commander of Qingxian County?" In Xia Yang Guang, this is polite. He took out the pseudonym when he was outside the city and fought against Zhou Zhiruojin and them in poetry.
Gong Changlong originally thought that Chen Guang was a beggar who was arrested, but after a glance, he lost interest, the whole city has been arresting beggars in the past few days, and this detention room is almost insufficient, he is no longer surprised. But I didn't expect this young man to come for himself.
He stood up all of a sudden, with a puzzled expression on his face, and asked, "Are you?" "No one has come to see him since his accident, and none of the relatives who usually want to go to his house to get some oil and water have been seen, but he was surprised that one suddenly came to see himβthe most important thing was that he did not know this young man.
Chen Guang inadvertently revealed the gold medal on his waist and said, "I came to find Master Gong to discuss important matters." β
Gold medal!
The waist card is equivalent to an ID card, ordinary people naturally have no chance to have, and there is no need to have it, anyway, what they know is the neighborhood leader and the like, and they want more of a road guide. The waist card is more between scholars and eunuchs, and there is a strict division in the material because of the different identities. Gold, representing the people from the palace.
Gong Changlong naturally didn't dare to slack off, and bowed and said, "The criminal minister ......"
"Shhhhh......h β
Gong Changlong also knew this moment and that time, nodded slightly, and said, "There is no place to sit here......" Before he finished speaking, Chen Guang was already sitting on the hay. "It's good."
Since this Qincha doesn't pay attention to this vulgar etiquette, Gong Changlong naturally won't care about that anymore, and he also sat down.
"I'm from the capital, specifically for this kind of case." Chen Guang whispered.
Gong Changlong's eyes couldn't help but widen? Chincha-sama who investigated the seed case?
Without waiting for Gong Changlong to speak, Chen Guang then asked, "Did you write a piece of music to show the reason why you distributed the tax grain?" β
"Not bad." Gong Changlong said: "Needless to say, the heavy snow the year before last, a disaster and famine for three years, seeing that spring is coming, the people have not yet planted grain, if they miss the season, this year will be deserted again, so the lower official reported to the county guard yamen, first open a warehouse to release grain, let the people plant this land first, and then return this grain when the autumn harvest is due." Unexpectedly, the county keeper did not approve it, so the lower officials had no choice but to dare to open the granary in the county and distribute all the tax grain to the peasants for seeding. Later, the lower official wrote a chapter and presented it to the emperor, but he waited for a long time and did not wait for a reply, and then he was arrested. β
Chen Guangdao: "The emperor has received a piece about you, but this piece was not written by you, but someone else participated in you." said that you are selling your reputation and taking tax grain as a child's play. Fortunately, I later received a secret note, saying that you are doing this for the people, and the emperor felt that there was something strange in this, so he secretly sent me down to investigate. In order to hide people's eyes, the emperor also sent a minister, but the minister and the county guard are the same thing, and the two of them survived for a few days, and then went back to resume their lives. β
"These blood-sucking moths!" After listening to what Chen Guang said at the end, Gong Changlong's eyes widened, he took a deep breath, his expression became very hideous, and his teeth creaked when he spoke, as if he wanted to devour this corrupt official alive.
Chen Guang agrees with his statement very much, in essence, Chen Guang hates corrupt officials, not only corrupt officials, but also swindlers, thieves and robbers......
"These people will definitely be punished as they deserve in the future." Chen Guang said in a very firm tone.
"Before I came in, I had heard a lot about you in several surrounding counties, you are a good official, and I feel fortunate that there is a good official like you in the Great Cadre Country. I came in today to ask you for something. β
"What's that?" Gong Changlong asked.
There was a sound of footsteps from far and near, Chen Guang and Gong Changlong both shut up, Chen Guang turned his head to look, but it turned out that the jailer had returned. With a food box in his hand, the jailer walked over and took out a jug of wine and a few side dishes, and stuffed them into the cell. Chen Guang saw that a plate of sauerkraut leaves, a plate of broad beans, and a plate of sour radish were gone, and he suddenly cursed in his heart: "These blood-sucking moths!" "You can buy these things for a few pennies.
But it's all come to this point, so don't think about eating chicken, duck and fish. The jailer said, "Eat, I'll come and collect it in half an hour." Then he left.
Chen Guang took a pair of chopsticks to Gong Changlong and said with a smile: "Come on, talk while eating." β
Although Gong Changlong is a county magistrate and a court official, there is a saying in ancient times that a falling phoenix is not as good as a chicken, and now Gong Changlong has tasted this taste, and even the little jailer outside has no good face for him now, if it was in the past, this jailer was even more lowly than the subordinates of the county order.
"What did I just say? Oh yes, looking for something, do you know what I want? Chen Guang took a sip of wine and found that this wine only had a faint taste of wine, and it tasted like water, so he immediately frowned.
"I don't know." Gong Changlong was not polite, drank wine, and ate another piece of sour radish, although this is the most ordinary dish, but it is much better than the leftovers in this prison.
Chen Guang said with a smile: "I have already obtained the evidence of Peng Cheng's bribery before, and with this evidence, I believe that I can not only take down Peng Cheng, but also find out a group of hidden corrupt officials." But that's not enough, I'm going to get you out. I'm here today to ask for your form. β
"Like?" Gong Changlong didn't understand, and he didn't go to sue, why did he want to sue?
Chen Guang explained: "Maybe it's more appropriate to say that the excerpt is more appropriate, didn't you write a copy to the emperor before?" The emperor didn't see it, you write another copy now, and I'll give it to the emperor, and that's it. β
Gong Changlong understood, nodded slightly, and said, "Okay." Then he asked, "Now that you and I are both locked up in this prison, even if I write a letter, how can you send it out?" (To be continued.) )
