Chapter Seventy-Eight: Can't Keep Up with the Pace
Early the next morning, Lian Jin bathed again and changed into a new set of clothes.
After breakfast, I took a small package and walked outside the county yamen.
The two officials stepped forward and were about to intercept them, but Lian Jin threw the burden in front and showed the appointment document of the imperial court: "I am the new magistrate of this county, so I will go and inform the county government to meet me in the main hall as soon as possible." ”
The new magistrate?
So fast?
Yacha was at a loss, and hurriedly ran to call someone.
There was an appointment document to open the way, Lian Jin walked all the way to the county government hall, and under the plaque hanging by the mirror, he took out the official uniform from the package and changed into this 'green' official uniform.
Even after the Jin was replaced, the public officials in the county government also came, waiting aside, looking at the new county honor, they didn't dare to come out.
How many days has it been?
From the day of Luo Xianzun's violent death, it is only the third day today, and the imperial court has appointed a new county commander?
Lian Jin handed over the letter of appointment to the county master and asked him to read out the appointment, and after the reading was completed, Lian Jin officially took over the post of magistrate of Xiangcheng County.
Since Luo Xianzun is dead, Lian Jin's side will no longer read out Luo Zhixian's document of returning to his hometown, but after remembering it, he will let their respective people submit a simple report on the things to be dealt with in the county in the past two days, as well as the big and small matters in the county.
Here, I wrote another job document and asked people to send it to Liang County to the governor of Ruzhou.
At noon, after a hasty lunch, Lian Jin visited the Tidian Criminal Prison Department of Yingchang Mansion as the magistrate of Xiangcheng County and the death of the former magistrate, and then met Zheng Ci in the county government of Zhizhou.
Both of them are the prince Zhao Heng's faction, Lian Jin expressed condolences to Zheng Ci on behalf of the prince, Zheng Ci was very grateful, and the latter two were polite and cold. Only then did Lian Jin bring up the matter of Luo Xianzun's case.
Zheng Ci seriously told Lian Jin the causes and details of these two cases.
Lian Jin informed Zheng Ci of some of the information he had secretly investigated in the past two days, and when the two things were paired, he found that there were many details that did not match, and there were many places that could not stand scrutiny.
Immediately, Zheng Ci ordered Zhen Duan to review the truth of some details.
has always been Zheng Rong's competitor and rival, Zhen Duan worked very hard after getting the order.
It wasn't until the evening that Zhen Duan came back with the results.
Although Zhen Duan worked very hard, the information that could be found was limited, and even this limited brought the whole thing a ray of light.
Among them, the brotherly relationship between Zheng Ba and Zheng Rong was discovered.
When there was a tragedy in Jiangdian Town, Zheng Rong and the little official Zhang You went to Jiangdian Town.
Zheng Ci ordered again, and ordered Zhen Duan to bring the little official Zhang You over for questioning, seeing that Zhang You was vague, Zheng Ci angrily directly ordered Zhen Duan to interrogate him, how could Zhen Duan let go of this opportunity to defeat Zheng Ci and to the left?
Zhang You couldn't survive the torture, and under the interrogation, he confessed everything.
Zhen Duan's face was full of spring breeze, and he handed over the result to Zheng Ci with a smile on his face.
After Lian Jin glanced at the results, he knew that his goal had been achieved, so he got up and said goodbye.
When leaving, he turned around and added: "These two people, I personally suggest that it is better to hand them over to the one in Rufen Town, which may have an unexpected effect." ”
……
At dawn the next day, a messenger rode a fast horse to the town of Rufen, and when everyone was very nervous, he just sent a letter to Li Chu's small courtyard and rode away.
What's the situation, this yacha didn't arrest Li Chu?
Li Chu looked at the letter in his hand, and was a little stunned.
What's the situation?
Ah Xiu quickly snatched the letter from Li Chu's hand and opened it, she didn't know how to read, and she couldn't understand it after reading it for a long time, so she handed the letter to Yang Kang and asked Yang Kang to read it to her.
When Yang Kang finished reading the contents of the letter, Li Chu was stunned.
Even Ah Xiu had an unbelievable expression.
Yesterday, I still couldn't stop the news, so that Ah Xiu didn't know where to hear the rumors about Li Chu, last night, but Ah Xiu was worried, and hugged Li Chu for a night.
The content of the letter is roughly said that this self-proclaimed Lian Jin is the new county honorable, and he felt that there were many strange things in these two things, so he spent money and relationships, and directly opened up the relationship between the Criminal and Prison Division, and asked the official Zheng Ci to re-investigate the case in detail, and the final result was that Li Chu had nothing to do, and he was praised for exterminating the bullies who attacked the officers and soldiers.
Then, the two evil leaders who framed Li Chu, Zheng Rong and Zhang You, have been put off their posts by the Criminal Division, and they have committed suicide in fear of crime in the prison of the Criminal Division.
However, this suicide was a notice from the government, but in fact, the two people were secretly sent to Li Chu and handed over to Li Chu for disposal, and now, the two have set off from Yingchang Mansion.
At the end of the letter, this Lian Xianzun said that he had paid a great price for this matter, and hoped that Li Chu would send 5,000 pieces of silver to his mansion in the next two days.
5,000 kan!
Li Chu didn't know what to say.
At this moment, he is a capitalized fool.
He hadn't turned a corner for a while.
This side is struggling with the plan to rebel to preserve, as a result, this thing is like a willow and a flower, the change is too fast, one moment I was still worried about my family, the next moment, there is nothing left, the wind is light, and the sky is blue.
Five thousand guan, this Lian County Zun, the asking price is really ruthless.
is not only ruthless, but also very undisciplined, if you want it to be above board, if you want it to be a red fruit, Li Chu can't refuse to accept it at all!
"This money ......"
Ah Xiu looked at Li Chu and didn't know what to do.
Give, must give!
If you really want to do what the letter says, you will also send Zheng Rong and Zhang You over to Li Chu to deal with, regardless of whether this matter is whether this Lian County Zun has worked hard or not, Li Chu can't refuse to give this letter alone.
Luo Xianzun's violent death made Li Chu realize his shortcomings.
Li Chu, there is really a lack of a person who can speak for himself in the officialdom, this Lian Xianzun threw an olive branch to himself, Li Chu had no choice but to pull.
Five thousand guan, it is a bit ruthless, it is estimated that this county respect, I am afraid that he is a greedy person, after this, it seems that he has to keep a certain distance from him, not too far, not too close, so as not to be remembered.
It doesn't matter, anyway, I ransacked Zheng Ba's family property, five thousand yuan, it's trivial.
This matter is regarded as a transaction, with 5,000 yuan to buy without rebellion, to buy the time for early development, when Li Chu is up, no one can threaten himself anymore.
Speaking of which, if this is the case, I am afraid that Li Chu will have to thank this Lian County Zun for his affection.
After all, with Li Chu's current political situation, it was not possible to spend 5,000 taels.
Two hours later, the escort personnel from Yingchang Mansion also arrived and escorted Zheng Rong and Zhang You to Li Chu.
The two were dressed in white prison uniforms, wore shackles and anklets, and were pressed to kneel at Li Chu's feet.
Zhang You, with a dead face.
Zheng Rong was resentful, his eyes were staring at Li Chu viciously, his mouth had been smashed during the interrogation in the Criminal Division, and he couldn't speak, so he could only use his eyes instead of his mouth, and shoot the vicious words in his heart.
"Thank you to the four poor brothers for sending them all the way, but I still have to bother the four poor brothers, can I escort these two to a place at the end of the town?"
Li Chu said with a smile, and at the same time took out a silver ingot weighing ten taels from between his sleeves and gave it to one of the yacha.
"It's easy to say, Commander Li doesn't have to be polite."
The silver ingot was in his hand, and as soon as he weighed the weight, the teeth of the yacha smile were exposed.
