In addition, the official uniforms of the Song Dynasty, the color is also divided with the different grades, basically the same as the Tang Dynasty, but there are differences in writing, the Tang Dynasty is more than three grades, wearing purple official robes, and the Song Dynasty is more than four grades, you can wear purple official robes. Purple for four or more grades; Crimson color is used for more than six grades; Green is used for nine grades and above. According to the regulations, those who wear purple and scarlet clothes are to be equipped with fish bags decorated with gold and silver, and the high and low positions are clearly distinguished by this object.

Now this self-proclaimed mansion is dressed in a purple robe, embroidered with landscape patterns, and wearing a pair of winged official hats on his head, according to the words of later generations, he is dressed in formal clothes. There is a whitebait bag with no trim hanging on it. It should be dressed in the official uniform of the fourth grade.

The official system of the Song Dynasty was also very peculiar, and many people's official positions were on a long list, but the size of their power still depended on the specific affairs they were responsible for. For example, Bao Zheng in the back, Longtuge Zhishu, Hebei Metropolitan Transport Envoy, Gaoyang Guan Road are deployed to pacify the envoy, and know Yangzhou. Among them, the bachelor of Longtu Pavilion is a false title, indicating the grade, and the Hebei transfer envoy in the back, the Gaoyang Guan Road pacification envoy, is the official position he once did, and he is no longer in office, or he has a false name, and finally knows that Yangzhou is his actual official position.

The imperial court often adopts the method of sending local officials to manage specific affairs, which is also one of Taizu's political reforms, the main purpose is to limit the rights of officials. For example, the current Fengmanlou is a sequence of generals who will be supervisors and belong to Beijing officials, but the right to know the affairs of Yuhang County is actually a county. And the one who will be the prisoner is only seven grades.

The person in front of him is wearing the clothes of a high-ranking official of the imperial court, but he is a prefect, and the actual grade of the prefect is the fourth grade, and there are officials who are sentenced to the same level. But the virtual title in front of this person, that is big, at least compared to Feng Manlou, much bigger, this person is the governor of Yangzhou, because now the largest administrative unit of the imperial court is the road, and the state capital is under the road, so everyone is also accustomed to being called the prefect, but in fact, the level of the government is slightly higher than that of the state, and it can be regarded as an honorific title.

This person is Xiao Zonghua of the Yangzhou Governor of Zhiji Xianyuan, Brother Long Zhang, and the governor of Yangzhou.

Feng Manlou reacted and hurriedly bowed to see him. The rest of the officials obviously knew each other, and hurriedly followed to meet them, and couldn't help but wonder in their hearts, this Xiao Zonghua came very quickly. Isn't this nonsense, how can there be a reason why his own son is dead and he doesn't come to see it, although now de jure theory, Xiao Zhang is his nephew, but in fact, it is indeed his own son.

Feng Manlou is also very depressed, he just took office, and the boss's son died on his own territory, and it seems that he has to eat and hang. Governor Xiao's tone just now was obviously not good.

Wei Zhongshu hurriedly echoed: "If you want to check, you must check!" But I'm afraid Lord Feng can't be busy alone, do you want to send a helper? ”

Feng Manlou's heart tightened, and he hurriedly said, "Lord Wei, no need!" The county has already mastered some clues, and I believe that the case will be solved! ”

Wei Zhongshu seemed to have already known that Feng Manlou would shirk, and took the opportunity to say: "In this case, I can't be busy with Lord Feng, plus there are many things in our county office, and we often need to use Lord Feng's official seal. ”

What is the official seal, it is power, and issuing a notice requires the official seal to count, and now Wei Zhongshu brought it up, Feng Manlou reacted, it turned out that they were coming for this official seal today, and they went around in a big circle. Feng Manlou was about to object, but he heard Governor Xiao say: "In this case, for the sake of the people of the county, I think it's okay!" What does Lord Wind think? ”

Before he could speak, he heard Governor Xiao say: "Lord Feng really thinks about the people of Yuhang!" This house admires! ”

Feng Manlou was shocked, and just took away his official seal? In this way, he became a puppet, but he couldn't resist anymore, and the wood was already in the boat.

Feng Manlou secretly greeted the ancestors of these people seven or eight times in his heart, thinking, wait for Lao Tzu to find evidence in two days and kill Hu Weishan, see how happy you are masters, beware of being overdone!

Feng Manlou was not sad, and there seemed to be a smile on his face, and said, "Since this is the case, then there is Master Lao Wei!" ”

Seeing that the goal was achieved, Wei Zhongshu was secretly proud in his heart, and glanced at Hu Weishan, Hu Weishan hurriedly said with a clear heart: "Lord Feng, the lower official has a matter, and I want to ask the lord to adjudicate!" ”

The performance of the two, Feng Manlou saw it in his eyes, and knew that something was coming at him again, anyway, now he is a lice and doesn't bite, and said: "Master Hu, please tell me if you have something!" ”

Hu Weishan stroked his beard and said: "The land under the jurisdiction of the lower officials is mostly rural, poor and remote, and there are many people, so there are many times when they can't be managed. In addition, seeing that the autumn harvest is completed, the imperial court tax collection is imminent, and it is necessary to assist Lord Qian in collecting taxes, which is a major event, and the officials themselves are too busy. And now that Lord Xiao Zhangxiao is no longer there, the lower officials really can't get out of the way, so they want to propose to Lord Feng that someone be temporarily appointed to act as Lord Xiao's affairs! ”

Feng Manlou was surprised for a while, and now he finally knows the abacus of these people, they are not using the case of Zhang Xiaocai's death to deal with themselves, but they want to use the case of Zhang Xiaocai's death to attack Liu Jinbao. And they must have a candidate, and they are also very good candidates, enough to have a reason to be competent, Feng Manlou guessed that it is very likely that the candidate they recommended is Diane, the master of the torture room!

Sure enough, I only heard Hu Weishan say: "Now there are things that need to be taken care of every day, and it is too late for the imperial court to appoint officials, so the lower official proposed to Lord Feng to let the master of the torture room Diane take over temporarily, of course, the position is still the original position, or the master of the torture room, but he is only responsible for patrolling Yuhang County and arresting thieves!" ”

Feng Manlou's original candidate was Liu Dutou, but now that he has been beaten down by others, he can't raise that momentum, since he has lost now, it is better to lose a little single, and said heartily: "This suggestion is good, let's do it!" What is Lord Wei's opinion? ”

Wei Zhongshu smiled and said, "How dare the lower officials have any opinions, they don't listen to the upper officials!" ”

Feng Manlou looked at Qian Weilun, and Qian Weilun hurriedly said: "The lower officials will definitely obey the orders of the adults!" ”

Feng Manlou said: "Since this is the case, let Master Dai take over for the time being!" ”

After explaining the matter, everyone didn't have the mood to play with the wind anymore, and they all said goodbye and left. Feng Manlou was about to leave, but was stopped by Xiao Zhifu.

"Lord Feng, the case of Xiao Zhang, the nephew of this mansion, committed suicide, what is the result of Lord Feng's investigation?" Governor Xiao asked directly.

Feng Manlou was surprised, how could he know about his investigation, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was still very strange, he had just gone to Xiao's house in the morning, and Xiao's prefect had arrived in Yuhang in the afternoon.

It must have been Madame Shaw who told him. And it should be that when they came to report the case, they also sent someone to Yangzhou and notified the Xiao prefect. Otherwise, it wouldn't have come so soon.

Feng Manlou thought about it and decided not to tell the truth, now it seems that these people are wearing a pair of pants, including this Xiao Governor, he must be very careful.

"In this case, the lower officials are also suspicious, but until now, they have no clue! Didn't the adults just say that let the lower officials investigate carefully, the lower officials need time to investigate! "I scolded in my heart, you old turtle, you just took the power of Lao Tzu, and now you seem to be persecuting yourself.

Sure enough, as Feng Manlou expected, I only heard Governor Xiao say: "This government doesn't complain about you, this government can hold you accountable for the crime of lax governance, but thinking that Feng Da has only been in office for two days, it is really unkind, so this government decided to give Feng Daren some time!" ”

Feng Manlou pretended to be grateful and said, "Lord Xie understands, the lower officials must have solved the case and caught the murderer!" ”

Xiao Zonghua said: "In this case, this mansion will give Lord Feng three days, hoping to find the murderer within three days, otherwise don't blame this mansion for turning its face and being ruthless!" ”

Although Governor Xiao had a serious face, the smile on the corner of his mouth still betrayed him, and Feng Manlou greeted Xiao Zonghua's family countless times in his heart.

Seeing Feng Manlou coming out, Sun Hu, Wang Ying, and Dutou Liu Jinbao were waiting outside the door, although the distance inside was a little far, but what they said, everyone could still hear it.

Especially Feng Manlou, in order to report Wang Ying and Liu Jinbao, the two of them were very moved, Wang Ying said: "It's all subordinates who have affected adults, please punish them!" ”

Feng Manlou didn't pay attention to it, just looked at Liu Jinbao and asked, "What does Liu Dutou think?" ”

Now that Feng Manlou has lost momentum, everyone already knows that now is the critical moment for Liu Dutou's choice, thought about it, and said: "My subordinates are at fault, please punish them!" ”

This is the attitude that Feng Manlou is waiting for! Admitting his mistake now shows that he is still willing to follow him, if he talks about it now, Feng Manlou will definitely not look at him again.

Liu Dutou also knew the key, so like Wang Ying, he took the initiative to admit his mistake!

Feng Manlou said with a smile: "Don't be sad, everyone, we haven't reached the point of desperation, we still have a chance to turn the tables!" ”

Liu Dutou smiled and said, "My lord is talking about Hu Weishan?" ”

Liu Jinbao is really smart, when he was in the ice cellar, the footprints left by Hu Weishan, Liu Jinbao guessed that Feng Manlou had now found Hu Weishan.

It seems that it's time to explain everything to Lord Wind! Liu Jinbao thought secretly in his heart.
