Chapter 13 Resignation

Yue Su ate with Jin Chan and Tie Qiu in the back house, the meal was very simple, three dishes and one soup, and the servants below were very puzzled, why the eldest master was so low-key, compared with the previous master, it was a world of difference. However, the three of them were already very satisfied in their hearts, and it can be said that if they had such meals every day before, who would have left their hometown and wandered.

Halfway through the meal, a servant came in to report that the chief steward of the Wufu had something to ask to see. Yue Su didn't know what the other party meant, since it was a visit, it was inconvenient to refuse people thousands of miles away, and sent a message to let him talk in the living room.

The name of the chief housekeeper of the martial arts family is Wu Jing, who is in his forties, white and chubby, with a smile on his face, very much like a businessman.

Yue Su sat on the top, and Jin Chan and Tie Qi stood behind him, still acting as his personal attendants. Wu Jingxia sat upright, looking very calm, holding a burden in his arms, the burden was very weighty, as soon as he entered the door, Yue Su saw some clues from the burden.

Sure enough, after Wu Jing said a few polite words, he changed his words and entered the topic, "Lord Yue first came to Yangshuo, there must be many unsuitable places in life, and the furniture in the mansion is also old, so some should be added. ”

After speaking, he stood up and put the big burden in his arms on the table beside Yue Su. The burden fell on the table, and the sound was really not small, Wu Jing untied the burden, respectfully returned to his place, and said nothing.

Silver, the baggage is full of silver, to be exact, all ingots of twenty taels and one ingots. Jin Chan and Tie Qiu's eyes were wide open, they had never seen so much silver in their lives, and they thought to themselves, "No wonder the county lord in his hometown has come out for those local tyrants and bullies in everything, it turns out that there are such great benefits." I just don't know what Brother Yue will do. ”

Yue Su squinted at the silver on the table and said with a smile: "Military attachΓ©, I don't know what the military officer wants to do for him when he sends so much silver?" ”

Wu Jing saw Yue Su smiling, very kind, thinking that Yue Su was also a raccoon dog, and said with a smile: "Lord Yue is too polite, this bit of silver is just a little filial piety of the owner, all as an adult's spare flowers, and there is nothing to ask for." ”

"If you don't have any merit, it's hard to sleep and eat after all." Yue Su said, raised his hand and took a piece of silver, checked it, and said, "It's quite heavy, these can add up to a few hundred taels." ”

"It's a total of three hundred taels, it's really not a respect, and the big right is used first, and after a while, the owner still has filial piety." Wu Jing said with a smile.

"There are regulations in the imperial court, but if an official embezzles or accepts bribes of sixty taels, he will be sentenced to death, and your three hundred taels are enough for me to lose my head several times." Yue Su first said these words lightly, and then shouted: "The martial family bribed the court officials with bad intentions, come here, tie me up!" ”

"Yes! My lord. ”

As soon as Jin Chan and Tie Qiu heard Yue Su's words, they immediately came to their heads, stepped forward, and wanted to hold down Wu Jing.

Wu Jing was not an idle person, and when he saw that the other party was about to make a move, he stood up suddenly and put on a posture, "Lord Yue, what do you mean by this?" ”

"What do you mean? You bribed the official, the evidence is conclusive, and now I want to tie you up and punish you, do you dare to do it in the county government of the official? Yue Su slapped the table heavily and stood up.

After Wu Jing heard this, he knew that it was not good, and he wanted to do it, it can be seen that the two descendants in front of him are all kung fu, if they are defeated, the crime will be big, and you will be killed by a plot to assassinate the court officials. He sighed and put his hands behind his back, and Jin Cicada and Tie Qi stepped forward to hold him down, beckoned his subordinates to fetch the rope, and tied it firmly.

"Take the silver and take him to the back office." Yue Su commanded and left the flower hall first.

When I arrived at the front and back office, I went directly into the public house of the county office. The county government secretary is a nine-grade official, mainly in charge of documents, and there is not much oil and water. The chief bookkeeper of Yangshuo County is a bad old man in his fifties, usually very careful, and he is reluctant to go to the restaurant at noon, and always eats indiscriminately at the county office. As soon as he saw the master come in, he hurriedly got up to greet him, "I don't know if the lord is coming, the lower officials have missed the welcome, and please forgive me." ”

"Excuse me." Yue Su waved his hand, took two steps forward, took the burden from Jin Cicada's hand, threw it on the book, and said: "Give me the account and enter the warehouse, and write that the martial artist bribed the official with three hundred taels of silver, all of which will be confiscated." ”

"Yes, yes......" The master hurriedly agreed, wondering in his heart, which play did this new adult play today, and why did someone give him money.

However, he didn't dare to ask more, and honestly did what Yue Su told him.

Yue Su took the martial arts, everyone in the back house knew it, and there was inevitably the eyes of the martial arts among the servants, and a kid named Xiaosi saw that Yue Su took people to the back office, and hurriedly slipped out of the county government and reported to the martial arts.

And after Yue Su asked the master book to complete the warehousing procedures, he asked Jin Chan and Tie Qiu to escort Wu Jing to the lobby to wait for the warm pavilion in the lobby to wait, while he sat on the lobby and waited for the group of errands to come back after lunch.

When he first arrived, two people walked into the lobby, it was Sun Dacheng and Xia Kuan. The two had already learned from the Wufu family that the bribery had failed and that the chief housekeeper Wu Jing had been captured, so they came in a hurry. As soon as he arrived at the door of the lobby, he didn't expect Yue Su to sit upright on the official case, so he hurriedly took a few steps forward and bowed.

"His subordinate Sun Dacheng is the head of the third class of the county, because he said yesterday that he was on official business, not in the county office, and did not see the adult in time, and hoped that the adult Haihan would not cure the crime of negligence of his subordinates."

"Well, those who don't know are not guilty." Yue Su said with a pleasant face: "You all sit down and talk." ”

"Master Xie." The two sat down on the side and exchanged a few words, and Sun Dacheng said: "I heard that yesterday as soon as the adults took office, they went to the court to try the case, and the law enforcement was like a mountain, and the iron face was selfless, which is really admirable. ”

"This official is appointed by the imperial court, and it should be so." Yue Su behaved very indifferently and didn't say a word. Because as soon as Sun Dacheng and Xia Kuan entered the door, Yue Su saw that Sun Dacheng's visit was not a simple visit, and he wanted to see what he wanted to say.

It will be Xia Kuan's turn to speak, "Xiaguan just heard Sun Zhutou say that his father-in-law Wu Kui admires the adult very much, and he knows that the adult will definitely have a lot of money when he first arrives in Yangshuo, so he respects some light salutes and expresses his heart a little." I don't want to be misunderstood by adults, thinking that it is bribing the court officials, but I am really afraid, so I ask my grandson to catch my head and say it in front of the adults. Sun Zhutou is an upright person and frankly refuses. However, the lower officials thought that this matter was not a big deal, but just a little bit of the local gentry's heart, if the adults did not like it, reprimanded a few words, so that they should not be like this in the future, and there was no need to make a big move, so as not to chill the hearts of the local gentry. ”

Yue Su nodded and said: "What Lord Xia said is also reasonable, but it is just a step late, the official has already made the main book register and put the bribes into the warehouse, if there is no explanation, it is not easy for the boss to inquire about it." For now, we can only take him as an example to set an example. ”

"This ......" Xia Kuan really didn't expect Yue Su's speed to be so fast, but he also understood that even if he registered and made a record, as long as there was a word from the county lord, he could still erase this record. After a little hesitation, he said: "My lord, although I have registered, it has not reached the point where I can't turn around, if my lord has the heart to fulfill, isn't it the same......"

"Smack!" Yue Su slapped the shocked wood and said angrily: "Xia Kuan, what do you mean by this, do you want this official to know the law and break the law and change the account books privately!" ”

"Xiaguan didn't dare to ......" Xia Kuan didn't dare to say more, turned his head to look at Sun Dacheng, and gave him a look.

Sun Dacheng immediately realized that he couldn't ask for this matter, let alone the incident where the second housekeeper of the Wufu Mansion beat people, so it was better to act according to the original plan. Sun Dacheng got up and clenched his fists, took out an envelope from his arms, and said, "My lord, my subordinates came here today to see my lord, and I came to resign." The mother was ill, and her subordinates were afraid that their subordinates would not serve her well, so they were ready to resign and go home, take care of them personally, and hope that the adults will be successful. ”

After speaking, put the resignation on the table.

Yue Su took the envelope, didn't even open it, nodded and said: "It's rare that you have this piece of filial piety, as the saying goes, filial piety comes first, how can this official not be fulfilled by you." Well, leave the uniform and saber behind, and go home to serve your mother. ”

Yue Suzheng couldn't find a reason to get rid of Sun Dacheng, he also took the initiative to resign, how could Yue Su not be allowed, he didn't even say a word to keep it, and immediately sent it away.

"Thank you, sir." Sun Dacheng gritted his teeth fiercely, and said in his heart: "Boy, count you ruthless, wait a minute, you will know how powerful Lao Tzu is." ”

Taking off the uniform and putting the saber aside, Sun Dacheng bowed his hand to Yue Su again, "My lord, there will be a period later." With that, he turned and left.

As soon as Sun Dacheng went out on the front foot, Ma De and Tong Zhou on the back foot entered the lobby with the third class of officials. Ma De didn't give a salute, pulled Tong Zhou and walked to the front of the public case with a big grin, and then took out a piece of paper from his arms and slapped it on Yue Su's table, "My lord, my subordinates have something to do at home, so I am here to resign." This is a resignation, please take a look at it. ”

Yue Su did the same as Sun Dacheng, and did not look at Ma De's resignation, and said with a smile: "Since there is something at home, I think it must be a big event, and the official is not easy to stop it, so I will allow you." Leave your uniform and saber behind, and you're good to go. ”

Ma De didn't take off his clothes immediately, turned to look at the third class of catchers, and scolded everyone. Immediately after, a shout rang out in the lobby, "My lord, I have to resign!" ”
