Chapter 141: Subduing the Officialdom
Zhou Tai finally panicked.
looked at Zuoqiu Key, and asked vigilantly: "You...... Who are you? You...... What is the reason for coming to Zhoufu? ”
Only then did I understand that this woman could enter the Zhou Mansion alone, not to mention, and it seemed that she had also solved all the guards in the mansion.
There are quite a few guards in his palace.
Zuoqiu Jian straightened up from the door, and looked at Zhou Tai, who had a somewhat flustered expression, and said calmly: "Lord Zhou, don't panic, the little woman has come to see you." ”
Thinking of what Zuoqiu Key said just now, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat: "You want me to draw a confession?" I'm not guilty, I've done nothing. I, Zhou Tai, have been honest and honest all my life, and I have no ...... I didn't do anything unseemly. ”
"Really?" Zuoqiu didn't bother to demolish him, walked directly into the study, and then found a place to sit down.
Looking at the tea on Zhou Tai's table, he couldn't help but smile: "Fifty taels of tea have been sold in this city, and now Lord Zhou is very willing." ”
"Come on, prepare tea for the girl!" Zhou Tai reacted, immediately stood up, and then walked towards the door of the study.
But......
The left hill key just raised his hand slightly.
"Smack!"
The door to the study was closed.
was so frightened that Zhou Tai's legs were so weak that he almost knelt on the ground.
He turned his head and looked at Zuoqiu Key tremblingly, only thinking that he had seen a ghost?
Zuoqiu Jian smiled and raised his eyes to look at him: "What?" Lord Zhou can't sit still? ”
"No...... No. Zhou Tai sat back with weak legs and feet.
Zuoqiu Jian smiled casually, and continued: "Actually, I just wanted to come to Lord Zhou to talk about the current situation in Yuzhou City. ”
"What...... What do you mean? Zhou Tai was a little puzzled, although he was more puzzled about who the woman in front of him was, and how could she have such a strong strength.
It's weird and unpredictable......
However, the steward next to him looked at Zuoqiu Key and suddenly thought of something. His eyes widened and he said, "You...... Are you the woman who came in at the gate today? People from Beijing? ”
The guards at the gate of the city also said that the woman wore a veil and could not tell what she looked like.
Isn't it the same with the woman in front of you?
The news has just arrived, and the woman should have just entered the city, but now she has directly found the mansion?
"After entering the city today, I saw that the situation in Yuzhou City was even more depressed than I imagined. I see that the people of the city are no longer able to live normally in the city and are willing to leave their homes, I see that there are a lot of people begging on the street and no one pays attention to them, I see that the people who have left the city are forbidden to enter the city and are classified as mobs, I see that the people of the government are strong and domineering, and the people cannot complain in front of the government office......" Zuoqiu Jian said one by one, looking at Zhou Tai while wiping the sweat on his forehead, and then sneered: "Lord Zhou, what do you think? ”
"This ...... It must be the group of people under his command who fill their pockets and do not do their jobs. I made it clear that the needs of the people are the first, and I, Zhou Tai, have always been cattle and horses for Yuzhou City, and I am also diligent and honest after taking office, and I will never betray His Majesty's expectations of me. ”
"Oh? But I saw that Lord Zhou was clothed and fed, there was no shortage of tea, he hid in the house and didn't listen to everything outside the window, his body was plump, and his life was delicious, as if the drought in Yuzhou City had no impact on you at all! Zuoqiu said sarcastically.
As the biggest official in Yuzhou Mansion, the first time of this disaster must have enjoyed the greatest preferential treatment, so that he could maintain such a breezy and calm day.
So how can Zuoqiu not sneer?
If Zhou Tai hadn't been afraid of Zuoqiu's strength, he would have blasted her out at this time. But he could only suppress the anger in his heart, and then pretended to be gentle: "That girl, what do you say you want me to do?" Zhou has worked hard to change the current situation in Yuzhou City. But people can't fight with the sky, I can't let it rain right away, right? ”
"From now on, we will go to the city to set up a disaster relief point, and all the government personnel will be dispatched. Then gather the strong men in the city together and build a temporary shelter. The wandering old men, children, women, and children in this city, settle them down first. The price of the restaurant is back to normal, and the taxes you collect must be waived during the drought, after all, only they have the channel to buy some food that barely supports some people. Nowadays, the situation is special, and it is difficult to do business, and they have a higher finished product. Zuo Qiu Jian was thoughtful, looked at Zhou Tai and continued: "After the order in the city returns to normal, almost the team of the National Teacher has arrived. When the time comes, everything will be ready, and only the east wind will be owed. ”
Listening to Zuoqiu's series of arrangements, he suddenly said with some embarrassment: "Then this ...... How much does it cost? Manpower is not necessarily enough! Those strong men may not necessarily listen to the government. ”
"Heh, not enough money?" Zuo Qiu's eyes cooled: "I see that there are a lot of valuable things in Lord Zhou's mansion, if it really can't work......"
"Enough, enough, I can take as much as I can." Zhou Tai thought about agreeing to this woman first, and then he would have the opportunity to act later.
Zuo Qiu Jian looked at his thief eyebrows and knew what he was planning, so he raised his eyebrows and said casually: "Don't think about playing tricks, as long as I am here, there will be no accidents." ”
Zhou Tai's expression was embarrassed: "Then what if you can't recruit someone?" ”
"After being the prefect for so many years, the people don't value the prestige of your government, don't trust it, and can't gather it at critical moments. I'm afraid only Lord Zhou himself knows it. Zuo Qiu's eyes were cold.
"Yes...... Yes, Zhou knows. ”
Zhou Tai listened to Zuoqiu's words.
Just listen to him and he'll do it?
When he found an opportunity to give orders, he immediately gathered people to surround the study and arrest the key to Zuoqiu.
But as a result, his subordinates all looked at him with a frightened expression: "My lord, that woman must be a powerful samurai, how can we be the opponents of samurai?" ”
"yes, but what do you want to do first? After the people of the court came, wouldn't it be trivial to think about how to solve her? ”
"Yes, no matter how powerful she is, she won't dare to do anything to your prefect? We see that she is a fox and a fake tiger, and she only dares to scare you by making a show of us. ”
Originally, Zhou Tai also thought so.
But when he walked to the left hill, he pretended to be, and then was beaten severely, and then he knew that he was thinking too much.
Zuoqiu Key directly took his clothes and personally went to the city gate to make a proclamation.
Suddenly, there was a big news from the entire Yuzhou City.
That is a heroine who landed in Yuzhou City and subdued the bully government and the corrupt official Zhou Tai.
