Chapter 567: The Great Corrupt Official
() This time, I heard that the officials of Qinghe County were also very **, so Ding Xu came here to continue to deceive.
Speaking of the back, the more Ding Xu spoke, the more unwilling he became, and he scolded the corrupt officials he had taught himself.
Gu Ziyuan was silent for a long time, then let go of his hand and let him get up: "What you said is the truth?" ”
Ding Xu put his three fingers together and swore to prove it: "Really, although I love money, I am not willing to ask for any money, not to mention that the county order of Qinghe County is really a big corrupt official, and I am not willing to force him to spit out all the hard-earned money of the people." ”
"Why do you say he's a corrupt official?" Gu Ziyuan asked again.
Ding Xu snorted: "Then you don't know anything." ”
Then, he brought together the bad deeds of the county order of Qinghe County.
It turns out that the people here look peaceful, but in fact, they are also forced, and the county order abuses labor behind the scenes, allowing those young people to go to the mountains to mine stones, but the money from the sale is in their own pockets, and the people have no share.
The county palace is even more luxurious, many people have never been to the palace, after seeing the county palace, they call it as magnificent as the palace, resplendent gold.
Such a luxurious and corrupt county order is excessively greedy, but no one cares about it, and no one dares to manage it.
It's just that he hasn't stayed in Qinghe County for long this time, and now it's in the hands of Gu Ziyuan's hero.
The experience of reading people told Gu Ziyuan that this Ding Xu was jealous and hateful when he talked about corrupt officials, and he was not adulterated.
Just when Gu Ziyuan was hesitating whether to take him back to discuss with Bai Rong again, torches suddenly lit up around him, and a group of attendants broke into the backyard and surrounded them.
In the midst of the crowd, a man dressed in brocade clothes walked out leisurely, followed by an old man with gray sideburns.
Seeing that the person who came turned out to be the county order, the expression on Ding Xu's face immediately changed back to the arrogance of the chamberlain during the day: "County order, you brought so many people over this big night, what does this mean, you are not afraid of disturbing the rest of Your Majesty in the building?" ”
Ding Xu didn't know that he had inadvertently revealed his imperial decree, the old man squinted and realized that something was wrong, and then whispered a few words in the ear of the county order.
After hearing the county order, flames instantly burst out of his eyes, and he glared at Ding Xu viciously: "
Don't pretend to me anymore, you are not His Majesty's chamberlain and celebrity at all, you dare to deceive the county order to find you buns with money and efforts, I think you are too long. ”
Sure enough, it was right to bring this old minister of the former dynasty, but the old minister could see at a glance that the imperial decree was a fake, but fortunately he arranged eyeliner to monitor Ding Xu, and as soon as the guards found that Ding Xu was not in the building, they immediately went back to the house to report him.
Ding Xu saw that he had been seen through, and he didn't continue to pretend, he wanted to escape for the first time, but there was no way back, and he was so anxious that he jumped to his feet.
At this time, Gu Ziyuan said sharply with a calm face: "As the county magistrate of Qinghe County, you would rather spend thousands of gold to buy buns than use this money on the people, this is your way of being an official?" ”
As soon as he opened his mouth, it seemed to have an aura of oppression, as if the county commander and the others were all suppressed, and the old minister stared at Gu Ziyuan's face, and he felt a little familiar inexplicably.
"Qinghe County has a county order like you, sooner or later it will be eaten up, aren't you afraid that your vanity and ** will be discovered by the emperor and punished?" Gu Ziyuan was not afraid to point out the evil deeds of the county order.
The county magistrate was scolded by his accusatory words, on the one hand, his heart was weak, and on the other hand, he was annoyed, and pointed at him and said: "What are you, you dare, dare to slander this official in public, come here, arrest these two thieves who broke into the Qinglou at night, put them in prison, and the official will be retried tomorrow." ”
The guards went up to arrest Gu Ziyuan and Ding Xu, Gu Ziyuan suddenly resisted, and fought with those guards with one to ten, causing many people in the building to be woken up and watch, the scene was chaotic, among which Ding Xu took the opportunity to run out, and finally only caught Gu Ziyuan.
let Ding Xu go, the county order was very angry, and immediately ordered the county seat to be blocked and no one was allowed to go out at will, and the county order recognized Gu Ziyuan as the boy next to the girl who sold steamed buns.
The county commander's heart was suddenly shocked, thinking that these three people must be partners, and wanted to use this bun to cheat him of his bounty, but he didn't expect that there would be such a bold person who dared to spread wild on his territory, and he would never let go of this group of people.
With an order, the county order sent a group of people out to find the whereabouts of Ding Xu and Bai Rong and arrest them all.
Not just because of their cheating, but because they probably know what they did
Something if they leave the county to go to the real emperor to complain.
On the other side, Ding Xu, who had just escaped not long ago, bumped into Bai Rong who was wandering outside, she was worried about Gu Ziyuan's safety, so she came over to take a look at the situation.
Ding Xu apologized, turned around and hurriedly wanted to leave, but Bai Rong stopped him from leaving, because Bai Rong saw the imperial decree hanging on his waist, and saw him running out of the brothel, guessing that he might be the one who pretended to be the emperor's chamberlain.
Bai Rong grabbed it tighter and asked him, "Why did you run out, Ziyuan?" ”
Unexpectedly, he was suddenly questioned, Ding Xu was stunned for a moment: "You said the person who came to me in the middle of the night?" He's just been arrested by the county order, so if you're with him, run away. ”
Bai Rong frowned, probably understanding what was going on, and then wanted to ask a little more clearly, and another person walked out of the brothel.
"It's the person from the county order, run." Ding Xu was about to run.
The old man coughed and hurriedly lowered his voice: "Don't be afraid, you two, I'm not here to arrest you." ”
The old man also revealed his identity, he was originally an old minister of the previous dynasty, loyal to Gu Ziyuan's father, that is, the first emperor, and then the former dynasty was buried, and he retired to live in Qinghe County.
In Qinghe County, he has always found the mediocrity of the county order, but as an old minister of the previous dynasty, he couldn't do anything, he could see that Ding Xu and Gu Ziyuan wanted to overthrow this county order, so he also wanted to contribute together.
It was all to deal with this county order, and the three of them quickly reached a consensus and began to discuss the plan.
Through Ding Xu's narration, Bai Rong also learned that Gu Ziyuan should have been imprisoned on purpose, otherwise with his strength, even if he couldn't beat so many servants, he could escape with light skills.
In addition, with the old minister providing a lot of evidence, overturning the county order is not a problem, but she needs more strong witnesses, which she believes can be found in the cell.
Before dawn, Bai Rong decided to help Gu Ziyuan, and told Lao Chen and Ding Xu to come to the yamen to find them the day after tomorrow, and then he would confess the evidence and work together to make the county order step down.
Ding Xu and Lao Chen both felt that this was very dangerous, but Bai Rong said that Gu Ziyuan had the ability to protect her, and she could also do martial arts and protect herself, and under her repeated insistence, the two still agreed.
