The matter has come to this point, and there is still the mood of threatening others, and this person's heart of change is nothing more than this, so it can be seen that there is no intention to admit mistakes, and if it is dealt with lightly, it will only leave a disaster.

"What a great majesty, old man, you can say what they have done, and you will never see these beasts in the future." Xu Ziqiao rarely scolds, and if he wasn't angry, he wouldn't have been able to say such things.

Bai Qianyi helped the person up, and the old man wiped his tears and said intermittently, "At this time, it is also this evil, but on weekdays, not only rob things, but also rob female dolls, and even children want to rob and sell." ”

"Lord Zhu, what you are doing in this mansion is really Ansheng, the people are not happy, and the warblers and swallows in your house are singing and dancing, so you must be busy and don't have time to care about it." Xu Ziqiao didn't even give him a straight look, this kind of person, after today's interrogation, he won't be able to wear this black gauze hat tomorrow.

Zhu Jian's heart was cold, today he was on the table, and several county masters present, several people looked at each other, all shrunk their necks like quails, and they didn't dare to come out.

"Wait a minute, you can't just send it down." Lin Huiru squinted his eyes, keenly aware of a hint of abnormality, since this kind of person dares to be so rampant, it should not be simply the reason why Zhu Jian doesn't care, in other words, it should be conniving.

"Dare to be so rampant, isn't there someone behind it? Lord Xu, it's better to take it back for trial, the New Year is approaching, and you have to give the people a peaceful year. Bai Qianyi also realized it, frowned and proposed.

Xu Ziqiao nodded, with a lot of promise, but after knowing the truth behind this matter, he was chilled.

What these people have done in collusion is outrageous.

On weekdays, the county government and Zhu Jian's government are all behind the back, on the one hand, they connive at what these people do, and they will get a piece of the pie from these people, and it is precisely because of this that those bullies are extremely ruthless.

Originally, it should have stopped at this time, but what is chilling is that Zhu Jianke did not really pay out of his own pocket to do good deeds, but once again colluded with these people to rob things, of course, the purpose is not to sell, if the victims have money, it will not be this scene.

What they want is to recharge the steamed buns to the next day, although it is a small expense, but this money is also greedy, it is really difficult to call it a person.

"This brute, do you lack the money to make a coffin for yourself? If I don't let him go, I won't be able to live a good life this year. Lin Huiru frowned, and the atmosphere in the room was very depressing.

"Don't worry, of course it's impossible to let him go, the capital crime is too light, and living to apologize is the main thing. I have sent someone to the capital, and I still remember the list that can be replaced in the intention, and none of the people involved in this matter can escape. Xu Ziqiao clenched his fists, unexpectedly that not only did the court make him feel terrible, but this kind of petty official was even more for the slightest benefit, regardless of the life or death of others.

"That's good, it's better to exile Ningguta for a felony, but unfortunately I can't commit it." Lin Huiru sighed, a little depressed.

At this time, Bai Qianyi walked in, "My lord, the newly appointed government official asks to see you." ”

"Let him in." Xu Ziqiao let out a sigh.

The newly appointed government is a little old, and he has failed twice, but fortunately, he is a good person, and he is the only good official who will use silver to help the people among all the county magistrates, but it is precisely because of this that he himself is also poor, although he will not eat the last meal and the next meal, but the life is also hard, and his wife has also run away with others.

"Xiaguan has seen Lord Xu, Mrs. Lin." He Jinliang saluted respectfully, his thin cheeks were concave and thin, and the official uniform on his body was also very large, which looked a little funny.

Xu Ziqiao looked at him and was a little speechless, and sighed helplessly, "No courtesy, I have long heard that Lord He is very considerate of the people, and even suffers from himself, treat the people well first, and when I see it today, it really lives up to its reputation." ”

"Lord Xu has won the award, and the lower officials have heard of Lord Xu's reputation for a long time, and they don't hide it from the adults, here in Yiyuan, there will be high-ranking officials here every year, but there are very few people who are willing to take care of this kind of thing, and the excerpts that the lower officials have tried to hand over have also been stopped on the road. Now that I have an official like Lord Xu, I must be brilliant in the future. He Jinliang looked very excited.

Xu Ziqiao smiled a little helplessly, "It's too early to say this, the details of this disaster relief will be handed over to You Fuya, including some gold and silver collected from the Zhu family, Your Majesty has a will, all the property collected from corrupt officials during this period of time will be used as disaster relief, if there is any place to be tight, He Fuya does not have to press it in his heart." ”

"Your Majesty is merciful, and the lower officials also know that this matter is also played by Lord Xu, so you should be the benefactor of the people this time." He Jinliang's hands trembled slightly, and the words he said were sincere, which made Lin Huiru feel a little crying and laughing.

"I don't need to mention this point anymore, but there is one thing I also want to remind you that you must at least consider yourself as a man, if it is not an emergency, the problem that can be solved by governance still has to start from the root, you can't blindly pay out the silver, even if it is your own silver, people are good at being bullied, and officials are good at being ridden." Xu Ziqiao is a little meaningful, for example, if he catches someone like those bullies, if it is replaced by a government like He Jinliang, their courage will inevitably reach the sky.

He Jinliang is a smart person, and he quickly understood what Xu Ziqiao meant, "The lower officials are ashamed, and in the future, they will inevitably find the root cause of the matter, learn from you, Lord Xu, and benefit the people well, and be strict with yourself." ”

Although I don't know if He Jinliang really understands, but the people are now lacking a good official, Xu Ziqiao can only nod and say a few polite words to him.

As expected, as soon as the bullies and officials were eliminated, the people were much more happy among themselves, at least there would be no more fainting people on the roadside, and the whole city would not be shrouded in grief.

On the day when Xu Ziqiao and Lin Huiru set off to go back, the people in the city came out to say goodbye, and there was no end in sight on the street, and the scene looked shocking.

But in the carriage, Xu Ziqiao's face was not very good-looking, and Lin Huiru was a little puzzled, so he asked, "What's wrong?" Is there anything else you can't let go? ”

Xu Ziqiao looked at Lin Huiru, slightly hooked the corners of his lips and touched her hand, "You don't know, the higher you are an official, the more taboo one thing is, that is, the high merit is to cover the master." ”
