After Xiao Yin entered the backyard, he couldn't help but be a little flattered when he saw Shen Chong, who was dressed in green clothes, standing in the courtyard waiting for him.

Xiao Yin also knows a little bit of the rules of officialdom, although the inspection office is nominally under the jurisdiction of Yanzhou Wei, but in fact it is indeed a subordinate of Taitung Zhixian, and this Lord Shen Chong is his direct boss. So Xiao Yin hurriedly gave an official salute, and this etiquette was taught to him by Zhao San Mazi yesterday. Today, I have learned and put it into practice.

Shen Chong hurriedly helped Xiao Yin up and said, "Xiao Patrol doesn't need to be polite. It's not in the public court, just be casual. ”

Xiao Yin said: "Xia Guan understands. ”

Shen Chong said with a smile: "In private, you and I can talk about each other as equals, how old is Shen and how old you are, call me Brother Shen." ”

Xiao Yin was not hypocritical, so he said: "Brother Shen, the younger brother was an official at the beginning, and there are many things that he doesn't understand. I hope my brother will include more. ”

Shen Chong said: "Brother Xiao Xian, as a talent in this county, it is the right thing to give guidance to his brother

。 ”

Xiao Yin said: "The little brother has thanked the elder brother. ”

Shen Chong said: "Your new official took office, and my brother will take you to the county inspection office to have a look, so that you can have an understanding." ”

Xiao Yin nodded and said, "Please ask my brother to lead the way." ”

Shen Chong called Master Wu Xian, and he and Wu Xian took Xiao Yin to the inspection office.

The inspection office is just west of the county office, not far from the county office. It's only half a pillar of incense to walk over. Something worth mentioning. After Shen Chong's new official took office, Zhu Dachang, the former head of the inspection office, did not use it to meet his senior official once. The inspectors in the inspection office did not go to the errand, as if the inspection office was outside the Taitung County government. Shen Chong was quite dissatisfied, and even the county officials questioned the new official, thinking that his county master probably couldn't handle Zhu Dachang, the head snake.

However, Shen Chong didn't send it, and he was shocked, and he used thunderous means to punish Zhu Dachang for several crimes, and all of them were stolen. Zhu Dachang was sent to Jiangbei Province to be sentenced to prison according to the prosecutor, and I heard that the envoy was the mentor of Shen Chong's township test, so Zhu Dachang's fate was predictable, it was quite miserable.

Master Wu Xian was originally just a small official in the household, and he left a great achievement when he overthrew Zhu Dachang. Much of Zhu Dachang's incriminating evidence was collected by him

Because of this, he was promoted by Shen Chong to his chief staff, that is, his master.

After Xiao Yin was taken to the inspection center by the two, his expression was quite exciting. It stands to reason that a public gate with a military nature like the inspection office, there should be soldiers standing guard in front of the gate, but he didn't even see a single figure, the gate was so open, and the gate was quite dilapidated, looking in disrepair.

Shen Chong's face was also a little embarrassed, he didn't pay much attention to the inspection institute after cleaning up Zhu Dachang, but just sent down the two months' salary that Zhu Dachang had deducted this year. Shen Chong was given in full, but the hole in the inspection office was too big. So much so that it is still in such a miserable situation.

Xiao Yin controlled his emotions and walked towards the inside of the inspection station, and as soon as he got inside, he saw a few patrol-like people in the courtyard lying on the ground sleeping crookedly, and a few playing leaf cards in the corner. There is also a benevolent brother who is holding a book called "Golden Vase Lotus" in his hand, and he is reading it with relish. The expression on his face was very fluttering.

This benevolent brother was wearing a nine-grade official uniform embroidered with a seahorse on the complement, and it seemed that he should be the head of the inspection office.

Master Wu Xian saw this scene and said angrily: "The county lord and Xiao Patrol are here, what kind of system will you become." ”

As soon as the words fell, the sleeping people in the yard played the leaf card and panicked when they saw the golden bottle lotus. Hurriedly gathered together, barely lined up in two rows, and bowed half-kneeling. The old man who looked at the Golden Bottle Lotus was still secretly looking at Xiao Yin. He looked very curious.

Xiao Yin naturally noticed his gaze and looked at him, but the man looked a little embarrassed, so he lowered his head.

Shen Chong coughed lightly. Lang Sheng said: "Inspector Xiao took office today. The official took him for an inspection, but you are like this, what should you do? ”

As soon as the words fell, the established horse said: "Qiyu County Zun, there is no errand today, so the brothers are a little tired, and there is no disrespect." ”

Shen Chong said: "Brother Xiao Xian is the head of the inspection office, and this official is not good at overstepping the line, please let Brother Xiao Xian fall." ”

Xiao Yin is not a stingy person, and before he came, Zhao San Mazi also introduced some information to him, so he didn't care very much.

Xiao Yin looked at the half-kneeling crowd and said, "Don't take it as an example, this official spared you today." ”

The patrol gate hurriedly thanked him.

Shen Chong saw that Xiao Yin didn't want to pursue the matter, so he didn't say anything more. Then he and his master Wu Xian returned to the county office.

Seeing Shen Chong leaving, the old man breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had escaped some catastrophe.

Xiao Yinqi said, "Why are you so afraid of Lord Shen. ”

Suo Cheng said: "The inspector doesn't know that since Zhu Dachang, the dog thief, was imprisoned, Lord Shen has been rectifying the rule of officials in Taitung County. Wang Zhutou was ready to open the revolution seven days ago, and the crying was miserable, and it was useless to kneel in front of the county government and plead. ”

Xiao Yin sighed in his heart: "Sure enough, it is Liupin Tanhua Zhi County, and this brother of mine is a ruthless person." ”

Xiao Yin said: "The official's surname is Xiao, and the single name is a hidden character, so you don't have to be so restrained on weekdays." Come, come, please get up. ”

Suo Cheng straightened the hem of his official uniform and said: "The official is called Ding Yi, from Dingjia Town, this county, and he is seventeen this year." ”

Xiao Yin praised: "Brother Ding entered the office at the age of seventeen, I admire and admire." ”

Ding Yi said embarrassedly: "The adult is two years younger than the lower official, and he is already the lower official's Shangguan, compared with the adult, the lower official is ashamed and ashamed." ”

Xiao Yin smiled: "I'm an official who is tricky, it's nothing." ”

Ding Yi said embarrassedly: "I'm not afraid of Lord Xiao's jokes, my official was actually bought by my father." Fifty taels of silver were spent. ”

Xiao Yin was speechless in his heart, fifty taels of silver could buy the official body of the ninth grade. Then how can you count yourself as an eight-rank official, it's really not very valuable.

The rest of the inspectors also reported their homes, and there were only eight inspectors in the courtyard. This made Xiao Yin very puzzled, and the master Wu Xian told him that there were eighty inspectors in the Taidong County Inspection Office. Only eight people came.

So Xiao Yin asked Ding Yi: "Where are the other seventy-two people who are Ding Suo?" ”

Ding Yi said embarrassedly: "Don't hide it from Lord Xiao, when Zhu Dachang was in office, he deducted the brothers' salaries, and many brothers were forced to do some small work in the county to earn some hard-earned money. ”

Xiao Yin looked at the few patrolmen in front of him, and couldn't help but be angry in his heart, this damn Zhu Dachang, it was really cheap for him not to execute him on the spot.

Xiao Yin frowned, and began to think about how to deal with the mess of the inspection station.
