"But I don't want to," Master Zhang continued, "you haven't reported this matter yet, and now that the official is free, I'll come and take a look for myself and ask why you didn't report such a big matter." ”

Without waiting for Lord Liu to speak, Master Zhang said again: "Lord Liu, as the manager of the Qilin County Agricultural Institute, such a big matter has not been reported until now, do you know what crime to be guilty of?" ”

Lord Liu immediately knelt down in fright, and before he had time to defend himself, he pretended to be puzzled and said, "Lord Zhang, hasn't Lord Liu reported it yet?" But last time I saw him send someone to report it. Oh, it's the one who sent it. ”

As he spoke, Jing Jing also pointed to a small official who was standing aside and waiting.

When the little official saw that Lord Zhang was asking about this, he felt that the matter was troublesome, and he was already scared and his legs were shaking, and now that he was quietly pointed out, he was immediately frightened and knelt down.

Who is not afraid of death?

This matter is really investigated, but it is a capital crime. Who made this defined as a big thing for the benefit of the people.

Afraid that the little official would be afraid of death, so as to betray himself, Lord Liu said in a hurry before the little official opened his mouth to beg for mercy: "Wronged, Lord Zhang, on the twelfth day of this month, the lower official has already asked the little official to take the letter to report the matter of this cart, at that time Lord An and Xiao Xianggong were present, and Lord An also said so, it can be seen that the lower official did not lie, the lower official did report it, as for why it was not sent to the State Agricultural Institute to be known to the adults, this lower official does not know why." ”

Quiet snorted coldly in her heart: It's really cunning.

This is obviously putting all the fault on him alone, and the little official immediately kowtowed to Lord Zhang and said, "My lord, Lord Liu, he is talking nonsense!" It was he who motioned for me to make a show, took the letter from him, pretended to send it, and then went back and returned it to him! ”

"He often asked me to do this, and he didn't want to report a lot of things, even when he reported it, he changed the letter and changed it to a letter report that was conducive to him, he was a hypocritical person! He's a hypocrite! He is"

Before the little official finished speaking, Lord Liu angrily reprimanded: "You spew blood! What a shameless villain! In vain, the official has been treating you well! Hateful! ”

Watching Lord Liu and the little official eat the dog, it was only funny to be quiet.

And Lord Liu not only scolded the little official, but also sought support: "Lord Zhou, Lord Zhao, Lord Qian, Lord Sun, Lord Li, how long have we worked together, who am I, you know best, you say, have I ever been hypocritical?" ”

Once Lord Liu reminded himself to be quiet and there are people above him, so that he should pay attention to it and control his temper in case he offends Quiet, and Lord Zhou has always remembered this kindness.

Therefore, as soon as Lord Zhou heard Lord Liu ask, he arched his hand to Lord Zhang and said: "Lord Liu is warm-hearted, humble and polite, conscientious in his work, and has never blushed with us. ”

Zhao, Qian, and Sun immediately echoed: "What Lord Zhou said is right, it should be that little official talking nonsense." ”

Li Jifan hesitated for a moment, after all, he knew people and faces, but he didn't know his heart, but in the end he still opened his mouth and agreed: "The lower official also thinks that the little official is talking nonsense." ”

The reason why Li Jifan finally agreed was that he considered that if Lord Liu survived this pass and was still in charge of the Agricultural Academy, in the future, Lord Liu should give him more convenience. He also helped Lord Liu prove Lord Liu's character today.
