Section 11 Shamelessness

Zhao Wenhua slapped the letter on the book, his nostrils were rough, and his eyes swept away everyone in the hall.

Tongzhi, Tongju, Master and others hurriedly shrank their necks, full of doubts and uneasiness.

"All of you who boast of being rich in learning and looking down on the world, come and see how Yan Ge praises us, hehe, ten years of cold windows and many years in officialdom, is not as good as a fledgling little prisoner?"

The master rolled his cross-eyed, stepped forward lightly, reached out and took down the letter on the bookcase, and when he opened it up, he understood why the Lord of Futai was angry.

It turned out that Nie Bao, the governor of Fujian (Xu Ping's teacher), was pleased to hear that Xu Ping had been in office for more than a month, so he cleaned up the backlog of cases in Yanping for more than ten years, and after being pleased, he went to the scribe's department to apply for a commendation for him.

Yan Song saw the report, first happy and then annoyed, because Zhao Wenhua has been in charge of Yanping for many years, and the annual assessment of taxation and people's livelihood ranks in the middle and lower, if the officials do not look at Zhao Wenhua is Yan Song's godson, I am afraid that he would have been transferred or demoted as usual, but now it is good, Xu Ping's series of actions have completely dried out Zhao Wenhua's stupidity and incompetence.

Hehe, those imperial historians are afraid that the meeting will be discussed, whether it is because he is Yan Song's old eyes are dizzy and he doesn't know people, or Xu Jie's family education is rigorous and educational, and he can't make trouble with those talkative officials, and he will take the opportunity to participate in the book again.

"My lord, Lao Tzu said: Woe and blessing rely on." The master blinked his little eyes and bent over and arched his hand, "Hehe, this may be a turning point for us." ”

"Oh?" Zhao Wenhua held his chin and stared at him, "How do you say this?" ”

"First of all, your Excellency should immediately and vigorously reward all the people in the magistrate's office, whether they are subordinate officials or errand servants, preferably everyone has a share." The master said: "Find ways to share the credit of Xu Ping, because only in this way can the credit be given to the prefect and the lord in the end."

"Well, that's kind of interesting."

The master chuckled, and said again: "Secondly, set him up, gather the strength of the whole government, and solve the matter of privately opening a silver mine as soon as possible.

Zhao Wenhua got up slowly, frowned and paced back and forth in the hall, stopped for a while and smiled slightly, "Master's words are serious, how can this official be jealous of the virtuous and jealous, although Xu Ping is creative, but after all, he is young and lacks experience, as a Shangguan, I should strongly support it, do you think so?" ”

Everyone nodded their heads one after another, and Zhao Wenhua said: "The Governor's Office has settled the multi-year backlog of cases with the full support of the prefect's yamen, and this matter is gratifying, and all participants should be rewarded, but they must be treated equally, and one cannot be favored over the other." In addition, the official decided to transfer most of the officials of the Magistrate's Office to clean up the silver mines dug privately in the state capital on the same day, so as to maintain the law of the imperial court and ensure the peace of the people. ”

Everyone arched to the end and said in unison: "My lord is fair, decent, wise, and wise, and we will respect you."

………………

Stepping down the stone steps, Xu Ping only felt dizzy, the breeze blew, he was excited, and his eyes were much clearer.

"Xu Ping, I'll call you a virtuous nephew, hehe, you don't know that the people of Yan are full of powerful families, and it's difficult to do something......"

Xu Ping shook his head and smiled bitterly, and Zhao Wenhua's expression full of concern and seriousness appeared in front of him again, hehe, clever! It is worthy of immersion

The old oilman who has been in officialdom for many years, only twenty taels of silver, a few glasses of water and wine, picked the peaches, and made himself a bare-bones commander.

Qiu Min caught up and patted him on the shoulder, "Hey, I said you're really a, what's wrong?" The mouth let the donkey kick? Fight with him? ”

Xu Ping glanced at her and pouted silently.

Qiu Min rolled his eyes with a flat mouth, "Yes, even if I say it in vain, you will dare to make a mistake with me, and your stomach will be weak when you see the big official's legs." ”

Xu Ping's forehead burst out, "Stinky girl, do you want to find fault?" ”

Qiu Min was so angry that his cheeks were red, his hands were on his hips and he was about to theorize, and suddenly there was a sound of footsteps behind him, and when he looked back, he saw Cai Tao's face flushed and his waist through everyone, and he ran down the stone steps to the two of them with small steps, panting and saying, "Xu ...... Lord Xu and Miss Qiu, the two of them stayed, and Lord Futai had something important to tell ......"

Looking at his obscene appearance, Qiu Min couldn't help but quip: "What's wrong? Could it be that Lord Zhao's conscience found out and wanted to add a bounty? ”

"Hey, almost." Cai Tao rubbed his hands together, a pair of triangular eyes Mimi kept looking her up and down, swallowed his saliva and said: "The girl doesn't let her eyebrows be extraordinary, the prefect has admired her for a long time, as long as she agrees to assist Lord Zhao in dealing with the silver mine clearance case, the bounty is three or five hundred taels." After a pause, he turned to Xu Ping and said, "I don't know what Lord Xu wants?"

It turned out that Zhao Wenhua wanted to beat her idea, and Xu Ping saw the clue during the banquet, the old man stared at Qiu Min's eyes with a green light, and the saliva almost flowed off the table

gxi

g。

Hehe, the dead Nizi has a sharp mouth and a sharp mouth to be angry with herself, just to teach her a lesson.

Xu Ping shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, grinning: "This...... As long as Miss Qiu agrees to help, I don't care, but ...... Brother Cai, how much bounty can adults give? ”

Qiu Min was dumbfounded when he heard this.

Cai Tao was stunned for a long time, and said with a smile: "Refreshing......, since the adults have opened their mouths, I expect that it will not be less than five hundred taels."

"Cheng, then five hundred taels! We're decided. Xu Ping turned around and laughed and left.

………………

Qiu Min went back to the house and had a big fight with Xu Ping, and finally angrily carried his luggage and went straight to the prefect's yamen, Yan Wu shook his head and smiled bitterly when he saw this.

Seven days later, Zhao Wenhua convened subordinate officials, county magistrates, and silver mine owners to discuss the prohibition of private mining of silver mines, with a total of more than 100 people, but only the governor Xu Ping was not notified.

During the meeting, most of the mine owners opposed the regulations proposed by the government, and the talks broke down, and the next day, these mine owners were so bold that they instigated hundreds of tribesmen and unemployed vagrants to surround the prefect's yamen. In the end, Qiu Min stepped forward and led the three classes of Yamen soldiers to arrest the mine owner who was behind him, and the people who surrounded the Yamen immediately retreated.

The prefect Zhao Wenhua praised Qiu Min's actions, and when he heard that he was rewarded, he also gave an additional pair of mutton fat jade bracelets, which became a beautiful talk in the market for a while.

Hehe, I didn't expect this stinky girl to really have two brushes, and she was stunned to complete such a tricky errand! Xu Ping took a sip of tea, feeling sour in his heart.

Half a moon later, in the night, Xu Ping suddenly woke up from his dream, the fire outside flashed and the voices were noisy, ran to the lobby to take a look through the crack in the door, and was stunned, only to see hundreds of people holding torches, sticks, shovels, forks, hoes, and rushing to the prefect's yamen with enthusiasm......

Yan Wu, who was beside him, gasped and said, "Oh no, Lord Zhao may have provoked a change in the people......"

Early the next morning, several lieutenants broke into the lobby of the governor's mansion, and the person at the head said loudly: "Xu Ping, the governor of Yanping, will quickly go to the governor's lobby to reply......

Xu Ping got dressed indiscriminately and came to the lobby to ask for details.

The first lieutenant glanced at him with disdain, and said with a sneer: "Lord Xu, you still have the face to ask, the closure of the mountain and the ban on mines was originally an errand of your Governor's Mansion, but I didn't expect you to be cowardly and incompetent to take the credit, and let Governor Zhao take the cylinder for you, hehe, I have been on an errand for more than 20 years, and I have never seen such a brazen person."
