The stone pipe belt wants to see the prefect,

The prefect immediately asked the rich man and his uncle to avoid it,

The prefect immediately greeted him.

The prefect shouted inside,

Please have a stone pipe belt.

Immediately his servants shouted,

Please have a stone pipe belt.

The stone pipe belt wears a big official hat and a big official robe,

also carried a waist knife,

The stone pipe belt is a military attaché,

It's also normal to carry a waist knife,

The stone pipe strode into the door.

The officials shouted all the way.

The stone pipe was taken in,

The prefect greeted him outside the hall,

The two of them sat down,

A maid poured them tea,

The maid withdrew immediately after pouring the tea,

The prefect please take the tube to drink tea,

He said a word of please,

The stone pipe belt said that you are welcome,

Two people pick up the teacup,

None of them drank tea.

The stone pipe belt is also the appearance of a hero,

Tall horses with a big face and a big beard,

Wearing a big official hat is very imposing.

Stone pipe belt speaks,

Now there are many hungry people in the city.

The prefect immediately replied,

Now these hungry people are coming into the city in droves,

This is a red flag,

Your officers and soldiers must be vigilant,

Prevent these hungry people from wreaking,

Affect public order.

The prefect took the tea bowl and stirred the tea a few times with the lid of the bowl,

Then took a sip of tea.

The stone pipe belt replied,

These are all things within the scope of our officers and soldiers.

Our officers and soldiers will definitely do a good job,

But now there are years of famine,

The government's tax revenue continues unabated,

There are great powers out there,

There are so many hungry people in the interior,

Those who have money and food,

Taking the opportunity to raise prices,

It's really hard for ordinary people to live,

The common people had to flee to other places,

Scattered and fled,

Begging along the streets,

In the opinion of this officer,

The government should open a warehouse to release grain,

relief to these hungry,

to solve their urgent needs.

The prefect is an old official,

At this time he did not speak,

He just sipped the tea slowly,

Listening to the story of the stone pipe belt,

The prefect heard it.

He replied with a sneer,

The stone pipe takes you with what you say easily,

We opened a warehouse in Ximen Mansion to release grain,

When the hungry people got the news,

They flocked to it,

All into our city,

Social security in our city,

I'm afraid it's very dangerous,

When the time comes, the bandits disguise themselves as hungry people,

to the city to kill people, set fire to rob,

You officers and soldiers are too busy to keep up,

Isn't that looking for something to do?

The stone pipe belt replied immediately,

I thought your words were wrong,

It's not like there's nothing to look for.

If everyone can't eat,

They are dying of hunger,

Do you think those hungry people will take risks?

When the time comes, something unexpected,

It's better than starving anyway,

At that time, the number of people suppressed by our officers and soldiers will not be enough,

And now we're opening a warehouse to release grain,

It's to prevent this from happening.

In the event of a civil uprising,

When the time comes, this situation will not be easy to manage.

When the prefect heard this,

He didn't think so,

Although the stone pipe belt said that the matter was very serious,

But none of this happened,

It's happening,

There is repression by the official army,

They don't have to be afraid.

So the prefect didn't pay attention to it at all.

The prefect looked at the stone pipe belt and said with a sneer,

It turns out that the stone pipe worries about the country and the people,

That's what it's about.

The stone pipe belt bent around for a long time and replied,

I am here for the matter of Zhuang Tianlong and Zhuang Dihu.

When the prefect heard this, he knew that this was the real purpose of the stone pipe to meet him.

The prefect hummed seriously.

The stone pipe belt will speak immediately,

Zhuang Tianlong and Zhuang Dihu are both kind hunters,

They all hunt for a living,

I will never commit robbery or murder,

I hope that the prefect will be aware of everything.

The prefect immediately replied,

Plaintiff Wan Shanren,

He's the proof,

What's more, Zhuang Tianlong and Zhuang Dihu have all confessed,

And they drew a charge on the confessions,

It can be said that there are both human and material evidence,

What to say now? It's late.

The stone pipe belt replied,

Now the government has a bad custom,

This custom does not exist now,

That's the old tradition,

That's torture,

There are advantages and disadvantages to torture,

torture, often unjust,

The reason why Zhuang Tianlong and Zhuang Dihu confessed to confessing,

It was all tortured and confessed,

The rich man is tyrannical and oppresses the people!

The people there know that

Where he is a man of all good, he is simply a man of all evil.

This remark made the prefect frown,

Don't believe this wicked man, Lord Governor,

The prefect took bribes from the rich man,

He doesn't like to hear such words,

But he can't refute it yet,

He didn't like to hear it, so he got up and walked inside.

He took a few steps inside,

He thought for a moment and turned around.

He asked the stone pipe belt,

Stone pipe belt is so concerned about this case,

What is your relationship with Zhuang Tianlong and Zhuang Dihu?

Isn't it related to them?

This sentence made the stone pipe speechless,

He just replied, this.

The prefect laughed out loud on the other side,

The prefect laughed and said,

Since you are related to the family,

You help them to say good things,

This is not surprising,

This is also human nature.

The prefect's sarcasm,

It's a sarcastic stone pipe belt,

Say good things for your relatives,

interference in case handling,

But he took a bribe, and he didn't dare to mention it.

He just knocked on the side and said,

So all aspects of this case have to be taken into account,

Flatten this bowl of water,

Otherwise, if the bowl of water is uneven,

will drop the handle,

It's not easy to do.

The stone pipe belt was angry when he heard it,

The stone pipe belt stood up and said angrily,

How can the two be compared?

Zhuang Tianlong and Zhuang Dihu are both kind hunters,

The rich man is a wicked man who takes by force,

Good people are condemned to robbers,

but the wicked who take by force are said to be good,

Is this simply reversing black and white?

This sentence hits the nail on the head,

The prefect immediately smiled and said,

The pipe band spoke seriously,

That's not what I mean,

You are mistaken,

These things must be considered in the long run,

You may be seated, you may be seated.

The two of them calmed down again,

sat down in a chair,

After sitting down, the prefect replied,

Shi Guandao personally inquired into the case,

I'll definitely give you a face,

You wait three days,

In three days' time, I must give you a satisfactory account of this case.

The stone pipe belt is very satisfied with it,

He replied with a fist,

Lord Xie Zhifu,

The lower official took his leave.

The stone pipe belt stood up and wanted to go,

The prefect stood up and said,

Recently, I've heard that banditry in Tsing Makan is very frequent.

I don't know when the stone pipe will go to suppress the bandits?

The stone pipe belt replied immediately,

Our officers and troops are preparing to go to encircle and suppress them in three days.

The prefect asked,

I've heard that a new gang of bandits has come to Qingmakan,

This new gang of bandits is very powerful,

Their captain is called Zhang Zhongchen,

are all very powerful characters,

It will be very difficult for you to get rid of them.

Do you have any special solutions?

The stone pipe belt replied,

These bandits and thieves are not enough to worry about,

We can't defeat the eastern and western powers,

These bandits and hooligans, we will definitely defeat them.

The prefect suddenly said,

I heard that Ling Di Shi Shengli had dealings with the people of Qingmakan,

I can only tell Brother Ling,

If he has a connection with bandits,

Against our government,

Our government will not be polite,

We are an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth,

Come and don't be rude,

What you say can't beat the eastern and western powers,

Can't you beat these bandits and robbers?

Stone pipe belt seriously,

If my brother has a relationship with bandits,

I bumped into it,

I'll definitely treat him as a bandit,

Don't worry about that.

When the prefect heard this, he was relieved,

The prefect immediately replied,

I am very relieved about this.

I'm just asking.

As long as you can kill your relatives in righteousness,

Take the affairs of the court to heart,

I was relieved.

The stone pipe belt replied,

I took my leave under it.

The prefect told him,

The case of Zhuang Tianlong and Zhuang Dihu,

I'll send someone to investigate,

Look at the rich man,

Is there a means of use in the middle?

Were those officials tortured?

When I've investigated all these things,

I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation.

What they say,

The rich man and his uncle, who hid in another room,

They all heard it clearly,

Their hearts are troubled,

Having spent so much gold and silver treasures,

If you get this result,

They simply don't gain more than they lose,

The stone pipe belt said thank you,

Ready to go,

The prefect only said a word of please,

The stone pipe belt turned around and left,

Sent away the stone pipe belt,

The prefect touched his beard and thought about his thoughts,

At this time, the rich man and his aunt ran out.

The rich man fell to his knees and said,

The prefect spares his life.

The prefect touched his beard and suddenly laughed,

He laughed,

The uncle of the rich man was also shocked,

He also fell to his knees,

He also even said, help, the prefect wants to be the villain's master.

The prefect was bursting with laughter,

frightened the rich man and his uncle,

Don't know how he handles it?

Sister Zhuang received a letter.

The letter was written on a stone pipe tape.

The stone pipe belt was written on the letter.

The prefect has agreed.

The case needs to be re-investigated.

Three days later, the prefect will make a new judgment.

The prefect said that he would give me a satisfactory explanation.

Tell my brother Shi Shengli.

Don't get in touch with the bandits of Qingmakan now.

Otherwise, it will be known by the government, and the consequences will be unimaginable.

Sister Zhuang finished reading the letter.

She placed the letter on the table.

Don't know what she thinks?
