"Your Majesty, Ailing County ordered Yan Hong to see."

"Let him in."

"No!" This is really Cao Cao, Cao Cao. After a while, a middle-aged man who was sweating profusely and was tired and out of breath hurriedly entered the main hall of Linzi Palace, and paid homage to the Qingji on the throne: "Minister, Ling Yanhong of Ailing County, see Your Majesty!" ”

"His Majesty the First Emperor for ten thousand years, ten thousand years, ten thousand years!"

"Yan Hong, get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Yan Hong lowered his head and stood to the side. At this time, as Yan Hong's sworn enemy, Bao Xi, the county guard of Bohai County, frowned, and came out to say to Qingji: "Your Majesty, you are fortunate to visit Bohai County, and I have ordered all the civil and military forces of Bohai County to go to Linzi to see me. ”

"Yan Hong is late, it's really disrespectful!"

"Exactly!"

"Your Majesty, what Lord Bao said is extremely true. Yan Hong is disrespectful to His Majesty, and he should be punished! ”

"It's ridiculous that a petty official with a rank of more than 600 stones should let His Majesty and the princes wait."

"Even if Yan Hong is not executed immediately, he should be punished for the crime of neglect, the crime of great disrespect, and he must be removed from office." The civil and military forces of Bohai County spoke to Qingji and seemed to be very repulsive to Yan Hong.

It can be seen from this that Yan Hong's popularity is here in Bohai County. Qingji narrowed his eyes, put his eyes on Yan Hong's body, and asked slowly, "Yan Hong, why are you late?" ”

"You already knew about the fact that I was going to Linzi a few days in advance, and you were not prepared to see it? Late? "What you must know is that every time Qingji goes on patrol, he basically doesn't want to harass the local people too much and affect the local people's livelihood.

Therefore, not all officials of Bohai County, large and small, have to go to Linzi to see them. Qingji's stipulation is only that the county commanders and county magistrates of Bohai County must go to Linzi regularly to see the driver, and the rest of the county officials, county lieutenants, chief bookkeepers and other minor officials do not need to come to Linzi...... I saw Yan Hong at this time smile bitterly, and said, "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't dare to hide it." ”

"It was this morning that the minister learned from others that His Majesty would patrol Linzi, and let the minister wait for the county magistrate and the county magistrate of Bohai County to see the driver."

"How dare the minister slacken? Knowing that His Majesty was about to come to Linzi City, the minister rode a fast horse from Ailing and drove hundreds of miles all the way. ”

"That's right." Qingji looked at Bao Xi with a smile, and said slowly: "Bao Xi, it seems that you failed to notify Yan Hong in time, which made Yan Hong late." ”

"Your Majesty......" Bao Xi subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, lowered his head and said: "The minister has already sent people to summon county orders from all over the country to Linzi to greet him." Maybe it was the people under him who didn't do well and failed to inform Lord Yan. ”

"I see." Qingji waved his hand, not wanting to get too entangled in this matter. Qingji glanced at Yan Hong again, looked up and down for a while, and asked with interest: "Yan Hong, everyone in this Bohai County is wearing shabby official robes, why are your official robes so glamorous?" Seeing that Qingji finally noticed, Yan Hong knelt on the ground again, and said with a solemn look: "Your Majesty, the shabby official robe does not mean that he is a good official and a clean official. ”

"The bright official robe does not mean that he is a corrupt official and a dirty official."

"No man can be a face, and the sea cannot be measured. The minister has something to tell His Majesty. ”

"Say."

"The minister wants to impeach Bao Xi, the county guard of Bohai County, and others, during Bao Xi's tenure, he accepted bribes many times and formed a party for personal gain, only because they acted in concealment, they could deceive their superiors and subordinates." As he spoke, Yan Hong took out a book from his sleeve, handed it to Qingji, and then said: "Your Majesty, this is the list of corrupt officials and corrupt officials in Bohai County that the minister has collected through secret visits in the past three years, and there are traces of his crimes. ”

"Your Majesty sent someone to find out. This is the roster, please look at it! ”

After "......" Qingji took over the chapter, he did not read it, but put the chapter on the eucalyptus and looked at Yan Hong calmly.

"Your Majesty......"

"Yan Hong, you are just a county magistrate, and you are not an official of the imperial history, so if you act like this, you will inevitably be suspected of being more and more dead."

"Your Majesty!" As soon as he heard this, Yan Hong suddenly became anxious, and said angrily: "What the minister said is true!" ”

"Although the minister is not the official of the imperial history, he is also the courtier of His Majesty, the courtier of Dawu!"

"Ministers also have the obligation to report the corruption of others!"

"Your Majesty, look at the shabby official robes that Bao Xi is wearing, in fact, this is a means for Bao Xi to loot money!"

"Three years ago, Bao Xi took office as the county guard of Bohai County, and he wore such a shabby official robe."

"He is a county guard, in charge of the government affairs of Bohai County, cronyism and not to mention, his appearance pretends to be honest and upright, but in fact he has a bad stomach."

"Bao Xi reuses those who wear shabby official robes, just because the official robes are all sold by him, an old official robe can be sold for 100,000 yuan, or even 300,000 yuan at a high price!"

"Isn't that a ridiculous joke? Your Majesty, those officials who are unwilling to be close to him and unwilling to go along with him will either be belittled or put on the shelf, and it will be even more difficult to be an official for one term. ”

"Such a corrupt official, such a traitor of the country, if Your Majesty does not punish him severely, where is the law of the country? What is the principle of heaven? ”

"Your Majesty, please be aware of it!" As soon as the words fell, Yan Hong knelt on the floor and kowtowed to Qingji.

"Yan Hong, you don't spray people with blood here!" Bao Xi was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, pointed at Yan Hong and reprimanded: "The old man is an official, and his sleeves are breezy, and he has a good reputation in the government and the opposition!" ”

"All the people under my rule shall not be praised by all the people, but shall you be able to slander the deeds I have made?"

"Your Majesty, Yan Hong is slandering the minister! Defamation! ”

"Your Majesty, please be the master of the ministers!" Before Qingji could speak, all the civil and military officers in Bohai County spoke to Qingji, saying good things for Bao Xi, and at the same time accusing Yan Hong of spewing blood.

"Silence!" Seeing that everyone said a word about you, a word for me, and kept talking, Qingji waved his hand and interrupted their words.

The huge palace finally quieted down again. Qingji set his eyes on Yan Hong's body and asked, "Yan Hong, do you have any evidence to impeach Bao Xi and others for corruption and bending the law for corruption, forming a party for personal gain?" ”

"Yes." Yan Hong nodded and said, "Your Majesty, although Bao Xi acts in concealment, he looks like a clean official on the surface, but he can't hold the fire in paper. ”

"Bao Xi's family rolls and relatives have a lot of land and property in their names, all of which he has looted for decades as an official."

"The account bookkeeper can't find it, but with His Majesty's ability and the ability of the Black Ice Platform, it must be easy to verify Bao Xi's private property."
