It was the first time he had seen so much money, and his first reaction was panic.

He is not a fool, Lord Lin gave himself such a small county order with so much money, if he doesn't want to do anything, how can it be.

But the wooden box seemed to have taken root in his hands, and he couldn't earn so much money in his lifetime.

Wuzhong itself is a poor place, although it is quite close to Yinchuan, but it is not favored by the land lord, the land is barren, although there is no shortage of water near the Yellow River, but the annual harvest will be enough to eat.

As long as he doesn't owe the harvest, he burns high incense.

It is precisely because of this that he has been here in Wuzhong for fifteen years, ten years, others are moving places every three years, but he has been there for ten years.

His political achievements are not enough to be promoted, Wuzhong is not good, and no one wants to come.

But if he has this money, he will definitely be able to go up if he uses it to operate.

There may have been a moment when he wanted to return the silver ticket, but he didn't.

Lin Jingdan also saw the attitude from his behavior, and on the third day, he came to the county office again, and he told He Renke that he had recruited migrant workers and was about to start construction.

He Ren laughed flattering and asked him if he needed to send someone to help.

Lin Jingdan rejected him with a smile, and said that there were enough people on the dam, and there were many things in the yamen, and he would watch and deal with the things on the dam, so he wouldn't bother the people in the yamen.

He Renke knew that there must be something greasy in this, but he also knew that Lin Jingdan was here to remind him that after receiving the money, he would leave nothing behind.

He Renke guessed that he would embezzle the money on the river embankment, but he didn't take it to heart, after all, the river officer who came here to repair the dam before would do the same, but not as generous as Lord Lin.

This kind of thing is tacitly known to the big guy, even if he doesn't give him money, he won't sue him.

This is a fat man, and those who can be sent to do this are all from the court, so he will not be overwhelmed and hit a stone with an egg.

After Lin Jingdan left, He Renke never paid attention to the things on the dam, and it was not the first time that the dam was repaired.

However, after Lin Jingdan repaired the dam and left, He Renke was still relieved, but he didn't expect him to be happy too early, it was not half a month, and the imperial court found out about Lin Jingdan's corruption.

Since the official sent Wu Zhong to find him, he knew that it was over, and the matter must have been exposed.

After He Renke finished speaking, he lowered his head in a dejected manner, and now, everything can only be left to fate.

He felt great remorse in his heart, how could he not resist the temptation in the first place, if only he had not taken the silver in the first place......

"Ho Renke, what about the five thousand taels of silver?"

Si Yunlan looked at He Renke's remorseful look, and he didn't feel pity for him at all, he knew why he had to do it today.

"Under the bed in my bedroom."

"He Renke, every time the Yellow River floods, Wu Zhong will be flooded, you are also a parent official, you are such a parent official, how can you be the people of Wu Zhong." Si Yunlan looked at He Renke in disgust.

Although he has only been here for three years, every flood season in the past three years, the dam in the Wuzhong section will burst in a small area, although it has not hurt anyone, but it has also harmed crops and people.

As an official of his parents and the people, he can't see the suffering of the people at all, "You are also an official!" ”

As soon as Si Yunlan's words fell, He Renke's body trembled, his whole face became even paler, and big drops of cold sweat slipped down from his forehead, like rain.

"The lower official is guilty, the lower official is guilty." He Renke had tears running down his cheeks, and the whole person was very decadent.

"I knew why I had to do it today." Si Yunlan said disgustedly.

"Come on, fight down, and detain them in solitary confinement." Li Su said coldly.

"Yes." The officers and soldiers stepped forward and dragged He Renke, who was sitting on the ground, out.

Si Yunlan looked at Li Su angrily, "Alas, tell me, he can be an official like this, this is a moth in the imperial court." ”

If you want to say how hateful he is, he doesn't have it, it's just inaction, disgusting.

Li Su was used to seeing this kind of official in the Criminal Department, and he had long been used to it, "Call the next one." ”

Not long after, Dong Qiliang was brought in.

"Jingyuan County Commander Dong Qiliang has seen adults."

After interrogating three people in a row, Si Yunlan was already a little tired and bored, "Let's talk about it, did you send someone to supervise Lin Jingdan when he repaired the river embankment?" Is there a quality problem with the embankment? ”

Their time was short, and there was no time for them to make a detour, and everything had to be resolved quickly.

Dong Qiliang was stunned for a moment when he heard his straightforward question, and replied, "The Yellow River embankment will be overhauled every few years, and it stands to reason that the local yamen should assist the river officials in building it, but there is no explicit provision.

I originally wanted to send someone to help, but Lord Lin repeatedly rejected my kindness, and as you know, he is a senior official from the capital, and I am just a small county magistrate.

Naturally, he didn't dare to disobey the order, so from recruitment to construction, it was presided over by Lord Lin himself.

However, I was not at ease, so I sent the master in the yamen to take a look every now and then, and I didn't find anything abnormal.

After Lord Lin left Jingyuan County, I also took people to the dam, using bluestone strips, wooden stakes, glutinous rice and the like, all of which are commonly used to build dams. ”

Li Su glanced at Dong Qiliang, this is a smart person.

"Lin Jingdan has ever thought of bribing you?" Si Yunlan asked.

Since Lin Jingdan sent money to He Renke, it is impossible to only send him money.

Dong Qiliang paused for a moment and said, "He did send it, and the money was handed to me in a box, and I didn't know what it was in at first."

As soon as I opened it, I didn't expect it to be a dozen silver tickets.

As soon as I saw the contents, I closed the box and handed it back to him.

After several rejections, he saw that I was resolute and took the box away. ”

Si Yunlan snorted coldly, and the wooden box put a silver ticket, and it was this set again.

"Where is the master you sent now?" Li Su asked.

"Lord Hui, he came to Yinchuan with his subordinates, and now he is in the courtyard of the Assassin's Mansion." Dong Qiliang replied.

Li Su: "Okay, you go down." ”

Dong Qiliang: "Yes." ”

"Go and bring that master here." Si Yunlan opened his mouth and said.

A short time later, an old man with a goatee was brought in.

"Villain Zhou has seen two adults."

"You are the master of Jingyuan County? When Lin Jingdan was repairing the embankment in Jingyuan County, you had to go and see it every once in a while? Si Yunlan asked.

"It's the villain."

"Did you see anything wrong or strange there? Tell us one by one. Si Yunlan said.

"Weird place?" Zhou Zeng frowned, "If you want to say that, the villain really remembers something, which is a little weird." ”

"You say."
