County office.

The inner hall was empty, Fu Yuanlong was sitting on the main seat, and Xu Chong was standing under the hall with his hands down.

"That's about it."

Fu Yuanlong rubbed his temples, "Let's talk about it, how to end it now." ”

He had completely calmed down.

Sun Yurong is gone, and it has become an indisputable fact that the bloody guards have lost the important bargaining chips that they instinctively hold in their hands.

With such a big responsibility, at least it is a dismissal investigation.

The priority is to find a solution, and nothing else matters.

"Your Excellency, are you worried about the court's accountability?"

Xu Chong's eyes were steady, and his voice was neither humble nor arrogant, "This matter is all caused by the dereliction of duty of the lower officials, and the lower officials are willing to write to explain their own mistakes, and they will not implicate the adults." ”

"Don't say it's useless."

Fu Yuanlong smiled disdainfully: "This is not something you can afford if you want to." ”

"That water ghost, what's called Zhou, Zhou Ze, right."

Fu Yuanlong knocked on the table, "How much do you know about him?" ”

"The lower officials have already checked the file."

Xu Chong opened his mouth to answer. "Zhou Ze was selected by the Ministry of Officials thirteen years ago and was assigned to Canglong as the position of chief bookkeeper until now."

"During the thirteen years, Zhou Ze had neither any major faults nor any political achievements."

"Thirteen Years ...... Ago"

Fu Yuanlong was in a low mood, "It seems that he was coerced, and he is not a thief." ”

If this is the case, in addition to letting Sun Yurong go, he will also add a charge of failure to investigate and cowardice.

The situation is not optimistic.

"No, Xia Guan thinks it's the opposite."

Xu Chong said loudly, "It is the thirteen-year term of office that shows that Zhou Ze has a problem." ”

"Huh?"

Fu Yuanlong perked up, "Let's talk about it carefully." ”

"Yes."

Xu Chong arched his hand and talked eloquently.

"In the first nine years, Zhou Zeli completed the exam three times, and the comments were all competent."

"No matter what means he uses, it stands to reason that the ninth year of the general examination should be the most ordinary."

"But Zhou Ze's comments in the general examination are incompetent."

"And in the twelfth year, he became competent again."

Before he finished speaking, Fu Yuanlong's brows furrowed tightly.

Daqing's local official examination is held once every three years, and there are three evaluations of competent, ordinary, and incompetent.

Those who are incompetent are dismissed from their posts for the people, those who are ordinary are demoted and retained, and those who are competent are retained in their original posts.

Every nine years, there is a general examination in the capital city, and those who are competent after the three examinations are qualified, and those who are competent in the general examination are promoted, and those who are usually transferred and those who are incompetent are retained.

Under normal circumstances, those who can get three competent positions, the last time in the general examination should be a normal one, and they will be transferred to another place at the same level and continue to complete the next round of the examination.

But Zhou Ze was incompetent.

If you want to say that Zhou Ze's main book is getting worse and worse, after the general examination, he is once again competent.

No matter how you look at it, it's boring.

Fu Yuanlong's eyes lit up, "Go on." ”

"Zhou Ze's test is in the hands of the county commander Wu Wenjing, if Zhou Ze is a water ghost......"

"Coercion!"

Fu Yuanlong stood up suddenly, "Wu Wenjing was coerced by him and had to give a competent evaluation!" ”

"That's the only way it makes sense."

Xu Chong nodded.

"So... Is he planning to start from the main book and sneak into the court step by step? And the incompetence of the general examination is because he cannot coerce the officials of the prefecture and city......"

Fu Yuanlong continued along this line of thought, and soon frowned again, "But in this case, why does he continue to stay in Canglong after the general examination?" It's been a wasted nine years, and he plans to gamble with another nine years? ”

"What if Zhou Ze is incompetent in the general examination, it is not that he can't do anything, but that he does it on purpose?"

Xu Chong asked rhetorically.

"Uh...... What do you mean? ”

Fu Yuanlong didn't understand.

"In other words, is it possible that from the beginning, Zhou Ze's purpose was to stay in Canglong?"

Xu Chong was a little tired, and secretly said that the reflex arc of this person is the length of the real horse.

"You mean ......"

Fu Yuanlong was shocked, and finally reacted, "Canglong County has what Taiping Dao needs!" ”

"Can't be sure."

Xu Chong shook his head, "Everything is just an inference from the lower officials, and it is also possible that Zhou Ze is not a thief, just an ordinary master book." ”

"Not a thief?"

Fu Yuanlong pondered for a moment, and then said categorically: "No! He must be a thief. ”

Are you kidding?

Not an anti-thief?

If he wasn't a thief, wouldn't he have to resist his mistakes?

Turn.

If Xu Chong's inference is the truth, he even has no merit!

Can a new generation of Taoists of Taiping Dao be compared to more than ten years of conspiracy?

Obviously not.

What a bright village!

Thinking of this, Fu Yuanlong immediately waved his hand, "Go, check Zhou Ze's residence, don't leave anything missing, and report it immediately once you find something." ”

Now everything is in place, but there is a lack of evidence that can prove that Zhou Ze is a thief.

"Yes."

Xu Chong bowed down to receive the order.

Fu Yuanlong watched Xu Chong leave, glad that he had resisted the killing intent at that time.

What is talent?

It's called a fucking talent!

Work hard, and your brain is so good.

"Hmm...... We've got to find a way to subdue him completely. ”

Fu Yuanlong pondered.

………

Mountain trails.

Zhou Ze's face was tense, and he walked with a single look, not daring to be fast or slow.

And the reason why he was so tired that he didn't dare to relax was the woman in a long white dress ten steps away.

Time goes back to half a day ago.

Wu Wenjing and Zhou Ze were playing chess in the backyard of the county government, discussing how to deal with Fu Yuanlong.

As it went down, there was suddenly an extra person behind Wu Wenjing, and a silent palm fell.

Wu Wenjing died like this.

Before Zhou Ze could react, he heard a voice without the slightest emotion.

"Do you want to die, or do you want to live?"

Joke.

When he Zhou Ze was scared?

Zhou Ze: "I want to live." ”

Dare to kill a Seventh Rank Commander for no reason, except for the anti-thief, he can't think of any other possibility.

So he was very cooperative and was taken hostage, and even changed into a strange dress.

At that time, Zhou Ze felt that although this female thief was a bit quirky, at least he was luckier than Wu Wenjing, and at least he had a choice.

Wu Wenjing died before he could say a word.

However, this kind of luck psychology can be maintained until Fu Yuanlong appears and collapses.

Didn't Fu Yuanlong chase and kill this thief for a long time? It must be stronger than the anti-thief, right? Why not get your hands dirty?

Zhou Ze didn't understand it very much.

In the end, it was only in combination with the line of blood that I understood.

He was used as a gun.

The water ghost in the line of blood should be dressed up in a cloak and hat.

The real water ghost is probably even stronger than Fu Yuanlong.

Otherwise, Fu Yuanlong would definitely not back down.

I'm being treated as a thief!

Zhou Ze's heart churned, full of extreme unwillingness and resentment.

If it weren't for his inferiority, he would love to use all the most cruel methods in the world on this female thief.

Nail extraction, nose cutting, tongue pulling, ear cutting, skin peeling......

Just thinking this, the figure in front of him suddenly paused.

Poof.

Zhou Ze knelt down very simply.

"Heroine spare her life!"
