Don't worry about it, drag your opponent into the mud pit first and roll with you for a few times.
Regardless of whether Fangzhou cooperates or not, as long as the county magistrate Zhang Wei sends out the official document escorting Han Qing back to Ding'an County to assist in the investigation of the fire in the grain and grass depot, the strategy will be half successful!
In fact, it would be better if Fangzhou refused to cooperate.
It is also confirmed that local officials in Ding'an County are fighting among themselves and framing each other.
As a result, no one in Ding'an County would believe the accusation against Han Qing. Han Qing's subsequent accusation against officials in Anding County also lost credibility.
No matter how much hidden information Han Qing knows about the fire in the grain and grass depot, no matter where he reports the evidence, the officials who receive the case will immediately think of the matter as an infighting among local officials, and will not immediately give sufficient support.
Pay attention to.
Since it is an official conflict, no matter how powerful the family behind Han Qing is, they can only follow the rules of the officialdom. They cannot use too much force, and it is difficult to get the cooperation of the Yongxing military envoys.
Moreover, it will also make many people think that the nephew of the Han family is too useless. Even a group of local officials cannot handle it without the help of family strength. Furthermore, they do not believe the evidence Han Qing produced.
In this way, the Red Lotus Sect's own people placed in various envoys on Yongxing Military Road will be able to have more ample time and more reliable methods to completely eliminate all doubts in the case of the fire in the grain depot.
Furthermore, all the mistakes made by the Red Lotus Sect after the incident were eliminated.
High, really high!
I don't have twenty years of experience in officialdom, so I can't think of such a dirty but effective method.
He is worthy of being the star of Ding'an County officialdom. Apart from Master Zhou, there is no other person who could find such an appropriate countermeasure in such a short period of time after receiving the news that Han Qing had successfully escaped!
When they understood the subtlety of Zhou Chong's move, the clerk and the catchers were all convinced.
Next, there is no need for Zhou Chong to give any further instructions on how to operate it. The book office and the catchers are all masters of dirty work. With just one word from you and one from me, the contents of the entire official document can be quickly completed.
The county magistrate, Zhang Wei, secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He happily took out his official seal, stamped it on the official document, and then handed it over to a special official post to send the official document to neighboring Fangzhou.
After all this was done, the atmosphere in the second hall of the county government immediately became relaxed. Butler Zhang Bao took the opportunity to order people to serve the morning food, and everyone chatted happily while eating.
"Thanks to Master Zhou this time, otherwise, I really don't know how to deal with it for a while!" Seeing that everyone had almost eaten, the county magistrate Zhang Wei offered tea instead of wine and smiled to Zhou
Congratulations.
Although Master Zhou's countermeasures could resolve the big trouble at hand, he still had many questions in his mind and needed an answer. Therefore, at the right moment, he had to redirect the conversation back to its original direction.
"Your Majesty, don't be humble, you just don't bother to do it!" Master Zhou immediately heard the song and understood its elegant meaning. He smiled, picked up the tea cup, and respected the county magistrate from a distance. "However, there are some troublesome things to finish next.
We have to ask the county magistrate to take action in person. I and all my colleagues will definitely not be able to do it!"
"What is it that can actually embarrass Chief Zhou? I would like to hear the details!" County Magistrate Zhang Wei knew that things would not be as easy as Chief Zhou said, but he still asked with a smile.
"It was Lord Bai Tan who caused the trouble. Fortunately, Mother Lotus has already punished him with the help of sinners!" Zhou Chong put down the tea cup and began to explain in detail, "Master Bai Tan, on my order, went to the northeast to intercept and kill Han.
He was very bored and wanted to find a village to recruit some incense money..."
It turned out that in order to intercept and kill Han Qing, Zhou Chong mobilized the power of the Red Lotus Sect throughout Ding'an County. The leader of the White Altar who was stabbed to death by Han Qing the night before yesterday was the leader of one of the forces.
This man's surname was Bai and his given name was Liancheng. The brothers under his command were originally a group of bandits. So when they arrived at Ziwu Mountain, they couldn't stop. They found a remote village and wanted to make a fortune.
It happened that Dou Rong, the daughter of Dou Shang, a wealthy gentry in Doujiabao, took her maids and servants to take shelter from the rain at a farmer's house in the village. And Dou Rong, who believed that she had practiced martial arts for a few days, insisted on jumping out to "meddle in other people's business."
As a result, a conflict broke out when the two sides disagreed. Master Bai Tan became so ferocious that he beheaded all the maids and servants of the Dou family. Then he rode his horse and chased Dou Rong, who was trying to escape, and refused to let him go.
After chasing through two or three hills in one breath, he finally succeeded in capturing Dou Rong. When he learned that she was the daughter of the wealthy gentry Dou Shang, he was afraid of retribution, so he simply came up with the idea of raping her first and then killing her.
At that time, the rain was chasing people, and it was getting heavier and heavier. No matter how lustful Bai Liancheng was, it was not convenient to brave the heavy rain to enter the bridal chamber. So he looked around and finally found an abandoned ruined temple nearby and got in.
Coincidentally, Han Qing was hiding in the belly of the statue of Li Cunxiao in the ruined temple. In order to facilitate his own happiness, Master Bai Tan sent all his men far away.
Then, he himself was punished by Mother Lotus. When he was about to do his good deeds, he was shot to death by Han Qing who came out of Li Cunxiao's belly!
"This guy is too impatient. Even if he goes back to the village, it will be better than being in the temple!" After hearing that Bai Liancheng was full of evil, Zou Qingzhi, the clerk of the execution room, tapped the desk with his fingers and commented with regret on his face.
"Isn't that true? Although the Li Cunxiao Temple has been abandoned for many years, it was a place where incense was very popular when Huang was a child. How can you desecrate it casually!" The head catcher Huang Qian had the same idea as him and did not feel at all that he was raping a weak woman.
What's wrong? I just feel that the bandit Bai Liancheng should not choose to act in the temple.
"Ahem..." Zhou Chong coughed softly, worried that the two of them were taking the topic further and further. Then he smiled and handed over to the county magistrate Zhang Wei, "The daughter of Dou Lizheng should have gone with the man named Han.
Fangzhou. After that, she will have to complain to his father. Therefore, it is necessary to ask the county magistrate to come forward and explain something to Dou Lizheng."
Before Zhang Wei could express his embarrassment, he smiled and quickly added, "What Zhou means is that we don't know Bai Liancheng. He heard that if he catches Han Qing, he will get a thousand reward in vain.
Only then did he lead his gangsters down the mountain. The county had already dispatched police officers to chop off the head of this man's body, as well as the few living minions under his command. Dou Lizheng, please don't make any mistake.
Believe the rumors!”
"Hmm -" Zhang Wei frowned, suspicious of Zhou Chong's tricks, "Tzuyu, how can Dou Lizheng believe this?"
"He definitely doesn't believe it. We are just giving him a step down. After all, Bai Liancheng is dead, and his daughter has not really been ruined." As if he had expected Zhang Wei to ask this question, Zhou Chong smiled.
Smile and explain with confidence.
"Aren't we being too disrespectful by doing this?" County Magistrate Zhang Wei still felt it was inappropriate and continued to ask with a frown, "Although Dou Lizheng has no ability, his eldest son-in-law was so embarrassed in front of the transfer envoy.
He is someone who can talk a lot."
"It's because of his eldest son-in-law that I need you, the county magistrate, to personally go and explain something to Dou Lizheng." Zhou Chong took over the conversation again and added with a smile, "In the worst case, I'll promise Doujiabao some taxes and corvees.
The benefits of the exam, and the two quotas for the Dou family's children to participate in next year's scientific examination. Bai Liancheng is dead, and the Dou family's land and clan members cannot be moved away. He, Dou Shang, cannot afford to lose money for someone who will get married sooner or later.
, we are in the same situation as others!" (Note: The imperial examination system in the Song Dynasty was not perfect, county-level selection did not require public examinations, the county magistrate could make the decision.)
"Well -" Zhang Wei murmured again in a low voice, and nodded helplessly for a long time.
"It's all that Bai Liancheng, who is greedy and ruins things!" Knowing that the county magistrate Zhang Wei may not feel comfortable, Zhou Chong cursed in a low voice, "This kind of person should not have been allowed to join the religion in the first place. Fortunately, Mother Lotus appeared and borrowed the help of Han Qing
Sanction him. Otherwise, our major events will be delayed in the future."
"Well, that's true!" County Magistrate Zhang Wei thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
"Then there is County Honorable Lao. It is best for Dou Shang to write a letter to him before he learns the whereabouts of his daughter. This will also prevent him from listening to his daughter's cries and making preconceptions in the future!" Zhou Chong, however, was afraid of Zhang.
Wei was procrastinating in doing things and whispered again.
"Don't worry Ziyu, I will write to him immediately." Zhang Wei smiled and agreed seriously.
Since the county magistrate still had important things to do, it was inconvenient for Zhou Chong, Huang Qian and others to disturb him. Therefore, they all put down their teacups and stood up to leave.
The county magistrate Zhang Wei had to personally send everyone to the door. After everyone's backs were gone, he quickly turned back to the second hall, raised his leg, and kicked out the coffee table in front of Zhou Chong.
Half a foot away.
"Crash..." Teacups, trays and other items immediately rolled all over the floor. The housekeeper Zhang Bao was so panicked that he quickly ran into the second hall and lay on the ground to quickly clean up.
"Put it down, you don't need to do these things!" County Magistrate Zhang Wei was still angry and scolded him with a stern face.
"Yes, my old servant will find a few servants to come in now. Your Majesty, don't be angry with such people. They are all ignorant and only know how to look at the land in front of them." Zhang Bao, the housekeeper, knew Zhang Wei.
He was angry that Zhou Chong took the opportunity to issue orders to him, so he quickly stood up and explained carefully. "But their official career has long come to an end. When you become the prefect and prefect in the future, let's see how they behave in front of you."
of groveling."
"Hmph, sooner or later I will settle the account today!" County Magistrate Zhang Wei gritted his teeth and responded in a low voice, "I thought I had hooked up with the Holy Aunt, so I pretended to be powerful. Hmph, what about the Holy Aunt?
, at night, you still have to be pressed down by someone..."
Halfway through his venting, he was worried that the walls had ears. After thinking about it, he quickly changed the topic, "Where are our own people? Have any of them come back?"
"I would like to report to the county magistrate that Team Leader Wang has returned. Master Zhou was here just now, but the old servant didn't dare to let him see you!" The steward took a half step back and explained cautiously.
"You did a good job!" In front of his confidants, Zhang Wei did not hide the conflict between himself and Zhou Chong, "Master Zhou is Master Zhou, and I am an old man. You can't rely on him."
After thinking for a while, he quickly asked, "Wang Qi, can you tell whether Han Qing got out of trouble? That guy can't really kill more than 20 people single-handedly as Zhou Chong said?!"
"What Team Leader Wang said is more mysterious than this. County Lord, you should ask him in person, the old servant really doesn't dare to imitate casually!" Butler Zhang Bao was embarrassed by the question and responded with a grimace.
"You can just say it. One against twenty is already mysterious enough! I don't believe it, there is something more mysterious than this in the world!" Zhang Wei was stunned when he heard this, and immediately urged in a low voice.
"Well, that old servant really learned it!" Zhang Bao had no choice but to raise his hands and imitate Wang Qi, the class leader, and reported loudly, "Tell the county magistrate, there are rumors that Li Cunxiao appeared in the middle of the night the day before yesterday.
It was possessed by Han Qing. That’s why the people who went after him were picked off. Those who managed to escape were all frightened. No matter who asked, they always said those few words. Ten
Grandpa, the Third Taibao, have mercy on me. I know I was wrong. Grandpa, the Thirteenth Taibao, have mercy on me!"
