Chapter 34 (Kneel down and thank the good brother 'Chaoyun Hengai' for his two silver coins
Cute!!!)
"What case? Of course it's a major court case."
Facing the junior sister's doubts, Ouyang Rong chuckled. At this time, the carriage stopped at the gate of the county government office, and a soldier helped him open the curtain.
"Thanks."
Ouyang Rong jumped out of the carriage, and Xie Lingjiang also followed, but E Mei frowned even more:
"A major court case? Is there one in Longcheng County?"
"Who said it had to happen in Dragon City?"
"If it didn't happen in Longcheng, then why send troops to Longcheng to handle the case?"
"Sometimes it's more useful if a murder occurs outside the county than if it occurs within the county."
Ouyang Rong squinted his eyes as he looked at the Longcheng County Government Office, which was surrounded by three hundred elite soldiers. The east warehouse where the accounts and tax collection were stored must have been blocked by Qin Duwei and his men.
The military service of the Great Zhou Dynasty implemented the fubing system. The basic organizational unit of the fubing was the Zhechongfu. There were more than 700 zhechongfu in the ten realms in the world. The distribution showed a pattern of "centering in the middle and controlling the outside" and "emphasis on the inside and light on the outside".
.
Luoyang, the Guannai Road where Chang'an is located, has nearly half of the Zhechong Prefectures; the rest are mostly guarding the borders or located in important towns in the world. There are relatively few Zhechong Prefectures in the south, and there are only six in the entire fertile Jiangnan Road.
Jiangzhou is called Jiujiang in the Qin Dynasty and Xunyang in the Han Dynasty. Yes, it is the Xunyang where "Xunyang River sees off guests on the first night". This place is the mouth of the Three Rivers and the thoroughfare of seven provinces. Water transportation is developed, so there is a Zhechong Mansion, which controls
Crucial.
However, on ordinary days, the local governor, even the governor of Jiangzhou, could not mobilize the soldiers of Jiangzhou Zhechong Prefecture.
This is what Xie Lingjiang is curious about right now. She walks into the county government office with Ouyang Rong, thinking on the way:
"The court murder case outside the county... Senior brother is talking about... the major corruption case in Jimincang, Jiangzhou?"
"Junior sister is smart." Ouyang Rong said casually.
"But how did you find Longcheng County? Is there someone in the county involved in the case?"
"I don't know if anyone in Longcheng is involved in the corruption case of Mi, but I do know. As for the investigation, I will check everywhere and the case will come out. Although it is very likely that the case found is not Mi's case, but when Mi's case is found,
It doesn’t matter if the case is settled.”
The young county magistrate said with a smile, and the two of them approached the east warehouse. From a distance, they could see the official building surrounded from the inside and outside. He turned around and finally told the cause and effect:
"I wrote a letter and handed it to Mr. Shen, the supervisor of Jiangnan Province who is handling the case in Xunyang City. Longcheng County is located at the entrance of Yunmengze and the Yangtze River. Ships entering and exiting the Yangtze River from Jiangzhou must pass through Longcheng and Jimincangli.
The rice smuggled out by Shuoshu is very likely to flow quietly through Penglangdu, or even be transferred and unloaded here."
Xie Lingjiang suddenly realized, "So it turns out that Mr. Shen Xisheng is the censor sent by the empress to provide disaster relief and investigate the case. He does have the power to mobilize troops? So he directly sent three hundred cavalry to assist you in investigating the case?"
Ouyang Rong nodded slightly and shook his head:
"If that's all, Supervisor Shen can at most send someone over to investigate. He directly gives me full responsibility for the three hundred cavalry. The main thing is... we know each other.
"When my mother, Ding, returned to the capital of the gods after worrying about the queen, she was originally going to be promoted to the Yushitai and become a subordinate of Supervisor Shen, but then I risked my life to remonstrate before I took office... And in the main hall that day, this Shen
The supervisor also stood up and said a few words for me. Compared with other Shangguan officials from Yushitai and Lintai, it was quite fair.
"This can roughly tell the character of this gentleman, and there is nothing hidden in the letter I wrote. I gave a general introduction to the disaster relief situation in Longcheng County. I think Supervisor Shen should understand it."
Ouyang Rong sighed: "But he directly dispatched three hundred fine horses without saying anything. When Liu Lang reported, I was quite surprised."
Xie Lingjiang's eyes were bright and he looked at him and said: "The main reason is that senior brother's conduct as a gentleman is famous all over the world. Lord Shen has seen what he does with his own eyes, so he naturally trusts senior brother. This is a matter of one drink and one peck, everything is decided in advance. .”
Ouyang Rong lowered his eyes, patted his sleeves, and walked towards the heavily guarded east warehouse, "I'd like to borrow my junior sister's good words."
The east warehouse contains Longcheng County's household registers, adult registrations, customs and city taxes, and foreign business tax records for the past five years. In the past, it was an unattended place in the county government. The left-behind scribes were all sitting on the bench in the government offices. Come and eat ashes.
But at this moment, the East Treasury has become the most heavily guarded house in the government office and even Longcheng County, and it is also the focus of anxiety for the gentry and wealthy families.
Guoyi Captain Qin Heng and Longcheng Catcher Yan Liulang were waiting in front of the east warehouse. As soon as Ouyang Rong came with Xie Lingjiang, they saluted and reported the situation.
Ouyang Rong thanked him for his hard work.
At this time, Diao County Magistrate hurriedly came with a bunch of scribes.
The former's beard was almost gone, "Mingfu Mingfu, what is this, what is this, you are so good, why did you bring troops here?"
Ouyang Rong nodded and said: "Settling accounts."
"This is so good, what's the point?"
"Master Diao, do you think this is a good thing?"
"What does Mingfu mean?"
"Outside the city there are common people who cannot afford to eat. On both sides of Butterfly Creek in the city, there is a single tycoon who is richer than the county government. Master Diao thinks this is a good thing?"
"This...it has been accumulated by our ancestors for generations. What can we do? We can't just rob it, right?"
Ouyang Rong shook his head: "Robbing? That's not possible."
Prime Minister Diao County breathed a sigh of relief, but the next sentence he heard made him tremble with fear.
Ouyang Rong nodded: "But if it's not theirs, it's not too much for me to take it back after settling the accounts, right?"
He poked out a slender white palm from his sleeve and said with a smile showing his white teeth:
"Besides, let's forget about several generations of ancestors. We don't have that much free time, so I'll go back five years and check. It's not much. You have been rich for so many years, so your hands and feet should be clean by now, right?"
"Then... what if it's not clean?"
"If it's not clean, then go and clean it for them."
"..."
The Prime Minister of Diao County looked around and said helplessly: "Then since it is about settling accounts, why did you kick out all the secretaries and clerks who manage the East Treasury? They are the ones who are most familiar with settling these accounts."
"I don't need people like you. I have the manpower. The scribes who have followed me in the disaster relief camp on the outskirts of the city to conduct accounting and co-ordination these days. Seeing that they are doing a good job, let them do the calculations."
Ouyang Rong turned around and gave some instructions carefully. Yan Liulang left to find someone. After a while, he brought over a group of scribes who were familiar to Ouyang Rong.
When everyone was gathered, Ouyang Rong said calmly to the soldiers at the entrance of the warehouse: "Open the warehouse."
Then he pointed at the door that was slowly opening:
"I would like to see if this place is filled with rats like Jimin Cang.
"The Dragon King Liu's family must be the first to settle the accounts. What a good word 'Liu', which is born with water, and when water overflows, it will prosper!"
The young county magistrate stood tall on the top step, turned around at this moment, and said loudly to the people below:
"Don't say that my official is bullying the people. I will investigate here today openly and follow the procedures. I have said that I will only do one thing in Dragon City this time. Then, next, every account will be handed over.
Everyone, take a look and it will make me dizzy, how come the Liu family is getting rich every year despite having troubles every year!"

(PS: When I woke up on New Year’s Eve, I saw that Junzi and Sword Girl were on the station-wide broadcast? Am I still dreaming?
When I took a closer look, it turned out to be real!
After confirming his eyes, this guy "Chaoyun Hengai" is a good brother who has passed away!
The sword girl is a cute girl with silver.
Gentleman is another silver cute.
It was too strong and filled up directly.
The beaten dog author finally experienced a little bit of "life is like a cool article" QAQ
Thank you to the good brother "Chaoyun Hengai". If you look closely, you will see that he is an old book friend from Jian Niang. I am really in tears!
In fact, what moved Xiaorong more than money was the sense of accomplishment and happiness of being recognized by others.
If you tell your family and friends that there are people in the world who like your books, they will be dubious and think that you are selling melons to amuse yourself;
But if you tell them that there is such a book friend who rewarded two of you, Bai Yin Meng, who have never met each other, and tell them the value of Bai Yin Meng, they will immediately understand that at least what you are writing is not a piece of nonsense that no one cares about.
Trash does not mean sitting in a small room all day long and not doing any real work, wasting time.
We don’t need recognition from others, yet we so long for recognition from others.
Thanks to brother "Chaoyun Hengai", you gave me a crown that can always raise my head and face my family members who don't understand my code words.
I would also like to thank all the book friends who have spent time reading The Gentleman and the Sword Girl. The subscription money is worthless compared to the time you have spent.
And when I think of book friends, including the "Chaoyun Hengai" brother, spending precious energy and time reading the simple stories I wrote... A writer's greatest honor is nothing more than this.)
Finally, let’s talk about the extra update that everyone likes to hear: Ahem, brother “Chaoyun Hengai”, a gentleman will add ten more updates! But the extra update may have to be placed after it is put on the shelves QAQ
As for Sword Girl, Xiaorong was thinking, why not go back and create a bonus episode for your favorite heroine, Yourong, Qingjun, Xiaoxiao, etc. Wait, they should be together, right?
No way, no way... Damn it.
You are not allowed to attend the silver party.jpg
