Chapter 389: Taking the blame in advance, there is someone above

 After Tie Tang came out of Fenglei Mansion in Jiangdu, he attracted too much attention because he was carrying Zhang Yuan. Soon some brave people went to notify the police.

He has a time bomb in his hand, how can he have time to explain it to others?

Although Miaoshan tied up Zhang Yuan, he did not say how long the restriction would last.

If Zhang Yuan escapes at this time, how many people will die?

Tietang, who has been beaten by the dust of travel, runs all the way.

Originally, he wanted to use Flying Body to move forward, but Zhang Yuan is a real immortal god, and he can't be carried away at all. He can be sucked dry in an instant.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

As Tie Tang was on his way, he suddenly saw a middle-aged man with an extraordinary temperament blocking the front.

Unlike the other people who were avoiding him, he seemed to be looking at himself with great interest.

"Have you met a master?"

Tie Tang is not surprised either.

As Jiangdu City is the most important city, there are probably many immortals and gods in the city, and there will always be someone who dares to take action.

"I..."

He was about to open his mouth to defend himself, but he saw the middle-aged man wave his hand and the world around him was spinning.

When I looked back, I was already inside the government office.

Feng Yi, a man with a golden sword, sat down and asked with a straight face: "How come you, the majestic head of a county, don't sit in your own territory and wander around?"

Hanging out?

Tie Tang let go of his hand, and Zhang Yuan fell into the ground with a roar.

"Your Excellency is..."

"I am Feng Yi!"

Tie Tang's expression changed slightly, he didn't expect to meet a random person and it was the real owner.

He bowed his hands and said, "It turns out to be Master Feng. I have admired you for a long time. You and Miss Feng... are not very similar."

"A girl has changed in her eighteenth year. If she looks like me, it won't be a good thing." When Feng Bingyao was mentioned, Feng Yi's expression suddenly softened a lot.

"The adults are vast, but Tie is narrow-minded."

Feng Yi pointed to Zhang Yuan on the ground and asked: "Okay, if you don't say anything else, who is this?"

"She claims to be Zhang Yuan, the God of Spring Plague. Whether she is or not, she still needs to go to the Supervisory Hall to verify her identity."

"Oh, then I'll give you a ride!" Feng Yi didn't even think about it and immediately shook off the mud on his hands.

But Tie Tang waved his hands repeatedly: "Wait a minute, sir, I have something important to report."

Can this be a good thing?

Feng Yi touched his chin with one hand, feeling helpless: "I don't know what Lord Shang thinks, why did he let you become the county guard?"

Tie Tang pretended not to understand, and quickly dragged out all the plague incidents in his subordinate areas without hiding anything.

He can't hide it, and he can't hide it.

The reason why he couldn't hide it was because Qiu Zhengyang knew what happened. As a supervisor, he couldn't possibly shield Tie Tang.

It cannot be concealed because Tie Tang himself is a supervisor and would not do such a thing to deceive the superiors and conceal the truth from the subordinates.

"The plague caused more than 10,000 casualties. I saw thousands of people died in You County alone. Adding in the people from other cities, I am afraid that at least tens of thousands, or even more than 100,000 people died this time."

Tie Tang learned about the plague from official documents from Liu Pengfei of Yuncheng.

Yuncheng is not the source of the plague, Youxian is.

A period of time has passed from the time of infection in You County to Yuncheng, to Liu Pengfei's official document notifying Tie Tang.

During this period of time, the plague was enough to spread in all directions, killing countless people.

Tens of thousands, even more than 100,000.

These are not cold numbers, but living lives.

Even Jiuyao City, which suffered from the rebellion caused by the cult, was far from suffering so many casualties.

Now that Tie Tang has just taken office, he has encountered this kind of thing. It is impossible to avoid it.

This pot.

Not only did he have to carry it, Feng Yi also had to carry it.

After hearing that so many people had died, Feng Yi stood up and lifted Zhang Yuan up.

"Are you really acting in accordance with the law of heaven?"

His strength is much stronger than Zhang Yuan. Even if Zhang Yuan escapes, Feng Yi can suppress him with his backhand.

This is a true human overlord!

Zhang Yuan knew that a disaster was coming, so he couldn't help but hesitate for a while, but he still insisted on it.

"I act in accordance with heaven and have never violated the law. Is it possible that the Great Shang wants to start a war with the Immortal Court?"

He has a very tough mouth, and he will be slapped with a big hat whenever he comes up.

But Feng Yi's hand softened and he threw him to the ground.

It's not that he was frightened by Zhang Yuan, but from Zhang Yuan's previous hesitation, he had already guessed that this god of plague... was probably not a punishment on behalf of heaven.

"You... Hey, go to the Supervisory Hall first. I will report Chao Ge immediately. You wait in Jiangdu."

Tie Tangmian was embarrassed, not because he wanted to shirk the blame, but because he wanted to make friends and rush back to Qingshui County to deal with the plague.

"Can you please return first? I will apologize later."

"You go to the Supervisory Palace first, soon!" Feng Yi waved his hand and sent Tie Tang and Zhang Yuan directly to the Supervisory Capital.

——

Tie Tang's eyes blurred, and when he opened his eyes again, he only saw a dignified official staring at him curiously.

"It's better to meet than to be famous. It turns out that a hero comes from a young boy, I am Xu Jinghui!"

Tie Tang naturally knew who Xu Jinghui was. He was Qiu Zhengyang's immediate boss, the supervisor of Jiangdu Prefecture, and an equal existence to Xiang Tian of Shendu Prefecture.

"I am lowered to the post of official Tie Tang to pay my respects to Mr. Xu."

"You and I are colleagues, so why should we be polite? This is..."

Same.

After Xu Jinghui recognized Tie Tang, he quickly set his sights on Zhang Yuan.

After all, this is an immortal god and cannot be underestimated.

Tie Tang once again told what happened and handed over the letter written by Qiu Zhengyang.

With the handwritten letter from Qingshui County Supervisor Zhengshou, and Tie Tang as a dual-status supervisor, Xu Jinghui would naturally not be suspicious.

He quickly realized the seriousness of the matter and immediately summoned two deputy supervisors and asked them to interrogate Zhang Yuan personally.

"This matter is quite troublesome, and I'm afraid your position as county governor will no longer be secure."

Tie Tang spread his hands and said helplessly: "It's going to rain and my mother wants to get married. There's nothing I can do about this natural and man-made disaster."

Some things, some pots, will be yours if they fall, and you can't even hide.

It doesn’t matter whether you did it or not, it’s just destiny.

If the scale of this plague is not large and Tie Tang can detect and deal with it in time, it will not only be a fault, but also a great achievement.

But now so many people have died.

The people need an explanation, and the court needs an explanation. One or several people must stand up and take away all responsibilities.

As an official who directly manages the entire Qingshui County, he is naturally the best candidate.

Among them.

And the county guard has the greatest responsibility.

Xu Jinghui frowned and tapped the eucalyptus table with his index finger: "I have already reported it to the Holy Capital Supervisory Hall. You are one of our own, and the three hall masters will find a way.

If the God of Spring Plague did not lie and was really punishing God, then your guilt should be reduced a lot and you would be safe.

Just be afraid...

Hey, you are still too impatient."

There were some words Xu Jinghui didn't say, but Tie Tang understood what he meant.

To say that he is anxious does not mean dealing with the plague, but that he has made drastic reforms as soon as he took office, and even set up a city defense formation, offending most of the aristocratic families in Qingshui City.

Even before the plague broke out, there were already many aristocratic families exerting a lot of pressure in conjunction with their backgrounds.

Now, unfortunately, a plague has occurred again. Isn’t it just that the sharpest knife has been handed to these aristocratic families?

In Xu Jinghui’s opinion...

Tie Tang, the county governor who has only been in office for a few days, is probably sitting there until the end.

Officialdom has its own officialdom rules, and it doesn’t care what your qualifications are.

That's useless.

There are a lot of people with strength and talent. There are not many others in big business, but there are many people. What kind of genius can't be found?

Tie Tang didn't care. Anyway, the city defense formation had been finalized. Even if the governor was changed, several important officials in Qingshui City would still stand by him.

"It doesn't matter if I am a county guard or not. Anyway, I am too busy with official duties and have no time to practice. I just want to take this opportunity to have some peace and quiet."

Xu Jinghui shook his head: "It's not that simple."

"You are a person jointly recommended by the Shang Palace Master and the Taibao. You have only been in office for a few days. If you turn around, you will lose your official title. Where do you want the Palace Master and the Taibao to put their face?"

Tie Tang hesitated, but he really didn't expect this.

"I didn't think carefully, and I didn't want to involve the palace master and the Taibao."

Xu Jinghui paced back and forth in the hall, and then sat down, seemingly not too worried.

"Master Shang is not a person who is willing to suffer losses. He should have a way. Please sit down for a moment and I will make a pot of good tea."

"How dare you bother Mr. Xu...just let me come."

"This is a small matter. This is my newly arrived tea. You can't drink it in Qingshui County."

........

Time passed quietly, and two hours passed quickly.

The approvals from the Imperial Court and the Supervisory Hall were quickly sent back.

Xu Jinghui brought Tie Tang to the government office together. In addition to Feng Yi, important officials such as Jiangdu Prefecture's Fu Cheng, Chief Du Jing, and Fu Du Wei were also in place.

So many people died in the subordinate city. If you really want to count them all, they also have some responsibility, and this matter cannot be neglected.

Feng Yi showed the official document and did not read it out on the spot. Instead, he threw it directly to Tie Tang in full view of everyone.

"See for yourself!"

Tie Tang took it and flipped through it quickly, his mind not wavering at all.

The above did not make a final decision, but it was determined that Tie Tang, the county governor, had failed in his duties and would temporarily step down as county governor.

But because there were no officials to take office temporarily, he was asked to temporarily act as the county governor. He first dealt with the plague, counted the dead and injured, appeased the people, and cooperated with the inspection of the Supervisory Hall.

The result of a lot of talking is that nothing has changed, Tie Tang is still the county guard.

At this time, Xu Jinghui also took out the approval from the Supervisory Palace.

He had obviously seen it in advance, and he couldn't stop smiling.

"There was a plague in Qingshui County. It was a huge incident, with many casualties, and the local officials could not escape the blame. The Supervisory Palace monitors the world under the order of the Emperor, and this incident cannot be ignored.

Qingshui County Supervisory Envoy - Tie Tang is specially promoted to lead Qingshui Supervisory County officials to investigate this case!"

As soon as these words came out, all the officials present were shocked.

Can it still be like this?

Tie Tang also did not expect that the Holy City Oversight Hall would make such a decision.

"Co-author..."

"Let me check myself?"

"Isn't this a little bad... It seems to be pretty good."

Feng Yi sighed and looked at the heroic young man in front of him. He did not expect this result.

"Governor Iron, there is no time to delay the plague. You must return as soon as possible to deal with it."

"I obey your orders!" Tie Tang bowed, turned around and left.

When he walked to the door, he heard the sound of Feng Yi gritting his teeth again.

"After returning to the county seat, I also ask Iron Governor to cooperate with the inspection of the 'Iron Supervisory Envoy'. Don't slack off, and don't push back or push back."

"Sir, please be careful, Tie will understand!"

Tie Tang's cheerful voice came from outside the door.

"This kid deliberately named himself Tie." Xu Jinghui also couldn't laugh or cry.

Other officials were also whispering to each other and discussing. They did not expect that Shang Yue would defend Tie Tang in this way. This was already an obvious statement.

Feng Yi looked around and knocked on the eucalyptus table to calm everyone down.

"Everyone..."

"You have also seen what it means. I don't need to say more. If you are still going forward against the wind... it will be a bit unsightly.

Those things that you can stay out of...it's best not to talk too much."

All the officials looked around and knew that Feng Yi was talking about the Qingshui County family, so they all fell silent.

A few moments.

Someone has spoken.

"Some things cannot set a precedent. Although this journey is long and difficult, we still have to keep looking as we go, and we will not reach the end... Does anyone know where that is?"

"If the road to hell ends at the end, how should you deal with it? This is all I have to say, please think about it."

"Thank you for your advice!"
