They vaguely felt that this scene sounded familiar.
He hid behind the crowd and whispered in his ears.
"...Jinli County? No, Jinli County is crazy? They want money, food, or life? They actually dare to use 'ghost stealing food' to close the case. Do you really think that this is Zheng Qiao from before?"
If I remember correctly, similar things have happened before.
But Zheng Qiao was still in power at that time. The host and guest still remember the flash of ridicule on Zheng Qiao's face.
There was no reaction on the surface, but secretly he arrested the mastermind, his wife and children, and cut them to pieces with thousands of cuts. Ling Chi turned into tens of thousands of crystal-clear "life movies" and rewarded those who had "successful in solving the case". The weather was hot at that time.
, the slices of meat are already stinky and infested with maggots as they are given to you. Those who refuse to eat will be killed on the spot for "contempting the ruler". Those who are willing to eat can just eat a few more plates, as long as they are enough.
How can a normal person withstand such torture?
Kill half, go crazy half.
Just listening to other people's stories makes me shudder.
Colleagues also whispered: "Whether it is the person before or the person now, they will not give anyone a chance to survive."
In fact, he personally feels that the survival rate in Zheng Qiao's hands will be higher. Because no matter how crazy and perverted Zheng Qiao is, he will still weigh the pros and cons. As long as the benefits to him outweigh the disadvantages, or it is to his taste, even if it is to kill Tian
If a hole is dug, Zheng Qiao will turn a blind eye and there is a certain chance of survival.
Now the king is different——
She will really kill the "ghost stealing food case".
Tell a cold joke——
In the years since Zheng Qiao took office, only over 200 officials have died at his hands. Last time, she slaughtered 300 to 400 people during the "Fire Dragon Burning Warehouse". Those who were lucky enough to survive had to spend their whole lives growing corn, picking cotton, and cultivating land.
In the wasteland, be the cheapest person.
What if we include the officials who are killed every year during inspections?
Haha, no matter what, there are two or three thousand.
Another colleague came over and said, "The situation in Jinli County, Kunzhou is different from the past. It is another major case."
It took Yuanhuang three years to completely recover Kunzhou.
It's not that Kang Guo didn't want to recover as soon as possible.
In fact, Yuanhuang captured Kunzhou at the beginning of the second year, but the original rebel forces in Kunzhou were elusive, cunning and vicious. They used the common people in Kunzhou as a shield, and broke them into pieces on weekdays to lurk among them to avoid conflicts.
The government encircled and suppressed.
When he relaxes his vigilance, he jumps out to cause trouble again.
In order to cause more trouble for the royal court, they organized forces to set fire to the fields during the autumn harvest on several occasions, causing heavy losses to the counties and counties of Kunzhou.
In addition to burning fields, there are endless assassinations and poisonings, and brave warriors are lured to become dead soldiers and self-destruct and self-immolate in crowded places. Every time this happens, dozens to hundreds of innocent people are implicated. People in Kunzhou are panicked and rebuilding
slow.
They remember that time very well.
Because the king is trolling people every day.
My old friend who worked in several other departments hugged me and cried, saying that working under Shen Tang’s tent was more stressful than working under Zheng Qiao’s tent. Zheng Qiao didn’t like to curse, he liked to torture people, and the current boss It not only tortures the body, but also tortures the mind.
At one point, I even had the idea of resigning.
It wasn't until the rebels in Kunzhou were wiped out that the atmosphere in the court returned to normal, and my old friend never mentioned resigning again.
After being reminded by colleagues, others reacted.
"Could it be the remnants of the rebels who did it?"
"You didn't kill them all?"
"It's not impossible. Besides..." The speaker secretly glanced in the direction of Shen Tang and continued to whisper, "The wealthy gentry from aristocratic families in Kunzhou have quite a lot of complaints against the Lord... What's going on with this matter?" Whether it was the rebels who did it or whether they were secretly involved, I really can’t say... My lord, she..."
This person did not notice the crazy winks of his colleagues, and he also wondered why several colleagues suddenly moved away from him.
"Why are you hiding so far away?" When you go to court seriously, you will be ranked first, but for a long-distance court like this, the position is not too important. They just sit at the back, and they can use the same language when chatting and fishing. Because of their spiritual shield, they are generally not discovered. Although they are among the twenty-four ministers, they cannot stand to work in the Ministry of Etiquette. They usually have nothing to say when they go to court, and no one cares about them.
"What's wrong with Gu?"
A familiar voice sounded from behind.
He felt like his scalp was going to explode.
Turning around with a pale face, he saw the gloomy-looking monarch standing behind him. He suddenly felt bitter in his mouth and wished he could plead guilty on the spot. Shen Tang took a deep breath and suppressed the fire in his heart: "If the Ministry of Rites is so free, you guys You can go to the Taishi Bureau to help Gong Su. You guys can write a 5,000-word review."
After saying that, he added: "Send it in tomorrow!"
Shen Tang is not keen on fines, demotion or anything like that.
She prefers to punish people to stay up late and write reviews.
Several people secretly wiped their sweat and came down, and quickly recalled in their minds which of their whispers just now was inappropriate. When Shen Tang said "the meeting is dismissed", they exited one after another and returned to reality. They looked at each other, with sad faces and a little bit of sadness. The little queen is afraid.
"Isn't it far enough away from the Yushitai?"
The Yushitai of Kang State was simply a nightmare for all officials.
The imperial censor is Gu Chi. He is proficient in reading minds and spirits, and he can catch people's faults with great accuracy, ranging from corruption and dereliction of duty to trivial matters in the inner chamber. There seems to be no information that he cannot get.
"We are close to Tanaka Cheng...could it be him?"
"Probably...not right?"
They were relatively unfamiliar with Gu Chi. They only knew that the medicine jar was the master's favorite, but they were familiar with the censor Zhongcheng.
Tian Zhongcheng, Tian Zhong, courtesy name Shouyi.
Zhongcheng, the last censor of the Xin Kingdom.
He was also the first imperial censor Zhongcheng in Kang State.
Even though this old boy looks upright, he is a complete troll. He is older and has a higher seniority. Their parents’ knees were weak when they saw Tian Zhong, let alone them. When the Xin Kingdom was destroyed, Tian Zhong’s whole family If you are convicted, you will be lucky enough to escape, but your whereabouts will not be known.
I don’t know where the Yushi doctor dug out the Tian family and his son who were living in seclusion in the countryside, and gave the Yushi Zhongcheng the high position. You must know that if there is no Yushi doctor in the Yushitai, the Yushi Zhongcheng is the actual chief of the Yushitai. Tian
Zhong refused to agree at first. He just wanted to flirt with his grandson and enjoy a family relationship, but he couldn't resist Gu Chi's tricks and was eventually persuaded to take up the post.
There are rumors that Tian Zhong's coming out of the mountain seems to be related to Zhongshu's order Qi Shan, but they looked at it with cold eyes. Qi Xiang and Tian Zhong did not interact with each other in private, and their expressions were indifferent when they met on weekdays. This shows that this rumor is untrue. This person should be too lazy to pay attention.
They fish.
"That's all. Now that the matter is over, let's write a review. If we can't hand it over tomorrow morning, the lord's anger will be..."
Although the words were not finished, everyone understood.
The thought of being hung up for self-examination makes my head hurt even more.
Who can tell them how to write this review? It’s just fishing for a temporary meeting. How can the review be written in 5,000 words?
The key is--
How can I write 5,000 words in one night?
The host and guest took a deep breath.
"That's it for now, let's go get some scriptures."
Seek lessons from brothers and sisters in other departments.
The fourth department of the Ministry of Etiquette was scolded less and punished even less, but it was different from the other departments. They were scolded and punished every three to five times, and they could write self-criticisms easily. Not to mention the 5,000-word self-criticism in one night, there were also doctors in the Kurabe Department.
I spent a night reviewing myself with 10,000 words!
Dr. Kurabe looked at the four of them and gave them some advice.
"...[Half-hearted] Yes?"
The four of them nodded: "Yes, I can, but I'm not skilled at it."
The four of them are not from high backgrounds, but they are not too low either. The training path given by their family is to become officials, and the word "half-hearted" is mostly used in military battles, so naturally they are not skilled in it.
Doctor Kurabe said: "Just use it, five thousand words, one thousand words for me, two thousand words for each of the two literary incarnations. I finish writing in the first half of the night, and I can still sleep in the second half of the night..."
The incarnation of literary spirit is not a human being, so there is no need for sympathy when being squeezed.
Four people: "...but this Yanling is not simple..."
Just because you can use it doesn't mean you are proficient.
Shiro Kurabe performs one on the spot.
The two incarnations of Wen Qi have exquisite appearances, almost the same as the original ones, and even their eyes have a bit of brilliance, as if they were strangers! The appearance of this kind of brilliance in the Wen Qi incarnation means that the practitioner has mastered [Half-heartedness] to a certain extent, and it must be
The four of them, who had worked hard, asked curiously: "How come you, a Kurabe-san, are so proficient in [half-heartedness]?"
"It is trained at the end of every year." Dr. Kurabe's face darkened, "[Half-heartedness] is a must for errands."
Four people: "..."
Although they were not very good at "Half-heartedness", it was better to have helpers than no helpers. After dilly-dallying, they finally managed to collect 5,000 words of nonsense before dawn. The four of them copied each other's translations and stated the same nonsense in different styles.
Looking at the results of the night, I breathed a sigh of relief.
I was too busy to give Shen Tang an errand.
Shen Tang was ready to go before dawn. She was riding on the back of a snow-white motorcycle, flipping through a few pages and handing them over to the guards: "I will send all these reviews to Gong Su later."
Four people: "..."
Seeing their reactions, Shen Tang became furious: "I plagiarized and didn't even remember to change my name! Do you think I'm blind?"
Good guys, four of us share the same name, right?
Four people: "..."
Fortunately, the Lord did not ask them to write a 10,000-word self-examination, and waved them off: "I will talk to you about court discipline issues later. I need to save my anger now."
The four of them returned to their carriages with their necks hunched.
Shen Tang suppressed his anger: "Everyone is too busy!"
Qin Li is not in charge of the Ministry of Rites, and these people below have learned how to fish. Thinking of the memorial Qin Li sent from Fengluo, Shen Tang thought about squeezing any of them to work part-time in the Taishi Bureau. If nothing else, these people's characters were written upside down It must be beautiful, the Taishi Bureau lacks something like this.
The functions of Taishi Bureau are similar to those of Qin Tianjian.
However, the Taishi Bureau established by Shen Tang was different.
It is better to say it is the Meteorological Bureau than the Qin Tian Jian.
Yes, the Weather Bureau.
Qin Li's way of being a scribe is combined with her way of being a prince, and he can use the power of the national seal to see the cloud conditions in Kang State. The Taishi Bureau can judge the local weather based on the cloud conditions, predict wind and rain, and the information is accurate The rate is not low.
Shen Tang will rationally allocate the national transportation needed to various places based on the annual rainfall in Kang State. Areas with water shortages can replenish more water, and areas with abundant water can reduce it... This ensures that all parts of Kang State can have a good harvest. A good harvest of food, and a good harvest for the national treasury. It can also be filled.
Today's Taishi Bureau cannot do without Qin Li.
And Qin Li?
He also didn't expect that his skills as a scribe could be used in this way.
_(:з ∠)_
When I got busy, I forgot that I still have a etiquette department to take care of.
Shen Tang was so active that he led the officials straight to Jinli County in Kunzhou. Worrying about arousing suspicion, they all put on disguises and broke up into pieces and divided into several caravans to enter the country. Compared with the bustle in other states and counties in Kangguo, Kun The state is obviously much more depressed and deserted.
After walking along the official road for a long time, I couldn't see many people.
For some reason, as she got closer to Kunzhou, Shen Tang's face became gloomier. Except for the important ministers she relied on who could see some kindness, others were trembling in front of her, even breathing heavily.
Shen Tang is now pretending to be the daughter of a wealthy businessman who is in charge of the family.
Her long hair was combed in the style of a married woman, with a white flower pinned to her temples and a white hairband wrapped around her bun. As Shen Tang continued to promote female officials, many women among the people also plucked up the courage to walk out of the backyard, and some were helpless. The son's parents also gave up the idea of adoption and tried to train daughters to inherit, but most of them were married daughters.
Not many unmarried women were seen.
Last year, in order to show her determination to her parents, an unmarried girl arranged a ridiculous marriage for herself and married a rooster. She killed the rooster for a banquet that night and dressed up as a widow the next day.
Many unmarried women saw this and followed suit.
They did not marry the roosters, but skipped this step and pretended to be widowed women. When Shen Tang heard about this, he admired their courage, and unexpectedly it became a fashion. The people began to popularize "The king of the country saw it all" The widow's makeup that said yes...
Shen Tang: "..."
Who would believe it? The boomerang pierced me.
She looked at the rich face in the mirror that even the light make-up couldn't suppress, stroking her face and sighing: "Oh, this face looks like it has been through many battles, and has properly subdued temptation..."
When the officials saw her dressed like this, their expressions were as ugly as if they had eaten shit, and they just wanted to beg for a pair of eyes that they had never seen before.
Shen Tang coughed twice, holding his throat, and entered the state.
The disguised caravan stopped at the Jinli County Outer Station.
Shen Tang used the excuse of doing business to inquire about the market situation with others: "... the little girl runs a grain shop at home and wants to come here to collect grain... Alas, other places have either been booked by the big grain merchants early in the morning, or they have made arrangements with Wang Tingwang. After getting the deed...for my family's business, I had to travel far away to try my luck."
"If that's the case, you've come to the wrong place."
Shen Tang took out the broken silver and pushed it over: "Why did you say that?"
Someone looked around and saw that there was no servant. He touched the broken silver and said mysteriously: "The lady is a foreigner and doesn't know the local market. A strange thing happened a while ago. Thousands of ghosts crawled out of the cemetery and touched the silver pieces along the way. County government grain depot..."
Just as Shen Tang was about to ask, the person next to the man corrected him: "Hey, didn't you say hundreds of ghosts? How come it became thousands?"
The man said: "Is there a difference between hundreds and thousands? There were so many green lanterns that appeared that day. Did you count hundreds or thousands?"
Countless and dense!
I shudder just thinking about it.
Shen Tang raised his eyelids: "Underworld lantern? Have you seen it?"
The man said: "I saw it with my own eyes! Every one of those ghosts was crying and babbling. It was so scary to hear it!"
These ghosts came out of the cemetery, shouting something like "hungry" vaguely, gathered together and moved away the grain stored in the grain depot.
"Not only I have seen it, but many people have seen it."
