The first forty-six chapters Shanjun generous gifts
&t>
"Is this... the reply given to me by Mr. Tai Ashan?"
Xun Shaoyu's face was as heavy as water, and he was sitting casually on a chair, tapping his fingers on the table beside him carelessly.
A square copper box was placed quietly on the table. The smell of blood gradually spread from the copper box.
"This is my Lord's wish, but I hope the County Lord will take it for granted." The envoy was wearing a long robe and had an ordinary face, but his demeanor and appearance showed his own general elegance.
"Slow look?"
Xun Shaoyu murmured softly, "How dare I really look at Tai Ajun's gift?"
He didn't even open the copper box, he just waved his hand.
One of the attendants stepped forward cautiously, holding the copper box, bowing and gradually retreating.
Xun Shaoyu was naturally aware of the bloody smell of the copper box.
In this case, it is no longer very important whether the copper box is opened or not.
"Tea……"
Xun Shaoyu raised his hand, and there were several beautiful maids serving tea. The fragrance of tea was faint and profound.
He stretched out his hand to salute and said, "I already know Tai Ajun's intention. I have to work hard to make this happen."
Anyone who can serve as an envoy from the town must be Tai Ajun's confidant and cannot be ignored easily.
Therefore, even if this messenger was lower in rank than him, Xun Shaoyu would not look down upon him in the slightest.
However, the envoy seemed to be extremely humble and bowed down to return the salute and said: "The little god has been promoted to the eighth rank. He dare not accept the courtesy of the county king. It would be a shame to the little god."
"Hahaha……"
Xun Shaoyu helped the envoy up and said, "The envoy is very polite!"
The messenger chuckled softly and said: "It's not surprising that there are many people paying homage... Since the little god has sent the heart of my family's master, the little god's mission has been completed and he will not stay any longer."
Xun Shaoyu said: "It's hard work for envoys to come and go."
"come……"
A number of famous maids filed in, each holding a sandalwood makeup box.
I saw that there were about seven or eight of these maids, all lined up in a row.
"This is?"
The envoy was stunned and looked at Xun Shaoyu in confusion.
These sandalwood cosmetic boxes have a strong scent of incense and aspiration. Each piece of Shinto talisman money is quietly lying on the red silk in the wooden box, and the money body is like a Taoist talisman.
The envoy only took a cursory look at these Shinto talisman coins and made some assumptions.
"At least tens of thousands of talisman money!"
You must know that as the hard currency of Shinto, talisman money is extremely powerful in purchasing.
Tens of thousands of talisman money is already an extremely considerable amount of money. It is not dispensable for the city god of a first-class county. It is almost all the harvest of a first-class county town.
"These are my return gifts."
He reached out and opened a sandalwood makeup box, revealing a dragon-tiger jade Ruyi mixed with incense and aspiration, flowing with a faint red light.
This gift can be described as extremely important!
Looking at the envoy's retreating figure, Xun Shaoyu smiled playfully.
"It is rare for a mere envoy to have such a valiant demeanor!"
He played with a pair of exquisite jade lions in his hands, and spoke highly of the messenger.
Although this pair of exquisite jade lions are not a return gift to Tai Ajun, they are of unimaginable value to ordinary eighth-grade gods.
However, being able to resist such temptation impressed Xun Shaoyu.
…………
Woo! Woo! Woo!
The horn sounded, and Xun Shaoyu walked steadily into the lobby.
The judges of the six divisions each stood aside, and the ten ghost generals occupied a corner.
The two generals, the cow demon and the horse demon, are the two generals who judge on the left and the right.
Dozens of clusters of white light swayed, gradually swaying and overflowing in the lobby of the City God's Mansion.
"See you, sir!"
When Xun Shaoyu took his seat, dozens of staff members bowed and bowed.
He spoke softly, with a certain energy: "Everyone, please excuse me."
This was the second time that Xun Shaoyu summoned his officials. Compared with the laziness of the first meeting, with the disaster of Changling Mountain ahead, the officials were still trembling with fear. How could they still have the courage to remain reserved in front of Xun Shaoyu.
"Here,"
The ministers responded respectfully and stood on both sides.
After all, Xun Shaoyu was so powerful that he could not allow his officials to walk on thin ice and be cautious.
"Fellow officials, how many public cases have been unfinished recently? Why don't you submit them together for everyone here to read?"
Xun Shaoyu put his hand on his chin and asked softly.
Judge Li immediately spoke and said: "I Dangyang is the county of Jinhua Prefecture, and I govern Jinhua. Although I dare not say that I will not pick up things during the day or close my house at night, the people's hearts are simple and it is a place of hundreds of virtues."
The affairs of this world are governed by the human world in the Yang world, and the divine Tao in the Yin world.
The county magistrates in the Yang Dynasty were all responsible for governing the prosperity of a county and nourishing a local area.
As for the gods in the underworld, most of them seek refuge from disasters for the incense people. They are supported and worshiped by the people of a certain area. They have the duty of suppressing ghosts and exorcising nightmares, and have the authority of heaven and earth at their side.
Shinto suppresses humanity, but gods are respected by the emperor!
"It is good to have nothing to do. It is the blessing of the people and our blessing to have nothing to do."
Xun Shaoyu lowered his eyelids and said calmly.
"The county king teaches by words and deeds, and the little god sheds tears of gratitude."
Several judges stood up and bowed to Xun Shaoyu.
Xun Shaoyu said indifferently: "Nothing is a blessing...I have always been willing to kill those who have no blessings."
When these words came out, all the staff members sitting there would not feel a slight tremor in their hearts.
I have some background and foundation, and I don't dare to reverse the momentum and contradict this evil star.
The county magistrate is not as good as the current governor, let alone someone like Xun Shaoyu, who has both the county magistrate and the current governor.
"The Chang Ling incident is now abuzz, and the city is full of uproar... This is not good!"
He decisively characterized this momentum and even showed his murderous intentions.
"Is there someone behind this who doesn't know how to cherish the blessings we have now, but instead wants to cause trouble?"
"Check, check hard!"
"Since it is a land of hundreds of virtuous people, how can it be indifferent to the wishes of the people?"
Xun Shaoyu's words were sonorous and powerful, and every word was resounding. The intimidating power made people dare not look directly at him, which added to the evil spirit.
"I am a land of hundreds of virtues, how can I tolerate evil things?"
"It must be a monster, a remnant of ghosts. It must be punished. It must be punished."
Judge Li responded decisively without any pause.
Judge Li's statement was far beyond Xun Shaoyu's expectations. Even some of his staff were puzzled.
As Judge Li, who is expected to compete for the position of county king, can he let go of his grudge so easily?
You must know that this is an opportunity for personal promotion, which is rare in three hundred years.
Moreover, the benefits of this practice are secondary. Adding another two hundred lifespans will not allow people to let go of their grudges easily.
But now, Li Bian seems to be dedicated to serving the public good. Seeing him talk eloquently and behave with dignity, even some old 'friends' can't tell whether this is true or false.
Xun Shaoyu said: "In this case, I will be responsible for the inspection and arrest."
"Here..."
Li Pang ignored the others' surprise and responded immediately.
Although Li Fan has shown some signs of thanking guests behind closed doors in the past few days, looking at him now, seeing how quickly he has changed, still makes people familiar with the matter secretly sigh.
It seems that Li Pan's position is stable!
And the position of the first judge is as stable as Mount Tai.
After all, any official would like to see such knowledge and knowledge.
The saying that a thousand catties of horse bones are worth buying is common to any world and any civilization.
Although the change in Li Pian's attitude was a bit abrupt, there were still some signs of a wise and self-protective move after many days of thanking guests behind closed doors.
"If a mantis' arms can't stop a car, how can a centipede shake a tree?"
Judge Li muttered silently in his heart: "If you take a step back, the sky will be brighter, and if you take a step further, you will die without a place to die. For the sake of my family, I must take this step back."
"I can't gamble, and I can't afford it!"
Li Pian clearly stood on Xun Shaoyu's side, which undoubtedly greatly strengthened Xun Shaoyu's authority.
The county king is the leader of the Shinto in the county, and with the first judge listening to his ears, Dangyang can be said to be the master of the word.
Xun Shaoyu looked at the changes in the attitudes of his subordinates, and he naturally knew the reason.
After all, the First Judge's power had been accumulated for hundreds of years, and he had no way of taking action at the moment.
But Judge Li's bowing his head undoubtedly meant that he took the initiative to put down this momentum.
Although Xun Shaoyu himself was confident that he could manage all the officials properly, there was no need to waste time and effort if he could save time and effort.
besides……
"The day before yesterday, Tai Ajun sent an envoy to give me a treasure."
Xun Shaoyu said quietly: "This treasure is indeed a rare treasure. No one in this county dares to specialize in this treasure. Today I am here in the lobby to appreciate this treasure with all the officials."
Tai Ajun!
This person's weight made many of his subordinates quite uneasy.
"When did Tai Ajun become so kind to the county prince?"
"The county monarch slaughtered all the living creatures in Changling Mountain. It is Tai Ajun who should be blamed. How could Tai Ajun send you such a rare treasure?"
This hidden truth makes the subordinates restless.
How did the God of Changling Mountain come to such a fatal calamity? None of the officials here know it, and none of them know it.
Tai Ajun is lucky enough not to harbor any resentment, so where did this treasure come from?
Xun Shaoyu raised his hand and said: "Send it here..."
A Yin official immediately stepped forward, holding a bronze niche box, and walked into the main hall.
"Here..." The Yin official raised the niche box above his head, with the intention of looking at it.
"This is?"
The faint smell of blood in this niche box is very conspicuous. Especially under the seal of a golden divine power, the blood inside does not dissipate for a long time.
"This is a rare treasure!"
Xun Shaoyu patted the top of the niche box, and the golden and red divine light flowed.
Click!
The niche box was opened wide, and a sudden gasp of air rang out in the center of the lobby.
"The God of Changling Mountain!"
Mixed with everyone's exclamations and disbelief.
A ferocious human head was sitting cross-legged between the niches and boxes. Its ferocious face was about to split open, as if it wanted to choose someone to devour.
Little bits of golden divine power rose up and coiled around the edge of the head, barely maintaining this level.
This Shinto practice all starts from the soul, and there is no real meaning of the physical body at all.
Generally, after their death, unless they have a special bloodline, they are directly transformed into the tiniest particles and scattered between heaven and earth.
Without the support of divine power, this star would not be able to sustain a breath at all, and would disperse into countless particles of sand.
"The God of Changling Mountain!"
Xun Shaoyu struck the final blow and shattered all the luck one by one.
"The God of Changling Mountain was treasonous and unethical, and he neglected his duties and responsibilities, which led to today's disaster. You should remember this lesson and don't make the same mistake again."
His "sincere words" are obviously very convincing.
Who wouldn't feel sad to see this mountain god end up like this due to a wrong step?
But at the same time, Xun Shaoyu's position as county king was already unbreakable.
Even if the county is dissatisfied, Xun Shaoyu can single-handedly suppress these objections unless Mr. Jin Shalom takes action himself.
However, if Mr. Jin Shalom interferes in the internal affairs of the Di Zhi, Xun Shaoyu will not be able to stop his ambitions, but there are several powerful people in the Di Zhi lineage who will never be stingy in teaching Mr. Jin Shalom to behave.
"We, please follow the instructions of the County Lord!"
"We, please follow the instructions of the county monarch!" The staff bowed down and paid homage.
Xun Shaoyu laughed it off and said, "It would be great if you all know my painstaking efforts..."
Only by truly taking charge of a county can he achieve his ambition.
The affairs of Yinsi and Shinto are all under his control, and no more troubles will arise.
What is left now is some of the dregs of Yangshi, which he needs to clean up.
…………
Dangyang County Government Office,
Twenty to thirty officials stood in the county government hall, holding water and fire sticks, and the atmosphere was solemn.
As the county magistrate, Master Xu was dressed in a seventh-grade official robe, with a ribbon around his waist wrapped with tiger-shaped gold buttons, and a pair of official boots, with a slightly impatient expression.
A young man dressed as a master walked into the courtroom quickly and shouted: "Master, master, the affairs of the Liu family... are settled!"
The master's words instantly dispersed the tense atmosphere in the courtroom.
Some of the court officials quietly drew their swords when the Master suddenly entered the court, but they had murderous intentions without knowing it.
It was only the master's shout that made the gentlemen breathe a sigh of relief, and put the sword back into its sheath.
"Is the Liu family moved?"
The county magistrate was so happy that he almost danced.
The master was cheerful and said: "Yes, yes... Master, the students have really seen it. The movements of the Liu family's soldiers are unknown. It seems that they are going to make some move."
"Okay, okay... As long as he moves, I will let him kill the whole family."
"Hahaha..." The county magistrate seemed to have been suppressed for a long time, and once he got the opportunity, he almost went wild.
The master frowned and advised: "My lord, please bear with me for a while. After all, the Liu family has been rich for generations. The three great families in Dangyang have many eyes and ears, and they can dominate this county."
"Although there is a chance to eliminate the serious trouble now, the success will fall short. We must be on guard and be prepared!"
The county magistrate suppressed his smile, forced himself to be solemn, and said: "What you said makes sense, but this county has lost its composure."
The three families of Wang, Ji, and Liu are all county households, and their powers are complicated. To understand them clearly will not be achieved in a day and a moment.
Of course, these three families have become toothless tigers because they have lost their backers.
However, as the prestige accumulated over time, the county offices were still controlled by three families.
The authority of the county magistrate does not exist in the court, and only some desperate servants can listen to it.
Such an official has been suppressed so miserably for almost ten years.
It’s no wonder that when visiting wealthy families, the two parties would hit it off immediately and immediately lay out a plan to kill them.
This is Master Xu's last-ditch battle. If it succeeds, he will have all the power, but if he fails, everything will be in vain.
