Wentang

Chapter 312 Domineering
"Report to the dean, all the prisoners have been captured." Su Dingfang came to report first.

"Thank you." Yue Shan nodded and said.

Su Dingfang stepped aside after returning the gift.

"Greetings to Yuehou." Tian Xuechen and Zhao Jingze stepped forward to pay their respects.

"Excuse me." Yue Shan just sat down like this and said, "You two should know each other, right?"

"The magistrate of Tian county is the parent official of Yanci county. I have admired him for a long time." Zhao Jingze complimented.

"I'm ashamed, brother Zhao is the model gentry in this county. I have long wanted to make friends but I was afraid of causing you trouble and never made it. Today I know that our hearts coincide with each other." Tian Xuechen also said kindly.

"Let's talk about it later, let's finish the business first." Yue Shan shook his head and interrupted the mutual flattery between the two, and said, "Let me point out the culprit first."

"Here." The two responded quickly.

Sometimes it is very refreshing to take revenge on the enemy and watch them miserable, and Tian Xuechen is in this mood at this time.He took the initiative to lead Yue Shan's horse to the side of the crowd, pointed to a few of them and said happily:

"This Wang Jingliang is the county magistrate of this county. He has been operating in Yanci County for more than ten years, and his roots are deep. Without him, my county magistrate's approval would not be able to get out of the county government."

"Ten years? Isn't the high-ranking officials of the imperial court rotated every three to five years? Why hasn't he moved for more than ten years?" Yue Shan asked suspiciously.

"Yue Hou didn't know something. Previously, due to the turmoil, the official administration was chaotic, and the examination of merit almost stopped. But when the dynasty was established... there were inevitably omissions in the examination of merit. However, after the sage ascended the throne, he rectified the chaos and quickly restored the administration of officials..." Tian Xuechen's words were vague in part People can't hear what to say.

But Yue Shan understood the overall meaning.

That is, the change of dynasty and officials was chaotic, and the merit examination system was only implemented in some areas, and most of them were forgotten.In a remote place like Dezhou, there are officials who have not been transferred for more than ten years.This is the case with Wang Xiancheng.

If you think about it, you will know how much power a county magistrate who has been operating locally for more than ten years has.When the county magistrate came, he only had time to rest.

Sure enough, Tian Xuechen immediately revealed one of his charges: "This county magistrate Wang is not only a capable person, but also a ruthless person. The previous two county magistrates died for no reason. If there is not Yuehou, I guess It won't be long before Tian will follow in their footsteps."

"Magistrate Tian, ​​don't spit blood on people, Mr. Wang works hard..." Wang Jingliang said coldly.After all, I have been the magistrate for more than ten years, knowing that fear is useless, the viciousness surged up instead.

However, before he finished speaking, "pia" fell on his head with another whip, interrupting his words.

It was Su Dingfang who hit the person, and he reprimanded him: "Who told you to talk? Shut up."

Wang Jingliang looked at him with a look of humiliation, and then looked at Yue Shan and Tian Xuechen, hating these people in his heart.

But he also knows that people are under the roof, and resistance will only result in greater humiliation.Simply close your eyes, and you will be blinded.He secretly felt ruthless in his heart, once he had a chance to get out of trouble, he would definitely make some people look good to him.

Seeing Wang Jingliang being whipped again, Tian Xuechen was overjoyed, if not for the wrong occasion, he would have looked up to the sky and laughed.

However, Zhao Jingze couldn't help but twitched in his heart. He finally saw with his own eyes how arrogant and overbearing the top nobles from the capital were.

A Miemen county magistrate who could easily destroy his Zhao family would be whipped if he said a word without permission.At this time, he finally believed the rumor that Yue Shan killed the magistrate of Bohai County if he disagreed with each other.

At the same time, I also feel scared for my younger brother Zhao Jingcheng. Fortunately...otherwise not only his brother will die, but also the end of the Zhao family can be imagined.

And those who were tied up, no matter they were about to beg for mercy, or they were always moaning, saw that Wang Jingliang had been whipped again, and immediately fell silent.

"This is the Chief Bookkeeper Ai Qingkun. He came here two years ago. He is Wang Jingliang's most loyal lackey and has done all kinds of bad things." Tian Xuechen continued to introduce.

"That group of river bandits was formed by him gathering a group of desperadoes." Zhao Jingze added.

This matter was written in the report materials he gave to Yue Shan before, but he was afraid that Yue Shan hadn't remembered it clearly, so he specially emphasized it at this time.

As a result, Ai Qingkun was so frightened that he almost peed his pants, and he immediately went limp.

"Qingshuihou, spare my life, Qingshuihou, spare my life. Wang County...Wang Jingliang forced me to do it. I... also ask Qingshuihou to give me a chance to pay for my crimes. I will do anything."

"Hmph, idiot." Wang Jingliang opened his eyes, first looked at him angrily, and then turned into sorrow and disdain.

"Put him alone and let him spit out all his crimes." Yue Shan ordered.

"Here." Su Dingfang waved his hand, and several hundred riders came and dragged Ai Qingkun out alone.

"This is county lieutenant Ye Bo, Wang Jingliang's most loyal lackey and minion..." Tian Xuechen pointed to more than a dozen people in succession, all of whom were Wang Jingliang's core helpers.

Seeing that Zhao Jingze didn't add anything, Yue Shan knew that what he said was right.

It can be seen that Tian Xuechen has not gained nothing in the past six months, at least he has smoothed out his interpersonal relationship.That's fine, it's easy to judge with someone you know well.

"You are the county magistrate of this county, so you should handle this case. I will be your backing, so feel free to try it boldly, and I will support you no matter who comes."

"Xie Yuehou trusts me, I... I will live up to my expectations." Tian Xuechen said gratefully.

At this time, a hundred riders came from the direction of the county seat, saying that they had already controlled the gate of Yanci County.Liu Rengui went to suppress the city, while Xi Junmai defended the city.

Yue Shan asked about the details, and was very satisfied when he learned that the city gate was taken down without bloodshed.

When he was preparing to take people back to the city, another rider came to report that General Sun Renshi had brought the navy to the pier outside the county seat.And also brought more than 30 river pirates.

At that moment, Yue Shan didn't say anything more, and led people directly to the county seat.This journey was very slow, and it took three times longer than when we came here.

By the time the group of people finally arrived at the gate of the city, it was already more than two quarters in the afternoon.The originally 'lively' street became deserted, but Yue Shan could feel that countless people were lying on the cracks of the door and watching them secretly.

Looking at the large open space at the gate of the city, Yue Shan stopped in his heart.

"Yuehou?" Tian Xuechen hurried over and asked.

"What do you think of setting up a high platform here as a temporary government office?" Yue Shan asked.

Tian Xuechen looked puzzled, unable to understand what Yue Shan was talking about.There is a government office in Yanci County, why build a temporary one at the gate of the city?

Yue Shan shook his head, complaining in his heart, aborigines are just aborigines, it is impossible to know the great power of Taizu's magic weapon.

"These people have done all kinds of bad things, and the people hate them to the bone. I'm afraid the people in the whole county want to witness it with their own eyes, but how big is the government office, and how many people can it accommodate? It's better not to put it here."

　Great snow, cool.

　　Just the power outages are annoying.There were so many people turning on the air conditioner that the transformers were on fire.
