Great Tang Idyll - Chapter 1166
[Chapter 791 Ability and Integrity are Different]
A gust of wind blew, Xiao Bei shivered, looked at the earth wall in front of him through the gap in the crowd, and said, “Go first, it’s windy outside, and the tent blew loudly last night, so I didn’t sleep well. www. .)”
“The girl is tired.” The old man who stood up earlier said distressedly.
“It’s not me, it’s the other people in the team, go in and arrange a place for them to sleep, go.” Xiao Bei walked forward first as he spoke.
With Gongsun Moyu by his side, Wang Chang’s status as a county magistrate could not be manifested at all, he could only follow a few steps behind, afraid and aggrieved.
Hearing Xiao Bei’s words, he turned his head and murmured, “Didn’t you say that the servants of Zhang Wang’s family and the guards are number one in the entire Tang Dynasty, hurrying on the road, the wind will be tiring?”
“What are you talking about, what are you talking about ?
I’m most annoyed when others speak ill of people behind their backs, what’s wrong with elites? Elites are also human, and they don’t need high-intensity anti-fatigue in normal times, or you mean to tell us that in Wenshan County, our people need to maintain the same state of vigilance , are you worried about yourself or the people in the county?”
Xiaobei turned around and asked Wang Chang.
Before Wang Chang could differentiate, the surrounding locals stared at him with indignant eyes, looking like they wanted to tear him apart.
A slightly older old woman with a face all around her hand leaned on a stick made of wood she didn’t know what to do. She slammed on the ground twice, squinting at Wang Chang and said in a hateful voice, “It’s not good to be a county magistrate for useless things. The bad guys don’t know that Xiaobei and the others are here in a hurry. Who can harm them in the county, and if someone really dares to do bad things, we have to dig three feet into the ground to find them, just like Xunyang.”
Listen to the old lady.
If you say it, you can clearly say what is next. A group of little guys was almost bombed by a gunpowder boat in Xunyang on the Yangtze River.
Depending on how fast other messages are delivered, I don’t know, but this message is delivered very fast, even in the remote mountains.
Wang Chang opened his mouth, but didn’t say a word, for fear of causing a siege, he lowered his head and continued to be wronged.
Xiao Bei sighed, shook his head and walked forward.
Knowing that Wang Chang is depressed, not all local officials are as capable as Gongsun Moyu, and their abilities are limited.
Most of them are maintenance, especially those in remote areas. The ethnic groups are grouped together, and they cannot come up with a short-term effective plan to get rich with less effort.
All others resist.
As long as the local people can continue to live without rebelling, it is a good official for the imperial court. As for the hope of making the local people rich, it is impossible for a competent official to do so.
It is said that the county magistrate Wang Chang was right.
Unless he is found to be greedy for ink, taking bribes, using power for personal gain,
or oppressing the people, even if he spends money in the wrong place or does wrong things with good intentions, his sins cannot be cured.
Of course, if he really commits the other crimes, even if he is greedy for a hundred pennies, the crime is not trivial.
I thought to myself.
Xiao Bei looked at Gongsun Mo Yu who was following him.
Thinking that the life of the local people is better, and the county’s financial revenue has doubled, it is no problem for him to be greedy for more than a hundred dollars.
There is no such thing as fairness and justice in this world.
“Old man, I want to ask you something.” Xiaobei suddenly asked the old man next to him.
“Don’t say one, girl, I will answer any questions you ask. I know everything.” The old man said happily.
Wang Chang said abruptly, “You know everything you can say, you can say everything.”
“Shut up. You know? You know how to lead us to live a good life?”
Now I am not afraid, it is estimated that the county magistrate will not be long.
Even if he continues to be the one, he is not afraid, not to mention the county magistrate, the prefect of the state still dares to scold him in the face of several people who have done something wrong.
Do you still have the courage to take revenge?
You try, today you retaliate, tomorrow someone will raid your home.
Retaliation for the affairs of Xiaobei and several others is to prevent the people from speaking to the emperor.
If the road to advance is not smooth, it will be difficult for the country to pass through. What kind of sin do you say you are?
Wang Chang seemed to have thought of this too, so he didn’t even dare to have an angry look at the old man’s reprimand.
“Old man, don’t worry about him, let me ask, do you like an official who is not greedy or occupying, but who is dedicated to the people but can’t make your life better, or you like to be very smart, and you can make your life a lot better with just a little energy. Ten times, but officials who will embezzle some of the money?”
Xiaobei asked, this topic has always been right and wrong.
The old man was suddenly stopped, and it was not until the team entered the range of the earthen wall that he slapped his mouth and said: “As I said, it depends on the place. For example, we in Wenshan, we can’t eat meat twice a year, and we finally have to be on the mountain. If you hunt something, you have to make dry meat, and take it outside and replace it with oil and salt.
When it’s green and yellow, wild vegetables are a good thing, and grass roots and bark are also good when you’re hungry. You can’t eat his flesh and drink his blood. If it’s Gongsun boy, he’ll be greedy for another year or two according to his method. He can’t be greedy if he wants. It’s not easy for him. The human heart is full of flesh, and we hope that he will be comfortable. Someone from above really came to check. I don’t know anyone else. I will help and speak
. If you have money, you usually don’t lack anything. Your job as an official is to help maintain and maintain. Why are you greedy. When you greedy the money that should be used in the county, what will others use it? You people in Sanshui County are not greedy, right? ”
Dare? Lend them a hundred guts, and I will let them live and earn money. Hehe, in fact, there are no officials in my family who can be greedy. The money that you greedy is not as much as the money you get after doing things well. The eyes of the people are sharp. Ground. Uncle, do you think Wang Chang is a magistrate of greed?”
Xiaobei seemed to understand a question, and led the topic to Wang Chang again.
Wang Chang instantly felt that the cold winter was coming, and it came when he was standing on the top of the Minshan Mountain. If you really want to say that you are greedy, you will add five more crimes, and there is no problem with directly killing your head.
“I’m not greedy.” Thinking of his head, Wang Chang shouted at the top of his voice.
Xiaobei said lightly: “There is no reason to be loud.”
“I’m really not greedy, look, you all, look at my clothes.” Wang Chang continued to shout, and while speaking, he lifted up his official uniform outside to reveal the inner lining, which was still made of good fabric. Yes
, the big boy and the little boy came over and reached out to touch, looked at each other, nodded, and the little boy said,
“Second-class brocade in Shu, with fine stitches and silky silk, the only drawback is that the embroidery workmanship is slightly worse, the first-class top-quality is much better, such as… …For example, Xiaoxian’s inner lining, Xiaoxian came over and let everyone see.” The
little man thought that what he and others were wearing was not Shu brocade, but fine cotton, so he had to call the maid over and lift the outer jacket to reveal the inner lining.
son.
He said to the people around him, “This is a top-grade Shu brocade. Magistrate Wang’s clothes are worth five thousand dollars, but they look like they’ve been worn for a while. They’ve been patched, and their stomachs are about to break.”
“Thank you, thank you, good man.” Wang Chang, who was relieved, said gratefully.
At the same time, I glanced at the maid Xiaoxian enviously. A maid dresses better than me. You gang of troublemakers, why don’t you say that a maid dresses well?
Of course, the troublemakers don’t care how well the maids of Zhang Wang’s family dress well, the inner courtyard of Zhang Wang’s family has long been a legend.
It is said that any one of them can be a good local official. Half of the officials in the entire Tang Dynasty suddenly died, and there is no problem with the inner courtyard of the two houses, and the decree is still smooth.
What the trolls cared about was whether the magistrate Wang Chang was acting or not, so they stepped forward to touch the clothes of magistrate Wang and left various handprints on them.
Wang Chang’s heart twitched when he was touched, he gritted his teeth stiffly, it was just a piece of clothing.
Better than losing your life.
“The patch is not new.” Someone finally came to a conclusion.
“No.” Someone echoed.
“It’s been worn for years.”
“A few threads here are bad.”
The county magistrate Wang, who was almost collapsed from being touched, suddenly felt that there were still many good people in the county.
The old lady who was the first to speak just now, don’t look at her wrinkled face now, count her twenty years forward, she is definitely a beauty.
There are also black and black handprints, saying that a few little boys and girls who have grown up are guaranteed to be pillars.
Can easily get a champion, or the kind of Jinshi.
Xiao Bei and the nine little guys were also puzzled.
The heads huddled together and muttered for a while, then turned back.
Xiaobei asked: “Wang Chang, you don’t deliberately wear a ragged clothes to deal with us, right? I’ll put it here, if you really do something wrong, just say it directly, as long as it doesn’t kill someone, or If your
wife and son are separated, we will not pursue you further.
However, if you dare to deceive us, you will hope that the investigation methods of our Zhang and Wang families will not work. Once we find out, the police will be erected on Zhuque Street in Chang’an, the capital. Dozens of people will have multiple partners. The original Hongnong county magistrate Yan Zheng’s family is dead, but he is still alive.”
Xiaobei began to frighten Wang Chang. I came back, and then arranged it to another place, but outsiders didn’t know it, and they thought that the whole family had been hacked.
The reason why Yan Zheng lived so tenaciously was that he knew that his family was still there. During the Chinese New Year, his younger daughter came to visit him once. He sat in the car and raised the curtains to watch, and he also saw that he was pregnant when he was arrested. The son that his wife held to show him.
Then he needs to cooperate and shout to every passing official, weather the wind, sun and rain, and he will be able to be reunited with his family if he does not die in 20 years.
Although he knew that he might not last for 20 years, he was willing to do it. It was enough to see his family every year.
Most of the others were caught in the last scam and religious incident, and only a few were officials elsewhere.
For them, death is a kind of mercy, they have to live and let the other officials see how their bodies are gradually decaying. They treated, watching their various reactions after Xin was about to stab them.
Wang Chang had seen it before, when he followed other local officials back to Beijing during the Chinese New Year to discuss how to support Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan in their westward expedition this year.
The capital was colder than Wenshan, and one of the officials who was arrested had a frozen leg.
Then the person who was arranged to see the medical school explained to the apprentices how to deal with it on the spot.
At that time, the official’s legs were already black, and there were frostbites that bulged out and broke, and then someone poured boiling water on them to record the skin reaction when they were suddenly heated after the frostbite.
In the end, the leg was sawed off, and a few more injections were given to the newly developed drug.
Before returning to Wenshan, I saw the man again, and found that he was not dead, which means that life is a hard medicine, and the people of the medical school are highly skilled in medicine.
But no matter what, he never expected to experience the superb medical skills of the medical school in person on Suzaku Street.
Thinking of this, Wang Chang swallowed his saliva and said, “Clothes are definitely not pretentious. I don’t usually do bad things.”
“Then why are you fat and white, and Gongsun Moyu is black and thin?” Xiaobei asked. The skin tone and body shape of the other person.
To be continued.
