One night, Hu Qiu, the prefect of Luntai Mansion in the Western Regions of the British Dynasty, received a secret letter.This letter was sent by his immediate boss, Wang Wenyuan, the governor of the Western Regions Province, by starry night.After he finished reading it, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.It turned out that Li Lu, the Supreme of Great Braiding, wanted to tour the holy land of the Grassland Road to Tianchi Peak (that is, the original Bogda Peak), and Wang Wenyuan secretly ordered him to make arrangements as soon as possible, so that there must be no mistakes.It stands to reason that the emperor's visit was a decent thing, but why did he let the dignified governor secretly deliver a letter?
And let the dignified prefect sit on pins and needles?
This is all because last year, the Luntai Mansion of the Western Regions Province suffered a rare snowstorm that has not been encountered in a century, and Li Lu specially allocated a large amount of disaster relief funds.Wang Wenyuan and Hu Qiu knew that Li Lu was using the excuse of the eastern expedition to the Tianshan Mountain this time to see how the disaster relief funds were being spent.So, where did this large amount of disaster relief money go?
In addition to the symbolic money received by the people, the bulk of the disaster relief money went into the pockets of a group of officials represented by Wang Wenyuan and Hu Qiu early!
Although the people received a sum of money, it was much less than they should have received.Hu Qiu's heart was empty, and he called his staff who had been recruited in violation of regulations overnight to discuss countermeasures.When the staff heard this, they stroked their beards and said with a smile: "The emperor will not leave him for a moment, and no one can see the flaws, why is the palace like this?"
”But Hu Qiu shook his head and said: "You don't know, our emperor, whenever he goes to a place and sees those Qianshou people, he likes to summon a few of them to inquire about the suffering and local political situation, which is called 'watching politics and the opposition'."
I don't think I can cover up this disaster relief fund. ”Who knew that the staff was refreshed and took a sip of tea and said, "This is not easy to do?"
The emperor ascended to the peak of Tianchi, and he must have lived in the Qingluan Pavilion at the foot of the mountain.We just need to be like this......"
Then, he whispered in Hu Qiu's ear, saying that he had learned that Fu nodded again and again.Suddenly, Hu Qiu asked, "But where can I find this person?"
”I only heard the staff reply: "You can rest assured, I know the candidates!"
”Early the next morning, Hu Qiu came to Qingluan Pavilion, only to see that the staff had brought a group of people to wait in front of the palace early.He looked at it and saw that these people were all dressed in coarse cloth, and the middle-aged man led by him was dark-skinned, with a big waist and round shoulders, and he was full of spirit.Hu Qiu couldn't help but nodded, and listened to the staff say: "Fuzun, this is the most famous troupe in our Luntai Mansion."
This is the class owner 'Zhou Tietou', they also acted and sang songs for the old queen mother in their early years, but they can be regarded as having seen the world, and now it is a piece of cake to pretend to be a farmer!
”After saying that, the staff instructed the gang to pretend to be farmers and walked around, Hu Qiu looked, hey, it's really like it!
After the troupe retreated, Hu Qiu couldn't help but sigh: "There are indeed two hits."
It's just, are these people reliable?
What if they meet the emperor and they don't follow the routine we gave?
”The staff patted their chests and said, "This is easy to do!"
The troupe is all dragging their families, and when they are welcome, they take their families to the palace, eat and drink well, wait for a few days, and enjoy a few days of Qingfu, Zhou Tietou still dare to play tricks in front of the emperor?
”At this time, Hu Qiu's face was all gone!
Not long after, Li Lu drove to Tianchi Peak, and sure enough, he lived in Qingluan Pavilion, and Wang Wenyuan led officials at all levels to bow down.As a local magistrate, Hu Qiu also had the honor to accompany him.After the ceremony, Li Luduan sat on the terrace of Qingluan Pavilion and listened to the play for a while.After a while, suddenly from outside the attic, there was a burst of singing of farmers shouting cattle for spring ploughing.The cow sang high-pitched and rough, but also tactful and long, even more beautiful than those actors on the stage!
Li Lu heard it well, and unconsciously got up and looked out, only to see that there were seven or eight farmhouses on the side of the green field not far away, the men were plowing the fields and fertilizing, and the women were serving tea and food.Li Lu was interested, so he ordered left and right: "Go and bring the farmer who is ploughing the field here, I have something to ask!"
”In a short time, the family was taken out onto the terrace.Needless to say, these people were all put together by the troupe last time, and it was Zhou Tietou who started with it.They are drama in the end, and when they salute, those clumsy, frightened and respectful expressions, as well as the vulgar village dialect, are all handled just right, and at first glance they are simple and honest country people.Especially the "old farmer" who is the head of the family, a "little old man", has questions and answers with Li Lu, which makes Li Lu feel good.Naturally, in the words of the "old peasant", Wang Wenyuan and Hu Qiu are all Qing officials who are loyal to the monarch and love the people, and work hard.When the questions were almost asked, everyone was about to breathe a sigh of relief.Unexpectedly, at this time, Li Lu's face suddenly turned pale, and he asked in an aggravated tone: "You old peasant, I ask you, have you ever done something bad that violates the law of the country?"
Not beat around the bush!
”When Wang Wenyuan heard this, his face immediately turned white with fright.Zhou Tietou was also stunned at first, but he immediately understood: Li Lu was making fun of himself, an "old farmer"!
He pretended to be cowardly, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said, "Nothing can be hidden from Your Majesty's eyes!"
Little old man......
Done bad things.When I didn't work in winter, I walked through the village and alleys to tell fortunes for people, how much money I got from others, cut a few catties of pork and went home to give my wife and children old snacks......"
At this time, Li Lu couldn't help laughing, all the civil and military officials were serious and submissive in front of him, far less real and interesting than this old farmer, and made himself happy!
He pointed to the hundred officials and said, "Then you will meet them today and see if there are any traitors among them."
Agreed, I forgive your sins. ”When Zhou Tietou heard this, his face turned white with fright, and he actually "pounced" and knelt on the ground again: "Your Majesty, little old man......
Little old man doesn't dare!
”Li Lu asked, "Why?"
”Zhou Tietou replied with a panicked face: "When the little old man meets, he always asks about people's birthdays.But now, how dare you ask the names and birthdays of the officials?
This......
What a mess!
”Oh, this old farmer is quite polite and obedient, Li Lu has the heart to see his good show, and waved his hand to the guard on the side and said: "Take the blank holy decree and let him meet each other in accordance with the decree!"
”With the Holy Purpose in hand, Zhou Tietou was bold, he blinked, kowtowed to Li Lu, changed his personality, cleared his throat, and shouted, "Thank you, Lord Longen!"
”He stood up, crossed his sleeves and shook them fiercely, turned around and stepped in front of Baiguan.This move frightened Li Lu for a moment!
Wang Wenyuan and Hu Qiu understood that this was to please the emperor, so they all truthfully reported their names, official positions and birthdays.Zhou Tietou acted very seriously in this play, and gaged with hundreds of officials, he grabbed the official robe of the civil official, said that it was a "flower arrow suit", and pulled the armor of the military general, and asked how heavy this "long reliance" was, and whether it could turn his head.The officials were afraid that this "little old man" would turn him into a traitor, so not only did he not dare to be angry, but he also smiled.Zhou Tietou saw that these officials and old men were majestic on weekdays, but now they were trembling one by one, and he was simply happy.After a while, he replied to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the whole dynasty is full of loyal ministers!"
”"Yo, how do you know?"
Li Lu asked with a smile., are all great loyal ministers?
Li Lucai didn't believe it.Zhou Tietou pointed to the stage and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Xiao Lao'er knows the rules of singing, Zhao Gao, Dong Zhuo, these big traitors are all white as snow when they appear, and today Xiao Lao'er saw that none of the emperor's ministers were white-faced, so he knew that they were all loyal ministers!"
”Li Lu couldn't help but laugh again when he heard this, this little old man was so funny, and the hundred officials who had a false alarm also laughed.At this time, the gongs and drums on the stage were beating tightly, and another show was about to end.A guard walked up to Li Lu and whispered to Li Lu that lunch was ready and it was time to eat, so Li Lu ordered the guard to bring 500 dollars and reward it to the "old farmer" family to show his imperial grace.Zhou Tietou thanked him, took two steps back, and suddenly stepped forward and knelt down again: "Your Majesty, Xiao Lao'er finally found a big traitor today, don't dare not say it!"
”Li Lu was extremely surprised: "Where is the traitor?"
”When the accompanying officials heard this, they turned pale with fright and didn't know why.In front of everyone's eyes, Zhou Tietou pointed to the drumming master on the side of the stage and said: "The traitor is him, he stole a walnut from His Majesty, he is really greedy!"

”Before he finished speaking, the drumming master on the stage was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty spare your life, the little one is afraid that it will delay your meal, so I beat one less walnut." ”It turned out that at the end of this play, the drum set that should be played according to the routine is called "double walnut".Today, this drummer is lazy, and he only played a single one, and Zhou Tietou was pulled out all at once.The officials laughed again, but Li Lu was stunned for a moment this time, and instead of laughing, he grabbed the two walnuts on the case in front of him in his hands and kept spinning them......
After Li Lu returned to Broken Leaf after the sacrifice of Tianchi Peak, he soon sent the minister of Qin to Luntai Mansion.Wang Wenyuan couldn't help but be overjoyed at first, thinking that he was going to be promoted, but unexpectedly, as soon as the minister read the holy decree, he was full of words denouncing him for corruption and bringing disaster to the country and the people, and removed him from his post and investigated him!
Wang Wenyuan was blinded: What went wrong?
I only heard Qin Cha sneer, and sneered: "Do you remember the old farmer that the emperor summoned in Qingluan Pavilion last time?"
It was he who played your brother's book on the spot, but it's ridiculous that you're still in the dark!
”It turned out that Zhou Tietou was forced to play a farmer to fool Li Lu that day, not to mention the fire in his heart.Unexpectedly, Li Lu made a difference to let him meet with hundreds of officials, he couldn't help but muster up his courage, and temporarily and skillfully told Li Lu the truth: when he received the holy decree, he recited it with a full charm, and when he shook his sleeves, he used water sleeve kung fu!
What kind of "flower arrow clothes", "long reliance" and the like when he met with the order are all special words for drama, and in the end, when thanking him, he testified that the drummer stole walnuts, which can be called the finishing touch, Li Lu because of the relationship between his mother Xiao Yan, and also knows the way of opera, Zhou Tietou's series of performances and unique skills made him understand that Wang Wenyuan, a group of dog officials, is all acting to fool himself!
So without waiting for Tianchi Peak, Li Lu sent people to visit all over the place......
In this way, the Luntai disaster relief corruption case was finally revealed, Wang Wenyuan, Hu Qiu and other corrupt officials were beheaded, and even the staff who thought he was smart was exiled to Afiliga for the "crime of bullying the king"."
The road to anti-corruption and clean government is a long way to go......."
Li Lu sighed when he saw the report on the Luntai disaster relief and corruption case.
